This was so good! Although it is not my favorite from the Miles High series, it was still great.

I loved getting a little glimpse into everyone’s lives and FINALLY getting to learn about the spoiled, entitled Christopher.

This book was hilarious and had me laughing out loud, then turn around and I was crying. I was all over the place while reading this and I just enjoyed it SO much.

What a perfect way to end an amazing series.

❤️❤️❤️1/2

Enjoyable and entertaining for the most part.
Admittedly some areas felt a little bit slow to me, and I couldn’t help but skim read to the next page, but that could be me personally, it may not be like that for everyone, reviews differ.

One the whole the characters were interesting and involved, they had a good chemistry and I enjoyed their interactions.
Christopher takes a bit to get use to he’s a little entitled for my tastes.
I found Hayden too nice for him.

Is it worth the read? Yes most definitely, enjoy .


I received an Arc copy of this book and chose to post this review

I've had The Do-Over on my most anticipated list forever. I can't begin to tell you how excited I was to read it. So what did I think of it? Well, I have a mixed opinion on it. I loved many things, but one aspect didn't work for me.

To close out The Miles High Club series, TL Swan delivers a funny, steamy, and emotional tale. As expected, the banter between the brothers and Christopher and Hayden is wildly entertaining. There's a good balance between laugh-out-loud humor and heartbreaking moments.

Although I adored Hayden and enjoyed her growth throughout the story, I never fully connected with Christopher. The little things that bothered me about him kept piling up. Christopher is very selfish and used to getting his way without regard for the impact on others. While Christopher redeems himself in the end, it was too late for me.

I definitely recommend reading The Do-Over. Overall, I really enjoyed Hayden and Christopher's journey and glimpses into the lives of the other Miles brothers. I'm looking forward to the recently announced happily-ever-after updates for all of the Miles brothers.

Review
5/5⭐️ you’re never too old for a Do-over!!
This book was hilarious, fast paced, easy to read, dual POV and had a very interesting plot.
It had me smiling, laughing, gasping, questioning my whole entire life and also crying out of pure joy 🥹.
A book about discovering yourself, letting others in, making bonds, having fun, pushing your boundaries and just living life !!
I thoroughly enjoyed the whole series but I just loved how different & unique Christophers story was🤌🏽
Seeing more of all of the extended Miles family was just so heartwarming as well (especially Tristans ☺️)
The hot chocolate scene 🥰🥰🥰🥰🫶🏽🫶🏽🫶🏽🫶🏽 The ending 🤌🏽🤌🏽🤌🏽🤌🏽
I did guess about Eddie but did I still cry? Yes, yes I did 🥺

I'll keep this short and not-so-sweet: when the "hero" of a romance novel makes you nauseous, it's not going very well. I absolutely loved The Stopover, and it feels like every one of Swan's books since then has just upped the shock value, with "heroes" whose actions turn my stomach. As always, her writing is incredibly bingeable and each to devour, but this male lead is SO extraordinarily off-putting that I was left feeling sick to my stomach. The book is also unnecessarily long, so I skimmed a significant portion of it. I was not emotionally invested, and I didn't care if this couple found their happily ever after.

I’ve loved the Miles brothers (though my soft spot always will go to Jamieson 🥰) and though I felt this book was rather different from the others, it still hit the spot.

Christopher has always had everything come easy to him, though he genuinely doesn’t realise it. A true portrayal of someone who doesn’t know how good he has it, he only really finds out when he, in a fit of pique, decides to go backpacking for a year.

Meeting up with Hayden, there are lots of “feelings” but at mainly her behest they decide to try friendship (*snigger*, when does that ever work out!)

Obviously feelings, emotions and *ahem* other stuff happens and at the end of the year reality comes crashing down meaning our love torn couple have to try to find a happy mix between what was, what can be and what will be.

A fantastic love story before anything else, this book also contains a fabulous family dynamic (though not nearly enough of the other brothers as I would have liked to have seen!), giggles and high emotion.

A lovely conclusion to this series, I am crossing all fingers, toes and any available appendages now that the author returns to the Stanton world for her next book..

I heard great things about this book and it did not disappoint! Quick, spicy read that was perfect for getting out of my reading slump. Thank you to the publisher and NetGalley for this ARC.

This book was a complete miss for more. I have enjoyed the other three books in this series and I was excited for Hayden and Christopher's story. Maybe I overhyped in my head because I really thought this was going to be the best romance yet from this author.
But I found Christopher to be absolutely unlikeable. His character was obnoxious. He was an ass. He came across as a self serving jerk. He has major anger management issues and was incredibly unkind to Hayden.

The writing and tone of the story was a miss for me. I only made it to 42% before I gave up. The partying and sleeping around was to much. The constant reference to how Christopher's desire and need for sexual gratification was gross.
The hate on women by both characters was so offensive, I just gave up. This was not a book for me.

I received an ARC from NetGalley. This is a totally honest review.

This book had me cracking up from the very beginning. As a huge fan of The Miles High Club Brothers, Christopher is the funniest one of them. The tone is set right from the beginning of what to expect from Christopher. He is the youngest of all of the Miles High Brothers. He's gorgeous, hilarious, witty, and ideally, with the biggest heart of all the brothers.

If you enjoyed the other three brothers, you would also love this one. It was a slow burn, but one I could say I enjoyed very much. I did not want it to end, as I found it amusing seeing how Christopher was able to find himself on this backpacking to Europe trip. Being in Europe alone and not having to lean on his brothers, he discovered who he indeed was, but most importantly, he finally understood the true meaning of love.

This book had all the spice and everything nice.

I highly recommend all of T.L. Swan's books! She NEVER disappoints.

*Thank you NetGalley for an eARC of this book* and thank you T.L Swan for finishing off the Miles High Series with this story! 5 stars aren’t enough! The Do-Over had me in absolute hysterics at various points in the book! I don’t think I’ve EVER laughed this hard reading a contemporary romance! and I’ve read both the camping scene in The Stopover AND the scene where Tristan meets Harry in The Takeover. Christopher is now my favourite Miles brother (sorry Tristan). Don’t hesitate to pick up this book on its release date, the storyline is a fresh take on the billionaire stories we’ve all come to love from TL Swan.

I have loved the miles high series! This was no different. However the first half was a bit slow for me. I didn’t enjoy the backpacking part very much since this was a billionaire romance. It was not even very fish out water scenario either. However, I did love the romance and how it built. I loved how the happily ever after came about too.

Soo good! Tristian is still my fav, but this whole plot line was PERFECTION. I need to read more books that travel. I now need to visit SPAIN ASAP!

4.25⭐

I was really excited to read The Do-Over by T.L. Swan as I'm a huge fan of the series and whilst Christopher isn't my favourite of the brothers this was an enjoyable and entertaining read. And one character in particular really shone and Christopher did grow on me and as a character especially after he met Hayden.

Not to mention the pace at which the story developed was perfect and with plenty of steam, emotion and lots of moments of fun. This was a great read; it just didn't capture me like the earlier books did and it took me a couple of tries to really get into it. But I'm glad I did and I would happily recommend it to others.

As a whole I've enjoyed this series but this wasn't my favorite of the four. I was very frustrated with Christopher most of the book and while I understood why he did things the way he did I felt the book could have had a little more honesty.

Tristan is still my favorite Miles brother, but I am glad I got a chance to read this one.

I received an advanced copy of this book through NetGalley. This is my honest opinion.

If you liked the first three books in the series, i would recommend not reading this one, it honestly made me hate the miles brothers, the author gave them words and reactions that were so misogynist and downright derogatory towards women.
Christopher was so toxic that reading even the romantic scenes felt uncomfortable, he was literally emotionally abusing and did lots of gaslighting, and Hayden was allowing this, she had this feminist persona at the beginning, but then her love made her so weak, love is supposed to make you strong, it's not about lowering your expectations and limits.
That was a bad ending for a nice series.
* I received an ARC of this book through netgalley and the publisher *

Mehr als drei Sterne kann ich leider nicht vergeben. Ich mochte alle drei vorherigen Teile der Serie und auch in diesem Buch gibt es Momente, die ich sehr genossen habe.

Die Prämisse alleine war schon zu unglaubwürdig um mich wirklich zu fesseln. Ein Milliardär unterwegs mit dem Rucksack?!

Hayden war als Protagonistin okay, auch wenn nicht wirklich irgendetwas herausgestochen hat.

Christopher beginnt als egozentrisches, weltfremdes Kind...und beendet das Buch leider auch als solches. Am Ende wünschte ich mir Hayden würde auf der Farm bleiben bis Christopher lernt, dass sich die Welt nicht nur um ihn dreht.

Leider ein schwaches Ende der geliebten Serie.

BOOK REVIEW: The Do-Over by @tlswanauthor

4 Stars

I was so excited to read this final installment of the series and thankfully it did not let me down.

To begin with, I did struggle to get into the book. Chris (the lead male) didn't exactly endear me to him and I struggled to find a connection at all. In fact I nearly DNFed but am SO glad I didn't as it got much much better once the story progressed a little. This is a strangers that meet when backpacking to friends to lovers romance and I loved how the romance built between the two leads. I especially loved that the lead female Hayden was the one holding the reigns in the relationship and the one that friend zoned Chris! Their chemistry is undeniable and it was so much fun to see them grow closer and closer. I wasn't a fan of some of Chris's actions and don't think he got the telling off he deserved which is why I can't rate this higher.
Hayden was definitely my favourite character. She is a ray of sunshine and I loved how much she loved life and put her all into everything. I really routed for her. I had a rollercoaster of emotions with Chris but ultimately he is a good guy and that really shows towards the end of the book. I loved his relationship with his brothers and with the boy Eddie (which made my heart melt!).
The writing was great and definitely held my attention. I really enjoy T. L Swan's books and can't wait to read more of them. Highly recommend this series to romance (and smut) lovers!

Please note that I was #gifted this ebook in exchange for an honest review.

I’m beyond mind blown. Miss Swan decided to go all out with the last installment of The Miles High Club and I’m absolutely in love with Christopher Miles and Hayden Whitmore.
This book is full of laughs, self discovery, compromising, hot scenes, made families but above all true love.
Christopher embarks on a year long backpacking Euro trip to find himself after realizing that his life is not normal and he needs to find out who he really is. In Barcelona he meets Hayden and they become fast friends. With other backpackers they go all over Europe and it’s the best time of their lives. When the trip comes to an end they have to face reality and life is not always as easy as it seems, even when you’re madly in love with each other.
These to have to really go through so much to get to their HEA but that’s what makes it even more beautiful and worth it in the end. There were times while I was reading that I didn’t understand why the book had to be so long, we could have stop and be happy with the way it was a several points but then we would have missed on the amazing finale Miss Swan gave us. True love, a made family and a happily ever after in Bumf*ck Nowhere, England.

*Thank you to NetGalley for an ARC of this title.*

So I'm gonna cut right to the chase. While I found that part of this book reminded me fondly of previous books that I loved... on the whole this final entry to the Miles High Club was not for me. Since I respect this author I will keep this review succinct and not spiral into the rant that I want.

This book is about Christopher Miles being told by his brothers that he is entitled and doesn't know anything about being a normal guy. This leads him to decide to take a "Do-Over" year and go backpacking through Europe. With only $1500 in his pockets and a fake name (kind of) he heads off to try and survive on his own and meet people who don't know of his privilege. On this trip he meets Hayden, who is taking her own year off of life to get her groove back. She has no idea who Christopher Miles is and if he wants to get with her, he's gonna have to grow up and win a girl with more than his money. (This is a summary in my own words.)

3 Things I liked:
-The Miles family moments. The brothers together in the beginning. The little notes they sent Chris during his travels. And of course, the family dinner where we get a peek at Tristan and a pregnant Claire (I will always STAN these two-perfection!)

-Christopher and Eddie's relationship. Any time these two were together I was melting. I wish there was more of them. I almost rated this book higher just for their interactions. The way Christopher looks out for him and champions him was really cool.

-A few swoony conversations here and there. They do have a very good physical relationship. The author knows how to bring the heat.

3 Things I strongly DISliked:
- The amount of gross things used for humor in the first 30% of this book. (vomit, body hair, animal husbandry, etc.) Like... are we 13 here?

- The amount of times that the dialogue tag referred to Christopher as "yelling, screaming, or raising" his voice. He was speaking in a raised or angry voice more often than he used an indoor voice. Whenever something wasn't going his way, he was screaming. He threw fits and tantrums CONSTANTLY. I know part of this is supposed to be how he is in the beginning... to show a character growth, I guess but... at a certain point I realized it was just his default and it made him so unlikable. Any time Claire wanted to discuss something... he listened for 2 seconds before he escalated. I'm serious, keep your eye out for what volume he speaks in. It's telling.

-And all of this leads to my biggest issue: I don't know how Hayden stays with him. He is a lair, a manipulator, a bully, and when he doesn't get his way.... he leaves. At first I liked that Hayden was patient and that she didn't always jump to conclusions, but eventually... I wanted her to go back to the farm as well. At least the cows aren't going to jerk you around. I know there was a lot of their time on the road that we don't see but... I think she's better off without him.

Rounding this out, I just didn't believe the romance by the time we ended. We spent a big portion of the book with them as friends. Which is GREAT! However, we skip through that time with time jumps and I didn't get to EXPERIENCE all the little things Chris was doing that had Hayden so devoted to her... so when they were together and he would constantly have these tantrums.... I just wanted her to leave.

His brothers were right, he was and still is spoiled.

Hayden and Christopher had the potential to be the best romance yet from this author. But I found Christian to be absolutely insufferable with very little growth in this book, until the very end. He was CONSTANTLY losing his temper and I just did not care for him at all. The ONLY redeeming quality his had was his love and concern for the boy, Eddie.

I did not like the slapstick approach to humor, the non stop partying and sleeping around, and the constant reference to how Christopher "needed" sex and that was a constant conflict in their relationship.

I loved The Takeover but this one was a hot mess.
