It was a wonderful series I really enjoyed reading a book , series,that I could totally get lost in. Wonderful characters that fit so we’ll in the story. Was very hard to put down.
I loved all three of these reads and can read them over and over again. An AMAZING box set with all three reads that flow one into the other.
Next August – August is a man with more money than he knows what to do with. Nash is a nurse who is trying to pay off her student loans and sends her parents money so their mortgage doesn’t foreclose. They meet during a rock climb and August gets hurt and visits Nash in the hospital to take care of his cut. It is immediate lust and soon love between the two, but August has some secrets and he isn’t used to depending on someone else, or needing anyone else…that’s why he doesn’t do relationships, no emotions and he doesn’t have to disclose his secret then.
I loved the dialogue between the two…August loves being in control of all things but Nash is a strong woman and doesn’t let August get away with everything, she chooses her battles and wants compromise. When things get out of control and his secret is exposed it puts Nash’s life in danger and he risks losing the only woman he has ever loved.
The writing and story is fantastic and is told from both POV’s, which I love. I also fell in love with both August and Nash and I can’t wait to read more about them.
This August – I honestly don’t know where to start with this book, it was humorous, sexy, steamy, suspenseful, heartbreaking and the PERFECT continuation in August and Nash’s story. Not only did it keep me laughing and smiling so much it hurt my cheeks, it had me on the edge of my seat and tears flowing freely by the end.
Nash is the perfect woman for August, not only is she beautiful and smart, she keeps him on his toes going as far as giving him a gift named Bacon but she also brings out the best in him. August is a man who is completely devoted to Nash and will protect her at any cost which also includes her family. When a threat is made against them because of his father’s past, he does everything in his power to protect them all.
I can honestly say that because of this book Nash and August are on my top ten list of all time favorite couples all thanks to the writing skills of this author who not only knows how to write a book that makes you laugh and smile but also has you grabbing for a box tissues with all the emotions jumping at you from the pages. KUDOS to the author and I’m hoping there is more from this couple because I can’t get enough of them.
Seeing Sam – Once again tissues were needed while reading this story. We met Sam in the August series and we finally find out where he went after what happened in This August. The story continues after a few years that he has been away.
Sam has now been on his own and trying to become his own man, not relying on others, trying to find himself and then he meets Emma and he finally understands what “love at first sight” means. Emma is beautiful, kind, selfless and w/o spoiling anything she sees Sam as the man he is and them together brings out the best in each other. But Sam is hiding his condition from her, he doesn’t want to burden her and when he makes his final decision about them, he risks losing her forever.
An emotional roller coaster of a ride between these two, heartache, heartbreak, love, selfless acts and stubbornness with both of them that at times I wanted to throw my kindle away and scream but those are the emotions that this talented author evokes from me in every book that she has written, so I knew what I was getting into and I wouldn’t change it. The journey between the two was rough and at times I didn’t really like Emma because of the way she treated and shut Sam out, I was hoping for her to be there for him while he went through his tough times but I can understand why since he wasn’t there for her when she went through her own.
Even with all the above I couldn’t not give it less than 5 stars as the journey to their HEA, even with all the tissues needed, was well worth it! Now I will patiently wait for Anna’s story (hint, hint), not only to read about her but too also catch up on the rest of these amazing characters, Sam, Emma, Tennyson, Chase as well as August and Nash as I can’t help but wanting read about all of them in their futures.
