This is more than a romance novel; it is a family novel. I especially like how the book weaves together the excitement of an FBI agent's professional life with his introspection on his personal life--and how the conflicts between the two are resolved. The family scenes are particularly moving. It also impressed me how well-structured the book is. Beyond the technical merits, there was a heartwarming tone of humanity and hopefulness throughout the story. That is what will stay with me the longest.

A strong man with a heart, excitement and romance. For all us readers that long for their own hero with a heart that fills the role of savior and seducer, this is the book for you. This book is for sure more about love than sex so for anyone that's tired of all the vivid humping and sweating this is a good book to read. There are love scenes but they are more vaguely mentioned than actually described. I really enjoyed getting to follow along Andre and Cheryl's journey into curiosity, love and honesty.

With her book "Andre's Side of the Story", Toby brings to life a story full of joy, tears, drama and laughter. She has the incredible gift of describing characters, environments and feelings with so much detail that the readers can immediately connect with them in their imagination. I really enjoyed reading Andre's story and couldn't wait to find out what the next chapter of the book - or of his life - might be. Toby's book is full of surprises till the very end
