The Vincent boys by Abbi Glines - Book Review

RATE:★★★
Pages: 260
Author: Abbi Glines
Published: October 2011

I was in search for a romance easy read book and somehow I found this book and the reviews were good so I went out and got it. I can say that it lived up to my expectations and more.

A few words to decribe this book:

"An easy Sizzling hot read"

STORY- Ashton is getting tired of being good, of impressing her parents and playing ideal girlfriend to Sawyer Vincent. Sawyer is perfect, a regular Prince Charming, but when he leaves town for the summer, it’s his cousin Beau who catches Ashton’s eye. Beau is the sexiest guy she’s ever seen, and even though he’s dangerous, Ashton is drawn to him.

Beau loves his cousin like a brother, so the last thing he wants to do is make a move on Sawyer’s girl. Ashton is off-limits, absolutely. That’s why he does his best to keep his distance, even though he’s been in love with her forever. When Ashton wants to rekindle their childhood friendship in Sawyer’s absence, Beau knows he should say no.

Ashton and Beau don’t want to hurt Sawyer. But the more they try to stay away from each other, the more intense their urges become. It’s getting way too hard to resist...


Pro's - It was an easy read and right from the first pages I was hooked and I actually liked Ashton who is the girl in the middle of the boys... Another thing I enjoyed was that it wasn't just "hi,....two pages later....i love you" The relationship was gradual and interesting at the same time. In addition, the author swapped who was talking so one chapter it would be Ashton and the next it would be Beau and for me anyways, it rare to read from the guys prospective. 

Just to say it for the finale time, it is a hot, oh my goshhhh, like wow book. 

Con's - Basically, this book was a solid 4 stars in the first half, only because I wouldn't rate a book that's 200 pages a 5 star. I just think that's too short. But the beginning was great and the middle was even better but near the end I would say it kind-off became repetitive as if the author was just repeating herself again and again in different scenes and at the end without spoiling it...ok, I didn't like the way the book ended because it was just too perfect like really does that happen in real life. I wasn't buying into it. I thought the author gave up near the end even though it was only 200 pages...come on Abbi. That's about it....

Would I recommend it? Yes, it’s a good book and I enjoyed it but I would say it’s more if you are in need for an easy romance book or in that mood to read that type of books but if you are looking for a book that is a thriller or whatever then you will be disappointed.
