Ah only with pronouns is actually correct.
With nouns awkward and wrong.
Any other noticeable errors and can I venture a guess, self-published.
I can handle the she'll, he'll, you'll things like that but it is the prove'll and other things that mess me up.

No it was published by Berkley in 2008.

Author's bio states she lives in southeastern Massachusetts. So maybe it is common speech in that area. I don't know but I am wondering if I will make it through the other 9 books in this series.
