"𝐈𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐨𝐤𝐚𝐲? 𝐅𝐨𝐫 𝐮𝐬 𝐭𝐨 𝐟𝐞𝐞𝐥 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐰𝐚𝐲 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐥𝐞𝐭 𝐞𝐚𝐜𝐡 𝐨𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫 𝐠𝐨?” The Legend by Dylan Allen is the second installment in the Rivers Wilde series. This a second chance romance that was filled with raw undeniable passion, and swoon worthy characters. Utterly addictive this slow burning second chance love story that was an angst lovers dream. The first half of the story shows how these two met, and the chemistry was sizzling. You could feel the burn through the pages. But when it is present-tense I did feel as if Dylan Allen moved more away from their relationship to family secrets / drama . . . shifted more to romantic suspense. That was my only complaint . . . Now I will say this book was not what I was expecting, in a good way. It's an angst fueled roller coaster. Buckle up, and enjoy the ride.

    I read this story because of the beautiful cover and not so friendly slaps from book friend. And these slaps were the best thing that happened to me because I am Dylan Allen new happy stalker.

    This story was beautiful, from the mysterious Prologue to mindblowing Epilogue. I loved Remi and Kal so much my heart was cheering for them from the very first page and breaking in moments of helpless. When everything was going to be great (in my mind) the plot took unexpected turns. The Legend contains everything a heart desire: strong heroes, suspense, love, happiness, steamy scenes and also happy and sad moments. The story was well written and consuming.

    The Legend showed me that it is good to believe in soul mates and if you are destined to each other you will find your way to your own beautiful happy ending. I can only swoon over Remi and clap for Kal because I love strong and stubborn heroes.

    I can't wait for the next stories and I am sure I will read previous books (my friend even shouted titles to me).

    This story is intense, romantic and full of mystery and suspense. In the the beginning, the story is slow due to identifying each of the characters and the part they each play. Once the story and characters are developed, it takes us on an incredible ride of mystery and suspense. The reader is rewarded with the incredible story of a dynasty and its powerful secrets.

    The Legend is a love story for the ages. It is the perfect blend of emergent love, heartbreak, heartache, and redemption. Reading The Legend is a completely interactive experience that engages the reader's emotions in the beat of all possible ways.

    I have come to expect certain things from Dylan Allen's books. I know I can count on her to bring completely unique characters whose personalities are strong but completley recognizable. I can count on her to bring a multicultural, multifaceted community where I find new and fascinating tidbits to enlighten my knowledge of the world. Most of all, I know I can count on Dylan to provide and angst-filled, enthralling plot, that is filled with twists that can only come from the most creative of minds. The Legend did not disappoint on any of these levels.

    What I also found in this beautifully crafted book was a perfect example of unconditional love that refuses to die despite separation, distance, and deception. Remind and Kal are the quintessential example of True Love's determination to exist and survive when conditions are extremely trecherous, then blossom and thrive when people make the time to nurture it.

    In Dylan Allen's exquisitely manufactured community of Rivers Wilde, I found all the very real-world issues that humans deal with on a daily basis. I also found a tenacious spirit of hope that transcends the hazards we encounter during our life journey.

    The Legend is definitely not a lie. It is a gift and a lesson which reminds us we must find what is most precious and never lose sight of how invaluable love is. It shows us exactly how integral to humanity love truly is.

    The Legend is the second book in the Rivers Wilde series. It picks up right where The Legacy left off...with a bang. The prologue reveals family secrets, but leaves us with more questions. This mystery is a catalyst that starts our hero and heroine on a path of self discovery and eventually back to one another. The relationship between Remi and Kal is one that spans decades. The bond that Remi and Kal first form as teenagers is galvanizing and magnificent. When that bond is fractured it alters the trajectory of their lives in both brilliant and heartbreaking ways. The journey these two endure is awe-inspiring. As Remi says "the love of a lifetime deserves a million chances."

    Remi has a huge heart. He is compassionate, hardworking, and kind. Kal is a survivor. She is curious, empathetic, and resilient. Together they will make you laugh, cry, and swoon. They share moments of wonder that will capture your heart. They push each other to be the best version of themselves. Their love transcends time and outshines the obstacles that they encounter. Mrs. Allen infuses a high amount of drama and emotion into this story.

    "You were everything I wanted before I even knew I wanted it." Simply a love that is undeniable. There is friendship, laughter, passion, yearning, and betrayal.

    Remi and Kal have a long history that has been blocked others - mainly his mom. True love will prevail but not without the drama.

    Epic Love...they had it in spades!!! Remi’s story was a roller coaster of emotions...a ride I never wanted to end!

    The first time they met bonded them for life. Timing just never seemed to be on their side. They both had to live through their own hell to finally get the love that they both deserved...together!

    Remington Wilde was bred to lead his family. To run the family business and be legendary in their town. However, Remi had plans of his own!

    Kal had her own dreams but getting there was going to be a struggle. She came from meager beginnings and a struggling single mother whose solution was to find a wealthy man.

    Two kids who made a lasting impact on one another. They would be in and out of each other’s lives for the next twenty years. This story definitely tore me apart and broke my heart...more than once! But it also made Kal & Remi’s love and their union that much sweeter!

    This love story spanned decades and began to develop when they were in middle school. It started as two people who bonded because of their lackluster home life. A love that flourished when they were reunited in high school. Then torn apart by lies and deceit, their path was forever changed. But a love like their’s, always finds a way back.

    Book three cannot come soon enough. Rivers Wilde is one of my favorite places to visit.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Remi Wilde is everything ! A story that will stay with you forever!
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on May 5, 2020
    This series, this family, the characters, the deceit, the secrets and mystery, the second and third chances .. everything , its got it all and I am loving every single word, even when they are shattering my heart at 1am in the morning and I can’t see because my eyes blurred from the tears.

    I have devoured this read but I am still clinging to every beautiful word written and sad it came to an end, I could stay in Rivers Wilde forever!

    Tho first part is like a learning curve, Remi and Kal are getting to know each and first fall in love and it’s heartbreaking, I had so much anger at Remi

    Then the middle my heart shattered for Remi and I was a blubbering mess, this time I was screaming in my head at Kal.

    Now they’ve both hurt each other but it’s quite simple they are soul mates and they belong to each other.

    The last part I felt like I read on edge, and unexpectedly Bombs were dropped but hearts were healed too.

    Remi is everything - romantic soft and gentle yet that hot filthy mouth of his - whoa he left me in a puddle a couple of time’s !
    Kalilah is the heroine you admire and adore , the underdog in the plot where you want nothing more for their to triumph and hold her head high showing the higher class she’s better than them by a mile.
    I expected The Legend to be as good as The Legacy I just didn’t expect it to be better , I mean how could it be? But it is, everything was just more and I couldn’t get enough.
    An incredible story in and journey of this series and I now wait in so much anticipation for The Jezebel, I only hope aswel as it been a new storyline we still get the family history one running alongside too as there is still too much I need to know !

    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on July 1, 2020
    This is Remi ( Remington ) Wilde’s story he also has the nickname The Legend because of his sports prowess , the Rivers and the Wilde’s are two very dysfunctional families , but I think this story about the Wilde family takes the title of dysfunctional to the next level . Remi has a chance meeting at the age of fourteen ,with Kal ( Kalilah ) a girl who’s a bit younger than him both are hiding out in the library at Remi’s house as his mother has a party which he hates . A problem arises when Kal’s mother who is not welcome there as she has a shady past and is asked to leave well she’s practically thrown out by Remi mother , who as it happens is really not a nice person . The two meet again about four years later when Remi walks into the book shop that Kals mother was opening , soon the two realise that they enjoy being in each other’s company and they start spending more and more time together . Sadly their brief time together is coming to an end as Remi is due to go away to college which pleases his scheming mother & grandfather as they see Kal as an unsuitable partner for Remi . In fact Remi’s mother sees to it that she extinguishes any spark of romance they may have had just before Remmi goes to college ,she then proceeds to blackmail Kal’s mother into move away from the area. The couple do meet again a few years down the line at Reagan’s ( Remi’s twin sister ) wedding . Remington now with Joni a girl who is thought as very suitable by his family and Kal engaged to be married very soon as she’s now pregnant ......... This story has a lot going but it’s well written so you don’t feel that you’re missing out on anything . What is amazing is how many dirty deeds that the Wilde family senior members have done in the past and so many lies that they have said but as with all good stories it’s only a matter of time before they all start coming to the surface . The real question is there a HEA for Remi & Kal if you’ve read the first book you’ll know that answer 😉❤️❤️. Next one is Reagan’s story we’ve already had a little tease at the end of this one ...... can’t wait 😍😍.

    Loved this book! I laughed and cried, what a roller coaster of emotions. It’s a second chance romance. Their story is so frustrating and yet so beautiful. The love that Remi and Kal have for each other is so powerful. They have to go through so much, and face so many obstacles but denying themselves of it, is like trying to live without oxygen they just can’t do it. What a beautifully written story with loads of ups and downs. Just loved the characters.

    Remi and Kal meet when they’re around 14 years old, and have an instant connection but they come from very different worlds and don’t meet again until years later. They still have that instant connection and friendship which leads to them falling in love, but again their worlds rip them apart. So many lies, it’s heartbreaking reading them go through all that pain and suffering. Family can be so cruel!
