Breaking the Chains of Judgment

In the small Iowa town that Jennie Munday grew up in, she had been labeled too tall, unattractive, and an old maid. Jennie’s solution was to board a train bound for Kansas where a job was waiting for her. What Jennie didn’t realize was that she was not only running away from labels that had been put on her, but she was running toward who she wanted to become; a strong, beautiful, passionate, confident young woman. This is truly a tale of self discovery and redemption with a healthy dose of romance added in for a little zip and pizzazz.

The Texan and the Lady

I love books about old Texas, and Jodi Thomas is one of the best to give descriptions of it. This is one of my favorite stories, getting so wrapped up in the charactors.

A Wonderful Book By Jodi Thomas

I really enjoyed reading the story abouot Jennie's journey to find happiness by becoming a Harvey girl. This story shows how each of us have strong points when given the opportunity to develope them. Jodi has characters who are brought together and the way she tells the story is well written and kept me reading. I loved True! You will enjoy this book if you like historical western romances about ordinary people without steamy scenes of sex. I thought it was one of Jodi's best books that I have read.

From the back cover

Jennie Munday left her sleepy Iowa home to become a Harvey Girl. On a train bound for Kansas and her exciting new life, she met Austin McCormick, a gruff, abrasive Texas Marshall who seemed to be everything she disliked in a man. But when their train is held up by gun slinging outlaws, Jennie is thrown together with the stubborn Texan and learns that the law can be deadly and dangerously filled with desire.
