Lori M. Jones

An intriguing story line about how a near death experience can shape events in your life. When Jezebel is involved in a train crash and pulled out of the wreckage by a mystery man her whole life is turned upside down and to fulfil her hearts desire she has to find him regardless of the outcome. The author takes us on a roller coaster ride of emotions and along with it the trial and tribulations of love and the secrets that it holds.

The story is an easy one to follow with short chapters which I always prefer. The characters carry and display true human feelings which is a tribute to the wrirters style.

An enjoyable read which any mystery/suspense reader will enjoy.… (lisätietoja)

Lori M. Jones is a genius! This is not your standard boy meets girl, girl falls in love story. Throw in a teenage daughter, a gay soon to be ex-husband, and a smoking hot new famous boyfriend and you've got yourself a story to hold your attention for hours.

With gay marriage such a hot button issue here in Nevada (and many other states), I liked how Jones shows us the effects of hiding in the closet can do to not only the gay person, but those around them. On of the main takeaways that I got from this novel was "be true to yourself." I know it sounds corny, but corny is often 100% true. Loving, being honest with, and caring for yourself has to come before you can truly care for others. It is lesson many struggle their entire life to learn and this book hammers it home without jamming it down.… (lisätietoja)

It 's a modern and contemporary comedy, on second chance in life, the courage to get up after a nasty fall. Amanda is a real woman, strong and fragile at the same time, a protective mother who will be able to find the thread of her life. Bradley is the ideal guy, gentle and sweet, sexy and a great champion. Derrick is really irritating, offensive to the ex-wife
In the background to the novel and to make the story even more interesting and exciting football matches. The final remains uncertain until the end and makes you want to read it all in one breath.
It 's a great book, funny and romantic .....… (lisätietoja)

This is the first book I have ever read of Lori’s and I must say, WOW! Only 4 pages into the book and I was STUNNED. I did NOT see that coming! It had been such a while between the time I applied to this book tour & actually started reading it, I completely forgot what was going to happen! I made the mistake of starting this book at 10:00 at night. I NEVER stay up past 10:30, so it was really hard for me to put it down! Amanda’s husband, Derrick, left her for another man. She meets Star Quarterback for the Pittsburgh Steelers through work & they hit it off.
The way Derrick treated Amanda, I came to really dislike him. He reminded me WAY too much of my biological father, who I have NOTHING to do with! I mean, I saw some really really BIG resemblances between the 2 men! I never went through having parents who got a divorce. My mom met my dad when I was around 8 & they married when I was 10. Enough about me, though! One thing I really liked about Amanda, she tried to make her 15 year old daughter, Lilly, understand that her fathers sexuality did not make him a bad man & that he didn’t choose to be gay.
From the time Ms. Jones introduced us to Bradley Errickson, I could tell sparks were going to fly between him & Amanda. There is a 12 year difference in their age, but in my opinion, that’s a no big deal type of thing! Age is only a number!
This book had me laughing out loud many times & my husband would look at me like I was goofy!
Fantastic read!… (lisätietoja)
