RRAH's THOUGHTS AND PONDERINGS:

Private Matters is the second romance novel I read by Amberlina Wicker. I thought the first, Made in Heaven, was emotionally honest. Private Matters upped the bar for emotional honesty, and portrayed the most romantic hero and heroine in the most meltingly romantic and sometimes scary, adventure story I've ever read. I don't know why she stopped writing, but I sure wish she would start up again. Her characters are so real you feel you know them. And love them. They are not only beautiful people, they're people you know at their best.
