I am not a big fan of romance novels, but I truly enjoyed this book. It is not full of obvious things and just leaves the reader with a happy feeling.

Go Tiffany, go!!! Tiffany Eastman and Jason Cates' story is fantastic. Tiffany is definitely a woman who is a survivor. She has endured lots of things in the past, but her future has the best yet to come. Tiffany has bounced back and ready to tackle the future. But she does not have to face a bleak future, because Jason is in the picture.

Their story is encouragement to those who have gone through problems of substance abuse, emotional abuse, and family problems. However, with love comes survival.

I loved the way, Ms. Jackson updated us on the lives of Tiffany's children, Dante and Jenny, as well as Jason's daughter, Taylor and her fiance and later husband, Stone Emerson, along with Kara and Jason's sons. I am looking forward to Jenny's story. I hope it will be an upcoming book. I would also like to know the fate of Jared and Jason's other handsome sons.

This is the heart warming story of unexpected, middle-age love betweeen a confirmed-forever widower and widow who is trying to start over, give value to her worth, and discover her true self. This novel treats the unavoidable excess baggages of adult children, addictions and death with reality, yet sensitivity. NEVER TOO LATE FOR LOVE shows that is if the feeling is real and cultivated between two people, it truly can conquer all that baggage, and create new beginnings. It's a good read, particularly for the single person who has given up on love because of perceived shortcomings and because they think they are too old.

Jackson has done it again with her writing talent. "Never to Late for Love" was very moving. It is a book about middle age adults falling in love in spite if all the obstacles that were put in there way. Again Jackson talks about an issue that not common in the romance novel arena, Alcoholism. One last thought, I found Tiffany's son to be very weak individual, I wonder what's going to happen to him! Nice read!

Monica Jackson's story will appeal to readers no matter what your race. I like a book populated by characters that come alive and with whom I could see having a friendship. Tiffany Eastman and Jason Cates are two such people. Each started the story with a large amount of emotional baggage. Tiffany is a recovering alcoholic who had been horribly abused by her late husband and Jason is a surgeon and long-time widower. He'd had to raise his children himself and still, after many years, misses his wife terribly. By the time the story ends, they still have baggage, but the amount is less and the reader is left with the feeling that between the two of them, they will eventually get everything straightened out. They never gave up on each other, even when the going got really rough.

In addition to sympathetic leading characters, Ms. Jackson gives us a varied and interesting cast of supporting characters and a setting that shifts from Atlanta to St. Louis.

I'm looking forward to this author's next book.

I fell in love with Ms Jackson's work after reading "The Look of Love", the story of Carmel, a full figured woman who came to realize that true love is not just for women who look like supermodels. But I think that this new book is even better!

This story features Tiffany, a "40 something" woman who has endured a variety of problems in her life, but who is ready for a fresh start. She moves to St Louis and stays with Jason, a widower who hasn't been with a woman since the death of his wife. And sparks fly!

The thing I'm starting to see in Ms Jackson's work is that she is doing away with the old stereotypes in romance novels, of the young, white gorgeous woman getting the guy. She shows us characters who are much more like ourselves, fighting through adversity and finding true, fulfilling love with a great man.

Never too late was based on a story of true love that a "40 something" woman can relate to. The struggle with the "family issues" and the passion and the eventual love are all real life issues a mature woman has to deal with. I enjoyed reading this book, but thought it needed a little more realism in the actual flow of the story. The basic issues were fine, but I think it needed a little "fine-tuning" when it came to the descriptions of some the plot.

After three years with time and therapy Tiffany has a new lease on life. She has conquered her alcoholism and low self-image and helped her daughter and son move on. She decides to leave Atlanta and take a job in St. Louis, a job secured by Jason Cates, the father of her former. Jason is a physician who has been widowed for thirty years and is still rambling in the huge house he bought for his wife and has raised their five children in. Jason invites Tiffany to share his home until she settles into her new position and can secure housing. Jason cannot shake the strong attraction to this beautiful, composed woman, and it isn't long before she rocks his world. The book interwove characters from the two above mentioned books as well as The Look of Love, giving Ms. Jackson's fans an update of their lives.

This romance tale is incredibly "on the mark". Monica Jackson "put herself out", with this book. "Never Too Late For Love", a realistic love story gives energy to singles over 40. Many African American romances features characters in their mid-to-late twenties and early thirties. Understandably when people meet and connect in the mid-life stage, they have issues unresolved and unfortunate skeletons "shaking their bones" to wreck havoc and make some noise. Jackson tells a sexy, down-to-earth tale that many romance fans have been wishing and craving for. Tiffany Eastman and Jason Cates have a great deal of flame and fire from the on-start and mature romance readers are in for a treat. I had to put off some much needed chores for this one, and I have not regretted reading this book uninterrupted yet. Monica Jackson has her best romance to-date, and "Never Too Late For Love" has put her at the top of my list of romance authors.

Monica has done it again. She has proven that there is love at all ages and stages in life.

This story of Tiffany and Jason was awesome. Their love for each other was hot, but they had some unresolved issues that they both had to face to move on.

Tiffany and her kids went through alot in her first marriage (Heart's Desire)and there was things that she had to face in order to truly open up to Jason. And Jason had his on issues to deal with.

There are many shocking and eye opening scenes in this book. It was good to learn about some of the characters in Monica's other books.

I can not wait for Jenny's story and I would like to see a story on Jarad and Tiffany's son Dante'.

Hats off to Monica once again, Good work!
