Tough and Tame

I enjoyed Tough and Tame. I have enjoyed Diana Palmer's books about the residents of Jacobsville (read each at least twice)and can't wait for Dangerour and Agent Kilraven's story.

interesting

ok i will start off easy with this book it was good but was missing something i dont know whats happened but it didnt have the same sparks as the other of her books and that made me sad all in all it was a good book, but it was missing something. now i really hope that there is nothing wrong with kilraven's story as i have been looking forward to it for a while please put the spark back in your work mrs. palmer.

Why do I keep reading Palmer?

As a previous reviewer mentioned, Diana Palmer is repetitive in her stories (I can not dignify them with the title "plots"). So why do I keep reading these books? Am I hoping for a return to the old Palmer style? No-I read them for the humor-mostly unintentional (I think)- of the trials and tribulations of the residents of the ever-shifting town of Jacobsville, Texas. "Ever-shifting", you ask? Jacobsville appears to be located within close driving distance of whichever large Texas city is a key location in the "plot" of the book. Houston, Austin, San Antonio...As a former resident of Wilson County, yes, Austin and San Antonio are fairly close together (in a Texas kind of way), but Houston? Not so much. This particular tale did not irk me as much as say, the Keely-Boone book. He was in his mid thirties, and Keely was 19? What do a man in his thirties and a teenager have in common? Even a teen with a "tragic past, and health problems"? Cappie seemed a relatively stable individual, without serious health problems or a terrible terrible past (except for the moron ex), and Bentley Rydell was a typical Palmer hero-alpha male with (step)daddy issues. I enjoyed the fact that Palmer left out many of the tacked on history lessons that have permeated many of her recent efforts; instead,, the reader gets a primer on Vet Techs and groomers and their function in the well-being and health of a dog. As I am neither a vet tech, nor a groomer-this did not irritate me like the "history/archaeology/anthropology" spiels do (I am working on my PhD in History). I will continue to purchase Diana's works, as they successfully provide hours and hours of comedy gold (like CSI:Miami!)
