I really disliked this book for several reasons. The writing is really detailed and maybe too realistic. When families get together they sometimes talk about boring, mundane things and I really don't want to read about them. Moore dedicates pages and pages to mundane things. Rob and Jade don't meet up again run until the middle of the book.
I liked the interactions between Rob and Jade enough to keep reading even though I don't buy that she didn't recognize him during their one night stand. I can see Rob not recognizing her since she looked very different from her teenage years (even though that was a stretch), but he hasn't changed much. And then Jade got really stupid and started acting like a bratty 14 year old again. He forgives her for going out with someone else. She then tries to hide the PI guy she hired by pushing Rob to break up with her? And FYI, childhood education degree and sex columns don't mix. How dumb can a girl still be? I wouldn't want her teaching my kids simply because she is a screw up.
Bad, slow, dull book. Wish I can have the time back I spent reading it.
It might have helped if I read the other two books first because I did have a hard time with keeping up with who is who. So if you are going to give this series a chance, read the other ones first.

Another wonderful story by Laura Moore. If you enjoyed the first two you'll love this one and you get to see all the characters from the first two books. Love how Jade has grown and what kind of person she has become. Awesome series!!

Book # 3 of the Rosewood trilogy is about the last sister Jade Radcliffe. She's finally reached maturity and just graduated from college to become a elementary school teacher. Really, Jade the punky, out of control , hates the world, a school teacher? ! That's right she's grown up but still has some of the same issues she always had. This book was a great ending to the series and if u haven't read the first two u don't know what your missing. I'm more of a historical and sci fi romance kind of girl but was glad to get the first novel and couldn't wait to finish the 3 book series. This book is definitely worth the money I paid for it.
