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?
Too Far series is like an old TV show you just want to watch and watch and still watch over and over again even after midnight and hours and hours of sitting in front of the TV...even if all that is happening is purely nonsense. It just carries that addicting gene and quality into its story that will make readers want to latch on and read on and on more about the characters and the endless charades of family and romantic dramas.
Fallen Too Far, the first book in the series, totally took off with a lot of fans that lead to book number two, Never Too Far. Fallen Too Far had all the qualities romance book readers like- two in love people and the drama...sappy and over the top drama. In all fairness, Fallen Too Far had a main center plot, and the ending just extended the inevitable happy endings for the couple in the story. Hence, Never Too Far. But even that second book was not enough to cover all the damaged goods. Forever is just needed somehow. I totally get it why Forever Too Far must exist (because I was one of those who thought Never Too Far ended too fast and just not there). And honestly speaking, Forever Too Far was a lot of too much. I felt like the cup of happiness and endless cycle of same problems and insecurities each character has (Rush and Blaire) was overflowing to the point that I can barely swallow them up and take them in. But unlike the previous novels, they pretty much matured (?) here and dealt with their problems faster and more convenient than they did in Fallen Too Far. Which was I’m telling you a huge relief. They learned something at least. The only concern (tiny) I have is that about just the beginning of the novel (3rd book), everything was already settled in...or maybe halfway. or quarterway. The point is, the book is already finished and had its happy ending even before it was even there. And so, the other pages? Just a series of events about other people having their happy endings too...and just practically the everyday lives of the main couple in the story. But what made this the perfect closure for me was that “seeing them settled” is the key on that closure. As I’m sure fellow readers of the series also felt. And now, another potential couple just made the list of another possible spin-off novel.
Writing wise, Abbi Glines write easy to read, romantic, cheesy and very steamy novels, that other particular readers might get uncomfortable with too. But basically, the characters she writes about just gets into you no matter how cheesy and how they narrate their stories. Its her magic. lol. I’m just happy the Rush and Blaire saga has finally ended..and I’m ready to move on if you are.
Just a note! I totally gushed at the wedding scenes and pre-wedding scenes in the book. Abbi Glines sure knows how to write them! Rush giving those sweet somethings and the song! my gosh the song! I totally downloaded it and it’s just the perfect song for them. BIG SIGH. SWEET!
