Cy Harden's family drove Meredith out of town, pregnant and in disgrace. But now she's back! Meredith plans to get revenge for the way the Harden's treated her when she was a young teen in trouble, but she hadn't counted on how her body would react to seeing Cy again.

A good read. Lots of story and good characters.

"True Colors" is filled with a lot of emotion. You read as Meredith Ashe grows from a naive girl to a strong women. Unfortunatley her strength is geared towards revenge on Cy Harden, the father of her child. She plans to punish him for the past by taking over his company.
Cy, who had no idea he had fathered a child, too late realizes how he had been manipulated by his mother into thinking that Meredith had betrayed him. And seeing her after all these years, Cy still has a need for her, but is it just a physical need or a need born of love?
Yet when everyones true color is out in the open would it be enough to save the love between Cy and Meredith?

I was looking for a light romantic read and was led astray by this book's summary into thinking it might suit my needs. However, by the time I was about 1/3 of the way through the book I could not continue it. My inability to read further had nothing to do with the Meredith's rather narrow emotional range or Cy Harden's inability to control his 'lust' or even Cy's mother's failure to decide whether or not she hoped Meredith had an abortion or gave Cy's child up for adoption. My growing aversion for the story was fueled by the author's inability to remember and maintain key essential points of the plot!

For Example: Meredith was initially run out of Billings, Montana by Cy's mother claiming that she had stolen money and had an affair with her accomplice in the crime. However, the author can't seem to make up her mind whether or not Cy ever found out that Meredith was really innocent. The story starts out with him saying he has found out, but later on he says he hasn't found out, but then a dozen pages later he again says he knew it from the start. Heaven forbid I had continued reading... he probably would have forgotten and remember another 1/2 dozen times.

The author also provides contradicting information in the story on whether or not Cy knows Meredith's real age - he doesn't at first but later he does. Meredith doesn't to know whether or not Cy was never committed to her or whether they were engaged. If this isn't enough to disuade you from reading then please be prepared for characters who have startling bouts of amnesia - Cy for example is forced to remind his mother several times that he has given Meredith a job as a waitress at his resturant (even AFTER the mother has dined there).
