Description

No one prepares you for love.

You read about it in books, watch it in movies and on TV. You fantasize about that special someone, and if you’re lucky, you find him.

My great love was hidden behind a sexy smile and a tortured soul.

I never saw Sebastian coming. He was the infamous college senior at our private college. Dark rumors surrounded him, guys were afraid of him, and girls obsessed over him, my best friend included.

I just wanted a job. To my surprise, Mr. Tall, Dark and Mysterious delivered.

A friendship formed and desire followed.

We kept our distance, until we didn’t.

After that, life was a rush of sensations filled with highs and lows, accusations and betrayals, acceptance and love, and ultimately, loss.

No one prepares you for that, either. A pain so deep your soul aches.

If I hadn’t taken a risk that lead to a dare and the claiming of my heart, I wouldn’t have known Sebastian. I wouldn’t have this story.

Advance Praise

"The Forever Series,” a new adult contemporary romance is like nothing I have read in many years. This author really knows how to fan the fires of romance, as they say. She misses no opportunity to entice in this very flirtatious, fantastic series of books."

- Amazon VP reviewer


"The “Forever Series” is a compilation of three serial novels plus a bonus novel in the male protagonist’s point of view - written by Tara Gallina. I am a fan of this author, and I was thrilled that I was able to purchase this set and read the “serial” series in order. I was surprised by how quickly I read all four installments."

- Amazon VP reviewer


"In all ways, gripping! I could not put these books down."

OMG this is an absolutely amazing series and I couldn't put it done as it was so addictive. I loved Sebastian and Ainsley and how they interacted with each other and the connection and chemistry between them was off the charts hot and I couldn't get enough of them. They have both gone through so much in there lives and I got so emotional reading what had happened to both of them. This is the first book that I have read by Tara but definitely not the last as she is an incredible author and talented writer and I can't wait to read the next book in this amazing series. I definitely recommend you read this series and you will definitely not be disappointed.

A lovely set of books (this is the complete series comprising of 4 books) it was an entertaining read, lots of emotion, tension and great characters. I loved the fact you got different perspectives rather than just the main character. A really addictive series and highly recommended

Received as an ARC from netgalley and really enjoyed it. Great characters and storyline and liked how the author showed the point of view of both characters for what happened. Would highly recommend reading! Can't wait to read more from this author in the future

When I first saw the Forever Series, I thought it would be the typical college romance- young, innocent, virgin girl meets the rich, gorgeous, aloof stranger.. and it is that but then so much more. It definitely had more depth to it than others I’ve read. I loved the build up to Ainsley and Sebastian’s relationship, not to mention the friendship between him and his roommates. The characters were likeable (except Harper, for obvious reasons) and well developed. I just couldn’t put it down.

Consider me pleasantly surprised by how good this was. The Forever Series was actually a really fun read. It was so intriguing, I flew through it despite having such a large amount of work to do this month.

I couldn't put it down for too long, before my mind started to wonder what was going to happen next.

My expectations going into this was not that high, especially because I've had some very mediocre, if not plain horrible, reading experiences lately. Surprisingly, this wasn't trashy or cringey in any way. The story flows and develops at a steady pace, building up tension, suspense and action with each volume that you read. It would have driven me insane had I not had all volumes to read. That being said, I would suggest people read at least the first three volumes together to get the full effect of the story. The "romance" develops at a good pace, nothing is too rushed, with feelings and random behaviour coming out of nowhere to further the plot. Everything flowed perfectly! There were some things that may have been a tad bit unrealistic, but what do I know about the mafia and how they operate or how people would behave being a part of this world.

Honestly I give this series a 4.5 star rating.

A lot of adult romance books in this genre come across as very forced, cringey and off putting, but Tara did a really good job at making this feel real. Also, the romance elements, were so good! I just love how organic Sebastian and Ainsley's relationship was.

NOTE: I have not read Vol 4 yet, which is from Sebastian's perspective. BUT, I will write a more in-depth review for this on my blog, including my thoughts on Vol 4.

I got completely lost in this series. I have a big soft spot for a bad boy good girl romance and this definatley hit the spot. It was such an easy read that I found myself up till the early hours itching to know where it was going. The ending was a tad predictable but overall it was an enjoyable read that kept me wanting more.

One of my favorite tropes is forbidden romance and this series does not disappoint. It has everything you would want in romance sex, romance, hot characters, steamy scenes. Would highly recommend!!!

A good read which keeps you hooked. There is friendship, love, jealousy. The last part of the book in Sebastian's pov felt unesserary and repetitive. The rest of the series is worth a read
