This particular book is self published. Author pulled the all her books till she could consort a lawyer. Of course seeing she is staying silent and not lashing back makes her a easy target. If it does turn out she did plagiarize and is guilty on this book there is really no one to draw that conclusion we just have a bunch of people from the fanfic world throwing stones.
I believe in innocent till proven guilty not many do anymore.
The problem is GR is doing nothing to pull these attacks on a author who may or maybe not be innocent but most of this is against GR's so called new guidelines.
