Product Description:
Kelsey Byden is still reeling from her husband's affair-and going through a divorce-when a letter arrives that shakes her to the core. It is from her mother, Naomi, whom Kelsey thought long dead. When she discovers the truth-that her mother is alive and has just been released from prison-Kelsey journeys to Naomi's horse farm, and the two start the fragile process of getting to know each other. It is there that she meets Gabe Slater, a handsome gambler who sets off a powerful reaction in her. But their newfound relationship will set in motion a shocking series of events that puts Naomi's future--and Kelsey and Gabe's very lives--at risk.

This is one special book! Not only has Ms Roberts written a beautiful romance, but what makes this book outstanding is the portrayal of a mother's love and the sacrifices she makes and has made for her daughter. While many, like myself, would have wanted to see the real villain punished for the many misdeeds at the end, the fact that this does not happen only gives the book more strength. Wonderful, Ms Roberts, and thank you for writing this beautiful book.

Kelsey Byden didn't quite know what she wanted to do with her life, but that was before her mother came back from the dead. Soon Kelsey is voluntarily moved from her high end Georgetown apartment and into the new world of Virigina horse farms and the racing elite to be with the mother she never knew -- a mother who spent ten years in prison for a crime she may or may not have been justified in committing. In Virginia Kelsey meets Gabe, a high rolling horse owner with just enough luck on his side to escape a horrible past. Then there's Kelsey's grandmother, who is not pleased with recent developments....
The story is entertaining, if not exactly logical in terms of the horse racing details. Kelsey certainly finds herself in the horse world, becoming a spokesperson and budding assistant trainer in the course of several short months. In short, it's a guilty pleasure. If the mother-daughter relationship won't hook readers at the beginning, the developing romance will. After all, it's horses and romance. What better combination is there?

Kelsey Byden thought she knew her life, but was devastated when she received a letter from the mother that she thought was dead. Naomi thought it best since she was in jail for murder, but now that she is out and found a life of her own, she wants to see her daughter. When Kelsey visits her mother at her horse farm, her life changes forever. It is there that she has to come to terms with Naomi, and meets her future in Gabe.
This was a well-written book with a lot of information about horses and horse racing. The interaction between Naomi and Kelsey was very intense, but I found the character Gabe lacking.

There's just nothing that I don't like about Nora Robert's writing. She's descriptive without being boring. She pulls you into her stories before you get past the very first page. Her plots grab you and her characters hold you.
True Betrayals is no exception. The idea of receiving a letter from someone you thought was dead intrigues me. Especially, if it's a parent. And from there the intricate interweaving of family, friend, and enemy relationships leads the reader into a story that you'll remember for a long time.
But, of course, the romance between Kelsey and Gabe was the glue that held the story together and kept me reading.

It arrived timely. I didn't listen to it as I gave it to my mother. She didn't complain so guess it was okay.
Thanks, Jean Baber
