Dylan (From the Inside Out, #3) in S.L. Scott Reader Group

I love the fact that S.L. Scott offers readers the opportunity to choose who Jules ends up with in the remaining installments of her From the Inside Out serial. In Scorned and Jealousy, there doesn’t seem to be a clear frontrunner. Jules’ current relationship with Austin, while not forced, is not one that she seems completely invested in…she’s holding part of herself back and only follows through when she needs to run away from Dylan. Dylan is Jules’ past, but he’s now in her present, hoping to I love the fact that S.L.

Jules’ current relationship with Austin, while not forced, is not one that she seems completely invested in…she’s holding part of herself back and only follows through when she needs to run away from Dylan. Dylan is Jules’ past, but he’s now in her present, hoping to make her see that his colossal mistake doesn’t have to ruin the future they would have had; it’s still within their grasp if she’d only give him the second chance he so desperately wants but undoubtedly doesn’t deserve.

I’ll admit – I’ve been Team Dylan since the end of Jealousy. As much as I wanted to loathe him for his treatment of Jules, he allows readers to see how much he has changed and has prioritized his life for Jules. Don’t get me wrong, I think Jules should make him suffer a bit longer and make him work for everything she gives him, but Dylan Somers is the one who knows her…knows her body…knows her soul…knows her from the inside out, and that’s the kind of man she needs to make her life whole.

Austin is still a fantastic choice, and I can’t wait to read his book to see his and Jules’ alternate ending, but I still feel like Dylan is her choice because regardless of their past and the pain he caused her, she still can’t let him go; she doesn’t know if she can completely let him in again and she knows she shouldn’t want him, but she still does and that speaks to a bond that can never truly be broken despite the years or the heartbreak.

S.L. Scott continues to be one of my favorite writers because her stories are expertly crafted with complex characters and a storyline that keep readers invested until they get the ending they’ve longed for since the beginning. I can’t wait to see what S.L. Scott has for us next.

Since both Dylan & Austin come out at the same time, I’m reviewing them together.

They’re #3 & #4 that finish up the serial, From The Inside Out. It’s a brilliant idea! Depending on what team you’re on, #TeamDylan or #TeamAustin, you can choose WHICH ending you’d like. However, I suggest you read both. They’re both really good.

After Scorned, I was totally Team Austin! Of course in true S.L. style, she had me totally flip sides after Jealousy, so I was firmly team Dylan!! LOL I would have never be ...more

If you prefer Dylan, the boy who left and returned as a man knowing what he wanted.
Jules lets him work for it, and in the end they´ve got their love back together and a new life.
Great ending, if you can get over the betrayal he put her through. As a woman who´s been through it, I had a bit of trouble reconciling with it, at the same time it´s a dream come through since it´s the one thing you think of when it happens. =) My heart prefered this ending.

From the Inside Out has been such a great series.

After reading Jealousy I couldn't wait to see who was going to win Juliette's heart.

I loved reading Dylan's story, it was heartwarming seeing them reconnect.
Loved the ending, so many feels!
Perfect way to end this wonderful series.

Thank you S.L Scott for writing another awesome series, looking forward to reading more from you in the near future.

So I went ahead and read both books, Dylan and Austin and though I am happy I did, Dylan was always the right choice for me as well. Not sure why, because, well he was horrible to her three years ago, but you can also see how he changes, how much he loves her and how he fights for her. So this one was my favorite.
