Sherryl Wood's fifth volume in the Sweet Magnolia series, "Home in Carolina" jumps forward three or four years from this previous volume. This time the focus is on Ty and Annie, the children of Maddie and Dana Sue, two of the Sweet Magnolias. Friends since childhood then gradually moving into a romantic relationship, Ty and Annie had seemed destined for "happily ever after." Then Ty's career as a star picture for the Atlanta Braves and the temptation of ever-present young, beautiful, and sexually enticing female groupies pulled the couple apart. When one young woman became pregnant with Ty's child, Annie shut the door on the relationship forever. Now Ty is back in Serenity needing re-hab for a career-threatening shoulder and with his three year old son, abandoned by his mother in infantry, in tow. As in the case of past romantic relationships in this series, everything seems back and forth and up and down for chapter after chapter. At least this volume provides satisfying stabilization of the relationship, not like poor Tom and Jeanette's which was left a little unclear at the end of the last volume. They receive scant mention in this volume beyond a vague statement acknowledging the couple's marriage. One of the side storylines in this volume centers on Helen's relationship with her mother whose broken hip results in her residing with Helen and Erik during her recovery, thus providing a challenge for mother and daughter relationships. In addition, Wood's sets up the next generation of Sweet Magnolias as Annie's childhood friends, Sarah and Raynelle, coming back into the picture each dealing with problems and issues that call for the love and support that only long-time friends can provide. As always, even with some frustrations, Wood's tales of Serenity and the Sweet Magnolias make for enjoyable reading.

Home in Carolina The Sweet Magnolias Sherryl Woods 9780778327561 Books Reviews

I'm happy to see this series continuing to the next generation. I feel like I know them all and am anxious to know their story. Sometimes I need to read about familiar characters and places and Serenity and her inhabitants has been the right choice for me.
This is Annie and Ty's story. They have a long history. He was beside her when she fought her anorexia. I know it's a life time fight. But when he leaves for the big leagues he ends up getting someone else pregnant. Now three years later he is back in town. Will he be able to win her back? What about the baby momma? Again there are side stories.
I've been following the Sweet Magnolia's series since the first book (Stealing Home). By following the series it makes you more sympathetic to the characters in this book, Annie and Ty. I think if you've also followed the Sweet Magnolia's series, you'll enjoy reading the book and finding out what's up with characters you've met in prior books. I believe this book is the best one out of the series so far. I read it in a day and a half!

Some reviewers did not like the book just because of the cheating involved. While I would not have made the decision Annie did, to stay with Ty, I enjoy reading Woods' book anyway. Other reviewers also complained that they thought Annie was an annoying character. I have a BA in psychology. I personally feel Woods accurately portrays Annie's character of a young woman with an eating disorder. Woods addresses many issues that women, and the society at large, face today. This includes cheating. Perhaps if cheating and eating disorders are not your cup of tea, you should not read Woods's books. However, if you keep an open mind, you'll enjoy the book as I have.
I'm a huge Sherryl Woods fan. I've read everything she's written, so it pains me to give the latest book in the Sweet Magnolia series only three stars. I was so waiting for Ty and Annie's story and came away from it feeling unsatisfied. Maybe it's because I felt there were too many questions unanswered. I appreciate the fact this book was about making mistakes, learning to trust again, and following your heart but I just feel there were too many loose ends. I also felt that instead of this being Ty and Annie's story, there were too many other people involved. All of the other stories has supporting characters but to me Ty and Annie just kind of got lost in the parade of other people in this book. I was happy to revisit the characters from books past and see how they were doing but instead of being in the background they were all front and center and it took so much away from what was going on between Annie and Ty. Will this stop me from buying Sherryl's next book, absolutely not but this won't be one that I read over and over again like I have with many of her other novels.
I read this book as part of the series of course, but also to see what all the low scores were about from other readers... one critic said Ty cheated many times, another critic said that there was too much cheating, yet another one said that she hated weak women who stuck with these cheating men! I must say I had to laugh.

Sheryll Woods has a formula, most of her books at least in this series are written in the same way, which is ok because you want to see how they get out of the situation and finally get the girl. Ty had one weak moment which brought a little boy into the book and a lot of heartache, for himself and the females involved.

The women are not weak at all, one is an attorney, one runs a spa, one owns a top notch restaurant, and the second generation female is a physical therapist. So think on that......these are not a bunch of characters who are not working and being involved in the community, they are living very complicated lives just as we are.

I think this book was good as a part of a continuing group of books involving one tiny town in South Carolina. If you enjoy books with kooky but fun characters, give this series a go...........but start at the first one and not the last one like i did! Sheryll is good at what she does which is tell at tale.
