Dream Country

Excellent read!

I started reading, & couldn't put it down. I think that this is one of Luanne Rice's books that touched me the most. This book helps you to understand why all young girls need a strong male role model in their
lives & why so many of them go looking for love in all the wrong places.

GREAT READ FOR A COLD WINTERS WEEKEND

This is the first Luanne Rice book that I have read. I enjoyed it so much. It's a far cry from the murder mysteries that I usually read so I wasn't sure if I would like it. The characters were great and I could really feel emotion for all of them. I would love for Ms. Rice to have a sequal to this book

Spellbinding

This was my first Luann Rice book, I loved it. I stayed awake 2 nights until very late, I just couldn't put it down. The way she describes the mountains and spiritual connections were soul stirring. I wanted to be riding the mountains with Daisy.

MY FAVORITE

This book is my favorite. Tells the hardship of a lost girl in search of her father. It explains many problems modern day teenagers now face. Truely a journey to remember. A page turner thats for sure.

Wow

This book was my first Luanne Rice book, but I intend to not make it my last. This was the most emotionally charged book I have read since i was extremely young and read 'Where the Red Fern Grows'. Wow, this book really brings people alive and shows so many family bonds. But, not only does it show the bonds, it shows the pain and suffering of families that didn't live the 'american dream', for whatever reason that may have been. I will cherish this book on my list of 'best ever read' for a very long time!

Easy weekend read

Good,quick read. Perfect for the I-don't-want-to-think-too-hard set. Predictable plot, but still enjoyable!

great

I loved this book I've read a lot of Luanne Rice books but this is my absolute favorite so far! If you haven't read it make time to this summer!

Wonderful rainy day book

I've never read a Luanne Rice book before, but I was pleasantly surprised at the intense pleasure I found in this book. Her characters are well defined and described. The book has a nice pace and enough mystery to keep you turning the pages.

A Touching Story

This was an awesome book! I loved it! I just got so into it! Luanne Rice inspired me to write a story. I do love to write though. My favorite charactor was Sage. It is amazing how close I felt to her when I was done with the book! Sage is a really pretty name, too.

Magical

This was the first Luanne Rice book that I've read, but it will not be my last. 'Dream Country' is a magical book. I fell in love with its characters and the vast Wyoming terrain. This is the most emotionally moving book I have read in years. Although I finished reading it nearly a month ago, I find my mind wandering time and time again to Daisy, Jake, Sage and James - to 'Dream Country'. My praises to Luanne Rice!

Not a favorite of author Luane Rice

I wasnt able to put this down but it was a book I didn't love. I had a hard time with the father not seeing his daughter ofr 13 years because he had lost his son. Why lose both of your kids??As a mom it was hard for me to relate. Also found it a little predicatble.

excellent book!

I could not put this book down! I did not want it to end. I had to read the last chapter a second time. This was the best book I have read in a long time! I will be reading all of her books.

Excellent

This was my first Luanne Rice book. It was excellent. I could not put it down. I went out and purchased more of her titles. I am a definite fan!!

Magnificent

Luanne Rice has moved from the northeast to the midwest but still brought the magic with her!

A great summer read

I found this story a great outdoor page turner. It shows you the true connection between twins. I loved the animals and the spirit of this book.

A BORE

THE PLOT WAS SO OBVIOUS I COULD HAVE WRITTEN THIS BOOK. NO SUSPENSE AND THE SO CALLED ROMANCE WAS A SNOOZE.

Poignant family drama

Most people agree that no one can ever truly go home, but events will show that if Daisy want to return she not only can, she can stay.

Daisy traveled west many years ago in search of colors that would mesh with the jewelry she creates. When she reached the Wyoming ranch of taciturn James Tucker, she fell in love and they married. Daisy gave birth to fraternal twins, Sage and Jake and everyone knew the foursome would live happily ever after. However, three years old Jake disappears while on a round up with his dad. The marriage disintegrated and Daisy accompanied by Sage returned to her home state of Connecticut.

For the next thirteen years James fails even to see his daughter once as he keeps his vow to his son to never forsake him dead or alive. Sage feels the pull of her birth state and when she becomes pregnant, journeys to her father¿s ranch where her parents greet her. The adventures of the Tucker crew have just begun.

Luanne Rice always tells a strong story about what happens in life when bad things happen to good people. This novel is character driven with heroes and villains that feel as if they come from the real world. Ms. Rice has a talent for hiding her heroes and villains from her audience. The poignant plot requires a handy tissue box as Ms. Rice leaves the reader needing tissues.
