Broken Toys

                     Between a rock and a harder place

In Broken Toys, debut author Glenda Thompson introduces Texas Ranger Noah Morgan, a young man who finally has his life together—a great job and the girl of his dreams. When he least expects it, a routine investigation uncovers a band of human traffickers blasting Noah with a vengeance and threatens the new life he’s worked so hard to create.

Our Review:  when we weren’t laughing out loud, we were weeping for this brave young man who yanked himself out of a life of abuse and fraud, turned that life around and made something of himself—only to have that past rise up out of the ashes and threaten to expose him. Author Thompson has many talents, one of which is creating well-drawn, layered characters—complete with warts—who tug at the heart strings and make you want to cheer out loud. Another talent is the ability to write snappy, realistic dialogue and complicated family systems.

On a scale of 1-5, Broken Toys deserves an 8.
