Editorial Reviews

From Library Journal

Published in time for Valentine's Day, this anthology of contemporary novellas makes use of various holiday festivities and brings readers three appropriately heartwarming romances. Former lovers rediscover and finally accept each other in Rochelle Alers's upscale, trendy "Hearts of Gold"; an outwardly conservative romance editor and a free-lance copy editor find romance both on the Internet and in real life in Donna Hill's light and often funny "Masquerade"; and a police widow and her husband's former partner put the deceptive past behind them and claim a love that was there all the time in Janice Sims's slightly more serious "To Love Again." As expected, the stories vary in quality and style but should appeal to most readers. All three authors have written earlier romances for the Arabesque line (Hill and Alers, whose new book is reviewed above, are veterans); Hill lives in Brooklyn and Sims in Mascotte, Florida.

5.0 out of 5 stars I liked the whole book, Janice sims is my favorite though., April 19, 1999

I read the whole book, but the one story I wanted to read over again was the one by Janice Sims. she just knows how to make vivid stories. Her romantic novels, to me, reign supreme. I am a blackman and if she can get a blackman to read such books then she most certainly has the knack for this type of writing. Even though she says she hasn't written her definitive work yet, I just can't wait to read what ever that work is that she sees as the definition of her talent. Indeed if not all of her books end up being made into a movie at least one of them should. Plus she is a poet too, you can't get better than that. Get this book and all over he other books. Janice Sims will soon be one of the writers we will always be talking about, don't take my word for it. Read the book for yourself.

5.0 out of 5 stars A must Read Anthology!, October 16, 2000

This review is from: Love Letters (Arabesque) (Mass Market Paperback)

Alers never disappoints me. Loved Kenyon and Shumba's story. Who says change destroys a relationship, love conquers all!

Sims once again displays her talent for writing in this bueatifully written novella. Alana and Nico's story was very touching. It is great to have a friend around when a love one dies, but it is lovely to have someone to love always!

Hill's Masquerade was my favorite novella in "Love Letters." Hill shows her writing skills in this one. "Masquerade" was a fun and enjoyable read! Much love to all authors!!

5.0 out of 5 stars I fell in love with Shumba the way he went after Kenyon., March 9, 1998

Love Letters was a really good book and I really enjoyed Kenyon and Shumba story my heart with out for Shumba. I just wanted him to have her so bad. There was so much love there between them two the second time around,it is a must read book but Hearts of Gold is a must read short story in book.
