This book made me emotional. I had to pause for a day because reading about these kids that grew up together and all of them having rough lives.. seeing it all come together with happy endings for everyone? Crying. I was so excited for Hayes story. You could tell in everyone else’s books that he just loved so hard. Sav & Hayes are the perfect example of a healthy and loving relationship. Read this book if you want a romance that has no crazy and unnecessary drama. It’s just pure love and friendship. Sad to see the end of Magnolia Falls, but happy they all got their happily ever afters.

I love @laurapavlovauthor books. I have the rest of the series, but I loved this books blurbs so I started with this one. Now I’ll read the rest in order. Evidently I have no self control 🤣
This is Savannah and Hayes story and it is such a sweet romance. They’ve been best friends all their life. Plus they’ve been there for each other through situations life threw at them up until 10 years ago when Savannah and her dad moved away and she blocked his phone number and he had no clue what was going on or where she was.
Then a situation brings Savannah back to Magnolia Falls. Within hours Hayes finds out and shows up where he has been tipped off she is. Let the showdown proceed!
Read the book to find out how this reunion after a decade goes!
I highly recommend this book and series. I could not quit listening!

This is not real enemies to lovers and I feel they fell back into love too fast. Not overall bad but very predictable

Obsessed. Childhood best friends that lost contact due to his crazy ex girlfriend and her crappy mom then reconnected after years and a fake marriage. I loveeeeed it! They are perfect for each other, Hayes was so sweet.

I just adored the Magnolia Falls series. This is the final book and it's Hayes and Savannah's story. Hayes and Sav were best friends growing up. But lots of family drama got in the way. Sav returns to Magnolia Falls after 10 years away. I don't want to give too much away but think marriage of convience! There's lots of forgiving and rehashing of the past. These two have been through it. I just adored all the characters in this series. Especially Beefcake. It all gets wrapped up really nicely. I'm excited to read what Laura writes next.
Me gustó mucho pero tiene tropes que no me encantan
This was a pretty good read for me. The writing flowed well, and I liked Hayes and Savannah together for the most part. I wasn't a big fan of Savannah honestly. She cut Hayes (and everyone else from Magnolia Falls) out of her life for a decade because of something that she thought happened. She never tried to confirm, just took the word of a girl that she knew hated her, and ghosted. When she came back and the fake relationship started, she kept having thoughts about how she didn't like lying to the people that she liked. Ghosting them for 10 years was okay, but lying was hard? It didn't make sense to me. Then at the end when she finds out what she finds out (trying not to give anything away), instead of talking to Hayes, she shuts him out and won't communicate with him. It was super frustrating. Hayes was a pretty good guy, and I felt like he did a better job of communicating with Savannah. It seemed like he was always the one bringing up the status of their relationship, and he was actually the one that went to her at the end and made her open up about what was going on. I really liked the friendship between Hayes and the guys. They were always there for each other, no matter what. Cutler was of course a cute addition to this story as well. He cracked me up. The ending was sweet, and these two do get their HEA.

I have loved all of Laura’s books I’ve read to date. And I am so sad this series was ending. Even tho I have this 4 stars, I have to say this was my least fave in the series. I loved Hayes through out this series but there just seemed to be a confusing aspect to the miscommunication trope I already don’t like. And another trope that I normally don’t mind had a spin on it I didn’t care so much for. But, even having said that it was a good finale to this series and I’m happy to have read it.
