Great ending for the Charlston Triology.

Book 1. "The Back Up Plan"
Book 2. "Flirting With Disaster"
Book 3. "Waking Up In Charleston"

This book can be read alone with no problem but I would highly recommend reading the first two in this series before cracking this one open. All of the characters in this third novel are from the previous two stories and it makes it all the more enjoyable to read this one if you understand the secondary characters beforehand.

Waking Up in Charleston is the story of young widow Amanda O'Leary and her love for the town pastor, Caleb. Amanda is trying to put her life back together after loosing her husband, her home and all the "stuff" that matters most. She has been estranged from her dad, Big Max, since she married her late husband and has been fighting to survive without the very wealthy backing of him ever since.

Caleb is falling in love, has fallen in love, and wants to give Amanda and her three kids the world. But he thinks he can't give her EVERYTHING she wants so he fights his feelings and tries his best to stay away... We all know how THAT works out!!! In the meantime he is trying to befriend Big Max secretly, in hopes of bringing he and his daughter Amanda back together before its too late.

Sherryl Woods is an excellent writer. She sucks you in with her amazing talent for writing characters that become your friends and family. Strongly recommend this series for anyone who enjoys humor, love, friendship, romance and family in their stories.
