Ditto. However.....I downloaded the book onto my Kindle. I will just as quickly get my refund for it and delete it....as soon as I type this.

The copyright is 2012 by G.W. Coatoam.

I'd type the various chapters, which speak for themselves, however, do not want to violate this copyright.

She or he does state at the very beginning that the book is totally fictitious and simply a product of the author's imagination. Any resemblence to the Villages, Florida is strictly coincidental. It's a very long "explanation" of although the book is set in or near The Villages Florida, with residents aged 55 or older, the story is not intended to suggest that the actions are typical of the residents of THE VILLAGES.
The police department and fire department are fictitious as well as the Marion County Sheriff's office and the Mid Florida Regional Hospital and Trauma Center...........also fictional.

So, why bother? Just change the name of the town to a fictitious one, right?

As another poster mentioned, it is poorly written.

Fifty Shades of Grey was written by someone with a very different writing ability. At least with that "trilogy" I got through most of the second book, before it and the third book just fell by the wayside. All downloaded on my kindle.

So, much ado about nothing. Don't waste your money. I'm going to get my refund now. That's the great thing about amazon and the kindle.
If you download a book that just isn't good, you can get a quick refund and credit to your charge card.

I really do not think I could waste my time on this book.........but curious minds want to know. Now I know.

p.s. I also read Leisureville years ago........and did not find this book to be anything at all like that one.
