Best book I've read this year!!!!!!

The book took me by surprise in the first chapter, as to what kind of book it was. I'm not a fan of sad romance, someone dying and way to much sex. This book excited me from the beginning until the end. I reread some parts to under stand just what the writer was really saying. Brock's character in the beginning was a little sad and some men have enough pride for three men. In his case he was just to much at being the strong man and it came back to bite him in the ass. But, I could see my husband doing the samething. Then I got mad at Ericka for not understanding him, her husband after all he had been to her during her dark days of trying to put her life together. But the over all meaning I came away with this story, is that, If you are in a commitment relationship such as marriage, it has to be open communication for everything. Most men think they can't ever be weak. A lot of romance novels never show the weak side of a man, always the mancho, good looking,and rich. Men do get sick, they have feeling, they are not always drop dead gergeous and some just work for a living. In this book Kimberly White expressed it all and I'm so greatful to have read it. Women need to understand what men want more understanding and the same with women. I think she did a wonderful job showing the good and the bad of a marriage. The writer that call the book a punk, what is her relationship with her man?????

This Year's Heavy Hitter 2009!

Wow! This one took me by surprise! Dr. Brock Johnson leaves his Dr. Wife Erica after getting a cancer diagnosis. What this story does is represent what a man goes thru with the diagnosis of testicualr cancer while also being a romance....It's push & pull all the way for this couple. The male portrayal in this story of fearing what an illness can take away is aoustounding...This is a love story and a support story. With a great twist involvng another man - I Need More is more than that! This book is not a quickie! I did love Ginnifer and her living arrangement with two lovers...whew! That can be another story on its own! Ms. White delivers in this story real topics that are unforgetable. This book should be on EVERY book club list - the discussions about this book are ENDLESS!!!

Expect the Unexpected With This One!

Let me start by saying that this book is a page turner from beginning to end! Dr. Erica Johnson is stunned when her husband of three years walks out on her without any explanation. Little does she know that Brock's reason for leaving has to do with the personal pain that results from his own recent health discovery. Yet, when Erica finds comfort within the friendship of a handsome co-worker Brock realizes that he must somehow overcome his own insecurities to fight for his marriage. The book begins with Erica presenting him with divorce papers... After the first few pages this story had me riveted. The author does a great job of giving us this couple's history as the story unfolds so that we can truly see why their love is worth fighting for. However, somewhere along the way it seems the author loses focus, which results in this story becoming extremely frustrating and overly dramatic towards the end. Here, it appears that Erica's personality seems to change and she becomes selfish and almost unrecognizable. Whereas Brock almost appears pathetic with his threats to the other man and his inability to move beyond his own insecurities. Two secondary story lines about her best friend's love life (think ménage à trois) and Brock's mother's romance further shift the story away from the main characters at some of the most inopportune times. Then an unexpected psychopath emerges, further complicating everything. In spite of this story's flaws, I gave it a rating of 4 because I could not put it down until I knew how it ended. The sex scenes are steamy, the characters are quirky, and the love is real. If you are ready for this emotional roller coaster ride then I suggest you check out this book. However, my favorite love story from this author is Forever After, which showcases her writing ability at its best.
