Masterful blend of history and steamy love
Revisado: 02-15-25
A history lesson within another racy tale of the settling of the West. As usual with Beverly Jenkins’s novels, the storyline balanced the steamy sex scenes. She is a master of the genre.

Generational trauma can only be broken by confrontation and a desire to change.
Revisado: 01-05-25
The enduring love between Shane and Eva was the most remarkable thing about this book. True love that’s honest and grounded wouldn’t allow any separation.

The desire to only want the best for each other in the true biblical spirit of being your brothers/sisters keeper.

I like her books with the “steam” better but the Blessings series are very wholesome.

- De: Beverly Jenkins

A murder mystery and love story starring 2 mesmerizing charismatic lovers.
Revisado: 12-06-23
I really liked the story line. My favorite character was Reese (the fine). What a man. His patience with and devotion to JT was a beautiful thing. Slow courting-flowers, dinner, compliments- yes, every girl’s dream!. I loved the insertion of Frankie Beverly and MAZE as a theme for Reese’s opening and closing moods regarding JT. The sex scenes were tastefully sensuous. The Narrator was excellent. She had an excellent voice for each character. I would really welcome a sequel bringing in JT’s sister Max and her husband Dr Adam Gary. That would make a best seller!

I have exactly 5 hours and 10 minutes to get from Boston to New York City or the professional opportunity of a lifetime disappears. My only travel option? The second to last seat on a discount bus. Across from the bathroom. Wearing last night’s clothes (don’t ask). All worth it if I can make it in time.

Thoroughly Engaging Portrait of the African Slave Trade and Legacy
Revisado: 11-07-16
This book took on an expansive view of slavery that captured intricate tellings of its impact on every race, tribe and culture that touched it - from the complicity of the African; the sadistic , greedy, inhumane and exploitive European; and the overcoming nature, spirit and humanity of the African American .

Such a period piece
Revisado: 03-10-16
As we watch the 2016 US elections unfold along with a renewed unleashing of racism, bigotry and xenophobia , this book reminds me that the more things change the more they stay the same!

A Timely and Piercing Reflection on Aging
Revisado: 12-22-15
As a single senior citizen aging in place, the topic was very compelling and touching. The writing was crisp and the story wasn't over worked. I give it a 4.9 only because I wanted a definitive happy ending tied in a neat pretty bow!
