Humorous Love Story

It's not often that you find a romance novel that makes you both smile and laugh as you remember similar situations in your own love life. Deb's fear of trusting again and need to believe that Mario had changed his cheating ways really hit close to home. The reference to Mario's wife "taking off her shoe" had many members of my book club in tears from laughing. Many shared stories of "taking off their shoe" or witnessing a friend do the same. I enjoyed the references to some of our local Chicago sites. I really enjoyed the story and look forward to more books from Ms. Keaton.

How Do I Trust Again?

I like the stories that address when someone has been betrayed and they have to learn to trust again with the love of their heart. (It's risky business) Ms Keaton, with her debut novel does just that with Deborah Anderson betrayed by her boyfriend Mario, meets Darrin Wilson, who at first sight knows she is the woman for him. But trust and giving herself to love again does not come easy for Deborah. Ms. Keaton does an excellent job by giving us her version of how letting go of that fear, and letting the love just do what it is suppose to do. Darrin Wilson is definetly the one to give Deborah Anderson the test of her life. The presentation of this story, is an easy read, funny, loving and sincere which all adds up to a very good book to read. I truly enjoyed reading a book about sites and familiar places in Chicago where I onced resided. Congratulations Ms. Keaton on your first novel and looking forward to many more novels from you!

All I Ask

All Deb Anderson wanted to do was go to her friend's barbecue and have a good time. But enter one Darrin Wilson, a nice guy really, but Deb was having no part of his niceness. Darrin, a computer firm owner, was entranced with this beautiful woman who apparently didn't want any entanglements, but he was determined to gain her trust. This story was a good exploration of relationships involving matters of trust, past issues, and self-love. This was worth picking up.

Very appealing

This book about Deborah and Darrin was full of excitement and truth. It tells how it takes a long time to overcome heartache but nonetheless it can be conquered. Love will prevail.
