Byron Harmon, All the Women I've Loved - This novel has to be one of the most exceptional books I have read in a long while. The way the author captures the reader's attention through the hilarious metaphors and allusions, makes it a riveting and engaging novel. I will and have recommended it to my friends and family. I especially appreciate how Harmon is able to provide a true depiction of how a man thinks and sees relationships in comparison to how women view them. I definitely give this 10 stars!!

All the Women I've Loved
Byron Harmon
Pocket, May 2004, $13.00, 212 pp.
ISBN: 0743483081
Three years together and their friends asking when, but DC TV executive LeBaron Brown is unable to pop the question to the lovely intelligent Phoenix Morgan. Disappointed since he even told their pals he will soon, Phoenix ends their relationship. Phoenix goes to Paris on business while LeBaron wonders about a French ami?
Not wanting to lose Phoenix yet feeling unready to marry her, LeBaron visits prominent psychotherapist Dr. Leighton Carter to gain wisdom as to when a man is ready to go down the aisle. Under gentle probing, LeBaron responds to Leighton's questions about his adventures on the wild side with a bunch of beautiful women. As he boasts about his notches he realizes that they lacked substance; he wonders if perhaps he is deficient in some sort of way because the beddings were fun yet seem irrelevant. When he rejects the advances of a former fling India, he knows he misses the times outside the boudoir with Phoenix. Will she give him a second chance if he overcomes his commitment phobia and tenders the ring?
This entertaining hunk lit tale provides a delightful story starring a wonderful cast. LeBaron holds the plot together as he comes across as real whether he refuses to commit to Phoenix or relates his past boudoir escapades. Though there has been a recent flood of male feelings novels, ALL THE WOMEN I LOVED is one of the best because it avoids the artificial inanity that grips many of these and their counterpart chick lit books. Instead the deep characterizations make for a fine tale especially observing the metamorphosis of LeBaron from a player to a thoughtful caring individual.
