Jasmine Deveraux and Darius Hamilton, two talented writers met by chance at a book fair in New York City. From that meeting they spawned a collaboration that would take the literary community by storm and developed a love affair that could have been written for the Lifetime Movie Network. Will the two reach their dream of a multimillion dollar book deal or will their personal hurdles cause them to walk away from it all?
According to Merriam-Webster dictionary the definition for the word partner is: A person with whom you share an intimate relationship with, one member of a couple. In this definition for me the key word is intimate which is also defined as: To communicate delicately and indirectly. We all want relationships where we have someone to share communication delicately and indirectly with and when you find that, that is the person with whom you call your soul mate.
Jasmine Deveraux is a beautiful woman both inside and out. Jasmine has the ability to turn heads wherever she goes because of her outer beauty, but to know her heart will make you stop in your tracks. Jasmine followed her heart and married her high school sweetheart and life was grand, or so she thought. She thought that Eric was her true love but what she didn't know at the time and Eric didn't realize is that her heart belonged to someone else ~ her writing. Will Jasmine be able to share herself with the two or will one of them fall by the wayside?
Darius Hamilton comes from a rough past, his father was killed when he was young and that left him open to easy influences. Darius's cousin Chris was who he gravitated towards and the streets were his life that is until the streets took Chris away from Darius. With a second major loss in Darius's life, Darius did the only thing that he could to keep himself from going insane ~ he fell deep into his poetry and short stories. Writing being such a release for Darius, his words so beautiful and he himself being a very handsome man it is easy to see how a woman could fall in love with. The question is - who is it that they really love, Darius or his words?
The Write Lover is a love story for the times but it is not mushy or sappy like typical romantic novels. This story encompasses in these two individuals lives and shows us what it is like to live through pain and hurt and to let it use you to make something so beautiful as a result. This story flows and keeps you so engrossed in their stories, their lives, that you will not want to put it down. When you get to the end, the only thing you want to do is pick it back up and start over because you have enjoyed the experience that much. I enjoy the writings of Brooklen Borne and I look forward to reading much more from him in the future. Congratulations Brooklen Borne for making me cry, something others have tried but never succeeded in.
