About the Book:
The third and final novel in Paullina Simons’ unforgettable End of Forever saga concludes Julian and Josephine’s heartbreaking love story that has spanned lifetimes.
They were ready for anything…except the end
Julian has lost everything he ever loved and is almost out of time. His life and death struggle against fate offers him one last chance to do the impossible and save the woman to whom he is permanently bound.
Together, Julian and Josephine must wage war against the relentless dark force that threatens to destroy them. This fight will take everything they have and everything they are as they try once more to give each other their unfinished lives back.
As time runs out for the star-crossed lovers, Julian learns that fate has one last cruel trick in store for them–and even a man who has lost everything still has something left to lose.
My Review:
“How does a man live, when he must live without the thing he can’t live without?”
What a perfect conclusion to this epic series! Once again the narrator Jeremy Arthur was outstanding.
I am going to say right up front that I am shocked this series has not received more attention. This epic saga is well worth the three-book commitment and each audio book was simply fabulous! I am saddened that the publisher does not even have the proper editions listed on Goodreads. (Where is the audio book? There are only Audio CD’s listed.) Each book is well worth an Audible credit and the series as a whole was just phenomenal.
In this final book in the series, Julian travels back in time once again to search for Josephine. He is physically and spiritually exhausted but cannot live without the love of his life. The author is a meticulous researcher and it shows in her depiction of WWII London during the blitz. The details are amazing and the listener is placed right into the middle of the horrors of war.
Not only a beautiful and (literally) timeless love story, this saga is also about the unbreakable bonds of friendship and loyalty. Julian’s best friend Ashton is a major part of this series and his character added depth, humor and wit to the story. I loved Ashton and his family and how the author tied all of the characters together throughout the different time periods. Pay attention to all the details, no matter how trivial, because everything is related in the end.
“Your heart searches all its days for something it cannot name.”
My heart!! Julian’s longing for Josephine is what drives this amazing story. Although I felt the first part of this third book dragged a tiny little bit, as a whole the book is a fantastic and epic love story that is set among many different and colorful backgrounds. I devoured the last part of this book and felt like I said goodbye to old friends by the end.
I adore this trilogy and will remember Julian and Josephine for a long time to come. Fans of epic romance should give this series a try. It is truly epic.
