review 1: 3 and 1/2.I liked the story about Dubose Heyward (author of Porgy, from which the play Porgy and Bess was born) and his wife, Dorothy (his muse), or the brains behind Porgy, as this book strongly suggested. The chapters flipped from Cate, present day living in the cottage on Folly Beach that the Heyward's lived in, to scenes from a play about the Heywards. At times, it seemed liked Dorothy Heyward was channeling to present-day Cate. It was interesting to read a novel that also had facts (some with liberties, perhaps) about real people of by-gone days.
review 2: I found myself with limited options on the available ebooks to borrow from the library, and chose this. I've read a few from this author, and have liked them well enough that this seemed to do while I w... moreaited for some holds to come in. It was painful to get through, and quite amazing that I did. Formulaic, yes. That doesn't bother me, as many of my favorite authors are. But the dialogue and situations of this story will have you rolling your eyes at every page. Don't waste your time with this book. If there were a zero star option, that would be my rating. less
