The Woman Has A Gift!,
By Tee (NJ) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Tomorrow's Promise (Paperback)
Though I am a huge fan of Leslie Esdaile; I was initially hesitant to read this book. I am pretty sensitive about the Sept. 11 disaster and just couldn't imagine that anyone could write a novel especially a romance that included this subject; without it somehow being a disservice to those who were victimized that day.Well my caution was unnecessary. Ms. Esdaile skillfully handles 9/11 with both sensitivity & intelligence; as well as delivering on an incredibly romantic story. I've already read it twice! Don't miss this one...

This review is from: Tomorrow's Promise (Paperback)
In Tomorrow's Promise by Leslie Esdaile, love must overcome many obstacles to flourish between this hero and heroine.Tina Johnston is a newly promoted Lieutenant Colonel in the JAG Corps. She is taking a much needed vacation to visit her brother, Wendell, and his family in China. Little does she know, that her sister-in-law, Carol, has more on the itinerary than just sightseeing. Enter Mark Hicks, a recently retired Military Intelligence Officer and Wendell's best friend and business partner. Tina and Mark are thrown together in what Carol has already decided is a "love match". After spending a great deal of time together touring different cities in China, they begin to believe in the love match as well, until a tragedy hits stateside. Both are thrust back into the military careers in which they are trained. This causes a rift in their personal relationship. Can they put aside their differences and fear to recapture the magic they shared overseas? Esdaile brought to life the landmarks and culture of China. It was the perfect backdrop to the romance of Tina and Mark. Once the main characters were back in the states, they reverted back into military personnel. Being a military wife, I was able to relate to the commitment and dedication they displayed to their country. I would recommend this book to fans of romance and I look forward to the next novel in the Heroes and Heroines series. Reviewed by Nicole

Promise Me,
By The RAWSISTAZ Reviewers (RAWSISTAZ.com and BlackBookReviews.net) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Tomorrow's Promise (Paperback)
Simply put, Tomorrow's Promise is a graceful and captivating love story of Tina Johnston and Mark Hicks. Tina is a military attorney who specializes in International Law; Mark is a newly retired military intelligence officer. On vacation in Shanghai, China to visit her brother and his family, Tina meets her brother's best friend and business partner, Mark, who is also there on vacation. In love with their careers, Tina and Mark are headstrong and live by the phrase that "tomorrow is never promised"; they have goals to achieve and romance and emotional attachments only complicate matters.Leslie Esdaile provides an alluring imagery of several cities in China, utilizing metaphors and similes to brilliantly display the cultural heritage of China and its modern day people. She skillfully reverts back to the states with the same effective techniques in describing Philadelphia and its inner city, middle class African-Americans. The traditions of both cultures are laid before our eyes with a realism you can see. One of the most powerful strategies used to entice the reader is the inclusion of the national disaster of September 11 into the story line. This event provided strong dialogue between the characters that you could feel and see through words. The reader receives another perspective of the tragedy through the eyes of our military personnel. This is an excellent character driven novel that will stir the depths of your soul. I applaud Leslie Esdaile for taking me on vacation. Romance readers will absolutely enjoy Tomorrow's Promise. Reviewed by Dawn R. Reeves
