I absolutely adore this whole series, and this book is no different. These books are perfect if you're in the mood for a teen romance. I love everything Abbi writes. 5 star read for me!

I've read the all the previous books in this series and I didn't care for them. Guess they were too high school for me. But this one was more up my alley. I loved it!! It was everything! The way people didn't believe that the beloved would do such a thing and rape her. I loved her connection with her daughter and how Brady redeemed himself by being an individual. Once he quit being like everyone else on the gossip train and all actually talked to her and listened it clicked for me that he's gonna be an alright dude! I will definitely try the next. Thanks for the opportunity.

I truly enjoy this series. Abby Glines has a great way of making me quickly care about her characters. I recommend this book to YA or Adult Fiction readers who want a contemporary teen romance.

After the Game was the perfect ending to this fantastic trilogy. It fit right into the series and was the best story so far. I love how she connected all three stories together and truly made it feel like it was a finished complete series with no questions at the end. I would love to read more about these characters through a time jump!

This novel focuses on perfect all American boy-next-door Brady and town outcast Riley. After Riley's family returns to town to help her grandmother, who has dementia, Riley must face the town's criticisms again. When Riley and her daughter get caught in the rain, Brady, against his better judgement, stops and gives the two a ride. It is through this interaction that Brady begins to believe Riley's accusations against Gunner's brother. The two strike up a secret friendship, which turns into more. Many will reject this budding relationship, but sometimes you just have to follow your heart.

This novel will appeal to those who enjoyed the previous books in the series. I was turned off by Riley's mom's flippant treatment of her daughter's attack and the were several over-the-top dramatic plot points. However, I believe Glines lovers will move beyond the mom and totally support the soap opera feel.
