Sweet and unassuming this was nice to catch up with the inhabitants of the lock and Theo, Johnny and Daisy. It was a quick read and I enjoyed it a lot. Glad that Daisy stood up for herself once and for all to her Mum. Thank you NetGalley for this arc in exchange of an honest review.

I haven’t read the prequels to Forever at Wildflower Lock but that didn’t seem to matter as previous events were touched on in such a way that as a reader I understood what had happened in the past . Good characters , good storytelling, I just wanted to give Daisy a good shake ! Recommended.

This is Book 4 in this series, I’ve not read the others, but I think you need to as it jumps right into the story about characters I had no idea about. I started off liking the story, but Daisy became irritated to me, she’s whiny, never happy when she’s got lovely Theo hanging onto her. Maybe I’d have liked it better if I had read the previous books.
Thanks to Netgalley and the publishers for a copy.

This is one of those books where you really need to read the previous ones in the series to appreciate this one. Daisy and Theo are happily settled in their relationship until he pops the question when things go awry.
I did struggle with Daisy and some of her decisions and felt for Theo, however as the story progresses you begin to understand her hesitation. She's always had a difficult relationship with her mother, and his parents (spoiler alert) sound horrendous. Fortunately she has friends in Bex and Claire to help her, but a happy ending isn't foregone conclusion. I'm sad to see the end of this series, but it opens the prospect of new ones from this author for me to enjoy.
I received an advance copy of this book from the publisher through Netgalley, however this did not influence my review of the book.

I had high hopes for *Forever Love at Wildflower Lock* by Hannah Lynn, as I was eager to immerse myself in what I believed would be a captivating story. While I did find enjoyment in certain aspects of the book, I encountered significant issues with the characters that ultimately affected my overall experience.

One of my primary concerns was with Daisy, her decisions and actions throughout the story struck me as unrealistic and often frustrating, which made it challenging for me to connect with her on a deeper level. I found myself questioning her motives and choices, as they seemed impulsive and lacking in maturity.

Additionally, I was unaware that this book was part of a series until a few chapters in. As I progressed, I realized that I was missing some vital backstory that might have provided better context for the characters' actions and relationships. Had I read the earlier instalments, it’s possible I would have gained a greater understanding of Daisy and the other characters, enhancing my connection to the story. Instead, I was left feeling somewhat lost and disconnected.

Overall, while there were elements of the story that I appreciated, Daisy's immaturity and the lack of context for her character ultimately detracted from my enjoyment of the book.

I loved getting back to Wildflower Lock and catch up with all the characters at the canal boat cafe. I enjoyed this one a lot it was such a a refreshing read. Looking forward to more soon. My thanks to Netgalley and the publishers for giving me the opportunity to read this book in return for an honest review.

I enjoyed the book,which an easy and cute read. This book describes how life is like when you get engaged and the arguments, stress and difficult decisions that come with getting engaged. I found it slow at times but still enjoyable. I loved all the characters and the setting of the canal. This book really showed that all that matters in the end is true love and not having the stress and financial worry of a massive wedding.
Would I recommend ~ yes
Thank you Netgalley for an advanced copy of this book, all opinions expressed are my own .

I was really looking forward to revisiting Daisy and Theo at Wildflower Lock but found it a bit disappointing. It started really well but I just became really frustrated with Daisy as she came across as really immature. A decent read but be prepared to find the characters not as well rounded as they could be.

I loved this book. It was so easy to read and the chapters were short. Props on the author for providing that, it helps get through books faster. I loved both Theo and Daisy. I connected with their anxiety about parents. The camping in the plot was an interesting choice. I've actually never been camping but I've read about it in books and want to try it one day. I liked how the characters handled the conflict in the story. However sometimes in real life that doesn't always happen where the character gets back together. It depends on a lot of different factors. I loved Daisy's letter, it portrayed her character really well.

I liked this book.

I didn’t realise this was a series and haven’t read the others. It may have made me understand the characters a bit more if I had read them. Th story was ok but I found it resolved everything to quickly in the end.

Thank you to the publisher and NetGalley for the ARC of Forever Love at Wildflower Lock. As the fourth book in Hannah Lynn’s Wildflower Lock series, it had a charming premise and a wonderfully cozy, atmospheric setting. Daisy’s coffee shop and the canal community were beautifully described, making it easy to fall in love with the world of the story.

Unfortunately, the book fell short of my expectations. I struggled to connect with Daisy as a character, and her decisions often left me frustrated. The overuse of the miscommunication trope also made the plot feel repetitive and predictable at times, which took away from the story’s charm.

That said, Hannah Lynn’s writing is immersive and engaging, and I can see her talent shining through. While this wasn’t a favorite for me, I’m still looking forward to exploring more of her work in the future.

Daisy has a lovely coffee shop on her boat at Wildflower Lock and is loving her life. Her boyfriend Theo proposes to her and all her insecurities come back. Things all go wrong from there

*I received a copy of this book on NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you to the author, publisher, and NetGalley for this opportunity*

Daisy and Theo have had their ups and downs-- but after a grand adventure, and a few miscommunications along the way-- Daisy feels for certain that they're meant to be together forever. However, as one problem after another start to crop up, and Daisy allows her insecurities to boil over, she begins to question if her and Theo are meant to be together <I>right now</I>, much less for forever.

The fourth and final book in the Wildflower Lock series, FOREVER LOVE is one of the biggest will-they-won't-they books I think I've read in a while. I personally had some major issues with Daisy's decisions and actions throughout the story, and it made it difficult to realistically root for Daisy and Theo towards the end. However, this was a super quick read, and did have a satisfying ending if you're a big fan of the series.

I would highly suggest you to read the first three books in this series to know the characters and their story better.

I picked up the ARC without knowing it was a part of a series. However, I absolutely enjoyed the writing and understand what the characters are going through.

Daisy and Theo are engaged. However, the plot deals with a very realistic scenario where you feel all lost and insecure when you are not that sure of a relationship you are about to lose (or need to save).

The book brings you back to reality when it comes to relationships.

Thank you, Boldwood Books, for the ARC.

This is the fourth and last book in the wildflower lock series. It could be read as a standalone but I would suggest starting the series at the beginning for full enjoyment and to immerse yourself in the back story and the lead up to this conclusion.

Like all good things they must come to an end and our time moored up and having a coffee in the idyllic setting of wildflower lock with Daisy and Theo and this instalment explores what the future holds for them and in what direction their lives are going to take.

As always loved the descriptions and the sense of peace and tranquility while reading this series and the memories it has evoked of my past narrowboat holidays.

Another great book from Hannah Lynn in the Wildflower Lock Series. Can be read as a stand alone book and you will understand what is happening. Daisy and Theo live on the canal and Daisy runs her coffee business from there as well. Have they found love and can it be forever? Easy to read with short chapters and loveable characters. Thanks to Hannah and her publisher. Thanks also to NetGalley

Lovely to be back at the canal again but felt it was a bit rushed. Didn't get the same lovely feeling of the canal and the community that we have had before. Loved the angst of the family impinging on the relationship, very few of us manage to exist in a vacuum. Wish it had involved more of the cafe boat.

So nice to be back at Wildflower Lock with Daisy and Theo but what a rocky story this was.
Theo did something really stupid which if he had nicer parents I'm sure they would have advised him to think again. Of course Daisy reacted in the worst way possible and it all went downhill from there.

I realise that both Theo and Daisy are products of their childhood and therefore they don't trust people especially Daisy who has heard so many lies from her mum, who doesn't come out smelling of roses in this book.

After saying all that Daisy was very annoying throughout the story and I'm not sure she even redeemed herself at the end.
Daisy's two best friends must be saints in disguise with what they put up with trying to support Daisy.

This is the last book in this series but I'm living in hope that maybe one day Jessica will visit Wildflower Lock once more so we can look in and see how they are all doing. I'm hoping Bex might get it together with the hot neighbour.

Thanks to Netgalley for the ARC!

Overall I didn't find myself invested in really any of the characters or the plot. There was an odd number of chapters for how many pages the book has.....82 chapters and an epilogue. I wanted to root for the characters but they all seemed kind of flat to me. Daisy is kind of annoying the way she deals with things, even though I should feel bad for her. The plot felt like a mishmash of whatever. Overall disappointed. Also kind of distracting that the dogs name was Johnny.


Pretty cover though, very nice colors.
