Jessica is someone I can relate to, she is loyal, worries about how people think of her among other things, she waits until she is mature enough to make her relationship with William more serious...which I respect. She has amazing friends.
I'm glad that this series didn't drop the main characters to tell about the other characters, it tells the lives of all of them throughout the book. I love it. I have laughed and cried.
Adam and Lump finally get together and in the end are engaged. Jessica marries William in the end. Williams mother finally favors Jessica.
I love how I connected with this book as to I could actually feel what Jessica felt. When Gladis her landlady died, I literally balled.
Jessica went through some major hardships and emotional damages. But she finally was the one to be the hero in this book...all while being hilarious! You will have to read to actually get the details...I refuse to give spoilers in this review. I honestly have to say I'm sad that this series has ended...
5 stars!

The ending book of the Jessica Brodie series was very good. I really enjoyed it because it ended without making me wonder what happens next. This book makes you feel for the characters, which I really liked. It's not very often that I find a book series like this one, so I have to recommend it because it is one of my favorite book series. I've read the Jessica Brodie series twice because I enjoyed it so much.

LOVE IT!!!
Jessica’s and little Willie’s story was entertaining and hilarious. You just couldn’t help falling in love with them. This series was definitely a great find. Thank you Willow S. aka KF Breene for such an amazing series..

I love the ending however I did cried my eyes out when Gladys died but cheered when Jessica got everything in the will reading. This book was much faster than the other two books missing months at a time. Would love there to be another book to see where they all are in life.

Possibly the best of the three books. I really loved this series and this book. The characters were awesome. The ending seemed a little rushed to me but maybe that's just because I was enjoying it too much.

Great read.
I have really enjoyed reading this series, it's been fun, sad, romantic and sexy, a great mix. I loved how Jessica's story expanded to include Lump with updates on the other girls.

Satisfying end
Sad that the series is over, but glad for the satisfying end for all the characters.
A good, solid romance series, from start to finish.

For love and money
This is an amazing story with rags to riches along with a rich boyfriend. It takes all the different pieces from these people to form true love at last.

OMG was a great ending to a beautiful story. I just loved Jessica what hoot she was throughout this whole book. Thumbs up to Summer for such a great story.

I really enjoyed this entire series. I got the first book as a free download on Amazon and I was so hooked that I had to read the next two books of the series.
The first book, Back in the Saddle is quite slow, but not in a bad way. Although there was instant attraction, it took a long time for anything to actually happen between the two main characters, and only near the very end of the book do they even kiss. In the second and third books of the series (Hanging On and A Wild Ride) there is a lot more action in and out of the bedroom!
I see most of the negative reviews mention that Jessica was annoying, selfish and drank way too much. I actually really liked her character (although I agree she probably did drink too much!). I could totally relate to her sense of humor, and yes, she could be a bitch and very moody sometimes, but the truth is that is closer to reality than a character who is never in a bad mood. I just loved William. I am really hoping and praying that the author decides to do a companion novel from William's POV, because I would love to know what he is thinking a lot of the time. He is strong but still gentle and protective, he is loving and knows just how to handle Jessica's feisty personality.
I also loved the supporting characters. Adam was so sweet, even though he had his issues, and Lump was his perfect match. And we mustn't forget dear old Gladis who was just delightful.
It was a good series and I plan to read more books by this author.

This is the third book of Jessica Brodie Diaries. I must say K.F.Breene done it again. I could not go to sleep until i finished reading it.
This was an awesome reading. I laughed, cried, ran the gamut of emotion: fearful, sad, happy, amazed at what came of the girls mouths.
All characters had grown thru the series.
I took the first book because it was free, butt i read almost all books of K.F. Breene and she had not disappointed me yet. So i give it a try. I liked the first book but just for 3 stars, and then there was the second book, i was surprised blown away. But when i started reading the third book, i got blown away .
The book was so awesome, so much action, oh good so much sex, and a little drama too....a like it a lot..i vent to sleep early in the morning...hellll i was reading the hole night :)
I wont write about the book because i will spoil the joy of reading it, and i know that when i would start writing about it i couldn't stop telling all the god stuff :)
This series are MUST READ book from K.B.Brenne.

So enjoyed the last book, found myself laughing and crying. The story line continue to make me want to enjoy the journey with them. The story ended as it should and made you feel happy for Jessica and Lumps journey, William and Adam were lucky men and they made you feel proud there are gentlemen still left in the world.
Have to admit the cover version for the books were very different that what is pictured here.... not sure if I would have picked them from these cover shown but enjoyed the books and well worth the read even though there were some edit issue's that should have been caught....found myself laughing thru those as well.
First time reading this author, going to try some of her other books.

This is the final segment to this saga. It was a more enjoyable read then the last two. They all grew just a little. Jessica learned her worth. I so loved Gladis. Wisdom and love. That's her. I did miss the humor of Hanging On. Laughed constantly. This was more serious. Saw depths of William and Adam. Loved getting to know more about my guys. I missed a little of the group partying from Back in the Saddle and Hanging On, but I understand it was necessary for them all to grow a little. I felt the ending was somewhat abrupt, but oh well. I do recommend. One of my favorite authors is attached to this book, Breene. I didn't really see it. Enjoy.

An Awesome Read!
I absolutely loved reading A Wild Ride (Jessica Brodie #3), all about Jessica Brodie & William Davies who are boyfriend and girlfriend! The author wrote an incredible funny story, that is warm and loving, and the characters made the story come to life! This is a three book series and book one thru three will keep your attention from start to finish! Read this series because it will make you laugh, cry, sigh, shake your head and cum up a storm! Come fall in love with Jessica and all her girlfriends & William and his buddies!

The third, and last installment, was a bit sad, which almost made me rate it lower just because my heart broke lol. But, I suppose that is a sign of great writing! So 5 it is. It was definitely a great conclusion to a series and I think wrapped the story up nicely. I felt there was real resolution and it was a great spot to pull the plug as it were.
Again, really well written and a great flow all the way from Book 1 through Book 3. A series that is well worth the read!
