Review: An Amazing Conclusion
Rating: 5 out of 5

Ginger Voight has made a fan for life. The Fullerton Family Saga Trilogy is an immensely well written and insightful series about love, family, and redemption. It's a love story on a grand scale, but not in the way one may think. At the heart of each and every book of this series is the unconditional love children deserve and the steps those who love them take to ensure that that is exactly what happens.Going into the final book, I knew there would be highly emotional situations, but I never anticipated how gutted I would feel at the end. As I read through each book, I wouldn't say that I was on one team or the other; since the beginning, I've been Team Jonathan. All three adults involved in the triangle disappointed me in some way...whether it was giving in to temptation, walking away without fighting, or attempting to control every situation, Drew, Rachel, and Alex infuriated me at different points in the series. At one point, I did lean towards Alex, but then events occurred that made me rethink my choice. Like Rachel, I was torn between who was the better man for her, and at one point, I kind of wished she would just walk away from them both, but that was never a choice because of her love for Jonathan.Now that the series is over, I am 100% Team Fullerton. Both Drew and Alex redeem themselves, and Rachel's tenacity in keeping the entire Fullerton family together, no matter how dysfunctional they may all seem, is what heals the wounds of the past and allows for the discovery of who Drew really is.Ginger Voight is a truly talented writer who knows how to strip her characters bare to show exactly what they're made of. Readers can't help but be invested into what happens with the Fullertons because Ginger has invited us into their lives as honored guests, showing us what each and every one of them is willing to do to ensure the safety and care of the one person they all love unconditionally - Jonathan. This series is not an easy read because it brings out so many emotions...at times, readers will be angry, terrified, and even aghast, but the books and authors who can do that are the ones who understand the saying "lose yourself in a book." I'm so glad Ginger Voight introduced me to the Fullerton clan. I just wish I didn't have to say goodbye.Complimentary copy provided by author/publisher for an honest review.5 poison apples (The Fairest of All Book Reviews)
