I was so excited to finally read about the enigma that is Jeremy Evans, that I stayed up way past my bedtime, just so I wouldn't have to say goodnight to him and Cami.  I wanted to stay up all night and immerse myself in their struggles and love, because even knowing that Jeremy goes to prison for drugs, I knew there had to be more to his story than what his brothers figured.If you've read Tragic Love, Blind Love and Surviving Love, then you know that those books seemed to re-hash the same plot points over and over throughout all three.  But Redeemed Love, while it does start out during the same time period, is completely different.  As a reader, you FINALLY get to know what was going on in Jeremy's mind and what made him decide that dealing drugs is the only option he has.  Breaks my heart.As I was reading this book, I wanted to get to the end, so I could read his HEA with Cami...but at the same time, I never wanted their book to end, so I could always keep reading about the two of them finding their way.  Also, I was listening to my iPod and the song Santa Fe by Jon Bon Jovi (on the Blaze of Glory/Young Guns II soundtrack) came on that sums up Jeremy's life in stanza:"And I blame this world for making a good man evilIt's this world that can drive a good man madAnd it's this world that turns a killer into a heroWell I blame this world for making a good man bad"--Jon Bon JoviTruthfully, this entire song is the soundtrack of Jeremy's life.  He's a modern day outlaw with a heart of gold.M.S. Brannon is not necessarily known for her lack of typos or grammatical prowess (even using the appropriate spelling for the meaning of a word - in Blind Love, she used the word 'morn' instead of 'mourn' more than once and my personal favourite 'peaked' instead of 'piqued'), and in this book, all of those errors were lost on me.  I didn't notice any (except San Quinton instead of San Quentin) because the characters were so engrossing.When Jeremy finally tells his family why he made his decisions, I was crying like a baby.  If you don't read any of the other books in this series, read this one.  Jeremy will make you believe that no matter the time, space or distance, you can always go home again.  I cannot wait until the Family Epilogue!  I hope it's set years in the future - because those are the best kinds of epilogues.
