Dark Secrets of the
Old Oak Tree
From Publisher's Weekly
"Wilson’s melodramatic novel of suspense chronicles the deadly impact of secrets and lies on the people of a small Southern town. . . . Wilson (Little Big Heart) balances an intricate plot with credible character development."
From Harriett Klausner
"No one will need a psychic to tell them Evie’s life in danger or an oracle to learn this is an exciting thriller for fans who relish the works of Mary Higgins Clark. . . . Filled with action and a great twist, fans will enjoy learning the Dark Secrets of the Old Oak Tree."
Flight to Freedom
"This book is captivating from the first shocking sentence. Wilson uses the first-person perspective to breathe life into the character of Montana. Her stories of abuse are so startlingly descriptive, the reader will forget this is a work of fiction. This is a beautifully written book on a very ugly subject."
~ 4 1/2 Stars Top Pick, Romantic Times, Barb Anderson
"A bold, brave, and unstinting look at the comprehensive complexities of abuse. With brutal honesty, sensitivity, and astute insight that offers relationship benefits to all men and women, D.J. Wilson creates a powerhouse novel. Flight to Freedom should be required reading."
~ Vicki Hinze, Ph.D.
"A compelling read of one woman's fight for survival."
~ Carla Cassidy, award-winning author, Paint It Back
"D.J. Wilson’s Flight to Freedom plumbs the depths of despair and suffering, but it is also a celebration of the resiliency of the human spirit and, more importantly, of the healing power of love."
~ RITA Award winner Gayle Wilson
Jail Bertie and the Peanut Ladies
"Two words that describe this book: wacky and wonderful. Bertie has charm and wit to spare, but it's her two octogenarian friends, Mavis and Millie, who steal the show with their crazy antics. Wilson is definitely an author to add to your must-read list."
~ Romantic Times Magazine
Bertie is at her delightful best as she tries to do what she believes is right for her town. Although the lighthearted story line amusingly focuses on small town living in rural Georgia where a debate over a traffic light can become extremely heated and lethal, Bertie owns the tale. Readers will appreciate Bertie's latest antics and escapades as she drives everyone around her to distraction in her latest romp (see BIG HAIR AND FLYING COWS).
~ Harriet Klausner
"This makes for enjoyable light reading. The characters are hilarious. We ranked it four hearts."
~ Heartland Reviews
"The cast of characters and the small town feel of the story will have readers kicking off their shoes and getting comfortable. These pages jiggle with a hearty helping of humor, as Bertie goes from one predicament to the next. The residents of this town are priceless, especially a pair of octogenarians who grab all the gusto they can get. Quips and quirky characters combine for some truly funny moments, which makes this novel a delight."
~ In the Library Reviews
Barking Goats & the Red Neck Mafia
"Before you make it through the first chapter you are laughing out loud… Wilson has a talent for taking an everyday situation and making it hilarious…the second in the series, with more to come, I for one, cannot wait."
~ Reviewed by Inez Daylong, Affaire de Coeur Magazine
"Dolores J. Wilson will make you laugh out loud. BARKING GOATS AND THE REDNECK MAFIA is knee slappingly funny and will brighten your day on many different levels. Lucielle Ball would have felt right at home in Sweet Meadow, Georgia and you will too. If you haven’t already read the first book in this world BIG HAIR AND FLYING COWS, grab both books and give yourself a treat, you’ll be glad you did."
~ Cat Cody, Romance Junkies Reviewer
Wilson's second book featuring zany garage owner Bertie Byrd Fortney is filled with charm and finds humor amid the events of everyday life. Readers will be drawn to Bertie, a strong, tenderhearted woman who often finds herself in the midst of difficult situations.
