Nothing is as sweet as a love which transcends barriers of perceived differences, and this is illustrated in Tara Chevrestt's Love Request.  In this emotional read, Ciara reluctantly heeds a friend's advice and opens a Facebook account so she could join the social scene once again.  After all, she `d spent the last few years taking care of her terminally ill mother, thus having very little time for any meaningful, romantic relationships.  She's compelled to look up her childhood crush, Hunter, and requests his friendship.Hunter's life is presently in turmoil since he's in the midst of a divorce and his twin sister demands much of his time.  However, what happens between Ciara and Hunter gives readers the hope that true love can stand the tests of time and distance.Chevrestt touches on issues such as bullying, death, divorce, dealing with hearing impairment, love and family relationships.  In addition, she depicts Ciara's point of view so genuinely, I truly believe not even the most insensitive person who reads this story could ever torment, belittle or disregard a differently-able person ever again.  For those reasons, I highly recommend this book.--- I received 'Love Request' from the author in exchange for an honest review. ---
