Payback by Fern Michaels Reviewer: Pamela Ackerson author Home of the Braves trilogy Eh, it was ok Nothing to rant and rave about. We have a group of female vigilantes, running around revenging wrongs that have been done to people. The last few chapters, basically the climax of the story was worth reading. Not a lot of explanations which left me wondering, often. Like who is Willie? A ghost named Barbara keeps talking about him. No clue as to who he is. Also, I finished reading the book and didn't realize I was done. I went back to finish the novel and poof. I was already done. I didn't even realize I finished the story. I know I saw 40 pages of previews for books already written but I didn't feel as if I finished with the one I was reading. Absolutely, no desire to read the previews. It just didn't do at all. At least not for me.

We the People By: Pamela Ackerson Romance Divas Reviewed by: Pamela K. Kinney Time Travel/Historical Romance Though I'd never read the first in this trilogy, Home of the Braves , still this story of Matthew, Standing Deer's and Karen Anderson's son, and his love for Devry was compelling enough to read this novel. There had been enough information given in the beginning for me to know about the back story of the first book to be able to read this book without any confusion. Using an antique bed, Matthew travels to the past. There, he meets young Devry and falls in love with her, wishing to marry her and bring her back to our time, only to have their love forbidden by his mother. Besides the forbidden love angle, there's also a mystery, where someone is murdering the men of the local men's club. One of those accused is Devry herself. Combining the paranormal elements of time travel by a magical antique bed, historical aspects of the Old West and the Indians, romance of various characters, plus a murder mystery, Pamela Ackerson manages to blend all four into one tightly woven tapestry of entertainment that most will enjoy. 4 Kisses

Reunion by [kw]Nora Roberts[/kw] Reviewed by [a]Pamela Ackerson[/a] (author of Home of the Braves trilogy) Once More With Feeling I've always thought second time around, second chances when it came to romance was pretty much a person's way of trying to hold onto the past. Ms Roberts has taken a hold onto the past situation and made it a happily ever after. Through the whole story I had a warm happy feeling even when the main characters were struggling with their ghosts. It was a good story, definitely the kind to read curled up on the couch with a cup of tea. Treasures Lost, Treasures Found An excellent story! I whipped through this book and was disappointed when I was finished. I was not by any means disappointed because of the way it was written. I didn't want the story to end!

Pulled Along History?s Timeline By [a]Romance Junkies[/a] Reviewer: Rhea Palmer A magical time-machine bed makes its way into the Anderson household forever changing their lives. They take turns traveling back in time to learn where their true destiny lies. In the second book of Pamela Ackerson?s trilogy, it is Matthew?s turn to learn where his place is in life.

Being half Lakota himself, Matthew is torn between loyalty to his tribe and loyalty to his country.

Sitting Bull?s arrest takes a dark turn when he is shot and killed and the hatred culminates in the [t]Massacre of Wounded Knee.

How can Matthew find his destiny when Devry has no idea how different his world is from hers? In the midst of bloody confrontations and his own inner turmoil, can he keep his head and not alter history? Pamela Ackerson?s love for Native Americans shows through her writing.

The first 20 or so pages was great and then the book draaaaaaagggged. I almost didn't bother to finish reading it. In my head I kept thinking, this is Catherine Coulter it has to get better than this. So I read on and fought my way through the center of the book and zing!

Lord of Dunkeathe by Margaret Moore Reviewer: Pamela Ackerson (author -- Home of the Braves trilogy) Once in a while I like to pick up [kw]Medieval Romances[/kw] and I believe I have found another favorite author. Margaret Moore doesn't just write, she weaves a tale that draws you into the story as if you are involved in the lives of her characters.

The Secrets of Rosa Lee by [a]Jodi Thomas[/a] Reviewer: Pamela Ackerson (author of Home of the Braves Trilogy) I enjoy Jodi Thomas's books but this time I was disappointed. With each page I turned I felt as if I had read the book before, even though I know I hadn't. There were times during the story when I was confused and had to flip back and reread sections to see if I could understand what I missed. Sometimes, I couldn't find what I missed and it left me wanting. I'm not sure if it is Ms. Thomas's writing in this book or if her content editor wasn't on target. Normally, I find Ms. Thomas's books engaging and moving, this time--well, we all have our off days.
