Once Written, Twice Shy is about Paxton and Alissa's relationship. They fall in love when they finally meet in person after communicating over the internet for 10 months.  Paxton has a heartless ex-wife, Julie, who won't sign the divorce papers and just didn't want to let go, which is making his life miserable.  Alissa is a very kind and giving woman who makes both Paxton and his son, Jasper, very happy.This is so well written that you can easily picture the people and places described. The characters are also really well described. Paxton is a very nice man and a wonderful father.  His only negative is not putting his foot down to his ex-wife and forcing her to sign the divorce papers because he doesn't want to upset his son by fighting with his mother. Alissa is almost too good to be true. She is quite intelligent but in a subtle way and will do absolutely anything for the people she cares about.  Jasper is a cute 4 year old that plays a big part in this story as well as adding to it in smaller ways throughout. He is part of a heart wrenching situation that is hard to deal with but had me routing for a good out come.I won this book in a giveaway and must admit that it was not what I expected. While I am not a fan of erotica, the sex scenes were very detailed and hot but not vulgar. I just skimmed over some of the sex scenes because I thought they were boring after awhile. I found the way Paxton and Alissa were constantly wanting each other was a bit unbelievable.I had a very hard time rating this book and thought it was a 3 star but then I realized that I was being prejudiced because I don't care for this genre. So I am giving it a 4 star because it really is well written with a great story line. And, bonus!, it didn't have many editing errors!I would recommend this book to fans of erotica.
