"I'm not really sure why but this book was my least favorite of the O'Malley books. I think part of it was that I never fully embraced Jack. He is not as integral as some of the other siblings in the books previous to his. So we don't get a good glimpse of him until now. This is not a bad book he just isn't my favorite character. I still would highly recommend this book."

" Part of a series of books. Each can stand alone but it is a compelling story of kids in an orphanage that decided they wanted a family. Once they became of age they petitioned the court to change their last name and became the family they so missed. The books show the dedication and devotion to each other all families should aspire to have and be. "

" I liked the story in this one but it didn't concentrate on the one main character like the others had. It had a lot of the next sibling mixed in and I found that I didn't appreciate that. "

— Sandy, 1/19/2014 -
" The main character in this book was supposed to be Jack, but there was a lot of Rachel in the book too. Not that she isn't a good character, but she is the focus of the next book. It would have been nice to have more Jack. "

" Another great book in the series! I love Jack. He's so playful and his relationship with Cassie is very sweet. Rachel is in this book a lot, but the other O'Malleys weren't, as in prior books and I found myself missing them. Especially, Lisa and Quinn since that last book was their story. "
