Learning to Love Jacquelin Thomas has outdone herself with her Contemporary Romance, With A Song In My Heart. It's a wonderful page-turner mixed with some intrigue and outright romantic entanglement. I really enjoyed this book. Elle Ransom is in love with Brennan Cunningham III. After being together for a while, Elle proclaims her love to Brennan after a night of passionate lovemaking, but it's too much for him to handle, so he skips out in the middle of the night leaving Elle alone and unbeknown to them both, pregnant. A month later, Brennan resurfaces at Elle's brother's wedding. When she talks to Brennan, he acts as if nothing happened between them. She decides not to tell him about her pregnancy, but he finds out from her co-worker. Brennan was raised in a loveless household filtered with upper class social status and was never afforded a loving family life. Therefore, his take on love is simple, no commitments. Elle's upbringing was totally opposite because she was raised in a large, loving family environment. Her take on love is simple, honesty, with love and committment. Brennan and Elle's turmoil in making the right decisions for the sake of their baby is further complicated when a part of Brennan's past catches up with him. Now he is faced with two dilemmas. What Jacquelin Thomas does in "With A Song In My Heart" is take it all to another level. The plot enhancement throughout the story paved the way for a daring climax with a surprise ending. I highly recommend this book and declare this is indeed one of Jacquelin Thomas' best works. Reviewed by Kalaani
Made my heart sing Elle gives you a sense of hope as she ventures into a marriage with the man she loves to form a marriage that's more like a business deal. Elle was way too passive for me, and Brennan, his momma and his baby momma would've gotten told and understood totally what that meant from the beginning! But hey at least he finally opened his heart up. Love is so good! This is the 3rd book by Jacquelin Thomas, that I've read. I didn't realize that The Ransom family was a series. It was a nice read not what I anticipated from the author, I'm guessing she just started doing books with a deeper focus on God.
Interesting... A marriage of convenience is what this was for Brennan. When he realizes that he is really in love with Elle watch out because then he gets scared. Their is also some baby momma drama in this book that will have you cheering for Elle.
What a story One of the reasons Thomas is my favoite author!!! I loved this book, had such a beautiful ending. Elle has been in love for so long with Brennan, but he can't bring himself to fall in love with her. Elle is hurt when she realizes her marriage is not of love, but "friendship". Elle determined to have Brennan's love makes him see her love for him is true. Great story.
Talking about Baby Mama Drama I have been reading Jacquelin Thomas' novels since Hidden Blessings, and I have to say that she has not dissappointed me once. Although, this novel lacked romance, it still was an enjoyable story. This story has many twists and turns. I finished this story in 5 hours.
