About the Author I didn’t start out to write this book. I was halfway through another story and stuck. So I decided to set that story aside and write something short, intending to get back to the first one in just a bit. But what to write? It was summer and thoughts of high school dates at the lake kept coming to mind—including a coconut cream pie fight we won’t speak of.What if? Not my lake and not even close to my own story, but within a week, Nicole and Jake were in my head, insisting their story be told.I love romance in books, movies, and songs. And in real life. Second chance stories are a particular favorite. About two weeks after I started writing Unfinished, we made contact with a friend we’d lost track of and discovered that the year before, he’d married his first love. After fifty years apart! First love did, indeed, get a second chance.It’s time for me to get back to the story that’s been waiting. Logan and Steve, my imaginary friends, are ready to talk.

I just have to take a few moments as my thoughts are ping-ponging on how to describe my state after reading this book. My first reaction was ... Dang, is this actually the last page I turning?I was approached by Ms Hammond's assistant to review this book and truthfully the cover led me to think... A sweet contemporary novel boy, girl and an HEA. Ok no worries it will be light and fun.HELLO!!! FAR FROM IT!! And I know that the words I write here still will not fully express my true experience in reading "Unfinished".It is truly a wonderful must!I began reading and then realized I totally misjudged the complexity and fullness of a fantastic woven, layered story. We are introduced to a sweet sassy h, Nicole and a wrong-side-a-the-tracks H, Jake who fall in love over summer. The story opens letting you know you're 23 years ahead and then we cast back to the beginning when a damaged boy meets the accepting ray of 'Sunshine' who turns his world around and for her this angsty guy is her first love. The build is so well done and the structure keeps your emotions climbing and although they find each other again physically, they have so much healing and letting go to reach each other emotionally.This is one well written book of the lives of two well-rounded, believable characters, right down to the fact that this "sweet contemporary story" was actually a full blown, messy, real-to-actual-life believable, no holes barred, sensual, knock your socks off journey that traversed 23 years of what ifs, horrible childhood experiences, coming of age, and finally healing. I got so caught up in this story that knowing how the characters looked, if the H was sexy and the h had attitude, was so not the priority. The spicy bits were very welcome but they fell so naturally in the story they were part of it rather that the hook to catch the reader, as in some books. The storyline has layers and layers married with the paint style of the h, Nicole, whose work was referenced throughout the flow as milestones in their journey.My thoughts are totally my own, and my only issues are, that the cover does not do the words justice as it seems frivolous compared to the depth inside. The price I must say is a giveaway as I have seen and read books that are much more expensive and are so airy and flat in comparison.Ms Hammond I am so grateful to Joann for contacting me and sharing your fantastic book with me and I am so enamored with it. It is on the top shelf of my library and I am now concreted as a fan of your work.Gifts are so rare and for us readers who appreciate a really good story that is realistic and has so many messages and morals within (and o don't forget a bit of sauce and spice too ) you have hit every check mark with a huge tick mark. Again thank you.

Time Changed for Me as I Read "Unfinished" By rmerriam I'm going to admit to knowing Susan and to have heard her read bits of this novel last Spring in writer's group. I dropped away from the group but was given the opportunity to read the finished work so I did. Now I'm a guy. I don't read romance novels. I'm into SF, suspense, legal, and high tech books. Seriously, I wouldn't consider romance if it were the last book in the world. But I wanted to see what Susan accomplished.I read a few chapters, got distracted with my own technical writing for a few days, and picked it back up late the Saturday when we changed from Daylight Savings Time to Standard Time. I kept watching the time on my iPad so I wouldn't read too late - which means 2 am for me. I just kept on reading until I finished the book. It made me want to keep going. Then I looked at a real clock and saw the iPad had changed time on me. It was 3:30 am! Yikes! Duh! The iPad changed time one me!Is this well written? Yes! Is it suspenseful? Yup! Could I put it down? Nope!Susan did a great job of bringing in real life situations that shaped Jake's life. I nodded at least twice as his experiences paralleled my own or others I've known. I could see Nicole in people I know. I also at various times in the book wanted to grab both of them and shake them until they came to their senses. That's how real Susan made them.
4 of 4 people found the following review helpful. Beautifully crafted. By lt-stahler A delightful, captivating romp of a story. But what sets this book apart is the quality of the writing. Hammond is a craftsman of the language; the prose is tight, polished, and makes you want to linger over each sentence. A magnificent first novel.
