    Having bought an eReader a few months ago I've discovered a huge variance in the quality of free / cheap eBooks. Many writers show talent, but little aptitude for grammar or spelling, or even limited knowledge of a dictionary. I'd have to disagree with the reviewer who criticised the poor editing of this book, although it may have been improved since her reading of it. I've spent a lot of time muttering about lack of understanding of tenses, punctuation or even the meaning of words, but in this book my reaction was focused on the characters - how could they do that? How could they keep thinking that? Were they blind? Or just stupid? To me, the sign of a good book is when it evokes emotion, makes you care about the characters and what happens to them, and I very rarely give 5 stars. I loved this book, and look forward to reading more from this author.

    Confused - I thought this was a book, but only appeared to be sample chapters. What's there is fairly well written, but there's no middle or end, just a beginning. It would be good if this was only a sample as I would like to read the full story, unfortunately it just stops without any explanation. I'm giving 3 stars for what's there, treating it as a teaser only, as it would be unfair to mark it as a book.

    This was a sweet little story, fairly well written, but would be interested to see this author tackle a full length novel.
