battle. Advance
praise for ‘The Color of Jade’ 4.5 to 5 star reviews The action kept my heart racing. I loved the imagery and
emotional depth. I am very impressed with your creative range. You move from a
firm grasp on sensual ecstasy to dealing with the area of violence just as
effectively. Home is where the heart is and I thank you for sharing your heart
and your vision of home. I know I am reading a good story when I feel like I am
getting emotionally tuned in to the characters and feel tears come to my eyes.
I was touched by the response of Gage and the rest of the family. Most of all I
like your images and emotional depth that calls out thoughts, feelings and
sounds. I feel like I am reading in 3D. I feel invited as a guest to a home
with people I care about. Thanks for sharing. I love this story…
Drifter, WDC --Great
work. Excellent writing! Your attention to details, described very well is
amazing. Your characters are real and their responses and dialog are right on.
Your way of building suspense is well written. This is wonderful description;
I've never read better. You've got a great story, you have the art of creating
real characters and real relationships. You have the ability of bringing in
details of a scene to life. The story is intense and emotions can be unraveling
among the various characters.. This book was absolutely amazing. I could not
stop reading it and I can't wait to move on to the next part of Jade's story!
It was so full of suspense and action. If this was printed into a book, I would
have it on my shelf in a heartbeat! The characters were well shaped and
consistent, and I loved Jade's character! I can't express what a great story
and plot line this was. Super, great, awesome job!! Tia Marie, WDC I really love how you managed to catch the duality of
innocence and intelligence. Jade is not stupid by any means but you tell her
age through every word. Being sixteen is hard enough without having to handle rifles.
Your very true to soul descriptions make her believable and also lovable. I
hate when you're reading a story and it takes forever (if ever) to actually
gain empathy for the characters. You come right out of the gate with your
character building and I really appreciate that
Review: Teenage fiction has become a big business in the publishing world, l highly recommended it to anyone and even if you are not in to this type of book it's good to read outside your favourite genre and try something new and improved your reading to different types of books and genre and authors.
