A review by cozycritiques
The Legacy by Elle Kennedy
funny
lighthearted
fast-paced
“It’s times like this I remember why I fell so hopelessly hard for this girl.”
Tropes: Weddings, Proposals, Accidental Pregnancy, Miscommunication
Spice Scale: 🌶🌶🌶
CW: Past Sexual Assault, Past Child Abuse, Plane Troubles, Minor Injury
I have mixed feelings about this book. One one hand, I loved the characters in this series (for the most part—see my review for The Mistake), so I was excited to read more of them. It was also fun trying to guess which couple would get which storyline/milestone.
However, the plot was lacking for me. Since this was an epilogue book, I went into this hoping for 320 pages of pure fluff, and while there were some cute moments, there was a lot of miscommunication. For four couples whose paths to love were not exactly smooth sailing, I hoped for more growth in their communication styles after three years of being together. The drama that each of the couples go through felt a little forced.
That being said, there were a lot of really cute moments. The banter and shenanigans that I enjoyed from the first four books were there, and I laughed out loud every time Alexander made an appearance (I would explain more, but it would spoil it). But it was the bromance between Garrett, Dean, Logan, and Tucker that really stole the show.
