*I received a complimentary copy of Enraptured for an honest review.Enraptured by Ginger Voight gave me a hangover to beat all book hangovers. It ripped out my heart, kicked it around of the floor, made out with it, then shoved back in my chest. I cried and cried because this heartbreaking story and it's endearing characters wormed their way into my heart. Ginger's story taps into all your emotions as you read. My brain ran the gamut of feelings-love, anger, heartache, regret, longing, and forgiveness. This is why I love Ginger Voight's writing. Her books are the very definition of why I read romance.Enraptured begins with Drew and Rachel as a married couple. But all is not all smooth sailing. They are still dealing with Jonathan's erratic and selfish mother Elise. Rachel's relationship with Alex and Jonathan is in shambles. And her marriage with Drew is a roller-coaster. But in true Rachel form, she does everything in her power to bring these fractured people together. She is the heart and soul of this family. Her compassion and depth of love for these people make Rachel one of absolute favorite female characters I've ever read. Her strength and selflessness is beautiful. I also love that Drew, Alex, And Jonathan's characters portray all the truths of people who are deeply damaged. They lash out at each other and these scenes are so hard to read. Ginger's understanding of the family dynamic is really great. There are no easy fixes for this family problems. Ginger honestly portrays the actions of this dysfunctional family with authenticity and understanding.I absolutely loved Enraptured! The Fullerton Family Saga is one of the best trilogies I've read in a long time. Ginger's comprehension of human behavior is impressive. And I love that Ginger injects common sense dialogue between these characters. I can't tell you how many times I said to myself, "preach it, Ginger!" And as much as the ending ripped out my heart, I think it was a fitting ending to this troubled, yet redeemed family. I'm so sad this series is over. I know I will be re-reading this many times. Do yourself a favor and buy this series and fall in love with Ginger's writing! I give Enraptured 5 out of 5 stars!Written by Dee McGee - Booze, Bookz, and Bad Boyz
