Smashwords book reviews by Eileen SammonsTidwell

  • If Wishes Were Horses on Jan. 19, 2011

    Fun and Witty, this is a story of achieving dreams and I loved it. Anything about horses catches my eye, and this one was a real treat.

    A unique look at the bond between a lady and a dog; this is one very good read.
