Review: A long-awaited triumph profiling some of the greatest love stories never told. This book confirms what we always knew but never saw in black & white: black love is epic, larger than life and its shining examples provide all of us with inspiration, hope and a lighted path to lead the way. TaRessa and Calvin Stovall by loving example and by design have created a tour de force!

Summary: Thanks Taressa!
Review: Taressa and Calvin Stoval created a beautiful book of pictures and stories that will cheer your heart. If you think nobody falls in love anymore or you think that nobody stays together anymore this book will be a real tonic. The stories of these couples: how they met, how they married and what they've done to stay together was a real inspiration.

Summary: ok
Review: The love stories in this book was pretty good love stories. My favorite stories were the one's about Colin Power,and his wife Alma, Rachel and Freddie Cook, and also the one about Barbara and Earl Graves,they seemed more like old fashion love stories than the other to me.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The Essence of Black Love
Review: The Stovall's have capture generations of culture in this wonderful book. This book is redeeming in that it deplicts Black American LOVE (Families) in a light that shines bright throughout the nation, but is often minimized as a result of stereotyping and media imposed images. It wonderful to know that people of all backgrounds can have an inside view of a diverse cultural of people that treasure the essence of love and unity.

This is a book to have on the shelf and most importantly a book to past down to other generations. Thank you STOVALLS!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A superb survey of passionate and committed relationships.
Review: These real-life stories of black love portrays Afro-American married life in all its nuances, from how urban dwellers fall in love to those who have formed coupled lives in rural regions. Selected individuals tell their stories in this excellent account of passionate and committed relationships.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Absolutely Sublime!
Review: These stories touch the heart. So many times the fact that black families love and cherish one another is glaringly absent in the media. We hear all about the negative aspects of black life. Well, now we've been served up a healthy dose of positive love. Bravo! I enjoyed the stories about celebrities. But I also truly appreciated the stories about everyday people. I applaud the Stovalls.

Rating: 5 stars
