I’ve been waiting for Sloane & Lucian’s story since they were first hinted at in book 1, and this didn’t disappoint. Loved Lucian Rollins and his broody, sexy, thoughtful ways - and who couldn’t adore Sloane? I was kicking my feet, smiling, blushing & laughing (and crying!) all the way through it. A brilliant ending to the series.

Things We Left Behind by Lucy Score 

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ (4/5)

Genre: Romance

About 580 pages

In the last book of the Knockemout series, we finally get the story of Sloane and Lucian. For years there has been tension between them, both sexual tension and hatred. But After seeing their friends fall in love over the past few years, they’ve softened up a bit which is how their fighting turns into foreplay. In an effort to prove how wrong they are for each other, they decide to sleep together one time. But that one time didn’t accomplish what they had hoped. Now they are questioning if they can forgive each other for the past and if there is a compromise on what they want for the future.

This was by far my favorite book in the Knockemout series! The primary reason for this is the build-up we got on Lucian and Sloane in books one and two and their long-standing history. I also liked how this book jumped back and forth between the past and present. Score did a fantastic job neatly wrapping up the series in this book!

Favorite Quote: “Sometimes you have to stop waiting for something to happen and start making it happen.”

Wow, what a great book. I’m a sucker for friends to enemies to lovers, and both Sloane and Lucien were great characters in the last two books. They absolutely brought it as main characters! And for vanilla sex, that shit was spicy! I’m obsessed. 

Dark Romance, Friends to Enemies to Lovers, Lots of Trauma, 3 3/4 🔥

I was nervous about this one. I enjoyed book one but book two was a drag. This one seemed to have WAY more potential, with banter I really enjoyed and the same goofy lovable cast of characters- right up until Lucien’s big turning point. It completely lost me after that. 

Like the books before it, the characters are too grown to be as unreasonable as they are. It’s decades younger behavior.
