From the author of The Marriage Pact (2011) and Regrets Only (2012) comes Baggage Check, the third and final installment in this quirky romance series. At thirty-five, Rebecca Williamson is surrounded by happy endings. Her friends Suzanne and Marci are living out their own personal fairy tales in Atlanta, Georgia. But despite Rebecca’s best efforts four years ago, her adorable college friend Jake Stillwell has officially slipped through her fingers and broken her heart. Even though her job as a flight attendant fits perfectly with her orderly nature, and brings her into contact with lots of eligible men, she can’t seem to find a man who is Jake’s equal. Then a frantic phone call from her mother in Oreville, Alabama turns Rebecca’s structured life on its ear. She will find herself back in the tiny town she worked so hard to leave behind, and thrown together with Deputy Alex Chen, a face from the past who’s made it clear he thinks of Rebecca as more than just an old friend’s kid sister. But Alex is nothing like what Rebecca had in mind; and in the meantime, she has other battles to fight, including her painful family history. Can she navigate the chaos and get her life back to normal? Will Alex prove himself to be the friend she's always needed? Or will she discover that the door to Jake is not as tightly closed as she thought?

Both protagonists are incredibly likable, though flawed, and together their friendshipo-fueled chemistry sizzles. Despite the thread of suspense that runs through the plot, the story still manages to convey a tone of warmth. Dylan himself evokes smiles nearly every time he appears on teh page, thanks to his wry amusement, and, frankly, his sheer dreaminess. The reminder not to judge a person by assumptions rings true and timely. "Romantic Times, "four star review

Just as Suzanne's nearly perfect life falls apart she finds herself on a roller-coaster journey (with a country music star no less!) with surprises both haunting and heartening, leading her to exactly where she was meant to be.
