This book has a great storyline and interesting characters. At first I wasnt’t for the trupple, but it grew on me. What hasn’t grown on me is the amount of wasted words the author utilizes in their efforts of creating visual descriptions of the scenery and characters. Literally, in most chapters, the 1st few pages are repetitive descriptions of the ‘lush estate’ or ‘beauty of the mls. If they have to provide a detailed reminder every chapter of the aesthetic prowess of the characters & backdrop, do it in 1-2 paragraphs per chapter rather than repeating yourself multiple times wasting multiple pages of each chapter. A proofreader is definitely needed.

LIKEThank you for the constructive criticism. All feedback is so important to help me grow as a writer. This is my first novel so I'm learning as I go and balancing a full-time day job and continuing studies. I tend to describe quite a lot to help me visualize and sometimes when I have writer's block. I'm looking to add a proofreader to my team of one, as my budget permits. There'll be some back editing then. Thank you again for reading and for all your support!!!
I’m interested let me know if you do decide to get one
