Incredible

OMG!!!!! Every time I read this book it guets better and better. The love scens are hot, what more can a girl ask for!!!. The storry between the cuples are so romantic especialy between the gangster and Cole's sister. At the end I wanted them to be together. I love Dian Palmer's books they are always unforgetable.

LOVE this story!

I absolutely loved this story! It is a typical Diana Palmer story, with the angry male character that loosens up after a woman's loving! However, I truly love her writing and love the "angry" male characters. The setting in this story takes place after World War I. I am a huge history buff, so that fact made it much more interesting! There are three different love stories going on all within this book, but they are all interrelated. Here's what I have to say: If you like Diana Palmer's other stories you WILL enjoy this one as well. If you have never read Diana Palmer before START with this one because it is exceptional. If you are looking for a great read that won't take but a few days to read: pick this book up! Enjoy!!

Lacy

When Lacy Jarrett and Coleman Whitehall are forced to marry, Lacy tries desperately to make their marriage work. She loves Cole with all her heart, but Cole won't even try. When Cole goes off to war and comes back a changed man, his indifference towards Lacy causes her to leave. Eight months later, Cole goes to bring his wife back. There are more hardships ahead for them and Cole has a secret that he's sure will drive Lacy away forever. Cole's brother and sister, Ben and Katy, have problems as well. Faye Cameron is in love with Ben but Ben's looking for sophistication and opportunity. Faye is just a girl he's known all of his life; she can't offer him anything, except her heart. Katy has been in love with Cole's friend, Turk Sheridan, since he came to work at their ranch, but Cole warned Turk away from his sister. Turk has demons of his own as well, so he pushes poor Katy away. Pride can blind a man and prevent him from accepting the love that is right in front of him. Drama and passion fill the pages of Lacy. Cole, Turk, and Ben are prideful and stubborn men but their women's devotion for them never sways. Lacy gives new meaning to the words "angst-filled". There were times when I thought I just couldn't bear it anymore, but it's such and an engrossing and well written story that I just couldn't put down! Lacy is a saga loaded with heartache, grief and longing as well as love, lust and reconciliation. Lacy has realism and heart with an ending that is emotional and heartwarming. Lacy stayed in my mind long after I finished reading it. Nannette Reviewed for Joyfully Reviewed

Very enjoyable

I love Diana Palmer's books and this one was very enjoyable. I liked the early 1900 time setting with the post WWI setting. The story has three main stories with all the usual conflicts, romance, and adventure. Although the title is Lacy and she is the main character, I really enjoyed the storyline with Katy, Turk, and the gangster life in Chicago.

HAVE TO READ THIS GIVE IT A CHANCE

This was one of my first Diana Palmer books. I loved this book. It was the reason I have bought every single one of all her other books. Kate's story was actually my favorite with the mobster and everything that was different. I also like the story between the main characters. I laughed and actually cried throughout this book. Just couldn't believe how involved I got in it. Let two of my friends read because it was so good and I never share my books, made them promise to give it back. I'm reading again just because I love it!
