This series is the definition of curve ball and somehow it always makes sense. There is no solving these books in advance. You, the reader, are definitely just along for the whirlwind ride, and yet they always keep me feeling engaged. 
It takes forever to get to an answer but the pacing is done so well that the book never feels slow.
Once again, Jennifer Lynn Barnes has earned a gold star for dialogue. Every quip had me smiling. Every heartfelt confession tugged at my heart. 
I don't know how the characters of Hawthorne House can be so mysterious and so loveable at the same time, but every one of them is thoroughly enjoyable.
Even though the story felt like it would have to leave loose ends, Barnes managed to wrap every mystery in a satisfying bow.
The plot may not be complex and the characters may not be the deepest you'll ever read, but I completely enjoyed every page of The Hawthorne Legacy and can't wait to dive in to book 3.

This book was just as much a goddamn rollercoaster as the first. I’m not sure how much I enjoy the love triangle between Avery, Jameson and Grayson, but I do enjoy how all the brothers feel a sort of protectiveness for her.

The whole ‘Avery is Toby’s daughter’ to ‘oh she isn’t it’s this random girl who’s two older siblings work for her just to find him’ I really didn’t enjoy, I think I would have liked it more if Avery actually was Toby’s daughter, but that might just be coming from my hatred for Ricky and Skye and whatever the hell they were trying to do.

I did really enjoy, however, how Max was far more present in the second book than the first, in the first book I felt like Avery was too isolated, with the Hawthorne boys only wanting her cause she was either similar to Emily or to help them solve the mystery. Also, I loved how both Grayson and Jameson have sort of matured, Jameson more so, and how they both know that no matter their feelings they need to put their arguments aside to protect her.
