Fritz-Gerald’s poems are very well written and inspiring. His work is vivid and presents poignant romantic imagery. Thomas J. Doolittle, Ph.D. (Assistant Professor of Pastoral Ministry, Lee University) In the poems “Breathtaking Moment”, “Come Lay Down By My Side” ,“Color Me Speechless”, “How Sweet To Be Loved By You”, “Side By Side”...I love the sensory detail and use of color. The water and weather imagery interlaced throughout the poetry; storms, damp, evaporated and simmered bring wonderful rhythms to these pieces. Fritz-Gerald’s ability to paint a beautiful portrait of moments filled with delicate, energetic emotion is refreshing. Angel Tuggle (Library manager) The poems in “Romantically Yours” are very creative and lovely. “When You Are Angry” is one, among many, to which I can certainly relate....and I know there will be many people who will find that to be true as well. Deborah N. Nwosu, D.M.D. “Romantically Yours” is unique. Next to the Song of Solomon in the Scriptures, I don’t know that I’ve read anything that portrays the love between a man and woman in a wonderful union any better. I think God has smiled upon your work! Terry Franklin (Singer, songwriter...founder of “Heart for the World, Inc.) Fritz-Gerald’s poems reveal true emotions that ought to be felt when two hearts are in sync; they are rhythmic and profoundly sentimental. Leon W. Henriquez

One night of unbridled passion. It was the only thing Andrew McPherson and Grace Morgan could afford. Intense. Sexy. Unforgettable. They promised they would never see each other again, but fate had other plans. Andrew’s entire life has been spent working toward one goal—to own the top advertising and public relations company in the world. He’s driven, ruthless when it comes to business, never letting anything stand in his way…until Grace. Grace has worked hard to build her advertising career. She’s fiercely talented and dedicated to her clients. Grace has no interest in getting involved with a man when she knows her focus should be on her career and paying off her mounting debt. Andrew knows better than to get involved with a woman who is completely off limits, but he never backs down from what he wants, and he won’t stop until Grace is his…only this might cost him more than he’s willing to give.

A sharp and entertaining essay collection about the importance of multiple forms of love and friendship in a world designed for couples, from a laser-precise new voice. Sometimes it seems like there are two American creeds, self-reliance and marriage, and neither of them is mine. I experience myself as someone formed and sustained by others' love and patience, by student loans and stipends, by the kindness of strangers. Briallen Hopper's Hard to Love honors the categories of loves and relationships beyond marriage, the ones that are often treated as invisible or seen as secondary--friendships, kinship with adult siblings, care teams that form in times of illness, or various alternative family formations. She also values difficult and amorphous loves like loving a challenging job or inanimate objects that can't love you back. She draws from personal experience, sharing stories about her loving but combative family, the fiercely independent Emerson scholar who pushed her away, and the friends who have become her invented or found family; pop culture touchstones like the Women's March, John Green's The Fault in Our Stars, and the timeless series Cheers; and the work of writers like Joan Didion, Gwendolyn Brooks, Flannery O'Connor, and Herman Melville (Moby-Dick like you've never seen it!). Hard to Love pays homage and attention to unlikely friends and lovers both real and fictional. It is a series of love letters to the meaningful, if underappreciated, forms of intimacy and community that are tricky, tangled, and tough, but ultimately sustaining.
