Hello, friends! It’s Friday again and do I have a good book today. Delilah by Fay Lamb is the fourth in the Ties that Bind series. Every book has been good but I especially wanted to see how Lamb would approach this eclectic character. She didn’t disappoint. The plot is good and the characters well-defined. And there’s a great scene with an alligator. 🙂 Delilah is a great novel to end the series. I enjoyed this book and know you’ll love it as much as I did..

Delilah

Newly elected judge, John M. Turner, tries his best to call an end to his war with former Circuit Judge Delilah James, the woman he bested in the election by only a narrow margin. Delilah refuses to accept his flag of surrender. Worse yet, a vengeful assistant state attorney, the other candidate whose entry in the race actually handed the win to John, is seeking to have them both removed from the Florida Bar, and the game Delilah has forced upon him has given their enemy ammunition for his disbarment. 

Delilah likes the give and take she shares with John. What fun is there in surrender? She wants to make amends but makes a mess of every attempt. Added to her foibles, life has become complicated: John’s teenage sister hates her, and Libby Carter has been arrested for battery on a police officer and has embroiled Delilah in the plight of the homeless. Her past has returned to haunt her, and if that’s not enough, she’s deep into the one experience in life she never thought would happen to her. She’s fallen in love.
