First, let me say that I have really enjoyed this whole series; I was so disappointed when it ended. I felt I knew the ins-and-outs of this remarkable family on a very personal level. I also liked the way the author continued to use main and secondary characters from previous books in this series they continued to work and grow.
One of my favorite aspects of this series is the character of the main male (in each story); none of them are daunted by Jay Macs wealth or strong opinions. Jay Mac could glare at each man all he wanted; the men would just glare back!
After the first two Dennehy sisters, Maggie is a real change; shes contemplative and a private person in the middle of a boisterous, extroverted family.
However, I had a problem with this particular book. Connors old girlfriend and Connors fathers current wife, Mrs. Beryl Holiday she didnt make sense. First, shes chasing Connor; then she insists that she and her husband visit Connor at his home. She corners Connor whenever possible and gropes him.
******SPOILER****** Suddenly, she has a change of heart, makes peace with Maggie (she says Maggie is the only one to understand her!) and goes home. Her actions and behavior worked to keep everyone in the Holiday family off-balance but didnt make sense to me. Beryl has been shown to be a conniver and a user of other people but suddenly she loves her husband and returns something that has been a bone of contention between Connor and Maggie.
Because this series is so strong otherwise, I decided to ignore the issue of Beryl. A great story otherwise!
