Follow the lives and loves of those who work at Captive

Riley Johnson — Captive Films’ CEO and millionaire playboy is hot, privileged, and seriously single. He’s got it all—a brand new jet, exotic cars, a luxury penthouse, and a different aspiring actress (or two) in his bed every night. His life is perfect until the only girl he ever loved walks back into it, causing him to wonder if he truly has it all.

Keatyn Douglas — Hollywood’s sweetheart and owner of Captive Films leads a chaotic, glamorous life. But running a successful film studio, writing scripts, and her own acting career leave little time for the things she dreams of, like marrying the man she loves and having babies. When drama starts at work, she may decide to give it all up for life out of the fast lane.

Dawson Johnson — The dark and dreamy marketing consultant joins Captive to escape his past. For the last two years, his sole focus has been on caring for his adorable daughters after tragedy struck their lives. He comes to Captive looking for a fresh start and, if all goes well, he might find a lot more than that in Hollywood.

Knox Daniels — Considered the sexiest man alive by a certain magazine, the sentiment is echoed by the actor’s adoring fans. While romance abounds in the roles he plays, he’s convinced he’ll never find his own happily ever after—until he meets a woman who just might change that.

Shelby Benson — The beautiful cocktail waitress and wanna-be actress struggles to make ends meet. A chance encounter with Riley Johnson is her lucky break and the golden ticket to everything she’s ever dreamed of—fame, power, money, sex, and love.

Written soap-opera style with multiple points of view, you can expect lots of drama, sex, and tabloid-worthy events.

“When you surround yourself with the people you love, great things can happen.”

I remember reading Stalk Me over 5 years ago when it was first released. I was enamored with Keatyn Douglas and I couldn’t wait for more of her. With each book, I loved these characters more. I’ve watched them grow from high schoolers, to adults with their own families. It’s bittersweet to see a series you love so dearly come to an end, but I think Jillian ended these books in a fantastic way!

This book follows Keatyn and Aiden, Riley, Dawson, Dallas, Vanessa, Knox, and a slue of other characters. IFLY Keatyn and Aiden and I love reading about them, but what I loved most about this is that my boy, Riley was redeemed. The last few books I was questioning his character and the man he became, but it’s safe to say I love him again!

These stories have lots of drama, but they also have lots of heart. Love, especially, was a heartfelt story. I feel like everyone got the ending they needed, and you get closure. I fell in love with these characters all over again.

If I had to choose one word to describe these stories I would use the word ADDICTIVE. Once you start them, you won’t want to stop. I love these books so much and I highly recommend them! As sad as I am they’re over, theres always re-reads! Love is a wonderful ending to a beloved series of mine! It’s fun, emotional, sexy, and I loved it!!!

OMG, after finishing reading this I had tears running down my cheeks. My journey with Keatyn and her Moonboy began in March 2013 and I am so sad that it is now over and overwhelmed with happiness all at once. What a way to go out though, I loved every moment of this final journey and the entire series - 12 books!

These are such indulgent reads, the characters live rich, and at times, very opulent lives where money is never an issue. However, they are all so very down to earth and value their friendships and personal relationships above anything else. Love is everything <3

Jillian covers off every couple and every storyline in this final book ad she does it well - there will be no questions left unanswered. So I am left with a bittersweet feeling and seriously considering a series re-read as I reflect back on how these characters have grown from their teenage adolescent years into adults who are married and in some cases have children of their own. We have all been along for the ride with them through love, broken hearts, sorrow, tragedy, fear and the unbreakable bond between them all.

I still cannot believe this is the end and I will wish on a star that Jillian will one day feed me another small morsel, just so I can check in on the characters lives :-)

Jillian Dodd we love you for bringing such fantastic characters to life with your wonderful writing talent #ifly #moonboy #divinechaos #sortalikefate#hardtosaygoodbye

A perfect conclusion to a memorable series…

It's the end of the road and what a journey it's been. There have been highs and lows, laughter and tears but every heartfelt moment was 100% worth it. From Keatyn first kicking that football to the gang growing into adults, I have so many fond memories from the Keatyn Chronicles that I could wax lyrical for hours, but I won't!



I think that the author actually managed to incorporate every one of my favourite characters into this conclusion, somehow, and I really appreciated that.

So, it's the end of the road for the Keatyn Chronicles and Hollywood Love. What the ride worth it? Absolutely! Would I read the series again? Hell yes! Will I miss everyone that I hold dear in this series? Definitely!

So, all in all this was a memorable series and one that I will continue to have found memories off from years to come, but there is one last question which I must answer……… who was my favourite character?

This series has been such a huge part of my life over the last 5 years, that I wasn't ready to let go. It was hard for me to say goodbye, so much so, that I had tears streaming down my face as I read the very last sentence.

This book was everything. All the feels. All the joy. All the love. All the glee. I loved how everything wrapped up with a pretty little bow. Seriously, I was worried after devoting so many years to this series and falling madly in love with the characters (especially Aiden <3 ), things may have been a little wonky. But nope, that didn't happen. I got everything I could have ever wanted with this series finale.

If you have yet to read this series, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE, start with Stalk Me. That is book one in this amazeballs series. You start there and make your way to Love (bk 12), and understand my mad obsession with these characters and books. Author Jillian Dodd kills it with these characters. Every single one of them have an integral role in this series. Overall, this book was legit phenom! I am so happy that I was able to take this journey with each and everyone of these characters. Love gets all the STARS!! The whole series, also gets all the STARS!!

Sigh.... this series.... It feels like I grew up reading the Keatyn Chronicles and I cannot believe the series has come to a close with the final twelfth book, Love. YES TWELVE!!! I so loved every single one of them. It's so bitter sweet as we started the the gang way back when they are in high school and now they are adults. Where does the time go! I know I know... its only books... but I've invested YEARS into knowing these characters and I'm a little sad we won't be getting any more from them? Maybe Ms Dodd can drop a holiday novella every so often?? hint.. hint... lol.

If you've not read this series, you MUST start them! This entire series is a HUGE 5 star read and one i would so highly recommend! There are just so many magical moments and I have to say THANK YOU to Jillian Dodd for bringing us these amazing crazy stories!!! #ifly #KCAddicts4Life #fourleafclovers #sortalikefate #boots #hottiegods #eastbrooke #truelove #wishonthemoon #sunsetselfie #thekeatynchronicles<3 #topof theeiffletowersunset Those say it all!!

I loved Keatyn and Aiden! I even fall in love with Camden! Okay, fine there actually wasn’t a character in this book that I didn’t like!

Riley was still a hard character for me to like but he did change in this book. I just wish I got to see more of him changing and his growth.

I feel like we got to see more of the Johnson brothers in this book and I loved it!! It was some fun times with them all.

Knox really grew on me in this book also! He is so over the top but he is one of the most loyal guys! He’s a guy that every girl wishes she had by her side.

I want to say that I thoroughly enjoyed this book. But I was a tad disappointed also. I really wanted to see more Riley and Ariela.

4.5 out of 5 stars

I have to admit as soon as I got notification this installment was loaded onto my kindle I wasted zero time sitting down and diving right in. I loved it! Seriously, it was a very well written, fun, happily ever after for ALL of our favorite and even not so favorite characters. I even found myself smiling and enjoying the conclusion to Shelby's story line and for the last several books I pretty much hated her!

We have watched Keatyn and her friends grow and mature. We've been there through all their ups and downs, good decisions and all their really horrible ones. I've enjoyed every single page of this series and I'm genuinely sad it's over.

Love is more than just a romantic feeling between two people, it's also found in the bond between family and friends, especially when those friends are as close if not closer than family. It's all encompassing. It's sacrifice and selfless. Sometimes it's big gestures and other times is the every day small details and this book captures them all. I think it's why I've constantly gotten sucked in and can never put the books down until I've read to the end.

Yes I wish we could have seen a little bit more of Riley's HEA but I also think we got enough and can you our imaginations to fill in the rest because we know him so well! The Keatyn Chronicles will probably also be one of my most favorite guilty pleasures and I encourage everyone to let themselves get sucked into this incredibly fun and addicting series!

Summary of the whole series...

Here goes...I absolutely love this whole series...from the first book about Keatyn to the last book that ended with Riley. It has been such a joy to read them all starting in high school and ending with the gang as adults and having kids of their own. It reminds me about how time flies. The author Jillian Dodd did a wonderful job creating this series, along with the clothes and even the music. Its a great series and it deserves the 5 stars I am giving it.

Love (Keatyn Chronicles #12) by Jillian Dodd
4 stars!!!

“Even Keats speaks of chaos.
There is nothing stable in the world; uproar’s your only music.”


This review is incredibly bittersweet. I have been an avid fan of this series for over five years, I began my journey with these characters back in 2012 and have seen them morph from teens trying the find their place in the world to adults embracing love and starting families. I feel like their mum as I have watched them grow and am now gutted that my time with them has come to an end. Love, is the final book in the Keatyn Chronicles series and Jillian Dodd gives them a worthy send off. The Keatyn Chronicles has been one heck of a drama filled ride, written like a soap opera, Jillian Dodd ties everything up neatly, but please excuse me while I go and grieve.

“…love is the ultimate luxury, and I want to wrap myself in our love and wear it forever.”


This book continues to follow Keatyn, Aiden, Riley, Dawson, Dallas, Knox, Vanessa, Ariela et al on the final leg of their journey. Keatyn and Aiden were well on the way to their happy ever after, but for the others, there were still a few balls to juggle. Riley has been the source of my biggest grievance throughout the last few books, it seems he just didn’t want to grow up and while in this book some of the decision making was taken away from him, he had already battled through his own thoughts and feelings to finally man up and take the reins, he was somewhat redeemed.

“Having sex is like playing cards. If you don’t have a good partner, you damn well better have a good hand.”


This book though was all about family and Jillian Dodd really brought her characters their happy ever after while surrounded by the love that matters the most, family and of course friends. Even though these characters have been friends since school, they have morphed into their own family and everyone had each other’s backs. Decisions are made with everyone else in mind and whether that is true in the real world, didn’t matter, because this was Keatyn’s world and only the best made it through.

“…when you surround yourself with the people you love, great things can happen.”


This was the perfect fairy-tale ending and while in all probability someone should have failed, I was glad they all got what they wanted, what they deserved and what mattered to them the most. Albeit I was a bit peeved that one character seemingly did a complete one-eighty even though I thought she was completely irredeemable. But alas, I hope karma bites her on the ass in the future that I have lined up for her in my head.

“…it’s not where you’ve been that matters; it’s where you end up that does.”


Alas, I had tears by the end as my time with them came to a close. It has been one heck of a ride, I have become a fictional grandma multiple times, I have been at multiple weddings, award ceremonies and even a funeral. But what I will take away the most is the life that I have lived vicariously through these characters, where money is no object, fashion is rife and failure is never an option. #ifly

Wow! Wow! Just... WOW! I can’t believe this is the end of the beloved journey of Keatyn and her friends.

If you’ve been with this series from the beginning, or even started out late, or are thinking about starting, don’t hesitate. This series is the one series you can read over and over and still want to read it one more time.

This is the last book in the spin off series of the Keaton Chronicles, and although it’s a sad day to realize this, this book gives you the best happy ending and closure that you could dream of.

This book follows directly after Sex with Venessa and Dawson having a child and awaiting the impending doom of Whitney’s Memorial put on ever year by her parents, Aiden and Keatyn are on there honeymoon after a fabulous wedding where K told Aiden she was having triplets on a Farris wheel, Knox and Katie have just married after Knox’s perfect and over the top proposal- BACHELOR STYLE!!!- but you also get a side to Riley, Shelby, and Ariela that you wouldn’t expect.

Riley is between Shelby and Ariela right now and trying to decide what to do with the women he has always loved now that she is getting a divorce and his baby mama Shelby who he is supporting all because he wants to be apart of his child’s life. In Sex, you see Shelby on the yacht with Bam after a night in the bedroom and talking on the boat about all their mistakes.

As time goes on in this book, you start to understand the characters you thought you didn’t like- and may still not like- and you get the happy endings you have been wishing for for all the K team!

What will happen with the Riley love/lust triangle?

What will Vanessa and Dawes do about their unexpected child and dealing with Dawes’ girl’s opinions?

What will Aiden and K name their three triplets and will they keep working? Will K keep acting and writing scripts with the lovable Knox?

Will Katie and Knox continue to party like newlyweds or settle down and start a family? Will Knox keep acting?

Will something come of Bam and Shelby? Or will they just be a one night stand in luxury?

If something does come of Bam and Shelby, will Vanessa be furious? Will Riley finally discover the truth about Shelby’s baby lies?

Read this amazing book to find out! It all comes to a head with this release!

After reading, my heart felt full. I was smiling and laughing and thinking about shedding some tears because I’m so happy and yet sad for the end. But, thank goodness Jillian is writing because she understands the need for a good epilogue so her fans feel satisfied.

I was not persuaded or bribed to read this ARC or post this stellar review and volunteered of my own volition. Thanks again so much for the opportunity!

Love is the last book of the Keatyn Chronicles and I so wasn’t ready for I️t to end. I️t has been 3 years since the first book came out and I️t feels like yesterday. I downloaded the first book Stalk Me around two and a half years ago for a long road trip. The book was in the top 100 of iBooks and I thought why not? The book was free and the description sounded good. I ended up not even reading during my vacation. A week or so later, I was wanting to read something and decided to start I️t. Little did I know, I would be ruined for ALL books and series after. Nothing and I mean NOTHING compares to the Keatyn Chronicles! I have been addicted ever since. I read the first five books then next following days and finished right in time for the sixth book release (Hate Me). I then joined the KC Addicts Facebook group and became even more addicted! I️t was a great way to communicate with people who were feeling the same “pain” I was. #TeamAiden ALWAYS!
The way Jillian wrote the books was just so amazing and felt like you were there. That you were friends with the characters. She made a “world” that you wanted to live in. Thank you Jillian for making my forever fantasy!
Love is a wonderful ending to the the amazing series! Everything is so perfect... well I’m not a fan of Shelby so I guess not that perfect. And “sorta” a spoiler.... the triplets! Omg! The names... I want three kids just to steal the names! The book also showed how amazing each character really was. Throughout the series, I wasn’t a fan of Camden but during this book, I fell in love with him! There’s one line in the book, that is seriously the sweetest thing (behind Aiden). I am so sad to see this series end! Thank you Jillian for writing this AMAZING series... please write more! I need I️t! We all NEED I️t!
PS: Sonoma County, well Santa Rosa, is my hometown and I LOVE that that is where some of the characters end up. I️t will always be my home and I love how Jillian wrote about I️t in the books. Thank you Aiden for wanting a winery haha and every time I’m home I always want to go “find” them and drive through wondering which property would be theirs. Also last month, Sonoma County went through the horrible fires that took out thousands of homes, stores, wineries and land. Many of my friends and even some of my family lost all of their possessions. I️t truly heartbreaking to see. But thank you Jillian for sending this book and making me remember what a beautiful place I️t is! #sonomacountystrong

BUY THIS SERIES! LITERALLY THE BEST EVERRRR!

Just like the title states I loved it. I can't believe its over, want to scream and cry knowing that its done. No more Keatyn and their crew. We read from the beginning from their teens to their grown up lives and how they have changed over time. A book series I am thankful that I randomly stumbled upon. I recommend if you haven't started it, you should. Jillian Dodd is an author, who's work is unlike any other. You won't regret reading anything written by her.



****🍀******🗼*****🌆****🌙******
Athough from the beginning I saw Shelby as the villian and at the end, I end up kind liking her which a weird twist. Glad she found true love with Bam. Love the names for Keatyn and Aiden's children. Love that there were so many spontaneous marriages and how everything was simple but filled with so much love from friends and family. I extremely found the pov from the blog writer especially the part where she tried to clean knox up and copping a feel at the same time. Keatyn and Knox's speeches were so heartfelt. Especially Knox's expression when he announced he was to soo become a father. Was sad with the memory imput of Brooklyn, but loved that Keatyn would never forget him and their love.🌊 Love that Vanessa and Dawson's relationship was compared to his grandparents and told that it would last.💍 Now with Riley and Ariela's relationship I expected maybe a little more at the beginning, then thought no because they had to reaquante themselves with each other and start from scratch. Now to eat a bucket of ice cream and cry knowing no more moon boy or lucky charms, or on top of the Eiffel tower sunsets. #ifly #🍀 #Johnsonbros. 💒👣

In the final book of the Keatyn Chronicles, we have some closure for all of our favorite characters. Riley Johnson, CEO at Captive Films is torn between the mother of his unborn child Shelby and his high school sweetheart Ariela. Who will he choose? Keatyn and Aiden have just been married and are starting a family but does their future hold more blockbuster hits or does she need a change? Knox has married and settled down but he’d like to explore different types of movie roles. Dawson Johnson has just begun dating Vanessa but unexpected news has the two jumping in with both feet. Shelby met Bam at the hotel and the two have seemed to hit it off. Will the cocktail waitress finally have found the man of her dreams?

“Keatyn rubs the top of my hand, and it makes me feel stronger. She can do that. Sometimes, Dallas gives me a hard time, but Keatyn is the opposite. I guess maybe she’s been through enough that she’s more understanding. Less demanding. More like she’d help guide me down the right path. And I wish she would. I wish someone would just decide for me. Someone who knows what my right path is. If I take the risk I want more than anything to take, it’s going to be difficult. It’s going to test me. And, even though Ariela is what I wished for, what I want, I’m afraid I’m not up for the challenge.”

I fell in love with each character from the Keatyn Chronicles all over again. Riley was much more appealing in this final book and not just acting on impulse. I feel like Keatyn and Dawson helped him to see that perhaps it was time for Riley to decide if he wanted to settle down. I just wanted Ariela to be strong. She may love Riley but I wanted her to also focus on what she needed in life in her career and shutting the door on her marriage. Shelby…OMG! That girl is a trip! She actually has a lot of street smarts and Bam is right up her alley. Those two combined with Bam’s family can definitely keep her on her toes! Dawson and Vanessa just made me tear up. Their reconnection just seemed like fate and I was thrilled how it all played out. And Keatyn…she just makes me smile. I love her relationship with Aiden. The sweetness of their family just bubbles over and makes me giddy. This was just a great wrap up to a wonderful series. When the book ended, I found myself smiling and in a great mood.

If you’ve been a Keatyn Chronicles junkie, this is definitely the right way to wrap up your addiction. I’ve been on this road since 2012 with all sorts of swerves and bumps in Keatyn’s life. I wouldn’t have missed one little thing.

So I got to the end of the Keatyn Chronicles. The firs 7 books were when she was a teenager, bounced between several love interests and had a creepy stalker. I don't know what it was about these books, but I sure had fun reading them. We had teens who acted like teens (I love him, I don't love him, I love someone else yada yada). They are all exceptionally wealthy, so lots of descriptions about designer clothes, accessories and hot cars. The next 5 books were 10 years later. All of the characters got paired up. By book 12, the stories seemed a little 'phoned in'. A little coincidental that most of the characters instantly knew they had met 'the one' and had to get married right away. I think in some alternate universe I would be rolling my eyes and saying this is all a little too unbelievable, but for some reason, I couldn't stop reading these!! The snippets of each character were like a little soap opera episode and I just ate it up! No idea why I had to hurry up and find out what happens next, even if I didn't like the outcome. (I didn't like Shelby at all......I didn't agree with Riley and Ariela, but hey who am I to stand in the way of true love?)
Overall I give it all 3 stars because I liked it. :-)

A brilliant end to an amazing series. I have loved every word in the Keatyn Chronicles books and never wanted them to end. I could continue to read these books for life.

Like the company name, these books have held me Captive throughout and made me fall in love with every one of the characters involved (but one, Shelby haha). You have watch them grow, have their hearts broken, fall in love and everything in between.

Always written so beautifully, Jillian has a way with words and knows how to keep her reader happy. The fact that this series is written like a soap opera keeps you hooked and on the edge of your seats.

I felt every emotion while reading Love. I cried like a baby a few times, especially when I was coming towards the end. You can’t help but be proud of these characters, they have all overcome so much and I’ve loved every second of the roller coaster I was on with them.

I hope one day we get a little more from these guys!

Installment 12 of the Keatyn Chronicles, LOVE, is action packed. There is plenty happening in every ones lives. Mostly good. Definitely got the soap opera feel from this one.

Keatyn and Aiden are adorable as always and are the driving force of this series. Keatyn keep me coming back reading each book with excitement.

All the Johnson boys are lovable and I have enjoyed watching them grow up and find their soul mates. This has been a wonderful journey with Jillian Dodd's host of high school students finding their way in the world.

I grew to love Knox Daniels. He was cocky and arrogant starting out but turned out to be a great guy and good friend to the group.

The News Flash articles are something I look forward to in the books. They read like real gossip column report and always make me laugh.

I will miss all the Keatyn Chronicle crew but have enjoyed the journey with them. Thanks Jillian for an entertaining series that I have truly enjoyed.

I was gifted an ARC for an honest review.

It took me a while to bring myself to read this book, and I still haven't completely accepted the fact that this is the last one in The Keatyn Chronicles. I think I'm still slowly going through the stages of grief now that I'm done. After I finally brought myself to start reading, I never wanted the story to end. This book was an emotional roller-coaster for me. I cried and I laughed throughout the entire book. I will admit that I still have questions about some of our other beloved characters, but what Jillian has written was breathtaking in itself. I couldn't have asked for a better series to read or for a better group of characters to have grown close to. Keatyn and her friends were such a large part of my life over the past few years. A huge thank you to Jillian Dodd, for giving us such amazing characters to grow with and love over the last several years. The entire series is a must-read, and this book is a great finish to an amazing series.

This final book was everything I could hope for. I laughed, I cried (sad and happy tears), I swooned, and I fell in love with these characters all over again. We get just the right amount of every character in this book. All of our questions are answered and we get closure for everyone. It was the perfect ending to an amazing series.

After each book, that left us with a huge book hangover I needed and couldn't wait for the next installment. Now having finished Love I can't believe it's over and wish I could go all the way back to the beginning. These characters have been a part of my life for the last 4 years. You can't help but become emotional invested in them and their stories. I'm just so glad Jillian wrote the Keatyn Chronicles & Hollywood Love Series and brought these characters into our lives. I can't wait to see what's next.

I can't believe this is the end. I've been on this journey with these characters since the beginning of this series. If you haven't jumped on the train yet, I'm not sure what you're waiting for? The characters become a part of you and the story is pure entertainment. From the clothes to the locations and adventures they end up having - you really can't go wrong. This book has me feeling bittersweet. I am on a sweetness high with a little bit of the bitterness that it's over. It's like losing your best friend or moving away from a small town you've been raised in for years and years. Like being ripped from your circle of friendship. From Stalk Me to Love..... the journey was amazing. Thank you Jillian, for giving us a fantasy world full of twists and turns and lots of sweetness in the mix.

It’s almost u real that this is the end of this series. It’s been a large part of my reading world for 5 years. However final the ending is, Jillian Dodd has wrapped up the lives of these characters in a beautiful and satisfying finale. Riley is a character that I loved as a teen but in his adulthood I found he had Rosina to the hights of maturity I had seen in him, but finally he rose to and exceeded my expectations. The part of this book that I loved the most is that this book was all about love and family, we are shown that what mattered most in life is the love and family (including friends) that you surround yourself with. So I say farewell to these characters but not to this author, this series (books 1-12) will be one that I reread again and again and one that I will pass down to my children to read.

What a bittersweet, but great end to an even greater series!! I feel like I know these characters like I grew up with them and I guess in a sense I have. I've been on this journey for almost 4 years now with this crew and I am sad to see them go. All good things must come to and end though right? This is one series I know I will go back to time and time again and it will never get old. Jillian's writing in this series is fun and I love how the story plays out from start to finish.

Jillian, I can only imagine if my own heartbreak is any indication, how this must feel to say goodbye to this cast (do you hear me CW, or anyone in Hollywood really??!!). Thank you for sharing this journey with us all.

Absolutely love love loved "Love." Jillian ended this series on such a high note! She brought the last 11 books together and ended it just the perfect way.

The book started off right where the last one ended and continued on. All the characters stayed true to themselves and each other.

Without giving away spoilers, the drama, laughs, love and tears shred during this book was the perfect amount. There was no question left unanswered. My only wish would be that she didn't stop writing about these characters, but rumor has it she will be writing a spin off of the triplets at Eastbrooke. So I will have to wait until then!

Thanks you Jillian, for always writing from your heart and sharing your stories with us!

I can’t lie. I am so crushed my Keatyn journey is over (for now, here’s to hoping we go back to Eastbrooke soon!) Honestly this had one of the best conclusions in a series I have read. I still truly love each and every character I this series. When you’ve finished reading it feels like you have literally lived there with them and grew up with them. That’s how amazing this series is. It’s so detailed & not one question is unanswered. Jillian Dodd, you will always be on of my all-time favorite authors & The Keatyn Chronicles will always be one of my all-time favorite series with many many re reads like this one. Thank you for your amazing writing. This series is like the gift that keeps giving!

What an ending! It's hard to believe the Keatyn Chronicles is finally coming to an end. The entire gang shows up in this final book. We have seen these characters grow so much from the very first book in the series. I found myself sheading a few tears towards the end of this book. Not because anything bad or sad had happened, it was just emotional to know these were the last times to read about Keats and the gang. And there were so many good things that happened to each and every one of the characters. To Jillian Dodd...great writing as usual and to the Keaytn gang...it's been a wild and crazy ride with y'all and I loved every minute of it!

Where do I even begin? Jillian, this book... this book is absolutely wonderful! Absolutely 1000% wonderful! I am so sad to see this wonderful series, but how you wrapped it up was amazing. You have such a wonderful way with words to make a book so captivating to the audience. I loved watching each and every one of these characters grow throughout this entire series. This is a series that I have fallen in love with from start to finish. You never disappoint at all. Thank you for letting me be apart of your beta read group as well as bringing such an amazing series into my life. This is a series you can relate to on so many levels and you feel like you grow with the characters as well.

it's the end of an era with this crew. I'm gonna miss them sorely!!
This book was all you needed to bring conclusions to everyone's lives. It had it all. Keatyn and Aiden, Dawson and Vanessa, Knox and Katie, and Riley and Ariella. You also get to see how the rest of the gang are fairing in this final farewell!
If you haven't read this series, it's highly recommended.
Amazing job Jillian! I'm so happy and sad at the same time right now! You've really shined and brought smiles, laughter, sadness, joy, fear, and every emotion in between to our hearts. We're deeply going to miss the gang and can't wait to see what you have coming for us next!

What a way to end a series. you will laugh, cry, and be an emotional wreck by the end. this series was the second book that i ever purchase on my kindle and I have been in love with this series. this has grow with me over time. I am a true fan. I love seeing the characters all grown up. i love everyone HEA (Happy ever after, FYI). There have been some very crazy moments in this book series. if you have not read the first one yet it is amazing and it is FREE. Overall this was a great journey for all of the characters. I have never read a better ending in a series before. Even though the series is over this will still be my ride or die number one series.

What a finale!

First, I want to say how sad I am that this was the last book. I loved looking forward to a new book every so often. I love these characters.

Second, We get a lot of questions answered. We get to live with Keatyn and everyone for a little longer. I was a little bummed with so many "news articles" to read instead of actually being present with everyone. We got used to being so up close and personal with each character that it took away from that relationship to receive news any other way.

And lastly, I'll miss these characters, but I am so happy they are all in the right places and things worked out for them even with all the drama and twists.

I'm sad I have come to the end of the keatyn chronicles, when I started the first book and the beginging of lockdown 2020 I wasnt sure weather I would read the rest but I'm so glad i did, i loved seeing Keatyn turn from a self absorbed 17 year old to a beautiful women, I have fallen in love with her family and friends and there lives, I would love a book maybe set 20 years on to see if there all together still although I know grandpa Douglas wouldn't likely be in it which would be very sad as I want him as my grandpa. This series has made me laugh, cry, my heart go into my throat and has been a fab Chronicle to read during the covid 19 lockdown 2020.

I think I just got dumped by text

I love the Keatyn Chronicles! The last half of this book left me a bit disappointed. After 9 books, we've had such a long relationship and now I get dumped by text without even a phone call! Seriously??? Seriously, the last half just seemed like the author was sick of writing the series and just crammed a bunch of News Flash tabloid updates to summarize things without having to write the story in 1st person like the rest of the series. I liked the endings everyone got, just the writing style was totally different and left me a bit disappointed.
