The. Best. Love story. EVER.
These three books, Crash, Clash, and Crush have been mesmerizing, beautiful, and just down right amazing. I've said forever that Hopeless by Colleen Hoover was my all time #1 favourite book, but this series has got her beet. 

“It wasn't so much what made me fall in love with him... It was more that I couldn't not fall in love with him.” 
― Nicole Williams, Crush

In the third and final book it is three years after the proposal. Lucy is in her final year of college and Jude has just been drafted into the NFL. At 21 Lucy is feeling like things are moving extremely fast. With all these life choices she's looking for some control. So with three years of being engaged she still refuses to get married, her answer always being "someday" or "soon". And after landing a job the summer before her senior year she meets Anton. A cocky multimillionaire, her best friend India's brother, and he is now her new boss. With Jude across the country and them still making things work, Anton is determined to change her mind. Twisting her words to convince her that she's be better off without Jude, and of course, with Anton. Things get even more complex when Lucy discovers that she is 4 months pregnant. With all this stress and fear she keeps this a secret for 2 weeks, until Anton makes a move on her and she being her usual self, slaps that asshole across the face and quits her job. 
Immediately following this Lucy calls Jude begging him to come home and so he does. And accidentally finds her positive pregnancy test. Thinking the worst of her keeping it from him Jude not only accuses her of doubting his abilities of being a father (considering what his father was like) but of the baby not being his. 
Days later with no phone calls or texts, Lucy caves at her first ultrasound appointment and texts him with the location and that she was sorry and loves him. 
With tears in her eyes as she sees her baby for the first time, Jude walks through the door, asking her if he's too late. Taking his hand in hers they watch the image of their baby girl and Jude cries for the first time ever. 
With their problems sorted, Jude asks for the final time for her to marry him. And to his shock she agrees, right then and there, they head strait for the hospital chapel and are finally husband and wife, even consummating the marriage in a spare hospital bed.

After all this, the epilogue is just the cherry on top of all three books. With that boy who thought he'd have no future, standing at the 50 yard line holding his baby girl, and smiling to his wife, that girl he never thought he could have.

“My life wasn’t how I planned it would be. It wasn’t even close. It was a thousand times better.”
