Drivel

This story is so wordy with several incomplete story plots introduced but not really completed. It seems there was a lot of repetitive thoughts.

Maggie's introspection took up the entire book.

Maggie was inside her head from beginning to end.

I love this author. She brings out the common things that are in a family that I was raised in. There is always something going on that needs to be addressed by the whole family. There is always one in the family that has all the solutions no matter the problem. I have read 14 of her books and I can't wait to get the next one. Her books are so real to family living. Keep going Annie!!!

Great Uplifting Story

I've been immersed in this family since the first Captive book and this one did not disappoint. I love reading about how the wheels rumors this continue to grow and evolve.

Love this family

I feel like I'm part of Maggie's family. I can't help sharing their lives through their love for each other, and for Maggie. Chelsea and Maggie love and need each other, through life's ups and downs, through sickness and health.

Maggie Encourages All

More interesting times for Maggie and family. This text was repetitive in more than the usual places. Each character's past reviewed multiple times rather than just as introduced. Heartfelt mother child conversions were touching.

Surprise !

This story brought me back to my childhood sitting with my five sisters telling Christmas stories of the old days.
Celebration of love, as Chelsea and Stephen marry plan their life together. In the Kindle, spirits of Oliver and Iris.

Sleighbells review

The author keeps the story moving. I enjoy reading about the continuing lives of the people with a few new ones thrown in. The setting allows me to imagine being there. I have read the previous ones and look forward to more.
