Just found a perfect timing to go read and start the Rosemary Beach series. I've put this off for a while because I'm engrossed with The Sea Breeze series and I want to finish it before I start a new series. When I'm in the mood for some light and easy read, I choose Abbi Glines' novels. 
 Life has been difficult for Blaire Wynn as days after her mom died from a terminal illness, she doesn't have any place to stay and budget to sustain herself. She has no choice but to ask help from his father. Upon her arrival to her father's new home, she met Rush Finlay, her step-brother. It turns out Rush wasn't a fan of Blare's father and he started treating Blaire poorly. He is rich and playboy, as much as possible he stays away from Blaire because he's not a good guy for an innocent girl like her. Despite of being rude, he also has a good side. Knowingly a protective brother to his sister. Undeniably both have strong chemistry, but the family drama and lies become a hindrance on their relationship. Will he put his love life first or his deceiving family? 
 I may have read this in one sitting but I have mixed thoughts on it. I like it and I think it's a great start but it pushed all my buttons. I have a long patience when it comes to annoying characters and I also have a saturation point. I can't help cursing on most of them. Plus the annoying family drama and the overwhelming family tree. I have to pause once in a while and rub my temples to calm. It's just crazy (insert bitch face here). The conflict is still entertaining but it's not that heavy as expected. 
 Before I proceed with more rants, can I just appreciate Blaire Wynn? I really like her sweet, kind personality and as well as her independence. She's forgiving even if some people take advantage of her kindness. It sucks big time but I really like her, especially if she holds a gun and points it when someone threatened her. 
 I shall begin with my rants... Rush Finlay. Hmm... given that he hates Blaire at first because of her father, I don't like the way he treated her and he gets on my nerves. There are times he's sweet and romantic but most of the time he is a big jerk. He just tested my patience. Don't worry, I'm not completely annoyed with him. Most of my rant goes to Nan, Rush's sister. Every time there are good moments between Rush and Blaire, this annoying, immature, manipulative, spoiled bitch appears. Same goes with her bitch mother and friends. I cannot stand her. I am trying to understand her longing for a father's love but she's a brat. 
 Anyway, I hope this gets better and less annoying. I must say there are lots of interesting characters in this book. (I like Woods Kerrington by the way. I like him more than Rush Finlay)
