Noah is a Navy seal war hero coming home to the Georgia peach plantation he was raised on to recover from losing his leg in war. His heart was stolen by Mikayla the moment they met under a peach tree where she was stealing peaches off his parent's property. Can she help him heal from his injuries and give him something worth fighting for? Join Mikayla and Noah on a whimsical journey of love, passion and the discovery of what they were truly meant to do with their lives. Sit back and enjoy their playful banter and intense loving while they show the town of Sugar Creek what it really means to have a heart of gold. Não foram encontradas descrições de bibliotecas. |

My primary issue with this book is the number of spelling, punctuation, and grammar errors that plagued it throughout. Curiously, the author lists an editor in the credits (and also in the notes for the book)--I can only imagine that this "editor" does not do this for a living, given the "draft" feel of the final, published product. Obvious errors, such as using "too" instead of "to," could be found constantly in the text. Comma splices and misuses of semi-colons were rampant. It was incredibly distracting. My rating for the book would have been four stars had it been error-free (or, at least, had the amount of errors not been so abundant). The fact that the author at least attempted to have the text proofed by someone made me give it three stars instead of two (a rating the amount of errors in the book, in my opinion, warranted).
This is mostly just personal preference, but I found the use of pet names in the story extremely overdone. There were at least two or three on every page of the book ("Romeo" and "babydoll" are the two frontrunners), and it was VERY distracting; it almost took over the dialogue. I also found it a little disconcerting that the main character's older brother called her "babydoll"--a name which her significant other also uses. It stuck out as more than a little odd.
Final opinion: The story would benefit greatly from a thorough, extensive line edit--were the author to invest in a professional editor, this would be a good story that I would recommend to lovers of the romance genre. As it stands now, though, it's more of a plodding read struggling under its own errors. ( )
