Orphaned. Neglected. Hurt and abused. Jane Daugherty has survived what can only be described as the childhood from hell. After years of mental, physical, and sexual abuse, she has become a fiercely independent young woman - closed off from human connection. Unable to trust people or their ability to be kind, she has vowed to build a new life for herself so that she never has to rely on others again. At 24-years-old, she is fulfilling this vow, successfully working as the youngest tenure-track professor at the University of New York. Brilliant and remarkably accomplished, Jane's life takes an unexpected turn when she is reunited with the childhood friend she protected in foster care. Alexa Masterson introduces Jane to the family that adopted her, a family that includes her older brother, Aiden Masterson. Instantly drawn to each other, Aiden and Jane embark on a relationship that will either destroy them both or shape them into the man and woman they were always meant to be. Can what started as lust transform into love? And what will bring about the transformation that they ultimately need? **Please note there is occasional cursing, mild violence, and unapologetic references to sexuality and spirituality within this work of fiction.

Heavy, But Worthy Read
By Kindle Customer
I thoroughly enjoyed this book, I finished it in less than a day and I couldn't wait to put it down... I'll get to why in a little later. Jane is extremely well written and full of uncomfortable moments. When we meet the title character, she is on to the outside world an over achieving phenom. On the inside, however, she is on auto pilot. Over worked, in physical and mental pain, and in need of an intervention in the worst way. Through a series of events she meets up with a woman she once loved like a sister, Alexa. Their friendship and kinship is renewed and starts Jane down a path that ultimately changes her life forever. She begins a whirlwind, minefield of a romance with Alexa's adopted brother Aiden and develops a friendship with their parents. The way I am explaining it feels overly simple... it's not but Michelle N. Onuorah does a great job of showing how seemingly innocuous actions can add up to momentous change. They all get help from a likely but unlikely source: God. Very little in life is really left to chance and by bringing Jane and Alexa back together, God brings Jane and Aiden to Him. They all get an HEA, but they have to earn it. Boy, do they have to earn it.
The romance was so much fun. The dichotimy between Jane and Aiden was interesting in that men are so rarely shown as emotional- that is emotion not tied to anger and lust- or introspective in romantic fiction. Him being the one constantly looking for reassurance and her being the stoic, hard to read one was used to show their personalities in a surprisingly effective way. I not only understood why they fell in love but I understood why it might not have worked out. Aiden was passiotate and determined. He spoke before thinking and was naive. Jane was strong and honest. She was also closed off and stubborn. Without a little divine intervention, these two would never have stayed the course.
The friendship between Alexa and Jane also added to my enjoyment of this book. Alexa's loyalty to and unwavering love for Jane (and vice versa) was a balm at times. They both got by with a little help from their best friend. Rare in romance and so, so necessary.
Having written all of that, Jane was a difficult read for me. First, I usually avoid super angsty books and I have grown weary of physical/sexual abuse as a way to give female characters depth. I can accept both when well written because every good romance needs tension and sex crimes are unfortunately something that a large number of women will have to deal with at some point in their lives. Romance is escapism and the slow reveal of Jane's past abuse was nearly visceral for me. Second, I have a good deal of history with the U.S. Foster Care system. I have known some excellent and horrid Foster parents. The things that Jane experienced are not the norm, but I can say with a heavy heart they could and do happen. While I would read this again, it will be a long while.
Touchy subject but I have to add... From the disclaimer you know the book deals with spirituality. Onuorah is unabashedly a Christian (love that!). I like that her stories can reflect her beliefs without every character becoming a lemming and them being forced to live in some Utopian sing-a-long. This book is full of what I would call home truths that I appreciate, but I think it might end up mistaken as judge-y. I don't see that as her intention and I think a non believer can enjoy this book without feeling collection plate pressure, lol.
Jane is a five star, worth my time read. I am glad I read it and I look forward to the author continuing to share her talent and creativity with the world!
I received an ARC to read and review. As always, that promised nothing but my time!

So, I am not a Christian
By Amazon Customer
Actually, I am reluctant to place any labels on myself. Although I was raised and educated within the institution of Christianity, suffice it to say that I do not now or for the past 25 years subscribe to any religion or faith. However, like the Masterson parents I believe I am a good person and probably live my life with many of the values taught in the Judeo-Christian doctrines. Having said all of that I have to say that I was incredibly moved by this novel, often to the point of tears. And I'm not talking of delicate tracks coursing down my cheeks, but gut wrenching, soul shaking sobs. I cried because Jane's story is my story and seeing my thoughts and emotions laid bare was overwhelming.
Full,disclosure, I was not raised in the foster care system. In fact I have two loving parents who are still married but that did not protect me from being molested and raped as a young girl, and later being in relationships that hurt me to the core. So just like Jane I shut down and shut out everything and every one that had the potential to cause me pain. Reading this story made me realize that in doing this I also shut out any potential for joy, and love, and community in my life. And that I have whittled my life down to my work and my books, a very lonely existence indeed. I am sure that intellectually I knew this all along but I never really knew it until today.
Normally I don't like Christian romance. They often feel preachy and sanctimonious, and I don't want to be preached to when I am trying to enjoy a book. And even though I enjoyed this book tremendously and was incredibly moved by the sermons within I will not be running out to join a congregation anytime soon. But I respect and believe Jane's spiritual journey, and traveling it with her was cathartic and significant to this non- Christian.

By Amazon Customer
This book – and quite frankly the author – was too judgmental for my taste. And for me that reaction simply took away from the book and the characters. I was very disappointed because the book started off strong even though the subject matter truly was difficult and heart wrenching. I finished the book because I was already heavily invested by then – and maybe that’s what the writer was hoping of the reader in order to get her beliefs across – but really I felt cheated and wished I could get my money back. I like learning new things and others’ point-of-views but find it’s offending when others try to impose their beliefs on me. That’s what reading this book felt like, a bit preachy and sanctimonious a lot of times. Frankly everyone is entitled to their opinions and beliefs but I feel a writer should be respectful of his/her readers – not everyone will share your beliefs or faith. That doesn’t mean you can’t express them – it’s a teaching moment – but in my opinion this writer crossed the line when she started to make me – the reader – feel as if she was passing judgment. I have faith but am not religious and quite frankly being judgmental isn’t being Christian because only God is allowed to judge the living and the dead.
The disclaimer was very much understated that it’s almost a waste having it there. This novel should have been categorized as a Christian Romance – let the reader know and decide what they’re purchasing. Knowing that would not have deterred me from purchasing this book, but the writer’s style of writing has dissuaded me from reading anything further from her, let alone buying another book.
Notwithstanding my comments above, this novel could have been great but the story and the characters were unrealistic. The characters – their thought process and reaction – went back and forth from being real to unreal. I like escaping when I read and I enjoy a good fictitious book every now and then, but if I’m reading something that’s suppose to be non-fiction in theory then I want the characters and the events throughout to be realistic.
