Cowboy And The Lady

Summary: It's O.K.
Review: I have read and enjoyed many of Diane Palmer's novels. This one felt as if I had read it before. Maybe if I hadn't read any of her other novels I might have enjoyed this one more. It had all of the characteristics of a good read. The characters were compatable once they got over all the obstacles standing in their way. The poor little rich girl who is rich no more. The hard working cowboy from the wrong side of the tracks, who is now very prosperous. They reversed roles and found out each of them had wanted the same things for alot of wasted years. In the end it all works out to everyones delight. I still feel that I have read a similar story of Diane Palmer's before.

Summary: Classic Diana Palmer!
Review: The Cowboy and the Lady is a must read for all Diana Palmer fans. It has all the trademarks of her writing; dominant man, woman down on her luck who adores the hero, but hates him in the same breath. Great Valentines Day read for true romantics.

At 18, Amanda Carson left west Texas, family scandal and a man she was determined to forget. But the Whitehall empire was vast, and when the powerful Texas family wanted something-including Amanda and her advertising agency-they got it. At sprawling Casa Verde, old fires were burning with intense fury. Jace Whitehall, a man Amanda hated and desired with equal intensity, was ready and waiting to finish what began years ago. Now, they must confront searing truths about both their families. Long-buried secrets that shattered so many lives are about to be exposed. And the very thing that drove Amanda from this land may be the only thing able to keep her there.

I bought this book as an original issue and have kept it since. It is one of my all-time favorites as it is a definite KEEPER for any true romance novel lover. If you enjoyed her Long, Tall Texans series, Rawhide Man, Cattleman's Choice or Friends and Lovers, you will LOVE this book!

Review: This is a classic DP theme, which I really like the idea and plot, but felt there were gaps. Like...it needed more understanding of the characters, and more depth in the storyline. What was Amanda's mom's secret for Amanda? She never told it. Where was the closure with Jace and Amanda's mom and his mom who knew about the affair as well. What happened to Tess? Terry? The account? The plane wreck and her accident on the horse didn't pan out. The ending when she thought he wanted her as his mistress, again, was just ridiculous. This just seemed a little too hurried or something. It is a one-day reader though, if you want some escape for a few hours.

Summary: Not What I Expected
Review: When I saw this book in the bookstore I couldn't wait to get home and start reading it. The book started off with a bang and then took a nose dive. I have never in all my reading seen a heroine as weak as Amanda and I have seen plenty but this was Ridiculous. The Mother was trifling and "Jace" although good-looking was mean as hell one minute and honey this the next and if I had to hear about her slender body and hands more time I thought I would scream. Overall I did not like this book what- so-ever.
