Another Great Read

I just finished this book and it is absolutely wonderful. Of course how two intelligent people can be so misunderstanding for most of the story is something else indeed. Of course it’s easy to look at the circumstances from a different angle and think the other should get the right message. So, read the book and find out if these two souls get together. I’m sure you’ll love to book too.

Who is next is this series?

Juan and his brother Carlos are Mexican by birth but adopted into a family with many orphans. Because of racial slurs as a young child. Juan did not feel worthy to marry a white woman. Good story, was very glad to read that Juan and Susan got hitched.

Wonderful story

Greg the first book in this series was amazing and Juan is even better. Pain, violence, culture difference and trust takes us on a wonderful adventure. I highly recommend you read this story and the others in this series and all titles by Kathleen

Kathleen Ball is a synonym for a happy read

I find it fun but exasperating that Kathleen's characters are just as obtuse as the folks I know in real life.
But it all comes right by the end.

I enjoyed this book

I really enjoyed this story. Juan and Sonia are a great couple. It was interesting to see how the story line would go. However, the editing is not the best. There are many editing mistakes that took away from the story for me.
