The Do-Over

This book was my most anticipated book of the year and it DID NOT disappoint. TL Swan only writes magic. Her stories are captivating, heartfelt, hilarious and unforgettable. I am telling you.. this woman can do no wrong and she just keeps proving it over and over. This book was everything and honestly it might be my new favorite.

I have been (in)patiently waiting for a Christopher’s book and it didn’t disappoint! I loved his and Hayden’s love story and all of the travelling aspect. There is so many touching moments in this book, especially between Christopher and Eddie. All of the classic TL Swan banter and steaminess! A fantastic summer read.

I never, ever thought anyone would surpass Tristan but Christopher has done it! I loved everything about this book. Of course there were tears but true to T.L. Swan's style, the Miles brothers make you laugh out loud. Christopher's growth and realizations from the beginning of the book until the end played out nicely.

While reading the series in order isn't necessarily a must, it makes the collective stories that much better. I'm so sad we've run out of Miles brothers. Truly one of my favorite series of all time.

It is fully possible that there will never be a hotter literary group of brothers than the Miles brothers by T L Swan.

When I heard that Christopher Miles was getting his own book, I simply knew that I had to get my hands on it as quickly as possible. After being told time and time again that he is out of touch with reality, playboy Christopher decides to spend a year backpacking- without disclosing his identity to anyone he meets.

I loved the premise of this book, Christopher is of course sexy as sin, and it really did a great job of showcasing chosen family. However, because it encompassed the course of more than a year and locations around the world, I often felt that the pacing of the book was a little disjointed. At times, while still extremely spicy, the sex almost felt like it was put into the book just to give the reader what they expected of a Miles Brother story, but between the sheets, the main characters had little chemistry.

I wanted to love The Do-Over after devouring the rest of the Miles High series, but sadly, Christopher's story left me feeling a little more than "meh."

Like most of TL Swan books, I devoured this one. Christopher and Hayden story is unconventional and interesting, a rich playboy faces reality scenario. I have enjoyed the series, and The Takeover is by far my favorite of the Miles brothers. Though The Do-Over is very different it was not comparable in my mind. Some aspects of the story seemed rushed just to complete the series, for example the reason for Christopher's attachment problems was not very realistic. Inserting Hayden's old love interest was sporadic and confusing. I will still be a fan of the authors work and am excited to read the extended epilogues about the other brothers.

*Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for an ARC in exchange for an honest review*.
Warning - This review contains spoilers for the whole book.

The Do-Over was one of my most anticipated romances of the year but unfortunately it was a huge disappointment. It follows the final Miles brother Christopher and his love interest Hayden. Christopher decides to go backpacking after living an extremely privileged life. In Spain he meets Hayden who is also backpacking. They get on well and embark on a relationship.

I enjoyed seeing the Miles brothers and enjoyed their banter. It was great to see Jameson and Tristan and how their lives were progressing. But this was the only part of the book I enjoyed.

Christopher was way too entitled for my liking and he never changes. He loves having money which is fine but thinks he is better than everyone else. I read books for escapism not to read about a hero that doesn’t care about anyone else. He tells Hayden that his job is more important than hers without considering that the only reason he has the job is because his family owns the company. Nepotism is not cute. "I will not be judged for having money... my parents have worked fucking hard to build the Miles empire What... does she think she's above it?

There was so much shaming of other women and I just can’t stand to read that in 2022. For example a woman has a lot of body hair and is shamed by Christopher for it and it was not funny. He compares her to a gorilla. "It's gorillas in the mist down there." A woman flirts with Christopher and says she is a model so Hayden says "Only Fans, I bet". Even if she was an Only Fans model what does it matter. Fuck-bunny hobag is used. Every woman wants to fuck Christopher and I am so over that in 2022. Women like Bernadette was an unhinged sex obsessed woman as she says referring to Christopher "When I find a snack in my bedroom, what do you expect."

The jokes weren’t funny. They were so juvenile and it was like being back in school. Christopher shames a guy for not wearing deodorant. Wow, so funny. Jokes like this . . . "Bangkok? Banging my cock sounds like a job I would actually want." The hero also ends up projectile vomiting which is so romantic.

Christopher and Hayden start sleeping on the same bed randomly and then the heroine is grateful that he hasn’t slept with anyone in two months. Talk about the bare minimum. Then he lies about who he is for a huge part of the book which of course causes the typical conflict.

Christopher and Hayden are together and they go and meet Hayden’s family. Hayden’s family live on a farm and are clearly not as good as the Miles’ because the author made clear attempts to diminish them. For example, Hayden’s mother will only serve offal which everyone at the table has to eat. "Offal? I frown. You know, like brains and kidneys and stuff."

Then they break up because Christopher can’t do long distance relationships because he needs sex which to me proves he doesn’t really love Hayden. They are not a good match together and clearly wanted different things in life.

Overall this was so disappointing. I was so excited for it and thought I would love it. Everything in this book has been done before by this author. It felt very similar to Elliot’s book in terms of character dynamics. I truly feel I don’t know anything about Christopher. He is so bland and faceless to me. The only thing I do know is that he loves money and sex with multiple women. I didn’t have a good time reading this and for that reason I have to give it a 1 star review. Also there is going to be an extended epilogue book of the Miles brothers and that feels like a cash grab to me.

TL does it again with the 4th book in the Miles High Series. The Do Over is Christopher’s book; Christopher realizes that his life is very shallow and that he doesn’t truly know who he is. So he decided to take a year off and go “backpacking”. During his stay in a hostel he meets “simple country girl” Hayden and is forever changed.

The Do Over was absolutely a 5 star read for me! The banter and humor that sets TL’s writing apart was sooo good in this one. I didn’t think I could laugh harder than I did in The Takeover, but I may have just laughed out loud more so in The Do Over.
I just love the Miles men! I love the journey that TL takes us on with them and how they evolve and learn so much from the women they love. Christopher was no exception to this and among all the brothers I think had the biggest growth and development.

Hayden was a strong woman who knew herself well and stood up for that. However, she too can’t resist a Miles 😉

book: The Do-Over
by: T.L Swab
5/5 ⭐️

Christopher, Christo, Chris…where do I even begin?! This book had a little bit of enemies to lovers, friends to lovers, and one and only feel. This book had me hating him one minute and loving him the next. The “do-over” premise was introduced in Tue Casanova, so I was excited to see how Christopher’s adventure would be and now I have and it was SO good! My favorite thing about this book is Hayden is just a super relatable character compared to the other three female leads in the series. The way she was described, she was your girl next door. Their banter and arguments were just so funny. And unlike the other three, you definitely see a lot of growth in Christopher and I appreciated that the obstacle they had to go through wasn’t Miles Media related but something deeper and more substantial. This was such a good end to a very sexy, smart, and witty series. I am so excited for the release to get my hands on my physical copy and add Christopher in with the rest of his brothers. 😍🥰🤍💯

I have been waiting for this final installment in the Miles High Club series and have to say that it definitely does not disappoint!! The feels in this book are exhilarating and I would catch myself laughing out loud, smirking, swearing, sweating, and emotionally crying… the whole gamut. Loved the scenes with all the brothers and other cast of characters from her other books. This book is one for the times and I can’t wait to read it again. Love, love , love this baby… ok not enough said but definitely read this one.

2.5/5 ☆

This was just okay. Felt a bit all over the place and the writing wasn’t my favorite. Christopher wasn’t super likable either and Hayden was a pushover. Don’t think anyone will top Tristan for me.

Sexy, sexy, sexy is how I would describe THE DO-OVER by T L Swan. I've only read one other book in her Miles High series, but I must go back and read the others.

When a series involves a family and their romance stories, particularly male characters, it can be tricky. I think
T L does a good job of navigating all these characters. We get glimpses into their lives post their "own books." And that's a lot of fun.

THE DO-OVER is Christopher Miles' story. I have mixed feelings about this character. He's super entitled and a brat. He's also a perfectionist trying to keep up with his successful brothers in business AND romantic lives. This is his big obstacle to overcome.

This book starts with Christopher and two other women after a "tryst" so just know it's a bit risque.

I liked Hayden's character and the way she was determined to teach Christopher how to love. However, they both seemed to not want to grow. In the end, of course, they compromised, but it was a long struggle to get their. Then again, that's the beauty of these types of romances, no?

Most of the book is set during their year-long backpacking adventure. For me, I wasn't a fan of the wandering characters journey. I'd rather a corporate setting because that's the "Miles High" series. But, I liked how the side characters were featured AND they stuck together with the same pack throughout the story.

I read the book quickly and that's always a sign it's a good one!

Thank you NetGalley and Amazon Publishing UK for an e-copy of THE DO-OVER to review.

I rate THE DO-OVER by T L Swan four out of five stars.

There is something about the Miles High Club series that makes me instantly drop what I'm doing to devour. I thought Tristan was safe in his spot as my favourite Miles man but in walks Christopher who is grumpy, playful and full of sass. I made the mistake of reading this on the train yesterday and was laughing like a maniac. I was going to say I will miss this series but knowing there is an extended epilogue book coming next makes me super happy. This series is without a doubt one of my ultimate comfort reads.

Pack you bags and let's go on an adventure. Because that is what I call The Do-Over by T.L.Swan. A swoony, entertaining, spicy and incredibly emotional adventure. Christopher and Hayden made me laugh till my cheeks hurt, gave me all warm fuzzy feels and captured my heart. Another perfect masterpiece from T.L. Swan. Get ready for the ride.

Billionaire playboy Christopher Miles is having an existential crisis. To find himself, he decides to go backpacking..without money and without his real identity. And on his first stop in Spain, he meets Hayden. He was trying awkwardly to deal with the simplest things of life as he never had to worry about these before. Sweet and sassy Hayden slowly gets under his skin. But the question is: can he really commit putting aside his fears? What will happen when Hayden comes to know about his true life?

Christopher is an adorable ahole. Ahole..not in the bad way. He is the youngest Miles and he was born into riches. So it was a shock to him to experience life in such raw form. And he behaved a bit snobby initially. It's a long way from the billionaire playboy penthouse to a stinking backpacker's hostel. But he is so nice at the core. He adapted fast. He made friends. He showed that he care about people. He asked questions about himself even when the answers were not always pretty. And damn he is sexy as sin! His arrogance, his c0cky charm, his scorching hot sex appeal..all add to the list of reasons he is an epic hero. But, for me, the most attractive part was his vulnerability. He wants perfection and control but his trip and Hayden stripped him off every pretensions. He fall hard and fierce and that unsettled him. He gets angry when losing control, he gets irrational when things go down but his way of loving Hayden is magnificent.

And our billionaire bad boy needed someone exactly opposite like Hayden to destroy the walls. This woman is awesome. She comes from country and she loves her family farm and her unique job. She is kind and goofy and hilarious and also absolutely fierce. She love the Christopher without money or fame. But she didn't let him bulldoze his way through her life later. Her dreams and aspirations are equally important.


The author took me around the world through some interesting setups, amazing people and intriguing experiences. I cannot remember the last time I had so much fun in a romance. Hayden and Christopher had a flirty and hilarious beginning. Loads of swoon, bonding time, slow burn and emotional build up. And then the flood gate opened and I went from smiling like a lunatic to clutching my heart in pain of angst. It was such a beautiful conundrum. It was an emotional rollercoaster for sure. I was laughing one moment, and the next moment the hard hitting emotions wrecked me. I was a mess of smile, tears and feels.

PS Extra points for the amazing sex scenes those were not just deliciously dirty, filthy and nuclear hot..they were also witty and took the story to next level.

PPS THE BROMANCE IS EPIC
I reviewed an early copy voluntarily through Netgalley and Montlake

I love all the Miles men but Christian holds a special place in my heart now, his naivety and humor had me smiling throughout the whole book🤌🏻🥰

Fantastic book! The characters are easy to follow. Was able to read the book in less than a day and was intriguing throughout! Several twists keep the book engaging.

Thank you, Netgalley and Amazon, for giving me the chance to read and review this!!

I've been anticipating the 4th installment to this series since I read the 3 other ones last year!

I think this one takes a bit to get into/like Christopher. The beginning part was very rough for me to read. I understand part of it was just his bachelor personality that he's trying to let go of. Still, a lot of the language and vocabulary used towards women, sleeping around, and sex felt like overkill. It was just too much and slightly cringey to read those conversations. Christopher's narration, and even Hayden's at times, were tinged with a bit too much sexism for my taste.

However, it does get better! Once his and Hayden's friendship starts growing and Christopher's on the trip longer, it seems like they both come into their own (especially Christopher), and reading became effortless. I liked that this story showed a lot of introspection on Christopher's end; I didn't see that as much in the 3 other books. He definitely had the most to grow out of, and I think Swan did a good job making that happen. The pacing is relatively fast once the characters start coming into their own. I liked it much more in the middle and later half of the book. It's filled with many cute, sentimental, and funny moments. And I loved the different settings and where their trips take them; it felt like I was living through the characters themselves. I'm also always a sucker for when characters in past books/other works get mentioned, so I loved seeing the rest of the Miles men and other ones from other Swan's other series mentioned. Not to spoil anything significant, but that one scene on the boat was so incredibly funny; I'm so happy she included it.

I will say it's slightly predictable, especially if you've read the other 3 in the series. They all essentially follow the same formula, especially with that third and final act. However, I think T.L. Swan always ends her books on a perfect note; she gives a satisfying ending for both romantic interests that doesn't feel like one is getting more than the other.

The one thing I will remark on is that I felt some hesitancies with one character's storyline...It felt a bit white-savior-esque, especially with the character's actual life revealed towards the end (I don't want to spoil anything too much). I think a sensitivity reader would have been a good idea in this case, just so that that feeling of uncomfortableness could have been avoided. It was sweet and sentimental, but I'm also torn on it.

Overall, I think this makes for a great, quick, easy, romance beach read! I enjoyed it. I'll admit The Takeover with Tristan is still my favorite in the series, but if you've read any of the other 3, this one is a must-read so that you can see how all 4 brothers journey and where they end up. Only giving this one 3 stars because of my hesitances at the beginning and that other questionable storyline.

So, yes, still very much worth a read, and I definitely think any romance reader will fall in love with Christopher and his journey. I'm so sad to see the end of the Miles series but happy to have now read the lives of all of these characters. It feels like a bittersweet ending! Excited to see what else T.L. Swan has in the future (hint: make another series following different groups of friends/siblings cause I'm a sucker for them).

This book had me laughing out loud. Christopher is hilarious. When he decides to go on a year long backpacking trip everyone thinks he has lost his mind and honestly I agreed. When he gets to Spain and meets his roommates in the hostel it’s rocky at first because Christo is a fish out of water living in another world. They become quite the friend group and travel together, work crazy jobs and looked after each other along the way. One of them being Hayden. At first Hayden though Christo was a player but they became the best of friends and over time they became each other’s everything. This book had me laughing, made me feel emotional and then at the end made me love Christopher so much. He’s such a good guy under all the Miles wealth. Can’t wait to read the extended epilogues. I need more from the Miles Brothers. I received an ARC of this amazing book.

I don’t even know where to start with this, because this book was *literal perfection*. I felt alllll the emotions: I laughed so hard I snorted, I was frustrated at the real life scenarios Christopher and Hayden found themselves in, and I teared up as they made their way to their HEA.

Christopher Miles is a billionaire playboy that no one takes seriously. Hayden Whitmore is a cautious farm girl who has never traveled. They both find themselves staying in a hostel on a 12 month backpacking trip in Spain.

This was a friends to lovers story with THE BEST banter - the brothers’ interactions are so spot on, Hayden and Christopher’s flirting, basically anything Chris thinks or says. Christopher’s personality is distinctively carved out and he is simply put, my favorite TL Swan guy now. I SWOONED.

Hayden and Christopher’s story felt so organic and natural, I felt like I was spending time with my friends. I did not want this to end. These have legitimate issues to overcome and Sean does that realistically (although I definitely was mad at them for not figuring out the answer earlier lol). I read this in about 4 hours bc it’s that good. Props to TL Swan for dropping in 3 old friends, too ☺️

I really enjoyed this one. And to be honest this one could stand on its own, you really woundnt need to read the other three, IMO. This was the FUNNIEST out of the whole series. I thought Tristan meeting Claire's kids was funny, but this one had so much more humor! It was steamy of course. I enjoyed that this one was in a totally different environment than the others. Christopher... while I wanted to slap him, I also wanted to hang out.

Christopher surprised me at every turn, such a lovely story and an interesting pivot from the other brothers. If you love the miles men you’ll love this brother, but know it won’t follow the usual pacing and enjoy every moment!

The Do-Over - T.L. Swan
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️.75

“We are not calling our farm Bumfuck, Nowhere, Christopher.” “Why not?” He kisses me again. “Hopefully there’s going to be a lot of bumfucking going on here.”

Christopher 👏🏻 Chris 👏🏻 To 👏🏻 Pher!!!!!

This book was gold pure TL gold!!!

The banter and chemistry between Christopher and Hayden was perfection! Their story was sweet and frustrating and superb!

Christopher is hands down my favorite Miles brother. He was just adorable and sexy and REAL.

My only disappointment was he didn’t get an epilogue and I needed more of an ending!! The GOOD news is we are getting a BOOK of epilogues for all boys!!!

“His eyes search mine, and I smile softly. My tiger is tamed.”

I have mixed feelings about this book. I had hoped, based on their interactions in the previous books, that Christopher would be more like Tristan and therefore so would his book. (It's no secret that The Takeover is one of my favorite books ever) This just fell flat for me though. It wasn't a long book, but it dragged in parts and felt longer than it was. At 87% I was staring at the screen thinking "how in the world is this going to resolve itself" and the ending seemed super rushed and honestly a little frustrating given how everything had blown up previously. I also found the timeline a little hard to follow. All that being said, it was so freaking fun to see the Miles brothers and their women again. And Harry and Patrick!! The scene on the yacht with those surprise characters was *chefs kiss* I was laughing so hard. Well done. Please, please, please I need an extended epilogue with all of them one more time.

Wow! I’m obsessed with Christopher after this book. Straight up 5 star read for me. I loved all the characters including the side characters we met along the way. This book is tied with ‘The Casanova’ for me as my favourites in the series.
I’ve been counting down to August 30th to read this book so was absolutely thrilled to manage to get an ARC of it. I’m in love with this full series! I love that all the brothers are slightly different but that each journey was still captivating and never felt repetitive.
I burst out laughing multiple times at Chris’s one liners.
I’m sad that the Miles high series is coming to an end as we have somehow ran out of brothers to read about. However I was delighted to see at the end of this book that there will be a new book with extended epilogues coming sometime in the future.

I loved this book! This is TL Swan at her very best.

I don’t want to spoil anything but will say, I loved Christopher and Hayden. Their relationship and banter, the guest appearances from the other Miles boys and that surprise announcement at the end of the book (Miles brothers extended epilogue anyone?!) I struggled to put this book down and really enjoyed it. It’s not heavy/ angsty and will definitely give you a good laugh as well as a great story! Highly recommend!

Thank you to Netgalley for the ARC.

This book *sigh* New Boyfriend Alert!

Why T.L. Swan I wasn't ready!!!


Wow! Wow! This might just be my fav from the series {sorry Tristan...}

I'll add the full review after the release :)

I highly recommend this book!

5/5 ⭐️
4/5 🌶️

This was such a great story. The characters, the plot, the ups and the downs, everything about it was perfect. I cried happy and sad tears (and I'm not much of a crier). It was the perfect ending to this amazing quartet of books about the Miles brothers.

Chris rivals Tristan as my favorite brother. He is so dang hot and has such a big heart. I love how he started this book not believing in love and found himself head over heels for a sweet, country girl. Hayden is probably my favorite of the FMCs. I love how strong she was, refusing to let go of any part of herself for a man. In the beginning it was about their physical relationship and in the end it was about her happiness.

The story had my heart aching so many times. It was such a roller coaster of emotions... Between Eddie, the parents, their hurdles and their love I was a mess. Chris's heart was bigger than I ever could have expected and Hayden's rivaled it. TL's books are always laugh out loud funny and The Do-Over was no different, the yacht scenes especially had me rolling. I loved their hostel friends and wish we got to see what their lives got off to. I was so happy we got to have a couple Miles family moments, any time they all get together it's a great time.

I'm sad this series is coming to an end. I swear I could read a dozen books about each brother and never get tired of them. The Stopover surprised me after a friend rec'd it and I fell in love with all four of these amazing men. Looking forward to Miles Ever After and getting to see Chris and Hayden's epilogue.

The Do-Over by TL Swan is the perfect mix of fun, emotional and spicy. The youngest, Christopher Miles sets out to find himself and backpacks through the world where he meets new people, new places, new situations and the one girl that makes him change his mind about love.

I loved that she did not fall to his feet instantly and wasn’t a push over. She let him know how she felt and was emotionally intelligent and the slow burn of their relationship despite the hot chemistry and tension brewing between them. I loved her character so much, she was so sweet, down to earth, quick witted and just so cool. The friend group as well and I loved reading all the adventures and situations they found themselves in. I did enjoy the farm girl and rich boy trope and how their dynamic worked. The book overall for me is 4.6 stars and would’ve been 5 stars, but I wish TL Swan would drop is having the male main character call the love interest the b word when she’s validly angry at him for something he did and wish he would take more accountability for his actions and willingly to see things through her eyes. While he definitely did take some time to get there he was willingly to work on himself and make choices that put her above his needs which I thought was needed for his growth. I also loved seeing his brothers again and their brother relationship that they have with each other and how supportive and full of banter and bickering they are. I also loved the theme of found family and how their story ended. It was absolutely so sweet and emotional and had the perfect ending. I loved it.

As an avid TL Swan fan, The Do-Over is the cherry on the top of the Miles High Series. The story is the perfect balance of humor, romance and spice as I've come to expect from TL Swan books. Christopher's story was filled with emotional depth and we see his and Hayden's characters experience personal and relationship growth. The crossover appearances of other TL Swan characters was such a delight and I cannot wait for more from TL Swan.

Can they make the dream last after they will have to put down their backpacks…

Oh my!
I know it is bad but I needed to read this book, such a full of feel-good sentiments.

My first read by the author was the previous book, Elliot’s story, and it was so emotionally and sensually charged, I did not think I could read a better tale.
But this book while being diametrically different, as not an office romance but a on-the-road romantic journey, exceeded my wishes.

Christopher is the youngest and last unmarried brother from the Miles brood, he oozes and breathes sex, with absolutely no impulse to change his single status until his brothers having fun with him let slip to them he is unable to commit, too spoiled to change his lifestyle and to be the man of one woman and if he were to find her he would be unable to keep her.
It is a kind of awaking for him, as who is he without his name, wealth and city’s comfort. He get everything he wants without so much lifting a finger, he works hard and lives fast, a social sexual being.
Thus the sabbatical year to discover himself.
Hayden, after her breakup with her boyfriend, has withdrawn from social life, she has her job, her family and for two years it has been enough. Why embarking into the unknown alone is quite a jump for her, but a needed respite to let the past go and start anew. She is a down to earth quiet woman, checking out things and places from her bucket list, meeting new people and learning to live a little out of her usual bubble, not looking for grand things, just experiencing life as best she can.

When they first meet, they immediately clash, pretty city boy and country girl, and while he hides who he is, at time, he struggles to let his old way behind while Hayden learns to open and trust again. They become fast friends after the first bickering moments. They complete one another as she comes out of her shell and he reveals the man behind his name but with him hiding who he is back to normal life and she a commitment kind of girl, will things go spiraling down or can they make it work in the long term…

This is a beautifully written love story but also the experience of a lifetime, to have the courage to leave everything behind and begin again with no judgement from people around as they are all in this together.
While it is an intense moving read it has also its fun and witty instants as they all adapt to make this journey unforgettable.
Hayden and Christopher’s journey is an heartrending one, leaving you shattered but sentimentally fulfilled and demanding more of them, of Hayden, Christopher and Eddie.
5 stars

I have been granted an advance copy by the publisher, here is my true and unbiased opinion.

I have to admit I was worried I wouldn’t like Christopher for a good part of the book. I mean he was a spoiled, immature brat. But those chapters where he got set up and started backpacking and staying at a hostel were epically funny. And then, this author did a masterful job unraveling the onion that is Christopher. But she did so realistically and I’m such a way that never made you feel like Christopher made a 180 immediately, which so many stories do, when dealing with a bad boy. I also adored Hadley and add in Eddie and this was a fun, fantastic story that kept my attention throughout. My only complaint was that the ending was a little abrupt, tied up a little too neatly. And while we got to see his brothers throughout the book, we didn’t see the wives- would have been nice to follow up a little with them too. But still, a fun and fantastic addition to this series.

Christopher is living the high life, wine & women whenever he wants, but when people start pointing out how entitled he is he takes a look at his life and realises something need to change. He decides to go backpacking through Europe for a year (at 31 which I found odd). He is incognito as he doesn’t want anyone to know how rich he is. On his first day he meets Hayden, a down to earth farm girl who immediately recognizes him as a player and decides they should just be friends. They become part of a group of backpackers who decide to travel around together and they become increasingly close. Things really heat up between them, but I didn’t like what Hayden kept calling him,. He was very arrogant and expected Hayden to fit into his life and wasn’t willing to compromise. She wanted to be with him but received quite a shock when she saw what his normal life was like. I am a fan of TL Swan and the Miles High series is my favourite series by her so I was really looking forward to reading this book, but I was quite disappointed. I just couldn’t connect with the main characters. I liked to addition of Eddie the teenage bartender and how they looked out for him but things that happened with him didn’t make sense to me.

4⭐️ 4🌶

This book took me on an emotional roller coaster. Christopher and Hayden experienced so much personal growth but we’re still flawed and relatable (you know except for one being a billionaire). I loved them, I was infuriated by them, I laughed and I cried.

Christopher especially surprised me with his emotional growth. I’m not going to lie, he wasn’t my favorite of the brothers at the start of the book but his journey showed me how big his heart really was and I absolutely loved him by the end.

Hayden needed some help breaking out of her shell and doing things outside her comfort zone. Christopher and their friends were exactly what she needed. I loved the confidence she gained throughout their travels and it broke my heart when she started to doubt herself. But she was strong, persevered and ultimately found her prince.

My only wish for this book is that we had an epilogue right now. I know one is coming and I can’t wait. But right now I’m left missing a little glimpse of their future and I can’t let it go. I’m too attached to these characters.

I’ve become emotional invested in the whole Miles clan and I am sad that their series is coming to an end. I’m ready to reread the series again just so I don’t have to say goodbye.

I am a huge TL Swan fan. I’ve read several of her books and The Miles High Club series is one of my all time favorite series. I have been patiently waiting for this book and was SO excited to get an ARC of it. This book is AMAZING. I loved it. I read it in a day. It was such a fun story and I absolutely love Christopher and Hayden. There were times where I was laughing so hard and other times where I was crying and so full of emotions. And the spice was great. What else could you ask for? I’m sad that this is the last love story in this series but it ended in such a beautiful way. Well done TL! It’s a must read for sure!

The 4th Billionaire Miles Brother Christian is a hottttt player known for just that- playing.
He feels like he is at a dead end and wants a change and decides to pack up and go backpacking for a year. Hayden Whitmore is ready for a change in her life and is set to travel for a year and they both end up at the same hostel in Spain... Let the Spice Begin!!

T.L. Swan knows how to write a heart-wrenching, spicy stories that I could truly feel in my heart. Usually the third act misunderstanding is something that is really annoying and does nothing for the plot, but by the third act I felt where the characters were and needed to know how they would get to the HEA that we all love! I loved the whole journey!

The Do-Over is the fourth book of the series and features Christopher, the baby of the family. Christopher doesn’t do relationships, gets laid on the regular, and has more money than he knows what to do with - so why does he feel so empty? In order to prove to himself and his brothers that he is more than just a sex crazed billionaire afraid of commitment, Christopher sets off on a one year backpacking trip - no money, no Miles family perks. What could go wrong?

Like the other books in this series, I could not put The Do-Over down. This friends-to-lovers romance was captivating from the start and I ate up every last word. Hayden and Christopher’s situationship was filled with longing and angst - when things finally heated up, I thought I would spontaneously combust! The backpacking aspect of The Do-Over was perfectly done and lent itself to this being one amazing adventure. The way it all played out in the end was exactly what I had hoped for and yes, I cried a little bit. It’s Eddie’s fault.

I can’t wait to see the Miles family again in the Miles Ever After!

A billionaire travels incognito on a backpacking trip in Europe and falls in love. She isn't interested and just wants to be friends...

Love both characters. They are fun, exciting, sexy and sweet together. I love hearing from the rest of the Miles brothers of course. It was fun seeing them again. A terrific escapist romance. Love it.

Thanks to the publisher for the arc.

It was okay. I feel like you know what you're getting when you read these type of books. Neither of the main characters were particularly likeable. I think I'd rather read about one of the other brothers.

Kindly received an ARC from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

T L Swan can do no wrong. I love The Miles High Club series and Christopher's story had everything I love in romance stories. The banter between his brothers and later on between him and Hayden, who he nicknames Grumps is great. The story between him and Eddie was so heart warming and the ending brought tears to my eyes. This was a great final installment for the series and I absolutely can't wait for the Miles Brothers epilogues. Many thanks to the publisher for an eARC in exchange for my honest review. I'll be recommending this one to all of my friends on pub day!

Chris was NOTHING like I expected. He was so much more than I could have imagined. And Hayden, she seriously is just this perfect dream girl.
I love how unconventional the story of Christopher and Hayden was. This is not your typical billionaire romance - we got to see Chris take a page out of Jameson's book and shorten his name and for a while he wasn't a Miles brother. I loved how TL made you hate him for his billionaire, spoiled youngest child quirks but also made you fall in love with him as he fell in love with Hayden. Seeing them go from friends, to best friends and when they started spooning to dropping "babe" and "baby" and kissing shoulders. I was swooning just as hard as Hayden was!
The pining, the angst, the romance, the family.
Oh also - Eddie. I have so many hearts in my eyes and a massive case of warm fuzzies for this boy and his story.

The highly anticipated fourth book in the Miles High Club series was so different from the others & so much fun. Christopher’s journey of self-discovery was certainly a fresh take on a billionaire romance! There were so many hilarious moments in this story- from buying/packing his backpack, to working impossible jobs- the laughs just kept coming. But, at the end of the day, just like his brothers, Christopher Miles melted me into a puddle. He was, quite possibly, the absolute sweetest, especially given his complete cluelessness. Hayden’s grounded, level-headed personality gave her the upper hand a lot of the time, despite her inexperience, and it was lovely to see them balance each other out so perfectly. The spice was spicy, the HEA was happy (really, really happy), and I wish there were 10 more Miles brothers.

And the final instalment of The Miles High Series did not disappoint.
Christopher is everything. Funny, charming, charismatic and a bit of a donkey. But oh so lovable.
And then there's Hayden, that girl blew my mind. All the usual feels, emotions, frustrations and heartache for one of Tee's books.
It was so good to see the rest of the family too! My heart is so happy!
A massive round of applause to you @tlswanauthor you've written another amazing book!!

I felt like I had mixed opinions on this one! At times, I was unsure about the book, but ended up enjoying the ending. If you have read this series, you will probably enjoy this one!

It breaks my heart to give this rating but my oh my was this a bigger disappointment than the frozen pizza I had for dinner.

It started off really well! I loved the whole 'Let my rich self live like an ordinary pay cheque to pay cheque citizen' and seeing how aghast he is at how us common folk live.

But then things quickly spiralled out of control including Christopher's personality.
It was as if the author didn't know whether to make him the bratty baby-of-the-family character or the entitled, rich, self-absorbed character or the tantrum-throwing rich kid character. This dude was all over the place! One thing does stand throughout, he is entitled, spoilt and so selfish.

Hayden was not much better. She made no effort, NONE, to figure out what she wanted. She just wallowed and appeared at certain places at convenient times. A marshmallow if I ever saw one.

Chris and Hayden never communicated with each other. NEVER!!!! They would spew irrational thoughts, hurt feelings and sleep with each other. When I got to the end of the story, I felt I had no idea who these two characters were.

The Eddie plot was beyond ridiculous and not even I (a soap opera lover) could suspend my disbelief for that particular storyline.

The writing is so clunky and all over the place. I felt like I was having whiplash but without experiencing the impact beforehand. The MULTIPLE time jumps did not work in this story either. (If it's only an hour later, no need to let the reader know by announcing it before the start of the paragraph. I'm sure you can find more creative ways to indicate the passing of time)

With each new book in this series, that hero is my favorite. I wasn’t sure if Christopher was going to make the cut, but holy heck…he totally won me over and wormed his way into my heart. I will not be forgetting him for a long while.

Christopher had a lot to learn as he set out on his backpacking trip across Europe. I thought for sure he’d throw in the mini towel early on, but he stuck it out despite the smells and crazy characters. I began to fall in love with this hero that on the surface didn’t offer much in the way of any emotional depth.

While he was attracted to Hayden from the beginning, this is not the type of storyline where the hero immediately fell in love with the heroine and wanted only her. Instead, he slowly began to transition from the playboy he was into someone that became an incredible hero. Watching it was hilarious, moving and definitely sexy.

I’m really not about the heroine, but Hayden did make her mark with me as she was such a great heroine. When she was struggling, I felt the pain and when she was happy, I was just as ecstatic. She was the perfect counterpoint to Christopher as she was honest and upfront with a background that had given her a sense of calm that she brought into her relationship with him.

When this couple faced a major conflict, I sobbed at the result. I worried that the end was going to be contrived to make things work or that the author would force Hayden into a position that went against who she was at heart. Not so. Along the way to their happy ever after, I found myself crying even more as Christopher took a step that I had been hoping for all along but was unsure of the outcome. While I had plenty of tears in the last part of the book, I had so many laugh out loud moments leading up to it. Literally laugh out loud as in a burst of laughter that I couldn’t contain. So glad I was alone when that happened.

This is a lengthy book and it was difficult to set aside. I found myself thinking about it during those times and anxious to get back into the story. It’s filled with secondary characters that were fun and brought their own humor to the page. That included his family, particularly his brothers as well as Hayden’s father who I loved as he got to know Christopher. These are the types of characters that I’d love to see again in a novella that updates us on this couple’s relationship.

All of that to say, I absolutely LOVED this book and I didn’t even touch on what were some of the steamiest scenes I’ve read in a while. Definitely a fun, sexy, emotional story well worth reading.

Did I just fall in love with another Miles brother? Yes, yes I did. Christopher Miles had me swooning, laughing and crying through this book. He truly has it all. When Christopher starts to realize even though he has everything in life but still feels empty he needs to do something about it. He decides to take a year off to go backpacking. Once he gets there, the hostel he is staying in is a disaster rethinking his plan. Until he meets his new roommate, Hayden. She is smart, sweet, and down to earth the perfect someone for Christopher. They go from strangers to best friends to lovers and the wild ride is so worth it. Their banter with one another was so funny. I loved every minute of their story and growth together. TL Swan has truly done it again with the Miles brothers.

once again, TL Swan has brought us a new swoony billionaire to fall for 😍 This was book four in the miles high club and follows the youngest brother, Christopher.

Christopher has a stark realization that he not living his life as the person he wants to be, after being told by quite a few people in such a short amount of time, he decides he needs to step back from his glamorous life and go on a year long adventure to find his true self.

what i loved most about this was getting to experience the traveling as if i was there with all of them. It truly felt authentic and getting to see the relationships that were built along the way was so special.

another this i loved was the push and pull between Christopher and Hayden. Growing their relationship from strangers to best friends to lovers was a wild experience. They hit so many speed bumps along the way but really tried their hardest to be open and make things work. In the end after so many roller coaster emotions they got their HEA.

One things i couldn’t groove with as well was the time hopping. Though i know it had to be done. given, if we truly experienced all 12 months, the book would never end! But some parts just felt like BAM here we are! that is why i couldn’t give it a full 5 stars.

Overall this book was fabulous and now i just am in love with all the Miles brothers and it just doesn’t seem fair that they aren’t real!!

TL Swan always has a way of having extremely hilarious moments to break up some of the heaviness in her stories… some fun moments that i absolutely loved and will always think about.
1. the taxi/vomit scene
2. christopher being scared of gorilla girl
3. THE YACHT SCENE 😂

I can't cope with overwhelming emotions right now !!!

TL Swan delivers another fantastic read, that had set my heart on fire. This is a goodbye and definitely a bittersweet ending... I love SO much Miles Brothers, that I'm not ready to leave this world.

The Do Over is pure magic. Christopher and Hayden are explosive adventure, TL used her neverending magic, so like always, I laughed my a** off, and ugly sobbed more than often.

Hayden is perfect girlfriend and such a sweetheart, that You can only love with every single heartbeat. You know this feeling, when the sun starting to shine at Your face, after rainy, cold day ???? Hayden is my sunshine, she's different but she's amazing just the way she is. She took Christopher by surprise, and guess what ??? She is exactly everything what he needed!

Friends to lovers never looked so good, People! This is official, but also not surprising 🙃😅... I fall deeply for the last Miles Brother and his Girl ! I can't wait for You all to read this book.

OMG!!!!! I loved this book so much. Christopher won my heart. Even though I'm sad to say goodbye to the Miles brothers, I loved this book. I think I will need a few weeks to recover from this hangover. Definitely a must read.

4.5 ⭐⭐⭐⭐

The Do-Over was able to get me out from my reading slump because how is it possible for me to finish a 553 pages book in less than 12 hours? I'm telling ya, something about TL Swan's writing is just so addictive that I can't help but devour it from page to page.

Up until now, I still can't believe I finally finished reading the last book in this series. All those years of waiting for Christopher's book is totally worth it because this book is just so good. I love everything about it. From the plot, storyline, romance, and characters. Everything is just top tier and TL Swan really delivers it as great as her other books.

Christopher and Hayden is certainly one of my favourite couples who served friends to lovers trope. The attraction has always been there between them from the very beginning but they didn't cross the line since Christopher and Hayden's belief in romance are the complete opposite. Him not believing in long lasting relationship and her cherishing love more than anything else.

Now, I won't be saying anything more to avoid spoiler but these two are just everything! I love them so much! Their chemistry is totally off the chart and the sexual tension? *chef kiss*. Their connection runs so deep that you can literally feel the love that they have for each other. All their moments really stole my heart. There are some funny moments, sweet ones, and even emotional ones.

Overall, The Do-Over was an amazing read and I enjoyed every part of it. Even though this book isn't my most favourite in the series, but it still has its own special buzz that made the book perfect in its own way. Despite it being lengthy, I still kinda wished it was longer. I don't know why but I just needed more. Something about the last few chapters aren't enough for me. But again, it didn't affect my enjoyment or anything.

Anyways, if you love the previous books in the series, then you will certainly love The Do-Over. Highly recommend everyone to give this book a chance. You definitely don't want to miss this!

I am so in love with this book and these characters, it is everything I expected and more, TL Swan did it again because The Do-over is an funny, sexy, sweet and emotional story that captivated me from beginning to end.

I was so excited to read about Christopher and his story and gahhh I loved him so much. Christopher goes backpacking and his first few days are a mess, he made me laugh so hard, and he's so adorable and sexy, and he meets Hayden at a hostel, she is such a sweet and kind girl, she doesn't fall for Christopher's charms like all the girls but she can't help but be attracted to the charismatic Christopher and they easily become friends, but as time goes on the attraction they both feel becomes so hard to hide and wow the tension between them is palpable through the pages. Their electrifying chemistry is off the charts, I loved their dialogues and scenes together so much and I love the Miles brothers so much, together they are perfect.

This book is so good, an amazing slow burn romance, captivating and intense. It's the perfect mix of fun, feelings and steamy scenes that made me laugh, cry and sigh. It's so adorable and cute and I can't get enough of this world and characters, I adore it. definitely highly recommended! Perfect for fans of
Romcom
opposites attract
Billionaire romance
Forced proximity
One bed
Friends to lovers
Slow burn

I love the Miles Brothers and I am so excited I got the opportunity to read an ARC of The Do Over! These billionaire brothers are hot and emotionally stunted, and reading their stories as they mature and find meaningful relationships has been a delightful journey. To say I’ve been anxiously awaiting Christopher’s story since finishing Elliott’s story in The Casanova is an understatement!

Christopher is the youngest, most entitled, and now the only single Miles Brother. Feeling lost and discouraged by a lack of meaning in his life, he opts to take a year off from Miles Media to backpack through Europe incognito with limited funds. Along the way he meets Hayden, a farm girl who has lived a sheltered life and is seeking adventure. Christopher learns he doesn’t really like himself and seeks to improve his outlook on life, including making himself vulnerable and opening his mind to a relationship with Hayden. Problem is…he’s not telling Hayden about his fame & fortune as they grow closer and closer to the end of their travel.

When you read these books, each Miles Brother grows on you in his own way. Tristan is still hands down my favorite, but there’s something to love about every brother and Christopher is no exception! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ - and super excited for the upcoming book of extended epilogues!

“The Do-Over” is a fun, sweet, steamy and emotional story that I devoured in just a couple hours because I could not put this story down. I have loved reading about each of the Miles Brothers and Christopher and Hayden won me over and I loved their bond and relationship.

Christopher Miles is the baby of the family. While he’s worked hard at Miles Media, things have definitely come easier for him. Tired of his brothers giving him a hard time about it, he takes a year off, bringing only 2000 pounds and is going to go backpacking for a year. There he meets a group of interesting people including fellow American, Hayden. Hayden is backpacking for a year after breaking up with her fiance. Hayden isn’t charmed by the Miles swagger at all. But the two form a friendship as they navigate their trip and feelings neither thought was capable make their way to the surface.

This was such a fun book to read. I loved all the Miles Brothers banter and no matter how much they picked on each other, they would do anything to help one another. Christopher definitely was the spoiled youngest son but this trip was what he needed. Hayden was so smart and independent and the perfect match for Christopher. Their banter was top notch and made me laugh so many times. Their relationship transitions so smoothly and you could just see how organically pure it was. Christopher is a delicious dirty talker and that Miles' swagger was on point. I cannot wait to relisten to this in audiobook. I could hear Sebastian York and CJ Bloom in my mind as I read it.

This was my first book from T.L Swan and it did not disappoint. I cannot wait to read the others in this series! I loved the chemistry and banter that Christopher and Hayden had. Also, loved watching the relationship grow. This was a great book and I couldn’t put it down!

Thank you to NetGalley and Amazon Publishing UK for this arc!

So so so so good!! I couldn’t put this one down! I loved seeing Christian mature throughout the books and he comes in close second when it comes to favorite miles brothers (Tristan has my heart). TL Swan has a way of making me swoon, laugh, and cry in all of her books & this 4th installment didn’t disappoint! Also Hayden is my fave miles wife! I adored her!!

Oh my gosh. I loved loved loved this book. I couldn’t put it down. Christo the sweetest man, I absolutely adored it. Finding yourself, finding love, adventures 10/10

Just when I thought TL Swan couldn't get any better, she totally delivered and then some when she wrote THE DO-OVER, the fourth (and last) installment of the Miles High Club series. I don't know what it is about the book, but it really resonated with me. It's by far my favorite Miles High Club.

THE DO-OVER features the youngest Miles brother, Christopher Miles. At thirty-one years old, he is the Head of Marketing at his family's mega media company, Miles Media. His whole life, he's never really had to work hard for anything as it's been handed to him (and his brothers aren't shy to remind him of his privilege). Christopher is blessed with good looks and can get any girl he wants. But the one thing Christopher has not been able to do is have a girlfriend. It's by choice but he can't help but feel a little jealous when he sees his brothers happy with their families. Feeling empty inside, and in an effort to find himself, Christopher decides to take a sabbatical from Miles Media to travel around Europe for a whole year under the guise of a poor backpacker.

At his first destination he meets twenty-five year old Hayden Whitmore at the hostel. They initially bump heads but soon become fast best friends. Hayden isn't Christopher's usual type and they are as opposite as can be. Christopher is a playboy billionaire executive at a media magnate and Hayden is an innocent small-town girl who grew up on a farm and is looking for her Prince Charming. But Christopher is super attracted to her and the feeling is mutual. After being friend-zoned for what seems to be forever, they begin a hot and heavy affair. But can Christopher tamp down his own insecurities to have a real relationship with Hayden? And is Christopher enough for Hayden who's looking for a fairy tale romance?

While writing THE DO-OVER, TL Swan proclaimed that she was in love with Christopher and I have to say, I am, too. He is my favorite Miles brother and I had such a hangover after reading the book. I loved the story and adored Christopher and Hayden together. I loved watching their friendship blossom into real, unadulterated true love. I am sad that the Miles series is over but can't wait for their extended epilogues, Miles Ever After, to come out next Valentine's Day!

Thank you so much, NetGalley, TL Swan and Foreword PR, for the eARC in exchange for my honest review!

I was so excited for this book as I binged the rest of the series at the start of the year.

I feel like this book has a completely different vibes from the others in the series and I actually really loved that.

I'm not going to lie this has made me want to go backpacking for a year to figure myself out.

Watching Chris become a man and not a spoiled, entitled man child was amazing!

Watching his friendship with hayden was beautiful. It was also hilarious seeing them fight their feelings for each other.

I read this in 3 days I 100% recommend.

I am hooked on this series!!! Worth the wait for this one!! I have enjoyed this entire series and T L Swan has become one of my favorite authors. I hope there will be production of this series into a mini series or something in the future. As usual, five stars from me!!!

I was so excited for this book and it did not let me down!! I devoured it in one day and could not put it down! Go read it.

I spent alot of this book going between a 3 and 4 star review. I have loved every single book in the Miles High series. T.L. Swan has a way of writing that pulls you in and gets you invested in the characters, and this book was no different. I will say I enjoyed the second half of the book more than the first half.

I struggled with connecting to the backpacking story. Christopher is in his 30's, and yet the premise of the story felt very new adult to me. The behaviors exhibited felt juvenile at times. However, T.L. Swan's writing, Miles brother cameos, and connection to the characters made this a solid read for me.

This is the final book in The Miles High Club book series! I highly suggest reading the books in order as you will get the best experience of the stories that way!
The final book follows the youngest Miles brother Christopher! He takes off on a year long backpacking hiatus to hide from his identity and discover who he really is! This trip puts a lot of things in prospective for him and he meets amazing friends and Hayden! Hayden was perfect for Christopher and she truly showed him his value. She was patient and understanding. This book had so much in it! I laughed out loud so many times and I also cried! We also get some fun snippets of the other Miles Brothers! T.L. Swan is an amazing author and I can’t wait for me from her!
Thank you to the author and NetGalley for this advanced copy for my honest review.

The Do-Over is 553 pages of amazingness! This book is so much more than I was expecting and I fell in complete love with Christopher and Hayden. There are so many moments where I laughed out loud because they were hilarious, and then a huge chunk of the ending of the book where my heart just broke for them. Christopher is spoiled and can be a bit selfish but you really root for him, you just know he can be better. Then you can see how good he can be when he meets a teenager named Eddie. My heart melted. Hayden is pure goodness and light who takes a year to go off in the world and just live, enter Christopher here. They fight hard for their love and kept me guessing if they were even going to be able to work it out until the very end. I could not put this book down and highly recommend it! This is a must read for anyone!

The book was really easy to follow and I enjoyed the writing style.

Overall Book Review:

The book start out with Christopher coming to the realization that he’s a bit spoiled and entitled. He decided to backpack through Europe to challenge himself.

Christopher meets his love interest Hayden at a hostel. Hayden is a down to earth farmer and Christopher is a big city ceo. Although they are opposites in many ways, they form a beautiful friendship.

Hayden was such a likable character. Calm, patient and understanding.

Overall I really enjoyed this love story. The spice of course was amazing, this is TL SWAN.

Tropes:
- opposites attract
- innocent girl and bad boy
- secret identity

4/5 ⭐️ 3.5/5 🌶

Awesome book. I love finding a great author. I read it in one day. Yes it was a binge. Now I have to read the others she wrote. Cute, funny, emotional, and very entertaining.

5/5⭐️
4/5🌶

This was such a great story and book. I fell in love with the Miles brothers last year and have since re-read the series 2x. This story with Christopher and Hayden was just as good as the other if not better.

I loved seeing Christopher evolve and become his true self. T L swan writes the most hilarious scenes and I was laughing out loud for a lot of this book. I also love how he took care of Eddie throughout the whole book.

Hayden is my fav FMC from this series. She stayed true to who she was and didn’t sell herself short to be with a man. I cried happy tears and sad tears in this book. I loved every minute of it and I need and want the next book.

I loved this series and I’m so sad it’s over. Christopher and Hayden’s story was so wonderful and I really felt Their love. Highly recommend!!

The Do-Over is the final book in the Miles High Club Series, and one of my most anticipated reads of the year! I'm so happy it did not disappoint. I laughed so so much, and truly enjoyed following along their journey.

Christopher and Hayden. Adored them. Great chemistry, hot and teasing banter, and just so fun! The side characters were also great, especially Eddie.

I also appreciated that we got to see a few old faces. I love when previous characters make cameos, especially cross-over ones.

I'm so happy the author is releasing a book of extended epilogues. I can't wait for more of the Miles family.

It's funny how some books, no matter how many pages there are, you can just blow through reading. Because they're that good. Did I stay up all night reading this? Yes. Am I stupid crazy tired? Yes. Regrets? Just that there's no more to read!

Christopher is cocky and sure of himself, and outspoken. And something interesting is that even as he goes on a journey to find himself and falls in love, for the most part who he is doesn't change. He does open his heart more and appreciates people more, but...I don't think I'm explaining it well. Just, he still was cocky and confident and flawed, but fell in love. With Hayden, who loved him for him, but doesn't deserve being lied to. And when these two fight? It's big! They say crappy things to each other, they blow up a bit, it feels realistic.

And then there's Eddie. The kid who stole the show and stole everyone's hearts. He's so awesome, but his part in the story did make me cry a bit. I loved seeing all Christopher's brothers here and there, and I swear I just love this series so much. It's addicting. Any more brothers hiding anywhere that need a story?

Just when I thought I had my favorite Miles brothers sorted, TL Swan has to go and give us Christopher! His lack of filter had me cackling at times and blushing at others.

When we meet Christopher again, he’s still in his playboy ways and its not until its pointed out to him (repeatedly) that he can come across spoiled, entitled and lacking depth that he starts to look inwards, and what’s the only way for him to make a new start for himself? A “Do-Over”.

On his journey to find himself, Christopher finds Hayden, our Heroin who is on a similar self discovery journey. Hayden’s strength is everything I expected from TL Swan, as she knows how to write strong women, but the vulnerability thats displayed tugged at my heartstrings. The fight for each other by also for themselves.

The banter. The spice. The sweetness. The emotion. *Chefs Kiss*

Of course this would not be a true TL Swan book without some hilarious anecdotes from the Miles brothers along with some special guest appearances which I was SO here for. I was heartbroken for this series to be ending, but then Tee decides to give the people what we cant and publish Miles Ever After, a book of extended epilogues for each of the 4 Miles brothers on Valentines Day 2023!

I will now be re-reading all the Miles brothers books and listening them on audio until Valentines Day.

*Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for this ARC in exchange for an honest review*.

4.5 ⭐️ 3.5🌶

This books was amazing!! I loved the dynamic between Christopher & Hayden, so cute. I literally felt ALL the emotions while reading this book, if they laughed then I laughed & if they cried then I cried.

I loved Christopher and his idgaf, my way or the high way attitude (well mostly, iykyk). His very caring, passionate and truly had a big heart 💛

And Hayden, that girl won’t take no shit for nothing. I think that’s what makes them perfect for each other, he can be an ass and she can put him in his place. I think them building a friendship first made it easier for them to fall in love. I feel like if they would have jumped into dating it would have never worked for the two.

Their love for each other, but also their love for Eddie!! 💛

I loved how the story was ended, and how everything worked out. It was a beautiful story 🥰

trope(s): roommates, friends to lovers

There's one thing that you are always guaranteed with a T.L. Swan book, an Alpha male who eventually will show you his gooey insides! Christopher and Hayden are not the only love story that flows through this book, you meet a young boy Eddie as well who will capture you heart. This book has a lot going on, but because the writing is so perfect, you don't notice how much you are being put through emotionally until the end. I felt I was in all the wonderful cities along with these characters, and the ending had me laughing and crying all at the same time! This might just be my favorite MIle's High club book!

The writing style was good and engaging but the story seemed to drag on a bit. While I get the year traveling was when he was trying to find himself but too much time was spent on that part when the true conflict started after the year was over and they had to get to their real lives. About a quarter to half of the first part of the story could have been edited out. Also, I am not a prude but the main male character was pretty vulgar and down right unsympathetic at first. He also became verbally idiotic/abusive during their fights in the second half of the book. I also felt that the female lead didn’t really give herself a chance to thrive in her new environment before throwing in the towel. She literally spent a year traveling but could not find anything to keep her amused or occupied while in London? All in all the story had some good bones but could have been better. I appreciated the resolution but couldn’t figure out why no one thought of it sooner. I would consider reading more from this author but hope the other stories are not quite as drawn out.

Honestly worth the hype in my eyes. I loved following "Christo"'s and "Hayzen"'s story. There was lots of bickering, and miscommunication though. Such a good "end" to this series!

I absolutely loved this series, and the Miles brothers (Tristan is my favorite by far). So to say I was really excited to finally get to Christopher after falling in love with him during Elliots book only to end up having a lot of mixed feelings about this book is a little disappointing.

This book was a roller coaster of emotions. I loved it at times, but it also fell quite flat for me in other moments.

In the beginning Hayden and Christophers banter was so much fun, I loved that she kept putting him in his place for being a spoiled brat. Chris’ charm and flirting was so swoon worthy, and I loved how much of a softy he could be at times. But all of that seemed to instantly change after getting together, Hayden became quite the pushover, while the smallest things could send Chris into hulk mode.

Everything just felt a little too all over the place a lot of the time.

The 3rd act break up and later on reunion left me wanting to be honest, neither of them really even tried to solve anything before breaking up and upon reuniting after so long apart I felt that the moment should have been bigger.

Also, even though I know you shouldn’t go into anything with expectations but I of course did when it came to how hot and heavy I expected Chris to be, especially given how the spice was in the other books and that were told “this is even 100%”, these scenes felt rushed, a bit bland and lacked so much chemistry.

Thank you to NetGalley and the Publisher for giving me this eArc to review.

The do-over follows Hayden and Christopher when they both become roommates at a hostel in Barcelona.

At first I found one of the characters quite hateful and wasn't too fused about the other character either.

I didn't like how they interacted at first but as it went on I quite liked how sweet they were together but they were the sort of couple where they're great when they're good but bad when they're not good. There were a few lies, miscommunication and just not times between them and I honestly really liked the part where they were not together the most.

Christopher has a bit of a hero complex but I do appreciate his anxiety. This book spans over a year so there are a lot of "X weeks later", "X hours later" as well.

I had missed the Miles brothers so much and what a way to end this series! This one is up there with The Takeover as my two favorites. It felt like coming home to these characters and this just read so easily despite being a bit of a longer romance. There were just so many moments that made me smile.

It was a bit of a rollercoaster but I thought the characters were written so well. Their actions and hesitations at times were very understandable, even though it could be frustrating to read. You could really feel the connection between Christopher and Hayden and I just felt for them both so much. Roommates/friends to lovers is a trope that can be hit or miss for me and this was just worked.

And the guest appearance!!!!! I was so shocked and had the biggest smile on my face. It was seriously the best. And Eddie! Absolutely love that kid.

I cannot wait for the epilogue novel even though it will be officially saying goodbye to this series. If you haven't picked these up yet, highly recommend starting with The Stopover!

And thank you to Foreword PR, Net Galley, and the Author for the ARC!

The Do Over by TL Swan
Rating: 3 stars
Steam: 2 chilis

This is my eleventh book by TL Swan so it’s safe to say that I enjoy her writing. I loved the first two books in the Miles High series (Tristan will always be my #1) but unfortunately these last two books have not been my favorite. This book had some great moments and I’ll be thinking about some of them for a long time…but ultimately I was disappointed.

In this fourth installment in the series, the youngest Miles brother, Christopher, decides that he’s going to go backpacking in Europe for a year to prove to his family and himself that he is more than just a spoiled rich boy. He needs to know that he’s capable of making friends and being independent outside of his family’s connections.

It’s while staying in a hostel that he meets Hayden, a “simple country girl” who is taking a trip to get over a broken heart. The two have an instant and complicated connection since she thinks she’s falling in love with a poor janitor and not a celebrity billionaire.

This book has all of the signature sarcasm, hilarity and charm that TL Swan is known for. Christopher has some hilarious responses when things get slightly inconvenient and his alpha tendency towards being protective made me swoon at times. Hayden is unflappable. She takes every situation in stride and somehow manages to put up Christopher’s childishness and immaturity without much complaint.

My issue is that Swan’s MCs are supposed to be these handsome, strong men who are softies for their women. But then a simple disagreement will have them screaming about what a bitch their girlfriend is. Maybe I’m just outgrowing all the drama? And I prefer a little more depth and substance when it comes to my leading men? I have a hard time imagining these CEO billionaires stomping around like children when they don’t get their way. It’s definitely not attractive to me.

The story felt all over the place, physically and emotionally. Swan glosses over the passage of time, making it difficult for the reader to connect with the love story. Months of connection is lost when the author writes ‘six weeks later’ at the beginning of every chapter.

I don’t think Christopher actually grows at all in the story. He finally learns how to compromise at the end but the third act breakup was dramatic and unnecessary. Also, the spice that I’ve come to know and love in this series seemed lackluster here. It didn’t have the usual tension and I wasn’t as invested as I was in the first two books.

I would still recommend this to anyone who has loved this series and has been waiting for Christopher’s story. It’s definitely better than the last book and some of the scenes remind me a lot of the Takeover. This will probably be my last TL Swan book for a while. Although she did announce that she’s writing an extended epilogue for all the Miles brothers, which I will of course be reading. Thank you so much to NetGalley and Amazon Publishing UK for the chance to read this one early. The Do Over will be available on 8/30.

The Do Over by TL Swan
This book comes out 8/30/22 and is the 4th in the Miles High Club series.
This book is about Christopher. Christopher is the marketing specialist for the Miles media group As well as the youngest child. Christopher decided to take a year off and go backpacking through Europe. He hooks up with a group of people he begins traveling with and working with and really enjoys Hayden’s company with her around each other. As the year progresses they become more and more inseparable. Christopher has done an excellent job this entire year not letting anybody know who he really is. All of his friends call him Christo. He tells them that he is a teacher and finally let it slip that he’s a janitor.They do odd jobs to make money to stay afloat and to be able to keep traveling they end up crewing on a yacht where his best mates are. He calls and begged them not to blow his cover. Surprisely they let his secret lie. It’s not until they are getting in the car to head to New York Hayden he tells who he is and that he has lied. But can she trust him?
Thanks to AMazon Publishing UK and NetGalley for this ARC. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

T. L. Swan is back in the final Miles brother series: this time with the youngest brother, Christopher’s story. Filled with spice and friends to lovers, fans will flock to her latest story.

Christopher is a spoiled multi billionaire: he has women flanking at his arms, attitude brooding with every look and clothes fitting an athletic body. Yet, his three brothers cannot stop mocking him and telling him to live on the realistic side. Taking their advice to heart, Christopher sheds his identity and sets off on a twelve month backpacking tour of Europe. Little does he know, his life is about to flip onto its side when a farm girl named Hayden shows up at the hostel.

Hayden instantly regrets packing and hopping on the plane to go to a backpacking trip that is two years in the making. She’s on the trip to find herself again after a tumultuous breakup two years prior. She’s the down to Earth missing puzzle piece to Christopher Miles. Instantly, they turn into friends without the “hanky panky” mixed into the formula.

Yet, things instantly turn into sparks of chemistry as the year of backpacking continues. Will Christopher be able to open up about his real identity to Hayden before it is too late?

I went in with high expectations for the last Miles Media brothers read having loved the others. The friends to lovers adventures were filled with banter and spark that allowed readers to see just how broken Christopher may seem behind closed doors. While Christopher has the charm and Hayden has the love, this couple’s steamy scenes seemed forced or thrown in because Swan is known best for her spice. I was hoping for an epilogue to wrap up the couple’s story and tie the whole series with a flourish. Thankfully, Swan will be back with an epilogue for all couples coming next year.

The Do-Over is the 4th book in the Miles High Club and it was probably my favorite book out of the series! This installment follows Christopher, the youngest Miles brother, in his quest to find himself. He decides in order to do that, he needs to backpack across Europe and live without all the luxuries that come along with being a Miles. Is he able to let loose and live like a normal person? Is he able to put his guard down and fall in love?

This book was absolutely HILARIOUS! Christopher's personality is like none I have read and he's one of my favorite fictional humans! His banter with everyone he encounters is top-notch. He works hard but loves hard. He is compassionate, kind, and has the biggest heart; however, at the same time, he is a playboy. Women just throw themselves at him and he knows being married and having kids is not in his future. Until he meets Hayden.

Hayden is a country girl. She is patient, kind, and knows what she is looking for for her future. She needs to go on a backpacking adventure to get out of her comfort zone and finally be able to move on from a broken heart. She knows Christopher's kind and is not interested. She is not interested and this is something Christopher has never experienced.

There were soo many scenes that I was LOL so loud. I could not get enough of this book. I am so sad this series is over, but this book was the way to end it.

If you love TL Swan and/or the Miles Brothers, you need to read this book!

💬 Thoughts:

This book has been one of my most anticipated of this year and oh my god did I love it!! I’ve missed these gorgeous brothers so much and I was living for every scene in this book with them all in it.

Christopher, the youngest of the brothers has never had a relationship. He is a playboy, who loves sex, usually with multiple women at a time and doesn’t think he could give that up for anyone.

He is feeling a little lost and like he doesn’t know who he is outside of work so he decides to set off backpacking for a year to find himself. This is where he meets Hayden. Although his attraction for Hayden was there from the start, he knew she wasn’t the type of girl who sleeps around so he tried to keep his distance, but they developed this amazing chemistry and friendship in the process. This book is definitely a slower burn than the others in the series, but their friendship was everything!

Christopher is hilarious and was such a sweetheart! He was always putting others before himself and I loved how much he adored Hayden. But what I loved even more than Christophers relationship with Hayden was his relationship with Eddie 😭. It made my heart so happy 😊.

Whilst I did love Christopher, Elliot still has my heart as the #1 Miles brother and I need the extended epilogue in my life NOW!

The Miles High Club series will always be an all-time favorite of mine but I don’t know that it ended as strongly as it could have.

Don’t get me wrong, there was a lot I enjoyed in The Do-Over. Christopher’s time backpacking was the greatest part of his story. I loved reading about all the adventures, his roommates, Eddie. He had so much growth during his trip, it was so nice to see his character development and I really appreciated his friendship with Hayden. I loved seeing his bond with Elliot come into play multiple times. As always, I’m a sucker for banter so I lived for those moments. I was also very happy with how Christopher and Hayden’s story played out.

With all that being said, there was still a bit that left me feeling kind of “meh”. A lot of moments felt very rushed, the build up for them was great but then they just ended and I felt like I didn’t get closure a few times. There was a few things that could have really added to the plot but since they were just kind of tossed in there they took away from what was ultimately rushed.

Thank you so much to NetGalley and Amazon for giving me the opportunity to read an ARC for The Do-Over!

Sadly, for me each book since The Stopover has been less and less entertaining. Christopher is spoiled and stays spoiled despite the purpose of the book. There's so much misogyny and women shaming in parts of this book. Hayden and Christopher are very bland, I didn't see the chemistry at all. I loved the Stopover, I am sorry to say that I didn't love this one as much.

Once again I have been swept up by the romance, Finally getting a chance to fall for Christopher was exactly what was needed, having devoured the previous books I was over the moon to get to read this beauty.

Headlines:

Chris, the male protagonist in this story was something of a tool but he knew it and set off on a year away from money and safety to try and change himself. Kudos to that but Chris wasn't always easy to like and that element wasn't resolved early on. I stuck with him and it was worth it.

Hayden was a country bumpkin, so the opposite to Chris in every way. What started as friendship, didn't stay that way. As is often the case with Swan's books, there was a special character that stole the show when he was on page...Eddie. Eddie had my eyes brimming and that last quarter of the book nearly wrecked me.

This book felt like the funniest of Swan's installments of these brothers and the laugh out loud-ness was real. So many monents, banter and ridiculous situations ruled the pages and I loved that. The chemistry was good and the connection felt real; time was taken and nothing was rushed.

I'm sad there were only four brothers, they've been a blast to read about but we have some epilogues coming in a book later down the line. Thank you to netgalley for the review copy.

🔥🔥🔥

So damn good. I’ve loved this series with all my heart. Tristan was my favorite until Christopher came along. But let’s be honest-I’d take any of the Miles brothers if given the chance. This book has it all. It made me laugh out loud on multiple occasions and it made me cry. And can’t forget the spice. (I’ll take 5% from Christopher any day).

When you realize you’re living a life without substance and decide to leave for a year to dig deep and find out who you truly are. It can’t all be about money and sex. Life is so much more. Christopher sets out to discover himself and finds things he never knew he wanted or needed. Hayden goes through a rough breakup and decides she needs to get away and do something for herself. Coming from two very different worlds, these two collide and find that maybe home is somewhere you never expected.

Super excited for what’s to come. #MEA.

Description:

I’m wealthy, powerful, and able to get any woman I want.
So why do I feel so empty inside?
In search of a deeper me, I take a sabbatical from my privileged life. One year of backpacking around Europe: a new identity, no contacts, and no money. Not a bad plan, I think.
Until I get there.
A crowded hostel room, body odor, and beer bongs—there are no words for the fresh hell I’ve landed in.
But amid the chaos, I meet my new roommate, Hayden Whitmore. She sleeps in the bed opposite me, and I openly admit to staring at her more than I sleep. Beautiful, innocent, and smart. Not my usual type but perhaps the perfect woman.
There’s just one small problem with the divine Miss Hayden. She’s totally unaffected by my charm. Nothing is working, and now, I’ve been friend zoned.
What?
But the good thing about me is that I’m an incredible problem solver, and I’ve come up with a diabolical plan. I’m going to slide right in under her friend zone. Be the best damn friend she ever had, hold her hand, make her laugh, and spoon with her in bed.
But now there’s another problem.
Hayden is the one who is sliding under my skin, and maybe friendship isn’t enough.

Christopher is the youngest Miles brother and has lived a care-free playboy lifestyle his entire adult life. Upon this realization and feeling unsatisfied, he makes a rash decision to take a year long sabbatical and travel around backpacking, starting in Spain. He lives in a hostel and meets Hayden, a farm girl who booked this trip to get over a heartbreak. The two meet and like each other, but struggle to reconcile their differences and form a meaningful relationship.

I really enjoyed this! This was definitely the most lighthearted and funny book in this series and I laughed out loud so many times, especially with all the "Ahh's". As always this was quite long, but I didn't mind. The story was interesting and I couldn't put it down. I liked Christopher and Hayden's journey and how they grew both together and a part. I also loved their relationship with Eddie and that whole aspect of the story. Christopher and Hayden were both solid, well written characters and as always I like how the female stands up for herself. Some of their fights and points of contention were interesting but made sense with the story. It was nice to catch up with the characters from the rest of the books as well (but why SO many children? I found that so weird). As always there were a couple of comments and word choices made by both characters that I didn't necessarily care for, so not a 5 star. But this was funny, entertaining and a good read. Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for the free preview in exchange for an honest review! I'm really happy I got to read and review this.

You know how you anticipate something and then its such a huge let down when you actually have it in your hands? Have you ever had that feeling? What about the feeling when you anticipate something soooo very much AND then it lives up to your expectations...nay precedes them and you just float on a cloud for several days after reading a great book? That's the feeling I had...and I'm still on my cloud.

Christopher. The final brother. The youngest. The most irresponsible. The one that seems to have just gotten by on the coattails of others. However, this perception is greatly exaggerated when he realizes he wants to make his own mark on the world. To accomplish finding out who he is as a person, he decides to leave his world of privilege and backpack around the world with just a few thousand dollars for the entire year.

This is where we meet our heroine, Hayden. Hayden is coming off of a major breakup and wanting to experience the world. While on her journey of self-discovery, she meets Christo (our hero in disguise!) who is also trying to find out about himself.

T.L. Swan is an amazing world builder. Her stories are long, have a bit of a slow delicious burn, but you know who you are reading. You know the characters, their motivations, their faults, and also their strengths. This is a beautiful conclusion (or is it??) to the four brothers series.

One thing to note - I think this book is better read with the series. However, it could be read as a standalone. But why would you want to?

I AM EMOTIONAL!!!!! I loved this book so much but I am so sad that this was the last main book in this series. I knew when I read The Casanova that I would be intrigued by Christopher's story and I am so glad that this book proved me right. As with all of the books in this series I laughed out loud so many times. TL Swan has a way of writing a spicy romance with the charm of a rom-com.

This book had some differences from the other three, primarily because of the location, but it was still everything I wanted. Christopher and Hayden had such a wholesome connection and I wanted to read about them for 500 more pages. The Do-Over had so many amazing tropes; friends to lovers, forced proximity. IT WAS ALSO SO SPICY! Their chemistry was outstanding.

By the end I was so emotional knowing that I was saying goodbye to my favorite brothers, but I also felt so happy after reading this amazing book.

I genuinely think T.L.Swan has four of the most hottest billionaire playboys known to man (and woman!)

Christopher is by far the worst of the bunch. His take what I want and non-committal attitude has him taking himself off to backpack for a year. And the results are hilarious. Chris is the kind of guy that gives no f**ks. He also doesn’t sleep with women one on one if you catch my drift …

Then there’s Hayden, she and Chris have that whole enemies to lovers vibe going for them until they don’t. And then they fall in love. Which is hot. Christopher is a hot lover. HOT.

What I didn’t like was the way Hayden started a little strong but then became weak when it came to giving in to Christopher. But plot twist, I also hated the way she didn’t try to embrace his life. I don’t know, she kinda bugged me.

This book is on par with the humour of The Takeover (which is my fave). The side characters Basil, Bernadette, Bodie all hilarious and lots of fun and let’s not forget Eddie!!! What a heartbreaker that story is!!

If you want laugh out loud moments and a hot alpha asshole. This is definitely the book for you!!

Rating this one was hard for me. I love the first 3 books in the series, with the first 2 being absolute knockouts. That said, this one felt like I was reading a different series. The only times that I felt like I was actually reading a Miles High book was in the scenes with the rest of the Miles' brothers. I think the problem for me is that this wasn't an office/workplace romance like the first 3 books are. While I enjoyed the backpacking experience through Christopher's POV (some scenes being incredibly funny), I just found myself missing the parts that made me enjoy the other novels in the series so much.

That being said, I did still really enjoy this book. It was a slow start. I really didn't start to find myself invested until about the 30% mark, but once I hit that point, I devoured the rest of the book in one sitting. Christopher was another spectacular Miles brother. I really enjoyed the fact that T L Swan wrote him to be afraid of imperfections and it made his chapters really enjoyable to read. He also had just that perfect amount of possessive and jealous levels that he shares with the rest of his brothers. Hayden was a bit of a bore for me and I didn't really find anything about her that stood out. I just felt like Emily, Claire, and Kate all had a bit more fiestyness to them. However, I did enjoy the romance and relationship between the 2. Their friendship was believable and the journey to lovers was even more believable.

3.75 stars

I love all the Miles brothers, but Christopher is without a doubt my favorite.

Christopher has grown up entitled and privileged. He’s never had to work for what he’s wanted, never been in a relationship, and lives the player lifestyle. He takes a year to find himself-and the Do Over follows him on his journey.

TL Swan always includes funny scenes in her Miles books, but I was ROLLING the entire book. Christopher is sarcastic and witty and there is so much comedy, as well as a lot of spice. A definite 5 star read and a great ending to the Miles brothers. I already can’t wait to do a reread when it comes out on audio.

DNF at 21%

What is this?? Seriously, since the very beginning everything is all over the place and the writing is so bad and cringey.

Seriously, Christopher is a 31-year old dude who acts like and entitled 15-year old and is cringey af.

Don’t get me started on Hayden, she tries to act like a saint but slut shames any women with confidence.

I was so excited to read this because the previous books were amazing but this feels like if a teenager is writing on their diary, everyone acts so dumb.

This is Christopher's story, who is the youngest brother. The characters are well-developed and likeable. I just think that the story dragged on at times, with the main characters coming together to then take backward steps. The ending came quickly and was predictable. Overall, though, this was a good story.

3.5 rounded down.
This is my least favorite book out of the series. The story writing wise seemed disjointed in areas. Some parts had me cracking up and then there were sweet and heartfelt moments as well, however, Christopher and Hayden's romance didn't make me feel much. I wasn't left swooning or cheering them on. Christopher failed to win me over as well..which every other brother did from the jump. Something was just a tad off with this story as a whole. I wish I felt differently, but. My favorite out of The Miles High Club will forever be Tristan's journey. A true gem!

Thank you Netgalley and Montlake for this early copy!

Be warned, “The Do Over” delivers a loaded punch of feel good vibes! T. L. Swan tells a story worth listening to, or reading again and again. Christopher Miles is out to change up his life, and he did not expect for such thing to happen until he finds himself in Spain, being won over by the authentic, bright-light that is Hayden Whitmore. This story unfolds in a raw, realistic digestion of a dream. Living vicariously through the characters is inevitable and a fantastically fun! Then ending is better than anyone could anticipate!

TL Swan can do no wrong.

I absolutely loved this book. Does it takes the top spot in this series? Idk. Tristian Miles is hard to top but the more you read this the more you realized Christopher is like Tristian and this book became everything I needed.

There was typical TL Swan/Miles brothers banter and ridiculousness, where my favorite rich dudes are assholes and look like dumbasses and the women thrive. I loved the grovel. I loved the little aspects of other series sprinkled in. And I loved the ending and side story that was so damn beautiful and very similar to why I loved Tristian.

I was on the edge of my seat for the final installment of the Miles High series. These books have been my comfort reads for some time. Christopher absolutely did NOT disappoint! I loved getting to see all four brothers interact, and I loved Christopher's character development and his relationship with Hayden. Overall I have nothing bad to say about this book other than I wish it was longer!

I am so grateful to Netgalley and Amazon Publishing for the ARC of the Do-Over, my new favorite in the series. Thank you!!

I feel something being wedged up my ass.
"Ahh." I turn around to see that same kid who was kicking me before. "Fuck off, kid," I yell. I push him hard, and he goes flying back.
He stands, infuriated. Then he charges me. I push him back. "Diego," I yell.



Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️.5/5


This is the 4th and last book in The Miles High Club series by TL Swan.
I’ve already read book 1 and 2 of this series and I loved the Takeover to a whole other level, since it is said that Tristan and Christopher i had quite high expectations. And although nothing will ever top The Takeover for me, this was a pretty good one!!
I must be honest, at the beginning I couldn’t stand Christopher: he was way too arrogant and basically a sex maniac lol.
However, going into the story and learning about his perfectionism made me actually relate to him a lot (who could have said that!?) and some scenes were funny as hell!😂
I loved Hayden’s character too, especially when she standed up to Chris’ slightly spoiled behaviour. 😅

I can’t say how much I appreciated the introduction of Eddie’s story, once again the streght on this book was the bond between kids and one of the Miles brothers.

There were a few fade to black scenes that felt weird considering it’s a TL swan book but I didn’t mind them since there were explicit ones as well.

Also it was so nice seeing the other members of the family gathered together!!


Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for an ARC in exchange for an honest review.

I totally enjoyed this and it was full of the usual sarcasm and banter that I would expect with a TL Swan book. Opposites attract of course and I liked the premise of getting away anonymously backpacking which was so outside Christopher's comfort zone. Also there was the sizzling sex that was hot hot hot. Hayden was also in a situation outside her comfort zone and I think she reacted reasonably when she was blindsided by the truth of who Chris was. Absolutely entertaining read.

The Do-Over had me laughing out loud from cover to cover!
(Well, minus the part where I was nearly in tears.)

Thank you to TL Swan, NetGalley, and Amazon Publishing UK for this ARC!

Before starting this one, I honestly couldn't remember much about Christopher from the rest of the series. But when I heard this book centered around backpacking through Europe? I knew it was going to be good! The Miles brothers had already proven they don't do well when things are below their standards & I knew it would make for a fun book!

I absolutely loved the found family that Christopher & Hayden developed with their hostel roommates! Especially after Christopher had such a rough start with them. Although the entire plot point with Eddie just felt *off* for me. Even once we learned why he had to be a big part of the plot, it still felt very forced.

Overall, I really loved this book & I'm so excited for the extended epilogue, Miles Ever After!

Christopher & Hayden

Dual POV throughout with one brief extra POV from a side character. Book 4 in The Miles High Club series. Slow burn, friends to lovers.

Christopher Miles (31) is the youngest of four boys, a billionaire playboy, and the head of marketing for his family's company, Miles Media. Christopher's life lacks depth and he has never been in a monogamous relationship. When his brothers harass him about his playboy ways Christopher decides to take a year away from the family business, his wealth and privilege, to backpack as far as he can on a limited budget, working where he can to support himself.

Hayden Whitmore (25) is the only child of third generation New York farmers. Hayden planned a trip to travel the world after the devastating break up from her childhood sweetheart two years ago. Hayden has her life seemingly mapped out and just needs a break before her next chapter begins. Her mom is convinced Hayden will find the one on her travels.

I like rant reviews because they make me get off my chest all the anger and frustration I have with the book but I can't do that here because I ADORED THIS BOOK!
The only bad things in this book were Tristan and Jameson; I detested them in their book and I detested them here. Aldo Mr. Masters... I hate you.
Now, Christopher was one of those characters that I was intrigued about in the previous books and because I didn't have much luck with them I was a bit wary on picking his book but I'm glad ibdid because he was everything I hope and more.
The way this man grew on me... when he first met him he's the epitome of a spoiled brat and to see how he grew up and became the most amazing guy?!?! Oh my God! He's one of my favorite heroes.
Hayden, it took a bit for me to fully like her because sometimes I wanted to smacked her in the head when she acted stupid but she was fantastic by the end too.
Together we see how they helped each other become a better person. Their friendship is amazing 👏 and also the bond they make with the rest of the "Fossils". The adventures they have are hilarious and so much fun to read.
And yes we have miscommunication but we all knew it was going to happen but the way it was handled and we didn't get stuck in it... amazing.
I honestly didn't expected to love this book as much as I did because again I didn't have the best experience reading this particular series but to be honest I think because of the so much fun story and the super sweer romance (it was so good!) and the steamy scenes (they were amazing!) and mostly because i adored Christopher, i think this is easily one of my favorite books this year.

Btw... that ending... I cry 🤧 absolutely beautiful.

Thank you to Netgalley and the publishers for the chance to read this book in exchange for an honest review.

What I liked: Out of the four brothers/books this was was my second favorite because of the memorable storyline. I loved Christopher and Hayden when they were backpacking and in the hostel. I thought their relationship from friends to lovers was very well developed. A great opposites attract with a city boy and a country girl. I enjoyed the change of scenery from the other books and that is what makes it more memorable. It was hilarious to see Christopher struggle and navigate a privileged- free lifestyle. I absolutely loved Eddie/Christopher/Haydens relationship.

What I disliked: Their relationship when they got back home was so messy. It's expected, but it's like their personalities changed along with their relationship. Especially Hayden. She became a doormat. Christopher's anger issues got 10x worse. He was in the wrong and messed up so many times and Hayden was the one groveling and asking for forgiveness?! Girl Stand Up!! It was very frustrating! By the end I really thought that Christopher made all those changes not because of Hayden but for Eddie. All that said, this was still better than the first and third book.

“We could win the war and blow up the world.”

I had been so looking forward to Christopher Miles book and The Do-Over did not disappoint. Christopher comes to the realization that he needs to grow as a person and embarks on a yearlong backpacking journey where he meets Hayden. These two are complete opposites but somehow their relationship works. Hayden and Christopher were fun, playful, steamy, angsty perfection.

“She has this calming effect on me. As soon as she’s in my arms, all is well in the world.”

Hayden is a sweetheart. She has been hurt badly by her ex and spent two years hiding from life. Now she’s trying to break out of her shell and learn about who she is as a person. She is trying to embrace new challenges and with Christopher’s encouragement, she pushes herself out of her comfort zone.

“Your life has been so perfect that you’ve never had to dig deep to find out who you really are.”

Christopher starts out as a shallow, selfish man who never thinks of others. When this is brought to his attention, he realizes that he needs to make a change in his life. When he meets Hayden, she shows him that his heart is what matters most and that he’s enough without all of the flashy material wealth. He made a lot of mistakes along the way, but in the end, he realized that in order to be truly happy, he needed to grow up and embrace love.

“Everything about our love is crystal clear and yet, in so many ways, messy and complicated.”

The banter between these two was so delightful. They truly developed a friendship before they embarked on a relationship. Their chemistry was electric and their spark jumped off the pages. They both had a lot of growing that they needed to do, but they were always supportive of one another through everything. All of the angst and heartbreak they encountered helped to strengthen their bond in the end.

“I thought to be happy that I needed to be a diamond, but you showed me that it’s okay to be coal, and you loved me just as I was. You didn’t need me to be anything else. I was enough.”

This was a lengthy book, but I absolutely devoured it. Full of sparkling banter and friendship, so much steam and a lot of heart, The Do-Over made my heart full and I couldn’t turn the pages fast enough. Now I can’t wait for the epilogue for all of the brothers. It can’t come soon enough.

Real rating: ♾

Oh my freaking god. I haven’t stayed up late reading a book in a HOT second. And I finished this bad boy in less than 24 hours.

This book was actually amazing. I thought I laughed a lot while reading “the takeover”, but I was actually CACKLING almost throughout the entirety of this book!!! I loved it.

I love Christopher. Like with a passion. Him and Hayden 🤌🏼🤌🏼🤌🏼🤌🏼are just something else, in the best way!!!

This entire story was just downright phenomenal. It felt different somehow, but it was the absolute perfect ending to the miles high club series. I am so sad that the series has come to an end. I’m not ready for it to be over!!!!!!!!! But y’all. I seriously loved it. I laughed, but I also cried. My emotions were all over the place. I was so in my feels and I can’t wait to talk to y’all about it.

Also I love EDDIE. Jesus. My heart.

Hayden is so awesome and she will not get walked on!!! We love a country girl with a good ole back bone! Christopher is a playboy but goddamn he has an amazing heart.

I will need 7-10 business days to recover from this.

Tropes:
Roommates
Friends to lovers
City boy/country girl

Spice: 🌶🌶🌶

Thank you to NetGalley for this arc.

I had such high hopes for this book and ultimately it just fell short.

I was invested in the story to see how things shook out but the plot felt slow at some points and then felt rushed at the end. The woman shaming is rampant and some of the language around that was off-putting to me. The main characters had a physical connection, that much is clear and constantly repeated throughout the novel, but I’m not sure they had much more than that. Christopher does change in some ways but doesn’t change in a lot of majorly important ways. I was shocked when Christopher reveals who he is, thinks he isn’t in the wrong for lying to her for a year, and Hayden just forgives him within a day. There were quite a few plot points that were just glossed over and never discussed again. I would have liked to see some explanation of how they were going to fit into each other worlds more than just the compromise at the end.

When Christopher Miles decides to go backpacking under a new identity of broke, teacher Christo, he wasn’t counting on farm girl Hayden being the woman of his dreams. Building a beautiful friendship can their year abroad turn into something more? Oh my god this was just perfect! Super funny, super hot and super romantic!
Thank you to netgalley and the publishers for this arc in exchange for my honest review.

I was so excited to grab this book because TL could do no wrong in my mind and I couldn’t wait to get back to the Miles brothers.

Christopher is the youngest Miles and seems pretty entitled. A few remarks and jabs from his older brothers sets him off and he decides to prove them wrong. And takes it to the extreme, backpacking across Europe. And on a budget.

Hayden is still getting over her past relationship and decides to take a break from her life, on the farm with her parents, and see the world.

Chris and Hayden cross paths at a hostel and quickly become part of a group traveling and working together. Chris’ charms don’t quite work on her and she assumes she’s nowhere near his type, so they settle on being friends.

I loved the dynamic between Christopher and Hayden while in Spain. The line between friends and lovers was pretty blurred as time went on. They seem to develop a strong connection with each other, but is blindsided when the trip ends.

I found the last part of this book to be a little predictable, but in all fairness I think that comes when opposites attract. There are going to be struggles. I was mad for Hayden on several accounts, the Christopher she had is Spain wasn’t with her when they got home. The vacation is over and reality sets in, but there is zero time for adjustment. After some soul searching and distance, they both realize that they just need each other, no matter where they end up.

Oof what a mess. The writing was subpar at best and I didn’t find any of the characters to be likable.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/5
🌶🌶🌶/5

Tropes: chance encounter, friends to lovers, second chance, opposites attract

Christopher Miles the baby of the Miles clan who needs a do over. He wakes up one day and realizes no one takes him seriously and his life doesn’t feel like it’s going anywhere. He decides to take a year off and backpack through Europe with a different name and no money. On his first day there (after a disastrous beginning) he meets Hayden (who also just arrived) and a little group that becomes their found family. Hayden is resistant to his charms because he is the opposite of what she thinks she wants. They quickly become best friends (hello cute cuddle scenes) as their group starts traveling together. Christopher doesn’t understand how she can resist their chemistry and she tries really hard to, until she can’t.

They all spend a year traveling without her knowing who he truly is (also insert some fun cameos here) until the last day when they fly home together and she learns just who she fell for. Once home they must learn to come together or fall apart.

This book had so much that I loved. The relationship was adorable. I loved the character growth. This book was also hilarious. Christopher was a little bit of a drama queen so watching him learn real life was the best. My only complaint was that the last quarter felt rushed to an abrupt ending. I wanted more! I wasn’t ready to say goodbye that fast. I’m SO grateful we’re getting an extended epilogue for all the brothers because I wasn’t ready to say goodbye!

thank you to NetGalley and Amazon Publishing for this ARC copy of The Do-Over!!

this book was a pretty okay read. it was quick and easy to read as it had shorter chapters and each chapter was broken up quite a bit which moved the story along a lot faster. for me, i didn’t love the start of this book. it felt quite rushed and like it was skimming over the start of their relationship and friendship. i felt there was no building towards their friendship it just sort of started and then the book would skip a few days or weeks and their friendship was in a different stage.
i did, however, like the development of christian though. he wasn’t my favourite character but he did go through quite a bit of self development. he spent time trying to figure himself out and sort through his struggles with forming relationships. i also really liked how he did this to try to be a better and more self aware person for hayden and their relationship.
there were quite a few parts of the book that i really enjoyed and found were really funny and entertaining throughout. such as the Mykonos scenes and the ending.
but overall the book was a pretty okay read. it wasn’t my favourite and wasn’t as great as i expected it to be.

A great finale the Miles High Club series. Although I didn't really care for Christopher at the beginning of the book, I loved him by the end. Hayden was an absolute angel. I loved getting to see glimpses of the other brothers throughout the book. The odd jobs made me laugh. Eddie's story was my absolute favorite. I will definitely be going back to reread this entire series.

I have been waiting for this book ever since I closed The Casanova and take a bow Tee because it was a perfect ending.

Christopher is the youngest of the Miles brothers and he definitely shows it, he looks up to his brothers and their relationship just makes me melt but also had me in stitches it felt so real. Christopher is the epitome of the youngest child always trying to compete with his brothers and prove that he is just as worthy as they are but there are parts of his personality which show that he just can’t fail and so he takes steps not too become a failure including not being I a relationship. After his brothers make fun of him during a board meeting he takes the drastic measures to disappear for 12 months and go back to basics.

Hayden is a simple farm girl who booked her trip to try and get over her ex and when she meets Christopher in a hostel in Spain they don’t exactly hit it off but quickly become friends and can’t bare to be apart. Their relationship was so beautiful and so organic, he was content to just cuddle her while she read - the dream!

Everything was going swimmingly for these 2 and I could just tell something was brewing and when it hits they needed their heads banging together, and Eddie that boy needs protecting at all costs he was a star in his own right and can we please have a book for him in the future please and thank you?

In true Tee fashion we get some proper laugh out loud moments ‘the yacht’ that’s all I’m saying. And I adored the little cameos from the boys from the misters series, I love them so much. Christopher has zero filter and basically says what he feels and doesn’t care about the consequences which had me howling at times. And from the first chapter Christopher’s personality shines through and let’s say Tee doesn’t guide us into it 😜

This book follows the youngest of the Miles brothers, Christopher, and Hayden who meet at the start of there year long backpacking adventure around Europe.

Despite the fact he's a billionaire Christopher decides to do backpacking the proper way (staying in hostels, working random jobs), which leads to some pretty funny scenes early on his adventures as he's way out of his depth

There were times I wanted to slap some sense into Christopher, and just get him to talk to Hayden, he (like the rest of his brothers) really is a sweetheart deep down, it may just takes the right people (and some time apart) to bring it out of him

Overall, I loved this book, the ending was super cute, the spice was spicy and the banter between the Miles brothers is top tier as always

Thanks you to NetGalley and Amazon Publishing UK for gifting me the eARC to read and review

The Do Over did not go as expected but was better, way better! Christopher and Hayden are opposites in every way! Christopher comes from money, he has the world at his finger tips and he knows he’s one of the most eligible bachelors. Hayden comes from small town USA. She’s a hard worker and doesn’t take anything for granted!

When Christopher decides to backpack for a year he meets Hayden and group of amazing friends that he decides to travel with! A friendship quickly blossoms which turns to more. The only problem, Christopher doesn’t want Hayden to know who he is!!

The first part of this book is spent on getting to know both Hayden and Christopher. You get to see their relationship blossom. Then we get some time jumps through their year abroad and then the good part, life back in reality!!

I loved seeing both Christopher and Hayden grow and find their way in the world! I loved the friends they made and also their hilarious families!

Thank you to Amazon Publishing UK for gifting me an advance copy of The Do-Over by T.L. Swan, through NetGalley – it comes out on August 30, 2022!

I have been waiting for Christopher’s book, it’s easily been my most anticipated romance book of 2022 – and it did not disappoint!

Hayden was a breath of fresh air, so witty and resilient and very much relatable. There were so many times I was pleasantly shocked at how logical she was being – which I find helps me connect with characters (especially female MCs, and even more so in romance novels).

Christopher…oh Christopher, you make me smile. I did not know if I had enough space in my heart for another Miles brother. I was wrong. Christopher was so charming and hilarious, even when he was being frustratingly ignorant and clueless – which he redeemed himself in every way!

T.L. Swan’s writing is fantastic as always – grabs the reader right from the first sentence. I loved all the traveling aspects of The Do-Over and the sweet connections with the side characters. As always, the banter was perfect, and the steam was bang-on. I am so very sad there are no more Miles brothers as I love being a part of their world.

The completion of the Miles High Club series is finally here. 🥹 This series is one of the first ones I read when I got back into reading, and watching it end is bittersweet [buuut we have the extended epilogue coming so that’s a plus!]. In true TL Swan fashion, she has given us two new characters to fall in love with. Hayden is from upstate New York and works on her family’s farm. Christopher is the youngest Miles brother and lives between New York and London. For different reasons they both decide to go on a backpacking trip and end up meeting at a hostel [a Miles brother in a hostel is almost as funny as Jameson Miles attempting to camp]. Christopher and Hayden hit things off from the start and become fast friends. At first, that’s all they are : best cuddly friends, but over time things get hotter and feelings get deeper. Throughout this backpacking trip, Christopher isn’t exactly honest about who he is, and when the trip comes to a close and it’s time to return to real life, their relationship is put to the test. Our small town girl, Hayden, isn’t built for the big city rich life and she struggles to acclimate. I’m leaving out some of the story because there are a few hidden nuggets in there [cute tidbits + cameos] that you’ll just have to find for yourself, but I promise you’ll love them. Overall, this story is so cute and so funny. I found myself smiling while reading it and laughing out loud many times. Admittedly, the spice was lacking for me. There were quite a few fade to black scenes and that was disappointing [hello ass play I really really wanted you]. Annnnd Christopher was a bit of a softy for me - I’m sorry - maybe I just prefer villains and anti-heroes at this point, but I just wanted a bit more edge to him. All in all, if you’re a fan of this series, you already know you’re reading this one, so enjoy!

4 Stars for this backpacking pair!

I just loved Hayden ... she's so sweet and sees the good in everyone and everything. Then there's Christopher ... his attitude was over the top and I really didn't like him at the beginning, but as the book went on, my opinion changed (slightly). I thought that in the first half of the book the characters were way too immature for their age, but they were redeemed in last half of the book. I did like that the other Miles brothers made appearances in this book and we found out a little more on their stories.

Christopher has a life crisis and decides to backpack across Europe for a year. Hayden broke up with her boyfriend two years ago and her life is at a standstill, so to shake it up she decides to go backpacking across Europe. Christopher and Hayden meet at the hostel and there is an instant connection, but Christopher is keeping a big secret that could end things before they even begin.

I received an early copy courtesy of Amazon Publishing UK through NetGalley in exchange for a honest review.

How is this the last book in the Miles brothers series?! The stopover was my first book by this author and lead me down the path of reading a handful of others by her. This series is by far my favorite. While Tristan is by far my favorite brother of them all. I think Christopher had the most growth. This book made me wish I had backpacked around Europe and took more chances it’s never to late to follow your heart.

This was the perfect book to say goodbye to these brothers!! Christopher was not how I imagined him to be but was soooooo much better!! He is easily my favorite brother & this book took so many turns but the ending was so fabulous!!

Ooh, it’s been a while since I’ve read such an egotistical, self centred character as Christopher Miles, and guess what? I loved him. The youngest of the Miles brothers, and quite possibly the most entitled (also could be my favourite), comes down to earth with a bang when he decides to up and leave his privileged life and go backpacking around Europe for a year, with limited funds I might add. His adventure begins when he gets scammed by a ‘lady’, wallet, cards and cash stolen. Lesson learned, but it doesn’t matter anyway, because once he meets sweet, caring, lovely Hayden Whitmore, he doesn’t desire any other woman, and that’s a new experience for him. She is everything Christopher isn’t. I just love it when a sexy billionaire is taken to his knees by the unexpected appearance of a woman who has no interest in his money or status. This book also has the added bonus that said woman doesn’t have any knowledge of said billionaire’s fortune. Lies and deceit (in his defence it’s unintentional deceit from our sexy billionaire). Christopher is so out of his depth when it comes to relationships, and Hayden is so patient and good with him. They make a wonderful couple, until reality sets in and Hayden finds out what she’s up against. Highly entertaining, with some truly endearing moments, Christopher was so over the top selfish it was funny, that said, he also had a very sensitive, kind side to him. Eddie I have to say was the real star of the show. I loved him. I’ve got to be honest and say I did shed a few tears. I was sad when the book ended. I received an advanced copy of this book from the publisher via NetGalley. This is my honest review.

This is the BEST book I’ve read all year, it was so worth the wait! If you liked Tristan’s story than you will Love Christopher’s, the banter in this book is laugh out loud funny. Christopher, the youngest Miles brother, decides he needs to make a change and prove to everyone around him he is capable of being on his own without money so he decides to go on a year long backpacking trip hiding his true identity, where he meets not only Hayden, a beautiful country girl, but also Eddie, a 14 year old who works in a bar and who Christopher is drawn to almost immediately. This book was a rollercoaster ride there for a minute and overall incredible. You do not have to read these books in order, nor do you have to read them all but once you meet one Miles brother, you’ll want to meet them all.

The Do-Over was the much anticipated book four of the Miles brothers series. I was so excited for Christopher’s story, but sadly it did not live up to the other brothers’ books.
Christopher wants a “do-over” on his job and decides to backpack for a year. There he meets Hayden, a country girl finally letting go of her first love.
The writing seemed rushed and juvenile. The booked spanned over a year and parts seemed to jump all over. The couple doesn’t seem to have a lot in common. Their chemistry is ehh, not like the other Miles’ brothers’ romances.
If you have read the other books, I would still read this one. There are parts that are funny and it ends in a HEA.

This one felt so disjointed and all over the place. I wanted to like Chris more but something didn’t click for me. Hayden was OK- I hated her in the beginning, I can’t stand when authors write “I’m not like other girls” kind of FMCs that put other women down as a way to show how “weird and quirky” they are. Like the use of the word hobag multiple times was unnecessary

TL never disappoints me! I inhaled this book and finished it way too fast 🥹 I loved The Do-Over so much.

Christopher was the most romantic sweetheart I knew he’d be, and I LOVED him and Hayden together. Their chemistry was amazing.
I’m so sad to be done with the Miles brothers. These brothers have brought the biggest smiles to my face!

5/5⭐️

“You’re the first girl I’ve ever wanted more with.”

Christopher is notoriously known as a playboy who is superficial. He decides to set out and backpack round trip to find himself. While trying to find himself, he meets Hayden, a country girl, that he connects with.

THIS IS MY FAVORITE OF THE SERIES.

I believe whole heartedly that traveling gives you a new outlook on the world & yourself… and for TL Swan to include this perspective in her book makes me so damn happy.

Christopher becomes a better person through travel and meeting new people. He learns how to love and that’s is the beauty of this book. Money can’t buy everything.

I laughed, I cried, I felt love through the pages…

Eddie has my entire heart. Omg I loved that kid so much.

5 ⭐️ 3🌶

I was one of the lucky ducks that managed to nab an ARC of this bad boy from NetGalley and I have never been more happy for myself, ever.

Well buddies it has finally happened, we have reached the final Miles brother adventure! Will Christopher beat out your current fave brother?
I myself am a TriStan but Christopher I think might just be cosying in on the 1st place platform with Tristan.

I loved Hayden and Christopher together and separately, the relationship they built as friends, for me, was the best possible foundation for their romantic relationship to blossom.
I didn't know I could be so content reading about a couple who were so stubbornly trying to keep themselves in the friend zone but they were so comfortable with each other it was quite frankly adorable.

I'm sure it'll come as a shock to no one that the banter is top tier and the will they/won't they tension is excellent. I couldn't think of a better end to what has been an incredible series!

Now I'm off to weep in a corner until Valentines Day. I'll have to stop the tears then so that Miles Ever After isn't all blurry when I read it.

Omg so so good. I thought the ending was too short. Honestly I wanted more. I love this series and I really wanted a little more of a wrap up or an epilogue for this one but otherwise this story is just perfect! I can’t get enough of the Miles brothers and Swans writing.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
-
Thank you to the author and NetGalley for the eARC of this book in exchange for my honest review!
-
After securing the ARC and before reading, I of course sprinted to Amazon to download the first three in this series and proceeded to read all of them over the span of 2 days. I don’t know what kind of fairy dust is in these books, but they are so fun and addicting! Billionaire boyfriend is one of my favorite tropes so I was really in for a treat here.
-
In The Do-Over, the fourth book in the Miles High Club series, we finally get the behind-the-scenes in Christopher’s beautiful head, where he decides to take his “leap year” and travel abroad for a year with a limited budget to discover who he truly is. This book made me want to travel SO BADLY! Chris meets Hayden, a sweet farm-girl recovering from a broken heart, and their friendship falls quickly, with the two becoming practically inseparable from day one.
-
Hayden lost me for a bit in the middle of the story - I thought she was a little too go-with-the-flow for me - but she quickly redeemed herself and I loved watching Chris and Hayden both grow into the people they always knew they could be with each other.
-
I giggled like a schoolgirl throughout all of their banter and fun and loved loved loved it - I will say the spice in this one wasn’t the spiciest… iykyk… but it’s definitely still there. The tension was just SO much hotter.

4 stars

What a surprise this book was!

I went into this thinking it would be your run of the mill steamy billionaires romance but I was oh so wrong. This was a very unique book and unlike other books I’ve read! I enjoyed the story and the characters and the relationship that grew between Christopher and Hayden!

This book made me laugh and cry and feel all the feels throughout while also being super fun and entertaining, it practically read itself!

This is only my second TL Swan book, the other one I read was the last Miles Brother book so I’m still not super familiar with the author, but I know that I really enjoy their writing!

Thank you to NetGalley and Montlake for the earc in return for an honest review

The Do-Over is the fourth installment in the Miles High series. Similar to the previous books, The Do-Over follows Christopher, a billionaire workaholic.

The premise of the book sounded interesting, and I admittedly went into this hoping for a different experience than what I had reading the first book in this series. Further, as a contemporary romance, I was looking forward to a bit of an escapism blended with realism.

Unfortunately I was rather let down while reading this book. Here are my three biggest issues with this book:

1. The relationship has a clear power imbalance that is never truly sorted out. In the beginning of the book, Hayden makes it clear that Christopher can use a phrase “I need a minute” to signal when he wants space to breathe and think. He never uses this phrase, and there were multiple instances where the two of them are fighting and this would have been the ideal time for Christopher to be mature and use this phrase. Instead, during many of these fights Christopher’s language is borderline abusive, if not extremely aggressive. In fact, the one time Hayden stood up for herself led to Christopher being the biggest man-child and causing the most unnecessary third act. Christopher is constantly forgiven and I question f this is because he’s the party with more power, or if Hayden simply had no spine.

2. The infantilization of the Spaniard Eddie was….gross. To set the scene, Eddie is a 14 year old bartender. Obviously, to be working at age 14 means that you’re likely in a position where you need to take care of someone. Per Eddie, this someone is his grandmother. Regardless of his financial status, Eddie is quite the character, speaking numerous languages and being very street smart. Like many people when they travel, Christopher and Hayden treated Eddie like he was a toddler, rather than an actual person (ie: a teenager). To put this even further into perspective, Eddie is only 3 years younger than Christopher’s nephew. Would they have spoken to Harry that way? Absolutely not, but because Eddie is young and speaks a different language suddenly they find it OK to treat him like a child. I found this entire plot line to be very unrealistic, which is ironic because I’m reading a billionaire romance.

3. Christopher is very selfish when it comes to Hayden. That’s it. In every sex scene it’s more heavily focused on Christopher’s pleasure. First time, make up, etc, there’s very little attention on pleasuring Hayden and much of the attention is put on making sure Christopher is satisfied. If I’m reading a smutty novel I’d at least like to read about the man putting in effort

All of that being said, I found the book to be a very quick read. While I won’t be reaching for another brothers story anytime soon, I found that when it was good, it was good. 3 stars.

🚨🚨🚨This review is filled with spoilers so please skip this if you don’t want to know anything.

Unfortunately this was my least favorite of the four Miles brothers books. My number one complaint is the plot line about Eddie. It felt very white savior to me.
I also didn’t care for how the perfectionist and therapy stuff was brought up about Christopher as a kid and then was just never brought up again for the rest of the book. Like it’s clearly still an issue. This could have been a great opportunity for mental health and therapy representation.
The trip part of the book of them backpacking was a good time, I flew through the book. Once the trip is over and they go back to real life, the relationship and the book just kind of goes downhill.
For a 560 page book, the conflict was resolved awfully fast as well. Like you couldn’t have taken more time to flesh that out a little?

There’s also a lot of derogatory talk about women from multiple characters in this. Even Hayden does it. I don’t remember that in any of the other books.

A millionaire who decides to go backpacking for a year? What could possibly go wrong?👀
I adored this book from start to finish. Such a fun read and hilarious.

Christopher Miles is one of the millionaire Miles brothers, charming, straightforward and the funniest character I have met and he’s the complete opposite of Hayden. Hayden is such a kind hearted and fun soul who lives on a farm with her family and decided to take this little adventure to move on from her ex. Put these two together and you have the perfect romance. People do say opposites attract.

This book was filled with humor, adventure, spice and everything you look for in a billionaire romance. Let’s just say Christopher does not disappoint in the bedroom but I’ll leave it up to you to decide😏. I cannot wait to read the other books on the series! Absolutely fantastic!

The Do-over featuring the fourth Miles brother Christopher was one of my most anticipated reads by this author for the year.
We see from the previous stories that Christopher is the light hearted, funny, easy going brother, but as we get to know more of him we see his lightheartedness is subjective.
As I kept reading this book and laughing all I could think about was when the angst bomb was going to be dropped. We all know this author loves to break us and finally, finally I got what the heart break. I sobbed durning this story, which doesn't happen often. Wiping the tears away all the while feeling my heart breaking for this couple.
I loved this story and so sad we came to the final brothers storyline.

The Do-Over is a friends to lovers story about two people who meet while staying in the same hostel while traveling through Europe. They are actually roommates and become good friends, working together and sightseeing before they ever take their relationship to a different level.

Hayden works on a farm but has always wanted to travel and see more. Christoper is actually from a wealthy media empire, but decides to abandon his riches and backpack his way through Europe as a different version of himself on a little bit of a journey to finding himself.

This story was a little bit of hit and miss for me. It took me quite a while to become invested in the story line and I felt like it kind of dragged on at times. Christopher wasn't very endearing for the beginning part of the story, but I did appreciate the growth of his character as the story developed and I adored his relationship with Eddie. I did like Hayden and Christopher together mostly, but didn't always buy them actually being together and that they would actually work out long-term even if I wanted them to. Overall, this was just an ok story for me and I am not sure if I would go back and read the others in the series or continue on any further.

Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for the opportunity to read an advanced copy of this book. All opinions expressed are my own.

Best book I’ve read this year! Deserving of ALL THE STARS!

Both my husband and my dad are named Christopher, so I already knew going in that Christopher’s are just the best. But my my my is Christopher Miles something special!

This book will had me laughing out loud one minute, tearing up the next, then back to absolutely swooning in no time. These Miles men and their irresistible swoonieness are so next level.

One of my most anticipated reads this year and it did not disappoint. Everything I wanted and more. TL Swan totally delivered. I could have easily read it in one setting, but made myself spread it out over a few days to really savor it.

The Do-Over is the fourth standalone in the Miles High Club series; however, I strongly recommend reading all four books in order!

All of the Miles High Club series books are in Kindle Unlimited and include narration if you’re an audiobook fan like me! I look forward to re-reading this one with the audiobook on release day!

Thank you to the author and publishing team for the opportunity to voluntarily review a copy of this book!

This series has been an emotional rollacoaster and I am thrilled it ended with Christopher's story. I loved the idea that Chris was to take a year off to find himself by taking a year off and "roughing it" in the real world while traveling. I think TL Swan did a great job of building Chris's character from the first night he was in Spain and we really got to see his personality in this book. The romance was great in this book but the found family aspect of this book is what really made this story. Between the backpackers becoming a small family and then events later in the story that I don't want to spoil. I cannot wait to see what is next for TL Swan.

eARC supplied by Netgalley.

The Do-Over follows arrogant playboy Christopher as he leaves the high-life to backpack around Europe for a year, where he meets small-town girl Hayden.

I'd seen T.L Swan recommended on my FYP on TikTok so was excited to pick up the Do-Over as an arc. It is the fourth in a series but can be read as a stand-alone.

I really enjoyed the story which, whilst being a standard romance plot of playboy and small town girl, was delivered with humour and fun. I will definitely be looking into more of Swan's back catalog.

The do over was so worth the wait for Christopher Miles and his grump Hayden. Christopher is shook to his core by his brother's assessment everything comes easy to him and he is entitled. To prove them wrong he sets off on a backpacking trip with little money. He meets fellow traveler Hayden at the hostel room they share. While he's handsome Hayden knows they want different things as she nurses her broken heart and they become friends. But Christopher can't help but be drawn to Hayden and wants more yet isn't sure he's capable of giving her what she needs. Christopher is endearing and charming while immature at times, but shows tremendous growth throughout the book. Hayden is faced with some difficult decisions on her own journey of self discovery. She has a big heart that enchants Christopher and others along with immense patience at times. I loved these two and the whole Miles family. I can't wait for the epilogue for all these men and their families. TL writes such wonderful characters and I'm going to miss them.

This is the first book I've read by this author.
The premise instantly caught my attention, I hadn't encountered the "billionaire-takes-backpacking-trip-to-find-himself" trope before. It had it's good and fun moments and I enjoyed some parts of the book.
It started so well, but I think it could have been shorter, some parts felt like it didn't add to the overall arc. There was something that didn't sit well with the way the MC and one of his brothers talked about women: "get her pregnant so she'll be entertained" something along those lines, maybe I'm missing some context since this is book 4 in the series and I haven't read the other brother's stories.
I had a hard time with the mc's personal growth and his tantrums, the end felt a bit rushed in terms of his character development, like I kept waiting for more.
I wanted to love this book so much, but all in all it was mostly fun and light summer read.
I'll still will give the others books a try to get a sense of the author's style.

I hate to leave a negative review for any book; I know how hard authors write to create these stories but honestly, this one was not for me.

I listened to the first three in this series and was excited for Christopher’s story! But to me, he was not a likeable MMC nor did he redeem himself or change. He expected Hayden to do whatever he wants just because he’s Christopher Miles, even after he spent a year away from his family/the business.

Hayden…I feel like she had so much promise but also fell flat for me. She blamed herself for not trying harder when clearly Christopher wasn’t trying.

I had high hopes for the premise of this book, but it wasn’t for me. As I always say for books that weren’t for me: give it a try, it might be for you!

I am torn with how I feel about this book. On one hand, as always, The writing is fantastic... on the other, I feel the flow, and at times pace, is inconsistent. Once we get to the end, certain aspects that were considered important are no longer involved. This makes the story feel forced rather than organic and true to the characters. I hate to say it, but this was my least favorite book in the series.

I fell in love with Ms. Swan’s Miles High Club from the moment I read The Stopover and I’ve anxiously waited for each book to be released in this series and now it’s finally Christopher’s turn! I couldn’t wait to dig into his story! Honestly, I think it would be a difficult challenge to write all 4 of these stories and have them all equally outstanding, but somehow she has done that. I love all the Miles men and I’ve always said that Tristan’s story was my favorite (and it still is–he is just simply hilarious with those kids), but I have to say that Christopher and Hayden’s love story was just that a heartwarming, real love story. There were so many touching moments, as well as moments filled with angst, but experiencing their journey together was quite enjoyable and fulfilling. I have thoroughly enjoyed reading this series and watching these men become better men because of the women in their lives. I’m very grateful to have been given the opportunity to read an early copy of this book for NetGalley for my honest opinion.

3.5/5 - Book #4 of the Miles High Series; eARC received

So sad the Miles brother series is over! I loved them all, and while Christopher wasn’t my favorite, I still really enjoyed this series! I love how T.L always includes characters from other series included (Julian Masters and Sebastian Garcia of the Mr. Series). This book, I loved Hayden’s incredible sweet character. The general friendship between her and Christo was a bit frustrating, and Christo was just too entitled, even at the end when he is ‘reformed’ and their third act break-up made me aggressively angry, but I loved the ending, including the incorporation of

Brief Plot: Christopher is a spoiler 30-something millionaire who decides to go off the grid for a year to backpack across Europe, where he shares a group room with other 20-30 year olds, to include Hayden, and girl from farm area in upstate New York. Ats the two get to know each other, Hayden friend zones Christian because he’s still too spoiled. Over the year, Christian is challenged to change his frame of mind, and then he and Hayden may stay a chance. OR are their lives too spereate to ever work together?

Thank you NetGalley and Amazon Publishing UK for an eARC coy of The Do-Over by T. L. Swan. This is my honest review!

4.5⭐️s! I absolutely loved this book!! I have missed reading about the Miles brothers. Christopher’s book was one of my most anticipated read this year and it did not disappoint.

The banter between the brothers had me actually laughing out loud. I love their relationships! 😂🥰

Christopher is definitely the most stubborn of the brothers, but I really enjoyed seeing him overcome his relationship hang ups throughout his book. Hayden really changed the game for him. I loved her as a character. They had great banter, soo much chemistry, and she was so patient with him. 🥺 Don’t even get me started on their relationships with Eddie!! The cutest EVER.

100% recommend this book.

Unfortunately, this was a very generous three star from me. The Takeover is one of my favorite books and that magic is hard to capture twice but I do not believe that Tristian Miles would ever have punched a door while screaming at his crying girlfriend to come out of the room she was hiding from him in. Christopher Miles though. What are you doing?

I liked that he took time to self reflect in his year abroad backpacking across countries but I don't feel like he was much different than when he started. His mother sat him down with his therapy notes from when he was 10 years old and said basically here are things to work on. Not once in the 21 years since then did anyone put him back into therapy or have a conversation with him about it? It just felt so odd. There were several time jumps that made transitions really choppy.

If this had been a standalone out of a different series (minus the scene mentioned above) I don't know that I would have judged it so harshly but I know what TL Swan is capable of and I'm afraid this wasn't it.

Thank you to Netgalley for a copy in exchange for an honest review. My opinions are my own.

3.75 round up to a 4

Thank you to Netgalley for the ARC.

This was like coming home, in the sense that you knew what you were getting.

This is the story of Christopher, the youngest Miles brother and Hayden, a sweet country girl.

I really enjoyed Christopher’s redemption ARC, from playboy to someone who is ready for a relationship.

It had that signature Swan humour too. I really loved seeing Christopher get ready for the trip.

I have missed the Miles brothers so much and it was good to see them again and catch up with what was
going on in their lives. I cannot wait to read the epilogue in February.

I have been waiting for Christopher’s story and this didn’t disappoint. He was bratty and spoiled which I wasn’t ready for but watching him throughout this story made my heart so full. TL Swan cannot do anything wrong. If you love TLs books and the Miles High club the. You need this book!

This book deserves all the stars in the world! I absolutely loved this book with my whole heart and will forever have Christopher as my favourite Miles brother!

I love that even though Christopher was basically told he has no substance that didn’t stop him from proving everyone wrong! He decided that he was going to do something even if it was a bit extreme and way out of his comfort zone!

I love how much he changed in regards to relationships and just being relaxed! The relationship he not only developed with Hayden but with Eddie as well made my heart skip a beat! Christopher doing his do over and backpacking for a year changed him for the better and it was honestly inspiring!

I loved the yacht scene - it literally had me in stitches!

He was fiercely loyal to his family and his job and even though he loved Hayden immensely there was that doubt in his head about them working but of course everything worked out in the end and they ended up at bumfuck nowhere!

Much like all of her books, this was incredible. It’s spicy but still has a great plot. Detailed, thought out storyline with believeable characters. I love the brothers but I think that he’s my new favorite!!

Of course she did nothing less than exceed every expectation I had of this book! Just like the others, I could not put this down! This song reminds me of Taylor Swifts Afterglow. Of course she perfectly ties in all the characters and their stories from the other books of the series. You fall in love with Christo, Grumps, and Eddie. I will absolutely re read this book. Well worth the read!

Christopher is spoiled. He decides to see what life is like without money and backpack around Europe.
Hayden is trying to get away from her heartbreak and open herself up to what else is out there, even if she is being pushed to.

Their relationship doesn’t start off with a bang but slowly it develops into more. But one of them is keeping a secret that may change everything.

I really enjoyed the banter between all the brothers, I lived for it!

No one will top Tristan for me, ever. The Do Over started to pick up around 50% and I found myself not wanting to put it down.

-Opposites Attract
-Friends to Lovers
-Secret Identity

Mission failed!

"The Do-Over" is the fourth and last book from the Miles-High series by T.L Swan. However, this book can be read as a standalone.

For me, there are only two extremes with the author's books - I either hate them or love them. Unfortunately, she could not inspire me with "The Do-Over".

Unfortunately, this was not only due to the unsuccessful realisation of the plot, but mainly due to the horrible and obnoxious protagonist Christopher.

Christopher is absolutely spoiled and whinythere is no character development at all. He is not a character I particularly like, because he is far too over the top and spoiled form e. Nevertheless, he has a good heart. That's why I find it a pity that there was no character development in him.

I actually liked Hayden at the beginning of the story. She made a down-to-earth and intelligent impression on me. In the course of the story, my sympathy for her diminished a bit, because I just found her naive.

Sadly, the backpacking theme was ticked off extremely quickly and uncharitably. Suddenly, the countries visited were only summarised on one page, which I found more than stupid and was not the aim of the story.

Unfortunately, I also didn't like the way the story progressed.

Unfortunately, "The Do-Over" only gets 1 out of 5 stars from me.

Thanks to NetGalley US and T.L Swan for the ARC in exchange for an honest review.

I am having such a book hangover, I thought Tristan was my favorite Miles brother, but Christoper may have just stolen the top spot.

Christopher was such a complex character, at first I didn’t think I was going to like him, he seemed to spoiled and snotty for my liking, but of course he proved me wrong. He comes to a crossroads in life after being teased he is spoiled and doesn’t know how to do thing by himself, so he sets off on a sabbatical for a year to find himself. I loved it when he first walked into the hostel, I laughed so hard, does he really know what he’s getting into?

I absolutely loved Hayden, she was so down to earth, I could see myself being friends with her. Setting off on a year to find herself, the last thing she expected was Christopher. She was able to strip him of his pretentiousness’ and had him exploring his life and it’s decisions.

As always I love catching up with all the Miles brothers and their families. Keep an eye out at the end for a special announcement!

4.5⭐️ 2.5🌶


TL Swan. The woman is a genius. This has been my most anticipated book of the year and it didn’t disappoint. I know not everyone gels with her writing style but I do. So yeah I can overlook imperfections in the plot lines. Her endings are epic. They never fail to tear me apart in just the right way, before getting to the HEA. Ok off my soapbox.

I love how this book starts out with Christopher and his brothers. Their banter and bond is something spectacular. A little cheesy and over the top but 🤩 nonetheless. Getting this glimpse of all of them makes me want to immediately go back and re-read the series.

As the book blurb indicates, Christopher, or Christo😉, is taking time to away to discover who he really is. His journey will give you all the feels. 🥰🥺🥵😂. I won’t say too much other than I dare you to come away and not fall in love with Eddie. 💕

We really didn’t get to know a lot about Christopher from the previous Miles brothers books other than he was the baby, playboy brother who had no intentions of settling down, especially with one woman 😏 But let’s talk about how wonderful he is. He has bits and pieces of his brothers in him but boy does he have the biggest heart. The way he’s a simp for Hayden is so endearing and this is coming from someone who LOVED The Stopover and Jameson’s alpha character.

Yes the spice is lacking in this book, but I didn’t mind because I really did enjoy the story that much.

I’ll just say the 3rd act break is so heartbreaking yet so authentic. 😭 There’s a lot of stubbornness but also maturity in what unfolded. But the ending couldn’t haven’t been more perfect.

I CANNOT wait for Valentine’s Day when we get to read the extended epilogues for all the brothers. I will never not think about this series. 💯

*Thank you to TL Swan, Amazon Publishing and NetGalley for an ARC in exchange for an honest review*

What can I say about this book? Brilliant. Hilarious. Swoony. Christopher Miles is the funniest, and most clueless of the Miles brothers. I simply loved Cosmo and Helga (or Grumps). TL Swan is amazing.

💥Heavy Profanity💥

🎒The last installment of the Miles High Club series has me completely bamboozled! Or in the words of Christopher Miles, “margarooted!” (More on this later. 😜)

Short Synopsis:

Christopher Miles, the youngest of the Miles billionaire brothers, is known for his carefree womanizing ways. Although he’s always relished in this lifestyle,it’s become apparent that he’s frustrated by accusations that he’s the spoiled little brother. In order to clear his name of this stereotype, he sets off to backpack through Europe with little money to his name and an alias.

Hayden has always lived the simple life. Craving adventure, she sets off to Spain in search of long nights in hostels and new friends from across the world.

Christopher and Hayden are complete opposites and constantly challenge one another. Developing a comfortable friendship, they begin to make memories together. Their chemistry becomes more undeniable each day that passes. Perhaps there’s a possibility that this friendship may have potential for something more.

🎒Ok…let me just get out of the way that the hostel life is something new to me. Lacking cleanliness and very little privacy does not sound appealing…BUT it makes for many laughs! Seriously, this book had me laughing out loud in public. (Random confused stares from people around me were common during this read.😅)

🎒Although Elliot still owns my heart, (sigh for grumpy secret romantic 😍) Christopher and Hayden’s story was a breath of fresh air from the previous series books’ office setting.

🎒Really and truly, if steamy, laugh out loud, romances are for you, pick up this series. You wont regret it!

*Side note: Margaritas was the beverage of choice throughout this book. (Hence the the margarooted statement above!)

𝔸ℝℂ ℝ𝔼𝕍𝕀𝔼𝕎 - The Do-Over by T L Swan

Feeling empty and searching for a deeper meaning in life, spoiled rich boy Christopher Miles decides to take a year away from his CEO lifestyle to travel around the world.
No money, No contacts, No plans. Not a bad idea according to Christopher - that is until he arrives and sees where he is staying. Surrounded by body odour and chaos, the youngest Miles brother heads out to conquer the local ladies… only to have his money stolen. He’s living in his version of Hell and in walks his new roommate… Hayden Whitmore.
Hayden is Christopher’s total opposite and completely unaffected by his charm, as roommates they slowly create a friendship that neither of them expected. The problem? Christopher doesn’t want a friendship anymore.

♥️ Opposites attract
♥️ Secret Identity
♥️ Friends to Lovers

This sexy finale of the Miles High Club did not disappoint. Christopher starts off immature, you can tell he’s the youngest brother. BUT he grew on me and ended up being funny and charismatic although he will forever be a bit of a prat. Hayden, however, was super likeable to me. Down to earth farm girl with a heart of gold, she definitely gave this big city CEO a run for his money. There were hilarious moments and parts that made me sob but it was a typical T L Swan book and I loved it. Bring on the extended epilogues 😍

⭐️ 4/5

You know how when you are getting to the end of a book and you don’t want it to end but then you want to know how it ends. This book had me stalling to finish it because I didn’t want it to be over.

I had this feeling Christopher’s story might break my heart but little did I know how well it would be put back together by Hayden. And there is this side character (this one’s human, unlike Elliotts’d ducks) that will also steal your heart.

This story though was the most epic way to end a series. I know we are getting bonus scenes in 2023 but Christopher and Hayden’s story was like saving the best for last. The author did that and anyone who says differently is lying…lol. This book was like the culmination of every brother and of course it happened to be the youngest one. And Hayden, I couldn’t love a heroine more then I love her and in a little way I see a little of myself in her (that’s probably why she burrowed into my heart).

This series will be one I always recommend. And yes I know they are considered standalone but you won’t get the full effect of the whole story, all 4 books if you don’t read them in order.

This book was just another reason why TL Swan will always be a one-click author for me.

I literally just read this entire series back to back in order to get to this one and simply, my life will never be the same. Holy 😮‍💨😮‍💨😮‍💨

I really, really loved this book! The chemistry was excellent and the pacing was perfect. Yet another slam dunk by TL Swan!

In this sexy installment of the Miles High Club series from bestselling author T L Swan, a billionaire playboy goes incognito on a backpacking trip in Europe. But how long can he hide from love?

I’m wealthy, powerful, and able to get any woman I want.

So why do I feel so empty inside?

In search of a deeper me, I take a sabbatical from my privileged life. One year of backpacking around Europe: a new identity, no contacts, and no money. Not a bad plan, I think.

Until I get there.

A crowded hostel room, body odor, and beer bongs—there are no words for the fresh hell I’ve landed in.

But amid the chaos, I meet my new roommate, Hayden Whitmore. She sleeps in the bed opposite me, and I openly admit to staring at her more than I sleep. Beautiful, innocent, and smart. Not my usual type but perhaps the perfect woman.

There’s just one small problem with the divine Miss Hayden. She’s totally unaffected by my charm. Nothing is working, and now, I’ve been friend zoned.

What?

But the good thing about me is that I’m an incredible problem solver, and I’ve come up with a diabolical plan. I’m going to slide right in under her friend zone. Be the best damn friend she ever had, hold her hand, make her laugh, and spoon with her in bed.

But now there’s another problem.

Hayden is the one who is sliding under my skin, and maybe friendship isn’t enough.

This is the fourth book in the Miles High Club series. I HATED Christopher at the start, but he really redeemed himself throughout this book. Well written with plenty of steam and chemistry.
Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for an ARC of this book in exchange for an honest review. All opinions expressed are my own.

I really enjoyed the last book in the Miles High Club series. I really enjoy TL Swan's writing and story telling. The characters she writes and the situations they are put in are so unique and entertaining. By doing this she enhances the romance in the story and makes the experience for the reader so much better than expected.

Christopher Miles is out with his brothers when they make a slight comment hinting that he is spoiled. This doesn't sit well with him and to prove them wrong he decides to backpack through Europe. He finds a hostel in Europe and travels there. We see him get ready for the trip and it's really funny. I didn't think he would stick through with his plan but he meets Hayden, a farmer girl from NY. Hayden is down to Earth and hasn't had the best track record with men because her ex was her HS sweetheart who cheated on her.

Christopher and Hayden don't start off on the right foot but their relationship slowly develops. For the first half of the book we watch as their friendship grows. They become each other's best friends and it's beautiful. We see how Hayden has to resist Christopher because she doesn't want to ruin their friendship by sleeping together but we also see how Christopher develops feelings for her. The entire time they are traveling together Christopher doesn't tell Hayden he is actually part of the Miles Media family and is actually rich.

Once she is told, she is too caught up in the news to say much. He convinces her to give him a chance and move to London. We watch as the two struggle to adapt to life outside of backpacking.

Overall, I loved how the relationship developed and the angst we felt for a large part of the book. I also loved Christopher's growth throughout the book and the way he had to work on not quitting on things just because he thought he'd fail. This was a steamy read and was the perfect end to the series.

The Do-Over is book 4 in The Miles High Club. Featuring the youngest Miles brother, Christopher.

Christopher is now second in line for the brothers for me. No one will top Tristan’s story, but Christopher’s is close. Tired of being the partying playboy, Christopher decides to take one year and travel Europe backpacking.

Hayden, still reeling from her first break-up, two!, years ago, decided to backpack through Europe for a year and come back refreshed and ready for her next steps. It’s going to be a big change from a farm in upstate NY.

The two meet in a hostel in Spain and are instantly smitten. Their journey has some ups and downs and the city boy and farm girl storyline is one we all know.

I figured the story and end would be similar to Elliott’s book, but this one felt more raw and real. You could feel the love in the page, but also the heartache of is love enough?

My *only* wish would be for Eddie to get a POV in the epilogue. He had a short 1 page in the book, but I knew there was more to his story in this book. I think a couple pages in the epilogue would be perfect.

Sometimes, if you're not careful friendship can blind you to what is staring you right in the face...

Once again T.L. Swan has outdone herself. Wow!! she really did it this time. Christopher Miles is entitled, full of himself. He can have anything or anyone he wants. Christopher also realizes that his life seems meaningless, empty and lonely. He has an epiphany of sorts and decides he needs a reboot. He makes a decision to take a year off and trek around the world through new eyes. He discards his old self and hopes to discover a better person within himself.

He meets Hayden on his journey and is immediately drawn to her. He usually has no problem winning over a woman with just a sexy smile, but Hayden does not go for the bait. They become close friends, but Hayden wants more. Seeing Christopher's transformation made my heart go pitter-patter. Their story had me laughing, doing a massive amount of crying, but also filling me with hope for the two of them to get their acts together and see what was staring them in the face.

The cherry on the sundae was seeing all the brothers together again. I loved this story hard.

The way this blends perfectly with the first three books. I can’t believe this is the end of the Miles brothers. I adored all of their stories and will revisit them often. This one felt different then the other books, but it was still so enjoyable. I was a little thrown off by Christopher’s journey, but I understand why he’s doing what he’s doing. Overall, expect the same humor and steam that’s expected from TL and those flirty little Miles boys.

Christopher, is 31 and the youngest Miles brother. He works in their London media offices and at the beginning of the story his brothers give him grief over his lack of a real relationship, being spoiled and entitled…he of course disagrees, but then while on a date later than night the woman he’s with says something similar to him. It gets Christopher thinking and he decides to take a year sabbatical from Miles Media and go backpacking, living in hostels, and finding jobs along the way for money. His brothers laugh it off thinking he’s joking, which just pushes Christopher even more into going. So he sets out to leave behind his penthouse, fancy limo drivers, extravagant lifestyle, his “regulars” and random hookups, and heads to Spain!

Across the ocean, Hayden is leaving behind the farm life where she works in animal husbandry, and heads to Spain. Christopher and Hayden become roommates, with multiple other people, in a hostel in Spain. They quickly hit it off and along with their hodge-podge group of new traveling friends decide they’ll do 12 countries in 12 months all together. New jobs, new friends, new adventures, and friendship boundaries are crossed along the way!

The Miles series has been kind of all over the place for me: I did like book 1, I really loved book 2, and then really disliked book 3. And while I’d hoped to love this one, I sadly didn’t. Things I didn’t like: so many cringe moments, the way Christopher talks/thinks about others is just icky the first half, the book/story felt all over the place, all the women hitting on Christopher all the time, the humor…it just came off cringe, crass, and juvenile to me. Seeing this billionaire kind of have to “rough it” and deal with daily chores/life was probably supposed to be comical but just made me eye-roll at his obliviousness to money and “normal” things. I do think the story dragged on for too long and I wish he would have told her sooner who he really was, instead of lying about his job for so long.

I did like that the romance is slow burn and they become friends first. I do think Christopher’s character became better over time, because of his journey and time with Hayden. I did enjoy his relationship with Eduardo, a boy he meets along the way who was honestly a highlight of the book.

Thank you to the publisher (Montlake) for an e-ARC via NetGalley. All thoughts in this review are my own. The Do-Over has a publish date of August 30, 2022.

I was so excited to get my hands on a copy of this early from Netgalley! I just love the Miles brothers, and Christopher was no exception.

That being said, he definitely needed to learn some things about life and had some growing up to do. And like his brothers he had his flaws, made mistakes— some that had me shaking my head and yelling at my Kindle— but he had a lot of growth and I loved to see it.

I also absolutely loved the moments with Christopher's brothers and family. It was nice to catch up with little glimpses into their lives now. And I just CANNOT WAIT until February for all their extended epilogues, in Miles Ever After ❤️

Hayden was so likable and very easy to relate to. I loved how she stayed true to herself no matter how hard it was.

This is a 4.5 stars

Christopher is London and New York's It bachelor. He likes his life fast and full of women. When he gets off of a date that didn't go well and she tells him that no one will ever love him if he keeps going at the rate he is. He needs to just find who he is and get grounded. So he tells his brothers he is going on a year long backpacking trip. He gets everything he needs and heads to Barcelona, stays in a hostel and everyone knows him as Christo and he is a teacher. He meets beautiful blonde named Hayden and they become the best of friends. What happens when feelings come in to play with the friendship? What happens when the world you though isn't what it is? What happens when vacation is over?

This is a very different kind of TL Swan book. I really was shock of how long it takes to get spice in this book compared to a normal TL Swan book but it fits with the story really well. The last half of this book was incredible! I also fell super hard for Christopher for what kind of person he became! I can't wait for the novella!

Review: The Do-Over • TL Swan🧳

Rating: 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

💓Release Day • August 30th

•So much wow and so many thoughts! First and foremost, I was so excited for the story of our youngest Miles brother and Christopher did not disappoint, y’all. His character growth blew me away and having a front-row seat to his journey was incredible! And I loved his dynamic with Hayden! Christopher very much needed someone who could plant his feet firmly on the ground, and I thought Hayden humbled him beautifully. ♥️♥️

•Christopher Miles has the perfect life: more money than he could imagine, his pick of the most beautiful women in the world, and his dream job. But just when he thinks he truly has it all, he gets the reality check of a lifetime in the form of a verbal slap in the face from his closest confidantes—his brothers. 🤯

•Suddenly, Christopher finds himself on his most spontaneous adventure yet: one year of backpacking through Europe with limited funds and the possessions he can carry on his back.

•And even though Christopher is cultured and well-traveled, no one could prepare him for his most recent destination: the friend zone.

•Hayden Whitmore, our small town, minimalist FMC has met her fair share of privileged, playboy assholes and she has zero time for more bullshit in her life. Her new plan? A backpacking trip across Europe. What she doesn’t expect is to meet her best friend & soul mate: a teacher named Christo. Or is he a custodian?🤔

•You guys, I’m in love with this book. It was the perfect conclusion to the Miles High Series! TL Swan’s writing is unmatched and the tension & banter in this story were top notch! I’ll be on the edge of my seat anxiously awaiting each couple’s extended novella!🤩

•Read. This. Book. You won’t be disappointed!🤍

I mean who doesn’t love billionaire romances?
4.5 stars ⭐️
it’s funny, it’s cute, there’s spice, what’s not to love? I really enjoyed this book and sped right through it. Now I have to go back and read the first three in the miles high club.

I’m incredibly sad. I wanted to love this book but there was just something missing.

The writing felt a bit all over the place and jumpy. Some scenes didn’t flow as well as others. The pacing was off too.

I really liked the characters and their story. I liked the ending a lot.

Unfortunately this was my least favorite of the Miles brothers books. Looking forward to the epilogue novel though.

Thanks for the review copy!

The Do-Over is the fourth book in the Miles High series and one of my favorites! I loved the change in Christopher's character over the course of the book. He went from someone who never wanted to settle down, to having the best relationship with Hayden and Eddie. The banter between Christopher and Hayden and their love for Eddie just made my heart melt.
