Twisted Perfection Series By Abbi Glines


Perfection Series By Abbi Glines
(part of the Rosemary Beach series)


Rating: 5/5

E-Book Price: $11.98

Review: 
I have put off reading this series for a while now as it didn't have the best reviews I have seen of Abbi Glines books and I was scared one of my favorite authors was about to be ruined! Not the case! I loved this series, it is exactly what I expect of an Abbi Glines novel.  

Was there similarities between Rush and Woods? Of course. That being said there are many similarities between many new adult male characters; they are overprotective, overbearing, completely obsessed with their new love, etc. Did I think they were too similar to enjoy the series? Absolutely not. Heres the thing with Rush his problem with Blaire is more about him accepting the fact that he is going to be a one women kind of man. This is not the same dilemma Woods faces with Della; he has no problem settling down as long as it is on his own terms. Woods resigned himself to the fact that his father was going to control his life; he just wanted to have a little fun first before he had to marry the girl of his fathers choosing. When he sees Della at a gas station he thinks what a great way to have a little fun and blow off steam since she was just passing through town anyway. When their worlds collide again Woods can't help but question everything his father has set up for him. 

The question now is will Woods fight for what he wants and possibly lose everything he has always worked for or succumb to his fathers wishes?

We find in this story that Della and Woods both have a lot they need to work through individually before they can even think about getting into a real relationship. Della was such an interesting character; she has a past that I promise you wont see coming. 

And like usual we got to delve more into the characters we all miss from the Rosemary beach series! Abbi Glines writes her books in such a way that you can keep tabs on previous characters without losing the fantasy of the new story.

Ps. Some crazy stuff happens in this book relating to other characters! I ended up reading Grant's book before this and got really confused so I suggest reading this prior to Take A Chance (Grant and Harlow). 

Can't wait for her next book!!

Sometimes it Lasts (Sea Breeze #5) by Abbi Glines

Sometimes it Lasts (Sea Breeze #5) by Abbi Glines

E-Book Cost $1.99

Rating 4.5/5

Review

So this book is just one of the reasons why Abbi Glines is one of my favorite authors. She has created this series where all the characters are friends so we get the love stories of each of the characters.

This installment is the second book for Cage and Eva but the fifth in the Sea Breeze series.

So the story picks up after a little time goes by from where the first one ended. Eva moves out to Sea Breeze with Cage where they continue their whirlwind romance.

Things are going great for the couple, Cage just accepted a scholarship in another state and Eva plans to transfer schools and follow him out there. Their plans are altered when Eva get bad news regarding her fathers help. Eva decides that she is going to move back in with her father while Cage goes off to college. To say that they are both unhappy with this arrangement is an understatement. Cage would give up everything to be there for her but she doesn't want him to skip out on his dreams and resent her one day.

Without giving anything away; the trust they thought they had with each other is completely shattered after a couple of unfortunate events. Cage and Eva are both riddled with their own insecurities making it difficult for them to do and say what they really want to.

You can expect a strong connection with a lot of chemistry, a disaster of some sort and of corse several steamy scenes as with any Abbi Glines book. She some how has this formula that hooks me in every time. It seems like the stories would seem the same but the author does a really good job of making the character very different people with very different personalities.

Can't wait for the sixth Sea Breeze installment, Misbehaving, set to be released December 17th. Misbehaving will focus on Jason; Jax's younger brother!! Loved him in Preston and Amanda's story so I am excited to see how his story plays out!!
