Magnolia Parks: The Long Way Home (The Magnolia Parks Universe)

How many loves do you get in a lifetime? And are Magnolia and BJ each other's one and only? 

It’s been nearly a year since everything happened between Magnolia Parks and BJ Ballentine on the steps of the Mandarin Oriental, and since then it seems like everything has changed.


Magnolia has a life in New York now and BJ appears to have finally let go and moved on.

But when they both wind up back in London and are thrust together once again, they find themselves asking their age-old question: How many loves do you actually get in a lifetime, and, most important—are they each other’s?

Absolutely obsessed with Magnolia and BJ
I read this as an in between book between 2 dark books I wanted to read and I wanted something light and fluffy but this was not LIGHT.
I loved their emotional roller coaster of a relationship.
I felt devastated for Magnolia the whole time but I ate this book up so quick, 5 star read for me!

This series has me in a chokehold. I’m obsessed with these characters, not in a healthy way, in a Magnolia and BJ kind of way.
It’s ridiculous because during the whole book I’m scoffing at how ridiculous these 2 act towards each other, every LITTLE things sets them both off, BUT I AM EATING IT UP. The lows ARE low. They hurt, they break me, they make me so sad. BUT THE HIGHS??? I’m literally kicking my feet, giggling like a little girl when they banter and go back and forth once again. The ending was devastating.
I can’t wait for the 5th book.

I have not read a book in so long that encapsulates me the way this one did from the very beginning! I was so aggravated, and excited reading about Parks and BJ that it reminded me of how well of a job Jenna did developing the characters. I eagerly await the next book in Magnolia’s series.
