 2008-11-04 - Tell us Cees is Case not Cease on the first page
My biggest gripe about this book is that I had to spend the first two chapters changing my mental pronounciation of Cees's name because Goldsby didn't tell me until I'd read the name seven or eight times that it isn't pronouced as it appears.
That said, this is a well-written book that deals with a kind of problem that is difficult to find a good resolution for. Health problems create mountains that cannot be turned into molehills. The resolution seems a little easy, but sometimes it is easy. I would have liked to see more fully developed main charactere (and Goldsby is capable of full-fleshed characters). I found Lilly a bit too edgy, but liked the way Momma Nguyen was turned into a likeble woman.
 2008-10-16 - Unique Romance
Remember Tomorrow is a unique romance with a focus on a secret that isn't written about very often. The plot is a bit traditional and at points, predictable. The main characters sometimes are a bit too lean, meaning they aren't as complex as implied. At time, the only "real" characters are secondary characters, friends Lilly and Momma, who are blunt, angry, and sometimes mean because the main character seems to be either clueless or masochistic. I would've liked the main characters to be as rounded as Lilly and Momma. Overall, however, it is an enjoyable read and hard to put down.
 2008-09-08 - A truly enchanting read
This is a truly wonderful book. The two protagonists, Cees, a TV show hostess, and Arie, an enigma wrapped around a mystery, are believable, likable women who care deeply about each other, that have their inner demons which stand as almost unconquerable obstacles in the path of their affection. Gabrielle Goldsby weaves an enchanting tale of past hurts, present conflicts and future hopes, spiced with just enough hot erotica to make a one of a kind story.
Read this book, you won't regret it.
