While it Lasts

“She deserved a man who could take care of her. But fuck if I was just going to leave her. I couldn't do that. I may not be good enough for her but I was gonna damn well try my hardest to become worthy.”
― Abbi Glines, While It Lasts

WARNING and SPECIAL PRECAUTIONS:

frequent display of some uber sexy, shirtless body of Cage York.
a very brave, witty but can sometimes be naughty girl named Eva.
over the edge turns at the barn
super hot, steamy, passionate scenes at the lake
some hilarious dialogues that will give you the chills, put you to tears, and fix a smile on your face.

Think you can handle that all at the same time? Then brace yourself for the latest craze to book addiction. A story of two broken souls who found love unexpectedly in an unexpected place. Total opposites, the ultimate bad boy of Sea Breeze Series and the very preserved Eva, put them together and you've got one of the most best reads for summer.

We have been introduced to Cage in Because of Low (Sea Breeze Series #2) as the "chick boy" who gets A+ for screwing women. He was so bad, he makes me want to wish he was real! (I love Abbi Glines bad boys) But there was something about him that let's you know there is more to this guy than just pretty face, hot body and undeniable sexual skills. He grew up in a house with a battered mom and a reckless dad who left them both at the end. Growing up, he considers Low as his only family as she was the only person who never left his side despite of everything that he's been through. Due to his some irresponsible actions, Cage ended up with a DUI and was sent by his baseball coach to the farm to bail hay and chase cows...this was exactly how he sees it. Little did he know that his so called "punishment" will turn out to be one God's heaven sent.

Eva is the daughter of the farm's owner. She's not your typical girl to start with. It's been nearly two years since one of the tragic moments of her life happened, and she hasn't moved on...well, more of her personal choice (enough with the spoilers). But there's something about Cage's charm that apparently allowed her to be attracted to him.

Cage and Eva's love story was a perfect match. Abbi's choice to write it from each other's point of view is absolutely the only way to go. It was simple but allows just enough drama to compliment with the sweetness and roughness both the characters had brought to the table. I loved how her innocence tamed the bad boy in him, almost that he begins to trust his heart and genuinely cares for someone apart from Low, for the very first time. Just as how Eva started to go out of her comfort zone and see the good things in life again and it only took someone as irresistible as Cage to make it happen.

Overall, I would say that this is by far, my most favorite Abbi Glines book. She knows her readers well that she always creates characters and stories with just enough sexual tensions but with lots of hearts and depth, too. So if you're a fan of great love story, hot guys, kick ass girls and sucker for a happy ending, then this book is definitely a hard one to miss!
