I try to express only my most honest opinion in a spoiler-free way. If you feel anything in my review is a spoiler and is not already hidden in spoiler brackets please let me know. Thank you.

This is the 3rd book in the Casteel series. Which I find ironic since Heaven isn't even an actual Casteel, but anyways. It wasn't bad. There was a lot of unfaithfulness going around though, and incest. Which just makes the book kinda weird.

I think Heaven is kind of a selfish character. She's a lot like her father Tony. But she is also a lot like her Pa Luke. Someone she apparently hates so much. And she adjusted to her money and power a lot faster and easier than she seems to want to admit.

There is not much more to say. There wasn't a whole lot for romance in this book. But it is still good to see how Heaven's life progresses from the last one. I'll be starting the fourth one soon which I believe follows Heaven's daughter.

How I choose my rating:
1* Hated it. I had to force myself to finish it.
2** Didn't really like it. I didn't hate it but not sure why I finished it other than for some closure.
3*** I liked it. I had some issues with it, but as a whole it was good. I probably won't reread ever, but there is a chance I might finish the series. (If part of one) But if not it's not a huge loss.
4**** I really liked this book. Maybe not a work of genius, but highly entertaining. I might reread this, and I will finish the series. (If part of one) I would recommend to those I know hold interest in this book's content.
5***** I loved this book. I found little to no issues with it at all. I will definitely be rereading this and probably more than once. I will finish the series and reread it multiple times. (If part of one) I will recommend this book to EVERYONE!!!! ( )

This held up well. I think this is the last book in this series written by Ms Andrews ( )

In the third book of the Casteel gothic horror saga, Heaven has returned to Winnerow and marries her childhood sweetheart, Logan Stonewall. Missing her family, she invites her estranged step-father, Luke, and step-siblings, Fanny, Keith, and Jane, to the wedding—even though she now knows they are not related by blood, she still thinks of them as her only family. When they decline, her birth father, Tony Tatterton, offers to have the wedding reception at his grand estate, Farthinggale Manor. Unfortunately, Heaven accepts and is plunged—once again—into a life of drama and danger. Logan becomes enamored with Tony's wealth and his toy empire, and suddenly they are living in the manor. Surrounded by secrets and the legacy of insanity, Heaven manages to fight her way out only to find another battle awaits her at home in Winnerow. ( )

**Spoilers Ahead**
In "Fallen Hearts" Heaven marries her high school sweetheart, Logan, and they go to Farthinggale Manor, Tony Tatterton's home, for a reception. Tony offers Logan a substantial part in his company, which Logan eagerly accepts. Heaven has dark reservations about how Tony is trying to control their lives, but Logan is so excited about being a rich businessman that she goes along with the plan. Logan is building a toy factory in Winnerrow and makes frequent trips back there, so frequent he manages to knock up Heaven's sister Fanny. Whoops! Meanwhile, Heaven discovers that Troy faked his own death, and after a night of forbidden passion she too is pregnant. Jesus, doesn't anyone use condoms around here? It's not difficult, people. So Luke and his new wife are killed in an accident and Heaven takes over custody of their little boy, Drake. What really got to me in this book was how she was so eager to return to the Willies and kept waxing poetic about how wonderful it was. Um...no, I read about your childhood and it sucked pretty bad. Give me the big Boston mansion and the servants and the Rolls-Royce any day. But maybe I'm just shallow like that.
Anyway, when Fanny steals Drake with the intention of keeping him just because she's petty and jealous and wants whatever Heaven has, there's an ugly court battle where are their dirty laundry is aired in public and in the end Heaven ends up paying her a ton of money to turn Drake over to her. I don't know why she wanted him so bad, anyway, since she had her own kid on the way plus she wasn't even related to Drake since Tony Tatterton was her biological father, not Luke Casteel. Well, whatever. In the end Fanny and Heaven give birth on the same night, Fanny to Logan's little boy whom she names Luke, and Heaven to Troy's little girl (although Logan doesn't know it) whom she names Annie. At least Heaven wasn't all high and mighty over Logan after he knocked up Fanny, since she'd slept with Troy, after all. Out of all of V.C. Andrews books I think I like this series the best because there is no predictable evil grandmother and the characters are less annoying and more likable than some of the other series. There are no excuses ever made for Tony Tatterton, the real villain of the whole story. ( )
