November 9, 2020Priceless is one of my favorite titles. You should never judge a book by its cover, literally. This story unravels the complex life of a man and a woman who in the end finds the family, friends, and love of a lifetime.

Don't Judge A Book...
Keisha McKenzie is looking for someone; that certain someone to spend the rest of her life with. But she won't settle for just anyone. She's got a checklist. He's got to be ambitious. He has to have substance, interest in family and be willing to give back using time and money. Though the security guard at her job, who makes her melt with his presence, has the total package - tall, dark and handsome - she doubts he can meet her other qualifications. After all, he's a security guard! Is Keisha looking a gift horse in the mouth?
Wendell Russell is a hardworking and determined young man. He's put himself through law school all the while working as a security guard as a means to an end. All his hard work and perseverance has paid off as he's passed the bar exam and secured a job with a local firm. With time running out, will he work up the courage to ask the successful Keisha out?
Ann Clay's "Priceless" was a cute and charming story. I enjoyed the chemistry between the two main characters. Also, I liked the fact that they came from two very different backgrounds and the struggle for them to mesh was realistic. "Priceless" is an enjoyable read and I recommend to lovers of romance.

Great story ...buy it!!
This was really a great story...it was nice and long...and interesting. I enjoyed reading about Keshia and Wendell's relationship and how they both blossomed individually. I like how the author made Wendell the vulnerable one in the relationship and showed how Keshia wanted to defend and protect without making Wendell look weak...which is much different from some stories because most of the time it's the woman that's vulnerable and the guy defends and protects. I wish I could give an explanation as to what I am getting at but I will only give away the story...and I don't want to ever do that. Anyways you will not be disappointed if you choose to purchase this book

I absolutely loved the story and the characters. The editing left me grinding my teeth, but there's no doubt that Ann Clay is an excellent storyteller.
The cultured, professional heroine has problems with the security guard she's flirting with. Ann Clay showed the prejudice and ridiculousness of class distinctions in a way that made the characteristics. The hero had a lot of problems from his poor upbringing, but by the end he managed to resolve them. The way he managed his life was inspiring. There was lots of emotion in this book.
