My Review
Wayward Son, the third book in The Jensen Family Series does not disappoint and was a most enjoyable read for me. This story continues where Father and Son, book 2 leaves off. Gavin, Paul’s son is the main protagonist in this book. Wayward Son is his story and just like his father Paul, Gavin is quite the character. You could say he is a chip off the old block. Gavin is however, different from his father in some ways. and that’s exactly what I enjoyed most about him. He’s not predictable. Gavin did inherit endearing qualities from his dad and as you read, you to will be pleased to see how his character develops.
You will find humor in this book. After all, Gavin is 18 years old. His college days make for funny and intense moments. Beautiful girls such as Angel and Kiera become part of his life but I won’t tell you too much about them because I am trying to keep this review spoiler free.
Novak, (Luke) is also another important character in this book. You may remember him. He is the best friend Gavin grew up with. He is the brother from another mother who has been an integral part of his life since he was born. His role, the voice of reason for Gavin was perfectly written. They are more like brothers than best friends.
All of the characters from The Jensen/Paloma family are back and that made this third book complete. I love being able to keep up with the characters from previous books.
Paul and his new bride Suzanne share a loving and passionate relationship in this book. Suzanne makes an understanding and outstanding step-mother for Gavin. She continues to be my favorite out of Paul’s women. She is a lovely woman who keeps it all together. And of course, Paul is….well…Paul, just more mature. Michelle keeps him true to his younger cheeky character from the previous books.
There are many reasons why I enjoyed Wayward Son so much. One is Michelle’s choice of cars for her characters. Well, what can I say? I like cars. I was taken back to my younger years with Gavin’s Supra. Additionally, Gavin’s personality and taste are unique. I did mention that he’s not predictable.
Gavin is a talented young man. His many talents and lifestyle make him the talk of his college, especially to Quinn, a character who immediately clashes with him. You’ll read all about his adventures and love this young man just as much as I do.
Of course, just like his father, Gavin loves women. So, prepare yourself and enjoy reading all about Paul’s son.
Thank you Michelle for writing about this family I love so much. Your unique characters along with a brilliant plot and writing hooked me from the start and I look forward to reading more. I am ready for book 4.
