Query: I couldn't put it down! DA BOMB!

I enjoyed Eric's first book Sister Sister. But Friends and Lovers topped even that. The characters are so real and the plot fantastic that I felt pulled into their lives, successes, failures, and tragedies immediately. Debra, Leonard, Tyrel, and Shelby became MY friends. Eric did a great job with this. Thank you for a book that really touched me with much laughter and tears. I can't wait until the next one!
