Review: 
I was excited to get a copy of this, from One2One Network, as I love her previous albums. I was a little disappointed in it though. I liked a few of the songs, but not many. Maybe upon listening to it again I'll hear something else I like, but it's not too likely.
 
I received a copy of the CD, in advance of it's release, from One2One Network in exchange for an honest review.
