“THE QUEEN OF TEXAS ROMANCE”*
 
Praise for
TALL, DARK, AND TEXAN
“A gripping, emotional read…[I] was left wondering why I haven’t read more historical romances set in the American West.”

All About Romance
 
“Wonderfully written, romantic, and delightful.”

The Romance Reader
 
“An enjoyable read from start to finish. I read the book over the holidays and found myself stealing away at odd moments from the family in order to sneak in a chapter or two.”

Reading Romance Books
 
“I loved these characters. I cared about them throughout their hardships, and cheered for them when they found their happiness. Her descriptive passages are silky smooth, her dialogue is believable and she puts the reader right in the middle of the open plains of Texas so you can almost hear the grass rustle in the wind.”

Praise for the novels of
JODI THOMAS
“One of my favorites.”
—Debbie Macomber
 
“Fantastic…A keeper!…A beautiful story about unexpected love. An exceptional storyteller, Thomas has found the perfect venue for her talent, which is as big—and as awe-inspiring—as Texas. Her emotionally moving stories are the kind you want to go on forever.”
—*
Romantic Times
“Packs a powerful emotional punch…[Thomas’s] latest Western historical romance highlights the author’s talent for creating genuinely real characters…Exceptional.”

Booklist
 
“Jodi Thomas is a masterful storyteller. She grabs your attention on the first page, captures your heart, and then makes you sad when it is time to bid her wonderful characters farewell. You can count on Jodi Thomas to give you a satisfying and memorable read.”
—Catherine Anderson
 
“Jodi Thomas’s Whispering Mountain Series is the perfect blend of rough-and-tumble cowboys, and women who command their respect and love. The reader has only to turn a page to find themselves in waist-high grass with a gentle breeze, and a majestic view of the mountains that surround the ranch. I am ready to saddle up and take a ride!”

Coffee Time Romance
 
“A fun read.”

Fresh Fiction
 
“Strong…heartwarming…Few authors can bring the reality and romance of the wild Texas towns to life the way she can, evoking the people (good and bad), the land (beautiful and rugged), and the thrilling yet dangerous lives people led. Portraying likable, real characters and the places they live is Thomas’s true gift.”
