Fear can really be a powerful force in one's life, as in this story, the fear of Naomi's past was like a stronghold keeping her from moving forward for 14 years. Then Naomi meets Rufus Meade who has the patience of Job, because that is the test he endures when he begins this relationship. But so often in life one has to walk through those valleys because that is the only way to be free, however, it took so long for Naomi to finally get it. So readers be patient with this one, just ride with the tide and think about those times in life where it just takes time for some of us to get it together but we finally do. You will enjoy the supporting characters in this story - twin four-year old boys, a wise teenager and a busy body 95 year old grandfather, they add lots of joy and humor to this story which gives you a bit of fresh air from being pulled with Naomi's fear but hang in there because you will learn how to be PATIENT!

I loved this book, read it numerous times. The characters, Naomi Logan and Rufus Meade are so real, I fell in love with Rufus, and wanted to give Naomi a call to shake her up a little. Naomi and Rufus create a sexual tension not to be believed, but must be read. This is a must read for anyone who's a romance fan. Ms. Forster outdoes herself with this one. An amazing, funny, sexy, very real story.

I loved this book. It showed me how two people can boil each others water without being in the same room, oh that happens too? Loved how Rufus got as good as he gave from Noami. This is really a great read. Much love to Ms Forster!

After reading almost one hundred books of Romance by African American Authors, this is my favorite and Gwynne Forster is one of my favorite authors. She weaves a very solid story with intricate characters and a sophisticated plot. Rufus is a real man with a soft side and a very good father to his twins. Naomi is a compassionate woman who must deal with the indiscretions of her past. I loved this story and I have read it five times!!

Rufus and Naomi are such an unlikely pair, you can't stop rooting for them to get together. The genuine affection, exasperation and the intellectual and sexual tension between them heats up the pages. And, despite the ups and downs in their relationship, they never lose their senses of humor. Throw in a set of four-year old twins, a wise teenager and a manipulative 90-year old and you've got a recipie for fun. "Sealed with a Kiss" is a keeper.

Enjoyable book! the characters had real concerns children, family expectations, careers... Both characters had flaws and the opportunity to grow. The author writes in a manner that respects the reader.
