Great

The characters were great as well as the story. I especially liked Jack. He was written to be so sweet and sexy how could I not like him. I will definely read Far Harbor when it comes out.

A new twist on family ties -- don't miss this one

I just loved this book -- it's a page-turner with a heart of pure gold. How can you not love Raine, trying to deal with her family and falling helplessly for the incredibly sexy Jack. This was a one-sitting read for me...too bad about that dinner I never fixed. :-)

JoAnn Ross just gets better and better!

This is a absolute MUST read for anyone who enjoys romance because there's nothing sexier than a man with a Nano-kitty! JoAnn Ross has an unsurpassed talent for touching the heart and I have Far Harbor, her next book, in red ink on my computer. Write faster, JoAnn!

there's no place like home after this warm novel

High priced New York attorney Raine Cantrell desires full partnership in her law firm. However, a family emergency forces the reluctant Raine to return to her hometown of Coldwater Cove, Washington. Even then, if it did not involve her beloved grandmother she would not go. When she arrives home, she finds her grandmother has been hospitalized. The woman's three foster children are barricaded in the family home so that family services cannot remove them. Finally, her mother is in jail for arson while practicing some pagan rituals in the nude. By the time Raine straightens out everything, Raine remains in town waiting for the judge to evaluate the foster care situation. The senior partners at her law firm inform her she is losing her competitive edge over other associates for the next seat on the board. She also finds herself attracted to Sheriff Jack O'Hallorhan, a widower with a precocious little daughter. Raine must decide between her love for her family and the law enforcement official and her desire to be big city law partner. HOMEPLACE is a wonderful love story and family drama that warms the heart and soul while inspiring the readers. JoAnn Ross surpasses even her high level of quality with a complex and believable tale of choices. The subplots and the supporting characters add a rich texture to a novel that is sure to be dubbed one of the special books of the year.Harriet Klausner
