Great series
I read this series in a span of three days. I love the characters and how they overcame life's challenges. Of the three installments I liked Seth's and Juliet's story best. This book not only brought Seth's character full circle, but brought the series together as a whole. This book I give 5 poignant stars and the series as a whole 4 1/2.
Get your tissues ready for the beautifully written third book in the Forever Family series.
Dear Juliet is the emotionally charged third book in the Forever Family series by Trudy Stiles. I highly recommend you reading Dear Emily (Bk 1) and Dear Tabitha (Bk 2) first. It will give you a better understanding Seth Tyson's character.
Dear Juliet begins with the beginning of Seth Tyson and Juliet Oliver, introduced to each other as pen pals in elementary school. Slowly over time they form a strong friendship as they endure all the ups and downs of adolescence. And some of the downs are pretty harrowing. Seth's family situation is pretty tumultuous and Juliet is dealing with insecurities that come with being an adopted child. Trudy leads you through their drama with such poignancy, you know she has really agonized right along with her characters.
This series is my first foray into the whole adoption process. Trudy does a wonderful job of explaining what it's like to go this from all aspects: the adoptee, the adopting parents, and the birth parents. I really had no idea how emotional it is for families who finally have their families completed through adoption. Coupling this subject with a beautiful romance is truly original and I love that about Trudy's stories. I was a bit frustrated with Seth and Juliet's romantic relationship. I felt like I waited FOREVER for them to actually get together. I wanted to stop and shake them both, telling them to quit playing with my emotions and get together already! hahaha
Dear Juliet was a wonderful conclusion to the Forever Family series. I'm a little sad it's over, but I'm looking forward to what other beautiful stories Trudy Stiles has in store for her fans.
