Customer Reviews

I cried!!!

I started collecting Black romance novels about 6 months ago. I read on average three a week. At the end of this book I found tears in my eyes! This love story was so touching. I like the fact that girlfriend had beauty and a REAL body. God... I can only pray to find a man who'd adore me like Donald adored Taylor. Their love making was HOT,EMOTIONAL and BEAUTIFUL!!! I too hope that Bette Ford will continue telling the story of Scott and Jenna.

sexy, sensual, erotic

This book is worthy of a third read. Normally I give my books to charity, not this one. Donald is a man who is not afraid of going after what he wants despite rejection. Taylor is a woman who is confidant in her career but not in love. My only complaint was with Taylors insecurities. She used excuses to avoid her natural desires... Bette Ford description is erotic, sensual, sexy. She gives me something to strive for.

LOVED IT!

This book was my favorite of all of the Bette Ford romances that I have read...I loved this book, it would make an excellent movie! The fictitious character of NBA star Donald, made you wish all of the NBA stars were as grounded and down-to-earth as he was. I liked the fact that he had mellowed to the point where he did not let his ego rule him. Instead of going after some narcissistic, ego-tripping, super-model, actress, or diva, he went fell for and went after a regular sister like Taylor who was working to have her own and didn't want him for his money. Taylor's hesitancy in believing someone of Donald's star status would be interested in her was so realistic. His pursuit of her so sweet and romantic...he didn't want his status to scare her off. Their eventual love scenes were SIZZLING! This is a book that you will want to read again and again...I have.

Simply Wonderful

The story of Donald and Taylor was my introduction into the field of African-American romance novels. And what an intro it was. Donald Williams is a man most women dream about. Tall, dark, and sexier than any one man has a right to be. I read this book in two days. Bette Ford put her best foot out there with this one. It was filled with love and passion. I enjoyed myself from the 1st page. I was truly sad to see the book end. I just wanted to read more and more about this interesting duo. I implore all who haven't read it to treat yourself. To those who have...read it again! I wish there were more stars to add...5 just isn't high enough rating.

Relentless Love

The story line was an excellent portrayal of a man and woman who thought love wasn't an intricate part of their lives. Taylor and Donald had both put their hearts away, substituting their careers and family for the love they couldn't find. Then Taylor walked into his life, releasing his captive heart. This voluptuous beauty had ignited a smouldering flame in Donald that turned into a raging fire that could only be extinguished by her passionate touch.Taylor, a woman who had no use for a man who she felt had unrealistic influence over her brother's future, slowly unbridled her feelings of uncertainty about Donald, and allowed herself to discover that a mans deep and enchanting love and erotic nature could release all her inhibitions and wash away the hurt and fear that had locked her heart away.Through Taylor and Donald's intimate and erotic discoveries of each other, nothing but love could prevail.I thoroughly enjoyed Bette's novel and plan to find previous novels and definitely keep my eyes and computer tuned to catch all her new ones.
