Putting the book down was not easy. I enjoyed every minute. <br> --<b>April Barnett</b></p><br><br><p>As with all of Mary Ellis' novels, <b><i>Midnight on the Mississippi</i></b> will keep you turning pages chapter after chapter. Detailed descriptions lend credence to the plot. Well-developed characters are totally believable. Nicki's wry sense of humor and down-home expressions make her as lovable as your best friend. If you enjoy suspense, romance, and a touch of humor, you won't be disappointed in Mary Ellis' new novel. <br> --<b>Susan Simpson, author</b></p><br><br><p>Author Mary Ellis continues to amaze me with her versatility--not only is she a master of the Amish genre, but also of historical romance, and now, with <b><i>Midnight on the Mississippi</i></b>, of romantic suspense. There were so many twists and turns in this book that I couldn't put it down and devoured the book in just three reading sessions. Her characterization is amazing and spot-on, and her portrayal of New Orleans and the bayou culture is so well-done that by the time I finished the book I wanted to be in New Orleans eating an beignet. Bravo, Ms. Ellis--please keep these great books coming! <br> --<b>Laurie Kingery, author</b></p><br><br><p>I had a hard time putting this book down to get anything done. The characters are imperfect but human. As in other books by Mary Ellis, you get to know the characters and their surroundings, as if you are an active bystander. This is because the author takes pains to learn about the area she uses as the background so even dialogue, music, and foods served are pitch-perfect. <br> --<b>Carrie Wolfgang</b></p><br><br><p>There's a lot going on, both in the current timeline and from Nicki's past, to keep the reader turning the pages with plenty of fun banter and toe-clenching romance. Read it! <br> --<b>Pegg Thomas, <i>thesheepishscribe.blogspot.com</i></b></p><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><P>Mary Ellis is the bestselling author of many books, including "A Widow's Hope, An Amish Family Reunion," and "Living in Harmony." She and her husband live in central Ohio, where they try to live a simpler style of life.
