review 1: I really enjoyed this book. Orlando was a character written far before his years. I like how we never knew his exact age, but the way he was portrayed it really didn't matter because he was all man. Carrie was also an extremely strong character. Only a strong woman can come into a ready made family and raise 2 children as her own even though one gave her hell most of the time. Aaron, what a sorry SOB. Its men like him that give all others a bad name. The ending was a bit surprising, and very refreshing. This was a really good read, May/December romances are always a breath of fresh air when done tastefully, and what a gr8 debut from Toni Meyer....I can't wait to read more.
review 2: One Thing She Knew follows the torrid affair between Carrie Hemingway, a succes
... moresful doctor in the throes of depression from a broken marriage and her efforts to cover it up for the sake of her family, and Orlando, a college student (Carrie's son's roommate), who fall deeply for one another despite familial obligations and societal pressures that threaten the relationship from its onset. After the honeymoon phase passes, the love between Carrie and Orlando is tested time and time again under the weight of secrets, lies, and a series of dramatic events that not only threaten their love but their lives. Do they really love one another or is their relationship just a physical thing that went too far? If they are in love, can it survive the trials and tribulations? Ms. Meyers deftly mixes drama and suspense to portray the lives of these compelling characters with vivid imagery and lyrical prose. Once the love affair begins, this book is hard to put down. This author is definitely one to watch! K. L. BradyAuthor of The Bum Magnet less
