Alexandrea Weis Brings the Healing Touch!



Thank you Alex for sending me this novel.  Broken Wings has a different focus than her Nicole Beauvoir series which is animal rehabbing.

Product DetailsSynopsis: 

Pamela runs a wild life rehab center just outside of New Orleans.  Carol her friend of the family helps to run the business.  It is totally dependent on donations and goodwill of others.  Also the support of her ex-husband Bob.   A surprise helper shows up to work off his community service.  Daniel is vet from the Iraq war.  The rehab center becomes a place of healing for him.  Pamela has pushed men away since her ex has left.  Will Daniel get through Pamela’s line of defense?  Can he show her that she doesn’t need to be dependent on Bob?

My Thoughts:

Another great novel by Alexandrea Weis?    This story follows an animal rehabber and her work.   The story is sprinkled with facts about the work of the animal rehabber, and what it takes to run this kind of facility.  The wild animals that reside there.  Lastly most importantly the kind of love to take care of these animals.  You might be surprised by a visit of some characters you from her previous series Val Easterling and Lance Beauvoir.

I felt that the novel started a bit slowly but picked up the pace after fifty pages.  The story is told well.  I sometimes find myself impatient with wanting the characters to move faster than the pace of the story.  While I am impatient occasionally I find myself satisfied in the end. 

Rating:

4/5

Have you ever wondered how Writer’s Corner came to be?                                        A blogger friend recently asked why did you start your blog?   I once said that I would never blog or write.   I was in a job search at the time and it was not going anywhere.   So I decided that I would work on my writing.   I found a nonpaying writing position with chicklitclub.com .   I started Writer’s Corner initially to practice what I wrote for that site.      The next part of the journey was meeting some great ladies that some of you know well Samantha Janning at Chick Lit Plus , Melissa Amster and Amy Bromberg from ChickLit Central , Laura Kay from A Novel Review , Pia from So Many Books So LittleTime , and last but not least Liz and Lisa fro...

The Importance of Complex Characters By Jacqueline Friedland

Photo by Rebecca Weiss A couple of years ago, there was a debate in the literary world about “likeable” characters.   The question, essentially, boiled down to this: must a character be unpleasant, whether angry or aggressive, selfish, or all gloom-and-doom in order to be taken seriously as a literary character?   When the debate arose, the focus was primarily on female characters— if a female protagonist has too many redeemable qualities as a person, does this detract from her substance as a character in a story?   This query nagged at me and took on a new shape during my writing Trouble the Water , as I watched my two main protagonists undergo journeys of personal growth that left them both decidedly more pleasant than the people they were when the story began.   The question I needed to answer was whether depth and meaning are negated by personal recoveries? My own take, as a reader, is that if I am going to spend hours reading a novel, hanging out with cha...
