Helpful Score: 4

This book was a great first draft. As with all first drafts, it needed some polishing, and some filling in. The author had a great plot, but, not enough details. I wanted to know how she struggled and what all she went through to succeed in her business, instead we read that she opens her business on a shoestring and boom, she's rich and owns stores everywhere. The "urst" element was there, (unrequited lust), but was taken a little bit too far and began to get a bit tedious. I would have given this book three stars except that for several chapters the author kept mentioning "ice tea", over and over. Now one grammatical error is understandable, but to keep saying it over and over again really gets on one's nerves and takes away from the story. Why not serve lemonade or bourbon, at least she could spell it.
