Just for Now (Sea Breeze #4) by Abbi Glines

An insatiable attraction heats to the boiling point in this steamy book set in the shore town of Sea Breeze from the author of the white-hot The Vincent Boys.

Preston is one bad boy. And Amanda has harbored a crush on him for forever. When she finally makes her move on him, it does not end well. But still, she can’t resist him. Especially now that he seems to be pursuing her, too.

No one wants wants them to be together. Not Amanda’s brother Marcus, who is on the verge of his marriage to Low, and definitely not any of Preston’s buddies. They know way too much about Preston’s dark side. Even Preston realizes he’s not good enough for someone like her.

But Amanda believes there is more to Preston than his bad boy persona, and she is determined to unearth what he’s hiding behind his seductive blue eyes—secrets that could explain his actions. Secrets Amanda might not be able to forgive.


Yet the dangerous attraction persists...and neither Preston nor Amanda is going to deny it.

Overall rating: 4.5 Rockin' ★★★★☆

Preston has been the playboy (yep, another one!) in the background of all the other Sea Breeze books.  He plays baseball with Cage and he is Marcus’ best friend.

Amanda is Marcus’ little sister who has had a crush on Preston for years.  Now she is old enough to act on her feelings.

“Sometimes the answer we need is in our heart.  We just have to listen to it.”

This book is filled with family secrets, secret love, and just plain ole secrets.  Preston has a whole separate life that nobody knows about.  Not even his closest friends.  Getting involved with Amanda could threaten to expose everything he had worked so hard to keep secret, but can he resist he?  He also knows that Marcus would never allow it to happen.

“But when we find that one person who completes us, we don’t give up.  No matter how bad we screwed up.  We make it right.”

As Preston and Amanda get closer to each other, it becomes harder for them to hide their feelings from their friends and harder for Preston to hide his other life from Amanda.  When it all comes out, can they get past it all?  I felt like I was a fly on the wall of their secret love story.

“I love you with a scary, insane, wild, amazing love.  I always will.  No one else could ever make me feel this way.”

“I love you.  I love you so d@mn much it consumes me.  I don’t deserve you, but I’m gonna become the man who does deserve you.  I promise you.  I’ll make you proud of me.”
