From #1 "New York Times "bestselling author Abbi Glines comes a brand-new Rosemary Beach novel about Tripp Newark and his hidden romantic past with Bethy Lowry.
In the eyes of the wealthy playboys who frequent Kerrington Country Club in Rosemary Beach, Tripp Newark is a hero. Under pressure from his parents to become a lawyer and lead a conservative, upper-class life, Tripp disappeared from town five years ago to travel the world, forfeiting the opportunity to inherit millions. Yet few know what he was really running from...

A trailer park kid working as a cart girl among the wealthy patrons of Kerrington Country Club, Bethy has always been impressionable. But five years ago, before she earned her reputation as a hard-drinking, easy girl, she had spent a single summer with Tripp Newark that changed her life forever...

It feels like I have been waiting forever for Tripp and Bethy's story and when I saw that it was to be the next in the Rosemary Beach series, I jumped at the chance.
Finally, I would get the background info and the full story of what happened to Jace, never mind what in the world happened between Tripp and Bethy.
And oh boy did I get it.
I think this might every well be my most favorite book in the series yet. I loved it, I devoured it, and I was left feeling complete when it was done.
Tripp was amazing and I wanted to reach through the pages and squeeze him tight and tell him not to give up and to go after what he wanted, what he deserved.
This was the perfect length with the perfect amount of hot steamy moments and sweet tender moments.
Once again Glines has wowed me with her ability to create a love story worth swooning over and thinking about long after you have put it down.

Did someone say hot and steamy moments? That would be awesome if there are a lot of that in here! ^^ Are the books episodic, or do you need to read the rest to understand this one?
ReplyDeleteFaye at The Social Potato
You do't need to read the rest to understand them but there would be spoilers for the other couples since they are present in this but nothing big.
DeleteI always wanted to try a Glines book. Sounds good.
ReplyDeleteYou should, they are definitely good!
DeleteDon't you just love it when you get a chance to be a part of the tour for your favorite authors and series? :)
ReplyDeleteI'm glad to hear that you enjoyed reading latest Glines novel. I still haven't started reading this series, but I plan to.
Yes, it really is so much fun!
DeleteI used to follow this series! I don't even know how far back I've gotten. Anyway, glad you loved it, Ali. :)
ReplyDeleteGlad you have read some of them!
Delete"I think this might every well be my most favorite book in the series yet. I loved it, I devoured it, and I was left feeling complete when it was done."
ReplyDeleteYAY! Love it when I find a book like this - one that I simply can't put down and want to pick up again and read immediately after finishing. I have yet to read anything by Abbi Glines which I know is a complete fail, but I'm hoping to get to her in the near future:)
Hopefully you can squeeze her in sometime. ;)
Deletei heard lots of good thing about Abbe's writing ,, i really should read one of her books!! lovely review
ReplyDeleteYou should, they are all fabulous!
DeleteI should dare myself to read at least one of her books and sample her writing style. I'm not sure if the stories are for me but I don't want to miss an opportunity to try a good writer.
ReplyDeleteBetter yet, I will dare you! :P
DeleteKIndlemom, thanks for this great review and showcase, I'm starting to get into NA more and this looks like a series that's right up my romance-addicted heart :)
ReplyDeletethanks
deb
Definitely high on the romance. ;)
DeleteI must read this series ASAP! A couple of people of recommended me this author after I enjoyed NA like this, like Jay Crownover, so I must must get to these authors books. I'm so glad she is continuing to wow you! Thanks Kindlemom! :D
ReplyDeleteI highly recommend her if you like this genre and don't mind some drama. ;)
DeleteThis sounds like a winner in the series, and maybe your favorite as well - I need to take a look again at this series. Glad you got Trip and Bethy's story :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Kim and I think it was my favorite. :)
DeleteSo glad to hear you're still enjoying this series! I need to catch up so badly! :-)
ReplyDeleteCatch up, catch up! :P
DeleteYou should give her a go.
ReplyDeleteI've only read one of her books and I wasn't the biggest fan, but this sounds pretty good so maybe I should try this series instead. :)
ReplyDeleteI hope you do give her another try, some are definitely better than others.
DeleteI like how it wasn't the main characters you were looking forward too. These kinds of books where different characters are the main usually have such great characters.
ReplyDeleteI agree, sometimes those secondary characters are just fabulous and need their own book!
DeleteIt's awesome that by the ninth book in the series, you are still loving it. So many series of that length go downhill, so glad to hear this one doesn't.
ReplyDeleteIt is really fun when that happens and I think that you can read these as stand alone books, really helps.
DeleteShe's another I still need to try out. I have one of hers it just keeps getting pushed back for review books. So awful. I'm going to try for it this next year though :)
ReplyDeleteI know exactly how that can be Anna.
DeleteSo she's kind of a party girl? Nice. Hmm maybe I should give this series a try.
ReplyDeleteDefinitely a party girl in this.
DeleteOh yes it's always so interesting to have background of a story like that! I understand why you enjoyed it.
ReplyDeleteThanks Melliane!
DeleteI enjoy her writing and characters as well! This looks like a cute story, bah completely missed the book before this one I think
ReplyDeleteYou would be okay to read this without having read the one before. ;)
Deletethis is a long series :). Your review is awesome.
ReplyDeleteIt is a long series, especially for an NA one.
DeleteSo excited about this one. I bought it in audio and it will be the next book I listen to. I've been putting off this series forever, so I ended up getting all the audio books and I am caught up until this one, and I have thoroughly enjoyed them. Great review!!!
ReplyDeleteSo happy you are listening to them! I bet the audio is fantastic!
