[Following is an official OnlineBookClub.org review of "My words were all I had" by William Sanchez.]
Sebastian is a man who is attempting to repair the damage he has caused in the past. He and his friend, Mike, work together. They run a remodeling company. Mike is more of a playboy, while Sebastian, as we mentioned, is trying to get his life together and is thinking of a woman's value. He's grown to think a woman should be cherished and appreciated, not just be haunted. Sebastian meets a woman who he falls deeply for, but life brings them some trouble. Valerie had her own bargain of family drama when her mother left them for another man, and Sebastian cheated on his girlfriend that he loved. Both of them desired to learn from his past in order to create a better future. You need to read My words were all I had by William Sanchez to see how this would work out.
I adored the relationship between Valerie and her father. He always listened and could give her the right advice, and she could tell him everything. I appreciate the writer's constant attempts to show respect for women and how they should be treated. I also liked how some human complications were shown through the behaviors of some characters. Sebastian and Valerie both had a past that affected the way they behaved. At first, you see someone doing something and think they're overreacting. Then, it all becomes clear when you understand the background.
Unfortunately, I didn't really like Sebastian's character. He was too much for me. I couldn't decide whether the writer intended to make him sound like that, or if it was just me who didn't like him. I felt like he was lecturing all the time. I see the good intentions, but I don't like how they were implied. I liked the messages presented: that a man should think about the relationships he enters into and not objectify women. I also liked that Sebastian refused to have anything to do with a married woman. That happens quite frequently in movies and books. So, resenting bad behaviors seems like the right thing to do.
I don't have anything strong to say about this book. I don't hate it, but I don't love it as well. The plot wasn't that strong, either. Therefore, I rate it three out of five stars.
I can recommend this book to people who love romance. It's simple, though, and short, so don't get your expectations up.
