Goodreads Synopsis:

Rush promised her forever... but promises can be broken.

Torn between his love for his family and his love for Blaire, Rush has to find a way to save one without losing the other. In the end one has to be more important. Letting go isn’t easy.

Blaire believed in her fairytale... but no one can live in a fantasy.

Her love for Rush and desire to have a family keep her believing that they can find a way for this to work. Until she has to make the right decision for her and the baby. Even if it breaks her heart.

Can they find the forever that they both want or has it all just gone... too far?

My Review: 

“When you find your reason for living, hold onto it. Never let it go. Even if it means burning other bridges along the way.” ♥

            This series has some of the most beautiful quotes. They are so raw and emotional that it makes you wish you had something special with someone. While I truly enjoyed this series, I have to say there were some issues I had along the way.

             First, I was so irritated with Nan. I just wanted her out of the picture as soon as possible. Her character was useless and a filler in my opinion. She was such a baby through out the series. Who cares about your problems? We have bigger ones: Blaire is having a baby with Rush who can't focus on his family because you're acting like a child! Another thing that annoyed me was Blaire's attitude. I understand that her father left her and her mom and she has some issues with men, but Rush was doing everything in his power to be with Blaire. He was desperate to get Blaire back, but she didn't even have the decency to tell him she was having his kid! Like what!? Besides this ridicules drama and some annoying characters--that's you Nan--I enjoyed reading this series. 

              This book wasn't as good as the first or the second but it held it's own in certain areas. Another thing I liked was how the author teased us with Grant and Harlow's point of view, setting the stage for another series but with different characters. I came to love the characters. Rush and Blaire made a cute couple. They finally get their happily ever after (isn't that what we all want?) even if that meant they had to burn a few bridges along the way.

My Review:

Lets go straight to the point. I was extremely disappointed. I have been waiting months for this book to come out and it didn't live up to my expectations at all. What is the problem you ask?! Well lets see...

            1. Blair is always walking away from Rush through out this book.

            2. Blair is constantly denying her feelings for Rush.

            3. Blair keeps going back to the idea that their relationship will never work. Her

                insecurities are over the roof. And kinda pissing me off.

            4. So basically the problem is with Blaire. Make up your mind already woman!

            5. Rush tells Blair he loves her and no one comes before her. Well he kinda left

                Blair left hanging after an incident with Nan. ( your gonna have to read to find

                out what).

            6. I hated Nan.

Though this book had many, many annoying incidents, the characters acted like idiots, and I wanted to yell, I enjoyed reading. This book starts 3 weeks after the incident in the first book and picks up pace quickly. At times it was a bit much for me but I just couldn't help eat it all up. I totally fell in love with the first book and even though this book was a bit disappointing I look forward to finding out what happens to each character. My favorite part about this book would be the POV change. It alternated from chapter to chapter and didn't leave the reader wondering what the other character's were thinking.  And being able to get inside Rush's head was interesting. Hopefully, the third book makes this series go out with a loud bang.

She is only nineteen.
She is his new stepfather’s daughter.
She is still naïve and innocent due to spending the last three years taking care of her sick mother.

          But for twenty-four year old Rush Finlay, she is the only thing that has ever been off limits. His famous father’s guilt money, his mother’s desperation to win his love, and his charm are the three reasons he has never been told no. Blaire Wynn left her small farmhouse in Alabama, after her mother passed away, to move in with her father and his new wife in their sprawling beach house along the Florida gulf coast. She isn’t prepared for the lifestyle change and she knows she’ll never fit into this world. Then there is her sexy stepbrother who her father leaves her with for the summer while he runs off to Paris with his wife. Rush is as spoiled as he is gorgeous. He is also getting under her skin. She knows he is anything but good for her and that he’ll never be faithful to anyone. He is jaded and has secrets Blaire knows she may never uncover but even knowing all of that.... Blaire just may have fallen too far.

My Review:

          Fallen Too Far is the first book in this series and it was....Amazing! Spectacular! Brilliant!  The writing style of Abbi Glines was sexy and made the characters more realistic. This book was a definite "drop what you're doing and read this immediately" kind of book for me. I was instantly hooked and it became addictive. The chemistry between the main characters was steamy and would make anyone wish they had something like Rush and Blaire. 

          Rush grew up as the son of world famous rock and roll drummer. He was of course gorgeous, rich, and every girl wanted him. Who wouldn't? A guy with sexy tattoos, piercings and a killer singers voice equals PERFECTTT in the eyes of any girl.  Blaire on the other hand, was a simple heartbroken girl trying to survive. She struggled to take care of her sick mother, but after she passed away Blaire had no where to go. Except to her father who has been out of the picture since Blaire's twin sister died in a car accident.

          So when Blaire sets out to find her father, she instead encounters Rush, her stepbrother, who happens to get under her skin. A lot. So what's the problem? Well for starters Rush is a straight up player. What guy wouldn't be if he looked like Rush? He was the perfect "jerk" hero, because in the end the heroine would manage to turn him around and bring out the good in him. And truly she did. The sweet part about this story is that even though Rush is a jerk and fights the attraction between him and Riley, in the end he finally accepts it. I just love when the bad boy falls and he doesn't realize he is falling. Abbi did and amazing job in creating the struggles Rush and Blaire faced. They grew a lot as characters and kept the me very entertained throughout the series.
