Critics Review
“There is nothing better than Dorothy Garlock at her best.” — Sandra Brown, New York Times bestselling author
“A gentle tale of love lost and found…The charm is in the telling, with historical details and light touches to make the town of Sunset, Missouri, seem real, not idealized. A feel-good love story that comforts…Garlock excels at creating an experience her readers want, one that’s still heartwarming…”–Kirkus Reviews on Twice in a Lifetime“A gifted writer.”–Chicago Sun Times“Every Dorothy Garlock book is synonymous with a great read.” — Janet Dailey, New York Times bestselling author“Garlock’s lovely, sweet novel is a testament to the last great generation.”-RT Book Reviews on Take Me Home
“Take Me Home has a unique perspective for a historical novel set during World War II.”-FreshFiction.com on Take Me Home
“Garlock’s terrific story, set in mid-20th-century Missouri, pairs a lonely single mother with a flashy auto racer…Garlock keeps readers so wrapped up in Drake and Clara’s romance that it’s impossible to put the book down. There’s just enough tension, from a few different fronts, to keep things interesting. Thoroughly credible characters and the aw-shucks charm of their small town make this a winner.”–Publishers Weekly starred review on Twice in a Lifetime“One of America’s most endearing historical fiction authors.” –RT Book Reviews“The latest from romance doyenne Garlock mixes light suspense with traditional romance for an entertaining effect.”–Booklist on Under a Texas Sky“There is nothing better than Dorothy Garlock at her best.” — Sandra Brown, New York Times bestselling authorAbout The Author
