Beyond The Picket Fence And Other Short Stories

I absolutely love this book. When I received this book in the mail, it exceeded my expectations on the condition of the cover and pages. With this purchase and previous book purchases, I have made a habit of looking for HippoBooks because of the quality and speed at which I receive this book. Thank you.

Short stories you will love

As always, I was impressed my Lori Wick's fabulous gift to write down-to-earth stories with wonderful plots and loveable characters. Usually I am not a huge fan of short stories because I enjoy getting to know characters on a deeper level; however, Lori brought each person to life so when the charming story ended, I was sad to conclude a well developed story. A wonderful asset to the "Lori Wick Book Collection," and a great book to keep and read over and over again.

This is one of her best!

This is a great book of short stories. I had never really read short stories before because they left me at a dead end, these leave you hanging but also give you a good idea about what will happen next. Kind of like sweet and sour sauce. My favorite is "Be Careful With My Heart". Its a great story about finding love after you have lost your first love.She couldn't have written a better book of short stories.

A great book

I love short story books, and this one, being written by Lori Wick, was wonderful. The title story, Beyond the Picket Fence, was charming. Intense Man was the best story, I felt, of the book. The "intense man" in that story was a rough man, with a bad temper, but the heroine of the story, being a good Christian woman, stood by and took his rantings. I got really emotional when I read this story because of the way Ms. Wick brought them together. The other stories in this book were really great. I loved the Christmas Gift, and Christmas For Two was very romantic. The first story about the singing group caught my attention, and the rest of the stories never let it go. I loved this book, and I hope that Ms. Wick will benefit us by writing more like this.

One of her best-Except for one story

These stories are like the "heart" of one of her books. They can be read and enjoyed more than once. However, one story about an "intense" man is an example of how Christian women can be abused in the name of the Lord. Tread carefully with this story. Otherwise, I love Lori Wick's stories.
