The Wild Rose Review: Five stars for "The Wild Rose", Five stars for the series as a whole - I have been waiting literally years for "the Wild Rose" to be published. Ever since I first read "The Tea Rose" (which was originally written to be a standalone novel) and learned about the planned trilogy I was over the moon. It's just how good these books are. Things went downhill drastically for the Finnegan family when their father was murdered for trying to organize a dock workers union and their mother was killed by Jack the ripper. Three children survived, Fiona, Charlie, and Seamus. Fiona, in "The Tea Rose" battles star crossed love and immense poverty to become the head of a tea company in America. In "the Winter Rose" Charlie, who turned into a London crime boss after his mother's death, falls in love with a lady doctor but can't seem to shake his past. And Seamus is raised by Fiona and her gay husband/ best friend in America, running wild and exploring everything he can. "The Wild Rose" is Seamus (Seamie as he is called) turn to narrate and picks up several years after the mountain climbing disaster at the end of "The Winter Rose" that cost Seamie's love Willa her leg, and Seamie her trust and his chance to be with her. To try to keep the pain away Seamie becomes a world class explorer. But many years apart, and with World War 1 looming on the horizon there's a chance these two heavily damaged lovers will never see each other again before it's too late. There's no disputing the fact that this trilogy is essentially one really long, fantastically written soap opera. This is not a criticism, just an observation that more bad, amazing and historically important things happen to this family than any other. It's just how these books work- heartbreak after heartbreak, danger followed by more danger. But it all keeps for dissolving into a clichéd mush because of how good the characters are- how much personality they have. The level of description in this novel is also just astounding- every little smell, leaf and emotion is noted. And the epic romance's flowing through these books makes them impossible to put down- even if you aren't a fan of romance traditionally. This wrap up to the series is an amazing book, every bit as good as the two that came before it. Jennifer Donnelly is an incredibly skilled writer who obviously has the imagination to not only picture every scene in the novel as though it were part of a movie, but also pass that on to her reading audience. Five stars for "the Wild Rose", Five stars for the series as a whole. And I'll be whishing, hoping and praying until Donnelly's next adult novel comes out. Review: An enjoyable story - Very few writers can concoct a story as intertwined and elaborate as Jennifer Donnelly. That being said, at some points in the story I was beginning to feel that the world was just a bit too coincidental. How many times can people randomly meet on separate continents? All three of the Rose Trilogy books have had their bouts of out of the ordinary events however I think the Wild Rose may have over done it. I also struggled to relate to Willa like I had with Fee and India. In the previous two novels Fee and India were strong independent female characters who fought for what they loved and continued to stand on their feet. In the Wild Rose, Willa seems to self destruct time and time again, only to find stability in the end when she and Seamie were reunited. Of course I did finish the book quickly, and was entertained through out the reading process. I just do not think the finale quite lives up to the previous two of the series. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | 1401307477 | | Best Sellers Rank | #333,114 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #460 in 20th Century Historical Romance (Books) #8,837 in Historical Fiction (Books) | | Book 3 of 3 | The Tea Rose | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 4.5 out of 5 stars (3,323) | | Dimensions | 5.35 x 2.2 x 8.1 inches | | Grade level | 8 and up | | ISBN-10 | 9781401307479 | | ISBN-13 | 978-1401307479 | | Item Weight | 1.1 pounds | | Language | English | | Print length | 640 pages | | Publication date | September 1, 2009 | | Publisher | Grand Central Publishing | | Reading age | 13 years and up | ## Images ![The Wild Rose - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61+5-IpljwL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Five stars for "The Wild Rose", Five stars for the series as a whole *by L***A on December 28, 2011* I have been waiting literally years for "the Wild Rose" to be published.

Such a well done mix of researched truth and captivating fiction. My sister and my mother had both raved and insisted that I read the 3 book series as well. Here I am tonight smiling and so happy that I listened... and read! I loved the history, the settings, the characters, the strong wills and their important roles. I felt like I was watching history happen! (One thing that actually happened while I was on book 3, during March 2019, there was current news that DNA evidence revealed the true Jack the Ripper! Who it actually is would have changed the book 1 story, but it just doesn't matter!) As I read each of the 3 books I realized and appreciated how they went together, but could also easily stand on their own. It is a super great series, you will be happy spending your time relaxing with it!!! --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.in/products/8069587-the-wild-rose](https://www.desertcart.in/products/8069587-the-wild-rose) --- *Product available on Desertcart India* *Store origin: IN* *Last updated: 2026-04-28*
