Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A compelling and thoughtful treatment.
Review: A Love Of Her Own is a refreshing entry to the Arabesque line from relative newcomer Bettye Griffin. Avid fans of the multicultural will remember Ms. Griffin's first book, At Long Last Love which was her wonderful debut novel. This one is also set in Florida, but it shows another side of Ms Griffin altogether.

She shows real versatility as an author and has created a story that is timely, thought provoking and realistic without losing any of the tender romance that is a hallmark of the Arabesque line.

This is a book that you will not want to miss! I recommend it very highly as well as its predecessor, At Long Last Love. You will be very glad you have made the acquaintance of Ms Griffin

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: COMPASSIONATE,INSPIRATIONAL,SINCERE,WELL WRITTEN
Review: A LOVE OF HER OWN was written genuinely with compassion, inspiration, and true love. Heroine, Ava Maxwell was indeed cheated out of her true calling, as mother, with so much compassion and love to give any child. She befriends Marcus, a young boy headed for trouble and problems faced by so many children today, poverty, and Hilton White, not realizing the happiness the future holds for the two of them. Ms. Griffin has written a wonderful story, and this reader recommends it to all. Congratulations! Betty

Summary: Just wonderful
Review: I have to echo those who said this was a great read. This book is about an issue that is not often talked about or maybe even unheard of in the african american community:infertility. Ava's struggles touched me deeply and were dear to my heart. The way marcus showed her love despite what many view as a handicap and how she managed to still get a family was captivating.

Summary: Very well written
Review: Ms. Griffin did a wonderful job in writing a story like this. She created the characters so well that you felt you knew them personally. I love the way she connected the famillies. I especially think it was wonderful exploring the issues that some women face today. You never know whose life you touch when you write these novels. Ms. Griffin is a wonderful writer.

Summary: WOW
Review: This book captured it all. A means for all people to relate. Ava's character was that of a any caring human being. She was able to love without being bitter over her own circumstances. A true romance teaches and Ms. Griffin's book does that. I have always stated that I only liked reading historicals. Contemporary books usually sit on my shelf waiting to be read. What a treat to pick up this book and not be able to put it down. Ms. Griffin your book should be marketed as a pick me up for when you're feeling down. If you want humor its got it, if you want facts. its got it and if you want love, BOY does it have. If you like to read your romance with realistic pictures of love. This book is for you.
