I tried. I really did. But this book is written so poorly that I had to stop at about 20% into it. I have read better writing from sixth graders (seriously! I'm not exaggerating). The verb tenses alternate seemingly at random between present and past tense. Commas are omitted from dialogue tags and direct address in dialogue. Dialogue tags, such as they are, are incorrectly punctuated and capitalized. In one paragraph, there is "were" instead of "we're" and "distance" instead of "distant". The prologue is misnamed an epilogue. Etc. Etc.On top of the massive grammar problems, the dialogue was often stilted, contained "as you know, Bob" passages, and lacked the normal contractions that people use when speaking. It very rarely sounded natural. The narrative was similarly clunky.
I also don't find several of the plot points very plausible:
(1) that a fifteen year old girl manages to conceal her pregnancy from her family while living with them
(2) that a hospital would discharge a fifteen year old immediately after giving birth and take her baby and put it up for adoption. No signing paper work? No talking to a social worker? No talking to her parents? Would she even be in any condition to *be* released right after giving birth? (Nope).
(3) that a fifteen year old girl could run off to a college that her parents didn't know about and then disappear. Her parents didn't take her to college and get her situated? Apparently not. Who just sticks a fifteen year old on a bus to college (or however else she got these without her parents)? Further, unless she had a full ride scholarship, her parents had to fill out financial aid forms for her. She's too young to work, so how did she support herself outside of the scholarship money? Sorry, there are just too many things that don't ring true here.
So overall, a very poor attempt at fiction writing. I would suggest that this writer hire an editor before she publishes anything else, as this is just awful.
Edited to add: I just looked at the book description and it says that she is married to a "Seargant" (yes, that IS misspelled), but in the book, he is described as a "Major". So which is it? *sigh*

He Loves Me to Death eBook Sonovia Alexander Michael Horne Reviews
There are for sure some sick individuals out there, not to mention abusive men, but the end of this story was above and beyond anything I expected. WOW!! Major was obviously acting out of character throughout the entire story and stepped into his own in the final analysis. Plot twist is a total understatement in the case of the sister. She truly DID hate her sister from childhood on and that was real even though her sister didn't really want to believe it was anything more than sibling jealousy in their younger years. Obviously, it was well over the top when she chose something as devious as sleeping with and getting pregnant by her sister's husband and be a part of him killing her in cold blood. That was evil and gruesome.
Ok I've read a few of this young lady's books and the stories are usually good but the editing sucks. I don't know if this is because she's with Shameek Speight's company or what. All of his books are garbage from an editing perspective. But my major qualm is this after reading all 5 of Ms. Alexander's books I'm wondering when anyone will inform the writer or the editor (ahem) that the EPILOGUE comes at the END of a book and the PROLOGUE comes at the BEGINNING. The first time I thought it was a fluke, but now I'm seeing it in all her books.
Self published or not, I hold independent writers to the same standard as Patricia Cornwell (my favorite), James Patterson and the like. I'm glad I only read these books when they are fee because I would really be pissed if I spent my hard-earned money on them. Please, please step up the editing. PLEASE.
I am not here to bash the author like some people are but I have a suggestion or two. Sonovia you should really have someone else read the book before you publish it. There were so many grammatical errors that were just elementary mistakes. Sometimes it helps if you have someone that can proof read it for you and then you can do a final read through before it's over. It was an okay story but you could've provided more details in certain areas. Paint the picture for me, allow me to immerse myself in the story. I will read the second book because I'm curious to see how it unfolds.
I read your Silent Cries series and it was great. Maybe this was your first book, I have no idea but I will continue to support you and your efforts. God Bless
This book was a bit confusing at times for me. It was crazy because one minute Leona's life is going great then everything is turned upside down once reuniting with her family. Everything was suspect from that point on. Major had some nerve. I couldn't understand why he felt the way he did about Eric when he was doing his own thing anyways. Leona had me mad because she was acting so naive like nothing in her life would go wrong and her family wouldn't hurt her. It's good Jonah and Leona are doing what is necessary to start building a relationship with Eric. Really Joanne?! That chick is something else. And if Major is so unhappy why is he being so possessive now. Hopefully part 2 is written better and understandable. My only questions are is there another reason Major feels the way he does, will someone help Leona in time, has Joanne gotten herself in something only to lose to her sister again, can Jonah and Leona start fresh, and does Eric have any ulterior motives behind wanting to know Leona?
