Heart of Texas (Donna Grant)

Largely writing paranormal, romance and suspense novels, the Texas based author Donna Grant is an American author with a lot to say, having reached a bestseller status over the years. A professional with a highly polished and focused manner in the manner in which she applies herself to her work, she definitely has a distinctive flair for the genres. With her own idiosyncratic style, she takes the format and works to move it in both new and exciting directions, allowing it almost leap off of the page for the reader. This has seen her readership expand exponentially over the years, with more and more discovering her working continually every day. It has also allowed her to say precisely what it is that she wants to say, in a straightforward manner that directly resonates with the reader on a personal level, regardless of where they come from. With a worldwide audience, her characters have a universal appeal, despite being mostly American, allowing them to transport the readers. Not only that, but she also manages to put forward a unique set of ideas, whether it be through her shorter stories, or her longer form novels. Combining both plot and character with skill, she allows them to both come together creating some unforgettable stories and experiences. One series that she has become extremely well known for over the years is her ‘Heart of Texas’ series of novels, which have been well received by scores of readers from across the world. Loosely related to one another, they are mostly stand-alone stories featuring romances and relationships with strong resilient men. This isn’t to say that there aren’t intersecting threads between the novels, with many characters and family members returning and featuring throughout the series, including many members of the Harper family. Mostly though, each novel focuses on a separate relationship set in the world of rural Texas, whilst featuring many contemporary references in its modern current period setting. The characters that have been created in the series by Donna Grant are also all extremely well defined and strong in how they are portrayed, standing out as fully three-dimensional personalities.
