2-3-4 Challenge Book Discussions #2 discussion

Elaborate arrangements are made to take Ethan to Eversby Prior for his safety and recuperation. The Ravenels meet the challenge and Ethan learns a lot about the family he’s tried to reject. Why do you believe they so readily accept him? What did you find to be most remarkable about what happened during this time?

They all knew their father, Edmund, was an SOB and that Ethan had no part in how he was treated by him. They all had suffered at his hands. I found it remarkable that everyone rallied around Ethan, accepted him, kept him safe and help him heal.

I agree, Anita. Devon and West both knew how Edmund had treated his children. They also knew he knew about Ethan and rejected him. I think they are trying to make up for the things that Edmund did.

I’m with both of you. The earlier generation of Ravenel men (Edmund and Devon & West’s father) left a lot to be desired and their children suffered as a consequence. That shared experience bonds their offspring. They embraced Ethan and he later them when he learned that he’d probably had a better childhood than they did!

I loved this part of the book as these children and their spouses are creating a new family. West really stepped up here, too. He’s a different man now.

Great point about West. He is truly a different man than the one we were first introduced to.

I agree with all of you. I love West from the first time we meet him. I looking forward to his book.

I agree with all of you also. I loved West right from the beginning and his character just keeps getting better. I can't wait until I can get to his book too.
