Melancholy

Ms. Palfrey is an extraordinary writer. Her characters are very real and even without alot of description, you can visualize their appearance. I enjoy reading about mature adults and women larger than a size 8. This was a relaxing read, but for me it was missing something. I can't put my finger on it, but the end result to the suspense surrounding Darlene, was not fulfilling. Bobbi and Ray are very real, dealing with situations that alot of people face. The realization that as a parent you have done all you can, but don't want to see what is right in front of your face. Darlene should have told Bobbi along time ago about Monee's father, but It is understandable why she didn't. Bobbi handled the situation with Reverend Jackson better than most people would have. Ms Palfrey has built an interesting group of characters in this book, Sonny and Darlene have a story to tell. Loretta has her own story, Vivian and her ex I believe have a interesting story. I would rate this book a 3 1/2 stars. It was good, but I wanted more.

Everything in It's Place

I loved the story. There are not many authors that write about middle aged romances. I found this one to be very refreshing. I loved the story line, plat could have been a little spicer but hey I like'em hot...lol. I especially loved Bobby Strickland's character. She was stong black womaan who did the best to take care of her family b y herself. This will definitely be a book that goes in my "keep Case".

Thanks Evely for such a great read.
Until next time

A wonderful read

I read this book in a matter of hours.

Once you begin it you won't want to put it down.

You are introduced to Bobbie Strickland a devoted mother and grandmother. Bobbie has a daughter named Darlene that is causing havoc in her mother's life. After raising Darlene's daughter Monee, Darlene decides she wants her daughter back with her.

Bobbie then meets a handsome stranger by the name of Raymond Caldwell and they begin to date.

Ms. Caldwell has some of everything in this book. This was an enjoyable book and I would recommend it to others.

"A Place For Everything"

After reading this novel, this completes all her books that I've read. As usual the characters and the storyline were interesting and fun. Mature romance...HEY NOW!!! What's next Ms. Palfrey?


Real life Gracefully Penned on Paper

Bobbie Strickland, elementary principal, wears many hats. She is raising her teenage grand-daughter, Monee; trying to stay ahead of and in theknow with Monee's mother, Darlene, who is has a drug addiction; and she is caring for her elderly neighbor who was robbed and beaten. So many hats, so little time. Before she realizes it, Ray comes into her life. A reitred military man, Ray is sort of a loner after his wife of 20 years surprised him with a divorce two months prior to his retirement. Bobbie doesn't have time for Ray. She had too many people depending on her to take care of them. Or does she!!

In today's society, we find so many grandparents and relatives caring for siblings, grand children or elderly parents that it seems normal. Ms. Palfrey did a wonderful job putting you in the story with Bobbie. She is tugged so much between everyone else that she forgets to take care of her. I LOVED every bit of this story -the romance, the mystery, decision making, trials and tribulations. If you are not a fan of Ms. Palfrey, you will be after reading this book

Peace and Blessings!!

reviews: page 1, 2, 3



Bobble Strickland, an Austin elementary school principal, didn't really believe ex-army officer Ray Caldwell was coming on to her. She wasn't a young girl anymore, and, besides, she had bigger priorities than a relationship -- such as fighting her own daughter in court for custody of her grandchild.

Yet, strong, honest Ray had the "right stuff" to make her feel like a desirable woman again. He had come back to Texas to heal, stunned by a divorce he never expected. Soon, he was entangled in Bobble's life, increasingly worried about the violence surrounding her daughter, Darlene, who was caught up in a web of drug addiction and secrets.

Neither Bobbie nor Ray guessed how desperately Darlene was fighting to escape the demons of her past...in a drama that would test the strength of African-American faith and family values and all the courage in a woman's heart.
