All well ends well, Jan 12 2003
This review is from: Casey (Mass Market Paperback)
Romance maestro Lori Foster brings a most gratifying conclusion to her popular Buckhorn Brothers' series where Sawyer's son, Casey Hudson reunites with the reputed bad girl Emma Clark after a 8-year separation and finds himself in love with the stronger, resilient woman who had outgrown her adolescence and shame.
Readers will immediately identify with the awkward teenage Emma who escapes from her dysfunctional family and runs into the embrace of the reliable Casey, lying to her father that she is pregnant. She is ashamed but helpless especially when Casey's family offers her comforting solace. Harboring a crush for Casey but knowing that his bright future excludes her, she escapes alone to Chicago and finds herself a new life with the help of the affectionate Damon as a massage therapist. Her return to see her ill father 8 years later becomes a reunion and a revival of love between Casey and her.
Lori Foster glosses the Cinderella romance with a dose of emotions and gumption in the determined Emma and pumps warmth and kinship into the arteries of the Kentucky town with the gathering of Sawyer, Morgan, Gabe and Jordan and a glimpse of their bliss. Even the unlikely Ceily has found herself a love interest. Ms. Foster's sensual style as usual is a pleasure to watch and Casey is a delicious hero with the protective streak. What more can we ask for given the first-rate romance and sanctuary of family bliss except indulge in more?

This review is from: Casey (Mass Market Paperback)
A wonderful coming of age story that captures the reader from the start. Lori weaves another tale with interesting characters that the reader not only cares about, but identifies with as well.

I really thought this was a great ending to this series. My only complaint is that Casey's cousins were referred to, several times, as his nieces and nephews. Then other times they were correctly referred to as his cousins. This, however, did not affect the story and chemistry between Emma and Casey. I loved Emma, she was such a wounded teen who turned out very well.
