Summary: A very good read.
Review: I just so happen to pick this gem up at a library book sale. I never heard of the book, nor the author but it's title alone intrigued me, since I myself has been involved in an interracial relationship for the past 5 years (and counting :-)
This was a very moving as well as an enlightening book. I definitely recommend this for anyone pursuing an interracial relationship or even considering one. Actually I recommend this book to everyone, after all we are all of one race, and that race is called humanity.

Summary: Beautiful Story
Review: The story of a white lady who marries a black South African immigrant, this story is a very genuine, heartfelt account of two people from two different cultures who cross the race line and despite all the odds against them, have a very loving and successful marriage. Everyday trials are emphasised as well as the cultural problems, "going public", reactions from black women, and so on. Each chapter has two parts: Gail's point of view and Mark's point of view. It is a very interesting book not only for mixed-ethnicity marriages, but for everyone else as well. Highly recommended.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: EXCELLENT BOOK!
Review: This book brought some of the inter-racial relationship difficulties to life. The characters used their true feelings and emotions while expressing their concerns for their situation. I was fully able to relate my own inter-racial relatioship to the opposing factors in which Mark and Gail faced. The love tested in this book prevailed under all circumstances. This provided hope for those faced with negative facets of their own Black/White relationships.. It was a real down to earth approach to tell the love story felt by Mark and Gail. I truly enjoyed this book as a reference for my own relationship, using the difficulties both Mark and Gail faced along with their approach with their families and children. Over-all this book provides an excellant view of love in Black and White.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Wonderful book--a must read!
Review: This book was simply outstanding. I waited nearly a month for it and it was worth it. It answered every single question I've ever had about interracial relationships and it helped me find ways to approach others' fears and misinformation in regards to interracial relationships. I came away much more knowledgeable--not just about how human beings interact with one another, but also about the spirit of human beings.

The best part about this book is the way it reads--the story moves fast, the writing is smooth, and many times I found myself almost forgetting that this was actually non-fiction...it was almost as good as a romance novel. And wonderfully, it's all true! I highly recommend this book.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: LOVE IS COLOR BLIND
Review: This is one of my favorite books. I actually met the authors during their promotion of this book and I have a signed copy. This story is so moving, only those of us in interracial relationships and marriages truly understand the struggles and obstacles this couple faced and how they triumphed. This book helped make me strong and face all of those obstacles that I was afraid of. My marriage is a strong one, it has lasted 12 years! Gail wrote a very touching statement in her signing of my copy of this book: "Celebrate the love you share". I have never forgotten to do exactly that!
