Good balance of interaction of multiple characters & sexual attraction.

A very enjoyable read. Engaging characters & storylines. Well written. I appreciated multiple storylines and varied subjects. Too many romance novels narrow the focus on the 2 main characters & rush to overly graphic intimate scenes. This book had a wider view of characters, interactions & just enough sexual spice.

Perfect romance for older and young alike

This book was so seamlessly written that it's as if the authors were one in spirit. I loved the story because it spoke to my 76 year old self who found love fifteen years ago. 5+stars.

Gotta love second chances

While the writing in this book seems to be a bit undercooked, meaning simplistic, I’m always open to a good second-chance story. I especially appreciated that the two main characters — Robyn and Christina — are women nearing their seventies who are still open to overwhelming romantic love and marathon love-making sessions. I was disappointed the authors skimped on the outcome of the story’s main conflict by presenting relatively quick and comfortable solutions to what can be a tumultuous and painful task — that of coming out to family. Still, the hurried wrap-up at the book’s conclusion didn’t undermine significantly the HEA these good women deserve.
