Review: Come Away With Me (In Seattle, #1) by Kristen Proby

The In Seattle series is one of my favorites. I love a series that follows a group of people, featuring a new couple in each installment. Series that go 3, 4, and even 5 books about the same couple are annoying to wait for and can make me lose interest by the time the next installment is released. If you're like me, you won't be able to put the books in this series down!

Being confronted on the beach by a sexy stranger wasn't part of Natalie Conner's plans for a peaceful morning taking photos. And why on earth would he think she's taking pictures of him, anyway? One thing’s for sure... he’s hot and incredibly romantic which is exactly what Natalie needs.

Actings superstar Luke Williams just wants the world to give him a break. So when he sees yet another camera aimed at his face, he's ready to pounce on the beauty behind the lens. When he finds out she has no idea who he is, he's intrigued and more than a little tempted by her. Natalie has a body made for sex, a sassy mouth and Luke can’t get enough of her, but he’s not ready to tell her who he really his.

What I love about Natalie is that she's a no nonsense girl who doesn’t do well with lies and secrets. She's honest, sassy and fun. She was my favorite kind of leading lady to read about and her character really made the book for me.

And of course, there's Luke!What girl doesn’t want to bump into one of the hottest movie stars around while on the beach in your small Seattle suburb? (I pictured Taylor Kitsch). He is charming, cute and sucessful and heavy on the romantics. I  liked reading a romance where the man did most of the chasing.

Come Away With Me is sweet and sassy and I couldn't put it down. If you’re in the mood for a book that will sweep you off your feet with romance and charm, start the In Seattle series now!

Review: Forever Too Far (Too Far, #3) by Abbi Glines

 

And it’s here! The final installment of the exciting Too Far series by Abbi Glines. I will admit, I waited a bit before I started reading Forever Too Far because I had a lot on my plate, but I’m happy I did. The story was so great and I loved seeing a happy ending for one of my favorite NA couples.

Rush and Blaire are embarking on the next level of their relationship. With a baby on the way and a marriage impending, these two should be the happiest people on Earth. But just when their blissful lives are about to start together, Nan gets in the way. Rush’s major brat of a sister is having to come to terms with the fact that the absentee father she always thought was hers is actually a rock star. Hoping to keep peace in the family, Rush sets out to try and help this little sis, but it may be at the expense of his unborn son and his future wife.

I really liked this ending to the series. It was a nice way to wrap it up with a neat little bow and also give way to a spin off series that I’m particularly excited for.

Blair and Rush have grown up and grown even closer as the trials of Blair’s pregnancy come to an end. Rush is a sweet, caring, and generous fiancé to Blair and it’s only his love for his sister that seems to get in the way.

Of course we see a lot more of Nan in Forever Too Far. I hate that snobby b*tch. Whew. She makes me angry, but of course, that’s what Glines was going for. In the upcoming spin off series, the main characters are going to be Grant, Rush’s half-brother, Nan and her half-sister Harlow. These are complicated family relationships. It seems the good folks of Rosemary Beach are taking a leaf out of the Star Wars movies. But I’m excited to see where things go with Grant because I’ve been a fan of him since book one and I fell for Harlow. She’s a quiet and well-mannered young girl living amid the dark and tortured lives of rock stars. Can’t wait to see where this goes!

Overall, I really enjoyed Forever Too Far and I can’t wait to see what Glines comes out with next!
