Wow wow wow!! Kimberly Brown did it again with Courage to Love Again. She's written a beautiful love story about overcoming loss, grief, divorce, depression, and generational curses.
We meet Pasha, an unhappily married stay-at-home-wife struggling to overcome mental health trials after experiencing multiple losses, on the same day that her husband, Raymond, decides to request a divorce, put her out of their home, and move on with his new pregnant mistress. Brown pulls you in right away with the drama and gives you all the feels. Forced out of her home, Pasha uses a ride-sharing app to call for a car. The driver, who just so happens to be the wealthy owner Callum, becomes her 'Knight In Shining Armor,' saving her from the mean words of her husband and further embarrassment.
While Pasha works on rebuilding her life and finding herself, her situation takes ahold of Callum and he just can't stop thinking about her. After a few chance encounters, the two agree to be friends and grow in love together.
With this very passionate and thoughtful love story, Kimberly Brown weaves a tale of strength and perseverance that is empowering and inspiring for romance readers.
Spice: 🌶️🌶️🌶️
Note: There is not exactly an adult/minor relationship in Courage to Love Again, but there is a serious age gap with a male character who uses that age gap to take advantage of the FMC.
