Everything happens for a reason. So they say, anyway. But, after ruining the best relationship I ever had, I’m struggling to see a reason behind it. Instead, I loathe the man I’ve become. I’m a coward. Somewhere along the way, I stopped living my own life in favour of living for my father instead. What he wants for me, and what I want for myself are two different things. And if I don’t do … things. And if I don’t do something drastic, I’ll lose my balls forever.
I need a new direction.
Boarding a plane to London, I have only one thing on my mind: change. I need to get away from my life, my family and my past to figure out what kind of man I want to be. I’m not looking for a relationship, but when I meet fellow Aussie, Paige, something inside tells me to grab on with both hands.
Paige doesn’t make things easy with her high walls and closed off heart. I find that the closer I get, the more she pushes back and clams up. But it see the struggle there too, she wants me just as much as I want her. I’m f only she’d let me in…
The last time I fell for a girl, I made a terrible decision and ruined it. This time, I’m my own man. I won’t be walking away.
He’ll need to fight harder than ever to win Paige’s heart in this gripping romantic drama featuring new and extended scenes from books A Beautiful Forever and Phoenix, republished as Forever: Beautiful Series, Two.more
ARC received from author for an honest review
I read this book back in the days when it was titled A Beautiful Forever, and it was great to get back to to Paige and Elliot’s story.
If you have read Struggle, you will remember our leading man Elliot. Well, now it is time for him to get his HEA.
I won’t lie, our leading lady Paige did frustrate the heck out of me, even though I could understand some of the reasons why she did the things she did, I still wanted to yell at her through my Kindle.
Now, I had my issues with Elliot in Struggle – I know a lot of others didn’t have a problem with him, so this is just my thing – however in this book things are all good!
It did drag a little at the beginning, and did nothing to kill the view that all Australians do is drink and get drunk (again this is probably just my issue) but it got better and Elliot and Paige moved along with their relationship.
I wanted them both to find their way to their happy ever after.
Keep reading at the end for the backstory of Paige – you won’t be disappointed.
I am looking forward to the rerelease of the next book in the Beautiful series.
Lilliana Anderson is on a roll!

Elliotts turn at fighting for love. He messed up last time has he learned his lesson or will Paige be more than he bargained for.
Read how we traverse the Lindon scene and the people. How Elliott follows his own path to make himself. And what does Paige have to do with it.

This is the 1st book I’ve read written by Lilliana Anderson; she has done a great job at writing a good book; I can’t wait to read more of her books.
The story line caught my attention at the very beginning and kept me interested throughout the entire book.
I loved the chemistry between the characters.

This book has a captivating storyline that grabs you right from the start keeping you engrossed and on edge throughout the whole book!
It is wrought with emotion, and so well written that I absolutely could not put it down!

When you least expect it sometimes you meet the one…………you just have to recognize it eventually
Forever by Lilliana Anderson is the second book in the Beautiful series. Lilliana has done it a second time as this story is mesmerizing from cover to cover.
The story is about Paige and Elliot, who we were introduced to in the first book of this series, Struggle. This is an interesting telling of two people who are right for each other but need to overcome things from their past, especially Paige. But Elliot perseveres and continues to slowly pursue Paige.
It is a nice to read that Elliot finds the love of his life after losing who he thought it was, Katrina. This story proves that you never know where you will meet “the one” that is right for you but it usually happens when you least expect it and in an unexpected way, which is what happens with Elliot and Paige.
I received a free ARC of this book in exchange for my honest review. My opinions are all my own.
I don’t believe I’ve heard of this series but I’m glad I got to read this. It was a gut wrenching and emotional book. Amazing and beautifully written. I’m pretty sure I cried a little reading this. It’s a great story that you will love.

This is book two in the Beautiful series ,yes could be read as standalone but I wish I read first one two. In the first we met Elliot.
This book is Elliot and Paige journey to happiness, about everything they go through to got their happy forever.
Their past is definitely damaging to the souls,getting over could be difficult but if you have person that stand by and hold your hand is easier. This is what Elliot did ,he hold her tight
This was quite emotional reading and use box of Kleenex .
I enjoyed reading.

Elliot and Paige story has the perfect triangle. It’s got humor, heart and will emotionally shatter you.
An incredibly well written, descriptive and one where these characters will stay with you long after you put the book away. I received an ARC for an honest and voluntarily review.
This was a redemption story. Both Elliot and Paige were struggling with their pasts and needed a new start. When you really love someone, you’re willing to take them on completely, warts and all. Paige needed someone to love her and she needed to forgive herself. Elliot needed to just be himself and to let go of his guilt. The path they traveled was tough, but worth it.
This is book two in the Beautiful series. This is could be a standalone read from book one but I would recommend going back. This is Paige and Elliot’s story. Elliot has moved to London to find himself and a direction to take him in. He didn’t want any distractions or influences in his decisions. Elliot meets Paige on the flight to London and it turns out they will be roommates along with a couple others. Paige is a girl with a past that will break your heart. She is a tough nut to crack but you know the toughest shells contain the best middles. This is Elliot and Paige’s story of how or if a HEA can be reached. It is another emotional roller coaster but worth each high and low!

What an amazing story. Forever is a novel by Lilliana Anderson. This book was a great story. I enjoyed the romance and humor in it.
The characters in this story were good. I liked Paige. I feel like I once was where Paige was at. Not to the same extent, but I remember feeling similar and avoiding connections. Elliot is great. I liked his personality and his journey.
The heat in this book is good. The writing style is great. The pace of the book is steady. The story is told from a dual point of view. I really liked the minor characters.
In conclusion, I really enjoyed this story. The author did a great job building this world. I would love to see more from it.

This is a fantastic read but be warned it will put you through the wringer it is a really sweet read made me laugh kept me hooked but also broke my heart at times. I really liked both Elliot and Paige they are wonderful characters who are just so perfect for each other. This is a great addition to the series and I would definitely recommend it.
This book pulled every emotion possible out of me ,slowly and painfully…But that’s ok because it then put them all back right where they belong.
Paige and Elliots story is truly beautiful, yet so tragic in parts that I had to stop reading in public or risk being a blubbering mess and have strangers look at me like I was going crazy.
This series just keeps getting better with each book.
If you’ve read Struggle by this author then you will know Elliot from that. He blew a chance at love & is escaping, to get his head together, to London on a working visa for 3mths. (It won’t impact on the story if you haven’t read the previous book).
He meets Paige on the plane & is attracted to her.
She has had a very hard teenage life but finding her birth father lives in England she has decided to go & meet him. These two keep meeting & Elliot tries to break down her walls. I won’t divulge anymore as I don’t want to spoil the story. But it is a roller coaster ride for these two esp at the expiration of his visa.
It is a very touching story & this couple seem to be be a great match. The story flowed beautifully. I was however apprehensive reading the backstory, because of how Paige seemed to have endured a dreadful life, but I was happy on how it was handled.
