PRAISE FOR NOVELS BY
JOAN JOHNSTON
A STRANGER'S GAME
"...This is definitely the best in the Bitter Creek series and if you are a Johnston fan you won't be able to put it down. And if you're not yet a fan it will make you one—of this I am sure. The passionate relationship of Grace and Breed develops slowly throughout and leaves you hungry for more. The good cop- bad cop twists and turns will have you clenching your teeth in anger. What more can you ask for. Johnston delivers."
Sandra Wurman, Reviewer, www.freshfiction.com
THE RIVALS
"...Joan Johnston has penned a winner that will leave you gasping for more in her Bitter Creek series. Her richly laden plot filled with sex, lust, danger, betrayals and romance leave absolutely nothing to be desired. I recommend THE RIVALS to readers of romance everywhere. For when it comes to adversaries, Joan Johnston has once again proven that she has none."
Joann Ruffen, Reviewer, www.romancejunkies.com
THE PRICE
"Readers will find themselves turning the pages, if only for more glimpses of a modern cowboy as captivating in the courtroom as he is on his hog."
Publishers Weekly, March 2003
"This author's debut hardcover is a compelling story of treachery, greed, forgiveness and love combined with an intriguing look at the pharmaceutical industry and its complexities. It's an amazing story with enough twists and turns to keep you guessing until the last page. The Price is not just a'must read,' it's a 'reread.' "
Suzanne Tucker, Reviewer, Old Book Barn Gazette
"...Cover to cover, nail biting, edge of the seat reading!!! THE PRICE is Joan Johnston's best book to date. Filled with intrigue, sex, greed, and murder, THE PRICE is much more than standard romance fare. Joan Johnston gives readers a meaty tale, involving an extremely realistic "what if." What if a pharmaceutical company falsified their research? What if a promising new drug out on the market is killing children left and right? What if reality is being swept under the rug just for profit? Sound interesting? It is, I promise...It's only March, but I can tell you THE PRICE will be on my list of the ten best books of 2003. Joan Johnston's compelling, masterful storytelling makes this worth the hard cover price. THE PRICE is a truly memorable read"

SISTERS FOUND
"Ms. Johnston pens a wonderfully multi-layered, creative tale with expertly executed plot lines."
Debbie Richardson, Romantic Times Reviewer
THE LONER.
"Skillful storyteller Johnston makes what in lesser hands would be melodramatic compellingly realistic in this page turner, the third in the Bitter Creek series.".
Booklist--March 15, 2002-- Diana Tixier Herald Reviewer
"Johnston employs more plot twists than a soap opera, but she carefully controls each entanglement to craft a warm and charming homespun tale."
Publishers Weekly -- March 18, 2002
"This is an exciting book and you have to pay close attention as it moves fast. It's an excellent love story. You won't want to put it down because you just have to know what's going to happen next. I'd recommend you take a day for yourself and immerse yourself in this book."
Inez Smith, Reviewer, Old Book Barn Gazette --April
"It seems like I've been waiting on pins and needles for the sequel to Joan Johnston's THE COWBOY and THE TEXAN. Let me tell you that THE LONER is certain worth waiting for. I simply dvoured this book in practically one sitting. It is every bit as good as her previous novels about the wicked feud between the Texas Blackthornes and Creeds. . . .Ms. Johnston has done an awesome job of storytelling in her own incredible way that involves all of your emotions as she uses the power of love to heal a lifelong feud. ."
Suzanne Coleburn, The Belles and Beaux of Romance
"From page one, I was riveted. Having read all the previous books in the series, I cannot say if a newcomer could read it alone. They are all so good, each progressively better, I would not advise it. Passion sizzles between all the couples. Eve joins the ranks of the most classic villainesses, and is perhaps the most evil woman I have ever seen in literature. Heartbreaking choices are made, yet somehow, there is always the hope that it will all come together for a happy ending..."
Amanda Kilgore, Reviewer, www.romanceatitsbest.com
THE TEXAN
"Joan Johnston is in tip top form with this western series with the feuding Creeds and Blackthornes of Texas. It's about families, fighting and loving, and winning, and some knock your socks off sensational sexy men and women. Don't they say everything is bigger and better in Texas! Make sure to put THE COWBOY and THE TEXAN on your "must read" list now!"
Suzanne Coleburn, The Belles and Beaux of Romance

WHAT READERS SAY:
"Hi, I love reading The Cowboy. I bought it on my honeymoon, we were on a cruise. I couldn't put it down the day I got it . . ."
Shanna S.
"Thank you so much for writing books. I was in Florida earlier this year and found "The Cowboy" and took it with me to the beach--and I couldn't put it down. I have been to EVERY book store you can possibly imagine and have purchased EVERY book I get my hands on that you have written that is still in print. You catch my attention and keep it there and have given me renewed hope that romance is still alive..."
Alicia, Columbus, IN
"I loved THE COWBOY so much I can't wait to read the next book. I may have to read THE COWBOY again to get me ready for the next book. Can't wait to get it."
Trisha H.
"Joan, I just finished The Cowboy, WOW! It was awesome. I got lost in the first page and finished it feeling like I was right there. I grew up in Louisisana and have a great love of horses. Men in tight fitting jeans (wranglers) have a special place in my heart too!...I love your work so keep it up."
Sharon
