Loved It,
By A Customer
This review is from: Ambrosia (Paperback)
I originally heard of this book through a friend. She raved about it and let me borrow her copy. Previous to reading Ambrosia, I did not know who David Matthew Barnes was. Now, I am sure that he is America's hidden treasure and Ambrosia will catch on like wildfire. I have already given my friend's copy to another friend of mine. I think that all of us have a little bit of Tina Duncan in us and it is good to know that we are not alone in our search for the perfect man.

The Spirit of a Woman,
By A Customer
This review is from: Ambrosia (Paperback)
Along with his fantastic scripts, this author knows how to capture the spirit of a woman. (turns out, some men DO understand!) I felt myself relating with this character in so many ways. Moments of this book were so hilarious that when I laughed out loud, people practically fell out of their seats. This book shares that no matter how bad life can get, there's always sunshine ahead.
