To read my review in its entirety, please visit http://bookreviewsandmorebykathy.com/?p=569 ( ) Another in the southern roads trilogy. Kendall left for his military career, leaving girlfriend Amy behind. But she's so angry with him, she leaves town pregnant with Tony. Now 12 years later, Marcus gets her to come back to build a bridge. Tony runs away from Michigan - and comes face to face with his father. Kendall is angry, but all get over it & it works out in the end. This review is full of spoilers. Read at your own risk. I expected to love this book, especially since I like the first one and was intrigued by the past history of this couple. It started out well enough, but a few chapters in I started getting a bad feeling about where things were headed..and I was right to be wary. I can handle the secret baby plot device if it's done well, ie she had a good reason for keeping the kid a secret, something outside their control keeps them apart, she tells him as soon as possible, etc. Unfortunately this wasn't an example of how the secret baby plot works. It was a hot mess from beginning to end. I did love the parts of the story that focused on the town and their rebuilding efforts. I also loved the scenes between Kendall and his son. The way they got to know each other and rely on each other was wonderful - when the psycho claiming to be his mom didn't ruin it, that is. Because of that I'm going to give this a 1.5 out of 5. no reviews | add a review
