Reviews with content warning for Sexual content - The Legacy

I loved getting a moment to revisit these characters! I saw some reviews before I got into the book and expected something less satisfying for each of these couples’ outcomes but I was just pleased for more of their stories! My only complaint was the Dean and Allie story and seeing their conflict just because it felt like something that would have been worked out earlier in their relationship. Still overall loved this and would even love more of these novellas/short stories to build their world in between the end of the series and the next generation! And honestly…I liked the Alexander bit. It was just a funny lighthearted way to connect their stories and something people do in long distance relationships all the time!

“It's times like this I remember why I fell so hopelessly hard for this girl.”

Took me a long time to go on to read this because after reading all four books last year, I thought a novella about them wouldn't be that important. I was dead wrong though. It was the closure I needed and a start of different series (The Graham Effect being the first one). It made me remember the whole four books in that short stories per couple. I missed them completely. All four couples - especially my favorites, Hannah and Garrett, of course.

Logan x Grace: The Pact
This couple was my least favorite in the series so when it started it them, I was sad to say that I was disappointed. But nonetheless, it was still a great read and it was a cute development between the two. I'm glad to see how Logan's family is after everything that happened. The ending was adorable, as well.

Dean x Allie: The Proposal
This couple, I missed so much. I forgot how Dean and Allie was as a couple and how much they are truly meant to be. The fight between them was very important as it was for their future and if it does not align with one another, then something is bound to fail. I'm so glad that they both sorted that because I can't live knowing that these two are not together.

Tucker x Sabrina: The Honeymoon
This couple was also a surprise favorite of mine. I usually don't like accidental pregnancy but the story that these two have is one for the books (literally!). So when they finally got the honeymoon they deserved, I just lost it. They needed this after that baby, who is just the cutest as well! I'm bummed out to not find out what their vows to one another is though.

Garrett x Hannah: The Legacy
Okay, Elle Kennedy. Make the favorite couple the last pair. Everyone I know of loves Garrett and Hannah together so it was just a bummer to have them as last because I can't read 200+ pages just to get to them? But I had to, so I did and I was definitely not disappointed. I love this couple and finding out they'd have their kids really made me excited - yes, I'll definitely be reading Graham Effect to see more of this couple!

I’m not ready to say goodbye to these characters!! Especially not Allie & Dean, they’re my favorite! And I honestly don’t really know why, but as soon as I finished their part in the story, I immediately wanted to reread it! Same with their book in the series, I read it so fast I couldn’t put it down & immediately wanted to reread it when I finished. Hannah & Garrett are a close second though! 💜
I loved this book and getting to see everyone after graduation & starting their lives together, getting married, having kids; it’s just so magical! 🥰
Can I reread them all now? lol I know I have more books in the briar universe to read, like Fitzy & his friends stories & then the future story of G & H’s daughter. But I honestly just want to reread these ones again first! I have a problem! Lol 😬

I understand that some people didn't enjoy this epilogue novel, but I did. It was enjoyable to read about the couples from the Off-Campus series, and I found myself laughing at several scenes. Those who know me understand that it's usually easier to make me cry than laugh while reading books.

I enjoyed Dean and Allie's storyline in The Legacy, even though The Score was my least favorite book in the Off-Campus series.

I greatly disliked Hannah in this book. I understand she was trying to protect Garrett, but her unwillingness to speak out, fearing it might negatively affect her due to Garrett's mood, revealed her selfishness.

Garrett and Hannah both had a part in making their child. Garrett should have been told about the pregnancy right away. But when he got upset because Hannah hid it for a long time, she was surprisingly angry at him.

It felt like reading about a completely different Hannah. The Hannah from The Deal and The Legacy seemed like two different people.
