Customer Reviews

WOW

The book was great. It really stayed true to the character of Jonathan. I couldn't put this book down. The only time I put it down was when I couldn't hold my eyes open any longer. I could read this book again and again. I hope and pray that there will be a second book.

Jonathan's Story

I absolutely loved this book...Got it on the 12th of Sept. and finished it by the 13th,my birthday...What a great present! The characters were right on the mark! I could actually visualize each scene,character and surroundings with Julia's descriptions. I loved the adventure and excitement building,the character interactions and the whole overall story. I am a huge Jammy fan and thought I'd hate seeing Jon move on but Aubrey's character was hard not to like and when Tammy lets it be known that she approves of Jon and Aubrey moving on together it made it that much easier to accept! Thank You for a well written book..

Life after "death"-the life of Guiding Lights Jonathan Randall w/ background from the show

Jonathan Randall's life was never easy. He is the biological son of a Prince who was raised by an alcoholic bully. The love of his cousin/wife Tammy Winslow helped him recover. During a break between him and Tammy, Jonathan had made a baby with Lizzy Spaulding the grandaughter of super rich Alan Spaulding. Alan Spaulding did not like Jonathan and did everything he could take baby Sarah from Jonathan. He went to far though when he tried to kill Jonathan and ended up murdering Tammy. After Tammy's death Jonathan ran his car off of a cliff to make it seem that he and Sarah died, but they didnt. The only person that knew he was really alive was his mother Reva Shayne. After several months Jonathan reached Tourmaline, California. He didnt want to stop but felt that Tammy was there with them in Tourmaline telling him to stay. Another factor was Aubrey Cross the daughter of Sherrif Zeke Cross. Jonathan doesnt want to get involved with her, but he is lonley, and she is good with Sarah. Will Alan Spaulding find out where Jonathan is? What will happen with Jonathan and Aubrey? Read Joanthan's Story

GL Fans Celebrate!

At last, Jonathan! I was so happy to hear they were putting out a book for Jonathan and it does not disappoint. Reva's anguish, Alan's evil, Aubrey's circumstances, and Jonathan's strength, determination, and love for Sarah all come out on the page. I didn't know what would happen when he lost Tammy, his soul mate, but a character like Jonathan can't let grief overwhelm him when he has Sarah to protect. Life triumphs. Jonathan rocks!

Love reading more of Jonathan's Story

I love this book because the author really captured Jonathan's character. Jonathan is passionate, tempermental, sarcastic, loving -- all the elements that made him a great character on Guiding Light are present. I especially enjoyed Jonathan's devotion to his daughter and his struggle to give her a better childhood than he experienced. The development of his relationship with Aubrey was carefully portrayed and respectful of Jonathan's grief for Tammy. And the Reva and Jonathan moments, though brief, were just right. I really enjoyed this book -- it definitely exceeded my expectations!
