GREAT Hero...ANNOYING Heroine, February 17, 2010
This review is from: Promises of Forever (Indigo) (Mass Market Paperback)
Just finished Promises of Forever...and I HONESTLY don't know how I feel...it's a pretty GOOD read...Finn is DEFINITELY a charming, caring, protective, loving TAKE CHARGE kinda man...I really enjoy the care and concern he shows Kayleigh throughout...but at times I must say I find Kayleigh to be a bit annoying...I just CAN'T wrap my mind around the whole idea that her doctor tells her to take it easy...take better care of herself...cut back on her activities...yet she BLATANTLY refuses to do so...it's like HELLO...IF you want to live...IF you want to possibly beat this illness...you MUST take better care of yourself...it would be a no-brainer for me...on top of that she has this WONDERFULLY giving man who WILLINGLY wants to take care of her (illness, hang-ups, and all) and she still REFUSES to slow down...and the little murder/mystery doesn't really make sense to me (seems unnecessary)...that being said, I did ENJOY the SENSUAL romance between Kayleigh and Finn.

Thank You, February 1, 2010
This review is from: Promises of Forever (Indigo) (Mass Market Paperback)
When I finished reading PROMISES OF FOREVER, I had a better understanding of the quotes: "love is blind" and "in sickness and in health." After the death of her father, thirty-five-year old Kayleigh Hardy buries herself in her job, school and volunteer work. All in an effort to forget she is alone in the world, working a job she is not happy with, and having no college degree. A call from her lawyer/godfather sets her life on a different path when she meets Phineas "Finn" Callahan, the handsome Irish financial planner.
I was in awe of the way Bowers introduced and dealt with the interracial relationships and the disease Lupus. A murder, a secret, and secondary characters added just the right amount of intrigue to PROMISES OF FOREVER. Grab your box of tissues, a cup of tea, and your favorite chair and enjoy.

Such a good book!!, January 25, 2010
This review is from: Promises of Forever (Indigo) (Mass Market Paperback)
Normally I don't write reviews but I had to take the time write one. I've read a lot of interracial romance books and I have to say this one tops my list! I read it within a day and it warmed my heart and put a smile on my face the whole time I was reading it.
