Forever Too Far
M**G
TOTAL Rush Crush!!!
I have been waiting for this book since the second I finished Never Too Far, and I was ecstatic when I saw it was released a day early. I downloaded it immediately and finished it in about four hours. I needed my Rush fix and I definitely have a Rush Crush going on! I just love everything that Abbi Glines writes and this book continued that feeling for me. It is hard to believe that Abbi never really intended on writing this third installment of the Rush and Blaire story, but I am so glad she did. It is such a better ending to their story than the way Never Too Far ended. I am not going to say too much about the story because I don't want to give out any spoilers, so I'm going to do my best to review it without ruining it for anyone who has yet to read it.It is important to know the reading order for these books: Fallen Too Far, Never Too Far, Twisted Perfection, Fallen Too Far. Even though Twisted Perfection is Woods' story, it is written parallel to Fallen Too Far. So, if you read Fallen Too Far first there will be spoilers to Twisted Perfection. Having said that, after reading this book, I'm dying to read Simple Perfection (The sequel to Twisted Perfection). There were little hints in Forever Too Far that there is something kind of big going on with Della, so I can't wait to get further into their story. This book also gives us an idea of what happened to Woods and Della after the cliffhanger ending in Twisted Perfection. It is just SO well written!We also get a little look into Grant, and we already know that Grant will be getting his own book. There has been speculation for a while now that Grant and Nan kind of have a thing going on and that is answered in this book, but I am curious to see how that moves into Grant's own book. We also meet Harlow who is Kiro's other daughter, meaning she is a sister of Nan. Harlow seems a lot like Blaire in that she is beautiful, sweet, and innocent. I have a feeling we will be seeing her again. I am going to predict that she will be in Grant's book, but who knows. I am really questioning his feelings.Nan....what to say about her??? She is just as much of a WITCH as she has ever been. I was a little disappointed in that because when Never Too Far ended it seemed as though she was opening up to the idea of Blaire a little bit because of the pregnancy. Well, she reached a whole new status in this book. I actually got a little bored with her because of all her attitude and self-pity which felt like the same story all over again. I got very frustrated with Rush because he continued to allow Nan to come between him and Blaire. Thankfully, he smartened up, but I was still aggravated. I think Nan ticks me off so much because each one of the characters in this book has major family issues, not just Nan. But, Nan is the only one who can't seem to move on. Blaire has had stuff constantly dealt to her...her mom died from cancer, her sister died in a car accident, and her dad has honesty issues. Yet, Blaire is still a really good person. Rush never had a good homelife, yet he is open to love. Nan is just a spoiled brat. I CAN'T stand her.It was nice to see Blaire and her father reconnect during this story. BUT, Abe reveals yet another secret that he had been keeping from Blaire. What blew me away was that Blaire was just understanding and welcoming of this new revelation. It would not be like that in real life, especially after all the other lies Abe told Blaire. Then again, this is a work of fiction.We knew from the very first teaser of this book that we were going to meet Rush's father, Dean Finlay. I couldn't tell from the teaser if this was a good thing or a bad thing, but I really liked Dean. I think Rush and Dean have a fairly decent relationship. Rush seems like more of the adult than Dean, but overall they have a respect for one another. In a way, I think Dean is a little jealous of Rush's relationship with Blaire because Dean doesn't know what that kind of love is. Not jealous in a bad way...maybe just more uncertain. Dean has some great lines in the book and adds a lot of character. I really enjoyed how he treated Blaire. He never accused her of being a gold digger or going after Rush for status. He welcomed her with open arms. Dean's character was a welcomed surprise for me.As I said in the beginning, this book was the perfect conclusion to their story for me. It went even beyond where I thought it was going to end. We truly get that happily ever after...and then some. I don't at all feel like, "I wish I knew just a little bit more about..." I have all the answers that I really needed and wanted. Not to say that I wouldn't love more Rush and Blaire. I love them and their relationship. I could read a story about them even if it was just about them having 8-5 jobs and raising a family with six kids. But, if it had to end, I'm happy with it.There is a song that Rush sings in the book. I will not say anything else about it because that would be a spoiler, but AFTER you read the book take a listen to the song and download it.Here is the link to the song---->Fallen Too Far Song by Rush FinlayThis book and entire series is a HUGE 5-STAR READ!! I can't express that enough!!

Rush + Blaire FOREVER
"How far is too far?" I asked."It's all too far. I want you right here beside me...forever."Saying goodbye to characters I've loved from the very beginning is always bittersweet. The Fallen Too Far series is what started my obsessive fascination with Abbi Glines and since reading Fallen Too Far I have loved every single contemporary romance book Abbi has written. I was extremely anxious and nervous to read Forever Too Far but as always Miss Glines did not disappoint.Rush and Blaire have gone through multiple ups and downs since they first met. At this point of their relationship, the young couple is determined to keep things on the upside. They are passionately in love, engaged, and anxiously waiting for the arrival of their baby. But before they can settle down as a young married couple, Rush and Blaire must deal with some pressing family issues."Rush was at the center of everything good that happened to me. I believed he always woud be. Strange considering how it had started out so differently."Rush is still very much torn between his loyalty to his crazy family and his responsibility for Blaire and their baby. So when his psycho sister Nan, starts causing trouble in California he still feels obligated to help her out even though he's talked about ridding himself of her drama. As much as I loathed Nan (I'm talking about I wouldn't even waste my spit on her is she was on fire kind of loathing) I understood why he'd want to help his sister out. Rush is the type of guy who loves and protects his loved ones no matter what and I really couldn't be too upset with him over that. No hero is ever perfect and Rush still made some mistakes in Forever Too Far than made me want to shake him. But by the end of the book Rush had me crushing on him hardcore and brought me to tears a few times."When she walked into my house the first time and I laid eyes on her I was attracted to her. that part was easy. But then I got to know her. She wasn't like any other girl I'd ever known. She was so determined when she should have been beaten down. Her life had given her s*** and she was fighting to live. She wasn't going to back down or give up. I admired her. The I got a taste and I was sunk. She's everything I want to be."Blaire is still the same kick-ass Alabama girl who is as sweet as pecan pie. Even after all the turmoil Nan put her through in Fallen Too Far and Never Too Far, she still encourages Rush to straighten his sister out even though she was a living and breathing dragon lady. Blaire understands the importance of family and it's something she was to for Rush and their baby. The girl is so patient, loving and kind that at times I wanted her to just go off on Nan. But then again that's why I love Blaire; because she always takes the higher road and doesn't succumb to the same nasty level Nan goes down to. Blaire shows to Nan and everyone around her how strong of a young woman she is and has a strong back bone. There's on particular scene at the very end that made me throw my fist up in the air and cheer for her. You definitely do not want to be messing with this gun totting Alabama girl."This sweet, determined, sexy-as-hell blonde walked into my life and gave me a reason to live."Abbi Glines also lets us spend some time with old and new characters in Rush and Blaire's lives in Forever Too Far. Grant, Woods, Della, Jace, Bethy, and Jimmy all make appearances plus we get to meet Dean, Kiro, and Harlow. Dean is Rush's father and he totally ended up being someone totally different from what I had imagined. I liked him when I first met him but ended up LOVING him after he cooks the two a hearty breakfast and shows his love and support for the young couple. Kiro is Dean's fellow band member and Nan's real father. Kiro is your typical rockstar legend and I enjoyed the seeing the hellish relationship he has with Nan. Harlow is Kiro's other daughter and is absolutely nothing like Nan. Nan and Harlow are polar opposites and I'm sure you can already imagine that Nan is non too pleased with her. Harlow is a quiet, soft spoken bookworm who likes to keep to herself. She definitely caught my eye along with another character and I'm really curious as to what Abbi Glines has in store for them.Overall, Rush and Blaire fans should be very satisfied with this ending. I have loved every word, sentence, paragraph and page of this series and as much as I wasn't ready to let them go I knew it was just their time. Rush and Blaire have finally got a perfect ending for their story. I just have to keep reminding myself that I'm not saying my final goodbyes to them. Instead, I'm letting them live their well-deserved happily ever after without my prying eyes."I'll do whatever needs to be done to make her happy. But I'll be the one making her happy. Always. Just me."If you are a fan of new adult romance filled with a good dose of drama, passion, and steamy loves scenes, then you must definitely check out this series. Once you meet Abbi Glines heroes, you will never be the same.

Rushed...
Quando eu chego ao final de uma trilogia da qual eu tenha gostado eu sou sempre confrontada com sentimentos paradoxais. O que eu sinto é uma mistura de alegria e tristeza. Alegria porque eu finalmente terei o tão esperado “felizes para sempre” (ou pelo menos assim o espero) e tristeza porque quando você gosta de uma série você não quer que ela acabe nunca. E eu realmente gostei de Sem Limites.Durante esta incrível jornada, nós vivenciamos Rush e Blaire, duas pessoas completamente diferentes, se apaixonarem perdidamente um pelo outro. O relacionamento deles foi uma montanha russa de emoções, cheia de solavancos. Assistimos suas constantes lutas para conciliar seus dramas familiares com o futuro que eles tão desesperadamente tentavam construir juntos. E, mesmo após eles terem finalmente se acertado, no final de Tentação sem Limites, ainda haviam alguns pontos da trama em aberto e outros potenciais obstáculos (leia-se Nan) ao felizes para sempre deles; os quais serão o fio condutor deste último volume.Amor sem Limites não é a estória de Rush e Blaire tentando ficar juntos, eles com certeza já passaram por dramas suficientes para durar uma vida toda. Esta estória é sobre aprender a balancear as suas responsabilidades para com a sua família e a pessoa amada, e saber quem priorizar. É sobre encontrar aquele tipo de amor que faz com que você esteja disposto a fazer qualquer coisa e a largar tudo por ele. Abbi atiçará as suas emoções, com situações particularmente angustiante, assim como os seus sentidos, com cenas quentíssimas.A minha única reclamação, com relação à este livro, é a dimensão dada aos heróis secundários. Aqui, nós seremos introduzidos à novos personagens e revistaremos outros antigos. E, enquanto é possível saber qual direção Abbi está tomando para suas próximas trilogias, eu fiquei com a impressão de que Amor sem Limites serviu como um grande outdoor publicitário para as estórias de Woods e Della e Grant e Harlow.No geral, eu gostei deste livro e o recomendo para todos os fãs de Rush e Blaire que querem vivenciar um pouco mais do relacionamento entre eles. Contudo, não vá esperando novas tramas ou reviravoltas.

A Perfect end to a Perfect series...
What can I say about Abbi Glines writing except phenomenal...We asked or rather I think I begged for a third book and she didn't disappoint. She brought the characters full circle introducing us to great new characters that my greedy little hands can't wait to get a hold of.I'm a little taken aback to see some of the negative comments...Seriously Seriously we begged to get another book about our super couple Blaire and Rush and you put it down. Let's look at the steps to making a good book..1. Did it have charterers in it you loved. YES2. Plot...It had a beginning a middle and a fantastic ending3. Villain...One word NAN....What I wouldn't do to throw a bucket of water on her and watch her melt...or pierce both her ears without messing her hair up...4. Heartache....Um I don't think I was the only one shedding tears on the scare and broken hearted yet again...5. Creating new characters we want. Grant, Harlow, Woods, Della, I wouldn't even mind seeing Jace and Bethy story..I may not be a professional writer but that pretty much sums up about the books I like to read...Ms. Glines thank you once again for making me miss sleep and dream about finishing my book so much I got up at 2:00 am to finish it.Wonderful wonderful wonderful...

Can never get enough of Rush
Wonderful book, lovely having more about Rush. Felt sorry for him battling trying to do the right thing and being pulled between family and Blaire. Nan is causing trouble as usual and I really dislike her even more now - forget her problems as thats just what she is - a problem!! Thought Harlow was lovely and can't wait to find out more about her. At least Blaires Dad seems to improve in this book and Captain is a fun character. Grant included in the story and his story line doesn't disappoint. Great way to end their story and loved the scenes at the end with Della and Woods.
