Wyoming True by Diana Palmer

Format - Ebook

I give this book a 3 out of 5 Stars


This book was an easy read for me. I started it for that reason alone. I have long debated whether or not I want to continue reading Diana Palmer’s books because they are all almost the same.


With that said I enjoyed this book in all it’s predictableness. It was your typical Palmer book. Man meets woman he despises. Finds out that she is really a good person even though she has a completely different persona that she puts forth in public. Then comes the marriage of convenience to protect her. Ending up with them falling in love. 


This book does deal with the violence involved with domestic abuse. Which strikes a cord with me because I am a survivor of that. Definitely not to the extent that the woman in the book was abused but that is one of the things I like about Palmer’s books, she deals with the tough issues in society. I also like that there is always a knight in shining armor to help out in the woman’s time of need.


After reading this book I think I will continue to read her books when my brain is fried for other more intense books. It is only a few days before Christmas as I am writing this and everything is overwhelming. So a nice easy read was a good choice for me. I only gave it three stars because of the predictability.


In researching domestic violence I found this webpage where people can go for help. The website address is https://www.thehotline.org/. This is just one among many places people can go if they or a loved one is in danger from experiencing domestic abuse. If things get too dangerous I can’t stress enough to call 911 first and have the person removed. Most cities have safe places to go to when a person is in this situation. Sometimes only the people that work there and one or two cops in the city know how to get ahold of them. This is a problem that must be addressed and I applaud Palmer for making people think more about it.

Review of author Christine K. Fields

Genre Children’s Books I read three books by this author and all three were 5 star reads for children! I read Alphabet Stuff With Nuff, Saving Money Makes Cents,  Teamwork Makes Dream Work all by this author.  The Alphabet Stuff With Nuff book is a great way to get pre-K kids excited about learning letters and counting. It is all done in rhyme and had me laughing in parts. I would recommend the adult read through it a couple of times before reading it to their children. There are some wicked twisters in this one. The goal is to get your children to learn their alphabet and simple counting while you read the book. They have to count each time that letter comes and add them up. The answers of the number of letters in each rhyme are thankfully in the back of the book. The other two books I would say are more of kindergarten age book, One teaches about saving money and how fast it goes if you don’t pay attention. Something I have to say I have not learned at my age. This is perfec...

Windswept by Annabelle McCormack

Windswept Saga Book 1 Narrated by Elizabeth Grace Genre - Intrigue, Mystery, Romance Rating - 5 out of 5 Narration Rating - 5 out of 5 This book had me hooked from the beginning. It was so full of twist, turns, and mysterious circumstances that it just grabbed me in and I hated to stop listening even for bed. This book is sent in 1917 during WWI in Egypt. It has a lot of different characters but they are very easy to follow. It is about a woman thrown into a world of murder and mayhem in the war-ravaged Arabian desert where one wrong turn can get you killed. She has no clue who to trust and people keep showing up telling her that she can trust them but she has no idea which one is telling the truth. I have to give a shout-out to the narrator for keeping the book flowing and also her wide range of voices for each character. I think that is why while listening to this book I could keep each person separate.  I would highly recommend this book in audiobook format or book f...

A Cowboy Christmas Legend by Linda Broday

Genre - Christmas Fiction Rating - 5 out of 5 stars I picked out this book because of my ongoing obsession with cowboys. Plus I wanted to get into the Christmas spirit early this year. This book definitely didn’t disappoint.  This book is about a Texas Ranger running from grief and a women coming to grips with her own past. As they work together they end up bonding together to help rescue and take care of a Mother and her two children plus helping with a case for the Texas Rangers. The plot is a very stereotypical romance but it did not disappoint. With all the happy endings that we all look for at Christmas time. So if you are looking for a nice easy Christmas book to read I would definitely recommend this steamy Christmas read.
