Wow…I am speechless. The cliffhanger for Fallen Rose was not so bad but then again it was the conclusion to Beau’s and Lyla’s journey to their HEA. The ending did give us a hint that Wrecked Rose 🥀, book 7, will be the beginning of Max’s story. I can’t wait to see Max get his very own HEA. After all Max has been a great friend to all the couple that are part of their crew not to mention he was best friends with Daphne. Ok, back to Fallen Rose. Lyla’s and Beau’s journey has been a very wild ride with lots of twist, turns, things going sideways, ups, and downs, angst, varying emotions, secrets, revelations, and lots and lots of heat🔥🌡! Fallen Rose 🥀 was an excellent conclusion to Beau’s and Lyla’s story. Lyla and Beau had challenges that they had to overcome and they learned a lot about each other and themselves while on their wild rollercoaster ride to their HEA. I won’t give details but I do believe that the blurbs and author’s notes and comments did say each couple will earn their HEA if I am wrong about that I am sorry. I don’t want to give any details away so I apologize if this review is a little vague but I will say that it will be totally worth reading! Just a warning ⚠️ you do need to read Tangled Rose 🥀 before reading Fallen Rose 🥀 as they are both part of Beau’s and Lyla’s journey. But I totally recommend starting from Savage Rose 🥀 to get the full scope of the Rosehaven Academy series and full enjoyment of Fallen Rose. If this is your first time reading Leila James’ books then you are probably like me and am fully enjoying her creative writing style and skills and her very lovable and easy to relate to characters (after all of you reached book 6 from the Rosehaven Academy series you must be enjoying her writing or you would have stopped before now, am I right? 😂). Fallen Rose 🥀 did justice to Leila’s writing style, creativity, and ability to write a story that you can totally get lost in to the point you don’t want to stop. I admit I will be very sad once the Rosehaven Academy series ends. As I mentioned I highly recommend Fallen Rose 🥀, Rosehaven Academy Series, and Leila James as an author. Now I am off to continue on with Wrecked Rose 🥀 to see what Max has in store for us readers.

Delicious drama, edge of your seat suspense, and beyond HOT sexy times....Rosehaven Academy is one series that is not to be missed!!

After the tangled mess Leila James left Beau and Lyla in, it would seem that this couple is over before they've even really begun. The relationship they've been building has just been broken to pieces and I for one couldn't wait to see how James was going to write them out of this mess!

The conclusion to Beau and Lyla's story was so DAMN GOOD! Leila definitely pulled all the stops out to make this the most explosive story in this already addictive series! There are so many obstacles standing in the way of Beau and Lyla's HEA. The twists and turns kept me continually turning pages, needing to find out what was going to happen next....

I couldn’t get enough of Beau and Lyla! I love these two and love them for each other! They have a fantastic push and pull, and their chemistry was scorching hot! Watching them come together as a couple was both maddening and endearing. You couldn't help but root for them!

Leila has once again created a story that I couldn't get enough of. The drama had me on the edge of my seat in this one. The secrets, lies, and conspiring forces are just the tip of the iceberg!

I've said it before....If you haven't started this series yet, WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR?? It's SO GOOD and HIGHLY ADDICTIVE! Get it on your TBR and do it now! You'll thank me later...😘❤

This entire series has me hooked on these characters and on Leila James! Her writing is fantastic. These books always have you begging for so much more. Beau and Lyla’s story is no exception to that!

This book in particular took me on a journey of emotions. One minute I was so happy and swooning. The next minute I was angry and had to put the book down. But the minute I did, I turned around and picked it back up as I had to know how it ended. Not to mention the tears this book made me shed! Leila take all my emotions, go ahead, they are all yours!

This book had my stomach in knots! I mean how could it not be after the ending of Fallen Rose! My mouth is still open after that cliffhanger! This book answers all the questions you have and so much more! Beau wicked had my heart fluttering. This is a must read amazing series!!!

I like Beau, Lyla was ok but I just got bored with the story and skim read from 40% of the book. The story could have been done in 1 book tbh.

Lyla was definitely something. My favorite moment of this book was when she handed Mandy’s ass to her during that game. The only moment she made me mad was when she lied to Beau to get money for her mom. And I felt my heart crack a little when he found out. So many people used him for status and because of who his father was, and I hated how much it hurt him to find out Lyla lied. Granted her motives weren’t malicious, she was scared and didn’t know what else to do, plus she had every intention to pay him back. But I have to hand it to Lyla, she was strong, fierce, and could definitely hold her own. She was a fighter and I really really enjoyed seeing her stand up to Mandy- over and over again! Plus seeing everyone at her back was the best.
This was a good conclusion to Beau and Lyla, and I loved getting Beau’s pov. For some reason with all these couples the first books are in the FMC pov, and the second is in both. I really appreciate getting both, I need that perspective from both characters to fully enjoy the story.
Onto the next couple Max and Griff! I love mm and these two have been two of my favorites throughout this series. Both guys have been amazing characters and friends for the girls, so I’m excited to see them get their HEA too. And then after them, Aria gets hers! And I am very excited to read hers. She’s the sassy, smart ass queen bee of the school who doesn’t do bullies or catty b*tches! She gives it to you straight and I love it!

Just when I thought that Beau couldn’t get anymore swoon worthy Leila went and proved me wrong. His protective and caring side came out even more in this book. You can tell that he just wants to take care of Lyla and help her with everything, from her past to her mother. Not to mention the fact that he likes and cares for Lyla for who she is. Where she comes from doesn’t matter to him at all. Despite all of that it’s still difficult for Lyla to accept it because of her past and the way that her mother has always been. Speaking of Lyla’s mother, that woman is horrible and she deserves everything that happens to her. Yep, I said it, and I mean it. But as bad as her mother is she doesn’t even hold a candle to Mandy. That girl is a grade A bitch and takes what she does to Lyla to whole new level of horrible than we’ve seen before in these books.

The conclusion to Lyla and Beau’s story was just perfect. All of the twists in this book made me keep turning the page until the very end. At one point, it felt like they had everything going against them and their relationship so I had to know what was going to happen next and how everything would be wrapped up for them. And I couldn’t be any happier with the way it ended. Add in the other characters that I’ve come to love and those HOT sexy times, and I ended up sitting down and reading the whole book in one sitting. So settle in, grab a glass of wine, some tissues (because there will probably be tears), and a fan to help you cool off during those spicy scenes, and enjoy Fallen Rose.

This is the 6th book in this phenomenal series and the 2nd part of Beau and Lyla’s story. I am totally in awe of this talented author and each book in this amazing series just keeps getting better and better. After that cliffhanger we know that Lyla’s secrets have been exposed about her mom, and once again she is the target of intense bullying, and a little witch that wants to hurt her and end her relationship with Beau. Fate has destined Beau and Lyla to be together, but they have many challenges to overcome on their journey, and I loved how their relationship evolved. This is a beautifully written emotionally charged story, which has intense chemistry, engaging and realistic characters, and has angst, twists, secrets, friendships, family, and love, which all leads to an entertaining and compelling page turner. I look forward to reading more from this talented author whose work I highly recommend.

Perfect Ending for a Powerful Couple

This epic conclusion to Beau & Lyla story is filled with lust, desire, lies, and danger. Lyla has to stop her mom but she doesn’t know how to ask for help and being with Beau is everything she’s ever wanted and didn’t know she needed. But she’s worried he’s too perfect for her and she doesn’t know how to trust people even though she is slowly realizing these are her people and they will have her back no matter what. But forgetting the past is hard to do and with Mandy still attacking her every chance she gets Lyla is worried she’ll never be able to overcome it. Danger is lurking around every corner and if Layla isn’t careful her mother will destroy everything she’s worked for. This is an epic wild ride but worth every minute of it. You will not be disappointed in the least. As always, Leila James has delivered another amazing story to this phenomenal series. Happy Reading!!

WOW, just absolutely WOW. What can I say, this book is the BEST. Tall about heart clenching, emotionally riveting. This book starts where the last book left off and keeps you guessing all the way to the end. What happens with the mother does she finally leave Lyla alone? What's the secret Lyla is keeping from Beau? Will Beau show her how fiercely he loves her? Let me tell you I LOOOVEEE Beau for Lyla. He is her rock, lifts her up when she is down, strong for her when she is weak. Lyla is so sassy and isn't afraid to stand her ground, yet she leans on Beau when times call for it. I cried so much and felt that I could easily relate to her in the mother aspect, especially in a scene towards the end. Not going to spoil the end for you, sorry you have to read it to find out. I highly recommend reading this book and the previous one if you haven't read that one yet.

Mind. Utterly. Blown. I am just reeling from the bombs dropped & twists & turns I just read through! Beau is EVERYTHING Lyla has ever needed & I just adore him! His strength & quiet support are utterly endearing & I love him so! Lyla is the strongest, most courageous heroine Leila James has written yet, & reading her was an absolute privilege! There were a few times that my heart just shattered for her & the things she'd been through, she's tough as nails & deserves every good thing in this life! I absolutely loved the presence of my favorite couples, Scarlett & Xander, Micah & Daphne, as well as Max, Griff, & Aria. This is one friend group I'm in no hurry to leave behind! Absolute 5 star conclusion to this devastating beautiful duet set in the Rosehaven world!!! Make yourself comfortable & settle in to read for a while, this is one you'll be unable to put down!!!

I was lucky enough to receive an ARC of Fallen Rose and it is my favourite book of the Rosehaven Series. Beau and Lyla have stolen my heart.

Leila James has pulled it out of the bag again and after the cliffhanger ending of the first book of this duet I wondered if she would be able to bring it back to a HEA in a believable way. She did and she completely blew me away. It is angsty, emotional in places, full of strong friendships and a fantastic plot.

Beau has always been a favourite of mine from Xander’s book and it was nice to see a serious side to him. His character has been developed beautifully throughout this duet.

So if you are looking for well written, angsty, characters that you will love, plus ones you want to punch, then this is for you.

Is it time for Max’s story yet? 😂

Are you ready for Beau and Lyla's HEA? It's going to take a bit to get there.

Lyla's secret is out. Everyone knows about her mom and her "job". Lyla is trying hard to convince everyone she's not her mom, but her mom smells money and won't go away.

Beau knows there is more that Lyla is keeping from him. He can't figure out why she won't trust him with everything. When things start to fall apart, he jumps to conclusions and she runs.

Will Beau be able to put the pieces together and get to Lyla before she gets hurt?

Another great Rosehaven Academy book!

Wow..... Beau and Lyla's story was the top read so far for me !!! I LOVED Lyla's sassy personality and how she says it like it is to everyone !!! Beau is EVERYONES "HOT" dream boat. Lyla and Beau were meant to be together that is clear from the start !!! I love the way this author introduces you to these characters in her previous books in the series. Some of the "pairs" of characters have caught me off guard for sure, BUT I have never been discouraged at all !!! I cant wait to see where the next book will take me !!!

This conclusion to Beau and Lyla's duet was amazing. I was hooked from the very first page and I couldn't put it down. The twist and turns this book took was amazing. The chemistry and attraction between Beau and Lyla grew in this book and it was amazing to see them grow as a couple. Each book in this series gets better and better and I truly can't wait for the next book in this series to come out. If you haven't started reading the Rosehaven Academy series yet you are missing out on a great series and a pretty cool group of friends.

This was Everything I could of hoped for. Lyla and Beau’s story is a whirlwind, Like All of the things Lyla has to deal with would break an average person 10x over, But not her. And Beau, I’m in love! But, there are things that you don’t realize people have to go through and deal with even if their parents are rich and famous.things Aren’t always what they seem!! Their story has all the Feels, cuz it’s one helluva ride!!! This was hands down an Amazing conclusion to Lyla and Beau’s story!! Absolutely a 5 star read!!!!

Conclusion of Beau and Lyla's story.

This is the second book in Beau and Lyla's story, please be sure to read Tangled Rose before reading this book. With her past coming back to bite her in the butt, Mandy trying her best ruin everything and her mother's problems being set on her shoulders, Lyla has her work cut out for her if she wants to make something of her life. Beau has always had people come to him for favors, always wanting something from him; he doesn't trust easily, will trusting Lyla be a mistake? Great read, loved their story.

This whole series is so well done and that just shows how well this author can right. All the books have big feels and grip you forcing you to fall in love with the group of friends. I mean it all the characters are so loveable you can't help but message the author to make sure your fav character has a store to tell because you don't want to miss it. Beau and Lyla's story was no different. I can't wait to keep reading what comes next.

Fallen Rose is the conclusion to Lyla and Beau’s story. Wow! Their chemistry is off the charts HOT! I may or may not have fanned myself a few times. I love Lyla’s fierceness and Beau’s ability to treat her as she deserves all the while accepting her as she is. I highly recommend reading this series of books!

I absolutely loved Lyla and Beau. Beau was definitely one of my favorite friends when I first began the series and after reading Lyla and his books, he became even more of my fave. The way that Lyla grew up, it made sense that she was the way she was. She was used to taking care of herself and having to deal with everything on her own, it was hard for her to let anyone else in.

With each book I read, I fall more and more in love with these characters and Leila James. Amazing job!!

This is an amazing series from book 1 to book 6. All of the characters in this book come alive and go through such a journey that it’s hard to put the book down no matter which one you are reading. I promise you do not want to miss out.
