I'm torn on this one, because it does sound interesting, but I have a hard time taking seriously books with an excessive amount of grammar or spelling errors. Though I know it isn't always true, it sends the message to me that the writer doesn't care how other people see their work. However, I know that probably sounds rather snooty of me, and the book is free, so I will still probably check it out sooner or later.

Your review made the book a lot more interesting than it's own summary did. It's not the kind of book I would usually read, unless it was the only book I could find on a very boring day, but your review was more specific about what the book was about, and I do like watching people's personalities grow, so I'm planning on giving this book a shot. Thanks for the heads up on the grammar and spelling, those kinds of things tend to distract me.

'Charles has deep SECRETS that hurt people in so many ways.' This statement got my interest. Am so curious. Thanks for the review.

After reading your review, I definitely want to know more about Charles' story. Why is he so reclusive? Why didn't he want anyone to know he was the one doing all those good deeds? I wonder what Karen said to make him open up, and what details of his life he ends up sharing with her on their travels. Too bad about the errors, but they don't seem bad enough to affect the experience. This sounds like a lot of fun!

Your review has me intrigued. I love a good story about love, friendships and a little mystery with the plot surprises. The grammar and spelling issues will probably drive me nuts but I'm willing to give this book a try. Thanks so much for your in depth review! It was very helpful!

Thank you for the review. It seems that the author is good with feelings and knowing people. The book sounds interesting- too bad about the errors.

Character-driven books like this are generally pretty interesting, and I really like the author's take on various forms of love. It's a shame about the grammar errors.

It will be interesting to see what this billionaire is hiding in his closeted past, to see how the relationships surrounding the story unfold, and whether or not the story eventually gets written.
