Love Conquers All

Format:Mass Market Paperback
Secret Desire was a truly wonderful novel -- I just couldn't put it down. I have been reading Ms. Forster since I discovered her novel "Sealed with a Kiss" which remains one of my all time favorites. Secret Desire as I recall is the first novel in which Ms. Forster has done a sequel. The lives of both Kate Middleton a bookstore owner and Luke Hickson a police detective was an interesting one filled with a lot of initial unanswered questions which Ms. Forster concluded with all the answers coming to light. Kate and Luke met under very unusual circumstances but their attraction to each other allowed them both to overcome the devastation of marriages through the deaths of their spouses to once again find that special person. Each had obstacles to overcome in order to reach that ultimate achievement but in the end, Love, Trust and Honesty came through. I recommend this book highly as it offers much to its readers. Enjoy!

Good Read

Format:Mass Market Paperback
After the death of her loveless husband Kate decides to pack up and relocate. She is afraid of threats that her late husband has made about her in-laws. Once she arrives she opens her own bookstore. Within the first week a man comes in and ties her and her son up looking for unknown items. While driving home Luke can't believe his eyes when he sees this.
Once he rescues Kate they begin to take action in protecting her and her child. The relationship starts out rocky because they both have been hurt in prior relationships.
Although the action starts pretty fast there are some slow periods when you just want to know who is out to get Kate and why. But all in all you will enjoy this book as well as all of Gwynne's other novels.

Secret Desire

I love you Gwynne but this one was rather weak. As much as I loved Amanda and Marcus in Beyond Desire I couldn't wait to read Luke's story; unfortunately I was disappointed. I know that I'm biased---being the ex-wife of a police officer but you lost me with the lack of emotion from Kate and her son after the robbery in the very beginning of the book! Kate and her son have been tied up all night no one knows that their there and when they are blessed enough to be found by Luke---there are no tears, no fear, shaking, shock, embarrassment or need to use the restroom---nothing! But you start flirting and go out to eat; and then your rescuer has the nerve to correct your son's behavior because he doesn't want his milk! Please, YOU JUST MET--and HELLO-they've just been tied up all night!! There isn't a "real" black woman alive that would let a man she just met start telling her what her kids need after only knowing him an hour---I don't care how bad her kids are! Luke didn't come across as warm and loving like he didn't in Beyond Desire; he was to arrogant for me and played too many head games!
