Abbi Glines

Low broke Cage’s heart by getting with Marcus in Because of Low. Cage went into a tailspin that ended in a DUI. In order to salvage his baseball scholarship—the one thing he truly valued besides Low—Cage must take a summer job. At a farm. Away from Sea Breeze. With lots of cows, but no hot girls. Maybe that’s what Cage needs to get back on track.



But wait—there’s that hostile daughter of the farm boss. She’s pretty and occasionally sweet, and there seems to be a lot of sadness and mystery behind her anger. Cage is dying to strip her down—physically and mentally—in the back of the barn. But is he prepared for what will happen afterward?
I'm disappointed.

So far I've fallen in love with absolutely everything Abbi Glines wrote, so I have no idea why I didn't like this book.

It took me so much time to get into the story. I'd start reading it, then I'd abandon it, then I'd pick it up again and give it another try because it just didn't catch my attention and I couldn't take the time to finish it. It was awful.

I think it mostly had to do with Eva and how I couldn't relate to her. I didn't like her. I didn't like the way she was portrayed and I didn't like how she acted towards Cage - one minute wanting him and the next snapping at him because of it. I couldn't get into the story and bring myself to wish they were together.

I don't know if I read this during a bad time in my life or what, but I found the previous books so much better. I hope the fourth installment will renew my faith in this series.
