I don’t think I’ve ever loved a hero/heroine duo as much as I love both Lily and Lo. I was equal parts excited and sad to finish the third and final Addicted book. It was a bittersweet moment for me. Yes, I know there are spin offs and we get LiLo there, but it’s not the same. They are one of those couples I can’t get enough of. This was for sure my favorite book of the series so far!

SQUEEE!!! This is my #1 Top Favorite on-going series!!! I have loved every single word of every single book so far, and once again, this new book was everything I could have wanted and more!!
This series truly makes you believe in the unwavering bonds of loyalty between family and the strength of love between people willing to sacrifice anything for each other; who want nothing more in life than than to be together. The Addicted series is sexy, angs ...more

On October 31st, 2014 -- Halloween and Loren Hale's birthday -- the last book in Lily & Lo's POV will release. I've mentioned this somewhere else, but I want to say it here. Krista and I are so very, very grateful and honored to have all of you read this series. It's nine books. A huge commitment, yet so many of you have stuck with us. From beginning to end. And while there are two more books left, this is a little farewell to Lily & Lo, in a way.

It was such a ride reading this at work. I was constantly laughing and drowning in awws and ohhs. I just love Lily and Lo so much. I love their love. I love how they're so intertwined and how they have learned so much from everyone and from each other.

Reviewing this from my phone so I want to be quick, sorry.
I cannot describe how incredibly proud I am. Rooting for Lily and Lo is, as I've said before, a truly honor. Few contemporary characters have made me this utterly happy as they have. I have only great things to say about them both.
The Addicted series has become one of my favorite series and it took me by surprise. I felt in love with the clinical yet emotional writing style and the characters -I love them all. Even the ones I like the lea ...more

"I knew from the beginning that we'd be addicted after all. I just didn't know whether we'd be at a better place than we were before."
Have I mentioned how much I love my Saturdays? I completely devoured this book in 7 hours straight (this book being the thickest one yet in the series), only leaving my room for potty breaks and food. In other words, I would devote my life to this series because it is my ULTIMATE guilty pleasure read. It's amazing how I fall in love wit ...more

I love this series!! I love how well thought out these characters are and the story line is consistent from the start to finish. I know I've said this before but this series reminds me of the popular 90's TV show 'Friends.' Similar in some ways but different in others. Overall, this is the book version of that tv show, sort of.

A perfect conclusion to Lily and Lo's love story. It has been an emotional journey, watching these characters struggle and grow. I have thoroughly enjoyed this series, the characters, the storylines, the writing, all combined together make for an unforgettably unique experience.

Addicted After All is the conclusion to Lily and Lo’s story, but do not fear, per Krista and Becca they will be in the other Calloway sister’s books. I have seriously loved reading about these characters. I have read and talked about them so much with my friends I am half convinced they are real people.
When we met Lily and Lo they were best friends living together and in a pretend relationship to hide their addictions. From the very beginning I knew Lo was in love with Lily, and ...more

"No sad endings, love. Those aren't meant for us."
In Lily and Lo's final installment, the couple faces new challenges while still coping with their addictions. Lily's hormones are crazy out of whack with her pregnancy, making her sex addiction a daily battle. Lo struggles with the idea that he might not make a good father. Everyone in the group struggles with awful teenage neighbors who make it their mission to torment them for their faults. Do Lily and Lo have what it t ...more

"Lily Calloway…all this time, your superpower has been loving me.” Tears cloud my eyes, and they don’t stop, especially as he adds, “And you’ll be happy to know that I’m not mortal.”
“You aren’t?” I choke.
“No.” He shakes his head, brushing away the wetness beneath my eyes. “Because my superpower is the love that I have for you. It’s out of this world, extraordinary, incomprehensible kind of love. And no one and nothing on this Earth comes close to it.”

“For the first time, I yearn for tomorrow and cherish yesterday and live for today. It’s peace that no one will take from me.”
I have stuck with this series and I now know that it is one to be cherished. From the beginning, there was something about Loren Hale and Lily Calloway that hooked me in.
“We have consumed each other from day one. And we truly never let go.”

This has to be the best book in this series so far. I loved it so much! It's sorta bittersweet because this is the last book that focuses on LiLo, but at the same time I know I will get more of them in the next books.

When I started this series I didn’t know that I’d fall in love with characters as much as I do now.
I’m really so proud of their characters development.

Addicted After All continues the Addicted Series and must be read in order. There is also a spin-off series, the Calloway Sisters, which focuses on Lily’s other sisters, Rose and Daisy.
It’s highly recommended you read Thrive prior to reading Addicted After All or the spin-off series, Kiss the Sky and Hothouse Flower or all three, which is what I did. Thrive is Lily and Lo’s POV during the same time period of Kiss the Sky and Hothouse Flower.

I am in love with Lo and Lily! Yup! You read correctly, I love Lo and Lily ❤️
After the journey we've had (Lo,Li and I), it's suffice to say that this 'relationship' took time and effort 😂
I think the main reason I changed my tune with them is because the characters have matured, their decisions are ever challenging but a work in progress. I admire them for all that they've been through to get where they are...and for that I love them.

CAN CONTAIN SPOILERS!!! Is it wrong that the highlight from the whole series - yes whole - is when Loren and Connor kiss? That was the best part. Why isn't this a love story between the two of them instead? I'm not interested in Lily, as cruel as that sounds. She's just annoying to me. Seriously, Conner and Loren's story/relationship development is the best. It even beats Loren and Ryke's relationship. There's something quite special between Loren and Conner ...more

This is the last book from Lo and Lily's POV and it was a little bittersweet. Their story is told best from their POV and I feel like their idiosyncrasies just don't translate as well when we don't get it!
However, it was amazing to see how far they've come. I was thrilled with them as a couple and even though their struggle is ongoing, they were able to adapt and overcome. The best part is that they are not perfect.

I will always have a soft spot for Ryke and Daisy. At one point of my life, they were instrumental in shaping how I had expressed myself. I’ve always believe in supporting art particularly the creators behind it. I watched this series grow, and they brought me so much joy but that spark of light had become tainted. My love for Ryke and Daisy waned. It’s not unadulterated admiration anymore.
