Review by: Melanie
(3.5 stars)
Moving on is the debut novel from British author Pavan Kaur.
This is the story of Kimberly Turner, who after suffering through something horrendous, is trying to move on with her life. About to graduate from college she's hoping to get taken on permanently by the newspaper she's been working at as an intern. A big part of hopefully securing the position involves an interview with millionaire businessman, Nicholas Webb. Nick instantly takes a shine to Kim and from there the story begins.
As is often the case from a debut, independent author, there were quite a few edit issues throughout. Mainly only minor things like the wrong word used e.g. Brain instead of Brian, a few British words used when the characters are from Chicago, and random full stops and commas. There were also a couple of instances of switching between tenses, for example, the character was about to get into the car and do something (present) but they got in and had done something (past), which although these things didn't take anything away from the story for me I will have to mention them to be as honest as possible.
The story was engaging though, I wanted to carry on reading, in fact I only stopped when I did because it was 1am and I have children to get to school in the morning! The characters were likeable and I'd like to find out what happens to them all. Although I wouldn't exactly say it ended on a cliff-hanger, it was definitely set up for the next book. This is a romance with some suspense in there, not an erotic romance so don't go into it expecting steamy sex scenes.
Overall, I'd give Moving On, 3.5 stars but with the editing issues done, it would be a definite 4 for me. A very good debut from a promising new author.
