4.0 out of 5 stars "Precious Heart", Nov 14 2000
By "missnikki" (Ft. Pierce, FL USA) - See all my reviews
Precious Heart was a good read. I enjoyed the characters a lot. The novel was a little long for me and it seemed like the story was being forced to make the 377 pages of the book. Well, all and all it was an okay story!

5.0 out of 5 stars Delightful Story of Love and Courage, Sep 21 2000
I've been reading Doris Johnson's novels from the beginning and her work just keeps getting better and better. "Precious Heart" really touched my soul and also made me look at something which I never really approved of in a different light (organ donations). I know that many African Americans do not believe in organ donations but after reading this novel, I may reconsider my point of view.

The story of Diamond and Steven was truly awesome. I don't know how Ms. Johnson plans to improve upon "Precious Heart" but I know that she will. I loved it. Go buy it!

5.0 out of 5 stars Thought-inspiring, passion-filled romance., July 23 2000
By S. Jones "stargazer_ja" (Jamaica) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I thoroughly enjoyed this story. In a mere 376 pages, Ms. Johnson skilfully wove an entrancing tale with well developed, complex characters, an interesting plot and thought provoking themes. The story took me through a wide range of emotions - I laughed, cried, sighed and ranted and raved through the story. Diamond and Steven are going to be heroes for me for a long time to come. Diamond - who chooses to face her fears head on and come to grips with them, who cares enough about a young stranger to want to befriend and help her, who gives her all to the one she loves. Steven - who is haunted by the memory of a lost love, who overcomes his fear of that kind of commitment and resulting pain to truly love again, who takes on the burden of trying to hold together a family bent on destruction, who cares about his loved ones even when they appear to do everything to push him away. The story touched on social issues like class prejudice and dysfunctional families as well as organ donation. And in spite of all that, it was an amazingly wonderful, passion-filled romance. The issues were all addressed in a way that made them real and not superficial or secondary, but at the same time the story was not heavy or depressing.

Kudos to you Ms. Johnson. I am now an avid fan!
