4.0 out of 5 stars a compelling emotional journey, May 4, 2003

This review is from: Meant To Be (Love Spectrum Romance) (Paperback)

When a white woman and an African-American man fall in love in rural Michigan, a lot of trouble can happen. Although Amy and Cord have corresponded for years as business associates, their meeting face to face for the first time sets them on an explosive path of events. The romantic tension surrounding their first meeting had me turning the pages right away. The first love scene happened kind of soon for me, but as I read further, I understood it needed to happen when it did because it forced them to decide whether or not to enter into an open relationship. I was practically biting my nails, wondering what Amy would do and feeling her love for Cord through her emotions.

This book really opened my eyes to the difficulties experienced in interracial relationships. I thought the fact that some family members were supportive of the union made the story seem very real. I also like how Jeff Delaney is not just the bad guy but a very real character who grows over the course of the book. I really enjoyed this book and got wrapped up in the passion and emotions the characters experienced. I was sorry when it was over and look forward to reading more books by this author.

This review is from: Meant To Be (Love Spectrum Romance) (Paperback)

The cover of the book attracted me. It was obviously a biracial relationship with the herione as white. I haven't seen many of those so I picked up the book. Gosh, it is a wonderful love story. The author portrayed the emotions with such intensity that I could feel every jolt the hero and heroine took. If you want to read about true love this is the story to read.

4.0 out of 5 stars Surprisingly Real Romance, March 23, 2002

I read this book because in the author's newsletter she stated due to many reader request that her next novel, The Next One Is White, would be picking up on 2 characters from Meant To Be, Jeff and Leah. I'm glad I did! Not only are Cord and Amy a wonderful couple and so typical of life in the US today but I could see potential for Leah and Jeff. Now I can't wait to read the follow up.
