Forever Trilogy #3
Between Now and Always
He was searching for the truth.
I was living a lie.
Our paths should never have crossed.
Yet, when we kissed it felt like destiny.
Falling in love was messy
We broke rules we should have followed.
We made promises we couldn’t keep.
Forever felt impossible.
Heartbreak was inevitable.
Always would cost us everything.
I was living a lie.
Our paths should never have crossed.
Yet, when we kissed it felt like destiny.
Falling in love was messy
We broke rules we should have followed.
We made promises we couldn’t keep.
Forever felt impossible.
Heartbreak was inevitable.
Always would cost us everything.

Climax is the epic conclusion to Dylan Allen’s Temptation Trilogy. Seriously ya’ll, this was by far the best in the series and had such an amazing ending. I enjoyed the first two, but this book… this book I loved.
After finishing book 2 in this trilogy, I was nervous about what was going to happen. Honestly, I wasn’t sure how things would work out for this couple. There were some major revelations that were true game changers in the last book, and things seemed impossible for them. The thing I loved about this book the most was no matter how much time, distance, and trials, Beth never gave up. Carter was still her person and she found this strength within herself. These two love each other so fiercely, and even when the cards are stacked against them, they want to find a way.
In the first two books, Carter was my favorite character in this trilogy… and even though I still love him, Beth is 100% the MVP of these books. Her growth is like nothing else and she’s so strong, empowering, and I couldn’t get enough of her. She’s a hero to so many and I couldn’t have loved her more. When she made her speech, I cried so hard. It was so beautiful and I’m so glad she found peace with herself and her life and is living as her true self. It’s such a stunning thing to witness.
This is one of those books that will grip you from the first page and never let go. I had to keep reading to find out what was going to happen with Beth and Carter. Their romance is messy, difficult to read, and at times seems hopeless, but the kind of love they have… there’s power in that. I loved watching them persevere and against all odds find their way back to one another.
This is a powerful love story. It’s angsty, addictive, romantic, and steamy. I love broken characters and stories of love overcoming all, this had all that in spades. The writing will keep you hooked and if you’re anything like me, this will keep you up reading way past your bedtime.
Between Now and Always, I will Love him.

“He’s….my best everything. Ever,” she says with a happy, matchlessly beautiful smile. My heart does that thing…that stumble, trip and fall that has always been its response to being near her. It doesn’t care that she’s my…whatever. It only knows that for me, she is love.

“That a woman like you loves me, even now, when I have no right to that love, has been my saving grace. I want the world to know, It’s you my heart calls queen. If you’ll have me, I don’t want anything more than I want you to be mine, too.”

Between Now and Always is LIVE! The trilogy is now complete, and let me tell you, buckle up buttercups! It’s a wild intense love story.
This series had me “teetering on a knife’s edge of calm” the whole time. That’s right, I’m quoting Dylan’s fabulous words right back at her! I am blown away, and I feel like D has stepped up her writing game a notch, bringing us the blood, guts, sweat and tears that I know I crave as a reader and fangirl of hers.
I love Beth and Carter so much, and it’s been so amazing to see the growth in these two characters, throughout these books. I LOVE brave, fierce heroines, and Beth has the “heart of a lion.” In the beginning of this book we see her as this timid, insecure young lady, but by the end of this series, she’s kicking ass, and taking names later. One of my fave female characters last year that I read!
Carter, where do I begin to express my feels for this dirty talking, crazy talented, all heart in love with Beth. The things he says to her, set my soul on fire. He is beyond sexy, and not afraid to fight for what he wants. I love him so much! I loved the way he saw Beth from the beginning when no one else could see the pure jewel that was underneath all the pain, heartache and anguish.
“Open your eyes, baby, I want you to see what I see.” I feel like he was talking to me when he said this to her throughout the book. Swoon.
These books had everything. Suspense, eye rolling, body chills, unpredictability, and SUPER HOT moments in between.
If you haven’t read them, stop what you’re doing and download today. 5 gahmazing stars ⭐️ for Dylan Allen!!

Allen goes for the carotid artery in Between Now and Always......her weapon? Her sharp words leaving your emotions to bleed out on every page....the feels are massive and rapid but I promise she'll stitch you back together in the most impeccable way.
Between now and Always is a fast paced, high intensity romance with elements of suspense that's not just about star crossed lovers Carter and Beth but about years of lies, deceit, debauchery and secrets that keep you guessing with every page turn!
Carter and Beth’s love is addictive, frantic, pure, sensual and triumphant. Every moment they're not together makes your heart ache because you just know that these two will always and have always been meant to be together today, tomorrow and forever.

"Nothing – distance, death, doubt – has been able to stop this love."
I could stand up and start clapping and whistling, but that wouldn’t be enough. There’s no sufficient way to pay homage to this ultimate love story. Because that's exactly what The Forever Trilogy is - an outstanding and remarkable tale that’s raw, real and heart-gripping. Allen took us on the incredible journey, full of angst, suspense and truest feelings and in Between Now and Always it has its climax. And even though Dylan squeezed a sea of tears from me and crushed my heart, it was all worth it. Because this conclusion? IT’S WORTH EVERYTHING.
This book precisely shows how much Beth changed, how she matured from the naive girl with dreams to a confident and independent woman. This heroine is a real role model and inspiration. She’s not perfect, she has flaws and imperfections but she shows us that we should embrace them, because there’s beauty in all of us. Everything this girl went through resulted in life wisdom, tenacity and strength. She’s a perfect example for the saying ‘what doesn't kill you makes you stronger’. Go Beth!
Carter has my heart in his grip since the first book. This troubled musican is full of contradictions, but they all harmonize together beautifully. He’s strong, but tender. He’s loving and dirty-mouthed. He’s gentle, but also commanding. Combined with his artistic soul he’s an irresistible man and I couldn’t love him more.
Their relantionship had many ups and downs. They faced countless obstacles, conspiracies and deceptions. But no matter what the problem or the situation was, you could feel the love and longing deep in your bones. You just knew that there’s no other way, that Carter and Beth NEED to end up together, because without each other they wouldn’t be complete. I’m still in awe how Dylan managed to portait the connection and love so deep. It’s incredible.
This conclusion was simply epic. Head-spinning, surprising and literally phenomenal. All the lies, secrets and scams led to the culmination point that just blew me away. Dylan Allen is an excellent storyteller. Her lyrical prose flows smoothly and seeps deep into your soul. Her books are always filled with motivation and life lessons. And believe me, Between Now and Always has it in spades. This Trilogy is pure Dylan Allen – angsty, sensual and heartbreakingly beautiful.

What a way to start 2020! Elizabeth and Carter's story is complicated, heartbreaking, sweet, sexy, moving, suspenseful, and overall just EPIC! You need to read the previous books in this series to get the whole story. Even when you want to throw your Kindle/book because of something crazy happening to these characters, you must keep going. I cried, I wanted to throw my Kindle, I had to stop to take a break because my heart hurt so much, but I finished. Now that I have finished this EPIC story, I miss Elizabeth and Carter. I have learned so much through these fictional characters because you can feel Dylan Allen's heart and soul through all of these characters she has crafted in a beautiful and complicated love story.

Wow just wow.
What a book !! I luv this author and all her books but this trilogy is just amazing. The twists and turns having kept me in my toes from the first page of the first book to the last page of this book. Every book has twist that shocked me but this book the twists just kept coming and they were sooooo good.
I'm really not goin to say much in this review cause I don't want to spoil a thing about it. Just know that Elisabeth and Carter's story still isn't an easy. Elisabeth family are crazier than ever which just makes life hard for them. They make such a perfect couple I just want everyone to leave them alone. Life is hard enough but they do need to know what is goin on and get to the bottom of all the madness.
I would highly recommend this book. If you have read a book from this author do she is one of my favourites and her books never let me down. Elisabeth and Carter's story isn't easy there is angst, sadness anf betrayal but there is also love, happiness and a HEA. You won't be disappointed reading this trilogy it will keep you in your toes. You do have to read in order you could miss important stuff if you don't and the story won't flow either. But trust me once you start it you won't want to put it down.

Again, I can't say much without giving things away. And even if I did, there's no way to prepare yourself. Liz is wondering if there is anyone she can trust besides herself. There's also a lot of "little things" that seem to not mean anything but have a huge impact later on.
The bottom line is will Liz end up with Duke or Carter. What seems obvious gets muddled.
One of the issues I had was the antiquated feel the story line had. It was hard to be believable. And the twist at the end was too cliche and over the top...I mean, really?
What I did love was Liz's progression of herself as a person. Even though she takes hit after hit, she finally stands true to herself and that was everything.
I love when series are about the same people especially three book series...it's just the right amount. This series was overloaded with secrets and mysteries and while A LOT of the time I just wanted to chuck my kindle, at other times, I couldn't put it down.
It does end well but we knew that from the prologue of book one (and I wasn't a fan of that being known). I loved the way things worked out for Liz and what became of her life. It did leave me with one lingering question though...what about the will?

I don’t know what to say. I mean, I have the words, though trying to pour them out and knowing that they won’t be enough is quite difficult. I’m a wreck. My emotions are at high level. That organ, you know the one in the middle compartment of your chest—the heart, well it’s in pieces. Scattered in all directions waiting to be stitched back together.
Between Now and Always is the conclusion of the Forever Trilogy. I’ve been not so patiently waiting—wanting and needing to know how Carter and Beth’s story would conclude. These two have had my heart right from the beginning. The emotions they’ve put me through have been so intense at times I couldn’t help but shed tears. These two have been through a long, difficult and heartbreaking journey and I desperately needed their HEA.
There’s no question that Carter and Beth are meant to be together. Their connection is so strong and there’s no denying their chemistry. My heart broke at the things Beth went through and thank goodness for Carter. His love for Beth was selfless and was exactly what she needed. And it was obvious from the beginning Beth and Carter were destined for each other.
Between Now and Always had suspense, unpredictability and romance. It was the perfect conclusion to Carter and Beth’s story. Their journey isn’t easy, but in the end the emotional ride they put you through will be well worth it. Dylan Allen once again weaves her brilliance in an unforgettable love story—simply impeccable.

To be fair, I obviously enjoyed this series enough to continue reading it to the very end, so you can take what you want from that fact. But this series is definitely not one I'd normally keep reading. It's very OTT with its drama and its wild twists. That's great, if you like that kind of thing, it's just not really my jam. I prefer a more relatable, less soapy plot, but that's just a matter of personal taste. I kept at it though because I definitely wanted to see how it all played out. Full disclosure though, the typos in this book almost had me throwing in the towel. It really needed some serious polishing up before it went live. One glaring slip totally spoiled what should've been a major jaw dropper of a twist. Anyway, this was the first series I've read from Dylan Allen and I LOVED her writing style. This storyline didn't necessarily WOW me as much as it did for many other readers but the author's writing definitely did so I'll likely be reading her previous work very soon. All in all, this series was enjoyable, entertaining, verrrrry steamy, and full of twists. I liked it enough, I just struggled with certain suspects. I think most readers will enjoy it!

D Allen ended this trilogy with a BOOM and a mic drop. It's SO addictive. So passionate. So heart wrenching you won't want it to end! I absolutely LOVED this final book of the Forever Trilogy series. Carter & Beth are everything, and their story evolved exactly as it should have. I was addicted and captivated by each scene in this book. All questions will be answered, Carter will steal your heart even more than he already has, and Beth will rise up against her demons and show her strength every chance she gets. Their chemistry together is magnetic and passionate, and they are SO HOT. The emotional journey of this book is worth every tear, sigh, swoon and gasp. I have LOVED every second of this series. Get ready!!

I can truly admit that Dylan Allen safe the best for the last. It was delightful adventure through the heart fulfilling romance story.
Twists and turns in the Between Now And Always book made me constantly seat on the edge of anticipation and chasing after the pages for HEA of Beth and Carter's love story.
Heartbreaking cliffhanger at the end of book two left me awaiting impatiently to read next book so when it landed on my kindle, with trembling heart and hopeless romantic soul on the shoulder, I dove in.
Whole story has everything what I love to read about in book romance. Love, angst, suspense, secrets, betrayals, perfectly paced plot and incomparable chemistry between heroes. This story was addictive to the point that I couldn't put it down. Enthralled by the plot and mesmerized by beautiful Dylan Allen words I was absorbing it in almost one sitting.
It was emotional rollercoaster because with every chapter on author expressed different kind of emotions. It will take you from heart-wrenching moments, through tear-jerking until it'll make your mind swirl.
I was wondering how author will managed their complicated situation, which direction she will lead the plot and how long she'll keep us with bleeding hearts.
Beth and Carter changed a lot from the beginning of the story. It was so nice to see them grew stronger, more confident and constantly seeking truth against the cruel fate but their hearts remained the same. Even torn apart, they rised above adversity.
Oh and let me tell you, their chemistry was mind blowing. I could feel their never ending lust and desire through the pages.
I love Beth character, her big pure heart, her strength and courage and beautiful soul.
Carter made some mistakes but always kept Beth in his heart and like a Knight in shining armor was trying to protect her. I can assure you that this handsome musician with charming attitude and dirty mouth will steal your heart from the very first page.
It was an amazing experience to read such a deeply touching story. Whole Forever Trilogy grabbed my heart so hard that it'll stay with me forever.
Thank you Dylan Allen for taking me on this beautiful journey.

Dylan Allen nailed it with this conclusion to a beautiful love story. Beth and Carter’s journey was one full of twist, pain but most of all love. A love so powerful that had my heart twisted waiting for their HEA. After the cliffhanger on book 2 I wanted to scream because when was enough for this couple. So much that they have to endure. But also because of all that comes at them, there’s also so much growth. There’s moments in the story that I wanted to throw my kindle to the wall and scream( I did actually scream and posted about it). Some characters in here I wanted to strangle in book 1 and 2 but in book 3 I was ready to commit murder.
Beth Beth Beth!! This lady, this heroine,this Queen has shine so bright that’s there’s no way she can be brought down. After so much taken from her and all the sacrifices she had to endure I was ready to get inside my kindle and fight for her. Beth achievements as a talented artist, her inside out beauty, finally seen for herself her self worth and fighting for what she wants made me so proud.
Carter has also grown so much since Between Now and Forever. I love watching him become the man at the end of a very intense journey. If you though he was in love with Beth in book 1, in book 3 he is the most amazing man. Even hurting the way he did, Carter always put Beth’s happiness first. Watching them in an impossible situation for a moment there, broke me. I couldn’t phantom having the love of your life so close and knowing you can’t have her. It was definitely the worst knife through the heart.
“This is the beginning of a new us. This is the start of a new world. One where we learn to live without each other One where all we do is miss each other. Tied together, but pulled apart, And somehow this feels like just the start.”
I had tears in my eyes reading this part. I could feel the pain so deep. His music, his heart and the way he has always seen Beth is completely swoony. The passionate moments between this couple was scorching HOT. I was definitely fanning myself over some scenes in here. I love my macho alphas with dirty mouths and Carters was mm mm mm mmmmmmm, DELICIOUS.
Oh and guys there a lot of surprises in this book. I won’t tell you what it is but you will definitely love it. Grab this epic conclusion on January 6 and start your reading year with a BAM.
*** I voluntarily read and review an advance copy of this book.

Between Now and Always is the conclusion to Beth and Carter's love story. These two have been on a long, heartbreaking, and difficult journey and I was looking forward to their HEA. I had to read my highlights of book #2 because I have a bad memory. And I needed those to put all the pieces together, especially after all the twists and turns in the previous books. The big reveal in the last book had me on the edge of my seat to find out what was going on. My heart broke for both Beth and Carter, but I think Beth needed time to finally figure out who she really was. I was so proud of her accomplishments and the woman she had become in this book. She was finally free to do whatever she wanted and it was really great seeing her grow stronger and more fierce.
What I loved most about this book was the mystery and not knowing what was going to happen next. There were some things that I felt were rushed. I would've loved those scenes to be a bit longer and more detailed. Beth was definitely my favorite character, and Carter was a good guy, but there were some instances I wanted to hit him. The side characters were great, and I definitely hope for two of them to have their own story told by Dylan Allen (you'll know who I am talking about when you're done with this book). The Forever Trilogy was a beautiful, emotional, mysterious, and sexy contemporary romance. I am glad I went on this difficult but heartwarming journey with Beth and Carter.

Dylan Allen has done it again. She went straight for the heart with this angsty romance.
Beth and Carter’s story is more than just a chance meeting. It’s more than fate. They were DESTINED to be together. Their future was woven in the stars. Their story is one full of passion and love but also secrets and lies.
Dylan takes you for a ride with this angst filled story. It is not slow paced or calm. It’s in your face, packed with punches that will be sure to bring you to your knees.
Every corner turned reveals another lie, another truth, another secret. Allen pulls your heart strings with every page you turn.
This was the perfect ending to this fantastic trilogy. If you are just now starting out, please read book one and two in the trilogy before diving in. These books are not stand-alone stories and you will be missing CRUCIAL information if you go out of order.
Thank you Dylan, for taking me on a ride with Beth and Carter. Their story was one of a kind.

5 FOREVER STARS!! PERFECTION IS ALL I CAN SAY!! The ending for Beth and Carter's story was perfect. This trilogy had so many feels and I loved every moment of it. The Forever Trilogy is one of my favorites of all times. Dylan Allen gives us readers exactly what we love in a Romance story, love, sexiness and lots of angst. If you haven't started this trilogy start it now and binge read.

Empowering. Inspiring. Riveting. Climax , the last story in The Temptation Trilogy by Dylan Allen is all of the above and then some more. The fascinating and heartbreaking journey we started with Beth and Carter has come to an ending. And I am feeling extremely emotional. This story made my heart ache, break and elevate like never before. It was culmination of impossible yet relatable and breathtaking moments.
Dylan Allen made me go through heaven and hell. And I am not sure where to start about the story line as everything supposed to be a spoiler. We left Beth and Carter in an emotional mess in the previous book. Honestly my own heart split into two halves for this beautiful couple. So I was holding onto hope in this book. Beth and Carter has a lot to grow in this story. I have said from the first book that this trilogy is not only about love story of two people. This is loving self. Loving your flaws, embracing them, accepting them and make yourself a better person overall. Beth and Carter thought they cannot be together. But secrets will come out and everything will change as they establish themselves as artists. The corrupt, cruel and heartless people who hurt them will be brought to justice. And their love will emerge even stronger.
Beth has transformed to a butterfly from a caterpillar. She always had this silent strength and resilience in her. And this book shows her in an even brighter light. She is fighting for her freedom. She is getting over her insecurities and fears. And I could not have been prouder of her. Carter is probably my most favorite male character by Dylan Allen. The reason is she gave this gorgeous and charming man edge of broken heart and pain. My heart was crying for his heartache and indecisions and helplessness. They are both artists. And music and painting act as a conduit for their emotions. Their love is larger than life. Their love transcends time, space and every obstacle. Their chemistry gave me real goosebumps and tears. The twists and turns kept me on the edge of my seat because anything could happen anytime. The author put together the puzzle pieces beautifully and the fast paced intriguing story line was held together by impeccable writing.
Climax by Dylan Allen is one of those unforgettable and sensational stories I will get back to repeatedly. The words hold such immense power and captivating spirits. Be ready to get you heart shattered and then healed by Dylan Allen.

4 Total cluster stars!
Jeeeeesus!!! This was a ride🤦🏼♀️
Once again this made me so mad because the proofreading was horrendous! I mean, I don’t understand how an author can put out a book with this many typos and grammatical errors. It totally takes away from the book for me. This was worse than the first two👎🏻
If I was an author I think that would be more important to me than anything! I wouldn’t want to put out something that was less than perfect and as many folks that read a book before it goes to print you would think this would be fixed. This disappointed me so much. That said the plot twist, the angst and the epilogue saved this entire series for me.
Beth!!!!!!!! YAAAAASSSS! FINALLY got that backbone! I was so excited to see her really come full circle! She battled her demons she fought for those wings that set her free! She found out what family was really about! Her “family” needed to burn in the depths of hell😡they were a bunch of crazy mofos! This entire town was afraid of her father and they bowed down to him and his crazy ass mother and how they never got caught was beyond me! But when they went down they went down big!
Carter was such a hero! You couldn’t help but love him😍through all his mistakes he really was the best guy and he truly fell in love with Beth at first sight. Their love was so beautiful and saved them!
The secondary characters were fab! His brothers her brothers his sister his mom and her bff Porcha and Dina...they were rockstars!
The epilogues were great I wish we had gotten a look at their wedding but we can’t always get what we want 😂it was good nonetheless. It was 10 years later and that was wonderful.
This woman, she had been verbally and mentally and emotionally abused her entire life by these psychos and it’s a thousand wonders she didn’t end up as crazy as them. She was so much better than them and it took a man coming in and showing her what true love was all about for her to decide to take her life back. There is one scene in the book where she becomes the beautiful swan and I was so damn proud of her.
As a series it was good but it needed to have been polished up.

Between Now and Always wrecked me so hard. This book was beautifully written, heartbreaking and healing all at once. Carter's and Beth's relationship wasn't easy, and there were times where I questioned how the author would untangle the mess of their lives. But she did it flawlessly! This author will take you on a journey of highs and lows, ups and downs, and by the end, your heart will be mended. Thank God, because I wasn't sure how much more my fragile heart could take.
Even though this story was fiction, the characters felt real to me. From the very first page, I felt an instant connection to Beth and Carter. Beth's story was hard to read at times and the things she went through destroyed me. Thank god for Carter. He was everything I love to read about in a male hero. His love for her was selfless and it touched my heart in ways I never saw coming. He was exactly what Beth needed. And Beth, once she made it through all her family drama, it was obvious that she was always destined to be with Carter. Their love story, and everything they had to go through is why I read romance.
There aren't enough words to describe how well written this book is. This author slayed me with her writing.

This story! Holy crap! I’ve been in love with Beth and carter’s story from the very beginning and needed to know what happened. I could not put this book down and needed to know what happened. And I needed these two to have a happy ending! Boy did this book not disappoint! Ms. Allen, man she’s a genius and I LOVE LOVE LOVE this book and trilogy!!

I just don’t understand how you can put out a book with this many editing issues. Every page has an issue. Come on!
This is the third book in the trilogy and thank god it’s over! I didn’t quite enjoy this simply because of the absurdity of the story and the way OTT drama. The h is once again saying things that are counter to her actions. Putting this to rest. 1.5 stars.

BRAVO!!! Standing ovation to Dylan Allen. The series was epic. What a wild, unpredictable, and emotional ride with Beth and Carter, but the ending was everything. The perfect ending to a an epic love story. Writers rarely take you through the heartbreak and make you feel it to your core. This was such bravery from the author and it paid off. This series made me mad, sad, had me crying but when it was good, it was beautiful. Like the author says "this is not a fairy tale but it is a love story." And what a love story it is. In book 3, you see both our heroine and hero grow tremendously. Carter dirty talking, sexy a*s really fought for his woman. And Beth what a transformation not only did she glow up in her beauty, but she recognize that she is a Queen, she became a go getter, boss woman while still being the kind, loving person she has always been. I was rooting for them to overcome their incredible difficult odds in book 1&2 but book 3 made me loveeee them with such passion.
Carter will steal anyones heart. Their chemistry was palpable through Dylan beautiful words. Their love story will captivate you and their journey was worth every tear to see such amazing growth and strength from our 2 main characters.
Beth became a strong power house after all the hardship she had to overcome and she got her happily ever after with her sexy King. This series will make you literally want to throw your kindle away at times but when its good, it is sweet like honey. It is binge-worthy. Im jealous of everyone who gets to binge and uncover the secrets right away. That instant gratification can be so awesome.
If you love angst, drama, suspense, romance and an amazing journey to a true love story then this series is for you. 5 Amazing EPIC stars Dylan Allen.

This book was the perfect ending for Beth and Carter’s story. The author pulled no punches from the very beginning. I was on pins and needles waiting for this book. The first two books were a rollercoaster ride that felt like we were going up and down, but this one added so many twists I felt dizzy.
I loved that Beth finally decided to take charge of her life. I found her strong and even more beautiful. Her inner beauty touched so many people. I love that she didn’t let the past color how she saw the world. She made new friends, and can I just say, I loved Joe. There was something about him that you couldn’t help but love him.
Carter loved Beth from the beginning. He finally took some responsibility for his actions. He was still impulsive, but he was also our broody, sweet, and romantic man. He finally discovered who he was, and it settled him in a way.
I could spend the rest of the day carrying on about how these 3 books touched my heart. They made me think about inner beauty. How we should treat others. How I was completely shocked when the truth started coming to life. These books were beautifully written from the beginning to end. I would love to tell you everything about them, but that would spoil your fun. If you haven’t started this trilogy, WHAT are you waiting for? I will say you will cry, you will laugh, and you will need a fan because they are HOT! OH, and you will want to throw your kindle at the wall (Don’t do that lol). This story is worth the frustration and the tears. Now go read! ❤️

I was captivated and completely invested in these characters. The author took us on a journey with ultimate love, suspense and a hard earned forever. A fantastic conclusion to this epic love story!
Carter and Beth shared a love that could not be denied. The were forced apart, but their hearts remained devoted.
Beth will spread her wings and become who she was meant to be.
Carter will chase a dream and reach stardom with his beautiful music.
Their lives will go on separately. Then life will bring them back together. So many outside influences are working to keep them apart. There are an abundance of family secrets and finally you will uncover them all. To get their HEA, they will need to fight for it.
Once you get sucked in, you won’t be able to put this down. This story will keep you riveted because you won’t believe the twists. The characters each have their own tale to tell and you will love them all!
The author wrote so many memorable and poignant words that I won’t soon forget. A beautifully told love story that leaves a lasting impression. Now that the trilogy is complete it’s the perfect time to get your binge on!!! Beth and Carter are couple goals!!!

My heart.... my poor heart....
This epic conclusion was an emotional and angsty ride , to say the least. The author’s prose and storytelling was so compelling that I stopped breathing so many times, cried quite a few times and never thought I’ll have the strength to make it till the end. Yup! You know why? Because I was compelled from the very first page of the very first book, I was rooting for Beth and Carter and their story was unpredictable, tumultuous... a real page turner.
You want more than a HEA for them, you want them to have the brightest future possible and you want their love to conquer it all. Be prepared to be consumed by this story, to be completely absorbed and controlled by their passion.
I won’t spoil anything but you need to binge this series that will have a special place in your heart FOREVER.

Between Now and Always is the third book in the Forever series and the conclusion to Beth and Carter’s story.
If you are looking for a story that makes you feel all of the emotions then this is the series for you!
The raw emotions flying off the page made me stop and take a second to let it all sink in. Dylan Allen’s writing is beautiful and poignant and I love it. The character growth from book 1 to book 3 is phenomenal. I love reading books that have main characters with flaws and imperfections. It’s real, not everyone is perfect, not even in the fictional world.

This was a great ending to this trilogy! Dylan Allen really knows how to keep us guessing! I’ve been waiting for this last book to know how it all turned out with Carter and Beth and it was a perfect ending! This trilogy as a whole makes you think. I do wish the end of the book had made a full circle to the prologue of the first book. How many people went back to read the prologue after finishing this third book? I know I did! Another great book by Ms. Allen, with lots of steamy scenes and intrigue!

Between Now and Always was full of twists, turns, drama, betrayal, sexy times and so much more. While I enjoyed the conclusion to Carter and Beth's story I had a few issues mainly with Carter, the way he ran hot and cold irritated me so much so that I wanted to reach between the pages and shake him. However, it was awesome story that I definitely recommend.
