Life of the party

Love reading this book. It is different then her other books it surprised me. I love her other books as well

Tirue feelings

Always enjoy these books Diana Palmer writes about the cowboys and ranchers and there struggles to find the women and how hard it is for them to admit there true feeling...

Disappointing. Had great reviews on Amazon but...

Would you consider the audio edition of Man of Ice to be better than the print version?

Havent read it so couldn't say...

What was most disappointing about Diana Palmer’s story?

The lead male character was such an a**hole. Mean, hateful, hurtful and in my opinion un-redeeming. The heroine was weak and a huge pushover. If any man treated my friend like this I would tell her to leave his crazy self and never speak to him again. The heroine had no self respect at all.

Which character – as performed by Jeff Crawford – was your favorite?

Jeff Crawford did a great job and was probably the only good thing about this book.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

Yes! I wanted to strangle both of them! I wanted to laugh with absurdness of this book and cry with frustration and disbelieving.

Any additional comments?

This author usually does so much better and before I purchased this book I looked at the reviews and they were all 4+ stars and great reviews. Big disappointment.

Sheer brilliance

If you could sum up Man of Ice in three words, what would they be?

heartbreakingly heartwarmingly awesome

Any additional comments?

Palmer returns to the scene and makes us fall in love with Wyoming all over again with this heartbreakingly heart-warming tale. She uses exquisitely vivid descriptions that you can’t help but picture. I can barely express how fully she drew me into this tale. The narrator really enhanced the story with his varying pace, tone, and emotion.

You get to know the main characters of this tale in intimate detail. Their past, present, and futures all make their way into this tale. I felt for these characters. My heart broke for both of the main characters in this heart-warming yet shocking tale. The supporting cast, although small, was perfect for this tale. They round out the story nicely, walking the line between family and employee.

I was emotionally invested in this story. I didn’t want it to end but at the same time I wanted to know how it turned out. It was a brilliant tale that I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend.

Interesting !

Poor female narration takes away from experience.
Life’s problems and parental negligence effected characters adulthood!
