FINALLY we have the long anticipated finale starring our favorite couple Trip/Layla! When we last left this dynamic duo there was a “SURPRISE” cliffy of an OMG, say it’s not so angsty breakup that had me wanting to thrown my kindle. I’ve finally calmed down and was ready to get this show on the road. Thankfully the author didn’t start off bk 3 with a rehash of the whole breakup (frankly that was hard enough to go through the first time). After a brief prologue about Trip’s hotel room melt down the night of the break up (poor Trip), the author advances the story 5 years. Trip’s alcoholic dad has died and he needs Layla by his side. Once they see each other – WHAM these two are a couple and back on solid ground. (Thank the book gods!)The story seemed to drag a bit when Trip/Layla are in LA and she’s getting used to Trip’s life as a celebrity. Just not the same as being in Jersey. Along the way though there’s some cute humor, fun times, hot sex and a swoon worthy moment when Trip imitates “Jake Ryan” from the movie 16 Candles. (Is there anyone who didn’t love that?!?!)(Shakes head…sigh) but this is Trip/Layla and they have their issues to work through and thus drama ensues. But thankfully all ends well with a happy HEA (happily ever after) and brief snippets of epilogue that I wish had been longer.To the author I say sorry to see it end, but thanks, it was a heck of a fun ride.
