Summary: A great read fromone of the genre's best
Comment: Seventeen years ago, Michele Turner fled Crystal City, Montana, vowing never to return. Michele was in the small town for just a few months to live with her father, former Hollywood star Gavin Slade following the death of her mother. She fell under the hypnotic spell of rodeo star Sam McPhee, became pregnant, and wound up in Seattle by herself raising a boy. However, over the years, Michele became a full partner in a successful advertising agency.
The only reason she returns to Crystal City is because her father needs a kidney transplant to live and she plans to be the donor. When Michele sees Sam for the first time in all these years, she knows she still loves him. Sam was not ready to settle down then as the rodeo beckoned and has never met his troubled teenage son Cody. Now the retired champion wonders if he chose the wrong path all those years ago. He now realizes he has a second chance to rectify matters.
Susan Wiggs is the recipient of numerous awards especially for her fabulous historical romances. Her current tale THE YOU I NEVER KNEW is a powerful contemporary tale that shows the depth of talent this best-selling author has. The story line is filled with angst as the four key charcaters struggle with life, relationships and love.

Summary: something new....
Comment: I read "The You I Never Knew" over a day ago, and I'm still trying to get my hands around this book. So different than Ms. Wiggs other work, this caught me by surprise. Michelle Turner returns to Montana to help her father, save her son and find herself. What she finds is the father of her child and the love of her life. I enjoyed this work, (except--sorry Ms. Wiggs--Cowboys in Montana don't wear Levi's--they wear Wranglers!) I'll need to re-read to grasp the whole of the work. As expected Ms. Wiggs delivers complex women, facing real issues. She delivered me an even greater surprise in the form of Sam McPhee. I would have liked to see a greater level of "heat" between the two characters. Not for romance sake but to capture the reality that these are two characters sixteen years down the road. She misses an opportunity to carve out a moment of sweet understanding between these two characters, when faced with the harsh realities of time and childbirth, they don't share something profound. I really did like this novel. I think I will like it even more the second time around. I urge Ms. Wiggs to continue to write fresh work no matter the genre. Please don't fall into the trap of Danielle Steel, big money but the same old books. This is a unique and special novel....

Summary: Wonderful!
Comment: I have never read a book by Susan Wiggs before - contemporary "romance" not being my thing - however this book hooked me from the beginning. The characters, the setting, the story - they all moved me. One of the best books I have ever read. The characters continue to haunt me.
