4.0 out of 5 starsLove is a powerful drug.

I am a male reader. I consider this book to be largely for the female reader. However, the book provides male readers an opportunity to peer into the mindset of the female who hopelessly falls in love with total stranger and weaves her web in a short time to get this man who has in turn fallen heads over heels in love with her to totally commit to her before giving up her vaginity. I guess anything can happen.
The book flows well and uses a lot of imagery. The characters seem upscale in most instances but then average people in others.
Haven't read a book in ions but this one held my attention until the end. Gave it a high rating. I am familiar with the author.

What a great love story, I couldn't put this book down once I got started, I had to know what was going to happen between Ella and Aaron until book was done. A great Christian read beautifully told by the author looking forward to the next stories.

A sweet story of a strong African American woman who is grounded in faith. Meeting a righteous man, who also shared her deep love for God, was not in her plan.. until she did. This is a story of how a woman overcomes a critical error, with the help of her two besties, to try to track down the man who she fears she will never see again.
I haven't read many books, but I've watched many movies. Reading isn't one of my things, when it comes to books.. In 2017 I purchased a book called , "Escaping Rapture of Devotion." When I started reading, It wasn't what I thought it was. The more I read, the more interesting it became. I've known a Ella all my life but , I didn't recognize that part of her life, and a man like Aaron who became a good friend.to me. The book became very special to me and once I started reading it, there was no way I could put it down. I was so captivated to see if they would ever find their way back to each other again. There are movies that I look forward to seeing every year. This book is one of the things in my life that will make that list. The book was very well written and I enjoyed it very much.
