This book was my first foray into interracial romance stories, I didn't know what to expect but was pleasantly surprised. The story from beginning to end had strong and endearing characters. Serefina is a no nonsense kind of girl who found that she could be vulnerable in the arms of the right man. Taber was the kind of man every woman should have in their lives, a strong and caring man who was totally focused on his woman. Even though each had been burned from previous relationships they managed to forge a bond. What I like most about this book is that Serefina was not a whiny annoying woman, she was strong and spoke her mind. Taber knew what he wanted and went after it, he handled her but didn't come off as pushy. What I also like is that you didn't see them as a white man and black woman, you saw them as two people who were strongly attracted to one another and who should be together. This was by far a good read and Aliyah Burke is now on my list of favorite writers.
