Jubilee's Journey is book two in the Wyattsville
series.
Jubilee and Paul have to leave their childhood home since
both their
mother and their father have died. No one is allowed to
live in the house
unless they work in the mines. Since Paul promised his
father he would
NEVER work in the mines, he and Jubilee are leaving the
town in search
of their Aunt Anita who they don't even know. They arrive
in Wyattsville
and get seperated. Ethan Allen finds Jubilee sitting on a
bench looking
very scared and he can't help himself. He tries to get
her to leave the
bench. He finally gets her to go and meet his grandma
Olivia. Since
Ethan Allen and Grandma Olivia know a thing or two about
lost children,
they quickly become attached to the irresistible little
girl, while helping her
search for her brother. She really just wants to go back
to the bench and
wait for her big brother.
Paul told Jubilee to wait on the bench while he went
inside the grocery
store to check out a job. Hours later, he still hadn't
returned and that's when
Ethan came into the picture. I felt such heart break for
Jubilee. She
depends on her older brother, trusts him to take care of
them, and now he
is just gone. Jubilee is such a sweet girl. She is so
innocent yet so firm in
her love for her brother. Paul is such a mature young
man, and such a
good brother to Jubilee. When he entered that store, he
had no idea his
path would come together with Hurt McAdams and he would
find himself in
the wrong place at the wrong time and wouldn't be leaving
the way he went
in. Ethan and Jubilee become very close with Ethan
filling the role of big
brother and protector until her real brother returns.
Reading JUBILEE'S JOURNEY is like going home. I fell in
love with the
people of Wyattsville in the first book, Spare Change.
Ethan Allen will win
your heart over in the very first pages and now he has a
new friend,
Jubilee. The way he looks after her is so heart warming
and you can't help
but smile. Your heart will ache for all these kids have
to go through when
all they really want is for someone to care for them and
love them.
JUBILEE'S JOURNEY is a refreshingly sweet story that
will keep you
flipping the pages when you should be doing other things
but you can't
because you just have to know what happens next. I am
looking forward to
the upcoming third book in the series, Passing Through
Perfect and I am
sad to learn that the third one is slated to be the last.
The character Ethan
Allen has warmed my heart and it will be difficult to let
him go. Bette Lee
Crosby is a New Jersey girl just like me but you wouldn't
know it by the way
she writes. You would swear she was Southern born and
bred and that is
the sign of a very fantastic author.
