I loved it!!!!!

I loved the Devaney series. I couldn't wait for each one to come out and I read them over and over again...Sherryl Woods is a great story teller.

Good reading

You really can't go wrong with a Sherryl Woods book. The last book in the Devaneys series, Daniel deals with mistakes made in the past with his old love, a runaway who won't explain why she ran and his parents reasoning for abandoning his brothers. I have to admit I did not like the story behind the abandonment. After it was explained I felt that the parents love for each other was more important than their children. But overall a very good read!

Emotionally satisfying. Works surprisingly well.

Years before, Daniel Devaney had broken Molly Creighton's heart when he told her that he wouldn't be their baby's father. She has blamed him for her miscarriage ever since. But when a teen runaway comes into Molly's life, there is no way she can keep her ex-boyfriend out. He is responsible for the case and intends to bring the teen home unless he can find evidence of abuse. Author Sherryl Woods milks emotional intensity from the lost relationship between Daniel and Molly, Kendra's teen angst, and especially the mystery of Daniel's parents who abandoned Daniel's older brothers as children. DANIEL'S DESIRE shouldn't work. The core conflict between Molly and Daniel is too easily resolved, Kendra's problem is created only by both Kendra and her parents refusing to talk about something that should not have been a secret, and the explanation of the Delanay abandonment was, to me at least, worse than no explanation at all. Still, Woods manages to make the story hang together and keep the reader cheering for Molly and all of the Delaneys to get their acts together.

another sherryl special

as usual well written Sherryl Woods family series are always good. Check out her Halloran series and her last series The Adams and Delacourt series.
