Sandra Ross's book Moving on with Ross is an extremely heartwarming story, especially when you are looking for a good story idea and theme well written, and you want to pass the time with characters with who you can relate. Portia is no stranger to heartbreak - she lost her husband and her unborn child in one horrible twist of fate, and she is spending her days existing instead of living.Enter Brock, friend, confidante and lover. A charming, warm, humorous, and kindhearted man, he is just the sort of man with who Portia can dream about a second chance to love and a happily ever after. But then there is somebody vicious around who intends to target Portia and cause her more emotional and mental suffering. Will Portia manage  to get her second chance of happiness with Brock when there is someone who does not want to see her have another happily ever after?Now let me tell you the points which impressed me most about this book. The style in which Sandra weaves our emotions through the written words makes one feel almost as if you can touch  Portia's anger, feeling of helplessness, and sense of loss. On the other hand, there is Brock to laugh with her and encourage her to start enjoying life again, when he is there and around to love and  to support her. But then, there is little bit, which I would have liked Sandra to have included in the story. Who is Brock, is he a family friend, or did they meet after she had been widowed? I would also have liked a description of Portia and Brock, so that I could "visualize" them as they interacted with each other, and so on.Nevertheless, this book is a good choice for all those readers who would like to read about a second chance at love with Portia and Brock.One almost finds oneself cheering for Brock, especially when he decides to go after that miscreant who has caused pain to Portia. Yes, there are warmhearted heroes like him even in real life and one knows that Portia is going to be loved, cherished and protected by her Brock till the end of her days. So one can smile when one reads the end of this book, especially if one intends to enjoy some moments in imagining what happens next.Nevertheless, I am waiting for more books by Sandra Ross! I give her a 4.5 star, because like I said I wanted more in the matter of Portia's and Brock's past, background, descriptions, etc... But then, I am fussy that way!
