Forever to Fall (Buckeye Falls Book 5) by Libby Kay – Review by M Policicchio

Forever to Fall by Libby Kay
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Mallory got her own book!! Okay, so Mallory has been in love with one boy since forever. She can’t remember a time when she didn’t love him in some way. At first, when they were kids, it was in a friend/brother way. Then somewhere along the way, it became more. Her favorite childhood memory is fake marrying Beckett Fox when she was 13. This memory has everything. Her brother, Beckett, her grandma’s ring, and her first kiss after they said “I do”.

Beckett just lost his grandfather. Two years before that, his grandmother. They have been everything to him since his parent’s divorce when he was 8. His mom went to Boston to start a new life with her new husband, and eventually new family. His dad went west to California. Beckett’s grandparents were everything. Now, he is kinda lost. There are two things he is thankful for in this world, that his job is remote which allows him to travel and find what he is looking for, and the Lawsons. Evan Lawson has been his best friend since practically the crib. Then there is Mallory.

Beckett and Mallory have been friends. They have tried to be more than friends. Beckett can’t work up the nerve to tell Evan that he loves Mallory. Everytime Evan thinks Beckett needs to go to the city to meet some girls, Beckett follows along because he can’t hurt his best friend, leaving Mallory hurt in the wake. Beckett has moved to Buckeye Falls to be close to Evan and because it hurts too much to be out at the family farm without his grandfather. That means that he will see Mallory, be around Mallory, have to interact with Mallory. Neither Beckett or Mallory is ready for that.

The only roadblock standing in their way is Beckett’s inability to tell Evan. Evan is so blissfully in love with CeCe and doesn’t see what everyone else sees, that Mallory and Beckett are in love. Evan is focused on his proposal and then engagement and wedding. Beckett fights himself to keep his found family while fighting for the love of his life. Will Evan ever be able to accept Beckett and Mallory together?

I still love these characters. The sibling banter between Evan, Mallory and Emily is sooooo very true to life. I swear I have said something similar to my sisters at some point, especially when I am right. 😂 I don’t know who else in the town needs to find love, but I hope there is someone because I don’t know if I am ready to say goodbye to these characters. They are just wonderful and awesome. You don’t have to read the entire series, but read about Mallory and Beckett. I totally encourage you to read the series. It rocks.
