Book Reviews of Dawn's Harbor (Indigo Love Spectrum)Book Review: Could have been great!! Summary: 2 StarsThis book could have been great, the plot-line was great but instead it was slow and boring. I started this book and I could not even finish reading it because I kept falling asleep, which is saying a lot since I love missing sleep just to keep reading a great book. So finally I could not take it anymore and I just skipped ahead to the end and the ending did not make me want to continue reading it. So for me this book was a waste of time.
Book Review: Excellent Story Summary: 5 StarsI enjoyed this story because it was nice change from everyone sleeping around etc. At times I wanted to cry for the characters especially Little Princess Morgan...her story was tragic. As for the main characters Jasmine Bure and Noah Arias, I thought that they were adorable. They had their issues and she but in the end they were able to work through them. Very oldfashion values, excellent!!!!
Book Review: Puerto Alba Summary: 4 StarsDAWN'S HARBOR by Kymberly Hunt is a classical romance novel with a twist of mysticism, adventure, danger and inspiration. It is set in New York City and the fictional country of Cielo Vista, Africa. Hunt crosses boundaries focusing on interracial romance, drug abuse, dysfunctional families, the foster care system and the hierarchal societies within foreign countries.
Jasmine Burke is playing landlord to her younger, unmarried and irresponsible sister, and her two children after another failed relationship. Jasmine is an architect and the only African-American within the company which employs her. She takes pride in her work and the obstacles she overcame to get here. Fed up with her sister, she demands she find another place to live and soon. This demand is followed by tragedy and the story fast-forwards two years as we find Jasmine working for a janitorial company within a nursing home. There she sits and talks to a comatose patient by the name of Noah, a victim of an automobile accident. Unbeknownst to Jasmine, Noah was the heir-apparent to Cielo Vista after his father's murder. The nursing home is a hide-away set up for his protection by his family and friend. Meanwhile, on the home front, Jasmine becomes a surrogate mother to a young child who is neglected by her family.
There are two major stories at play in this novel and they come together for an interesting read and a satisfying conclusion. The author's use of dialogue helps paint a vivid picture of the surroundings and emotions displayed by the characters. DAWN'S HARBOR is a creative take on some societal ills.

Book Review: This was different in a refreshing way Summary: 4 StarsThis was different in a refreshing way. Five stars to the author for holding my attention with this book. It reminds you that bad things happen to good people and in real life you don't get pass it overnight. The story is a journey between a woman who has to live with a tragedy that will never go away and a man coming to terms with a betrayal that rocks him. Together they find each other and I for one am glad they do. It's a book that can give you hope. Some people may find the subplot alarming or hard to digest. That is the only reason I didn't give it a five star. Not that it was improbable, but that it took a minute to digest. That aside, I made it to the end and enjoy it. Think Sharon Sala when you read it.
Book Review: Ramona's review Summary: 2 StarsI enjoyed this book, although I found it rather tedious at times. I liked the idea of the story the sadness and despair, bareing her soul to this coma guy and having him wake up. The start held a lot of promise to be a great romance book but sadly it lacked sparkle in that area. As an inspirational book it is good. I would not recommend it if you are looking sensuality, there is none.
