A Thought-Provoking Novel

Lia, Rena, Jasmine, and Dee Dee are four friends that each yearn for something different in their lives. Lia is a young, slightly arrogant, successful attorney for Virgin Records. Lia has always been career driven and marriage is the furthest thing from her mind. But when two different men enter her life and tragedy strikes, Lia may gain a new perspective. Rena has been in a relationship with her boyfriend for four years. Rena has been longing for a walk down the aisle, but now she wonders if she's actually found "Mr. Right" after all. Jasmine has always used her looks to get what she wants out of men. Jasmine's life hits a curve ball when a good man enters her life. Will she feel worthy enough to accept his love? Dee Dee has a loving husband and child. Her life seems perfect until her very wealthy ex-boyfriend comes back into the picture. Will Dee Dee be willing to sacrifice her stable home for an old love?

I must admit that I really enjoyed this book. I found myself not wanting to put the book down. I would get to one point and try to stop, but then something shocking or exciting happened. I actually got a couple of co-workers to buy it because they saw me reading it everyday! The author describes each character in a way, in which you can visualize how they look, what they are wearing, how they smell, etc. The deatils of each scene and character were perfect. I think my favorite characters werw Jas and Lia. Jas reminded me off many people that I know and have encountered, so I could relate to many things she was saying. I didn't care for Lia in the beginning. She was rude and uppity and wore her pride on her sleeve. As the book went on and some difficult events happened in her life she finally let some walls down and came into her own. I was left wanting more at the end of the book, that's why I'm so excited there is a sequel coming out soon!!!!!!

Definitely a MUST READ!

I really enjoyed reading this book. It had me going from page 1. I finished it in less than 3 days. I just could not put it down. There was something about every character that I was able to relate to. I would recommend this to ANYONE! I bought a few copies and gave them to friends! I can't wait for the sequel. I look forward to whatever else the author has to offer.
