I wouldn't think the free book thing would be a problem at all as long as she made sure to say she got a free copy to review. I've seen lots of reviews on Amazon saying that.
Yes, that is the idea behind giving them away for review and we expect people to say that in their review (most do). But I completely agree. I don't really know how Amazon determines that I'm too friendly with someone, but I sure as heck don't like them trolling the internets trying to find out! It's more than a little creepy. I stopped leaving reviews there because ... creepy!!!
