THE SONG IS FOREVER
She'd loved him for longer than she cared to remember, loved him when he was a struggling young musician and loved him when he was a star. But everything Kathryn had shared with Brent McQueen was in the past. There was nothing left of their marriage except their daughter and a half-forgotten song on the radio.
Suddenly Brent was back in her life, and this time he said he really needed her. With a murderer after him and nowhere else for him to go, Kathryn couldn't turn him away. But as they ran together from a faceless killer, that long-ago song came back to Kathryn, carrying with it memories that just wouldn't fade away ....

The H is back from the dead, (he faked it,) in this one and not in a good way - he is after some missing diamonds and the h is drawn into his mess all over again.

Okay read the book and in an conflicted. Did he cheat on het? She mentioned that it wasn't the cause of their divorce but she said the blondes came later?? But his thoughts while never clarifying anything, seemed like he hadn't got over her and that he was stuck in the past. I hate when it's not clear but I guess who cares. They were divorced because he thought he caused her miscarriage 3 years prior when they had hard sex. Plus they lost a child too?? I was so confused. She was dating another man but they didn't have sex either.I give up on caring about celibacy and cheating. No one else cares. I shouldn't let it bother me. Just a stupid old woman with issues. 🙈🙉🙊
The story was good and there was a mystery too. People in his band were dying and his boat exploded and the h thought he was dead. But he snuck into her room and they kissed and it didn't seem like they had been apart three years with no contact. The bad guy surprised me and I loved how they loved each other. He was still walking away at the end but of course He changed his mind. I never doubted he loved her or her him.

H.G has always been my go - to authors when I'm looking for some angsty romance books.
So even though this one was an oldie - and the rating wasn't a goodie, I decided to read it.
True enough, the angst was there and ever present. I usually do not go for older couple (this one had a fifteen-year-old daughter together) but H.G proved that she could pull the chemistry and sexiness and the attraction all in a book.
A short one, that is (usually, her books would go as long as 500 pages or so); this one was a mere 200 pages.
I loved the couple's history - albeit painful - however, I would have loved to see more groveling from the Hero. I mean, he left his wife when she was hurting. Regardless of his inability to comprehend what she needed at that time, he should have stayed with her - through thick and thin.

Meh.
I haven't read any of the author's contemporaries and am just not feeling the urge to hunt down any more.
It's a second chance romance brought about by a friend of the H's being a dirty cop and targeting people he thought might know something.
Issues I had - H was an overbearing asshole, h all but fell over with her legs in the air. That pretty much sums it up.
They had divorced 3 years previous after a) losing a child to SIDS and b) her having a bad miscarriage. Essentially he decided he'd been too rough w/sex so stopped touching her so after a year of this, she filed for divorce.
They never really talked it over; just his demanding she sleep with him, her complying irritably, etc.
Ends with an epilogue where she's 5 months pregnant, they'd remarried, and the Dr had mailed results back of the sex of said kid. Seeing as how the book was released in 1990, and my "helpful" OB's technician had just blurted out that my firstborn was a boy while doing an ultrasound 2 years previous...

OMG this book was absolutely amazing. This book was a page turning Harlequin classic romance that I couldn't put down until the end. They were supposed to be forever. Kathryn had loved Brent McQueen before he was a rock star, when he was just a struggling musician and they were just two people in love. But now their marriage was in tatters, torn beyond repair. Then Brent's boat was destroyed, killing a man on board. Brent survived the explosion, but someone was after him. The only person he trusted was the woman he'd been trying to forget his wife. Brent needed Kathryn's help to find what the killer wanted before he took thr one thing Brent couldn't live without. This book had also included a bonus book. Solitary Soldier by Debra Webb. I would highly reccomend this book. I had checked this book out of my local library.

Genre - Thriller
Forever My Love
Kathryn O'Hara's ex-husband, Brent McQueen, returns after several years of painful separation. He needs to protect her and their daughter from the murderer who is after him.
---My Thoughts---
Kathy was a strong woman who wanted her husband by her side in spite of the pain she went through.
Forever My Love shows the gap lack of communication causes. Kathy and Brent wouldn't have separated if Brent didn't silently blame himself and leave. However, Kathy was willing to stand by him and find the murderer.
Lessons:
1. The survival of any relationship is dependent on proper communication in darkest times.
2. Love isn't enough to sustain a relationship.
3. Demand so much out of life.
4. You deserve someone wonderful.
6. The enemy is often within and in plain sight.

Not usually into straight forward romance stories but after some of the stuff I have been reading lately this was a delight. The story telling was engaging and yes predictable but this was a couple who had been married for fifteen years and separated after the death of a child only to be reunited when their surviving daughter is at risk. Is it a cheesy romance? well yes but it is also fun and lighthearted and the story grew to a satisfactory ending. Not going to say it is a great piece of literature but it is entertaining and finished in a couple of hours rather than dragging out for eternity.

Ack
I usually love Heather Graham’s books but it was all I could do to finish this one. None of the characters were remotely likable or relatable, the situation and how it was handled ridiculous and the baddie was apparent from their first introduction. God I can’t tell you how much I dislike Brent and Kathy and their seriously unhealthy relationship

This is a good book with a good story. Hot and juicy with a story line beyond love. The mystery is interesting but falls flat at the end. It's like a reason for the murders was thrown together just to get to an ending. I had to reread a few pages just to understand why it happened and how Brent figured out the numbers. Still not sure if I understand it.
Some novels need to be a little longer in order to get a proper plot and conclusion together. Cramming in everything within a certain amounts of pages just hinders a good story.

Review haiku:
Divorced, still in love.
Musician protects ex-wife.
Sleeps with her, of course.

The clues in the mystery did not lead to a specific villain. It could have been any one of the police officers. Disappointing. The love story was also disappointing.
