Author: Shelly Crane
In the fourth and final installment, Maggie and Caleb must tie up all the loose ends of their lives and make a way to be together completely on their own. With everything that happened with Bish and Maggie's father, she's almost reluctant to move on and move out. And now she must figure out all of this...stuff...with Haddock. But of course, nothing can stay simple for the Jacobsons. Enemies who were thought to be dissolved have decided to not go down so easily. And old flames come calling for more than just Maggie. Caleb is torn between leading his family and personal wants. Maggie is torn between Caleb and being the leader of their people. But neither will let what they need most to be pushed to the wayside. They are determined to make it all work, design a plan toward destiny, and make everything right again for themselves and their family.
And then there's a wedding...
5 HEARTS!
WOW!!! I was really wondering how Crane was going to end the series, and she did it with a bang! **SPOILER**The wedding was great, the adventure was suspenseful, and their first **ahem** time… was so beautifully written. Perfect twists and turns in all four books. So sad that the series is over! But a big Bravo to Shelly! :)
(All the other points and notes are the same as the first book)
Characters: 15 points
The characters were all really great! Caleb was sweet as pie (and hot!!!), Maggie was as well, Kyle was a great asset to all of the books, and both families were a hoot! The relationship between everyone in the book felt so real because of the emotional writing that was done to perfection!
Names of characters: 4 points
Honestly, the only name I didn’t really care for was Maggie. Caleb wouldn’t have been my choice “sexy main character” name (I would have even liked Kyle better) either, but it wasn’t so bad. So I would have chosen different names for the main characters, although it didn’t distract me from liking the book, so only a 1 point deduction.
Writing/Depth: 30 points
All I can say is, “Go Shelly!” One of my top 2 writers of all time! She’s so great about keeping suspense going while giving you hints along the way to chew on, and the romantic scenes were written PERFECTLY. I loved the clean way she wrote them. All the emotionally filled scenes felt totally real and yet magically paranormal all at the same time. I could not put these books down!
PS: There is a Significance movie coming out in 2014! :D
TOTAL: 99 POINTS!
