I just finished it today. I will say that it’s a little different than what I’m used to reading as far as the language goes. I’m sure you’ll know what I mean when I mention books by authors such as Zane, Jerome Dickey, <span class="yshortcuts">Michael Baisden</span>…etc. But….this book was a good surprise. I like the climax of the book and how it made me want to find out what happened to the characters. Lee was a character that most females can relate to dealing with. Anyway, to make a long story short…..I really enjoyed the book and if this was your first??? The rest of African Americans authors better watch their back! Thanks again!”</span></span></p> <p></p> <p style="margin:0in 0in 0pt;" class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11pt;"><span style="font-family:'Times New Roman';"> -Felicia Woods</span></span></p> <p></p>
