Sarah's Reviews > Loyally, Luke

I feel a little conflicted about this book. I mean, I liked Luke in the previous stories and I liked the parts with him. I also really liked Ellie and how she worked hard to change herself and choose a new path in life after some big mistakes.
But Luke and Ellie... Honestly, I didn't really love...them.
Oh, there were sections I adored, but mostly it was just them obsessively thinking about kissing each other or trying not to think about kissing each other. This was so sad because when they weren't just acting like two hormone-driven teens, they were epic together. They worked well and complemented each other wonderfully. But kissing and hints at other stuff took up most of the page.
I don't mind kissing or thinking about kissing in my fiction, but I want the romance to have depth and solidness before and beyond the kissing. This one came so close and yet fell so short.
This book was worth reading if nothing else to continue the conversations between the siblings. I could read a lot more books about these siblings.
Why do series have to end at the wedding?

Content notes: A lot of talk about kissing as well as some extended kissing scenes. Some mentions of some inappropriate situations and photos in Ellie's past (shown as something she has repented of and left behind). A couple of vague hints of wanting to do more than kissing, a couple of which felt like honest struggles and a couple that felt pointlessly awkward.
