Just Pretending

by Kate Rooper and Leah Rooper

[Sam@WLABB]

Tyler was the poor kid with the dead mom. Eva was the teen queen. Both felt the pressure of all their responsibilities, but maybe together, they could have everything they wanted and needed.

• Pro: Tyler and Eva came from such different backgrounds, but surprisingly shared a lot of common ground. The Roopers did a great job drawing those parallels between the two, which I thought lent some credibility to the friendship and the romance that developed between them.

• Pro: These two tugged on my heartstrings. They just wanted to be seen beyond the labels they had been"assigned", because there was a lot more to both of them then met the eye. I was so happy they found each other, and could share all of themselves, not just the parts people wanted to see.

• Pro: There was this wonderful message of trusting in others and sharing one's burdens, which I liked a lot.

• Pro: Ty and Eva were super cute and swoony together. They could really talk to each other, and share their hopes and fears. They could also have fun with one another, and the happiness they enjoyed together was wonderful.

• Pro: As in the previous book, the Falcon family came through to support their own. I never tire of stories that feature family-we-picked-ourselves. These characters were sort of doubly lucky too, because they were blessed with great families and great found-families.

• Pro: This was the final book in the series, and I really grew to love the Falcon family. I was so pleased with the epilogue, because the Roopers gave all our Falcons great starts to their futures.

Overall: A wonderful ending for a series that was filled with friends, family, swoony romance, fun antics, and lots of love.
