Nice quick read, I chose not to follow the series just because the story was a little too predictable for me.
Love and family come in a variety of sizes
It was a really good book with a happy ending.
Enjoyable read with likable characters.
Wonderful story with a happily ever after ending . Plenty of tear jeking sweetness in between. Really enjoyed this read.
This is a thought out story with great characters. I enjoyed reading this book and at one point I shed a tear. If you enjoy books about family relationships this is a must read
A little bit slow going.
Awesome!
A feel good story
I really liked it
great
Nice easy read, enjoyed it.
Loved it!
Sweet story. Great build to the “happily ever after” that I wanted for these characters.
Really enjoyed this book… I couldn’t put it down!
Cute book nothing to exciting about the book. I find that many of the free books are typical and all the same
Enjoy her books !
It was so easy to get caught up in the plight of Ryan (the nephew). I had heard of art therapy before but this was great actually getting a glimpse of how it works. Shannon kind of irritated me from time to time with her “enjoy it for what it is and them let it go”. Yikes. It was all In all a great story.
Great book. Was funny and sad at times but so glad when they became a family
I liked the storyline of this book but didn’t care for the sleazy details of their encounters, the book would be great without it – it’s really not needed.
