I read and loved Dekker's first novel, Nashville Gold, but I must say, Mr. Malone really outdid himself with the sequel, Kentucky Roses! I could not put this book down, I read it cover to cover in a day, I tried to put it down, but kept "just one more chapter"-ing myself until the book was over. Then a few days later I read it again! The characters are so real, the author has such a gift and talent for developing his characters and getting you attached to these people, worrying about what's going to happen next, sharing in their happiness and feeling their pain. This is one of the best books I've ever read and can't wait for Mr. Malone's next book! I'm sad to see these characters go, but I am absolutely certain the next book will be as fantastic as both Nashville Gold and Kentucky Roses were!! Keep up the great work, Dekk, we need more great books like yours!!!

I admit I'm not a fan of country western type stories or country music even though I'm a native Texan. Not all of us folks wear cowboy boots and ten gallon hats. I've read NASHVILLE GOLD and was excited to get KENTUCKY ROSES. It took no time to read both because they were a pleasure and quick reading. I really came to care about the characters without realizing it was Malone's talented writing that did it. Think you're good at predicting endings? Try this one on for size... it's tough to accurately predict it. I didn't get it right and loved that.
