Reviews

“Beautifully written. A Personal Matter is a powerful and deeply thought-provoking and passionate novel about life struggles; especially how we deal with family, co-workers and our inner flaws. This top rated debut novel sweeps the reader along from page to page. This is a must read!” - USA Today bestseller Brenda Jackson

“With an enticing storyline filled with memorable characters, Karyn Langhorne poignantly reveals the magical rewards of feeling love instead of fearing it.” - Essence bestseller Lori Bryant Woolridge on A Personal Matter

“A Personal Matter is a phenomenal debut novel from Karyn Langhorne. The writing is both engaging and humorous. Somehow, Langhorne has invented a fresh, anticipatory sigh of pleasure after each page style of writing, and it is wonderful. The characters are as captivating as the writing. Ben and Alayna are an electrifying couple; the currents are tangible in every heated conversation they share. A Personal Matter also dares to be more than entertaining. Without allowing the story to lose a single beat in its engrossing pace, Langhorne touches upon racism and interracial dating in a clever, unobtrusive manner. ” - A Romance Review (www.aromancereview.com)
