Under the Divi Tree
True Love Needs No Reason
Main Street Media Review. Chosen as Best Romance Novel.
Under the Divi Tree is a romantic tale unlike any other, featuring a couple that is suddenly separated from one another due to an unsolvable medical mystery.
Matthew and Carol are happily married college sweethearts without a care in the world. That is, until Matthew is stricken by a strange sleep disorder that leaves doctors perplexed and Carol fixated on bringing her husband back.
When modern medicine fails to provide her with an answer, she meets with a doctor from India that gives her a diagnosis concerning the metaphysical that may just save his life. The book quickly gains momentum after Matthew is diagnosed, with perfectly pitched dialogue and increasingly engaging twists that further elevate the suspense in the book. Solomon’s writing is sublime, completely immersing readers in Matthew and Carol’s love story by using cleverly placed flashbacks and giving equal importance to the exploration of both Matthew and Carol’s innermost thoughts and feelings. Although the overarching theme of the book is love, it also demonstrates how quickly life can change and reminds us to avoid taking anything for granted. With a satisfying ending, this book will inevitably tug at readers’ heartstrings and be a story they thoroughly enjoy and not soon forget.
