A Feel Good Story!, March 19, 2009
This review is from: Moments of Clarity (Indigo) (Mass Market Paperback)
Sasha Diamond just caught her boyfriend of two years cheating on her. She is pretty much done with relationships after that, but Sexton Johnson has other plans. Sexton is an NBA star that is ready to settle down. He said that his mother told him what to look for in a woman, and Sexton has found it in Sasha. Of course when everything is going good, something has to go wrong. The question is, how will Sasha handle the drama having been betrayed before?
Moments Of Clarity was a feel good book. The characters were "real" and very relatable. I also enjoyed the fact that Cameron portrayed a different side of an NBA star since the media usually glorifies what they are doing wrong. She shows the guy who wants to be married and be a family man...the good guy side.

No More Rose-colored Glasses, January 28, 2009
This review is from: Moments of Clarity (Indigo) (Mass Market Paperback)
Sasha Diamond was first introduced in Never Say Never by Michele Cameron, where she was a sassy and eccentric, secondary character. In Cameron's latest release, Sasha is the main character and while we are getting a better view of her life, she is also learning more about herself in Moments of Clarity.
Sasha is aware that her boyfriend, Abdul, is simply a place holder in her love life, but when she realizes that he is cheating on her, she cut all ties. When her path crosses that of Sexton Johnson, a professional basketball player, Sasha has a preconceived notion and attempts to ignore his advances. While coming to grips with her attraction to Sexton, Sasha also tries to be patient with her best friend, Tiara, who is having a major life crisis. Will Sasha allow her friend's problems to tarnish the relationship Sexton and she are trying to build? Or will she make hasty decisions and lose him forever?
These characters really go through it. The emotions and quick reactions to the actions of others created the tension and climax. The plot is well developed as are the characters. The editing needed to be polished, but the story was so good I did not deduct from my rating. I recommend Moments of Clarity to romance lovers.

A Man and woman of Clarity, January 2, 2009
This review is from: Moments of Clarity (Indigo) (Mass Market Paperback)
I first met Sasha (and her sense of humor) in her _Never Say Never_, which introduced the interracial romance between her sister Desiree and Tyler.
However, in _Moments of Clarity_ Sasha's romance take front stage. Both Sasha and Sexton Johnson are two characters that experience (although unwilling at first) their own moments of clarity.
I thought the tension between Sasha and her best friend Tiara was very real; something myself and other women have experienced. Also, Sexton's struggle to deal with certain family issues is something that many adopted children deal with every day.
Sasha and Sexton's love story is one that is real! It is one where Cameron gives us an image of a true and viable romance. I appreciate Cameron's focus on romance, love, and passion. Many authors lose this when they focus on unrealistic plots and characters who don't seem real.
All praises to Michelle Cameron for Moments of Clarity. I look forward to her next true romance.
