THE BEST GOODBYE — 


The look on Rose’s face had screamed that she was hiding something. Hell, she’d practically run away from me. There was something to that. I knew there was…


Addy  BestGoodbyeCover


When we got home and I saw that Captain’s truck wasn’t in the drive, I knew wouldn’t be long before it would be. I took Franny over to visit with Mrs. Baylor and explained that I would be having company later, making sure that Franny could stay until I came for her.


Mrs. Baylor had looked concerned, but then I was battling anxiety, fear, and uncertainty so fiercely that hiding it was impossible. Getting Franny safely tucked away and dealing alone until Captain showed up was best. I had to come to a decision.


Captain knew something. He was connecting the dots. It was very likely he did recognize me but hated me so badly that he had let me leave. But I knew enough about the man he’d become to now he was going to want more answers. I expected his questions sooner rather than later.


I hadn’t been back at the house for an hour before his truck pulled into the driveway. When I heard the crunch of seashells under the tires. I knew without looking that it was him. I waited at my kitchen table while he made his way to the door.


His footsteps stopped, and he waited a moment before he knocked. This was it. Time for the truth. I’d deal with the consequences and keep Franny as protected as possible.


Standing up,  I took a deep breath and tried to calm my beating heart, then took off my glasses and laid them on the table. There was no point in wearing them now. When I came here, I knew this day would come. I’d prepared for it several times over the past year. But I realized now that you could never truly prepare for something like this.


Our past wasn’t normal, yet neither was the way I loved River Kipling. He’d been my anchor in the storm until I had needed to break free to save him. And I had. Because I’d loved him that much.


As I opened the door, every memory I had of River flooded through me. Every good moment, every life-changing moment, every time he had made me feel safe. I owed it to that boy to answer to this man. I give him the truth. All of it.


PRE-ORDER NOWThe story of everyone’s favorite Bitch of Rosemary Beach.


Up In Flames

Nan Is Coming In 2016 But Do You Know About….

 


shutterstock_3566512792015 was a year that will mark my life forever. It changed my world in many ways. People walked into my life that found a place in my heart and others walked out because it was time. The ones I added, I cherish and thank God that he saw fit to give them to me. I’ve needed them each in different ways and I can’t imagine life without them now.


Looking back there are bittersweet memories that mold this past year:


I’ve lost a beloved Grandmother whose memory I will hold in my heart forever.


I released the first book in a brand new series and watched it hit the New York Times three weeks in a row. I began the journey of turning While It Lasts into a film. I visited Paris for the first time. I grew closer to my children and spent more time with them as a family. I found that even though things were thrown at me to knock me down I’m much stronger than I once believed.


Most importantly I found me again. The girl I had lost along the way. That changed everything.


 


As I look toward this new year and all I plan to do, all I plan to write, all I dream of, I think about the road that got me here and I’m thankful for those who traveled it with me and stuck by me no matter what. My children and my friends are where I find my happiness. It’s where my creativity flows. It’s where I find my blessings.


What to look for from me in 2016:



The last book in the Rosemary Beach series UP IN FLAMES
The second book in The Field Party series UNDER THE LIGHTS
A stand alone new adult romance not connected to any series THREE RULES
Dean Finlay’s novella
FINALLY two more episodes of Boys South of the Mason Dixon

Up In Flames – Cover Reveal

It’s hard for me to believe that Rosemary Beach was simply a place I visited not so long ago. Now it is a huge part of my life, not just because it’s a beautiful place, but because the stories and characters I created in the Rosemary Beach series will stay with me forever. I love them as if they are real.


It’s exciting and kind of (OK REALLY) sad for me to think about the series coming to an end, so please allow me to officially and emotionally introduce – UP IN FLAMES.  The release date for the series finale is June 14th but you can pre-order your copy today in many different countries through the retailer links below. First take a moment to go check out the amazing cover and a long Q&A with me over at USA Today’s Happy Ever After blog: USA TODAY: Cover Reveal


Now that you’re back…isn’t it gorgeous? That cover. I love it!  Here is what the book is about. In a word: NAN. In more words from Atria….


The villain of Rosemary Beach finally gets her own happy ending in the long-awaited final novel of the #1 New York Times bestselling new adult romance series by Abbi Glines.


The blockbuster #1 New York Times bestselling Rosemary Beach series ends with a bang when the troubled character readers love to hate gets her very own happily ever after in this eagerly anticipated and overwhelmingly requested story. Known for causing problems for everyone in Rosemary Beach, Nan has been growing up lately, and she’s finally taking center stage—and finding love with the man she least expected.


I hope you all love this book as much as I do. I hope I’ve made you proud with how the series ends. I hope you believe in Nan’s story and true love. Thank you for taking this Rosemary Beach ride with me.


XOXO

Because when River Joshua Kipling decided you were worth protecting, he did it with everything he had. – Addy

I want to protect you. From everything. I always have. But I don’t think I can protect you from me. I thought I could. …I can’t. I want you too bad.  – Captain


Just don’t want to wake up and find out this is all a dream. – Captain


I couldn’t help it, though. Somewhere along the way, she went from my best friend to the person I wanted to be with forever. – River


I want to know what makes you cry, because I know I can fucking fix it.  – Captain


I had thought I was saving her, but she saved me. – River
