Claim

Although I found this a very good read, I found I was lacking in the background of many of the characters. With "Claim" being Book #3 in The Homeward Trilogy, I'm sure there's a great deal I've missed.

I did enjoy the writing style of the author. She certainly has a way with presenting the story and holding one's attention. I also found the story line to be very interesting and very exciting in places. The characters felt believable and quite real, but I feel I can't do this book justice without reading the first two. I know it has been said by others that this can be read as a stand-alone, but I feel like I've just missed quite a bit and don't quite agree. This is one book that I feel needs the others to really do it justice. I am putting the first two on my 2-purchase list. I really don't want to miss this trilogy - "Claim" certainly has piqued my interest in the whole series.

If you would like to read the series in order, Book #1 is "Breathe" and Book #2 is "Sing" (which I would highly recommend doing). ( )

Dominic (“Nic”) St. Claire is finally in Colorado, but he isn’t yet ready to see his sisters, and own up to the fact that he’s spent his entire inheritance. He’s offered a job working in a gold mine, but when he agrees to take it, he gets way more than he bargained for!

Another good book in this trilogy. I like the way how Ms. Bergren really has a way of pulling you right into the story and making you want to keep knowing what’s going to happen next! The story starts off with a bang, and then doesn’t let up ’til the end!

Rated: B+ ( )
