Hi,

I"m posting a review for a great new contemporary romance, Carolina, written by Heather Matthews. I read it recently and it was really good. Here is the review from The Romance Studio, along with a blurb and cover image. Thanks.

Carolina -

Review From The Romance Studio

This book was most unusual. The author, Ms. Matthews, followed the lives of several uniquely different individuals throughout their struggles and successes in life. How she brought them together was a phenomenal feat. I was spellbound and unable to put the book down. Considering the fact that this was a plus-sized novel, it wasn’t easy.

Jacob Goldman, founder and CEO of Spur Records International in Memphis, Tennessee, was a 34-year-old workaholic who was enamored with his superstar, Stella Davis. Stella struggled with alcohol and drugs. Their sexual relationship suffered in relation to Stella’s addictions. He worked with a partner to have a contest for “Country Queen” for a new artist who could write music and who was a beautiful songbird.

Caroline Evans, from Calais, Maine, ran away from her dysfunctional home when she told her parents she was pregnant. They insisted she go live with her aunt and have the baby adopted. The father, Daniel, ran away to Canada and refused to help her. She went to Memphis but slipped away before her aunt found her. She found a job, married the boss of the grocery store, and had her baby girl, Elizabeth.

These two main characters lived roller-coaster lives before they ever met. I loved the way Matthews delved into the realistic lifestyles of these two. Their families and friends, as well as some less savory people, created some in-depth storylines. Each was fascinating on its own. There were sexual scenes, but they were not offensive. There were many tears and much suffering. This added to the mesmerizing book.

There was so much going on in the book, but I don’t want to give away any of the surprises which kept me captivated. All I can do is encourage you to read it for yourself. I’m at a loss as to how to assure readers of the magnetism of the book. I highly recommend it to all. There is so much involved that everyone will find things to love about the story

Overall rating: five hearts = five stars
Sensuality rating: Very sensual
