Making Love Last exposes added layers of conflicting feelings from the characters of the first novel, Love ‘n Time, highlighting the many obstacles they encounter while making and keeping their romantic connections.

He’s a powerful man in the court room but a babbling idiot with women; that is until he meets the lovely Erion. Will Criminal Attorney Victor Rowe finally win the heart of the only woman he’s ever loved at first sight? He seems to think his charm is enough to reel her in to his arms but will her sordid past put a halt to this story book romance?

Is it possible for one man to be in love with two women … at the same time? DaRon Mitchell didn’t think so until it happened to him. His tangled life with his childhood girlfriend and his college sweetheart was going smoothly until a near tragic experience makes him a changed man. He realizes it’s time to settle down and commit to one woman. But the one who get’s the boot doesn’t go away so easily.

Taleed Wallace fought the mother of his son in and out of the courts so that he could be a father without having so much distance between the two of them. Even though he despises her decision to have the child, he finds himself protecting Candice from the physical abuse inflicted on her by her boyfriend. But, Taleed has a secret that constantly he can’t share with his friends now.

Prayer versus Southern Superstitions…

A woman’s husband mysteriously disappears in the swamp on a deer-hunting trip. As steamy as the hot, thick, sticky heat of Louisiana, this page-turner will keep readers in suspense, as the author spins a tale of love, loss, superstition, pain, heartache, and faith in God.

Reviewer Kathy Boswell says:

Very good! She never gives up hope that Andy will return to her someday. She puts it all in God’s hands like she’s done every crisis in her life. She knows He will take care of this for her.

God and The Power of Prayer versus Southern Superstitions…

Through belief, faith, hard work, the power of prayer, and God’s help, this powerful, moving story is a thought-provoking Christian romantic suspense about a young couple who fall in love, but have to change her mother’s mind in more ways than one, if their relationship is to survive.

Can Andy convince June there’s more to their relationship than friends? Will he win the approval of Mrs. Myrtle, her mother, and can love survive strawberry season and an April flood? Will June be able to give Andy a child?

Favorite sentences: It was faith in God that would bring her husband home. Even a lucky penny or dime declared, “In God we trust.”

Joey Pinkney: Where did you get the inspiration to write Southern Superstitions?

B. J. Robinson: My mother’s superstitions, Bible verses, and God. I wanted to write a novel that would show God is in control, not fate or luck. Continue reading 5 Minutes, 5 Questions With… B. J. Robinson, author of Southern Superstitions →
