The truth is that ever story ends at some point. It's just that some stories end happier that others.

I've experience a lot of emotions since the beginning of Houston and Rory's love story. The Way We rise is the final conclusion of The Story of Us. It is sad to say goodbye to the characters that you fall in love with. This beautiful love story ends perfectly. A perfect ending for a perfect story. No words how very much I adore and how talented Cassia Leo is. I will surely miss this series. ...more

The conclusion of a series is always my favorite because I can’t wait to see how everything plays out. I have loved this series since the beginning and I was so excited to read TWWR.

This was such an awesome end to a great series! The characters and the storyline were so fascinating. I really didn’t want it to end. Cassia did not disappoint with the conclusion of Rory’s and Houston’s story. Everything that needed to be answered was as we finished this journey. So much emotion and heart packed in ...more

The Way We Rise is a great conclusion to the Story of Us series. Rory and Houston seem to have found their way back to each other only for Houston to suggest they try being friends. They have made mistakes and kept secrets, so Houston wants to take a different approach. They need to come to terms with the event that originally pushed them together and broke them. Their family and friends play key roles as secondary characters. The Way We Rise is emotional, with plenty of drama, angst, heat, and ...more

This is the last book of The Story Of Us series, the book with all the answers, where all the secrets are revealed and where fate is found.
I'm struggling to write my review... there's so much I want to say about this story but at the same time I cant take away the chance of others to discover the amazing plot Cassia gave us.
Emotional, angsty, even humorous, this book seals Houston and Rory's journey in a way that hooks you from the beginning.

If you read the previous books, you remember how The W ...more

I don't know how I feel about this story ending. I don't mean that in a bad way I just mean that I seriously feel very invested in the lives of Rory and Houston at this point and to know that their story has ended makes me sad. I am sure that once again I experienced every emotion imaginable while reading, just like I did with the other two stories in this series, but again that is totally not a bad thing. There were times that I wanted to slap Rory for some of the decisions that she made and th ...more

I freaking LOVE this series so much!!! This one didn't disappoint. I was so excited to review this book and hear the ending to Houston and Rory's story. What a great ending it was!!! Houston is such a wonderful man who would and does anything for Rory to make her happy and make her life better. Best epilogue ever!!!! Although the mini heart attack I had at the end was a doozie. Their story had so much heart ache and disappointing moments but in the end it all wrapped up into something extremely ...more

I completely love this series, this was a amazing end to a beautiful story. Houston and Rory have been through so much throughout their relationship but in the end it all worked out for the best. This was an emotional roller coaster, I cried, laughed and nearly fell to the floor in the epilogue, and what a great one it was. I will definitely miss all the characters in this story and hope maybe just maybe we will hear something about them in the future. Cassia Leo, you did it again, I was so happ ...more

My husband asked me what I was so engrossed in reading last night and I told him the end of a three book series. That is a simple answer but doesn't due justice to the amazing story I just read. I was so touched by this story it made me laugh, cry and just fall in love with the characters. The best part was how real it was I feel like I just read my best friends story. There are so many wonderful parts in this book. I fell in love with Houston & Rory in book one and this book cemented them forev ...more

“You see, in real life, there are no happy endings, because real life, real love, has no ending.”

The perfect conclusion to the series...there was a jaw dropping moment but otherwise perfect!
