Book Series Review: Honeywood Series

Julie Olivia

This series has my heart, and I’ll never stop sharing about it 🙃

I found Julie Olivia last December when I was looking for Christmas novellas to read – I HIGHLY recommend the Fake Santa Apology Tour! It’s hilarious and different and I loved it.

Soon after she had a form open for an arc of Our Ride to Forever, and I jumped at the chance – even though I hadn’t read the series. I read it, fell in love with the entire crew, and went back for more 🐝

This series is now complete – definitely recommend reading it all, from the start.

The Honeywood series follows a group of 5 friends that work together at a theme park. They are a fun mix of personalities, and enjoy their weekly trivia night. Slowly, they each find their “person”, and more join their group. These books will make you laugh, cry, and fall in love, over and over again.

Book Review: Their Freefall at Last by Julie Olivia

by Jill July 15, 2023

written by Jill

It’s the day of Bennett’s wedding, and it’s NOT Ruby he’s marrying. But she’ll always be there for him, no matter what he needs. They’re best friends, forever and always.

We flash back to 7 year old Bennett & Ruby, and see how they meet, become best friends, grow together, and fall apart. So many beautiful moments over the years for these two.

I have no words to say how much I loved this book!
What a perfect end to a series that will forever hold a place in my heart 💙
I laughed, I sobbed – a lot. I’m sad to say goodbye to Honeywood, but looking forward to your next series Julie!

Ruby + Bennett 💙💙💙

I KNEW Julie promised an HEA, but it was a *rollercoaster* (pun definitely intended) to get there. The middle of this book literally had me sobbing and shaking. I’m so attached to these characters!

I don’t want to say too much, because you just need to go along for the ride (another pun for you). This is the 4th book in the Honeywood series, and you definitely should read the others first, to fall in love with Ruby & Bennett even more 🥰

Book Review: Our Ride to Forever by Julia Olivia

by Jill July 15, 2023

written by Jill

Orson and Theo start out as no commitment – just two friends, who are attracted to each other, having a little fun. Neither wanted anything more, and especially not to be in a relationship.

When Theo needs insurance, and Orson is looking for a tax break, they decide to get married, in secret. Their friends are not in the loop on this one!

They end up as roommates, and as they get to know each other better, outside of their physical relationship, they can’t help but fall for each other.

Do you ever read a book and think – wow, I could totally be bff with this author??
That’s Julie Olivia for me.

This was my 2nd read of hers (my first was the Fake Santa Apology Tour), and I immediately went back and read the rest of this series. For all her books I just felt like the way she writes just makes sense to me! The humor, the references, the dialogue, everything.

Theo & Orson – seriously, so darn cute & fun to watch their relationship develop! Two humans looking for fun & non-commitment, who just happen to be absolutely perfect for one another.
There were so many parts to this book that I just loved so much – I was smiling through a lot! The steam was also perfection 👌🏼

Read if you enjoy:
⭐️ Marriage of convenience
⭐️ Cinnamon roll hero
⭐️ Roommates/forced proximity
⭐️ He falls first
⭐️ Friends with Benefits to more
⭐️ Dual POV/first person

Book Review: The Fiction Between Us by Julie Olivia

by Jill July 15, 2023

written by Jill

Quinn plays Queen Bee (the character/mascot) at Honeywood theme park. When her best friend’s twin brother, Landon, and high school bully, gets hired to work at Honeywood, she’s less than pleased.

During one of their shows, Landon falls on stage and the park guests fall for him – and want him to be the next Ranger Randy, Queen Bee’s love interest.

For the sake of the public, this leads to the pair fake dating as their characters. But is it all for show?

I love books set in small towns, and generally want to move to them – but add in a theme park? Sign me up!

Landon is definitely my top book boyfriend at Honeywood. I love how he describes his feelings for Quinn, how he challenges her yet adores her for who she is. Their dynamic and banter is perfect!

The addition of the infamous Honey Pleasure in this book works so well with both characters. Who doesn’t love a blunt older woman?

This is book 2 (of 4) in the Honeywood series. I definitely recommend reading them in order, but they can all be read as standalones.

⭐️ Best friend’s brother
⭐️ Miscommunication from the past

⭐️ Fake Dating

⭐️ Grumpy/Sunshine (her/him)
⭐️ Small town
⭐️ Theme park
⭐️ Dual POV/first person

Tw: mental health (depression), bullying (in high school)
