Until Nalia by Aurora Rose Reynolds | Book Review

Oct. 29, 2025

The second generation of Maysons is now complete and I must say that I am sad to see them all coupled up. Now we are going to have to age their kids so we can get the third generation! This second generation has been a wild ride and I have enjoyed every single moment of it.

Until Nalia by Aurora Rose Reynolds | Book Reviewfive-stars
Until Naila by Aurora Rose Reynolds
Series: Until Him/Her #15
Genres: Contemporary Romance

Nalia never expected to move back to her hometown, especially not with her ten-year-old sister in tow. But when her biological mother is sent to prison, she finds herself stepping into the role of parent. Overwhelmed with her new reality, she turns to the one place she has always felt safe. Home with her family.

What she doesn’t expect when she moves home is him.

After getting divorced, Logan Rafe is not interested in another relationship. His world revolves around his two kids and the auto shop he built from the ground up.

But then he meets Nalia Mayson. Beautiful, brave, and completely uninterested.

Using everything at his disposal, including their kids’ friendship, as an excuse to get closer, Logan slowly breaks down her walls. And before long, what began as an unlikely friendship becomes something deeper, something only he saw coming.

But healing takes time, and Nalia will need to accept herself and her past before she can fully let herself fall in love. And the two of them, well, the two of them will need to navigate having children, a school bully, and a complex family situation if they are going to find their happily ever after.

Review


After more than a decade of following the Mayson family, Until Nalia feels like both a love letter and a homecoming. From the very first boom with November and Asher to this final, beautiful story with Nalia and Logan, Aurora Rose Reynolds has given readers one of the most heartfelt, romantic, and enduring family sagas in contemporary romance. It’s been a journey of laughter, love, heartbreak, healing, and family—and this book is the perfect way to bring it all full circle.

Nalia Mayson’s story feels deeply personal and well-earned. We’ve watched this family grow and thrive, but Nalia’s journey—of finding love, peace, and the life she always deserved—hits on a more emotional level. She’s spent years putting everyone else first, carrying the weight of her past, and quietly building a life that gives her purpose. Watching her finally open her heart to love—and to Logan—was the most rewarding experience. This book isn’t just about romance; it’s about healing, belonging, and learning to let someone in even when it scares you.

Logan is everything a reader could hope for in a hero—protective, patient, loyal, and completely devoted. He understands Nalia in a way no one else has, and together, they build something beautiful. Their connection feels effortless yet powerful, filled with longing, laughter, and heartwarming family moments that showcase just how much they complete one another. Between his kids and her sister, Billie, their love story grows into something bigger—a patchwork family built on second chances and real, everyday love.

Aurora Rose Reynolds balances this emotional depth with her signature warmth and humor. The slow-burn tension between Nalia and Logan simmers until it finally explodes in the most satisfying way, reminding us exactly why readers fell in love with this family in the first place. There’s passion, there’s banter, and there’s that unmistakable “boom” moment that makes every book in this series unforgettable.

Beyond the romance, this story captures everything that makes the Mayson world so special—the sense of community, the unbreakable bonds between family members, and the idea that love always finds a way, no matter how long it takes. It’s bittersweet to see this chapter close, but it’s done with so much heart and care that it feels just right.

For longtime fans, Until Nalia is an emotional, joyful, and deeply satisfying conclusion. It celebrates not only Nalia’s love story but also the spirit of the entire Mayson family—one built on loyalty, laughter, and love that never fades. Aurora Rose Reynolds reminds us once again why her characters, her storytelling, and her “boom” moments have meant so much to readers for over a decade.

    I just heard about this book before I saw it on your site. It sounds like a good book. I think it would be hard reading a second generation/third when you knew their parents’ love story.

Mia
 
An island fling was the last thing I expected when I agreed to spend a month on a tropical island with Graham and Soraya as nanny to their sweet little boy. I was planning to relax with the family, enjoy the sun, and get a break from law school...
 
Then a shirtless, tanned Adonis runs onto our beach and into my life.
 
JT is mysterious, rugged, and his gruff exterior should have sent me running in the opposite direction. But something about the man excites me, challenges me to push past my insecurities. And though I don't see myself as a "fling" kind of girl, maybe it's just what I need to move on from my painful past. The trouble is JT has quickly imprinted himself on my soul, and saying goodbye to him is going to break me.
 
JT
 
Going back to the island, the only place I felt like myself, was a no-brainer. Not just somewhere to seek refuge from business, family, and especially women. It's a place of serenity...to clear my head and get rid of the anger of betrayal and figure out what I want to do with my life.
 
Then Mia happens, forcing her way into my heart. Like a violent storm that rushes in, wreaking havoc but ultimately ushering in a new dawn. She sees things in me I never knew existed. But our worlds are spinning in different directions, and no matter how badly I want to hang on, the force pulling us apart might just be too strong for both of us.

Life isn’t fair.

If anyone on Earth should know that, it’s Milena Semyonov.

She’s suffered blow after blow, and the hits just keep on coming.

Just when she’s sworn off being happy, that maybe being numb is the better way to navigate life, she meets him.
Cutter Carson Clayborne.

The man that finally shows her how a real man is supposed to treat her.

Just when she didn’t think life could get any worse, the man that abused her as a young, impressionable teen is back, showing her that life can, in fact, get worse.

When she’s ready to quit, Cutter is there, making sure that she knows that he’ll be there, whether she wants him there or not.

He is her husband, after all. And the unlikely pair have an understanding that they’ll stay married for two years, make a baby, and join two crime syndicates in unholy matrimony.

Cutter has other plans, though. He only agrees to the original plan to make her his.

He won’t ever give her up. What’s his stays his. And there’s not a man on the earth that’ll ever touch Milena again. Not with Cutter alive and able to take out anyone that tries.

Broody. Hot. Intoxicating.
 
Nastya Semyonov first met Haze at a bar, but for Haze Hopkins, duty calls before either can act on their desires. He’s gone without a glance back, leaving her thinking that maybe all the hot looks were only one-sided.
 
Fast forward to the next day, Nastya hitches a ride to her car that she left behind the night before, only to run into the same man from last night.
 
Neither one truly thinks before they act, and they spend a hot fifteen minutes in a fast-food restaurant bathroom before parting ways again.
 
It’s as she’s walking back to her car that she realizes how badly she’s screwed up.
 
Because her car is surrounded in police tape, and there’s one very angry man wearing a badge standing in front of it with her name on an arrest warrant for killing a man.
 
Mistakes were made. Repeatedly.
 
But Detective Haze Hopkins isn’t complaining.
 
He was ready to quit, anyway.
 
Crime pays better.

There was right, there was wrong, and then there was the in-between.
 
The place where normal people reside, understanding that there are two sides to every coin. People that do bad things for good reasons. People that do bad things for bad reasons.
 
First, I knew that Shasha Semyonov was a bad man. One that did bad things for bad reasons. That didn’t mean that I was rational when it came to him.
 
He was toxic to my health, yet I wanted him anyway.
 
They say the first step to healing is admitting when you have a problem.
 
My problem happened to be six feet two inches tall, two hundred and twenty pounds, and bearded to perfection.
 
Oh, and he was also the scariest guy I knew.
 
Meanwhile, I was the laughingstock of the city.
 
The woman who was cheated on by her boyfriend with her best friend, and it was captured live while a band played in the background, perfectly accenting the humiliating video.
 
There was no way that Shasha Semyonov would notice me.
Right?
 
Wrong.
 
I’d definitely been noticed.
