***Lily's Story: The Complete Saga books 1-4
4 stars
I purchased the boxset Lily's Story: The Complete Saga books 1-4 by Christine Kersey and this review was given freely.
A four part series based around familyless 20 year old college freshman Lily and the hardships she faces. Emotional and drama packed, this is a well balanced novel of lies,heartbreak, hope, friendship and a testament to inner strength.

*He Loves Me Not: book 1
5 stars
After her father dies,Lily starts college at age 20 hoping for the typical college experience but instead ends up in an abusive relationship isolated and pregnant. Emotional and drama packed, this is a well balanced novel of lies,heart break, hope, friendship and a testament to inner strength.

*Don’t Look Back: book 2
4 stars
Lily begins her new life in California including a dog, job, and a new love interest in ex-Marine Marcus only to found by Trevor. This is a complex and ever changing novel of deceit, fear, learning to be strong and protect oneself, and of blossoming love. Contains violence but the ending is happy.

The Realistic Nitty Gritty of Life

Thank you, Christine Kersey for this realistic novel about life after the wedding and honeymoon. These four books show the progression Lily went through from the scary life with an abusive husband to finding a man who was truly in love with her. Without giving the plot away be prepared that Marcus and Lily face some stressful challenges to their belief in each other. The characters are true to what Keresy has drawn them to be. The storyline is robust, realistic, yet hopeful.

Marcus really angered me throughout this whole thing. Him and his mother. His attitude toward Lily, his controlling-ness. I felt it was very narcissistic. I actually wanted to stop reading but won't let myself DNF a book so I pushed through. But I was not a fan of this book and thought the series could have really went without it, even if it does show true struggles of relationships.

This series is great reading. Would make a great TV program if Hollywood would honor the authors version. The themes are heartbreaking, dangerous, and exciting. I cried several times and rejoiced at the end. Highly recommended! Thank you for using Kindle unlimited.

Great ending to the series

This final book wrapped up all the loose ends between the characters. It is a great series with a great ending.

[Lily · Rating 2 out of 5]

Damn they nuked Marcus in this one. And Lily just went along with him; they didn’t even have a proper conversation of her actually venting

[Judith · Rating 4 out of 5]

The final story in a four book series about Lily, a woman whose life takes a number of strange twists and turns and whose heart is pulled in many directions before it is all over. She is also very young and perhaps I am most bothered by her reluctance to grow and mature. She exhibits amazing strength in difficult circumstances, and then seems to relapse into immaturity at odd times. And yet, perhaps she is more like all of us at times. Stress, indeed severe stress, does thrown many of us back to the primal level of reaction and it may be that this is the lesson this author is advancing. It is a fine read and I would recommend that readers avail themselves of the entire series.

I've read all of Lily's stories. They are absolutely amazing. Her story is amazing. I really hope that Christine Kersey keeps going with Lily's life. If you haven't read it, I strongly suggest it.
