More Reviews
A complex work on many levels, Denise Turney has written a psychological, spiritual, and emotional novel replete with fully fleshed out characters that vie for our attention at every turn. Love Pour Over Me's main character, Raymond, is at once an enigma and an open book. Dealing with troubling issues, most salient of which, are physical and emotional abandonment, Raymond lives a painful childhood with his abusive and alcoholic father. The young, talented athlete must fend for himself and resist as well the criminal elements who shadow and threaten to blithe his world. It is not difficult to see why, as a young adult, he is described as "emotionally distant," and "aloof." With Brenda, Raymond might find enduring love if only he is able to open up enough to accept it. Caught between his devotion to Brenda and the church, the young man is conflicted, and takes refuge in running away. However, he cannot manage to forget Brenda's love. Our resistance to love and forgiveness, writes the analytical author, has created a world of religion. And forgiveness and love, proffers Ms Turney, are what will help bridge the gap of error. Denise Turney is very skilful in her depiction of dialogue, and in the presentation of a world that many will find easy to recognize. - N. Titus

Because Raymond had spent his entire life being abused by his father and trying to remember his absent mother, love was something that he lacked. When Raymond found love in college, it appeared that he had put his past behind him in order to move on. Unfortunately after a tragic accident, Raymond turned into the man that he had feared for so long. I was excited for Raymond when he fell in love with Brenda and anticipated reading the story of their love together. Brenda helped Raymond recover from the accident, but instead of appreciating her it seemed as though he almost resented her for being there. It was heart wrenching to read how Raymond basically became a recluse just to run away from what he desired most in life. It was also touching to watch Raymond and his father's relationship improve over the years, so much so that Raymond ended up living back at home. The love story that I so eagerly anticipated did come to pass and Brenda and Raymond reunited many years later. Although I was angry with Raymond for being so stubborn, this is exactly the type of love story I like to read. Happily ever after gets me every time. - TK

Denise Turney is a wonderful writer. Love Pour Over Me hit the right spot--both as a story about love and as an inspiration to the reader. You can't go wrong here! - Eric Maywar

From the Author

As an author, I am committed to writing fiction that not only serves as inspirational books for women, but that are also good books for men. Love Pour Over Me is such a book. Like powerful biographies, Love Pour Over Me's main character, Raymond Clarke, starts from a point of strength. Raymond's childhood is also a time when Raymond became familiar with pain.

It's this part of the story that could prove to readers that love is patient. Even more, it's why Raymond finds it hard to believe his soul mate, Brenda, when she tells him, "I love you because I know how beautiful you are." Clearly, growing up with an alcoholic parent is a foundational struggle for Raymond. In fact, that's why some African American book readers have become emotionally connected to this love story, whether they grew up with an alcoholic parent or not.

Adult children of alcoholic parents from diverse cultures and backgrounds may find deep solace, comfort and understanding through reading Love Pour Over Me. Readers can believe the truth - no one is outside the reach of love. Everyone can experience a beautiful love story. An unexpected outcome from writing the book is the relationship aspect of the story, particularly the friendship between Raymond and his four male friends and definitely, Raymond's remarkable love story with Brenda.

As with other love stories, Love Pour Over Me, evolved as I wrote it. This is a story that took me several years to finish, as I wanted to give you, the reader, the best love story. Oh . . . And, there's a murder mystery at the story's core, which is how Love Pour Over Me became one of the top love inspired suspense books. Enjoy reading Love Pour Over Me. If the book grabs a hold of you, inspires or strengthens you, offering tight suspense, clarity and understanding, please share it with those who you know could benefit from Raymond's personal, empowering and deeply suspenseful love story. Thank you.
