3.0 out of 5 stars
Reality, December 22, 2007
This review is from: On My Own (Paperback)
Main character, Kaye, seems to have things on track, but once she makes her heart accessible to a man, everything changes and it doesn't seem for the better.
ON MY OWN is an intriguing book that will encourage women to stay strong through enduring situations. Though vulnerability may bring about pain, this is an unyielding journey and worth the experience. However, the book's slow start and lack of excitement at times pulled at this reader's attention. Overall, ON MY OWN is a good book as it was realistic in its portrayal of the many different obstacles that women face.

Can't put it down, March 8, 2007
This review is from: On My Own (Paperback)
~SYNOPSIS~ After a terrible breakup, Kalondria "Kaye" Parker enters a state of self-discovery. It is during this period that she is introduced to Atlanta Panthers running back, Jalen Matthews. After sharing more that a passionate kiss when they are left alone for a weekend, Kaye is left to make a crucial choice: should she choose an unsure future with Jalen or should she make a decision that will forever change her life?
Excellent book with great details that paint visual images as you read. This breakout author is destined to be around for a long time. On My Own reminds me of Eric Jermome Dickey, but it is not as "hardcore," nor is it rated G. It is a great read that I could not put down because I was so anxious to see what was going to happen next. Great job and thanks for placing me on the edge of my seat! Can't wait for the next installment.

Second Time Around....., December 20, 2009
This review is from: On My Own (Paperback)
Kaylondria Parker is all work and no play makes her a dull girl. After a horrible breakup with her boyfriend she decides to focus more so on her career as a chemist, until Kay is introduced to football extraordinaire Jalen Matthews. Will she be able to let go of her past and let love into her heart once again?
On My Own was a great read. Many can relate to in some shape, form or fashion of being hurt and dusting themselves off and try again to find that special love of their own. This novel was very enjoyable and has a little bit of a twist halfway towards the end that had me very surprised. I consider this book to be in the genre of Christian fiction because in the end God has control and if it's meant to be it will be.
