My heartfelt thanks to those of you who have read
A Rose for Sergei—and a special
thanks to those who took the time to write a review. Reviews help people find books and my purpose
in writing this book was so everyone would learn more about Sergei Kourdakov.
One recent review on the Amazon web site caught
my attention because it captured the very reason I wanted to write this book .
. . so you would know Sergei better. Reviews
on Amazon are in the public domain; therefore, I have reprinted this moving
story below.
Close to My
Heart
Reviewer: BethySim
Ah,
Sergei. What can I say? I couldn’t have been gladder that he came back,
that we can read more about him and get to know him better. This story is touching and bittersweet,
embodying the reality of life and at the same time the magic of love. I highly recommend.
Kolleen and
Sergei’s story lies especially close to my heart (as the title of the review
suggests) because of my own dealings with a young Russian. I, like K., am from German descent. I met a tall, muscular Russian at the end of
2013 when I took a job as an administrative assistant, and I was enraptured by
him. We hit it off very well although we
never dated or anything, I treasured the time we were able to spend together
before he moved away. I wish I had an
opportunity to know him better, but some things are not meant to be. It was curious, however, because I met him
barely two weeks after finishing “The Persecutor.” And his middle name is Sergei. Oh, the irony of existence!
