Jane Porter lives in Seattle, Washington, with her two children. You can find out more about her at www.janeporter.com.
"She's Gone Country is a richly rewarding story about the
importance of love, family, and friendship, and Porter writes with
genuine warmth and quiet grace about the everyday problems all
women face - and conquer - in their own lives."--Chicago
Tribune
"After her husband leaves her for a man, Shey Darcy, a 39-year-old
model, takes their three sons to her family's ranch in Texas to
mourn the end of her marriage and decide what her next step is.
Though Shey is pretty sure she wants to stay in Texas, her three
teenage sons have mixed feelings. Her oldest, Hank, misses his
fancy New York prep school. Middle son Bo is mercilessly picked on
by his new classmates. But Cooper, the youngest, embraces country
life and decides he wants to learn to be a rodeo cowboy. And the
man Cooper hopes will teach him to ride is none other than Dane
Kelly, a rodeo champ Shey fell hopelessly in love with at 16 and
has never quite gotten over. Dane is divorced, but as remote from
Shey as ever, and estranged from her two older brothers, who used
to be his best friends. Narrated in Shey's appealing, warm voice, a
great favorite among chick-lit and women's fiction fans, Porter's
latest offers a compelling romance and likable characters, who will
appeal to big city and country girls alike."--Booklist
"Strongly plotted, with heroines who are vulnerable yet
resilient... All these elements are neatly tied up - with a few
twists - in an engaging, if idealized, romance."--Seattle Times
