Life is about choices...

Highland Beach is where our main characters begin to make some important life choices in the romantic and serene novel, SOUTHERN COMFORT. Sandra Kitt has written a romantic story set in Maryland on the historic town of Highland Beach. With our two main characters, we find the beach offers a refuge from the pain of the past and a beacon of light for the future. Rachel Givens is a jewelry designer, whose career is taking off by leaps and bounds. As a child, she visited Highland Beach with her family and made friends with a special woman, Julia Winters. Julia was a former star that took Rachel under her wings during her summer visits and instilled in her that she could do and be anything she wanted, it was all up to her. Their friendship lasted even after Rachel's family abruptly stopped vacationing on Highland Beach. So it was a surprise when Rachel discovered that the woman she held in such high esteem had died. Lucas Monroe Scott is the son Julia Winters never discloses to others. Lucas is an attorney who decides to change his career path to follow his dream of being a musician. Playing the saxophone gives him more pleasure than litigation and courtroom fights. When he discovers his mother has died, he is torn. How is he to grieve for a woman he did not know and one who essentially gave him away a long time ago? How does he reconnect to the portion of his life that has been lost for over thirty years? The answer may lie in Julia's final bequest. Julia, wanting to make amends for the hurt she caused her son, deeds her home to him and Rachel. They must share more than just the Highland Beach home; they must share the connection between them and Julia. What they find is so much more enlightening. From being adversaries, to exploring the sparks that have ignited, the couple finds SOUTHERN COMFORT. Sandra Kitt has written a novel paced with a caressing hand of romance. She builds the character's romance in a way to engage the reader into falling in love also. She takes the beauty of the Maryland beach town and lets the waves and sand be the backdrop for cultivating a relationship. She enables the readers to understand Lucas' hurt and how important Rachel's presence was needed for there to be forgiveness. Both characters must learn about forgiveness and learn that life is about choices. As always, Sandra Kitt deals with multicultural characters in a way that is not stereotypical, but honest portrayals of the obstacles they face. With emotional depth and honest romance, the author has woven a sensuous and captivating love story. Reviewed by Cashana Seals of The RAWSISTAZ™ Reviewers

Ultimate Feel Good Book

Sophisticated love story between two African-Americans. Very refreshing. Intensely romantic. Fell in love with Lucas Monroe Scott. Can't wait to see the movie on BET. If a movie isn't already planned, why not???
