Representaion In Favor Of Books Words Spoken True
Adriane Darcy was practically raised in her father's newspaper offices. She can't imagine life without the clatter of the press and the push to be first to write the news that matters. Their Tribune is the leading paper in Louisville in 1855. Then Blake Garrett, a brash young editor from the North with a controversial new style of reporting, takes over failing competitor the Herald, and the battle for readers gets fierce.
When Adriane and Blake meet at a benefit tea, their surprising mutual attraction is hard to ignore. Still, Blake is the enemy, and Adriane is engaged to the son of a powerful businessman who holds the keys to the Tribune's future. Blake will stop at almost nothing to get the story—and the girl. Can he do both before it's too late?
Set against the volatile backdrop of political and civil unrest in 1850s Louisville, this exciting story of love and loyalty will hold readers in its grip until the very last page. Bestselling author Ann H. Gabhart once again delivers an enthralling and enduring tale for her loyal and ever-expanding fan base.

This book was boring and a chore to get through. The only aspects that interested me slightly were the historical elements, learning a little about newspapers, and the murder mystery. I didnt care about any of the characters or all the drama they went through. It was all stupid, boring, and unrealistic.Adriane was somewhat annoying all throughout the book. Shes described as having an outspoken and determined character early on, but all her thoughts and actions from then on are completelyYou can't go wrong with an Ann H. Gabhart book! This had a different (but good) feel to it than some of her other books, maybe because the story took place in a big city instead of a small town. A lot happened in this book- there was a murder mystery, political riots, a terribly determined fiancée, a heroic suitorand all of it came together to form a marvelous story. 4.5 stars!
First posted on my blog, Legacy of a Writer.Oh my goodness, what a beautiful historical fiction that will completely keep you on your toes! Ive read two of Ann Gabharts books in the past, and thought I knew the kind of fiction she writes. But she completely surprisedand delightedme with Words Spoken True. I wasnt expecting this historical to be so...suspenseful!! I stayed up late into the night, unable to stop reading.Adriane is a very strong heroine that I liked from the very first scenewhen
Words Spoken True by Ann Gabhart is different than the other books I've read from Hollyhill and Rosey Corner. It is more "romantic" and less spiritual. It is also (I'm guessing) an attempt at a mystery. But I wasn't surprised Stanley was the river slasher, just glad Adriane, Blake, and Beck made it to the end in one piece. Pun not intended :) Her bio doesn't say but Gabhart must have a background in newspapers. This is the second story she has written about a newspaper family. With my husband's
Typically with Christian romances, I read them because I want a bit of mindless reading that is escapist, but all the while I'm hating myself for reading such poorly written drivel and I decide I will not review the book on Goodreads because I'm too embarrassed to admit I read it. Further, as I try to become a novelist, as I read I constantly edit and recall bits of writing advice that the book is failing to live up to. This one was different. It is the first book in recent memory where I got so
Never were words spoken so true... *sigh* Is that not something that you just love, after reading a book that interruptions left you thirsting for more, where each page could not turn fast enough to bring what was next, but you wanted to take your time to soak it all in. Oh what a character I have found in Blake Garrett and while I was a fan of Adriane Darcy from page one, goodness what a great cast!As you can tell from the back cover book blurb, Adriane agrees to marry Stanley Coleman, a man
