While I thought that the alternating POV was a smart way to update readers on what has been happening with the character since the last book, I also felt that they were often convoluted and detracted from the main plotline. Furthermore, I didn't particularly feel that the events that transpired in this book were highly original or engaging. It is a good thing that I am highly invested in these characters, otherwise I believe the story would have dimmed in that regard.
Lane's humor is sprinkled throughout the story, no doubt leaving smiles on reader's faces. She has a knack for imbibing her characters with quirky characteristics that make them feel very genuine. This bunch of characters has really managed to create a sense of unity within themselves. They fight, they love and they really do become a family in every sense of the word. Some events were predictable, others were shocking. But readers stick with them because of that bond forged since the very first book in the series.
Though not my favorite of the series, FOREVER PROMISED still offers the very best of Amy Lane. It combines quirky humor and a heap full of heart into the conclusion of the series.
Book Summary
Crick has been home from Iraq for five years, Jeff and Collin are finally married, and Shane and Mikhail are quietly making lives better for the dispossessed teenagers who come their way. Everything is right in Deacon's world, but nothing ever stays the same.
When Deacon's best friends, Jon and Amy, answer the call of an opportunity in Washington, DC, Deacon figures that's life. You love people, and they leave you, and you survive. Even Benny, Crick's little sister, is close to grown and ready to start her own future. But Benny loves Deacon, and she owes him-she may move beyond The Pulpit and Levee Oaks one day, but not without leaving something of herself behind. And so she offers Deacon and Crick an amazing gift... and a terrifying decision.
Benny's offer forces Deacon and Crick to dredge up every past mistake and offer of redemption. And not just the two of them-everybody is forced to examine the chances they've been given and the promises they've made. In a real family, a child is a promise, and to the men and women of Promise Rock, keeping that promise will change their lives forever.
