I’m very grateful to begin the year with this review. A heartfelt thank you to all who have purchased my book, written a review, and helped spread the word. All profits are going to help rescue dogs.

So often we hear the phrase “cancer survivor” or “cancer patient”, which sometimes leads us to forget that these are real people, with real emotions. Paulette Mahurin’s novel, His Name was Ben, is a beautifully written and poignant novel. It reminds us that people with cancer are indeed real people, trying to live their life, all the while fighting though a terrible disease.
Her characters are so well developed that you cannot help but become immersed in their lives. The book will tug on your emotional heart strings and will stay with you long after you put it away.
But in the end, the book is a tribute to the most important thing all humans need – love. Love between a man and woman, love for animals, love for life, etc. A love that can transform your life.
I strongly recommend this book to everyone.

Thank you for the likes, in the dead of winter, they are very therapeutic and do not go unnoticed. Looking forward to that odd Friday the 13th / Valentine’s Day combo…my gift to me will be a kindle and a download of your book so I can like you back. Happy Valentine’s Day! Peace, Harlon
Hello Harlon, What a lovely message to start my day, thank you! Even though it’s supposed to be “winter” here, we are hitting all time highs in the 80s which isn’t good for the drought. Wishing you warm thoughts to help you stay warm. Enjoy your kindle and Happy Valentine’s Day this coming Friday the 13th. 🙂
