“Grief had a way of infiltrating everything, even when you were prepared for it.”

All good things must end, and Lucy Score went out with a bang for her Knockemout Trilogy. I never imagined Score could top her other two books - I’d heard that she did, but I didn’t believe it. Well, I’m here to say that they were all right - Things We Left Behind was phenomenal.

The third and final book came in at 592 pages; every page was worth it. We had friends to enemies to lovers (new favorite, btw), adventure, humor, action, so many emotions, and some of the steamiest scenes I’ve ever read. I can’t begin to tell you how hard it was to read about the past that Lucian and Sloane shared, that we have never been privy to (I don’t want to give away any spoilers). However, Lucy Score handled their story with such respect and kindness that it made me cry several times. Then there’s the storyline involving Sloane’s dad that just wrecked me.

I absolutely loved this series and am so glad I took the time to read about all the people in Knockemout. I can’t wait to read more of Lucy Score's writing.
