"Say You Love Me is the kind of series romance that’s increasingly rare: a well-written, character-rich and deeply emotional read. ...In many ways, it’s the best series book I’ve read all year. From the very first page, the author’s writing is strong and evocative... This is a poignant story full of genuine feeling. Anyone hungry for a good story, series or otherwise, should check out this complex and involving tale."

"This was a page-turner and I couldn’t wait to find out how things would be resolved between all parties... Finding You is a fast-paced story with a romance that doesn’t initially seem viable. But it’s well done and comes to its logical conclusion.... Highly recommended."

"First Love, Second Chance tells a story rich in internal and external conflict. Katie’s difficult situation and the remnants of an old love affair, though the main themes, are only two of the several plotlines. Ms. Novak also explores family dynamics, friendships and other relationships to further intrigue her readers."

"Finding You is the latest story in Brenda Novak’s Dundee, Idaho series. The emotional intensity of this story is startling as the reader gets to know not only Reenie and her family, but Liz and her family. The parallel plots are both strong... Once again, Ms. Novak has created a very emotionally draining story, but one that leaves you with a warm feeling at its conclusion."

"Mike Hill finally gets his own story, and wow, what a story. Ms. Novak cleverly weaves several different plots in this tale while keeping the emotional tension very high. The love between Mike and Lucky seems destined to fail, but yet, Ms. Novak manages to keep the denouement very believable and very romantic. [...] Lucky and Mike’s story will have you enthralled from the first page to the very last, with plenty of surprising twists thrown in to make for an amazing story."

"Just when you think the last book of the Dundee series was the best and there couldn’t be another one done better, Brenda Novak goes and proves you wrong. She writes an emotionally packed story about characters and their situations you find yourself caring about. It’s hard not to root for them or to become a back seat driver in an effort to help them along. Brenda Novak has the gift of involving the reader in her story on all levels. Each book feels richer, more full-bodied."
