Jackson is a small town story type of book that pulls you in. I felt like I was with Caroline and Jackson every step of the way in their relationship from friendship to love. Truly an enjoyable book.

I will say, the first chapter or two hits you with a lot of info and it is cluttered, I had to go back and reread it a couple time to get myself sorted out to continue the book but well worth the read.

Being transported to Redemption, Texas in this book is like finding a comfort level with people you wish were real and related to you!
A most beautiful read filed with laughter, tears and many joys! Emily March delivers a book that the reader just does not want to end--while eagerly awaiting another title!
Thank you so much for allowing me to read this title prior to publication--it was so thoroughly enjoyed!

Jackson is an outstanding western romance by Emily March. Ms. March has given readers a well-written book. I suppose this book is a crossover between this new series and another series by Ms. March. We meet delightful new characters while also getting a visit with characters from the older series. Jackson is a musician/songwriter that just lost visitation with his daughter when his cousin calls him to meet him in Texas. Caroline is struggling with the fact that her husband no longer knows her and to top it off, he's in love with someone else. Caroline and Jackson's story is packed with drama, humor and spice. I totally loved reading Jackson and can't wait for the next book in the series. Jackson is book 1 of The McBrides of Texas Series and book 16 of the Eternity Springs Series but can be read as a standalone. This is a complete book, not a cliff-hanger.

I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book that I received from NetGalley. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

I loved the Eternity Springs series and am thrilled that this spin off brings back characters from Eternity Springs. This new series is set in in Redemption, Texas but has the same small home town feeling as her other series. I really like the characters and the emotion in the story. I thought the ending was perfect for this book

JACKSON by Emily March is a wonderful small town romance! It's heartbreaking and warm and funny! The story has all of one's emotions tied up. Emily March is a gifted storyteller!

I love this new series with many of the characters from the Eternity Springs series. This one is set in Texas Hill Country, between the town of Redemption and the ghost town of Ruin. The McBride cousins inherit a canyon that's claimed to be enchanted that lies about halfway in between. Caroline and Jackson meet in Redemption and sparks fly, but neither is ready for a relationship. Their story is poignant and powerful, and such a great read! I really enjoyed the tie-ins to Eternity Springs as well as the new characters in this Texas based series. Looking forward to reading more about the Redemption/Enchanted Canyon crew.

Jackson is one of three cousins that inherit a canyon ranch. They have to find a way to make it profitable to pay the taxes. They visit and fall in love with it. Jackson has idea and manages to develop a campground and B & B. Meets a casual friend and loves developes. You'll want to watch for the next story of enchantment.

An awesome way to connect series! If you loved the Eternity Springs series you'll love this series as well.
Emily does a fantastic job of intermingling the characters from both series.

Stupid judges.

Poor Celeste! Although, I wouldn't put it past her to command a fever-onset just to get Caroline onboard.

Witch.

Over a Super Bowl?

I need a great-aunt.

It's like a racy chicken-or-the-egg scenario.

Okay, so he doesn't know his own strength. That doesn't mean he is a dangerous parent.

They are both starting over. That's nice.

Really, who says no to fried chicken?

He still hasn't seen his daughter? I thought it was only six months.

Angelica is just as much fun as her cousin.

I'm glad he didn't change the dance hall.

I love that song, but I had no idea it was Bach.

Oooh, why did you really move away, Boone?

I love Angelica. She is so smart!

Just when things are going well...

This is so scary. I hope Haley is alright.

Idiot man.

That is one crazy woman.

Gillian is better off.

I'm glad Sharon and Caroline like each other.

3.5 stars
Caroline and Jackson’s story was a sweet read. Even though sparks flew between them early on, neither one ready, much less aware of it. When they meet again, their friendship takes center stage before gradually moving into a sweetly subtle romance. Family drama for both Caroline and Jackson crop up occasionally, but the romance was a definite focal point.

New beginnings, friendships, and relationships was a running theme with the very large McBride family and their friends! I liked the focus on female friendships and enjoyed the cousin connections with Jackson, Tucker, and Boone. Mild angst came courtesy of Jackson’s ex, but for the most part this was a smooth read.

5+ Stars! Great start to a new series- The McBrides of Texas.

Those of you that loved the Eternity Springs series will be thrilled with this spinoff in Redemption, Texas with the famous McBrides. While Boone makes such an impression in the Eternity Springs series, I have a feeling that Emily March is leaving the best for last with him as she gives us Boone's cousin, Jackson. Just as the many find healing in Eternity Springs, redemption is found in Texas.

You will fall in love with Jackson from the get go. He is in a terrible position from the start that you sympathize and love him immediately. Headed to Redemption, Jackson hopes to find a way to heal and find the melody of his soul.

Caroline Carruthers is in a sad and lonely spot, but finds her way to Redemption for a short trip to help out a finagling Celeste. While she is only their briefly, the town makes a great impression so when she needs to move away to heal, Redemption seems the perfect spot.

While neither Jackson not Caroline are looking for love, they strike up a sweet and deep friendship. The chemistry is undeniable- so they don't deny it! LOL! While the road to redemption is anything but smooth sailing, Caroline and Jackson rely on one another to handle the ups and downs together to find a second chance at true love.

Emily March is so good at people, love and life stories. This one started in Texas with the McBride cousins. Luke is freshly divorced and just lost partial custody of his young daughter. Tucker and Boone are still mysteries.
His healing and turn around is beautiful and I loved the story. We are reconnected with Eternity Springs and I can't think of a more perfect ending.
