ONE’S HEARTACHE ANOTHER’S SOULMATE by Janet Tabera
is the story of four people; Courtney, Stephanie, Adam and Malcolm. Courtney caught her man in bed with another woman, lost
her job, she is depressed and driving aimlessly, when she runs out of gas. The only house nearby is a gated mansion. In desperation,
she presses the bell and is admitted by the most amazing man.
Stephanie, a school principal, is married to Jason
who does not appreciate her at all. In fact, he is rather brutal to her and insists on everything being his way and when it
isn’t he beats her. How long will this bright woman put up with him?
Malcolm has produced a baby by someone
other than his wife. He’s always wanted a child and now this woman won’t even let him see the baby. He is enraged
and ready to sue her for full custody. The woman picks up the child and leaves the city, forcing him to hire a detective to
find her.
Adam, who suffered tragedy in the 911 disaster, wears a scarf over the lower half of his face, making
others wonder about him. Otherwise, he is an attractive, well-off man who lives in a mansion with plenty of servants. He has
his own company that is prospering, but he is lonely and perhaps a bit depressed.
How will these four people
match up? Who belongs to whom? Will any of the tension ever go away? Janet Tabera has written a tight, stressful story of
those suffering relationship mishaps. Will any of them ever be able to straighten out their lives? This is a tense story with
well-developed characters. It is easy to follow their stories and empathize with them. It is well worth reading.

Englishruler "ARC Book Club Inc" | Upon reading the synopsis on the back cover, I was lead to believe that the book contains one story. Upon reading I
found that the book contained 2 stand-alone stories. The first involved main character Courtney who was down in her luck,
but crosses paths with a man from her past, albeit mysterious. This was a decent story, but I felt that it lacked something
to bring it all full circle. There were also some decisions Courtney made early out that were a bit questionable.
I
found the second story to be much more enjoyable. This one had to do with the bonds of friendship and forgiveness. The book
as a whole contained quite a few issues with editing such as missing quotations and tense issues. However, the storylines
were good and kept me interested.
Ms. Tabera is a new author on the scene who I would like to see more of. With finer
attention to detail I can see her next book competing with some of the more well known names in the literary industry.

Ones Heartache Another's Soulmate was a
very interesting read from jump. The author does really good at keeping your interest. Its a simple read and goes straight
to the point. No small talk. The characters are so real and deal with real life situations. I would like to read more on them
and would love a sequel. I recommend this book to anyone that enjoys a mixture of drama, sex, and of course love. Even though
the book is fiction the events that take place in it are all too real. Kudos to the author!!!
