No. “Whisked” isn’t the right word.
“Torn.” Yes. “Torn” is a much better choice…because that’s what has happened to her heart the longer she’s away from Sebastian.

Shark’s Rise picks up with Bas and Abbi’s story right where Shark’s Pride left off. Sebastian and Abbi still have no idea who is out to destroy them. Surprises keep occurring that threaten Sebastian’s tightly held control and Abbi’s will to show her independence. Will Bas and Abbi be able to rise again?
These ladies know how to write a book that will pull you in from page one and keep you reading until the very end. What a ride for my emotions. I love Sebastian and Abbigail and getting to know Grant and Elijah better with each installment of this series. I can’t wait for Grant’s Heat!
I loved following Bas and Abbi. Just when you think you have it all, you fall even more in love with them.
I have really enjoyed the journey of Bas and Abbi and all the obstacles they have had to over come. That being said for this being their last book there are some story lines that never got explained or had a conclusion to. All in all a good trilogy.
Shark’s Pride is book three in the Sebastian and Abbigail series but not the end of the story! Again it left me wanting more of these characters and I can’t wait to see what comes next. Their story is epic and a must read!
Seriously need more of Sebastian and Abbi’s growing story. Love this series and really hope Angel and Victoria continues to expand the Shark line Definitely a must read series for sure.
I love this series! These ladies continue to keep me at the edge of my seat. Victoria and Angel, ya rocking it!!! This series has a little of everything; suspense, strong characters (alpha, sweet, funny and sassy) and some steamy scenes. I can’t wait to see what Grant brings to this awesome series! Thanks, Victoria and Angel
Loved the series, Shark’s Rise is as good as the first 2 book. The story of Sebastian and Abbie is intense, funny, loving, sexy, very hot. Love Victoria Blue and Angel Payne, they are some talented Authors. Thank you ladies for writing this amazing story. Cant wait for Grant’s Story.
Shark’s Rise is quintessential Angel Payne and Victoria Blue turning a book or Series into the most amazingly epic love stories that you can feel to your toes when reading each book. The passion of Sebastian and Abbigail is palpable.
As Sebastian tries to figure out who is causing problems for him and Abbigail their lives take an unexpected turn. One that will affect them both forever.
Nooooooo!!
I have so many questions
I have needs!!
I needs to know!
So this doesn’t really end on a cliff hanger but Bas and Abbi’s story is far from over
Actually, their journey is just beginning
Someone is still trying to topple the mighty Shark
I am going to have to admit some of my suspects are no longer viable
Things are getting a bit more chaotic while at the same time it seems like the pieces are slowly falling into place
Though as soon one problem was solved it seemed a new one popped up
I couldn’t turn away
Bas is still learning how to swim in uncharted waters – He is currently treading water, keeping his head up – though occasionally he gets sucked under – never fear he’s resilient and pops back to the surface before drowning in his own misactions (?)
New game plan it is
Abbie is… well Abbie – I love her but she is still driving me crazy. I do give her credit where it’s due though she has stood by her man through all this. Not once has she flip-flopped with her feelings for him. I admire that.
Now if she can step back and just breath for a bit.
Prioritize!
Trust that her loved ones can take the reins and run things without her
Rio is a bit more of a player on the board – some of her skeletons manage to escape the closet in this episode -leading me to question events and wishing I knew more about her past cause holy snikeys! does she have skeletons
Grant – still love him – though I think he is digging his own grave – I’m pretty sure that’s a different story
Elijah – wow I owe you an apology
Hang on tight it looks like our little crew is about to hit very turbulent waters
Sebastian is all alpha with controlling issues, but that’s what it takes in order to be as successful as he is in business. Fighting with his demons he realizes some things will have to change in his life concerning Abbi.
Death has claimed another victim putting Sebastian’s reputation on the line. Still unanswered questions as to whom which I assume will come to light in future books.
With Abbi being sent away for her own protection, her health starts to diminish.
With a new man and Dori in the house things will be changing.
I loved Sebastian and Abbi’s love story!!
Mystery, suspense, murder and sizzling scenes.
Can’t wait for Grant’s Heat, Shark’s #4!!
Untested Waters….
Protecting Abbigail was Sebastian’s top mission. Abbigail was not on board with the extensive measures that Sebastian put into effect to make that happen. Abbigail was not a woman that could sit still and behave. The seclusion from her friends and family took a toll on her emotionally and also physically. Being away from Sebastian left her feeling empty and alone with her thoughts. Not a good thing.
New developments enter into their lives that make everything more complicated than they already were. Sebastian is at a cross roads of feeling emotions he has never felt before. He knows he needs to step up and make changes in himself in order to keep the most precious treasure of all, his Abbigail. This story had my own emotions on the edge hoping that the two of them could work this out so they could finally be at ease with each other after the tumultuous journey they had in getting there.
Shark’s Rise by Angel Payne & Victoria Blue is book Three in the Shark’s Edge Series. This continues the story of Abbigail ‘Abbi’ Gibson and Sebastian Shark, so you really need to read the previous books ‘Shark’s Edge’ and ‘Shark’s Pride’ first to fully enjoy this book. Besides this has been a great series. Although this rounds out Abbi and Sebastian’s story it does leave us with question that will lead us to the next installment in this series along with another romance.
This is a hot page turning exciting series. Can’t wait for more.
Remarkable book! Couldn’t put it down! Had to find out what happened! Loved this book!
I cannot deal with this series!! I am completely hooked and pretty much drooling at the mouth for more. I am in love with Abbi and Bas, their story is crazy, sweet, and full of drama. This book shocked me in all the best ways.. Now I will sit here impatiently, waiting for the story to continue because I NEED answers. And seriously that last chapter had me in pure tears. This has easily become one of my favorite series! Cannot wait for next year so I can find out what happens next! Thank you Angel and Victoria for this series, you ladies have outdone yourselves!!
I love Sebastian Shark. His and Abbies love is so amazing. Their intensity as a couple is overwhelming. I have so many questions that I am dying for answers for. I can’t wait to see what happens next for this couple and both of their companies.
I NEED MORE!! I am so in love with Sebastian and Abbigail and how their story is evolving! I cannot wait to read more!
More dominating, possesive and controlling alpha deliciousness from Sebastian Shark. More sass, smartness, sweetness and all encompassing love from Abbi. More sparkling, sizzling and swoonworthy chemistry in background of suspense. Shark’s Rise by Angel Payne and Victoria Blue ends a great series with a bang.
The life-threatening danger is still looming over Sebastian and Abbi’s life. And Abbi was sent to a safe place on Sebastian’s order. But it put a major stress on their relationship as Abbi is no kept woman. The loneliness, the isolation, the uncertainty and above all the pain of staying away from Bas is killing Abbi. Will they come back together stronger? Will the new development in their life make Bas finally realize that he needs to change for love?
The more I read about Bas, the more I feel we all should have a man like him. He is infuriating, stubborn and wants to control everything. But his love, devotion and loyalty to Abbi is unquestionable. The authors beautifully brought out the depth and intensity of his feelings. I love his arrogant and bossy side. I love his vulnerable and enamoured side even more. And it takes a special woman like Abbi to bring a special man to knees. She is amazing. She is soft and loving. At the same time she is ready to fight for herself and their love. This story has lots of heartbreak and misunderstandings. But it all worked out perfectly. The only thing I missed in this instalment is the lack of solid suspense. The threats on Bas were not neutralized. And we still do not know who is trying to bring him down. The pieces are there. I hope we will get answers in next books.
The chemistry between Bas and Abbi is the asset of Shark’s Rise by Angel Payne and Victoria Blue. This was something unforgettable, mesmerizing and spellbinding. A great series with exceptional writing.
Received ARC for Honest review
This whole series was absolutely amazing!! Once I started on book one Shark’s Edge I couldn’t put them down!! They had your attention and kept you wanting to know what was going to happen next!! Sebastian and Abbigail were put though a lot!! They held strong and worked together!! You were with on a emotional journey of feels!! They broke each other’s walls down and deserved the happiness they found!! I highly recommend this book/series! These two amazing authors won’t let you down!!
OMG -I thought the first two books in the series were fabulous – but this the last in the series was even better. Sebastian faces so many inner demons and finally realizes that his love for Abbi is the best decision he has ever made, but can all of the questions be answered? Can the man who was married to his job actually change priorities? With so many twists and turns and dialogue that will make you break down and cry this was another masterpiece from Angel Payne and Victoria Blue. This will be a series i will re-read again and again.
