Cal has the life that many people dream of. He has more money than he could spend, looks that bring on sighs from all the women he meets, is the life of the party, and is part of the Kane family (which in itself draws attention). But there is also a darker side to Cal. One that he hides yet relies on to keep up with his persona. With the exception of his brothers & best friend (Book 2 Declan’s wife) Iris, there is only one person who has ever loved him and made him WANT to be better, Lana. Unfortunately, that ship has sailed. Six years ago he broke her heart and made sure she would never look at him the same way. Since then he has let his addiction fester and grow to the point that the only way to get through his day/anxiety is with alcohol. His grandfather, however, is holding all of the Kane brother’s inheritance (and it’s a HEFTY one) hostage until the three brothers complete tasks dictated by his will. Cal’s SHOULD be the easiest one. Simply live at the Lake House where he fell in love with Lana for a summer and then sell it. But of course there is a hiccup! Lana was informed that SHE owns the house and lives there with her daughter with absolutely NO intention to sell, much less give Cal another chance. Let’s be honest, between a feisty 5/6 year old, a small town willing to do ANYTHING to ensure Lana’s heart is safe, and a house crumbling around them, Cal will have to work overtime to prove he is in this for the right reasons.Overall this was a good book. I was really impressed with how well Ms. Asher humanized addiction in her writing. She truly does hit it spot on but allows the reader to fall for Cal and root for him (and want to smack him upside the head a few times tbh). I adored all of the scenes with Cami, Lana’s daughter. I thought she was hysterical and added a whole extra piece I didn’t know I even needed! The growth of both Cal and Lana is clear and easy to see. I will say, however, I did find myself become frustrated in parts because it felt like it was the same problem (addiction) that would pop up every 5 minutes. I fully understand the significance of it, I do just wish a different problem had been presented to spice it up and give us something else to focus on rather than Cal’s addiction. But if that was the ONLY negative, I think we’re doing ok!!!

Esse foi de longe o lançamento mais esperado do ano e ainda estamos em fevereiro. E cumpriu com as expectativas, eu li sem querer acabar, pois sabia que seria o último livro da série. Mas tudo que é bom chega a um fim, né?Final Offer nos conta sobre o amor de Lana e Cal. Ou Alana Castillo e Callahan P. Kane (o segundo nome do Cal é uma piada à parte, não vou dar spoiler). Como eu já sabia, esse livro ia ser perfeito, visto que é um second chance e de grandes amigos e amor de infância, que passam 6 anos separados mas ainda continuam se amando. Um amor tão grande que nem sabia a força que tinha.É linda a forma que Cal se mostra atento e em busca de ser melhor, seja para ele mesmo, para Lana, para Cami e sua futura família. Como ele luta com seu vício, com sua ansiedade e com o TDAH. A parte golden e comediante do Cal era sua parte que já conhecíamos, então eu não esperava menos da Lauren nesse livro, eu ri várias vezes e a interação dele com a Cami (extorquindo um bilionário para o fundo da faculdade) foi uma adição perfeita e deu leveza pro drama do livro.A participação especial dos outros irmãos, das suas parcerias e da viagem para Dreamland foi meu momento preferido de todos. Claro que a proximidade forçada e eles vivendo sob o mesmo teto em Lake Wisteria também tem seu apelo, toda a tensão sexual dentro da mesma casa, os beijos melados de cupcake, o Cal se arrastando (LITERALMENTE) pela Lana e a forma que eles pirraçavam um ao outro, naquela birra boa que só um casal com muita bagagem e amor nos entregaria.Esse livro foi lindo, agridoce por ser o fim, mas fiquei feliz de conhecer a história de nosso Cal, do cara que ele escondia atrás das máscaras de felicidade e humor. Já sinto saudade de minha família Kane.

From Lala’s Book ReviewsAll I can say is CALLAHAN PERCIVAL KANE. Like don’t get me wrong, I love Declan and Rowan, but I knew that Cal would be my favorite Kane brother since we saw so much of him in Terms and Conditions.Cal is the middle Kane brother who is more of the family man compared to his workaholic brothers. He was the one who dreamed about settling down with the his childhood love until his career in the NHL ended after a couple of years leading to depression and dependency on pain killers and alcohol to make it through the day. Cal was able to kick the pain killers but was never able to give up the alcohol despite rehab and AA meetings. He knew that this version of himself was not the man that Lana deserved and used her fear of abandonment and rejection to breakup with her.Six years pass and Cal has never returned to Lake Wisteria (except for one time) where Lana lives and he used to visit his grandfather Brady Kane during the summer. As good old Brady would have it, Cal needs to sell the house that Brady left for him to be able to get his inheritance and help his brothers secure their portion of the Dreamland franchise that Brady created. Little dose Cal know that Brady was a sneaky man who had more puzzle pieces than Cal expects, and when he shows up to the lake house for the first time in years, he finds out that none other than Lana had actually inherited half of the lake house. Causing Cal how to find a way to convince Lana to sell the house.The most surprising and shocking thing that Cal finds out is that Lana has a daughter with features that are very similar to his own would be around the age of when he had left Lana.Let me tell you, Cami (Lana’s daughter) is a little spitfire and had an adorable way of stealing the show from either Lana or Cal. Kami is probably the biggest reason that Lana made it through those six years after having her heart broken by Cal. Cami gave Lana a reason to make it through each day, and you it’s clear that Kami and Lana have an unbreakable relationship with love and trust. With Cami only being old enough to be in elementary school she is smart and observant with that childish charm that lowkey freaks Cal out at first but also steals his heart like Lana did.Lana is more guarded as time has moved on as she now has to think about her daughter. She has a good life in Lake Wisteria where she knows that the small town of people love them and would protect them like a family. After being shocked into a momentary stupor of seeing her teenage crush after six years of loneliness. She’s afraid of the worse that he will somehow make his way back into her heart and is unwilling to let go of her part of the house. Lana decides that if Cal is so persistent on selling the property, she would make it near impossible by suggesting that the old house needs to be renovated to increase listing price. Cal would rather sell it sooner rather than later, but relents knowing that this would be the only way.Cal wants to be out of the town where he could have had the love of his life and being so close to Lana and Cami in the guess house is his own personal form of torture of having what could have been so close but out of reach. And, as Brady Kane would have had it, the house is filled with asbestos causing Lana and Kami to have to live in the guess house with Cal. Cami is beyond thrilled as she and Cal have become best friends over the weeks while Lana is hesitant to be so close to Cal as he is already starting to wear down the walls around her heart.As the three of them are forced to play house, they fall into a routine and it would be easy for Lana and Cal to imagine a life together but the looming end of the summer and Cal leaving is one of the things that has Lana holding onto any sense of letting herself fall again for the man who so obviously wants to become someone who is worthy of her time.Cal decides that it is finally time to get sober for himself and that he owes himself the changes that could come along with it. And, he decides that he would spend every last second of a sober life proving to Lana that he is the man that could give her and Cami a life filled with love.The Final Offer is in my opinion the best book in the series. With Cal’s book being the largest in the series, it sadly went by way to quickly as Cal and Lana have to overcome the trust issues that they have with themselves and each other and find their way back to each other after six years of separation.As much as I love the grumpy sunshine trope going on with the first two books, I love the golden retriever energy that Cal has and his undying loyalty that he has. I love his determination to change for himself and becoming a person who would be deserving of a better life.This book is filled with first love, heartache, and finding your way back to the person you were meant to be with.

This book, ahhhh!!!! I TRULY DON'T KNOW WHERE TO BEGIN FROM. 🥺😍It's just so special, so heart touching, so so so beautiful and endlessly precious that I'm in awe of it. I cried, smiled, melted, swooned and felt my heart absolutely burst and glow with love endlessly! Lana, Cal and their angels (I really don't want to ruin the surprise for anyone) have absolutely stolen my heart. I don't think I'll ever be able to express just how I LOVE them! Their story healed my heart, hugged it close and wrapped it in a fuzzy blanket of tenderness and love. I genuinely never wanted it to end! I just wanted to live more with Cal and Lana in their safe haven. Their love, care, commitment and devotion towards each other... ahhh, it makes me cry to even talk about it! It's just too soul stirring for words. It's *EVERYTHING* Please do give their story a chance, I promise - you'll fall truly, madly and deeply in love with them in absolutely no time! From the first page itself. They're all magical. 😭😭❤️❤️Lauren Asher is a wizard!!! She has truly created pure magic with her words and heart. There is SO much thought, care, sensitivity, meaningfulness and love that has been put into their story and it shines vividly through every small, little detail of Cal and Lana's story as well Declan and Iris's and Zahra and Rowan's stories. She's such a beautiful and precious writer! It's an absolute joy to read everything that she writes. 😭😭😭😭❤️❤️❤️❤️
