There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later. Kindle Edition Verified Purchase. One of my all time favorites of author Sharon Sala. I loved Diamond and how she worked through her insecurities and became stronger and able to get what she wanted. It is a good read invoking all the emotions: Well worth reading the other book in the series Queen is also great. The last in the series Lucky was just okay but finished out the series and united the siblings so should also be read.
Mass Market Paperback Verified Purchase. Nice twist in the story, and lets you have a good day reading. I have loved Sharon Sala since her Kismet days. These early works are warm and satisfying. Diamond is about loving someone and the need to make sure that they have the best. Even if you lose. This is a gentle story. Not like her later books. I have read this story many times and I feel the same each time. It is just simple reading, reading to read type of book. It keeps you interested but certainly can feel like the story is dragging on a bit. And heck it isn't hard to figure out what's going to happen.
The characters are written pretty well.

Overall I liked it, but I will say I have not downloaded the other two in this series. Sharon Sala will not disappoint you with these series. With Diamond you will laught, cry and cheer up for Diamond and Jesse. Diamond,Queen, and Lucky are the gamblers daughters left with scars and walls but each finds her way to happiness in 3 great reads.
You'll hate to see any of them end. What can you say about a good Sharon Sala book but settle in, get ready and enjoy and you get to enjoy it three different ways! Triology - I'd read Queen first, than Diamond and last but not least lucky. I just wish she came out with one more that would take place afterwards. Loved it, the characters, story were fun, enjoyable laughs and depths -- and I just love revisiting each in each one!
The problem is you can't remember the author or the name of the book. Diamond was such a book for me. I knew the basic story but there was one scene towards the end of the book that I just couldn't get out of my head. Lucky is an aspiring country singer. She falls in love with a country superstar and he falls in love with her. He wants to help her obtain her Have you had a book that you read years ago, you didn't keep it but every now and then you think about something that happened in the book.

He wants to help her obtain her dream but his manager is a manipulative creep who resents Diamond's relationship and influence over his star client. As you can imagine things go to hell in a hurry. There are misunderstandings, though not so cliched that you want to yell at your book. But the scene that stuck with me takes place on the stage of the Grand Ole Opry. Our hero, Jesse, is determined to win Diamond back and the way he goes about was one of my favorite scenes in any romance I've read.
Lovely and romantic and tear inducing.
Obviously I found my book and it is the first of a trilogy, Queen and Lucky follow. They are good books too, especially Lucky, but it is Diamond that remains my favorite and I'm so happy that it was even better than I remembered.

Apr 01, Iami rated it really liked it. Gambler's Daughters, book 1 Characters: Jan 22, Natalie rated it it was amazing. Let me start by saying that I've read almost everything that Ms. I'm not sure how I missed this earlier series of hers, but I'm not disappointed. In fact, it's refreshing. If anyone is familiar with Ms. Sala's current books, there seems to be always a bad guy in the mix. Some villain or criminal after the heroine. In this series, it seems that's not quite the case. There are still villians, but not of the jailbird variety.
I repeat that it's refreshing, because whereas w Let me start by saying that I've read almost everything that Ms. I repeat that it's refreshing, because whereas we can guess what will happen to the criminal in her 21st century books, this series keeps you guessing as to the fate of the villain. With that being said, I enjoyed this first book of a three-book series. The time period is just before the internet and cell phones became popular. I was thinking as I read this book that I hope Ms Sala or whomever the powers that be will not try to update this series by revising it to include modern technology.
The whole series runs on the premis that the three sisters have separated and have no way of contacting each other since they sold the only home they knew. No email or cell phone was available to them, so it maintains the feel that the sisters will be hard-pressed to reunited in the future.
I, personally, love it. Some books can do with updating and still keep the way the novel was written. I haven't really talked about the novel itself in this review. I really won't because there's not much to say. The heroine meets the hero on a chance encounter as he's passing through her one-horse town. He hears her sing and offers her a chance of a lifetime.
The plot of the story is what every artist, whether drawing, painting, singing, writing or acting holds. Throw in a romance and a naughty character trying to keep them apart I found it great. The resolution is probably predictable, but who cares? I won't spoil it by giving details, but in my way of thinking, how Ms. Sala wraps up this book is appropriate.
She allowed the heroine to come in to her own in her own way and on her own grit and determination. Overall, I'm loving the series. I would certainly recommend this book and series to others.

I enjoyed this series quite a bit and it's stuck in my head as a favorite. Side stepping that slightly, the hero and heroine of this book recorded a song together and I've been passively looking for a reminiscent real life song since I read the book. I found it a couple of days ago and I think that the song evokes the same sort of good-natured, easy flowing feeling that the couple in the book did.
When they I enjoyed this series quite a bit and it's stuck in my head as a favorite. When they weren't embroiled in the obligatory romance-novel-misunderstanding fiasco.

Jul 20, Jen B rated it really liked it. This was one of those pleasant surprises that I wasn't expecting much from but really ended up enjoying. This was a Christmas stocking stuffer back when I was in college, and I ended up spending the day after Christmas in my pjs, curled up on the sofa with this book. I finished it in a day.

Yes, it's heavy on the cheese, and yes, it has quite a few romance novel cliches "she stared into those gorgeous eyes of his," etc. Aug 17, Sara rated it liked it Shelves: This is the story of Diamond, a small-town woman who hits it big when she's "discovered" by a Nashville star while singing at her father's grave. Unfortunately for her, the road to stardom is littered with pebbles and even though she and her star are in love, she's pretty sure that love doesn't conquer much of anything. Diamond I have loved Sharon Sala since her Kismet days. These early works are warm and satisfying. Diamond is about loving someone and the need to make sure that they have the best.
Even if you lose. This is a gentle story.

Not like her later books. I have read this story many times and I feel the same each time. Oct 04, Ann Marie rated it really liked it. This is the first in Sala's Gambler's Daughter series. Great characters and a nice theme around country western music. I loved Diamond Houston and Jesse Eagle. Dooly and Twila were wonderful saviors when Diamond was wronged.
