FOREVER MY LADY by Jeff Rivera

Kimber An here. I sped-read FOREVER MY LADY. Although it is a love story, it's not your run-of-the-mill Romance novel. If you can set aside your expectations of that genre and read this multi-cultural story for its worth, I'm sure you'll enjoy its power. There is violence and swear words, but nothing I couldn't handle and you know how sensitive I am. It all fits within the context of the story and enhances the character development.
