Rating:  Summary: A BOOK TO READ! Review: I will use one word to describe Alex Hairston's Love Don't Come Easy: REAL. From the beginning to the end, this book was well written it left me with a smirk on my face from page to page. It's hard to believe this is Alex's first novel, I can't wait until the next book is published. This book took me back to the days when love was new and exciting. Each page of Eric's life makes you want to continue well after the story has ended...how about a sequel? This is one that you won't be able to put down. A well written fiction. Alex, we are waiting for #2!

Rating:  Summary: Love Don't Come Easy by Alex Hairston Review: Love don't come easy by Alex Hairston is the book that all readers should go out and buy. This story has a lot of unique qualities and it was tastefully written . The story is based on a young man named Eric who was raised by two successful parents. Eric's not your average teenager. He is far from been perfect but he is conscious and confident who has a good understanding of life. As Eric takes you on his journey you would find yourself been proud of him, laughing with him and getting mad at him. Through each character Mr. Hairston expressed black pride, the qualities of black families, importance of education, self respect, true love, survival,the power of sexuality and the acknowledgment of God. Each characters of this book are truly unforgettable. Love don't come easy is my #1 favorite novel and once you read it I am sure it will be your favorite book too.

Rating:  Summary: A Sexual Coming of Age Review: Love Don't Come Easy is the sexual coming of age story of Eric Brown, Jr. The book begins with Eric's first love and takes us throughout his different relationships and romantic liaisons to show how different women impact his life and affect his views and perspectives on love.As an adult, Eric has what most people would call a perfect life. He makes a good living as a male nurse, has a nice luxury condominium, a brand new car, and loving, supportive friends and family. However, he lacks what he most desires-a meaningful relationship. To make matters worse, he has found and fallen in love with his soul mate-his best friend's wife. Drawing upon all his lessons in love, he must make the ultimate decision-a lifelong happiness with the love of his life, or saving the relationship he has had with his best friend. Alex Hairston has written a beautiful novel that shows how relationships that begin as young as our teenage years are influential in shaping who we are. Eric's story is engrossing, at times erotic, and is reminiscent of first love and true love. This novel is a quick, ntertaining read that is both poetic and erotic. I eagerly anticipate future works from this author. Reviewed by Latoya Carter-Qawiyy The RAWSISTAZ Reviewers
Rating:  Summary: Great easy read, the ending leaves you wanting more!!! Review: Mr. Hairston's LDCE is a quick easy read. The main character, Mr. Eric Brown Jr. is a serious player who has a lot of lessons to learn about being in a relationship and dealing with the emotions, heartache and joys of loving another person. The subplots in the book along with the supporting cast of characters were all very colorful, believable and full of DRAMA!. Eric certainly meets his ideal woman in the person of Candie but you have got to read the book to find out the twist of circumstances that really made her totally unvailable to him! There are a lot of sexual encounters because of Eric going through his player stage but the author did a good job of tying the physical circumstances in with the psychological aspects of Eric's personality.You might not like Eric and all his ways but he does mature and grow up in some ways. Over all this book was lively but I think that the ending left a lot of unresolved issues. Eric needs to face his best friend Troy and deal with him on a man to man basis. Will Eric and Candie's relationship last and what kind of woman is Candie? I mean she had an affair with her husband's best freind: what makes Eric think that she will not do the same thing to him! All these unanswered questions.....sounds like a sequel to me!!! Oops...I am giving too much away! BUY THIS BOOK!!! You will enjoy the book and I am quite sure it will leave you wanting more!!!
Rating:  Summary: Pretty good book if you have an open imagination! Review: Personally I thought the book was well written and very exotic. I do have to agree with some of the reviews not liking the fact that he did fall in love with all the women he encountered. I guess I was hooked on the book because it was nearly reality for me in my younger days. Well without the rich parents and falling in love everytime! :) This book takes you on a journey from a young 16 year old sexually excited male to a successful publisher/nurse in his early 30's longing for that ultimate love. I say give it a try, I know I enjoyed it!

Rating:  Summary: Chap 16 page 211........ Review: That is as far as I could get. You know the saying...."Don't judge a book by it's cover."? Take that advise!!! I am this far in the book and nothing that caught my attention from the books excerpt has happened yet. This book is well written, but I was totally expecting something else. This is a great book for 21 and under. Or if you want to reflect in your high school days. Even then, not every girl I met in high school feel in love with me. (...) I am just disappointed of the turn out. I am not a quiter, so I am just putting it aside and hopefully I will get the urge to finish it by the end of summer.
