Five years after their wedding, and life is good for Renzo and Lucia.

If not a little stressful.

They’re always on the move—Lucia with her gallery, and Renzo being an assassin for The League. At the chance to slow life down with a week-long trip for just the two of them to Bali, they can’t pass it up.

But even Bali will change things …

It’s one more step toward forever.

The icing on the cake.

This series has been fabulous and this book just finishes it all off nicely. Ren and Lucia have been married for five years. They’re both busy with life but still very much in love.

Ren decides they need some alone time in beautiful Bali.

Me encanto Forever, fue todo lo que necesitaba como cierre para Lucia y Renzo, y aunque me hubiera gustado saber mas sobre el futuro de esta pareja despues de ese epilogo, tengo la esperanza de saber mas de ellos en alguna de las otras novelas de la autora.

La historia fue muy bonita y romantica, ademas se centra practicamente en ellos, lo que me gusto mucho, y que decir de Diego, ese niño se ha convertido en un muchacho increible.

En fin, una novella final hermosa, me lo pase genial con ella.

3.5 Estrellas!

I love a novella that checks into characters lives. If you’re a fan of Renzo and Lucia then this read is a must. It’s sweet, sexy, satisfying and makes you smile. A perfect little pick me up to read at the end of your day.

This is novella is a quick read about Renzo & Lucia. As always, Bethany-Kris satisfied me with her writing. It’s like she knew I needed my Renzo fix and she definitely delivered. If you are a fan of Renzo and Lucia I highly recommend this. You get just enough of Ren and Lucia to remember why you love this couple so much!

I loved catching up with these characters, especially in such a beautiful setting. They took a break from their hectic lives to be with just each other, loving on one another and enjoying the silence of Bali. There were little sneak peeks into other characters' lives as well. There was a little work thrown in here and there, as responsibilities are never too far away. Just seeing Lucia and Ren still so in love with each other was the absolute best.

Tras cinco años de casados, Renzo y Lucía deciden ponerle una pausa a sus vidas ocupadas y se toman una semana de vacaciones en Balí. Sin embargo, Renzo acepta un pequeño favor y debe escaparse un par de horas para realizarlo.

No les explico lo que me gustó ver a Renzo tener una buena relación con los Marcellos, sobre todo con Lucian. Llegó a un punto en el que ha llegado a verlo como la figura paterna que nunca tuvo. Todavía no tienen una gran relación porque el pasado siempre estará presente, pero se permiten avanzar y se nota eso.

Y no solo eso, también Renzo sabe que puede confiarle su hermano menor a John, con quien Diego parece llevarse muy bien y suele pasar tiempo de vez en cuando al vivir tan cerca.

Hablando de John, me encanta que haya arreglado su relación con Lucía y que se lleven tan bien. Además, John es de mis Marcellos favoritos y me encantó verlo bromeando con su hermana. Realmente lo amo.

Disfruté mucho leer a Renzo y Lucia ya establecidos, con buena relación y cercanía con sus familias, disfrutando de las vacaciones. Es todo tan ligero y lo que ambos se merecen después de tanto.

I think one of my favorite things are vonus novellas. The glimpse of characters you love after their stories have "ended ."

Forever is a joy for the Ren & Lucia lovers out there. A sweet and still very Bethany-Kris peek at what they are up to now.

Forever will leave you sporting at least a smirk if not a big smile.

*Also can we talk about my sudden need for all The League players...I mean for real. Gimme gimme gimme!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5 STARS

Forever is a novella, a companion novel to the Renzo + Lucia Trilogy. It satisfies your curiosity and need for more of what’s happening with Renzo and Lucia. I highly recommend reading this book if you loved the three previous books in the series.

Forever by Bethany-Kris is another EPIC read and will join the ranks of the BIBLIO-ARISTOCRACY!!!

Una historia corta de Renzo y Lucia Zulla, cinco años después, ellos están casados y necesitan un tiempo a solas entre el trabajo en la galería de Lucia y las misiones para la Liga de Renzo.
Así que ambos se van a Balí por una semana, para desconectarse y dedicarse el uno al otro.
Se lee rápido, es fresco y lindo. No hay mucho que decir.

Finally got around to reading one of my favorite couples and I loved it. A perfect conclusion to their story but I expect to see them pop in ever now and then within Bethany's world.

A warm hug…

Oh, I loved this sweet slice of Renzo and Lucia’s life! After all they had gone through it was wonderful to see, and hear, how their relationship was going a few years after the trilogy ended...

They were loving, attentive and the sizzle was very much still there. Sneaking off to the tropics sounded like heaven and it was even if Ren’s work snuck in just a little. No drama, no darkness, all love and ordinary life with glimpses of family to round out the update.

Super short, it was a long epilogue really, and it was perfect…

Lucía y Renzo casados después de años de casados y tan ocupados en sus trabajos deciden irse de vacaciones a Bali,bueno,más bien es una sorpresa de Renzo a Lucía.
Tanto su alojamiento como Bali en sí no pueden ser más perfectos pero en medio de esas maravillosas vacaciones Renzo recibe una llamada de la Liga para ocuparse de un trabajo.
Me ha encantado volver a encontrarme con estos personajes.
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Mil gracias a esta autora y espero que siga escribiendo por mucho más tiempo.
Gracias Bethany Kris

Ren & Lucia Forever

What a great addition to Ren & Lucia’s story. I love reading Bethany-Kris’s companions because they are a mix of a love letter to the couple and a gift to the reader in my opinion. It’s always great to catch up with these characters and this world and I consider these companions a lovely gift to the readers!

Finally coming back to these two, and how a missed them!
It was really interesting to see how their life was going after the events of the last book!
Seeing more of Ren’s job was amazing!
And that epilogue, I’m so in love!

*reading about Les/Corrado/Ginny having kids just sent me to the moon, I wanna see how it goes!*

I decided against a rating for now because I feel funny about rating companion novellas. It's a short read (a little over 100 pages) that fans of Renzo and Lucia will enjoy. Forever checks in with the couple a few years after the conclusion of Contempt and is a treat for fans who are wanting a look into their marriage and future.

This was a very short book to end this series. Kind of an extended epilogue. I liked it fine, I’m just not a huge fan of a book after the couple get their HEA. I still loved both characters and was happy to see them five years into the future. Still dealt with The League some which I wasn’t a big fan of that storyline. But I loved the trilogy and you know I always love anything by Bethany-Kris.

Continuation of the story about the couple.
It's like an extended epilogue but with a bit more detail of the League and a small side story.
No intimate scenes with anyone other than the Hero and heroine.
No cheating.
As a side note I really didn't like the cover.
HEA.

I really liked Lucia and Renzo and I was happy to get to see this cute ending to their story. I'm glad they got their happily ever after, after everything they went through (even if it was a bit by their own doing)..

This was like Christmas in July. I loved getting a bonus epilogue and a peek back into these two lives. This author makes me fall in love with all her characters so any chance to see them again is a bonus.

Different

This book was a tad disappointing. Having fallen in love with Renzo and Lucia from the start, I felt that this story was tame. However, I look forward to more stories about the Marcello and Zullo families.

Short and Sweet

Will there be a new series about the League and their group of assassins? I hope so because it was a glimpse of something I want more of! Another great story by BK.

5, duh

Anything in their world demands a five, but I am so captivated with Lucia & Ren. They remind me most of young forever love.
