This rerelease of the first Palisades romance by Karen Ball tells the story of a young widow who learns to love again. Taylor Sorensen has a secret: there are wolves on her ranch. Taylor's new ranch hand, Connor Alexander, has a secret, too: he's a wildlife biologist who's been sent to find out if, after sixty years, wolves have returned to Wyoming. Caught in a fierce battle against angry ranchers and centuries of superstition, Taylor and Connor are drawn together by their desire to protect these wild, majestic animals. What they don't know is that there's someone else out there who hates the wolves -- someone who's as determined to get rid of them as Taylor and Connor are to protect them.

More About the Author
First thing to know about me: I love Oregon. You won't find more varied terrain anywhere. From desert to mountains to forests to the ocean: Oregon has it all. evergreens; a rugged ocean. And climate? Hot, warm, cool, cold, snow, rain, fog, blazing summer heat (as high as 115 degrees!). Every aspect of this state is beautiful in its own way--kind of like life. We face good times and bad, and yet, in every situation, God brings beauty when we least expect it.
I love that about Him.
Second thing to know: I'm a bonafide PK (preacher's kid), but I never went through a rebellion. Why not? 'Cuz my parents are a rare breed: their family was their first ministry. So here I am, a grown up PK, who loves the church, my family, and God.
Let's see...what else? I'm married to a guy who's a blend of John Wayne and Jerry Lewis. He's strong and protective--and just this side of crazy. We've had some major ups and downs, but God has brought us from a very dark place into His love and peace. It still amazes me. (THE BREAKING POINT is based on our struggles and what God taught us.) And though we don't have kids, we have great dogs--our "boy" Bodhan, a Siberian husky whose name means "God's gift." He just showed up on our doorstep one winter, and has been our sweet fella ever since. And then there's Dakota, an Aussie-terrier mix we should have named "Destructo." Good thing we love her!
Last, but not least, there's my day job. I've been an editor in Christian publishing for more than 20 years. In fact, it was my authors who told me I should be writing--and when people like Francine Rivers, Angela Hunt, and Gil Morris tell you to write, you do it. So my days are spent working with such amazing folks as Terri Blackstock, Brandilyn Collins, Bill Myers, Karen Kingsbury, and a host of others on their novels. And my evenings I'm writing. Yes, it's true: my entire life is make-believe.
So that's me in a nutshell (which is where some folks say I belong. Or was that a nut house...?) Thanks for stopping by to find out about me. Hope your day is full of God's best blessings!

Rivoting!,
By Kelli Albert (Ohio) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Reunion (Palisades Pure Romance) (Paperback)
I have read many inspiriational comtemporary romance novels, and REUNION is at the top of my list! The characters are so well-developed, they come to life. There are so many twists and turns to the story that it keeps you guessing. Too many books are predictable from page 1, but Karen Ball was able to capture my interest and bring me along through the entire story without my figuring everything out. The spiritual condition of the characters and how they turn to the Lord in their good times and bad depicts clearly the life of Christians.I love animals and nature, but was never really interested in wolves before. Karen was able to give me a wonderful admiration for these creatures through REUNION. I have shared the book with family and friends and they all loved it! Thank you for sharing your gift, Karen, and please keep them coming!

Wonderful Christian Romance!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Reunion (Palisades Pure Romance) (Paperback)
This is a great book! I loved it. It not only makes you feel the characters emotions, but gives you the little details of their lives that really bring you into the story. This book really has the qualities that separate an OK book from a great one! I can't wait for more!

Enthralling!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Reunion (Palisades Pure Romance) (Paperback)
Just finished reading REUNION. Can hardly believe this is Karen Ball's first novel. It was so enthralling, so hard to put down! I've started sending my niece some Palisades and she says they help her spiritually. I knew they helped me and the ladies I loan the books to. REUNION will help readers learn about really trusting God and how to forgive. Plus it's a wonderfully exciting story. God has truly given Ms. Ball a great talent.
