Summary: Finding Love Again - Great read
Review: Finding Love Again is a moving love story in which a couple must deal with the past and future in order to truly be in love again and be better at it. Jealously, misrepresentation, sex, miscarriage is in this love story. You travel from Brooklyn, New York, New Jersey, Atlantic City and London to get the flavor of the story. Ms. Washington has done a great job in bringing warmth on a cold afternoon. Sit back and relax.

Summary: Finding Love Again- Great Read
Review: I enjoyed reading Finding Love Again. I thought it was a wonderful book. It started off a little slow, but once the story heated up, I couldn't wait to get to the next page. The love scenes were exciting and sexy, and the storyline had me hooked. I'm a fan of Ms. Washington's previous book, Guarded Love, and I'm sure you will love this book also. I give it 4 stars.

Summary: good book, just not what i am use to.
Review: I liked this book very much, but i wasn't feeling hero very much at all. Lawrencia and Ivan story was one feel with tense emotion. Lawrencia wanted to become more than a housewife, and have a career, while Ivan her husband wanted a stay at home wife that he could control. Lawencia was determined have her career which almost ruined her marriage, but fate intervened throught well meaning loved ones, who helped this couple find there way back to each other. This is usually not my type of romance novel that i like to read but the story was good, along with the antaganist enemy of Rencia's who was jeolous of her and wanted to ruin her marriage and career, this what had me hooked into the book. The love scenes are hot and steamy. I do intend to read more by this author.

Summary: Ok read but...
Review: I was a little disappointed about this book. I have read Ms Washington's books and loved them all. I couldn't get into this book it to me a week or longer to finish. The love and the romance was great as her other books but I just wasn't feeling this couple or the sub characters in the story. The start was hard to get into. The story was ok but to think we still have men acting like the cave man was a hard grasp. One the story really heated up it went back cold. I give this book a two. Maybe next time. Don't be put off by this Ms. Washington other books are great.

Summary: It's time to re-evaluate...
Review: What would you do if your spouse or significant other absolutely forbade you to do something that you're set on doing? Would you acquiesce to their demand, or would you take a stand and follow your heart?

In AlTonya Washington's FINDING LOVE AGAIN, Lawrencia DeZhabi finds herself in this predicament. She wants desperately to work outside the home, but her husband Ivan is adamantly opposed to her doing so, and basically refuses to stand by her when she goes against his wishes. This understandably causes conflict which results in the couple separating. Even though Ivan and Lawrencia still love each other, they remain separated for many months. Each must come to terms with the other's point of view, and resolve all of the issues hindering their return to a happy marriage.

FINDING LOVE AGAIN was a good story. The underlying message of taking a stand for what you believe in and not sacrificing your happiness for the sake of others hit home for me in many ways. However, I did have a problem with the fact that it was overly descriptive and was quite repetitive, which made for a long, drawn out, tedious read. There should have been less focus on the physical attributes of the couple and their surroundings and more time spent developing the storyline, which could have really been explosive.
