Summary: More than Just a Piece of Heaven
Comment: Barbara Samuel has done it again - written a book that has a wonderful story without being a formula of her previous book. Luna McGraw, a former therapist, a recovering alcoholic, and in the midst of trying to quit smoking is working in the floral department of the local supermarket in Taos, New Mexico. Luna's life is finally becoming balanced again when she meets Thomas Coyote, the man she's had a crush on for years, and when her daughter, Joy, comes to live with her. The story is lyrical and luscious. Samuel brings New Mexico to the reader in a way that makes you want to go there and visit if not to live.
I think it's a mistake to classify Samuel's books as "romance." They are more than that. But if you like romance novels (not that there's anything wrong with that), then fine. And if you don't, please try this one. You'll be pleasantly surprised to find this wonderful artist who takes words and weaves them into a literary treat.

Summary: It doesn't get any better...
Comment: characters + setting + details + humor + humanity = five stars for me. I loved this book and am emailing all my friends. I hope future ones are just as good. As a side note, the covers don't reflect the gritty, humorous, real prose inside. If I was picking it up based on the cover I'd expect a quiet story about love and loss in a happy neighborhood. This, it is not.

Summary: Barbie says this book is great!
Comment: After enjoying "No Place Like Home," I was eager to read Barbara Samuel's next book. I liked this one even better. It's warm and wise, filled with beautiful and evocative passages that transport us to New Mexico. As a mother and author myself, of NEW PSALMS FOR NEW MOMS: A KEEPSAKE JOURNAL, I especially enjoyed the mother-daughter relationship that develops. This book is a tale of love, hope and redemption...it really is a little piece of Heaven.
