Summary: Another outrageous Book!!!
Review: I must admit that this book started out a little slow and I was just beginning to give up on it when it started to become engrossing. This book goes much farther beneath the surface than a lot of Lori Wick's other novels. She does a tremendous job of tying the readers emotions into the storyline. There was also elements of surprise, especially the ending which paves a very exciting road to the sequel. I was delighted with this book, as I usually am with Lori Wick. I must say I would like for her to write more novels with as much depth as this one.

Summary: She's outdone herself!!!! What a tale!!!!
Review: Lori Wick has done it again with her deep and romantic tale of Jackie Fontaine and Clay Taggart. Jackie took a little getting used to, but who couldn't but instantly fall in love with Clay? This book also helped me learn a great lesson: if you have faith, the Lord will provide for you. And if you have faith, you will find eternal happiness and love with someone wonderful. Huzzah for Lori Wick and her amazing characters!!!!!

Summary: Another outrageous Book!!!
Review: Lori Wick has really outdone herself again! Where the Wild Rose Blooms was an excellant book. I never put it down! Jackie Fontaine may have a rotten streak about her, but passion lingers at the lowest part of her heart. It is amazing how Clayton Taggart cares for her. Then something tragic happens that leaves Clay to wonder about what is going on between him and Jackie. I hope from the bottom of my heart that you will read this book and other books done by Lori Wick. The thing that draws me toward Lori Wick's books are that they teach me things. I hope you will enjoy this book as much as i have.

Summary: A Good Read (Almost 4 Stars)
Review: This book is definitely one of my favorite Lori Wick books. It seems to be "deeper" than the rest. It is the story of the Fontaine family and Clayton Taggart, set in the 1870's in Colorado. "Where The Wild Rose Blooms" focuses on the romance between Clayton and Jackie, one of the Fontaine girls. I particularly liked the characters in this book. They were certainly not perfect (especially Jackie) and seemed much more believable in their flaws than some of Lori's other characters. Because of the "believability" and development of her characters, we really enjoyed the romance a lot more and felt very rewarded when it happened-even though we knew it was coming. This is a nice, fun, and sometimes thought-provoking read that you'll enjoy.

Summary: Blind love
Review: This is my first book, but definitely not my last, of Lori Wick's that I have read. How adorable and beautiful this novel is. A valuable lesson in this is to be learned and that is that we can make it through any struggle we have with the Lord's help and ONLY with the Lord's help. How beautiful and marvelous this novel is. I gave it 4-stars because I had a difficult time staying awake at several points throughout the book. But, great read overall.

Summary: Blind love
Review: this is one of the best books I've read. Clayton Taggart was such a romantic guy, never giving up on the one he loves. Jackie Fontaine was one tough girl. she alomost gave up but love kept her going. this is a really great book and really suggest it if you are into romance and the love of God.

Summary: excellent
Review: this was the first book that i read by lori wick and it had me absolutely hooked. i smiled with the characters, cried with them, felt like i was living their life! i know my family got mad at me because i was reading it every chance i got....i just couldn't put it down! i bought the next three books in the series almost as soon as i finished it. now i have a fairly good-sized collection of lori wick's books just because this first one was SO good. i can't even describe how good it was. and they are very eye-opening. all of lori wick's books make me look at my spiritual life and wonder if i couldn't do better, like the characters in her books.

Summary: A Wonderful Read...
Review: While I enjoy Lori Wicks books, this story seemed to have more depth to it than some of her other books. I must admit, the book jacket synopis misled me. I thought it was going to be a nice, heartwarming love story -- and it was to a point. But it was much more than that. It was a story of unconditional love and determination. I admired Jackie's spunk and determination. I admired the love the Fontaine family showed for one another. I especially enjoyed Jackie's sister and brother in law who were such a force in working with Jackie after her tragic accident. I loved Clayton and how he never gave up on Jackie, even after he received the disturbing letter from her telling him she had met someone else. This story was a wonderful read and inspiring. I'm now looking forward to reading others in this series.
