Review:

"Betting the Rainbow" by Jodi Thomas was the seventh in this author series...Harmony was of three couples who will hopefully find their way to the happily

ever afters. You many want to read the other series before this one, however this read can be read as a stand alone. The author does a good job with the characters of Harmony, Texas and her novels bringing out the romance along with the humor. Truly, Ronny Logan, Reagan Truman and the Delaney sister, Dusti and Abby will bring out the 'focus of the interweaving stories of healing, forgiveness, and taking some big chances that have been delayed in fulfilling their dreams.' "Betting the Rainbow" was one good well written read that was a page turner that this author has created characters that will have some of it all...'flaws, strengths, triumphs and struggles.' Be ready for a beautiful rainbow of colors to this Harmony town that will give the reader humor, romance and second chances.

By the third chapter, I was thoroughly confused. I didn't realize this book was about multiple characters, rather than focusing in on 1 or 2. At that point, all I could think was, "Wow, this isn't a very long book, for as many characters as the author is introducing." While the book continued to

change to different character storylines at almost every chapter, it did smooth out a bit when the number of main characters stopped at 6, and the title of the book was explained about 2/3rds of the way through. The book was good, but not of the caliber Ms. Thomas usually writes.
