I love this series so much it hurts now that the end is here.
Levi’s and Annika’s Story has my heart as a retelling of Romeo and Juliet with Annika being a single mom it just hit all the right spots.
The only thing I criticize is that we didn’t get to see Levi’s and Thomas’s relationship development on page. Especially in the first half I think that and content featuring Thomas in general was missing. Levi and him building their relationship would have bring the most heart melting scenes with it, but still there were a lot of those later on.
The second epilogue is a must to read bzw!! It’s in Asher’s perspective so completely back to the start of this wonderful series.
The epilogue was so beautiful and the gum reference gave that full circle moment feeling, so you don’t feel too bad having to leave Tillikum and the Baileys.
Quotes:
“Fuck the Feud”
“Levi Bailey was going to break my heart, and I was going to break his. Not because either of us wanted to, but because our circumstances wouldn’t allow for anything else.“
“We were going to find a way.
This was real. This was love. He wasn’t giving up and neither was I.“
„Her love had healed me in ways I was only starting to understand.
And it was only the beginning of our happily ever after.“
„Love had officially won.“
“Gum fixes a lot of things”
