"Kentucky Groom is a warm, emotionally moving contemporary romance. . . . Filled with heartbreak and joy, diverse and complex characters, plot twists, romance and two vulnerable people looking for love, this story will keep the reader captivated as the plot unfolds.

Jan Scarbrough's "characters are dynamic yet expressive. They are vulnerable but sensitive. The chemistry is explosive between the two main characters. The way this couple reconciled was poignant. The down-to-earth actions of all the characters made this fast-paced book a page turner. I loved this offering from Scarbrough. Each book I read is my favorite! I highly recommend this book to everyone." Reviewer Brenda Talley, The Romance Studio


“Jan Scarbrough has quickly become a favorite author to me.” Reviewer Brenda Talley, The Romance Studio

A Groovy Christmas is a heartwarming story of Kathleen and Grant, former teenage sweethearts who are reunited during Christmas in their hometown of Legend, Tennessee. Jan surprised me by tackling a very tough subject. The story takes place during the time when young men were drafted into the Viet Nam war. Grant’s struggle between free will and duty to home and country was so convincing, it made me misty-eyed. Lots of personal growth in this story for both Grant and Kathleen, whose love for each other saves them both. For me, who came of age during the 60’s, this was a pleasant stroll down memory lane. Jan paints such a realistic picture of the era, I was there. Well done, Jan!"
—Romance author Devon Matthews

“Once again, Jan Scarbrough has worked her magic. This third book in her Kentucky series (or Bluegrass Reunion series) is another wonderful example of her writing skills. She transports her readers into the middle of the American Saddlebred arena and makes us feel as if we are, indeed, present during the activities of showing horses. It is obvious she knows of which she writes. Her methods capture our imagination and insure our personal involvement in her books.” Reviewer: Brenda Talley, The Romance Studio

Kentucky Woman, book two in the Bluegrass Reunion series, is a beautifully written contemporary, capturing the struggles of a single mother wonderfully. Jan Scarbrough created such wonderful characters. I related to Alex on many levels, warming to her character from the beginning. Both the hero and the heroine are family oriented and goal driven with a strong sense of duty. The fears of rejection and hurt they face and their compassionate nature is touching. I can’t wait for book three in this wonderful series.” Reviewer: Pamela Denise, Romance Junkies

"I thought Kentucky Woman wonderfully portrays the struggles of a single parent in a realist fashion that many can relate to." Reviewed by Nikita Steele, Joyfully Reviewed

Kentucky Cowboy “is an absolutely wonderful book. I always loved the idea of reunions of lost loves. Judd and Mandy are two hard headed people but I would expect this with all they had to go through in their lives. You just want them to be happy. This is the first book that I have read of Jan’s and to me it’s like a fresh of breathe air. This is the first in the series of the Bluegrass Reunion series. I am looking forward to reading the second in the series.” Reviewer: Kim G., Enchanting Reviews

"Readers, you can’t go wrong with Kentucky Cowboy!" Reviewed by Nikita Steele, Joyfully Reviewed
