Usually pregnancy tropes are not my favorite types of books. However this one had me gripped. I think in a lot of ways I saw parts of my self in Sabrina and maybe that’s why I enjoyed it so much. Tucker is such a lovable character. Him and Sabrina are the stereotypical “black cat-golden retriever” and I’m such a sucker for that. Tucker is everything any girl could ever possibly dream of in a guy. This was a great way for the original 4 books of the Off Campus series to end.

I can’t get over how much I love this series!!! I barely slept ALL weekend so I could read it! It’s absolutely incredible!! Tuck & Sabrina man! Yet again, Tuck is another dream man, especially with his southern accent! 😘 & headstrong Sabrina, I loved everything about her! & reading about all the past couples as aunts & uncles! I just love it!! I love everything about this book! & I can’t wait to start the Legacy & see where all the couples are in the future!! 🥰

As devastated as I am to bring the Off-Campus series to a close, my heart is warmed by the way we finished. Sabrina and Tucker are such gentle souls, and they truly deserve every happiness. I only wish they’d gotten it sooner!

As always, Elle Kennedy touches on heart-wrenching topics while still maintaining the utter joy of a good romance. I don’t know how she does it, but I’m so glad she does. To The Legacy!

while I didn’t love this one as much as The Deal (that book will always be top tier), I really enjoyed seeing Sabrina grow to love herself and accept love from others. that, and baby Jamie was so damn cute :)
