1: ***Let's Eat Drink And Fall In Love!!!***
What can I say I love to read about couples in love. The chemistry between Lydia & Kennedy and Victoria & Quintin was special. This is a 2-in-1 novel so when you read it you won't miss much. Quintin and Lydia are siblings so they show up in each other's storyline. I like the sense of family in both stories and especially the adoption of children in both. All in all this whole book all 400 and something pages was great. I enjoyed it.

2: Masterpeice
I really loved this book; for me it confirmed that there is such a thing as real love and that eventhough everything is not perfectly laid out the impossible is just as real as the possible. Excellent read.

3: If you can't stand the heat...
Tiring of politics in the kitchen of the five-star restaurant where she is employed, twenty-seven-year-old Lydia Lord knows it's time to move on. With aspirations to launch a gourmet styled restaurant, she resigns from her position and goes back to Baltimore to get organized.
A painful connection with a professional athlete left a bad taste in Lydia's heart, especially for athletes, so her plans do not include romance; she needs to devote all of her attention to her business. To test her ability to supervise a restaurant staff, Lydia volunteers her talents as Head Chef at Camp Six Nations, a summer camp for disadvantaged kids. But her plans take a slight detour when she runs into former football star Kennedy Fletcher. Will she remember her resolve and stay focused?
Former Baltimore Ravens' running back, Ken Fletcher, turned down a multimillion-dollar contract and abruptly left football while at the top of his game. Tired of fortune-seeking 'groupies', and no longer wanting a commitment, Ken only dallies in temporary seductions. He is now a savvy businessman who wants to help underprivileged kids. But the defiant, independent, and sultry chef, who has come to camp, may force him to rethink his resolve about women and relationships.
ALL MY TOMORROWS is a connecting book from the Lord family history, the Lords were first introduced in a debut novel, Home Sweet Home. ALL MY TOMORROWS highlights Ms. Alers' ability to tell a solid story with enough romantic drama to capture the romance in reader's hearts. There is a secondary story that centers on foster care and adoption programs. To bring readers up to date with the Lords, Ms. Alers included Home Sweet Home in this two-story book, it will be a separate review.

5: All My Tomorrows, Indeed!!!!!!!
This was a very good read. It was two stories in one book. The first story was about Lydia Lord, a woman in search of something better in her life, feed up with her job she quits and then volunteers at a camp for disadvantaged youth. Kennedy Fletcher is a ex football player, he walked away from a mulitmillion dollar contract seeking something worthwhile in his life. When the two meet at Camp Six Nations, the attraction is instant, but can they put to rest the past to find a love that's everlasting. The second book is about Quintin Lord, a photographer who is tried of the bevy of beautiful women he has shared his bed with, he's looking for something more permanant in his life. Victoria Jones is a women who is still trying to heal the wounds left by her ex, so when she meets Quintin she's drawn to him instantly. The only problem is she has a secret that may put an end to the great relationship that has developed between her and Quintin. Both books are very good, but read Quintin's story first because it is the first in the continuing series.
