It's the last week of my exchange in London, and my flight leaves on Saturday.

Harry wants our relationship to progress, but his family life is falling apart. And shocking news from his parents might send him over the edge.

Noah is becoming more reckless with both his words and his actions. Between longing glances, sweet conversations and heated moments, I don't know where we stand.

And Mohammad tells me that I have some important decisions to make.

The countdown is on, and only two things are certain.
I'm going to have to leave the three boys I've grown to love.
And by the end of the week, I'm not sure if any of them will ever forgive me.

It's a good thing my time at Kensington is almost up.

I’ve adjusted. I’ve taken someplace unfamiliar and made it into a home. And I think that’s special. It’s really special.

I am so obsessed with Jillian Dodd’s ‘London Prep’ series! These are books you won’t be able to put down- and the third one is the best one yet!

Mallory has been in London only a few short weeks but she’s made memories and friends to last a lifetime. It’s hard to believe her time is coming to an end, and to be honest, she wishes it wasn’t. She needs more time. London has felt like home to her and she wants to stay to see where her relationships will take her.

Mallory is dating Harry, best friends with Mohammad, and Noah, well it’s hard to define what’s between Mallory and Noah. It all sounds complicated and it is. I’m definitely a Team Noah stan and have been since book 1. I love Harry, I do, but Noah. Sigh. He’s who I want Mallory with.
“I think I finally realized you can’t contain a storm,” he replies, looking at me. “You just have to let it run its course. If it consumes you in the process, well, it will be a beautiful ending, won’t it?”
“You make it sound like I’m going to destroy you.”
“I guess that’s up to you.”

There was some definite angst in this installment and I am so anxious to get to the next book. I mean, that ending! It was great but also made me want so much more of this story! I can’t wait to see where Jillian takes us in the next book. These are must reads for lovers of YA/NA books that are high on drama, friendship, and fun!

So I went into this thinking it was the last story in this series, spoiler alert it isn’t!

Okay, so it’s Mallory’s last week in London. Her feelings for Harry are growing each day and the tension between her and Noah is growing at the same rate.

Harry is going through all sorts of things with his family and his moody moments are upsetting for Mallory, she wishes he would open up to her more and stop making her feel like she isn’t important to him. Having said that, they do have some really sweet moments where Mallory can see what a future with him could look like and it excites her to think like that.

‘I nod my head. Because there’s always this conflict surrounding me. And it’s constant. And exhausting. But the second it’s just Harry and me, I relax. I can take a breath. I can just be me. I can be happy.’

The thought of leaving is begin to weigh heavily on them all and honestly, she manages to pack so much into this final week. Brunch, high tea, shopping, museum trip, dinner party, drinks with friends, movies and a few close encounters with Noah that just confuse her.

‘He always seems seems to have the perfect thing to say to relax me. Then, at the same time, he has this ability to make me fully distracted.’

Things feel like they are teetering a bit and Mallory is on emotional overload with everything going on with these two boys. Things finally begin to become much clearer on her last day at school until everything changes and omg, that’s when I realised this wasn’t the last book! I need closure stat! Jillian, how could you do this to me?!

There's a scene that I love in this book where Helen (Noah's mom) and Mallory (main character) are talking. Helen says: "You’ve cracked into the hearts of my boys." ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
And I hope that Harry and Noah and Mohammad have cracked into your hearts too. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I absolutely love these British boys and writing their very distinct personalities. I hope that you fall in love with them, with Mallory, and OF COURSE with London too!

RIP. HERE LIES JOEE!!!!!!



“Romance is …romance. It’s different for everyone...But romance also means support. It means helping someone when they struggle. It can be anything from doing the dishes to a slow, unexpected kiss.”

Here we are on week 3 of Mallory being an exchange student in London and I'm still a little speechless over that JAW DROPPING ending. But this book was absolutely amazing. It was SO ANGST-filled I thought my Kindle would explode. 

I can also say without a doubt I am 100% Team Noah and co-captain (with my friend, Katie) of the Noah Williams Fan club. There were so many hot, chemistry filled moments in this one that had me screaming, "KISS HER ALREADY." 

I'll admit though the beginning had me feeling a little conflicted on my emotions especially regarding Harry. Because he is such a darn sweetie. Their date was PRECIOUS!   

I love how completely invested I get in these books. I almost forget Mallory, Noah and Harry aren't real. Every time it's mentioned that Mallory's going home soon to NYC I want to cry because I don't want her to leave. SHE CAN'T GO!

I need the 4th book ASAP because that ending was straight up insane. One word: COSMIC.  I have so many questions that need answers. But I'm rooting for my team big time!! Highly recommend these books if you like a good love triangle with lots of amazing chemistry/drama.

I genuinely do not know how to move on with my life at this point. The ending has be an emotional wreck, I don’t want to read and anything else, and I would likely trade a vital organ to read book 4 right now.

“You can’t contain a storm. You just have to let it run its course. If it consumes you in the process, well, it will be a beautiful ending.”

OH. MY. WOW!!! Jillian Dodd is a queen of YA romance, a strong leader in this genre. The masterful writer, Dodd, continues to wow me with her magical words. Breathtakingly beautiful, angst-bleeding, and passionately told, the third installment of the London Prep series is PURE HEART-POUNDING PERFECTION! Young adult romance at its best!!! This tale turned me into an addict where its words were my drug ... the guiltiest of pleasures.

Told through a strong and stunning teen studying abroad, London Prep is a tangled hero and heroine web woven into a heart-hitting tale, which shows the value of life and love, and family and true friends who become family. Dodd perfectly nails the teenage mind—the angst, the complexity, the drama, the emotions—as she intricately captures the teenage heart. This Harry-Mallory-Noah tale gave me serious Twilight vibes with the Edward-Jacob-ish love triangle Dodd created in this heart-racing read.

OMG ... the hold-your-breath intensity of the hero and heroine. I felt their connection burst through the pages. Flames that burned me everywhere. I burned for this book. I wasn’t just reading this romance, I was transported into this story, living as the heroine, Mallory. It was so easy to fall in love with every word, every character, and everything that is London Prep.

My emotions are still scattered in this story, a storm that struck my soul. I loved it. I lived it. I felt it all. This gem of a book made me breathless, leaving me melting for more. So achingly addictive! London Prep is a phenomenal, passionate, punch-you-in-the-feels romance—among the best YA series I’ve read.

A top 2020 read and series that is YA romance perfection!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ but worth all the bloody and beautiful kisses

I could NOT put this one down! My emotions have emotions. I don’t know how she does it but Jillian knows how to make a girl swoon. And THAT ENDING! Cliffhanger I was not expecting but loved every minute of it.

"I've taken someplace unfamiliar and made it into a home. And I think that's special. It's really special."



If you've read book two, then you KNOW how it ends. Book three picks up with the last line! 👏🏼THE. 👏🏼LAST. 👏🏼LINE! 😱

It is the final week of Miss America's exchange in London. CRYING! 😭 Harry Brooks is still smitten and Noah is fond of Mallory too. Harry wants their relationship to progress; however, is he truly ready? He's got a first class ticket on the hot mess express 🚂 regarding his family. His life is a complicated 🙈 mess. But 💣 BOMBS 💣 be dropped in LP3!

Noah...

🥰 I nominate myself as president of the Noah William's Fan Club! 🥰 JK. I’ll share the duties with all the Team Noah ladies. 😉 Mal and Noah have been dancing around each other like magnets. Noah is all grumpy and brooding and deep. And he's also super thoughtful. Noah and Mal have some precious moments and some that will leave you SCREAM TYPING to your book bestie (Thanks, Joee- Team Noah).

You WILL feel a RANGE of emotions while reading this story: jealousy, heart break, boiling anger, frustration, sadness, joy, hope. Jillian does an AMAZING job keeping you on-your-toes-HOOKED! 👏🏼 I literally cannot fathom how she can write a story that evokes so much emotion. 👍🏼Props! Big ups, Jillian! 👏🏼 You'll experience strong feelings for the characters in this story. There are scenes that will have you looking at your chest wondering if it has cracked open. I highly suggest googling "defibrillator for sale" because you will absolutely need a shock to your heart! That cliff hanger! 😱😭 I'm SHOOK! Reeling! 😱 How do I go on with my life? I don't want to see Mal leave these three boys (don't forget Mohammad- he's a good friend!). Tears! 🥺London Prep: Book Three is full of drama, angst, first love, and London adventures. I'm desperate for the conclusion! LP4! 👏🏼🇬🇧

BIG, huge, thanks to Jillian Dodd for allowing me to peruse an advanced reader copy. I cannot wait to squeeze hug the physical book! 🤟🏼

I still can’t believe I’m still reading this series. It just goes on and on, and I get bored sometimes because the chapters just drag! And all of this happens in the span of 3 weeks and they’re only 16! Everything just moves so fast yet so slow at the same time. They’re already talking about being in love, it’s just too much to handle. And then the ending definitely wasn’t necessary. Mallory is starting to annoy me, I’m rooting for her but then I’m annoyed with the decisions she makes. I keep telling myself to just stop reading, but I need to know what happens. Definitely have a love/hate relationship with this series

Why did I read this? I cannot stand Mallory. She is selfish, conceited, and ridiculous. I hope Noah & Harry realize that they will never be able to make her happy... maybe she’ll end up alone in the end.

Sadly, I’ll have to read book 4 to find out. But only if book 4 is available on KU.

I have read many books by this author - this series is not my favorite, but pathetically my insomnia has me up reading until the wee hours.

A great series by Dodd - if you want to laugh & smile - the Kitty Valentine series. Check them out!

Ohhhhhhhhhh MY GAWWWWD.
How can it end like that??!?!?!?!?!?!?
Loving this story so much and I adore these characters. I don't want Mallory to go home.
I want her to stay in London so we can see more adventures with all of these kids.
This installment of the story really allows you see more of the depth of what the family life is like for all the boys. It was nice to see Mallory spend more time with Mohammed and she really just says yes to any new experience. I'm tired thinking about all that she's accomplished in 3 weeks. And I can just imagine what it will be like to return to her old life when she has so much excitement overseas. Sometimes, I think these kids seem too mature for them to be teenagers but perhaps they are old souls. :) AND THAT ENDING?!?!?!?!? Wow. Can't wait for more.

I hate this book. How dare Jillian Dodd get me soo wrapped up in highschool drama when I am a grown adult. It’s rude. But I AM OBSESSED!!! Mallory will 100% be the death of me. And those boys. Nope. They need to get their shit together and stop giving mixed feelings.

Games are not for emotions. If you want to play games, go grab a controller or a board game. But my heart is not a toy.
That is what I want to tell Mallory. And reading the descriptions ahead, well Mallory next time be careful what you wish for. 🤦🏽‍♀️

🥰 Jillian Dodd is an amazing writer. But I just wish I wasn’t so completely sucked in some days because I am ready to run a mile with all this drama on my mind

I cried multiple times during Mallory’s last week in London. I didn’t even expect to be so emotionally caught up in her angst-filled drama between Harry and Noah. I really loved all of the tender moments between the guys and Miss America. Especially with Mohammad and his sisters. The Williams family is so grounded and Helen is really one of my favorite mothers ever. I don’t want to say much more because I want the reader to really immerse themselves in this last week. Grab your tissues and buckle up for a bumpy ride. I’m dying and crying for book four!

Maybe I’ll write a review once I pick up the broken pieces of my heart that got torn out and stomped on. Till then I’ll be in my room crying because I don’t know how to live after that ending.

Thank you Valentine PR for a complimentary copy. I voluntarily reviewed this book. All opinions expressed are my own.

London Prep
Book 3
By: Jillian Dodd


REVIEW ☆☆☆☆
I'm drawn to the setting of the story. London is a lovely place for a romance. London Prep Book 3 is not the final word it seems. Everything I anticipated was here, teen angst and drama, one girl and too many guys, some humor and sassyness, and there you have it. I was totally entertained and engaged with the characters and their relationships. If you read and liked the other London Prep books, you will most likely enjoy this one, too. The drama just picks up and keeps on going!

I am still #TeamNoah. There was so much drama in this book. And as always I am holding my breath and waiting on the next book. I can’t wait to find out what happens in the next book. I don’t want this series to end. Love the friendship between Mallory and Mohammad. Now I wish I was a foreign exchange student when I was younger 😢. This series is a must read. I love everything that Jillian Dodd writes.

3 books into this clever series and I am still very firmly planted on #teamnoah. He is everything a smart teen girl could ever want and need (despite them living in two different countries). I do not understand why Mallory is holding onto Harry. He is an awesome guy but he is NOT ready for a relationship with her and he is, quite frankly a adorable disaster.

I cannot wait to see who she ends up with. This is reminiscent of my teen days watching Passions and wondering who Ethan is going to pick, stuck up longtime girlfriend Gwen of fiery, gorgeous, albeit mischievous Teresa. Ahhh the good old soap opera days.

Love this series even if I haven’t hashtagged potential suiters since #teamedward and #teamjacob (always #teamedward)

Jillian does it again, a third time in the series. She leaves us with a massive cliffhanger at the end of the book, The Kiss.

I have soo many freaking emotions coming through me as I read this book up to its finishing touches. Jillian knows how to captivate her audience with the story of Mallory, Noah, Harry, and Mohammad. Of course, let’s not forget the other girls, Naomi and Olivia.

I felt like I was part of the story. I have cried soo much in that ending. My heart felt like it was being strung out with pain. You must read this whole series to know what I’m talking about.

5 + stars for The Kiss by Jillian Dodd

Y’all. This series has been my hands down FAVORITE YA books, and this third one did not disappoint!!! It’s not a small book and I read it in 24 hours that’s how much I could not put it down! Jillian did it again with an insanely entertaining, have to see what’s next, dying when it’s over read! I finished this one then immediately asked when book 4 was coming out!

Jillian does an AMAZING job with all of the characters. I can imagine writing a love triangle has to be very difficult making sure everyone is likeable and not favoring the person who ends up with her, and honestly as much as I’ve always been Team Noah (it has to be Noah or I might cry!) Harry is still super sweet and incredibly loveable.

This series is a MUST READ for any YA lover! It comes out on 9/17 - in THREE DAYS - so go ahead and preorder it (along with the first two) and thank me later!!

#teamnoah!

I’ve been team Noah since the beginning of the series. While we still don’t know how the series is going to end, this book answers a ton of our questions and more Drama!! If you’ve read the first two you’re going to love this next installment. If you’re new to the series go get book one and get started. You won’t be disappointed.

Drama...drama...drama...Book 3 is FULL if it! Mallory finds herself stuck between a rock and a hard body in this book. She makes her decision on which boy she wants a future with, but then someone decides they want something more...or do they really? This book gives you more of the chemistry that Noah and Mallory can not deny. It also gives you a more serious, and seriously troubled, Harry. What will Mallory do with only one week left in London? This book proves one thing she will do...find drama around every corner.

From fighting to going to London to Mallory feeling like it was more of a home than New York. I though book two broke me at the end. The last words of book two follow right into book three where you get a full on Mallory melt down.
This is Mallorys last week and her feelings for Noah and Harry become more confusing each day even though BOTH try and push each other away and be friends.
Harry is precious and sweet but he needs to handle everything with his family before bringing a girlfriend and him always being up and down.
NOAH *sigh* yes he is all sorts of confusing and can’t form how he feels. Pushes and pulls Mallory which is very aggravating but he is there for her even when it’s a fight about Harry. The connection and fire between them is something every one dreams of having.
This week it being her last is more school work and more heartache and headache. Enemies become
“Friends” and maybe help everything she has been struggling with.
So is it February yet?

Mallory is by far one of my favorite Jillian Dodd characters. She’s fun, relatable, and this book will have you on pins and needles. I mean, going to London? Meeting got boys? Her adventures across the pond are not something to miss!

This book is amazing as Mallory’s time in London is coming to a close she has an important decision to make. On the one hand she has Harry Who says and does all the right things but who she feels pushes her away at all the right times. Then there’s Noah with whom she is obviously attracted to but feels that she cannot act on it because of Harry. As the time dwindles down for her departure back home new feelings are brought to the surface, And Mallory makes two decisions that could impact her future forever.
