This was a great series to read. They were not fast paced, but steady. There was an ever so buildup to the end of the series. I was not disappointed. Although a couple of the twists at the end I was not expecting and it ended the way that it should have.I recommend it to anyone who is into the Civil War era.
Jo loved her family very much and she paid for that love dearly. She did what she thought was best and it also cost her a lot. She slowly regained what was lost. The author did not leave us hanging and wondering what happened after the war. It was nicely written and packaged. You can read them alone or one after the other because they all pick up where it was left off.
But with the end of each book you're wondering what will happen next. But she did have some evil members in her family who deserved what they got. You get a lot for what you paid for the books. Well written, thought out and you find yourself falling in love with the characters and caring for them greatly.

REVIEW
Not just a great love story, but Jerri Hines vividly illustrates the heartbreaking and devastating effects of the war for all involved. ~ Romantic Picks
Don't Miss Out on this Series: I NEVER write reviews! On this series I have too. I read 100's of books and have to say, this has been the most pleasant surprise. I urge everyone to buy this series. The characters are many and you will hate and love every one of them from one moment to the next. The History is not so much captured in the Civil War itself but the feeling is captured. You can FEEL how each of these characters felt, whether they were from North or South, slave, or freedmen. Thank you to the Author for such a wonderful experience that kept me on edge, and awake at all times of the night. It was well worth it. ~ Amazon Reviewer
As I read this epic story, it grew on me. The characters, the interactions, the estate of Magnolia Buffs. And the War. The overwhelming presence of the War… But overall, the collection is a consuming, passionate and compelling story, with imperfect, stubborn yet lovable people, living through a rollercoaster of times. Gripped in the love, betrayal, greed, and anguish that makes its mark on the reader. A worthy and highly enjoyable read... ~ Amazon Reviewer
I wept at the end of the book for more than one reason. I was ready for the end of the series but I still want more. I loved this book the most because it pointed out the failure of resolution. It also pointed out that the north held their own prejudices. The most meaningful quote for me was when Jo reflected, "...life is not about making an impact on the world as we know it, but on the lives of those you love. I wonder what impact I have made..." This series is definitely the best I have ever read regarding the War Between the States. It was gripping, romantic, suspenseful and historical. A story well-woven. START with book one. You must! It will be worth it. ~Amazon Reviewer
