Just for now (Sea Breeze series #4) By Abbi Glines



Set in the steamy coastal Alabama town of Sea Breeze, an interconnected group of older teens hook up, break up . . . and much, much more. 
Preston is one bad boy. And Amanda has harboured 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. Yet the dangerous attraction is there ... and neither Preston nor Amanda are going to deny it.


God damn, Abbi did it again. This book is another hot read in the Sea Breeze series. 

Amanda, Marcus' little sister seduces Preston one night into taking her virginity when he's drunk. It's all she's ever wanted, all she's daydreamed about, but when it happens, it's not everything she thought it would be. For one thing he finishes, gets up and goes without looking backwards. He doesn't remember it happened the next day, he thinks it was all a dream. 

After that dreadful night Amanda is determined to put distance between her and Preston, but then she finds herself always been in his presence and for once, it's not her doing the chasing. 
After Preston gets called out to get his sick sister, Amanda and he only grow closer, and she see's a different side to Preston. 
Everyone sees this male whore, who doesn't care about anything but the junk in his trousers, but it's not entirely true, in fact, it's so far from it you don't even realize. Everything he has been doing, every secret he has kept and every person he pushed away was all so he could support his brothers and sisters, who live with their deadbeat mom and still keep a roof over his head and go to school. 
I felt so sorry for him. It was horrible to think of the life he led, but how incredible of him to go to such lengths to care for them.
Its another expiring read, truly showing you the meaning of the lengths you will to for family. 
I was surprised as most people to learn how Preston made his money. When I read the reviews, I was like yeah, whatever, but reading it for myself shocked me. 
It was so devastating when Preston's mom dies, not because she died, but because he finally got what he wanted, custody of his siblings. 
He starts to find it harder than he realized, and knew he had to choose between his siblings and keeping Amanda, the decision killing him from the inside. I was in freaking tears. 
But having the friends he does, they stepped in to support him and in the end it gave his best friends, rock and Trisha, a chance to be a family, knowing they could give them more than what he could. It was heart warming. 
It also brought in Low and Marcus wedding which was brilliant. I was still rooting for Amanda and Preston and was so happy when they got their happy ending :)
