Customer Reviews

Loved this book

There is nothing negative that I can say about this book. The story line is really good. I loved the closeness of the brothers and the fact they all played a part in the story. I hope as I read the rest in the series that they continue to interact together as a family and close friends. The secondary characters are wonderful. Jodie Thomas writes a great story. Most writers of trilogies never bring the other previous characters into the story. I know that the main H & H are the main story line but it is not realistic when the others never have a part. All families are part of each others lives to a degree in life. That is what makes for a wonderful story and makes it seem so real.

MY HEART'S MELTIN'

The Texan saga continues in Jodi Thomas' romance. War and love rage through Texas, and you are brought along for a heartwrenching ride.

harriest klausners review in right on the money!!

No need for me to repeat all she's said. Very enjoyable and different book.

Outstanding story of the human side of love and war.

Jodi Thomas does an excellent job of using the conflicts of the Civil War to show the human side of both the men & women who fought it and the commonalities, emtions and sense of getting on with life for those who survived it. There is no good or bad side -- only the human side of life and love.

Jodie Thomas writes a great western romance

During the final weeks of the Civil War, the Gray Shadows sneak into a Union encampment and kidnap Dr. Adam McLain so that the physician can treat one of their wounded soldiers. Adam quickly realizes that the soldier under his care is actually a female masquerading as a man. In spite of knowing that he will probably be killed by his captives, Adam works on the wounded soldier. The next morning, his patient, Nichole Hayward allows him to return to his unit. A few months after the war is over, Adam returns to his family's Indiana farm. However, he knows nothing will ever be the same for him. His fiancee, whose family made a bundle during the conflict, has become a wealthy snob, who expects Adam to snub his two beloved brothers. However, Nichole soon arrives and Adam finds himself attracted to his former patient. Adam is so worn out from the horrors of the war that he just may go through the motions of marrying his fiancee as opposed to running away with the woman he loves. THE TEXAN'S TOUCH is a terrific tale that shows the healing power love grants to assist individuals in recovering from the traumas of war. The lead protagonists are a wonderful duo and the support cast adds much authenticity to the moving novel. The fabulous story line could have been a classic if Adam's fiancee was a friendly, down to earth girl, causing Adam real guilt to deal with if he breaks off from her. Still, the post Civil War romance is a winner and the audience will wait anxiously for Jodie Thomas to relate the tale of Adam's older brother.Harriet Klausner
