I can honestly say that this was definitely a grownup fairytale. I liked that it wasn't about perfectly beautiful and wealthy people that don't act like the rest of us. There were new friendships formed, kids being kids, adultry, cheating and healing throughout the book. I ws happy to see the heroine was 59 year old heavy set black woman who had been through life and divorce and raising kids. She finds a white man that is so alpha that sparks fly intensely and they give each other a wide birth at first. She loves his 3 mixed kids before discovering that she loves him too. I applaud her for not putting up with the crap and still staying there for the boys.Be prepared for some hard truths of life, love and parent hood. There is no perfect parent, lover or friends. I don't agree with cheating but have an understanding of how things can go when someone has been hurt. No excuses, its wrong and that is why I gave it 4 stars besides a few grammatical errors.The ending was open ended which is how life is at times. I wanted some closure or a direction for where they were headed but in a way it left me to finish it off how I saw fit. This is a very real and well written book.I look forward to reading more from this author.
