Everything I Want by K.L. Shandwick

5.0

I was provided a copy of the books in this trilogy in exchange for an honest review as part of Beautifully Broken Book Blog. During this final book of The Everything Trilogy, Lily feels that her life is finally moving on without Alfie. It hasn't been easy, but her band is keeping her busy and is coming more successful. She has even begun to see someone. At the same time, Alfie's band has been signed and is one of the most popular bands. Lily constantly sees publicity of Alfie and his girlfriend. After several occasions Alfie is finally able to convince Lily to hear him out about his feelings for her. The two admit that the love each other and that the people they have been seeing are merely keeping them company. However, Lily and Alfie are both becoming successful musicians and the author keeps you guessing on whether love is enough to keep the two together without either of them giving up on their lifelong dreams. I thought the first two books were full of many ups and downs, but they have nothing on the emotional decisions that Lily is forced to make in this final book. By the time I got to this book, I felt like I was so emotionally attached to the characters in this trilogy and was rooting for everything to work out for the best. At times I hated Alfie and Lily both for the mistakes they made and the heartache they caused each other. The author had me crying, laughing, and cussing many times throughout this trilogy and I would highly recommend it to others and will most likely read it again.
