Review: Good story but lacking that spark

I did like the premise of this story a lot, as I am a sucker for finding true love and second chances and soul mates and a touch of paranormal and happy endings, etc.  This book has all of those but it was written in my least favorite form of writing, first person.  We see the story through Aubrey's thoughts only.  The only way I somewhat enjoy a first person story is if it goes back and forth between the main characters.  In this book we only hear Aubrey's POV, and I would have really loved to hear Gavin's POV.  It was a bit wordy in places and I skimmed over some of the book as character and location descriptions were rather verbose at times.  But overall it was an enjoyable read once I got into the story, which took quite awhile.  I was just about ready to give up on it when Matt's ghost appeared so I stuck with it to the end, but it did get off to a very, very slow start.  I picked it up for free and am glad I didn't pay for it.  So I guess overall it's an OK book with it being neither spectacular nor terrible.  I will give kudos, however, to author Rosary McQuestion, for her amazing imagination in writing this book, not so much for the premise of the story which isn't anything terribly new, but some of the exploits Aubrey found herself in.  There were lots of chuckles while reading this book.
