Rainbow Lane in Harmony, Texas is the heart and real
home of many young people, even though they have denied it
for years and for different reasons. Ronny Logan has
returned home to be alone, following a year of travel after
her one true love has passed away. Her mother Dallas Logan
is not someone she plans to see as they haven't seen eye to
eye since Ronny left home at twenty-six. While sequestered
away in a cabin by the lake, meeting Austin Hawk, suffering
from severe burns during a firestorm now recovering at a
nearby cabin, could change both their lives by teaching
them to live again.
Dusti Delaney has visions of winning the local Texas
Hold 'em poker tournament to receive the sponsorship and
funds to enter the big tournament in Vegas. Another
visiting Harmony resident is willing to teach Dusti how to
win in the hopes she will then be able to pay for her
sister Abby's remaining college and dream of becoming a
nurse. Kieran O'Toole, the "Scot", has spent his
summers as a child in Harmony, his childhood home, but
lives mostly in New York, traveling all over the world with
no special place to call "home".
Reagan Truman is in charge of the local tournament and
festivities surrounding the event. Always and forever
being in love with Noah McAllen, a man following the Rodeo
circuit, she turns from him after learning some devastating
news that confirms his unfaithfulness. Noah has decisions
to make between the woman he desperately loves and the
exciting life he thinks he wants.
Three men and three women who have each faced sadness
and loss strive to find renewal in lifelong and permanent
happiness which everyone desires. Jodi Thomas has again
taken my breath away with a most beautiful and nostalgic
tale of the fight for that one true love. I am a long time
fan. Her depiction of a close knit community and the
tangled lives of the residents bring warmth to the heart.
I am never, never disappointed with the tales from this
author which can always take me away to a place far from
the humdrum reality of life. I dare the reader to put
BETTING THE RAINBOW down without finishing it in one
session.
