Love brings awareness

This is such a heartfelt read and very emotional. Not many authors would've taken a chance on a topic this HUGE but you did and knocked it out the park!! This book brought so much understanding and knowledge on this topic!! Even though all odds were against Ava, she found the one thing that she wanted after her husband's death which is love!

I don't even know where to start.... Amazing storytelling!!
Unexpected insight into a situation I didn't see coming. The message alone is worth a read!
Ava endured so much pain, due to circumstances beyond her control. Isaacs love was heartwarming, Anthonys ignorance was heartbreaking. Thank you from your readers for going outside the box!!

The message!!

The message in this book alone is a reason that this book needs to be read. This story was so touching and educational. Issac was a true king and went after his queen. I wanted to smack Anthony on so many occasions but that’s how people react to situations their not educated on. Mel Dau you keep expanding your writing skills with each book. Keep on writing these educational and inspiring stories.

Wow

My heart broke for Ava. This was an amazing story about learning all the information you can before you judge someone. I’m so glad things ended up the way the did for her. The information you receive in this book will change your outlook on this certain subject and life in general. Everyone should read this book.

Amazing book

I loved this book. It was jaw dropping good.
It teaches don't judge a book by its cover. Ava had been through so much and she deserved a little bit happiness and I was happy Isaac came along and gave that to her. I laughed I cried but most of all I learned something.

Awesome Story

This may be my favorite book of yours thus far. I cried, I laughed and I learned. You never know what some one is going through or how your words/actions will impact them. So choose wisely!!!

Informative!!!!

Although the story started off about Love lost, it was also educational I was amazed at the knowledge displayed throughout the book, it also highlighted ignorance. Great job...
