Because Love Said So is a romance with spicy undertones. The author gave the people a story that is interspersed with a damsel in distress meets white knight but covered in cat and mouse. The story was not only touching, but it gave me chills at specific points and coerced my tears to caress my cheeks. All in the spirit of great romance.

Character Breakdown

Samson- He is ALPHA from the top of his head to his pinky toe. This man comes off as intense, and you feel him as if he has hopped off of the pages and sat beside you to command your attention. His determination is one for the record books, and this man was so easy to fall in love with as far as male leads go. A workaholic with the success to match is a recipe for a good catch. Sometimes that's not all it takes.

Avion- She is the epitome of strength when the world lays its burdens on her shoulder. Her spirit is nurturing and so full of light that it drew you in like a moth to a flame. Avion reminded me that black women are the epicenter of all life and the foundation for most solutions. It was her ability to carry the world and not fold that will make her a shero in my book. But even the strong need strength.

Story From My Perspective

As soon as I started reading, I was hit with an overwhelming sense of empathy. Avion's plate was so full, and you couldn't help but see her as a sacrificial lamb. She reminded me of the actual struggle of womanhood trying to wear so many hats, and you deny yourself the care and attention it takes to keep your spirits up to live and fight another day. When she and her best friend go out on the town, I was beyond elated because she needed that fresh air. Then when she was put in the path of a strong man, I was like yes, Avion about to get swept off her feet. Sometimes the first meet is the invitation to the chase. 

Samson met a beautiful woman who called to the middle of his soul. Their, one meeting in the club had him intrigued, but with no way to contact her, he thought all hope was lost. That is, until fate in her infinite wisdom intervenes and leads him right to his heart's desire. With a new opportunity to woo Avion, he redoubled his efforts and was determined to make her see that love waited for no one. Life never happens just how we see fit. 

This book had me in my feelings, and I loved the topics that the author explored that made for great conversation with my significant other. It wasn't your cookie-cutter boy meets girl, and they ride off into the sunset. No, this author touched on the many ways that love can be given but also the things that could hurt the institution. It reminded me that love is about two people who make a commitment to one another to not just enjoy the good, but help each other weather the storm. Samson and Avion quickly became my favorite couple on my perfect-match list. They were two people he poured into each other's empty space and gave birth to their definition of love.
