Summary: Love Lessons, take a seat, listen and learn
Review: This book was too good to put down. Before I knew it, it was time for me to go to work at 5 a.m.
This story was not just about the love between a man and a woman, but also the love and sacrifices that are made when you unconditionally love someone. The story revolves around single parent and absentee dad Trevor, his 8 yr old son Miguel, who is being raised by Trevor's sister, Gretchen along with her own children and Miguel's teacher, Corey.
The main storyline involves that man/woman/child love. From the first meeting of Trevor and Corey you know there is going to be some fireworks and serious lessons in love to be learned. Trevor sees the love that Corey has for his child, and can't help but fall in love with her. The love scenes between the couple are almost heartstopping. You will have to keep reminding yourself to breathe.
The secondary story involves Trevor's sister Gretchen and her children. Gretchen,who has denied herself every pleasure shows unconditional and sacrificial love for her children. The discussions between Gretchen and Trevor, as brother and sister, were lessons in love that Trevor had forgotten existed. This book is one that you will want to read over again. The interactions within the family will make you feel as though you are a part of the gang. Definitely a keeper!

Summary: Didn't really like
Review: This is the love story of Corey and Trevor. Corey is Trevor's son teacher. At first Corey thinks Trevor is a bad father, since he had been out of the child's life. I liked the part's where Trevor spent with his son and his nephrew, but I didn't care for Trevor and Corey's relationship, I felt that it didn't consist of anything but sleeping together.

Summary: Love Lessons
Review: This story was very good in the beginning but it started to get tiresome in the end. I am glad that Trevor owned up to his responsibiliites to his son. I really love the fact that Trevor and Corey finally got together.

Summary: Life Is About Learning Valuable Lessons!
Review: Trevor Winston is a film-producer who has spent the last eight years of his professional life globetrotting around the world producing films/videos. In that same timespan, Trevor has married, had a child, divorced and had to deal with the death of his ex-wife and mother. While Trevor has been busy working and making big bucks so that he could provide financially for his young son, he has neglected to take care of his son's emotional needs. Because of his traveling due to his career, Trevor left the care of his son in the hands of his wife, mother and then his sister.Currently, Trevor's sister, is busy raising two teenage kids and a college age cousin as well as Trevor's young and precocious 10 year old son, Miguel. Trevor knows that his older sister is a very responsible individual so he's surprised to hear that several notes sent home from his son's teacher have gone unanswered and now he must fly back to the states to deal with this "temporary setback." Trevor is taken by surprise when he meets Miguel's teacher, Corey Hamilton. Corey is female, African American, young, attractive and hip. Unfortunately, while Corey might admire Trevor as a renowned filmmaker in the entertainment industry, she has nothing but contempt for him as a parent. She perceives him to be a neglectful, absentee father who's only concerned about money, status and fame. While Trevor takes offense to Corey's position, when he walks in on the chaos of his sister's household, he quickly realizes that he needs to take off time from jet-setting around the world in order to help his sister provide a male role model for his son and teenage nephew and prove to Corey that he's not the monster she made him out to be. To show that he's interested in his son's well-being...and to get to know Miguel's teacher better, Trevor decides to work on a school project which will require him to spend much time around Corey. Trevor and Corey both realize that they must set aside their differences in order to help Miguel and in doing so they find out that they actually like each other. But the path to love, marriage and the baby carriage will not be easy as twists and turns along the way threaten to destroy the budding relationship. Love Lessons by Leslie Esdaile is entertaining and enlightening. Esdaile wows us with her trademark romance theme but she also teaches us lessons about love. The underlying theme in Love Lessons is "about finding balance, learning to balance one's career aspirations with a family, responsibility with desire, and struggle with surrender." It's about who your teachers are and what you are teaching others. Esdaile leaves us with much to ponder long after the story is finished. If you're looking for a romance novel with a social message then look no further than Love Lessons by Leslie Esdaile.
