Two addicts. One epic love story.
Prepare for the worst.
That’s what Lily and Lo try to do when Jonathan Hale schedules an “important” meeting. The problem: after being swept into the public eye and battling their addictions, they’re not sure what the worst is anymore.
In a sea of many changes—including Ryke & Daisy living with them—Lily realizes that the best part of her fluctuating hormones might just be the worst.
Her sex drive is out of control.
Loren knows that she’s insatiable, but he’s not giving up on her. She’s too much a part of him. And as he carries more and more responsibility, some of the people that he loves doubt his resolve.
In the conclusion to their love story, Lily & Lo stand side-by-side to fight, one last time, for their happily ever after.
**AUTHORS' NOTE**Due to the 2-year gap between Addicted for Now (Addicted #2) and Addicted After All (Addicted #3), you must read Thrive (Addicted #2.5) or the Calloway Sisters spin-off series before reading Addicted After All.
Welcome back, Lily and Lo. Not that they’ve gone too far, but it was nice returning to a story that is centered on them.
The amount of emotional growth Lo has experienced throughout the series is very apparent in this book. He is a man now, and a very decent, strong, and level-headed one at that.
Although Lily continues to battle her sex addiction, she is more in control than ever. She is goofy and sometimes immature. However, I suspect that her quirkiness is part of her true nature that was not as evident previously because she was overcome with her addictive tendencies. Her quirks are adorable.
The descriptive writing seems more repetitive here. Maybe I just didn’t notice it before, but I found it distracting. For example, I don’t understand the fascination with eye color. Rose is know for her steely glare, but I lost count of the number of times her “yellow-green” eyes is emphasized. Is it really that important?
There is a load of absorbing family drama as well as lots of humor in Addicted After All. It’s just what I’ve come to love and expect from this entertaining series.
Erin Mallon and Charles Carr once again give voices to Lily and Lo in the audiobook. As expected, they turn in stellar performances while bringing the characters to live.

I love their books but I never tried the audiobooks before. But I think I added the Like Us audible version to the ebooks 🤔
It was fun getting back to Lily & Lo with this one. I don’t remember the descriptive stuff, but it’s been so long since I read it.
