Book Description

25 July 1994 Gambler's Daughters Trilogy
The Lady and The Ledgend Two dreams could come true for Diamond Houston when her idol, Jesse Eagle, walks into the rundown roadhouse where she is singing for tips. Tall and temptingly handsome, Jesse just might be Diamond's ticket to Nashville. And Jesse does something special to her when their eyes meet -- lighting passionate fires inside Diamond with the unspoken promise of nights to remember...and the one thing she desires most of all: "true love." The voice of an angel brought Jesse back to this small I town in middle-of-nowhere Tennessee. And now that he's met Diamond Houston, he is enchanted by much more than her remarkable talent. But proud and beautiful Diamond is nobody's one-night stand; if he wants her, he'll have to change his rambling ways. And "everything" may be what Jesse has to risk if he wants this rare jewel to sparkle for him alone.

5.0 out of 5 stars SHARON SALA IS THE QUEEN OF ROMANCE 24 Mar 2000
By A BIG FAN - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Mass Market Paperback
I read "Diamond" in one sitting, and I couldn't put it down. This is a story about a woman who has a beautiful voice and loves to sing country music. A chance meeting has her being discovered by country singings hottest sensation "Jessie Eagle," and from there the story takes off. Sharon Sala has the God-given gift of making her readers feel like their part of her stories. I swear that every time "Diamond" sings in this book, I can actually hear her. Way to go Miss Sala!

5.0 out of 5 stars Trust Me, You Don't Want To Miss This One! 9 Mar 2003
By Kristi Ahlers - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Mass Market Paperback
This was by far my favorite book in the series. I read them out of order, which is something I always do but it did not matter. Each story stands on it's own. This story touched on all of my emotions, I cries, and I laughed out loud, I also admit to falling a little bit in love with Jesse the hero.

Diamond is the first to leave Cradle Creek after her gambler father dies. She leaves after a chance meeting with Jesse Eagle a famous country singer that heard Diamond sing and knows that she has what it takes to make it in Nashville. Diamond has stars in her eyes and despite the fact that she trust no man, she takes a gamble on Jesse, packs, and leaves that very same night.

Jesse heard Diamond sing the first time while she sang "Amazing Grace" at her fathers grave side and could not get her out of his mind. He turns around and goes back to the small Tennessee mountain town and finds her right away singing in a dump. He is compelled to take her back with him to Nashville, he know she will be a huge star.

Jesse and Diamond soon fall for each other, and their love is wonderful. But there is someone in Jesse's world that thinks that Diamond will ruin it all and sets out to destroy her and her chances at making it big before she even gets a chance. What this person does not know is how much these two love each other or the strength of will that they both have. Love will win the day but not before both are put to the test.

This again was by far my favorite in the series, the characterization is wonderful, and the story basically tells it's self. I managed to inhale this one in one night. I hated to see it come to an end. Trust me, you don't want to miss this one by a wonderful and talented author.

Format:Mass Market Paperback
This was the best book I have read in a very long time. Sala really hit the mark with the characters: such deep and emotional feeling. She draws you into the story as you feel the passion and depth of emotion throughout the book. I will definitely look for other books by this author.
