The Match is the final book in the ‘London Prep’ series and I was equally excited to read it, but sad that it’s over. I’ve enjoyed Mallory and Noah’s romance so much, as well as the friend group with the two of them along with Harry and Mohammad.

The last book left us on a bit of a cliffhanger and the beginning of this one did not disappoint. I smiled so big throughout this story. This series has been so addictive and deliciously angsty in the best way. The story was great and the epilogue was satisfying! I highly recommend checking this series out if you haven’t!

I absolutely hate that this series is now done :( There were some ups and downs, but this specific book only had ups for me. The book kept giving me the things I wanted to happen more and more as it continued. I loved how it all came full circle, in every situation possible. I do wish there was a parent perspective in the last chapter, but I loved the ending. I had lots of smiles while reading the last book of London Prep

I loved this series but the last two?

I adored this series. I couldnt get enough but idk what it was about these last two. They were rushed they didnt feel like much effort was put in. We go through alll the drama of everyones lives and we finally get Noah and Mallory happy ever after and it was lacking. It just felt different from her other series. All in all good read, Im happy that we have the conclusion

The finale of the London Prep series by Jillian Dodd does not disappoint!  Following Noah's proposal the night of the party at the club, Mallory is feeling all the feels.  There's a whole future for her and her friends at Kensington.  Where will they go after graduation?  Will Noah be scouted for professional football (soccer)?  Will they stay together or go to schools and live far apart?

When I first began reading the London Prep series, I was surprised by the level of adult-like independence the main characters displayed.  In many ways, it made this series feel a bit more like a new adult series than a young adult series… except the characters are high school-aged.  I attributed this dynamic to Mrs. Dodd's research on schooling and social norms in England.  It didn't affect my love of the stories. Still, when Mallory learned of her parents' moving to London and keeping her at Kensington in a previous book, it made me wonder how her newly found independence would play out with her American parents around.

I was pleased to read about Mallory and her family finding a balance in their new lives. In book 8, The Club, it seemed like her relationship with her parents was filled with tension. I love how, in finding their footing, she finds comfort in her parents, and they, in turn, see how much their daughter has grown up in a very short amount of time.

Jillian Dodd also perfectly ties up her supporting characters' storylines as Mallory, Noah, and Harry cement their roles and relationships with each other.

Enjoy The Match!  Read the other eight books first.  You won't regret it!

Seppy's 5+ Star Review:⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️➕️


When book eight ended with that important question, I was mixed emotions and worried about Noah's and Mallory's HEA. What was Mallory's answer? What were everyone's reactions?  Can your first love be your last love? What about everyone else? Olivia, Naomi, Mohammad, and Harry; how does everything end for them?   I can't give anything away but that you will love this final book and feel all the same things.  This was just a window into an important life-changing moment in Mallory's life when she was a student exchange student and lived in Noah's sister's room. I loved the ride. 


I started reading this book, just wondering how Jillian Dodd was going to end this series. I absolutely loved this series! As I read the final pages, I had tears in my eyes and a smile on my face. I couldn't imagine another way to end this series. The ending of this series was bittersweet. I loved how everything turned out, it's perfect. If you haven't read this series, stop what you're doing and One Click this series or any of Jillian Dodd's books. Amazing books, every she knocks them out of the park!

I’m so happy right now! I couldn’t have asked for a better way for this series to end!

From the very beginning, going all the way back to when Mallory first arrived in London, this series has been a roller coaster of emotions. The timeline that these 9 books span isn’t even all that long, but each and every book was packed full of so much teenage emotion and drama. There were times when these kids seemed way above their age, and others when I thought “nope, they’re definitely teenagers”. lol. But throughout the entire series, I’ve loved watching them learn from their mistakes, grow closer, and make some pretty great memories together. And during this final book in particular, it was so wonderful to see everything slot in to place the way I was hoping it would for this young group of friends! Absolutely perfect!

I don’t usually like it when a great series ends, but I can honestly say I’m beyond satisfied with this ending! I’m happy. Content. I can walk away from this series with a smile on my face and my heart feeling full! ❤️

I needed this book. I do love a happily ever after, but generally speaking in most series, they are so short - almost an afterthought. This entire book was a lovely, light closure on a a beautiful romance. It was also the sweet story of true friendships that were bonded, nurtured and endured. From the moment I started the Match, the last in the London Prep series, I was catapulted to a place of happiness and truly the feeling lasted all the way to the end. I'm pretty certain I completed the book in one setting without realizing so much time had passed. And while I normally feel a sense of melancholy when a beloved series comes to an end, this one felt right. When everything in the world has been a drama filled nightmare - politics, hurricanes, world unrest, etc. this was just what I needed to get my headspace somewhere else. It also felt so different than any other author's work. It was unhurried, but not boring. It was the end. It was closure - in a new way I haven't seen. I immediately read it two more times so I could stay in the bubble.

The Match is the final book in the London Prep Series and as all last books go, I was sad to see it reach the end. For those of you who have read the series we finally get to see Mallory’s happy ever after. I think what really surprised me in this last book was the growth/ maturity development of the characters. It was a nice surprise seeing Harry get a happily ever after, as well as Olivia’s, Mohammad, and Naomi. Noah and Mallory exceeded all my hopes for them. From the first book through to the last book I am happy about how Mallory has grown. I finally feel good that Noah has the right person for him beside him. It was hard to write a review without giving spoilers. That is just how good Jillian Dodd is. As sad as a series is to end, I can’t wait to see what new series and characters lie await next. If you have not read the London Prep Series yet, you are missing out, go start it now!

Noah 😍
We've come full circle and I can't believe this was the last book in the London Prep series. It's been quite a ride but we made it! Happily Ever Afters for everyone.

The last installment was short and sweet. It covers the span of a few days and then the epilogue gives us a glimpse of the future. It was great to see how far Harry, Mohammad, Noah, Mallory, Olivia and Naomi have come. I finished this book with a smile on my face but was sad that it had come to an end.

Personally I would have liked to know how the dinner between the two families went but oh well. This book included sexy times, family dinners, Noah's soccer match and the Halloween party. Helen will always be my favorite!

Oh man , I had to take sometime to process the fact this series is over…
I have become so invested in Mallory and Noah’s story that the end hurts! Ha
With that being said , Jillian did what she knows how to do and pulls you in and makes you apart of the series. I read the book in a day because I couldn’t put it down.
The intensity between the couple is terrifying to me as a mom but I’m obsessed as a reader.
I love how we get to learn about Mallory friendships, more about her relationship with her parents ( who I didn’t love at first ! I mean who leaves their kid in another country!) , most ties come together and you get a peak into the future and I am still left wanting more!

I promise if you haven’t read the series you need to start! You won’t regret it!

Here we are after the long haul ❤️
Mallory, Noah, Harry and the gang are back!
This time around final choices will be made, but can they handle the having to choose!

Mallory is back at London prep with Noah, Harry and Muhammad.
The crew is getting ready to attend Olivia’s cohosted Halloween party.
School is in full swing, Noah is worried about soccer, Olivia is at her wits end with her parents,
Naomi and Mohammed are navigating how to be together.
Harry is coming to terms with everything that has transpired.
Mallory is stuck with the endless thoughts of how to choose what she wants……. Or who she wants!

I will Mallory give in a go back to Harry or with she put in the work to finally have a forever with Noah.

Everything good comes to an end….. but what will there fate be…….

We love a HEA
The thing that Jillian does better than almost everyone is a happily ever after. We love a HEA. However my one critique… more. I wanted more, more, and more. There was a lot of closed door moments and events I feel like were left out. I wish we got to see everything. This romance has been building for so long I just wanted every single little morsel I could get of it. I loved the nostalgic feeling this brought back of your first love or your first serious love and the anxiety and unknown of the whole thing. Gave me the warm fuzzies. I hope this is not the end for Mallory and Noah and we get a cute little spinoff of what they will be like as adults. (You know you want to Jillian ;) )

I have loved this series so much and grown attached to Mallory, Noah, Mohammed and Harry. It took me back to high school reading about first loves, parents going through divorce, girl drama and planning for college/the future! While I’m sad it’s come to an end, I loved the way Jillian wrapped up everyone’s storylines. I loved that they ended up visiting NYC and what happened for Mallory 🥰 Truly hope maybe Jillian gets a wild hare to write books about their kids like she is doing for That Boy! This book will take you through all the emotions and wrap up the story perfectly! Jillian, thank you for helping us fall in love with London and these characters! Would love a wedding epilogue one day! 😉

A bittersweet ending to the London Prep series. Jillian provides the answers to the questions we asked, brings together the perfect couples, and turns up the heat.
This book is full of big questions with big answers, soapy shower time, soccer lunches, hot dates, scouts, costumes, dance floor, “exploring”, dad drama and dad dates, emotional realizations, morning cuddles, coffee talks, and beautiful fountains.
I’m sad to say good bye to this crew but if we know Jillian at all, characters tend to make cameos in other series. I vote yes! Thanks Jillian for this wonderful series with our favorite boys club!

The bittersweet feeling of saying goodbye to your favorite characters in a series but you are so happy for the ending and can still smile at the past storylines and how it all led here… haaa I still remember when I read book 1 The Exchange… and now book 9 The Match! London Prep has been one roller coaster ride of drama, humor and love that I won’t forget and I look forward to re-reading soon! Yes! What a great series and inspiration for when I travel to London! 😉 If you are looking for a series that will draw you in and take you on an epic journey, well grab this series! Thank you Jillian for a story well told! 🙏🏽

This is a no spoiler review

Wow… I don’t even know where to begin. I feel like I can’t even get the right words.

To prepare for this last book of the series, I did a re read and the last book left us with a Jillian special cliff hanger with us all wanting to know the answer to a very important question.

I loved seeing the growth of these characters and getting to be so deep in the book that everything around you disappeared.

That is exactly how I felt reading this. I felt happy and cried happy tears at the end.

I love how the stories wrap up. It wrapped up so nicely and you most definitely won’t be disappointed.

I guess it’s finally time to say goodbye to London Prep.
This book was the perfect ending to a beautiful series.
It has been amazing watching Mallory, Noah, Harry, Mohammad, Olivia & Naomi grow throughout the series.
This series is full of friendship, love, and growth.
Jillian Dodd has beautifully captured the essence of young love and friendship in London Prep.

Memorable Moments
❤️ Excitement. Fear. Bliss. Love.
❤️ He’s my past, my present, and my future, all wrapped up in one beautiful body. In one beautiful boy.
❤️ Can take the girl out of America, but you can’t take the American out of the girl.

Jillian Dodd does it best. Creating an immersive world and making you wish you were there is an art and she does it so well. After going back to the world of London Prep one last time for this series finale, we pick up where Book 8 left off (quite a cliffhanger - in case you needed a reminder). Watching the rest of the story fall into place, and seeing how much the characters have grown throughout this series makes for the perfect end to a wonderful adventure. Noah, Mallory, Harry, Mohammad, Naomi, and Olivia have all come so far since we first met them. Jillian wrapped the story up well and gave us a fantastic goodbye to the characters we’ve grown to love.

After 8 books we are finally at the end of the London Prep series. While not nearly as long as the others in the series, it ties up loose ends and brings everything to a satisfying conclusion. It’s the book that fans of the series have been waiting for. 🫶🏻
Noah, Mallory, Harry and Mohammad are back (along with Naomi and Olivia) for a quick read that will leave fans of the series happy. No Jillian Dodd cliffhanger this time around 😉😂
If you are a fan of the other 8 books in this series be sure you read this one to see how everything gets wrapped up. ♥️💙

The Match is the final book in the London Prep series by Jillian Dodd and it was amazing!!
The story begins right where The Club ended with that jaw dropping cliffhanger! The Match had me full of butterflies as I cheered hard for Noah and Mallory’s love story. I have loved watching Noah and Mallory’s special connection grow throughout the series. They have a solid friend circle that is so supportive of each other and Jillian wrapped everything up nicely. I would love to see future glimpses of their lives and catch up with the group in college and special life occasions *wink wink*!!

I feel like I have been waiting forever for this book after the way that we left off in book 8! Speculating about how this series will end has kept me awake, and I devoured this book. Mal has grown so much since we met her in book 1, and her group of friends is truly a family. The Match was a fun, feel-good, emotional story and I lived for every moment. Every character that I loved throughout the series got their due in this book, and it all came together perfectly. I will absolutely be doing a re-read of the series soon!

I didnt want to read this book. I knew that this would be the end. The last time I would smile at something cheesy Mohammad would say, be surprised by Harry and blush when Noah spoke about his love for Mallory.

This series has taken me over. Every detail of scenery to the relationships Mallory has with everyone.

I constantly am wishing to be in a cottage in London. At times Jillian has described the atmosphere so perfect I think I am there.

This book was the perfect way to end the London Prep series. Hopefully just for now!

To say that I loved the London Prep series is truly an understatement. I have never read a final book in a series that so perfectly encapsulates the main characters. There were big things happening in this book, picking right up with the cliffhanger from "The Club" and continuing all the way to the end. I have loved watching all of the characters growth and development throughout the series (especially Mallory and Noah) but could not have asked for a better happily ever after. After all, those are what Jillian does best! ❤️

Will they live happily ever after?

Mal and Noah are blissfully in love, and he’s asked her to marry him! But they are so young. What will people think? Can they keep it hidden? What about their parents? Their friends?

Will their friends also find happiness?


Read the final book in the series to find out!!! It’s the happily ever after we’ve been waiting for!

I loved seeing Noah and Mal so happy! They are so cute! And I’m happy their friends have found their version of happy. It’s the perfect ending to the series!

The last book in the London Prep series is here. Yes I hate to see it come to an end but oh what a series it was. If you haven’t read any of the series, now is the time. You can read it and go from book to book without having to wait for the next book to be released. This book brings everything full circle. Yes you get HEA’s, angsts, fun and laughs and who doesn’t want all of that in a book. This is one of my favorite series by Jillian Dodd and I recommend you read it. I promise you won’t be disappointed.

Perfect ending to the perfect series. I loved it everything about this book. You got The Boys Club, Mallory with the girls, Mallory and Noah, the boys all having realizations, and the group growing up. It reminds you of high school- when you start to realize what really matters, start maturing, and stop being “so impulsive.” Now, can we get London Prep: The College Years? Cause even though it was the perfect ending, these characters live rent free in my mind and I still want to know what happens next!!

What a perfect end to an amazing series! I am so sad that it is over, I am going to definitely miss these characters. Jillian writes in such a way, that the characters become a part of you, and feel so real that you almost want to have them be apart of your life. I never believed in "Book Boyfriends" until I read the Keatyn Chronicles! Mallory and her friend group are sure to be missed, but I am thankful that they all got the ending they deserved! Here's to hoping to see them pop up in other Jillian Dodd books in the future!

A beautiful conclusion to an addictive series.

I loved getting to see Mal and Noah’s story conclude as a happily for now story. They’re both so young that it’s great knowing there is potential for seeing where they end up in the future. I was also so happy to see Harry and Mohammad get a satisfying ending too. They’re all off on their next adventure as young adults and I’m crossing my fingers I get to see them in future books.

What a wonderful conclusion to the London Prep story!

QUICK THOUGHTS:
🇬🇧 Mal and Noah’s relationship is just so wonderfully sweet. I loved reading about their love.
🇬🇧 These characters have grown up so much since the first book of this series. Is there still drama? Of course! But these characters handle it much better.
🇬🇧 Through all the drama and uncertainty, our characters found their much-deserved HEA. And I couldn’t stop smiling. 🩷

Thanks so much to Jillian Dodd for the ARC of this book!
