Another good book in the series. Lots of ongoing stories either wrapping up or getting more added to their story. I enjoyed the book.

No. 15 in the series
I’ve read all the Captiva Island books and enjoyed them. This one is packed with new stories about Maggie and her family but I did find it repetitive in places and just skimmed over the next page or two. And what happened to the half sister, Daniel’s love child? Not a single mention. An oversight, perhaps?
I can see a spin-off book all about grandma Sarah’s adventures in the Garrison Getaway - c’mon Annie - the silver influencer is worthy of at least one book.

Another great one
Captive Sisters was great. I feel like they are all a part of my family. A lot was going on and I do admit at times I was getting concerned. It truly is a wonderful series which should be read by all. I do love everyone in the family but Grandma Sarah is something else. It is great catching up with everyone's lives. Anxiously awaiting for book 16 which I hope will not be the last in the series.Thank you Annie Cabot you never disappoint

I love this series and can't wait for the next chapter. Everything that Maggie and her family goes through are so relatable. My granddaughter was in NICU for 6 months and had several operations. I understand what they all went through. A few story lines should be addressed more, but there is always the next book.

Wonderful Story!
I have enjoyed and loved the wonderful characters in these stories! Every time I finished a book I couldn't wait to continue the stories of the people and lives contained within! How does an author write so many stories of each caricature? Thank you so much for these books!!

Another great story from Captiva Island
I have read every one of this series and can’t wait to read Book 16. The story of a sweet family with trails and tribulations. Annie Cabot writes a good book.

This is a good series, however, This book spent too much time recapping details that have created and previously read in the series. I am hopeful the next book in the series is written better.
