The villain of Rosemary Beach finally gets her own happy ending in the long-awaited final novel of the #1 New York Times bestselling new adult romance series by Abbi Glines.
The Rosemary Beach series ends with a bang when the troubled character readers love to hate gets her very own happily ever after in this eagerly anticipated and overwhelmingly requested story. Known for causing problems for everyone in Rosemary Beach, Nan has been growing up lately, and she’s finally taking centre stage—and finding love with the man she least expected.


I have been eagerly anticipating this book i have had it pre ordered since January but then i realised on the 26th that i probably wont get it till like 11 am because that is when our post is delivered so i brought the kindle edition as well and was going to read it at midnight but fell asleep so i woke up really early and devoured this book in a couple of hours. I like most people who have read this series has some serious qualms about this book, well Nan mostly i honestly couldn't see how Glines could write a book that would make me change my opinion on her but she did she isn't my favourite of the women but i don't hate her like i used too. 

Nan as a character wasn't much changed from the other times we have seen her, but this time we have her side of the story and how she feels when she knows shes acting like a bitch but cant help it. I am actually really happy about the way she was portrayed because it felt true to her character and it wasn't a huge change to how she has been portrayed before. There were some things she did in this book that were honestly disgusting and she knew it, but on the same hand some thing she did were downright adorable like every single scene with Nate and he wanted her to sleep in his room and she would have to eat the 'spinch' it was just so cute. 
The two men i am not going to talk about either of then because you should go in blind, we have met Major before but we honestly don't know much about him and the other guy well you will just have to read about him. I actually didn't like either of them to start with they were both in my opinion Tossers. 

Story wise it was a good story one we had a couple of hints to in The Best Goodbye, and there were things i didn't see coming and some really sad things that happen as well i cried so damn hard at that and i will never forgive Glines for that because it was just mean. :( . 
It was nice to see more of Rush and Nate because they have sort of been in the background since their books and it was nice with all the cute moments as well as the bridge building moments between Blair and Nan. I will say i was expecting a Dean mention since his book is next and also i was expecting her to talk to Kiro but neither happened, i did feel some scenes were missing but i hope they get cleared up in Deans Novella.

I honestly cannot believe this series is over i started reading it in November 2014 and to me it feels like leaving home, i mean i have re read these books more times than i can count but they make me happy and i will always love them and each time i read them i love them a little bit more.

Until Next Time
Happy Reading
