Only His, by Susan Mallery is the last book in a series of books that revolve around the Hendrix Triplets. The story of the three girls concludes with the love story of Nevada Hendrix and her long-lost first love, Tucker. While I have loved getting to know these ladies and think that the town of Fool's Gold would be an intriguing, yet man-less, place to live, I was a bit disappointed in this last book. It was just really predictable. I sensed from the beginning that Tucker, a man who swore he would never be tied down to one place with one woman, would end up relocating and marrying Nevada (sorry that I ruined this one for you all out there, but seriously, you would've seen it coming, too). I did not predict the triple wedding ceremony, nor the very quick woman to woman kiss, but otherwise I was right on the money.
Now, does all of this mean that I would not recommend the book to someone. Absolutely not. Reading this book after reading the other two was essential in getting closure to the story as a whole. And, they were good, light reads. I am not sure, however, that the entire story of Fool's Gold is over, though. We met Charlie (a girl) and Heidi and Annabelle in the middle of this book and it makes me wonder if these three ladies aren't going to get their own stories at some point.
Let the record also show that after reading this book that I have a new appreciation for my garden tub and it's many uses. Read Only His to find out exactly what I mean!
