HER BEST MATCH

A REVIEW

I like to keep an open mind and read different types of books but I have my favorites. They are not romantic comedies but I don’t rate my reviews according to personal preferences. I evaluate the book’s quality in spite of my personal preferences. I think that is the least I can do.

Having said that, I must confess I enjoyed ‘Her Best Match’ much more than I thought I would. Tami’s a talented writer who takes you to a pleasant ride in her fairy-tale kind of story. If you enjoyed Cinderella as a child, and keep searching for Prince Charming in your ‘book boyfriends’, you’ll love this book.

Finally, I’d like to explain my 4-star rating. Although I enjoyed the book very much, and I understand it’s supposed to be an unrealistic story, I found some elements of it a bit exaggerated.

ALPHA READERS

THANK YOU,

In March 2014, when I started writing ‘Luck of the Irish’, I meant it to be a short-story, which I wanted to publish on St. Patrick’s Day. As so often happens with characters and authors, Declan and Keira took control of the story and I couldn’t stop them. Or wouldn’t, I don’t know. The fact is that I fell in love with their story as they unfold it to me. I wanted to know them better and write about them 24/7. Unfortunately, not being able to afford that - got bills to pay and a day job which pays them – I had to squeeze as much time as possible into my other tasks to be able to write Declan and Keira’s story. And it’s been a fun ride! I’ve had my share of bumps, stumbles and falls, I’ve met great people along the way – namely, ALL of my alpha readers - and I had the time of my life delving into these characters’ minds.
Now, six months after that modest beginning, I have to finish writing ‘Luck of the Irish’. Even though I know I’ll miss having those characters around me, telling me their thoughts and feelings (mostly, I’ll miss Declan, of course – my Alpha readers know what I mean LOL), it’s time to say goodbye and move on to new characters and new stories.
But, I can’t do that before thanking in public this AMAZING group of people who helped me get here. They’ve tirelessly encouraged me, corrected me, nudged me and pointed me in the right direction. I could not have written ‘Luck of the Irish’ without them.
So, to my dearest ALPHA READERS – Allison, Alyssa, Erin, Genna, Kimber, Leigh-Ann, Loralea, Maike, Maureen, Niki, Sam, and Tonya – I say THANK YOU for your hard work, for taking time out of your busy lives to read, comment and send me feedback. Through your eyes, I was able to see interesting and different aspects of Keira, Declan, and all the other characters, which enriched the story and took it to whole new levels. I’m very proud of what we have accomplished as a team. I’ll soon send you the last chapter, but I still haven’t found the answer to that question I put to you on my last email – ‘Would you say it’s normal for an author to get sad when she/he is almost done writing a novel?’ LOL

RRBC'S BOOK OF THE MONTH

Here's my review

My rate of 4 stars is due to the fact that I found the writing style and the book structure a bit odd. I got distracted by issues like punctuation and chapter division. The author uses too many ellipses, for my taste, and the chapters are extremely short. For instance, my Kindle app is set for the maximum number of words in a two-column page. In it, chapter 8 has 12 lines while the longest one - Chapter 19 - has 7 pages. Most chapters have 3 pages. Another example of it is Chapter 90. It ends in the middle of a dialogue, which continues in the beginning of Chapter 91 for two short paragraphs. Then, there are three stars signaling a scene change. Why? The next book in this series –Superior Intrigue – could benefit from a more thorough editing.

Having said that, I must confess these issues might have annoyed the writer in me. I’m sure most readers will not notice and will not be distracted by them. And these readers shouldn’t let these little things bother them because the story is worth their time.

The rhythm flows as fast as the car chase scenes. Being a fan of car races myself, I was enthralled by the detailed descriptions of the action. They put me right in the middle of the chase. The mysteries and the investigation process kept me glued to my laptop screen.

The author was very skillful when presenting characters from the two previous books of this series. I hadn’t read those books but that made no difference in my understanding and enjoyment of Superior Peril.

Although we get answers to many questions raised along the book, there is a cliffhanger. That didn’t bother me because I love a good series and this is definitely an excellent detective series. I recommend it to all book lovers in search for a good story.
