My Swoon for this week comes from:

Simple Perfection
(Rosemary Beach #6)

by
Abbi Glines 


First - The Blurb:



Woods had his perfect life mapped out for him. Rise up the ranks of the family business. Marry the rich girl of his parents’ dreams. Pretend that wealth and privilege was all he’d ever wanted. Then a girl named Della breezed into town, a beautifully imperfect stranger who captured his heart and opened his eyes to a new kind of future. Woods is ready and willing to sacrifice everything for her when the sudden death of his father leaves him with his mother to care for and a business to manage.

Della is determined to be strong for Woods, even as she’s quietly falling to pieces. No matter how far from home she’s run, the ghosts of her past have never stopped haunting her. Struggling to hide her true feelings from Woods, Della fears she can’t be his rock without dragging him down into the darkness with her. But is she strong enough to let go of the last thing holding her together?


Second - The Swoon(s):

Swoon 1
He reached over and laced his fingers through mine. "Are you sure? I'll fix whatever is wrong if you just tell me," he said, gently tugging me to him. He was a fixer. He wanted to fix my life, and that wasn't possible.

Instead of answering, I stood up on my tiptoes and pressed my lips to his neck. "I want you," I whispered against his warm skin. "Right now, all I want is you."


Swoon 2
I reached up and grabbed his face and kissed him. With everything I had, I kissed him. I didn't have the words to make any of this right. So I showed him how I felt. How much he meant to me. His arms wrapped around me and he met each stroke of my tongue with his own. We stood there tasting and indulging in each other. It was perfect. I was home.


There were so many swoon worthy moments in this book that I had trouble choosing.

Simple Perfection is a nice continuation of Woods and Della's story which started in its predecessor, Twisted Perfection.

My Rating: 4 out of 5

  5. Marilyn, you are killing me with Ms. Glines' swoons! Thanks for sharing them though. They're making me really anxious to read more of her work.

    Sorry to have been MIA for awhile. I don't know if you saw my post, but I've been out-of-town for almost the entire month taking care of my grandma. I'm back now and playing catch-up. :)
