Excellent dive into Neely Kate's past

I love this book series! This installment was a bit difficult to read as there are many tough passages to go through. There are a few triggers for people with similar backgrounds as Neely Kate. The book itself was great and helped us understand what Neely Kate really went through growing up in an Abusive home with her mother and what happened to her before Rose met her. Definitely worth the read! I look forward to reading more!

Neely-Kate is Awesome

I love NK! Her story was shocking and disturbing but it made you admire her spunk even more. We love you NK! I hope you and Jed work out.

I love NK

What a great entree into what makes her tick. It really helps to know a character.

Confronting the past to embrace the future

Neely Kate has been an important secondary character in the Rose Gardner books and I am so glad to get an entire book from her perspective. And whew, this book did not disappoint. Neely Kate is portrayed as real, relatable person who has flaws, but is really just trying to do her best as messy human. Neely Kate has not had an easy life. Raised by a selfish, drug addicted single mom until she was 12 when she was abandoned to live with the grandmother she had never met. She recently miscarried her twins and afterwards she learned that her husband, who she thought was dead, was a criminal and ran off with another woman. As a result of her recently discovered crazy half-sister’s threats, Neely Kate is traveling back to her past and digging up all her pain and skeletons along the way and Jed, her quasi-friend and protector, is along for the ride. The book was well written and included witty dialogue, three dimensional characters, and an engaging storyline with sweet moments, exciting action, danger, family drama, painful pasts, mystery, plot twists, imperfect characters, missteps, and all the big feels. I am looking forward to reading what happens next in Neely Kate’s life. While this book can be read without reading the previous series, I am glad I had a deeper back story to Neely Kate and some of the events from reading the previous series. 4.5 stars.

Shannon McManus once again did a phenomenal job narrating the story and characters into life with enough change of inflection, tone and cadence to voice multiple characters quite convincingly.

A must if you’re reading the Rose Gardner series.

I loved this book. I didn’t think I would and read it because I am that kind of reader that has to read things in order, and it was worth the credit! It was informative and I so enjoyed learning about Neely Kate and her life. It’s worth it! Very sweet love story too.

more neely kate!

I was so glad to finally see into neely kates live. I think she and jed work well together.

Two similar to other Series

For me the story was just a little lacking I guess I’ll say… This is the third book series that I’ve read and it’s all the same characters, I guess I prefer the mystery type of story in Rosegarden or mysteries… This was more I guess drama and romantic… Good story but just a little doll for me
