`Ahoy, their Daddy, how's the birthday boy?' (Ahoy there, Daddy, how's the birthday boy?)
`Oh, and Ricky, see to it your back on set by one on the dot.' (you're)
`The fisherman are hauling their boats right up the beach' (fishermen)
`Whilst walking down the winding path er thoughts kept turning full circle' (her)
'Yee Gods' (Ye)
'Clothes-hangar' (Someone must have a lot of clothes to fill a hangar...clothes hanger.)
'Gratis a quickie divorce' (Check you know your Latin before using it. Gratis means `free' not 'thanks to')
And these are only a drop in the very large ocean of errors in this book. I'm wondering whether this book should have been titled `Stalker in Paradise--Draft Edition'.
Unfortunately, it wasn't well written, the characters were cardboard and one-dimensional, not credible or even likeable. The dialogue was wooden and unnatural, and there was an odd choice of words for a modern chick lit--who uses 'in a thrice' or 'betwixt' or 'visage' these days?
Why did I finish it? Because I always finish a book, and more often than not I have been rewarded for my determination. I hoped...desperately...that this would be the case in this book, but sadly it just didn't happen.
I always try to find something good to say about a book, however bad, but this one has me truly stumped, and all I can do is commend the author for making an effort.
Sorry, it's a thumbs down for this book.
