I loved it!

Family reunions and weddings should bring joy, not chaos, but the latter is what the Butler sisters find in this book. Though Faith is happy in her romance, she knows her sister, Hope is miserable as she watches Jake Whitelaw, who she has loved for ages, prepare to marry her former teacher, Amanda. Faith also knows that neither Jake nor Amanda will be happy in this marriage; Amanda is in love with Jake's brother Rabb, and Jake does love Hope, but feels he is too old for her. Yet, both are so darned honorable, they would rather go through with something that they don't want rather than cause the other the shame of being jilted. So, Faith is determined to make sure the right couples match up before four lives are ruined and hearts broken.

Then, the Butler family gets a little surprise. The third daughter they gave up for adoption over twenty years ago finds her way home on the arm of Jake's cousin. Charity is naturally resentful to discover that she was given away, and the shock is a definite one for her family. It will take a lot of tears and rage for this family to unite, and there are still three weddings to make come together!

...Told so well that all of the subplots merge smoothly and none are left dangling or short changed, this realistic novel is heart warming and heart rending at the same time. Each sister, and Amanda makes for a believeable heroine, and all of the heroes are truly Texan, strong, sexy, and honorable to an almost painful degree. Fans will not be at all disappointed...

Fun reading on the beach

The triplets Charity, Hope and Faith unexpectedly meet face-to-face at someone's engagement party. There are thousands of adoptees out there who wished they too would run into their biological family at someone's party or in the grocery store. I am the adoptive mother of a now 34-year old daughter and had to smile, on reading this book, how nice fiction can be. Our daughter is now reunited with her two sisters, but the event took 29 years to become reality. Now I imagine Hope wanting eight children with Jake, both adopted and natural, and Jake agrees, that 'eight sounds just fine.' For Hope's sake, that number will remain fiction!

Good Sequel

I thought this book was good, but there were too many storylines. I would have liked this book to focus exclusively on Jake and Hope, but the secondary characters were interesting.There were a few things that really bugged me about this book, however. Jake and Amanda obviously disliked each other. They even kept asking each other things like, Do you think wer'e doing the right thing? or Do you still want to marry me? I mean they were constantly second guessing their relationship. You think they would realize that they would not have a great marraige. And then Amanda catches Jake cheating on her with Hope and he STILL insists on marrying her. It got kinda old. Another thing that really bothered me about this book was Charity and why she was given away. I mean COME ON. You don't just give a two year old away. I am the mother of a two year old and I can tell you that no financial strain on this earth could posses me to do this. And then the way her family treats her when she confronts them. They act like she's an evil thing and they can't imagine why she would be so upset. Geez, I wonder? But besides from the problems the book had, I really did like it.

Another Great Hamk's Way Title

I recently purchased this novel from my favorite retail store and I love it I stayed up all night just to finish I could not put it down. This book has gotten a lot of mixed reviews but I personally liked it.

All the characters are great and I found myself Laughing Lot Loud a lot.

I recommend this and all the Hawk's Way books
