review 1: It was a nice book to read. Right now, I'm reading some dense books and I was looking for something light for a change. And this story between a rural dentist and an urban writer did that well.Unlike other reviewers, I had no complaint with the pace of the story, but I'm not a big romance/Harlequin reader so I can't really compare.One thing though, there was some typos here and there. For once, they seem to be due to mistyped words (e.g. Dottie becomes Dotty by the end of the story), not the writer's lack of spelling or grammar knowledge. How refreshing!
review 2: First off whose Dorothy? I don't remember where this name was brought up but it happened. I've read lots of books with poor editing but when a name is mentioned, that's no where else in the book then,
... more yeah...haha So many problems in this one, mostly with words missing. And to think maybe the author did it on purpose for some strange reason because it happened in the very last sentence of the story too. I didn't think this story was too bad. Nothing exciting or anything though, so no real surprises. A few things that caught my attention:1. Griff doesn't want kids, Junior does. They have sex the first time with no protection. The second time around, Griff actually grabs for a condom. Honestly what's the point in their situation? They've already had sex to begin with. And it's not like Junior was forcing him to hang around to be a father. I didn't get that part. 2. I've read lots of books where the main character has issues with a parent. In this one, Griff has a problem with both, seems more to be with his Mother though. In these situations, why does the 'child' bother going to visit them or go to family events? I mean, maybe it's just me, I don't know. I know I wouldn't have bothered putting myself through their crap.3. Why does Junior bring up Griff's good memory regarding their first night together? Griff's Mother was a bitch to her but seriously? Talking about sex? I just don't understand all the bad reviews on this book. less
