Reviews
"A rare treat. Brenda Novak draws you in from the first page." -Barbara Freethy, #1 New York Times Bestselling Author "Novak delivers with This Heart of Mine. She's created multi-dimensional characters you can't help but admire and love. This heartwarming, page-turning romance will keep you up late at night to see what happens next. Brenda takes impossible situations and makes the reader weep, laugh and fall in love before they finish the story. Grab this book...a blanket...and curl up next to the fireplace. Be sure and give yourself a full day to read this one all the way through. You won't be sorry." -Catherine Bybee, New York Times Bestselling Author "Every book is a winner! Brenda Novak doesn't just write fabulous stories, she writes keepers." -New York Times bestselling author Susan Mallery "You know that feeling of anticipation you get when you're about to enjoy a delicious and uncommon treat? That's the feeling I get whenever I start a Brenda Novak book." -USA TODAY "Once again Novak's Whiskey Creek springs to life in all its realistic, gritty Gold Country glory as two determined, likable people come to terms with their pasts and give love a chance. This poignant, heartfelt romance puts a refreshing spin on the classic reunion/secret baby theme." -Library Journal on Come Home to Me "[Brenda Novak] weaves a tight story of human weakness and longing, with cross threads of passion and hope. One needn't wonder why Novak is a New York Times and USA TODAY bestselling author. Just read Come Home to Me." -Examiner.com "The worst part of any Brenda Novak book is the last page. I always want more. Luckily there is usually another Novak book in the wings. The Whiskey Creek series is an absolute delight and this newest installment is...so satisfying I ran out of superlatives. Brenda Novak outdid herself in Take Me Home for Christmas." -Fresh Fiction "[Home to Whiskey Creek is an] engrossing, character-rich story that takes a hard look at responsibility, loyalty and the results of telling (or concealing) the truth."
