BOOKWORM REVIEW: Claimed by Laura Pavlov


RATING: ⭐⭐⭐⭐.5
STEAM: πŸ”₯πŸ”₯

This was a bittersweet read for me, because I have loved all of the Magic Willows books and I will miss them now that this series is complete.

Ivy Baron, the only single Willow left, has been navigating life quite fine until she agreed to plan Talia Greene's wedding. And with Talia comes her brother Ty.

Ty Greene was once the love of Ivy's life until he left without a goodbye a few years ago to pursue a music career in Nashville. Now a country music superstar, he is coming back to Willow Springs and hopes to talk with Ivy. But with Ivy still nursing a broken heart, she wants nothing to do with him.

Would they be able to act civilized as they work together on Talia's wedding?

What I have always adored about Laura Pavlov's books is that they make you fall in love with her characters and go on a crazy roller coaster with them. This book was no exception. 

Ty and Ivy are so sweet and adorable. Ty is a complete alpha-roll whose love for Ivy has clearly not waned in the time they were apart. He is determined and sometimes smug, but he is also kind and sensitive. His immediate connection with his younger half-brother Sebastian is so cute.

Ivy is every bit his equal and perfect match. She is sassy but has a kind heart. She endears everyone, stranger or not, to herself without motive. I also love that we get to see all of the Magic Willows in action in this book; their ride-or-die connection is just #friendgoals.

This can be read as a standalone, but I highly recommend going back to the beginning and enjoying the series. It is incredibly sad for me to say goodbye to Willow Springs, but I know that there will be more Laura Pavlov books that I will fall in love with.

Ty Greene promised me forever and like a fool—I believed him.
But he skipped town with a bag of broken promises and a piece of my heart.
It’s taken time, but I've put myself back together and moved on.

Now Ty’s a big country music star in Nashville and I curse his name every time his song plays on the radio.
I don’t have time to dwell on the past.
I’m too busy living my best life.
I have the job of my dreams, a dating app that never disappoints, and the best friends in the world.

Hashtag thriving.
Life is good.
But now Ty is back in Willow Springs after all these years...
Acting as if nothing has changed.
His superstar status might impress everyone in town, but I’ve put him in my rearview.
And that’s exactly where I intend to keep him.
