Phillip by Cristin HarberMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
The fourth installment of the 7 Brides for 7 Blackthornes series focuses on Phillip. He is considered to be rather irresponsible, always pulling pranks and being somewhat reckless with his actions leaving one of his brothers or cousins to clean up the mess he leaves behind.
During a golf outing with Brock, Phillip decides to go crazy with the golf cart and a brake failure leaves them headed straight towards a tent containing the guests of a major fund-raising event planned by Phillip's college love, Ashley.
Everything that transpires is caught on live television - from the cart crashing through the tent to Brock and Ashley doing public relations damage control for the event including a shot of a still smitten Phillip watching Ashley with hearts in his eyes.
Phillip vows to make up for any losses the charity may incur from the destruction of the silent auction items and to assist Ashley in any way to help with the rescheduled event.
Ashley's mother is a media and style icon (seemingly based on Martha Stewart) who accepts nothing less than perfection from her daughter. During their time spent together, Ashley discovers the truth behind her breakup with Phillip during college and it alters her relationship with both Phillip and her parents forever.
This book seemed rather short compared to some of the others so far in the series but it definitely helped to advance the overall Graham/Claire storyline and a satisfactory conclusion to a happy-ever-after that was fourteen years in the making.
I received an ARC of this book in exchange for a fair and honest review.
