I've read Choices by Ms. Williams and truly enjoyed that book. Blindsided is the sequel to that book. I enjoyed catching up with Lauren and Ryan from that book. This book was so much better than that book! Choices was good but Blindsided was excellent. There were many reasons why I liked this book so much better....for starters, I have gotten so frustrated with authors of interracial romances making the BW in a BW/WM tale out to be insecure with little to no self esteem. It really frustrates me and I wish these authors would incorporate a new story line. This was not the case in Blindsided. Dahlia had some really legit concerns for not wanting to commit to a relationship. It had nothing to do with insecurities which was a breath of fresh air. I also hate the fact that in all these stories between a BW/WM, the BW is the one because of her love for the male and her not wanting to hurt him or because some other character is raising hell, breaks up with him by telling him some far fetched lie because they think it would be for the best! This happpened in Choices, but Ms. Williams deviated from that in Blindsided and I was truly grateful! I truly enjoyed the characters and I loved the fact that Norris's character had grown from the previous book.
Blindsided wasn't a far fetched and an unbelievable tale. Ms. Williams opened the story with the two main characters already knowing each other and in somewhat of a relationship which is quite different and unique than what I'm used to reading in Interracial Love Stories. The way they met was quite comical with Dalhia being Laura's hair dresser from Choices. If you want to read an engaging tale with truly developed characters, no editing issues or over the top conflict than this is the story for you. The race issue was dealt with but in a very mature and heartfelt way. Norris was by all means my favorite character ...even with all his vainess and ego! He was truly in love with himself but loved Dahlia so much more. He dealt with all the issues thrown at him like a true gentleman. I loved the potato chip addiction that one character had and Norris's third person talk....it made the story so much more fun. I highly recommend getting this book:)I hope I didn't give away too much! I hate when reviewers do that lol.
