Wyoming Strong

Palmer’s vivid yet realistic and down to earth writing drew me in from the beginning. Her style and approachability allows you to enter this story and picture it quite easily. Palmer packs a great deal of controversy into this novel. Whether I fully agree with her ideas and take on it or not, she does make it believable and allows readers to see how it works for her characters. I will admit, however, the fact that this book is called Wyoming Strong and the bulk of it takes place in Texas did throw me for a loop. By the end of the story it all makes sense, but throughout I found myself questioning it repeatedly. I had a love-hate relationship with these characters. There were parts of them that I loved and other parts that had me questioning their sanity, repeatedly. The tension, animosity and fireworks between the main characters jump off the page at you. You simply can’t escape it and it makes their relationship feasible. The WoW and online gaming aspects of the main characters was a nice twist. I thoroughly enjoyed it, for the most part. The secrecy involved in something so trivial was a bit odd. Overall this was a very enjoyable book. I personally found that it was

WOLF PATTERSON & SARA BRANDON: What a story! Powerfully written revelations about being broken and damaged! What terrible effects of mental, physical, emotional and sexual abuse on others! Each of us carries some kind of scars. Quite a love story! Love the mercs, humor, the intrique, the happiness! Thank you, SK, for being an advocate and voice for those who suffer through abuse; and, for offering healing and hope!

Loved the story, it made me laugh, cry, and mad at times but I loved how they found comfort in each other like best friends do.
