She was angry, controlling and hostile towards her daughters. I didn't understand why he was attracted to Kayla especially when she opened her mouth.Kayla wasn't a positve person and I just didn't like her character. Kayla had issues and needed professional help. When she finally left him she swore off men and made her daughters do the same even though they didn't want to. I'll keep this short. I don't mind if a main character has issues it can make a story more realistic but only if the author can show how a woman can over come her past and find true self worth and happiness. Marley was okay but the author didn't give him much depth. That's why I said thearpy should have been a part of the story line.
The author had the basis for a good story of a scared woman making positive chances in her life with a new man but instead I was left feeling underwhelmed. Her solution to every problem with her daughters was to get a belt and beat them. Kayla was abused by her husband for years. She was too messed up to be in a relationship. You would think that she would be less of a control freak or so willing and eagar to use physical punishment towards her daughters. The same thing her husband did to her. Marly and Kayla lacked chemistry and real passion. Which in my opinion this author did not do.I don't recommend this book.
I like any book that makes me want more. I really liked this book and I wanted to know more about the other characters, like Nestor, Danger and how Robert and LaToya got together.While, I enjoyed reading about Kayla and Marley, I was disappointed by the ending - what ending. I turned the page and the book was over - literally. I guess I am used to an epilogue.Overall, an enjoyable read.
Or is there still too much pain from her past. In Dover, Delaware, Kayla, a divorcee and mother of two, is trying to remain strong and keep men out of her and her girls' lives in hopes that she and her teenaged daughters, Kaitlyn and Kamry, can remain focused. THREE DOORS DOWN is a great book. An undeniable spark between Marley, the guy THREE DOORS DOWN, and Kayla turns into a full blown plot with the girls assisting Marley in hopes of gaining a social life themselves. Is Kayla ready to throw in the towel. I especially liked that the story deals with a mother and daughters. Reviewed by: Carmen
I was wanting to like this book, but the more I read the more I knew how things were going to end up and just predictable. Like I absolutely knew that Kaityln was going to have sex with David before I got to that part.but oh well. It is what it is.
The problem is that Kayla has some real issues from her previous relationship that she has refused to deal with. I believe relating to your children is the key to being a well rounded parent. If only they can get their mother to give into her attraction for Marley.With the help of Kayla's best friend Wanda, and the cooperation of Marley the girls are able to get them together. Her daughters are forced to be a part of her vow to stay away from men, but see an opportunity to change things. I really like this story. Sudler left the story open for a sequel. Being a single parent, she got caught up in the discipline, but failed to really get to know her girls. Kayla decides she needs to focus on being a mother again and decides there is no room in her life for a relationship.I thought Kayla views on motherhood were typical, but I believe she was too closed minded.
The secondary characters were great they added humor and good advice to the story. Because she has kept them so sheltered and removed from social activities, with kids their own ages, one of her girls is not as prepared to face temptation as she thinks she is. Marley was a determined, patient and incredibly handsome man, who has be trying to get to know his neighbor Kayla for several month.Kayla has made a vow to stay away from men and she is trying real hard not to fall for Marley even though she's been having erotic dreams about him nightly. Kayla taught her kids right from wrong, but she didn't pass on her wisdom. Kayla begins to loosen the reins on her daughters. One mistake causes Kayla to rethink her decision to allow her girls more freedom. Ms. It would be real interesting to read Nester's story.
