    About this audiobook

    Always the optimist, TV assignment editor Allison Sullivan makes no excuses about the enthusiastic life she leads. As doors of opportunity present themselves, whether in her profession, in her love life, or her friendships, Allison is one to take the task on full speed ahead. But when Allison meets the man she's investigated in person, the world around her seems to pause as she fumbles to recover from the dynamic energy that clings from him to her. She's never felt desire forge so deeply within, and the chance at a clandestine meeting raises the stakes on an ensuing love affair.

    Award-winning film director Lance Valentine isn't looking for love, but in the midst of filming a new motion picture, he meets Allison Sullivan in an impromptu dinner at the home he was raised in. At first sight, her beauty takes his breath away, and he finds himself unable to explain the flutter in his heart or the battle in his spirit at the crescent curve of her smile. Career driven and focused on building his empire, Lance has never taken a chance on anything other than his creativity. Until Allison. While neither of them is looking for romance, they'll both soon find that an endless possibility of love is within their reach.

    Contains mature themes.

      Amazing storyline and I love how close the Valentine’s family is always having each other back ❤️❤️
    • 4/5
      The heat level in this one was very high, Lance and Allison ‘s chemistry is was definitely off the charts. The book was a lil predictable but was still interesting I like that the author addressed an ongoing situation that is happening in all communities.
    • 5/5
      Love the story and the book looking forward to book four the narrators are very good keep you in suspense
    • 3/5
      This book had potential but, somewhere along the way, it made a left turn on the wrong street and just imploded into ridiculousness. It’s disappointing because, I was really excited about Allison and Lance. The story line about Allison possibly being infertile was just silly. How do you break up with a man because, you can’t give him kids without actually knowing if you can’t have kids?!!! Not once did she go to her doctor and say, "My fertility. Lets talk about it." So, her hysteria about having children just didn't make sense. And, that conversation with Allison and Mr. Valentine about her health issues was on a whole different level of silliness. Who talks about their health history with their boyfriend’s father when you’ve only met him a handful of times?!!! I’m no medical expert but, the way her so called “health issues” were described wouldn’t really impact her fertility one way or the other. But, with all the unprotected sex they were having, I was kind of expecting a surprised pregnancy at the end of the book. Oh, well! I had such high hopes for Allison but, she turned out to be annoying and very immature.

      Title: Give Me A ReasonAuthor: Stephanie Nicole NorrisPublisher: Love Is A Drug Ink Series: In The Heart Of A Valentine Book 3Reviewed By: Arlena DeanRating: FiveReview:"Give Me A Reason" by Stephanie Nicole NorrisMy Thoughts....Another beautiful read of the Valentine series that was indeed a good read. With Lance being s0 protective of Allison was really a beautiful thing. I will say that Allison's thought pattern got to me some but by the end I was finally able to understand her reasoning in the way she did a few things. Truly when it came to their chemistry these two were definitely on point being so hot and steamy! I will say this author really knows how to present those love scenes to the reader! Now that I am at the end of this story I am only left wondering if Raphael will be the next Valentine in these beautiful series. Well done to the author!
