A Heart's Home (#06 in Journey Of The Heart Series)

I haven't enjoyed this series, partly because the beginning of each book has included what turned out to be a plot summary (i. e. detailing what happens at the end) rather than a book description (setting up characters and conflict to entice the reader to read). A Heart's Home managed not to include the spoilers (yay!), but still didn't deliver for me. \\r\\n\\r\\nBasically, my problems have been the same throughout the whole series. It's been driven by external conflict to the point it's crossed the line from drama to melodrama, and this final book was no exception. Emmie is now engaged to Isaac, although she still hasn't told him her Big Secret, and she's afraid jealous Jessica will tell him first . . . \\r\\n\\r\\nOverall, there was too much drama (melodrama?), too little character development and too many plot holes for me to consider this even okay. It's a shame-I like Colleen Coble's contemporary romantic suspense novels. But I've read all six books in this series and one or two of her other historical romances, and I have to say I'm not sold. Even discounting my preference for romantic suspense over regular romance, Coble's historical offerings simply aren't as good as her contemporary stories. \\r\\n\\r\\nThanks to Litfuse and NetGalley for providing a free ebook for review.
