Summary: Love those cowboys!
Review: As is the case with almost all romances, the characters are attracted to and fall in love with each other all to quickly. What sets this story apart from most others is the very real tragedy described in it. It has a very sad background story that is a focal point in the beginnings of the romance.

My favorite part of this book though is the family ranch dynamics described. I always love books with rough and handsome cowboys, but I like this one because it includes his family and their relationships that carry on through the rest of the West Texas series. Ginger Chambers did an excellent job with this series.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: I Just Finished Reading This Book.
Review: It is the first book that I've read by this author. I don't know what to think. The hero (?) acted like such a jerk throughout most of the book. He may have been the epitome of virility but he had no other redeemable qualities. It was often hinted that his cynical attitude was because of his childhood but the reader was never told what his childhood was like beyond the fact he was often ignored by his wealthy parents.

The heroine was somewhat more realistic in that she let her heart lead her into what seemed to be a one sided love affair. I say realistic because I have seen so many young women fall in love with men who they think will change their ways. I'm not saying that it is sensible.

But it's not realistic for him to change on the last page and the reader leave with the feeling of a "happy ever after".

Needless to say I am not going to keep this book to re-read at some later date.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Night of the Cotillion
Review: Janet Dailey, as always did a great job in exposing the estacy of attraction. I found and read only the middle half of that book when I was sixteen years old, and was so captivated and hooked that I have been looking for that book ever since. Now in my forties I still can't get that book out of my thoughts. I Janet Dailey is a woman whom I feel is or has been in love and understands the beautiful and compelling feeling that God intended to be experienced between a man and a woman. It is a beautiful book.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Home On The Ranch(Ginger Chambers)
Review: Long Before the War Between the States, Parker sons and daughters ranched Parker land. Eighty-one-year-old Mae Parker aims to keep things that way.And as far as Mae-and almost everone else on the ranch-is concerned, her word is Law. Except to her great-nephew Rafe.

That's why Mae invites Shannon Bradley to the ranch.Something about Shannon-the only person other than Rafe who has ever stood up to Mae- gets under his shin.Still, after years of watching his great aunt manipulate the rest of his family, he's damned if he'll fall in love on Mae's order!

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Not my cup of tea
Review: This book was a huge disappointment to me! I have a compulsion to finish every book I start but this one made that task very difficult! Jordan was such a pig headed jerk! And Amanda was such a coward! He practically turned her into a whore forcing her to marry him to help her family financially. I picked this book up at a garage sale and next summer I'll be selling it in mine. Janet, you've come a long way baby!
