Thanks to NetGalley and Harlequin for access to to an ARC for review.

This was a very strong 4 star read - I am very stingy with 5 stars and reserve it for favourites I go back to over time so it is exptremely rare for me to think of a new book as a 5 star read.

The Last Days of Lilah Goodluck is a delightful fairytale falling into the Kylie Scott category of everywoman with famous/rich/both man. I consider the Stage Dive series, Famous in a Small Town, and Fake to be in this category. The second category is where both MCs are "normal" people - Repeat, Pause, and the Dive Bar series fit here. Plus the zombie books. The story is told entirely from Lilah's POV and she feels like a real person doing the best she can. Alastair has his own things to be working through which I always like. Lilah's parents and Alastair's mother are a lot of fun and Lilah and Alastair both seem to have great friends.

The fairytale aspect comes into play immediately - Lilah is given several predictions from Good Witch Willow (fun character!) including the name of her soulmate (famous and rich and lives locally) and when she will die (a week from Sunday). When the first couple things she is told come true and she nearly runs into the car of soulmate the next day Lilah is understandably freaking out. It's a romance so it all works out and we have a lot of un along the way.

Highly recommended. This review may shift to 5 stars on re-reads.

I absolutely loved this book! Lilah does not believe in the supernatural. Enter the witch Likah saves after her best friend’s birthday party. In appreciation, the witch foretells things including the name of her soulmate, the winning lotto numbers, and two other things. She of course does not believe her at first, but then things start coming true. The worst prediction is that she will die by Saturday. Enter Alistair, her soulmate, who she collides with in a parking lot. Neither one believes the witch. But each set out to complete her bucket list. This book totally blew me away! Loved it immensely! 5 amazing stars

I didn't really feel the chemistry between the two leads, but I was on board with this one anyway until about 50% when ****spoilers***** the MMC, who has known Lilah for only a few days at this point, physically prevents her from leaving his house, attempts to pressure her into sex despite multiple refusals, and then kisses her in a manner she did not give him permission for. DNF'd on the spot.

Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for the arc! Opinions are my own.

This was a very enjoyable read! Lilah Goodluck meets a psychic who tells her she only has a week to live. What she does with that week is up to her.

Overall, I really like the premise of the book. I’m always drawn to books that feature a bucket list of sorts; there’s a lot of action throughout the book. I also loved the fact that the main character is a librarian and loves books! Library people, unite!

I won’t lie, this book made me have a couple of existential crises while reading, which was not fun, but at least it meant I connected with the book (I guess…)

The book was a bit too spicy for my taste, but seeing some of the other books she’s written previously, it kind of makes sense…

Also, the book ended a bit abruptly, which I didn’t love… Oh well!

Thank you to NetGalley for the free ARC in exchange for my honest review!

Librarian Lilah Goodluck lives a good life. Solid, stable and a bit boring, but she’s content. Then Lilah saves The Good Witch Willow from being hit by a car and her life starts to spin out of control. As a thank you, The Good Witch Willow makes five predictions about Lilah’s life: her boyfriend is cheating, she won’t receive a promotion at work, the winning lottery numbers, the name of her soulmate, and that she will die next Sunday. Lilah shrugs this off at first, but then the predictions start coming true. When she almost runs Alistair Lennox, illegitimate son of England’s King and Lilah’s alleged soulmate, off the road, she really starts to panic. Lilah decides if she’s going to die in a week, she needs to start living first and creates a bucket list of things to accomplish. To her surprise, Alistair volunteers to assist her. As the week progresses and Lilah finds herself falling for Alistair, her imminent demise becomes more and more likely.

The Last Days of Lilah Goodluck by Kylie Scott is phenomenal! The premise is original, quirky, and fresh. It sparkles and pops! It’s a fast read, the condensed timeline allows the plot to move along at a quick clip. Scott’s snappy, quick witted writing style lends itself to the pace of the book and allows it to shine. Scott has the best sense of humor and this book is FUNNY! The situations Lilah finds herself in are hilarious and the characters are witty and smart. The secondary characters are hysterical, especially The Good Witch Willow and Alastair’s mother Lady Helena. Everything Scott writes is a must read for me and The Last Days of Lilah Goodluck was not a disappointment. Enjoyable, heartwarming, and spicy. Absolutely fantastic!

I'm a sucker for a contemporary romance that is completely realistic except for, like, one single thread of magic/supernatural stuff. This completely delivered on that for me - just like Kylie Scott's last book did - and I just had a great time reading it. Lilah is a very relatable main character. She's right around 30 and not totally satisfied with her life. At her best friend's birthday party, a local fortune-telling witch (the Good Witch Willow, now my favorite witch name of all time) has been hired as entertainment. Lilah can't decide what to ask, so she leaves without getting her dose of prognostication, but a few minutes later she saves the Good Witch from getting hit by a driver running a red light, and she gets her prediction for free anyway. Her boyfriend is cheating, she won't get the promotion, she gets some lottery numbers, her soul mate is a celebrity that she's never met, and she's going to die next Sunday. She's thrown by the whole weird experience, but then the predictions start coming true - she catches her boyfriend treating, finds out she's being passed over for a promotion, and then totally by chance meets her supposed soul mate, the not so secret illegitimate son of the King of England. She almost crashes into his car, and when she tells him about the weird predictions, they start an unexpected friendship. Her fear that the death part of the prediction will come true, Lilah takes a week off work to spend her possible final week on earth doing things she's always wanted to do but hasn't, including eating at a Michelin starred restaurant, riding down the PCH in a convertible, going on a motorcycle ride, and having great sex. Her "soul mate" and new friend Alistair decides to help me with some of the items on the wish list, and... well, it's a romance, so you can guess what happens. I loved Lilah and Alistair and thought they had great banter and chemistry. Like Scott's last book, there was also some tackling of serious topics here - what would you do if you only had a week to live? - but it was balanced so nicely with humor and some sweetness that it never felt like a bummer.

The Last Days of Lilah Goodluck had a lot of good, and a lot of not so good. Kylie Scott usually knows how to write a swoony romance but this particular story was a little underwhelming sometimes. While I enjoyed this book, it didn't really live up to what the synopsis promised. But overall this was perfectly fine, enjoyable, quick, funny, and relaxing read. BUT it had Insta Love (yes, if the whole story takes place in a weeks time I call that insta love) and even though it was done well it's still Insta Love and I JUST CAAAAAN'T. The romance between them was cute I have to say, the chemistry is there and it doesn't feel forced, the smut is really hot as always by Kylie. But overall I can say, while little cheesy and over the top in some places it was mostly easy and cute. Not my favorite Kylie Scott read, but still an enjoyable and warm romance that her readers will love!

When she saves a psychic’s life the woman repays Lilah with a little peek of what’s to come: a warning about her boyfriend, the winning lottery numbers, the name of her soulmate, and the fact that Lilah will die in just a few days.

I really adored the setup of this book, and the writing was good. However, I wasn’t expecting the British royal family angle or for that to take up so much of the story. That is my mistake for not reading the cover copy more carefully.

A delightfully silly romcom, where a slightly downtr0dden librarian gets love, respect, money, and a hot Scottish (illegitimate) prince? Say less.

I would hate to give spoilers, so I’ll keep this brief, but these two were everything. Their arc and growth was phenomenal, and the romance so swoon worthy. By the end, I cried happy tears . So loved and enjoyed it.

Is it weird that I’ve been sitting on this review for like a week because I’ve been too excited about how much I LOVED it AND I couldn’t put that excitement into a cohesive and coherent review?!

I still really can’t, but I can say this is my 2nd overall favorite book (#1 Romance) of the year!

✨The characters and their character development: AHHHHMAZING❤️

✨The bucket list: BEAUTIFUL❤️

✨All the swoony parts:😍😍😍

And last but not least GOOD WITCH WILLOW making this whole situation happen👏🏾😅

I really have no complaints which is very unlike me even with some favorite books of all time!! Thank you for this masterpiece of a book @authorkyliescott !!! You have a fan (me🙋🏽‍♀️)for life now💖

This book comes out in February 2024 and I can’t wait for everyone to get a copy so we can gush about it together!!!

Needless to say this was a SUPER 5.00⭐️ book!!!

Special thanks to @netgalley and @graydonhousebooks for the review copy!!!

I absolutely loved this story! Kylie has such a sense of whimsy and fun. The main characters, Lilah and Alistair, are likable and relatable. I like the witty repartee and the undeniable chemistry between them. The secondary characters are a hoot, too, lots of dialog to make you smile. You can read the blurb to get the plot, this is my reaction to the story. I have read many books by Kylie and have enjoyed every one. This is just the newest one on the list. 4.5 delightful stars.

The Last Days of Lilah Goodluck was a little different than what I've come to expect from Kylie Scott, but I still really enjoyed it. It was filled with an entertaining plot, hilarious moments, great characters, and a love to root for.

Lilah was a lot of fun. Things were going fine in her life until a run in with a witch/psychic changed everything in her life and gave her a week left to live. I loved how Lilah reacted to that news and how she decided to go forth with the remainder of her days. The best part of it all was how she met her "soulmate" Alistair. He's pretty much royalty, so they shouldn't have met, and they shouldn't become friends, and she shouldn't have fallen for him. Lilah and Alistair's scenes together somehow managed to be both funny and sizzling. I was surprised at the emotional depth between them in this instant love-ish romance. 

We only get Lilah's POV in this book, but I didn't crave Alistair's. It might have been because I liked how he was a little mysterious to Lilah and the reader. She couldn't quite believe his involvement in her life due his fame. He was a little intense and kept things close. I loved how he showed up for Lilah during the week and brought her into his life when he least expected to be doing so. Their romance was adorable.

There were some fantastic side characters in this book. It didn't surprise me, since Scott excels at writing those. I laughed so hard a couple of times at both Lilah's parents and Alistair's mother's antics. I also loved the camaraderie between Alistair and his friends. The only time I wanted Alistair's POV was when it came to his friends and the significant other thing. That was a whole story in itself that could have been written about more. Oh! And I can't leave out Good Witch Willow. She was a fun character. 

The Last Days of Lilah Goodluck was a good, memorable read. I enjoyed the characters and their romance. If you're looking for a fun, different take on a royal romance, this would be one I recommend.

I read this book in 15 hours - I loved it that much. I couldn't put it down. The characters were great. The banter was top notch.Even though you can probably guess the ending, it doesn't matter; The journey is fantastic. It's the kind of book that when you finish it, you want to immediately reread it. I hope we get a sequel, because I want more with these characters and this world.

The Last Days of Lilah Goodluck by Kylie Scott was a fun mashup of romance, royalty, and touch of paranormal.

I don't even know where to begin with this book! This was such a fun and fresh take for a romance novel! I am a true romance reader but I do occasionally feel the need to branch out a little bit, and this was such a fun way of branching out while still staying in the romance genre. It was such a unique premise that I was so excited to finally sit down and read this book.

:Let me start by saying Lady Helena and Dougal are two of my favorite side characters of all time! They brought so much comedy to this book, I was looking forward to every time they were on the page, particularly Lady Helena. Dougal was also such a great father figure - he melted my heart in every scene.

As for our two leads, I was obsessed! Lilah was so well-fleshed out that she literally flew off the page. Reading her character feels like hanging with an old friend! I loved how patient she was with Allistair while still acknowledging her own feelings. I loved that she acknowledged the issues he had within himself instead of thinking "What is going on idk why he's acting like this." She felt so mature and sensible and I loved it!

The only real annoyance I had with the book which was minor was there were a few parts that felt a little millenial and this is coming from a millenial. The lines were "giving grandma the tea", "emotional support hoodie" and "love that for you"

I love Kylie’s books. This is a bit different than other stuff I’ve read by her but still just as enjoyable. This would fall into the instalove category. It was a fun book. Great characters, a bit different plot than we’ve had with previous books by Kylie. The book also had a good amount of spice and was a fast paced story. I thought it was an enjoyable read.

Damn Girl. Another hit out of the park for Kylie!

I've followed Ms. Scott for years and every time a new book comes out, I always turn into that giddy girl knowing something fantastic is coming. The Last Days of Lilah Goodluck was exactly what I needed. Great characters...interesting plot...perfect amount of spice...and an ending worthy of a swoon and a big ol' sigh.

Lilah is told in the first few pages that her boyfriend is cheating on her, her job doesn't appreciate her (she should totally quit), a few winning lottery numbers, her soulmate's name, and that she is going to die on Sunday. When the first three things come true, Lilah just knows her days are numbered. She sets out with a list of things to do before she dies.

I don't want to give much more away but just know, the soulmate is a total perfect book boyfriend...there are zany relatives...funny friends...and a tattoo and other wild things.

Utterly a five star read for me. I couldn't put it down and read it in one day. Bravo Ms. Scott, Bravo!

"The Last Days of Lilah Goodluck" is a modern fairytale that combines the charm of "Pretty Woman" with the whimsy of "The Princess Bride." It takes readers on an endearing and entertaining journey into the life of Lilah Goodluck, who inadvertently saves the life of a witch and clairvoyant named Good Witch Willow. Little does Lilah know that this good deed will set her on a path filled with unexpected twists and supernatural predictions.

After rescuing Willow, the clairvoyant reveals a series of unsettling prophecies for Lilah. These predictions include revelations about infidelity, the identity of her supposed soulmate (Alistair George Arthur Lennox), missing out on a promotion, winning lottery numbers, and the shocking prospect of her impending death next Sunday.

At first, Lilah finds these predictions too absurd to believe. How could her seemingly sick boyfriend be cheating on her? But her life takes a sudden turn when she has an unexpected encounter with Alistair, akin to the classic moments in movies like "Sliding Doors" or "Bridget Jones's Diary." Strike one!

Things take another unfortunate turn when her unappreciative and exploitative boss unjustly awards a coveted promotion to someone else. Strike two!

As Lilah's world unravels further, she finds herself in a car accident, coming dangerously close to colliding with an Aston Martin. To her astonishment, the other driver turns out to be none other than Alistair George Arthur Lennox, the very man Willow foresaw as her soulmate. Can this really be happening?

Stunned by these peculiar events, Lilah seeks refuge in checking the lottery numbers, only to discover that she's now considerably richer. However, the ominous prediction of her impending death next Sunday lingers over her. She refuses to accept her fate and starts compiling a bucket list, just in case the prediction proves true. Instead of succumbing to despair or outright denial, she embarks on a journey of self-discovery and adventure. She also finds an unexpected companion in Prince Charming Alistair, who is determined to help her tick items off her bucket list.

Alistair sweeps Lilah off her feet and takes her on a whirlwind tour, including a scenic drive along the Pacific Highway, a visit to Ladyship Helen for absinthe, and an exquisite meal at Helen's house, thanks to her insistence on spiritual cleansing. While the paparazzi believe Lilah to be Alistair's latest conquest, she gradually uncovers the caring, sweet, and somewhat enigmatic man beneath his aloof exterior. What if the predictions were right, and they are indeed soulmates? Can their budding relationship withstand the impending royal scandal, the relentless paparazzi, and the grim prediction of Lilah's impending death?

Overall, the romantic aspects of Lilah and Alistair's relationship may seem a tad rushed, but this book offers a delightful fairytale experience where a quirky librarian meets a bad boy in a rebound scenario before finding true love. The story is a fast-paced and thoroughly enjoyable read, with captivating supporting characters, particularly the endearing Lady Helen. As a devoted fan of Kylie Scott's works, I wholeheartedly recommend "The Last Days of Lilah Goodluck" to anyone seeking an escape from reality and a lighthearted romance that will leave you with a smile.

Many thanks to NetGalley and Harlequin Trade Publishing/Graydon House for providing me with a digital reviewer copy of this entertaining book in exchange for my honest thoughts.

I really liked the premise of this novel but I guess I didn't realize how much of the second half was going to revolve around Ali and the royal drama, which I wasn't as interested in (though his mother was great). Also I felt like the sex scenes were a bit cringey? Was it just me? Am I a prude now? I can't pinpoint what it was exactly but they weren't doing it for me. Overall this was a fun read though.

Kindly received an ARC from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
