Review:
After reading The Vincent Boys and Fallen Too Far, I knew it was time to finally dive into The Vincent Brothers, the sequel to The Vincent Boys. I was a little worried it wouldn't be as good as The Vincent Boys. However, it ended up being just as good and even a little better to tell the truth!
The Vincent Brothers picks up six months after the last one ended, and Sawyer is still having a hard time coming-to-terms with Ashton and Beau's new relationship. However, everything changes when Ashton's cousin Lana comes back to town and with a new and improved look nonetheless. Sawyer is instantly smitten with her. She's fun and sweet and she keeps his mind of Ashton, but what happens when he falls for her? Will he make it real, or will his feelings for Ashton ruin everything? Only time and more pages can tell in this adorable and steamy addition to The Vincent Boys!
As much as I enjoyed reading about Ashton and Beau's romance, I think I enjoyed reading about Sawyer and Lana's even more. I think part of it had to do with seeing Sawyer finally get his chance at a happily ever after and the other part had to do with how much I could relate to Lana and her story. In addition, I loved finding out more about Sawyer. To tell the truth, I feel like we really didn't get to see much of him in the first book. He was always just depicted as a prince charming like guy, but in this, his good side as well as his bad side was on display, which really made him develop as a character. The addition of Lana's best friend Jewel was also a lot of fun and I loved seeing all the familiar faces from the first book.
The plot in this was also something I enjoyed. As mentioned above, I really enjoyed seeing Sawyer and Lana's relationship bloom. It was sweet as well as hot. Plus I loved how they had problems just like every other couple has....it wasn't just one happily ever kind of moment. It took a lot to build up to that point. What I enjoyed even more was seeing some of the the subplots from the The Vincent Boys developed more as well as were concluded with.
Abbi's writing was also great! She did a great job yet again switching back and forth between characters, and I just ADORED the overall ending! It was such a great way to end the story for both sets of characters. :)
In all, The Vincent Brothers is yet another great book by Abbi Glines,and while I'm sad to see it come to an end, I'm excited to check out Abbi's past books as well as her future ones.

Freaking LOVE these books! Only Abbi can make me swoon over Sawyer after making me pretty much hate him in book 1. This one was more emotional but Beau is still my fave :)
