This author really struggles with tense shifts from past to present and back again, sometimes within a single sentence. Pick a tense and stick with it!!! She also uses the word "spat" a lot. Her characters are spitting out words, but instead of doing it in present tense, they do so in past tense. My most giggly error was when one of her characters was described as "concentrated" (how can a person be concentrated?), and one character "sprayed" across a other instead of "splayed," and in another place, the word "grunt" is used instead of "brunt" (as in "he took the grunt of the pressure"), so basic English grammar would really help to increase credibility of this book. A careful editor or attention to grammar would really help.Aside from grammar, it's your basic romance with tons of sex. That part was hot and descriptive, but I found myself distracted by the grammar. The dialogue is so-so; cliched and attempts to be funny, but nowhere near as original or snappy as Alice Clayton (to which some have compared this series).And the characters somehow devolve into high school drama. They don't act like adults. The main character ends up overreacting and slapping her love interest 3-4 times that I can think of. Who does that, outside of soap operas? Like a for real slap just because she misunderstands something? She's like a fifteen year old sometimes.This was free on Kindle so I didn't lose anything to read it except a few hours of my time, but it was a hoot to find errors and read about such dramatic people.
