Product Description

From the Author
A book about women finding their powers
Reviewers are comparing my book to THE BRIDGES OF MADISON COUNTY and HORSE WHISPERER, and in terms of a love story being central to the plot, they have a point. But NIGHT RIDE HOME seems about so much more besides -- the death of a child, the different ways to deal with grief, a marriage falling apart, the differences between men who control and those who love, and most of all, how women learn how strong they are and what they can accomplish when they're brave enough to try. I would love to hear reader comments.

5.0 out of 5 stars A true to life romance, 10 Jun 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Night Ride Home (Paperback)
I felt that this book was beautifully written, and says a lot about human nature. I think that this book would appeal more to a female audience because of the focus on a woman who has to deal with the death of a child and the realization of the fact that her marriage is falling apart. I like that fact that each chapter is told from a different character's point-of-view giving you insight into each of them. I also liked the fact that it was a romance novel but not a sappy one. This was true to life and easy to relate to making the novel more appealing to an audience. I personally would recommend this book to anyone who enjoys romance and happy endings.

5.0 out of 5 stars The strength of one woman battling life's challenges., 2 Mar 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Night Ride Home (Paperback)
This page-turning story is filled with heart-warming romance and the pain of reality. I found myself giving Nora advice and hating Neal for his selfishness. You tend to see a lot of yourself in Nora when she has these major decisions to make about her life and the life of her daughter in coping with the death of her son. This story makes you look at your life and wonder if you could have the same strength as Nora. This book was written elequently.

5.0 out of 5 stars An excellent fix for horse people, 30 Jan 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Night Ride Home (Paperback)
There aren't all that many novels that are decently written and have realistically portrayed horses in the background. This thoughtful, well-written novel kept me reading avidly.
