Reviews...
"If there is one author who knows how to deliver vivid stories that tug on your emotions, it’s Barbara Freethy. JUST THE WAY YOU ARE deftly explores the drama of first loves and second chances." Romantic Times Magazine
“Barbara Freethy has crafted a beautiful and emotionally satisfying story in Just the Way You Are. I was immediately drawn into these people’s lives and was unwilling to let them go until I had finished the story. The secondary characters are compelling and perfectly compliment the emotional attachment and age-old pain that Sam and Allie have to deal with in order to decide what to do with their future. I cannot recommend this book enough – it is a lovely story that will touch your heart.” Barb’s All Romance Bookstore
“This was a heart-wrenching, emotional read for me from start to finish…You will miss an incredible journey by not reading this book. Personally, I felt that this is a great book to read just to get away from the usual NA/YA, billionaire-virgin type of books that’s so popular nowadays. As for me, I’m glad I took a bit of a detour in my reading today. ♥ Geri – Racy Lit Reader – Goodreads Review
“I loved this book! I loved it so much I don’t even know what to say. The characters were so easy to relate to–at times, uncomfortably so. I felt like I learned about myself as I read it. At times I wanted to cry and at others I was so happy but all the way through, I saw truth. This book was beautiful and perfect and I’m a fan of Freethy for life.” Jamie – Goodreads Review
“I finished “Just the Way You Are” with tears in my eyes. Tears of sadness. Tears of happiness. “Just the Way You Are” is a great love story – actually 4 love stories all wrapped up in each other.” Nancy – Goodreads Review
