This was my first experience with an audiobook where I couldn't stop. The story is very angsty and well written. The narrator does a fantastic job and I found a hint of southern twang endearing... I LOLed so hard whenever she would narrate Rush saying "Sweet Blair" and long curse word "F-----uck" in a deep voice.

Already got the next book as an audible... Can't get enough of the angsty angst and the blooming love between Blair and the always shirtless tattoo-covered rock-legend spawn Rush Finley ...more

To want what you’re not supposed to have…

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.

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........

“Because I’ve had a taste and I’m not sharing. This isn’t just for fun. I may be slightly addicted.”

The first paragraph hooked me! I mean she just pulled a dang on gun out on Rush's brother...hahah hillarious!
Blaire 19 just lost her mother, the house she grew up in had to be sold to pay medical bills and the only option was to move in with her estranged dad and his new wife. She arrives in Rosemary in the midst of a party and guess what? Daddy dear is not even there to great her, he is in Paris with his new wife! She meets Rush, the beautiful son of her dad's new wife.
My first impression was arrogant ahole! Rush has a change of heart after kicking her out, and has her sleeping under the stairs in the housekeepers quarters. Fast forward a bit, I liked Blaire in the beginning a lot but once she started circling around Rush and even though he was so disrespectful having sex with a different female daily, on top of doing it in the front of Blaire and she still chased him like a puppy, I lost some of that respect for her...
Yes, she is 19, she is naive however didn't make excuses since she has seen him with all these different females.
Then he doesn't protect her from his sister's Nan's wrath, and that just made me dislike Rush that much more.

Daddy and his new wife arrive back, and this huge secret is revealed that reveals Blaire's whole life is a big fat lie. Rush's and Blaire's life are far more entangled then she would have thought.. She packs up and leaves, and that's when poor old Rush realizes he is in love.
Well boo-hoo you broke heart, lied to her, and you just don't deserve her!

“Everyone always says that love was enough. It wasn't. Not when your soul has been shattered.” ...more

Shelves: bad-boys

When I started reading this book I felt like I was about to go bungee jumping
I was like: c'mon guys! let's go

I was that thrilled...
You know the story- good girl meets bad boy kind of thing

I was feeling like I was once again watching the old good Gossip Girl, though I would point out the gender differences- I don't think Dan Humprey would fit the image of a pretty blond girl ;D

oh right, enough is enough, now how about the characters?

Blaire definetely was an outsider in the uppity society, though ...more
