About this ebook

#1 New York Times bestselling author Abbi Glines returns to Rosemary Beach one last time in this highly anticipated finale.

Spoiled. Selfish. Rich girl. Villain. Slut.

As the Prada-clad bad girl of Rosemary Beach, Nan Dillon has been called every vile name under the hot summer sun. Some of her reputation is deserved—she’s never had to worry about anything but maintaining her perfect figure and splitting Daddy’s private jet with her brother, Rush.

But Nan is far from happy. Rush has another kid on the way and doesn’t have time to catch up with his sister. Grant, the last guy she truly cared about, chose to be with her half-sister, Harlow, instead of her. And Harlow, who has never gotten over the way Nan treated her when she first moved to town, remains distant.

So when Major asks her out, she jumps at the chance to date the gorgeous charmer. Though she doesn’t know much about the sweet-talking Texan, and though it’s clear he doesn’t want to be exclusive, dating him beats hanging out with vapid socialites or watching Netflix alone at home.

For a while, Nan deals with Major’s playboy ways, but after he burns her one too many times, she takes off for an impromptu wild weekend in Vegas. There, she meets Gannon, a darkly seductive and oh-so-dangerous businessman who knows exactly how to handle her.

With Major asking for a second chance and Gannon haunting her dreams, Nan has to decide who to give her heart to. But what she doesn’t realize is that these players are involved in a much bigger game—and they’re already two moves ahead of her.

Ratings and reviews

While I enjoyed "Up in Flames," I think it would have been better to start with the earlier books in the series to fully appreciate the references and character development. The romance was sweet, but the overall plot felt a bit predictable

This book was absolutely fantastic. it had me on the edge of my seat until the very end. I've always thought that there must have been a reason for Nan to be so hard, and I'm glad we finally got her backstory. She's not a bad person, but she's just been through so much. I was laughing, crying, and rooting for her every step of the way. I feel like this was the perfect ending to a series that has been dear to my heart for years. Another terrific story from Abbi Glines!

Your books have helped through a devistating life changing illness, the ending of a 10 year relationship, and loss of stepchildren....You will never know the impact these characters along with the Vincent boys and your other characters have had on me.
