4.0 out of 5 stars Vision is in the Soul..., September 28, 2007

By	The RAWSISTAZ Reviewers (RAWSISTAZ.com and BlackBookReviews.net) - See all my reviews

SOUL CARESS begins with a horrific accident that robs Kennedy Daniels of her eyesight and she must endure the ominous task of rehabilitation and living without her sight. Kennedy has been on the fast track to becoming a successful financial analyst and with the support of her very elitist family, her life has been glorious. However, the accident changes her life and during her recovery she meets Malik Crawford, her orderly in the rehabilitation center. They find a common ground although their lives are totally different which Kennedy finds is part of the attraction.

Malik's attraction to Kennedy is immediate and goes beyond him being her orderly. He finds he can be himself with her and vice versa. He also is very aware of their different backgrounds, but decides to ride the relationship out until it ends. When Kennedy's family discovers the relationship, they are determined to end it by any means necessary. Will Kennedy be able to stand up to her family and follow her heart?

SOUL CARESS was a pleasant departure from the typical romance story where the man is rich and successful. Malik was a regular guy with a big and selfless heart. The story showcased that people cannot dictate who one should love. Kennedy's emotional growth was also amazing to witness as well as Malik's belief in his strength of being a man worthy of Kennedy's love. The characters were endearing and believable and the romance between Kennedy and Malik was beautiful. I love Shaw's ability to demonstrate, even with Kennedy's blindness she could see.

5.0 out of 5 stars Blind Love, August 22, 2007

By	Louise L. Brown - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This was a great book I enjoyed this book from beginning to end. We have all at one time or another spent out life trying to please out parents and Kennedy was no difference. Kennedy was raise by her high-society parent who tried to instill in her the privileged life she lead, but when Kennedy had to depend on something other than her signt she learn the true meaning of loving someone unconditional. In the midst of her despair, Kennedy encounters Malik Crawford, an orderly assigned to her floor. Malik honorable, compassionate and hardworking man. Malik presence helps heal her wounds and awaken her desire. Malik is from the wrong side of town who has his own goals. Through out this book you will see Kennedy to grow and learn that world is not as she was taught by her parents. Kennedy and Malik to me has a very special love and you will feel that through out this book.

You will truely enjoy reading this book.

4.0 out of 5 stars Love across the classes, March 6, 2008

By	Denny "Den" (London,UK) - See all my reviews

Society tends to frown when poorer working black man has a rich upper middle class woman as a love interest. Even more so in the black community where issues of skin colour rears its ugly prejudiced head. Kennedy - the rich girl and Malik - the orderly find love in extraordinary circumstances when Kennedy is a patient in the hospital where he works. However Kennedy being reared to please her parents find it hard to deal with their objections. Will true love win out in the end? The book deals with the subject in a entertaining but moving manner. Looking forward to the sequel about Madison the rebel sister.
