What readers are saying about The GOODLANDS…
- “From its captivating first chapters, the development of warm, loyal characters and vivid descriptions of nature’s landscapes, The GOODLANDS is both intriguing and relaxing to read. I hope there’s a sequel that keeps up with the evolution of the Rios family ranch.
- “As a native of Arizona, the details in this story are very relatable, not to mention true! The author has a realistic knack for describing the location of her story, the animals, and colorful local characters. I really lost myself in the story.
- “A well-told story keeps you guessing! Her phrases create stop-and-enjoy moments. Love how the nature references are embedded."
- One of the best books I’ve read in a long time.”
