Embraced by Love
Josie and Cooper were one of those couples everyone envied: gorgeous, successful, and so deeply devoted. Even though Josie tended to work too hard, putting in long hours to lift her fledgling company off the ground, and Cooper could be wild and unpredictable, the two complimented one another. It seemed their love would last forever.

While I enjoyed reading this story of a couple who is struggling with their marriage; I found that I enjoy Ms. Brockmann's series books more.
I didn't much care for it. The characters were not well done and she didn't know much about working in computer programming.
Josie needed to grow up. She was so hard hearted with the kids after her brother's death. Cooper is the MAN!
The story was great it was kinda back amd forth
alot. It got kinda annoying sometimes, but it was still great.

Little out of the ordinary for Brockmann, and a very realistic writing about marriage relationships.
I think I would have liked this book more if the main characters hadn't been so over the top. She was sooo work devoted and he was sooo committed to having fun and enjoying life, made me a little crazy. Especially since they knew that about each other from the beginning. Unfortunately plot development is a little slow resulting in the same things getting rehashed over and over. While the story eventually moves forward towards the middle it's a bit too late and you'd rather just smack them for be...more
It was a good, light read.

This book might not appeal to many Brockmann fans. It's a different type of book than her Troubleshooters and TDD series. Embraced By Love is more of a traditional romance about two people in love who find their ideals and goals for the future clashing and almost destroying their relationship. If you're a Brockmann fan looking for something suspenseful and similar to her popular books, then you may want to skip this one.
This was a reprint of one of Brockmann's earlier work and it shows. While it was more of a "traditional" romance than I would have liked, it was still different enough to be interesting. And Brockmann's clear writing style does stand out. I still prefer her later books that are more action oriented.
A little slow in places but overall a very good read. Like all Suzanne Brockman's books, it's well worth your time to read it.
About a married couple who finds themselves with two children and now what? Strong female lead.
