    I wish I could give more then 5

    This is one of my alltime favorite books by Diana Palmer. I love this book and have reread it many times over the years. Originally written under her Susan Kyle penname, it tells the story of Meredith Ashe who goes home looking for revenge and finds so much more. It shows that you can sometimes go home again.

    Superb romance

    Six years ago, pregnant teenager Meredith Ashe is run out of Billings, Montana by Myrna, the mother of her lover Cy Harden. Myrna paid Tony Tanksley to rob her family safe and accuse his lover Meredith as his accomplice. Cy believed his mother and Tony over his girlfriend. Meredith refused to take any money from the Hardens and returned Cy¿s gifts to Myrna. Multi-millionaire businessman Henry Tennison meets a distraught Meredith wandering Chicago and takes her under his wings. The lonely older man eventually marries Meredith and raises her son Blake as his own. He taught her how to wisely invest, but not too long ago Henry died................................ Needing mineral rights that Cy `s firm owns and to sell her recently deceased aunt¿s home, Meredith returns to Billings. The attraction between her and Cy remains heated and guilt racked Myrna knows she did wrong. However, Meredith is not a frightened teen, but is a confident woman who informs Myrna her price to leave town is the truth. As she works a hostile takeover, her brother-in-law Don spins a double cross and Cy realizes something is not right between the two women he loves. All comes to a head when Myrna faints upon seeing Blake...................... Though having a Falcon Crest and Dallas feel to the plot, fans will appreciate this fine boardroom romance as the lead couple remains in love yet neither trust the other because Cy chose his mother¿s ¿truth¿ over his beloved¿s contention. Though Don seems foolish in his power grab to eliminate his highly regarded by the board sister-in-law that could cost his company millions, fans of second chance at love soap opera romances will enjoy this fine tale of revenge......................

    Don't Bother to Read...Not Worth the Time

    Having read some other of Palmer's books, I was very disappointed at True Colors. The storyline got to be a bit ridiculous, but what bothered me more was that the book seemed to be a poorly-written rip-off of Judith McNaught's "Paradise," which is one of my favorites. (McNaught, Diana Gabaldon and Kathleen Woodiwiss are some of my favorite authors of this genre. Not only do they weave wonderful stories, but all are excellent writers.) Timeless themes of betrayal, vengence, accountability and renewal are the essence of most fictional work. Palmer took a short cut with True Colors and wrote a basic, totally-forgettable romance book that could have been written by 1000 other "romance" authors.

    Very Disappionting

    I couldn¿t even finish it. It became too predictable and too much like a soap opera. Cy¿s character was despicable and everything was too far fetched.

    True Colors

    This started out as a promising story, young pregnant Meredith run out of town by a mean-spirited woman (Cy's mother). It spiraled into the unbelievable scenario of Meredith being 'rescued' by a billionaire after being on her own for one day. Wow! After being afforded an education and inheriting everything her generous benefactor owns, she is still drawn to the man who treated her so cruelly. Bad story and unlikable characters.

    True Colors

    This book was simply awful. The main characters Meredith and Cy were totally unlikable. Every chapter contained the same head spinning does he/she love me, does he/she not. Don't waste your time or money on this one!

    Truly Enjoyable

    I will admit that some of the story is far-fetched...happening to meet a rich man to play a prince after her true love isn't man enough to defy his mommy did make my eyes roll. But for the most part I really enjoyed the characters, mostly I guess bc this was one of the few times when the woman was strong. I always enjoy seeing the man crawl to get her back!
