I can say this book wasn't one of my favorites and I wouldn't have given it a chance if I wasn't in a book club. It was a easy read though and we did have a fun discussion with it.

I loved the development of the characters and the story. For the first time a flashback truly answered all the burning questions!! To steal from the author - Good Job, Sandra!

Rainwater is not a typical Sandra Brown book: neither romantic suspense nor a "romance" per se. It takes place in the depression. One of the characters has cancer, while another is a young autistic boy - just as a few doctors begin to recognize autism for what it is. Racial hatred is also an issue during a volatile time in the small town. Sounds depressing, but it isn't. Many, many topics for discussion.

This was a quick read and the end surprised me a little. It was sweet and a bit sad. Nice for the beach.

Great novel, Quick read.

Character development was brilliant...held one\\\'s attention from beginning to end. So out of character for Sandra Brown but a really wonderful change. It painted a very realistic picture of the horrors of the depressiion.....provoked tears and smiles.
