Stalker in Paradise by Francine Howarth

With regret, this book disappointed me for many reasons. Let me start with some quotes from the book:

‘Ahoy, their Daddy, how’s the birthday boy?’ 

‘Oh, and Ricky, see to it your back on set by one on the dot.’ 

‘The fisherman are hauling their boats right up the beach’ 

‘Whilst walking down the winding path er thoughts kept turning full circle’ 

'Yee Gods' 

'Clothes-hangar' 

'Gratis a quickie divorce' 

And these are only a drop in the very large ocean of errors in this book. I’m wondering whether this book should have been titled ‘Stalker in Paradise—Draft Edition’. 

Unfortunately, it wasn’t well written, the characters were cardboard and one-dimensional, not credible or even likeable. The dialogue was wooden and unnatural, and there was an odd choice of words for a modern chick lit—who uses in a thrice or betwixt or visage these days? 

I always finish a book, and more often than not I have been rewarded for my determination. I hoped…desperately…that this would be the case in this book, but sadly it just didn’t happen. 

It's a thumbs down for this book.
