Review
My Rating - 5 Stars!
Drea Roman's debut novel, Loving Him is a remarkable tale of love and loss. It's a riveting, emotional journey that is completing deserving of a time. Just be sure to have some tissues nearby.
Black and Aubrey feel an immediate spark. But, as they get closer, Black's secret keep him from being able to give himself completely to Aubrey.
Their story is one of a strong connection that's kept from being absolute due to pain, loneliness, want and fear. Black's inability to open up fully is gut wrenching. I could feel my heart breaking along with his and Aubrey's.
The bond that Black and Aubrey form over parks is important. I love the conversation of people not pausing to notice the beauty and not appreciating the work that's done to create such beauty. This is extremely true and profound.
Overall, this is a tale of a closed off man learning to open his heart again. Black's past has left him just surviving, but Aubrey's love can help him to actually live again.
Loving Him is an accomplished story addressing the power of grief, guilt and loss, as well as the power of love. I'm extremely impressed with this debut novel by Drea Roman, and I'm excited to see what else this author comes up with in the future.
