after the loving (all)

well a friend of mine had given me the book sometime last year 2008 never got around to reading it. but when I started I fell in love with all the charters they were well rounded but set in there ways and then all of there lives charge.... it had a good flow i felt like i was there. the big house the butler everything the love making the being romance... love it love it love it all there stories..

The second is as good as the first!!!

After reading, After the Loving, I was sad the story was over, I wished that I could have continued to read the story of Russ and Velma. Two terrific characters that Gwynne Foster obviously took some time with.

I enjoyed this book

This book was good. This was my first time reading a book by this author, but it WILL not be the last time. This book showed a lot of family love. The family shared so much love, I was truly touch. In my opinion there was alot to be learned from this book. Velma had to accept who she was to move on happily in her life. The feeling Russ had for Velma were so unconditional. He accepted what Velma would not allow herself to do. I recommend this book to all. I enjoyed it.

After The Loving

Russ and Velma's story was wonderful. Russ won over Velma by just letting her know he cared and truly wanted to be with her,no matter what her size was. And Tara is such a sweetheart. I can't wait until September 2005 for Drake's story.

Two Thumbs Up for the Big Girls Doing IT!

I enjoyed this story very much. Being a plus size woman myself I could relate to the feelings of low self esteem that Velma had. If you have never been overweight, handicapped or suffer some other physical disability you wouldn't know what that person is feeling on the inside. Velma was lucky that that she found Russ, a man who loved her just the way she was, A beautiful, voluptuous woman. Having a sister that is tall, thin and beautiful had to have an effect on her psyche. I enjoyed this sequel that begins at the wedding of Alexis and Telford. Thanks Gwynne and I can't wait for Drake's story and more of Tara, Henry, Alexis and Telford in September 2005. Patsy Nelson
