**BOOK SYNOPSIS**
Emma Rosales is the heiress of the largest ranch in Texas—The Thorn. All the responsibilities of managing a million acres now fall into her fifth-generation hands. A task Emma could handle with her eyes closed…if The Thorn were any ordinary property.

The Thorn is home to many things. Clear, cloudless skies. Miles of desert scrub and craggy mountains. A quiet disrupted only by whispers of the wind. And an ancient web of secrets won’t let Emma out alive without a fight.

The Fifth Daughter of Thorn Ranch is a family saga as large as the state of Texas.

Into the first few chapters I knew that I was certainly enjoying and liking this book and then when I was a few more chapters in a realized that I loved the story. Well written story full of struggles and tribulations with just a right amount of romance. The characters were beautifully developed and I was moved by the story line. This is a book that I will soon be sharing with my teenage daughter.

This is a favorite of mine from back in the day. Basically, a girl is left on an island alone for a very long time. The way it ways written made me really feel for the girl-I remember this book as being the first I read that really played with the emotions. I bought a copy for my daughter, but since I thought it was cool she won't read it lol!

This is an absolutely amazing book. Melissa has a way with pulling in the reader and making them care about her characters. In this book, you following Junie as she tries to first understand why her 4 year old daughter is regressing back to toddler-hood and then she takes you on her journey of discovering hidden things from the past which impacts everyone's future. Several different story lines come together with a surprising ending.

Must See, Just Bring Your Tissues
Solid performances. Great father and daughter chemistry. A movie packed with comedy, and emotions. Illustrates raw truths and how to face your fears no matter how small or big. The title is fitting. It's funnier in Spanish, but the actors do a great job not to recuperate lost meanings in translation. Must see. Just be warned, it is a tear jerker. Bring your tissues.
