Crafted by Keshia Robertson, ‘Just As Good’ is a holiday season-themed romantic story of one couples looming engagement. Women from coast to coast are reveling in Evan and Kitt’s swooning, while men are getting ideas for when they pop that most important of questions. As with any good book, the plot is far from simple and demonstrates the many meanings and levels of love.
Toronto, ON -- (SBWIRE) -- 09/11/2014 -- While no man gets down on his knee without at least some confidence that this girlfriend will say “yes”, not every proposal is as easy or honest as it may first appear. In fact, this prospect alone leads man men to delay their proposals or spend the night before sweating with fear. In a light-hearted yet hugely thought-provoking new novel, author Keshia Robertson depicts one couple’s upcoming engagement, the question itself and the resulting drama. In short, “yes” can have multiple meanings!
Everything plays out in ‘Just As Good’, which will have any couple questioning every facet of their own relationship.
Synopsis:
Evan Hermes traded in romance for pragmatism when he suggested marriage at their New Year's Eve party to his girlfriend Kitt Preston. It was a “suggestion” which wasn’t well received by the love of his life. Though it’s taken him most of the year to figure out the perfect proposal, this time romance is front and center to obtain a yes!
Kitt has been in love with Evan ever since he asked her out during their first year of college. Tall, handsome, and a family man, Evan is the kind of person that most women would be falling over themselves to marry…but not her. Kitt is only willing to say yes to a marriage proposal that is worthy of their love and years together.
“This may first look like chick-lit, but you’d be amazed at how many men are enjoying the drama,” explains Robertson. “It provides an abundance of ideas for their own proposals (or an interesting reflection on how they did it), while women are having a great time enjoying the build up from Kitt’s point of view.”
Continuing, “Millions of long-time lovers are sitting on the fence of their own engagement, and my narrative proves just how difficult it is to jump over. Women are mostly unaware of the huge amount of planning, money saving and agonizing that goes into a proposal’s preparation. Now it is all laid out bare!”
Since its release, the book has garnered a string of rave reviews. For example, a representative of Romance Novels in Color comments, “Just As Good is a good title for this story, because that’s exactly what this story is. It’s the light-hearted story of Kitt, an African-American and Evan, a Caucasian, finally making it official over the Christmas Holiday. It’s a typical tale of two love birds that have made a life together, but the guy has not popped the question yet. Kitt is frustrated, but it’s clear that neither is going anywhere, because they are so in love. It’s good to read a wholesome romance where both parties are exceptional people. The writing was good, and I enjoyed it. Overall, this is a short and sweet work. It’s a good holiday read.”
With the holidays approaching and demand for the book increasing, interested readers are urged to purchase their copies as soon as possible.
