Great story, bad editing

Loved the storyline, but there was a few typos , which made it a little difficult to read.  Overall, I would follow this author and read more of her books.

Let's get right out of the way my main objection; the editing seriously sucks.  Otherwise this is a wonderful story told with nice timing and great humor.

Excellent story, love the interaction between characters and animals!
It needs to be re-edited tho, as there are several errors that are distracting from the flow...

I really love my Kindle and hope to see more books appear in this format (still waiting for the entire Harry Potter series to be released on Kindle).  This is a surprising good story and it has totally kept my interest.  However, I am on Book #3 of this series and must say that the editing is absolutely TERRIBLE!  HORRIBLE!  Misspelled words, missing words, incorrect sentence structure, proper names mixed up, and much more.  It's all of the books so far, not just one.  Someone really needs to review these before releasing them to the public.

I like the story line and writing but the EDITING is atrocious and very DISTRACTING as I read. The cast of characters is delightful and each has been carefully crafted with unique personality traits. The book reads almost as Young Adult but crosses into more Adult reading at times. I love the clever use of mundane everyday life things taking on a 'new' persona such as  the board game played, Vampire culture and governance. I am enjoying the multi-dimensional aspect of the story. I quickly jumped into the second book and so much more has been added. I predict this writing team has a great future as they continue to deliver more to read, but for heavens sake, better EDITING! My rating is low ONLY because I can't let that poor editing slide; old teaching habits, marketing is hurt also by releasing copy like that too!

I liked this story a lot, but in order to read it I had to get through numerous (at least 60) errors - missing words, words used improperly, grammatical errors - everything that has been said before in the reviews above.  However, as I made all those notations in my kindle, I would be willing to edit this book for free or for some small sum. It seems as though a lot of these books that I've gotten free need proper editing.  I'm not a professional, but I could help make it much easier to read and the reader wouldn't be jarred out of the story so often by trying to figure out what the author really meant.  If only someone would take me up on this! :D

The story was awesome but there was so many spelling mistakes and grammatical errors that it was driving me nuts! The editor should be fired! Other then that it was great story. Lots of action and adventure. Can't wait to read the next book. Just hope there are way less errors because it's very distracting.

I hate writing bad reviews. Don't get me wrong -  I love this book! I couldn't put it down, until the very end. It's full of warmth and humor. It's a paragon of angst and anticipation. BUT. There is one big issue about this book: editing. There are no commas where they are sorely needed, singular/plural mismatch, and lots of typos of all kinds, though even they are funny:)  Other than that, this is a very heartwarming read. Please get it properly edited!

While I enjoyed the storyline, I was extremely distracted by the terrible editing on this book. On almost every page there are multiple errors; punctuation problems -specifically incorrect useage of apostrophes with plurals and possessives, incorrect words ( ie: peaked for peeked was consistent throughout the story), wrong names assigned to speakers, incomplete sentences, incorrect pronouns and assorted other issues. If an editor were to correct these problems, the story would be much more enjoyable and rate higher.

As for the plot, I found it interesting. There was not much new on the werewolf theme, with the exception of twins sharing a true mate, and humans being able to be true mates if they were hybrids of mages or other non human species. I liked the characters of Hunter and Cyr and their care of their relationship with Mia. The happiness they brought to each other despite their pasts was very uplifting. The stalker plotline was well done and had interesting twists to it.  It promises to give fodder for the next book as well, as it brought the issue of hybrids vs. inbreds out into the open. I liked the supporting characters and family members that accepted Mia and recognized her gifts early on, adopting and protecting her as one of their own. I will be interested to see where the next book goes, but only if an editor is brought on board!

There is graphic sex and violence in this story along with some profanity.
Heat factor hot.

I really enjoyed the story, and this would have gotten 5 stars from me if it weren't for the numerous grammatical errors that i found irritating. This book really needs to be edited (by a human). All of the errors would be missed by spell-checks as they are really words, but the wrong words, that i noticed several times.

Again this is a great story that i really enjoyed and would highly recommend once the spelling errors are fixed.

Fun, engaging story riddled with grammatical errors that could definitely use an editor.  If grammatical errors don't pull you out of the story, you'll enjoy this. If lackadaisical, haphazard editing bothers you, don't read this. Features include one exciting heroine a bunch of bad guys, a zillion kidnappings, strange punctuation, a need for a thesaurus entry for the word "lecherous" (which is used ad nauseum), and even a paragraph that leaves off without finishing a sentence at all! Either the author is in need of an editor, or whoever transcribed it for Kindle should rethink their career choice. Story line, characters, and magical world are thoroughly enjoyable.  I vote the author hires an editor, as I'd love to hear more from this world.

Love the characters and the story! Would have given 5 stars, but there are some rather glaring editing mistakes. If you can get around those, it's an enjoyable read!

Loved the character development, the intrigue, the cultural backstory.
HATED the shoddy editing; it diminishes the GREAT story! FIX IT!

Great read; poor editing!! I gave the other a higher rating even though it was poorly edited, but as good as the story is the author should smack the editor because of the grammatical errors are keeping this series from receiving the 5 stars that it deserves.

Excellent story line and solid character development. Very sloppy editing. I am an avid reader and unfortunately the poor editing detracted from the substance of the story. Easy to correct.

great story, editing is awful, spelling and grammar errors through out make the reading not go smoothly but the story itself was great.

First off, let me just say that I loved the story. I felt like it gave me an insider's look into addiction and mental illness, as well as what happens to shelter animals.  In fact, after reading this book, I think adopting a shelter dog may be in my future. The problem I had with this book was the poor editing (kindle version, downloaded in May). There was bad word choice--using "live" instead of "life" a couple of times was mentioned in a previous review.  But there were also things like "it's" instead of "its".  There was also a lack of punctuation at the end of a couple of sentences.  And there was a confusing instance in chapter 28 where one character, James, was referred to as another character, Tom. These and lots of other word choice, grammatical and punctuation errors continuously took me out of the story.  I kept reading--when normally I would have stopped--because I really did like the characters and the world that the author created. With a good editor, I think it could have been a five star book.

Edited to add:  Turns out there's a second edition of this book that was released after the copy I read, and that's the one that's available for download now.  Looks like grammatical and other errors I complained about before have been fixed--which is great because it's a powerful story that I can now wholeheartedly recommend. Thanks to author for sending me the new version.
