If you scroll through my recent archives, you will see that I recently reviewed Jane Porter's first book, The Frog Prince. I was on the fence about it, I liked it, but did not love.I just finished reading Jane Porter's newest book, She's Gone Country and I absolutely loved this book! This is the kind of writing that gives Chick Lit a good name!
Shey Darcy, a 39 year old super model, has just discovered that her husband of seventeen years is in love with someone else, a man. Shey does what all women wounded by love does, she goes home. Shey packs up her three sons and leaves New York City for the Texas ranch she left behind as a teenager. She rediscovers all of the things she left behind, including old flame, Dane Kelly. Moving home is not as easy as Shey had hoped. While she loves it, her boys are not settling in very well and are grossly unhappy. Will she be able to change their minds or will she once again have to give up everything she loves?
She's Gone Country has everything a good Chick Lit novel should have. A strong woman character, a problem to solve that most women can relate to, and a sexy love interest. She's Gone Country is a very easy and quick book to read, but once you get to the end of the book, you are glad you have spent some time with the characters and are left wanting a sequel.
