Product Description:
Harris serves up a treat that will capture and enchant audiences everywhere—a big, bold, and irresistible novel about football, family, and secrets.
Brady Bledsoe and his mother, Carmyn, have a strong relationship. A single mother, faithful churchgoer, and the owner of several successful Atlanta beauty salons, Carmyn has devoted herself to her son and his dream of becoming a professional football player. Brady has always followed her lead, including becoming a member of the church’s 'Celibacy Circle.' Now in his senior year at college, the smart, and very handsome, Brady is a lead contender for the Heisman Trophy and a spot in the NFL.
As sports agents hover around Brady, Barrett, a beautiful and charming cheerleader, sets her mind on tempting the celibate Brady and getting a piece of his multimillion-dollar future—but is that all she wants from him, and is she acting alone?
Carmyn is determined to protect her son. She’s also determined to protect the secret she’s kept from Brady his whole life. As things heat up on campus and Carmyn and Brady’s idyllic relationship starts to crumble, mother and son begin to wonder about the other—are you just too good to be true?
A sweeping novel about mothers and sons, football and beauty shops, secrets and lies, JUST TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE has all the ingredients that have made E. Lynn Harris a bestselling author: family, friendship, faith, and love.

Average Rating: 
Rating:  - My First E. Lynn Harris Book . . . But Won't Be My Last!
Raw: An Erotic Street Tale
My mom and aunt are both big E. Lynn fans, but I've never read his books until now because I'm so much more into street lit. But WOW! I've been missing out! What a good story, with a wonderful plot twist that you just don't see coming!
I won't give it away....but umm, ..... Camryn....mmmmm
I loved this book! My mom tells me it's a lot different from his other books, but still, I'm going to go back and read all of them.

Rating: - a good, quick and easy read.
this book was my first kindle download. i am not an avid reader, however, i was able to read this in a day. thank you e.lynn for helping me get back to reading.
Rating:  - Great book
I thought that this was a good book, I have read mostly all of Harris's books and this one was just as good. I wonder is there a sequel to this book, there was no ending for what happened to Brady best friend and his mother or the baby's mother. I think that would make a great story. I can't wait to read his next book Basketball Jones.
Rating:  - Will always read E. Lynn's books
I love E. Lynn Harris but this book left me lost. There was not a clear ending to certain creators. What happen to his best friend and his mother? Is that a sequel? They just vanished in the end and I thought that was a great storyline. What about the baby and Naomi? I thought that was a great storyline--vanished. Even if I could get a blog at the end telling me to stay tune I would have been happy and this would be a hit. Now I am mad.
Rating: - You did it again
Wow, I thought I was back on "The Hill". So many references to people and places I remember from Fayetteville. Great read. Hard to put down.
