This story continued to explore the relationship between the protagonists without devolving into e always-predictable sexual one. Enjoyable if somewhat predictable.  Waiting for the next installment in the story of Elise and David.

Here we are again with book two in the Seasons of Love series. We pick up with our couple attempting to continue moving their budding relationship forward. Long distance relationships are not easy, good thing Sam isn't hurting for money as a flights/hotels every other week to New York from Chicago has got to be spendy. But he is a determined man willing to make the sacrifice, or is he? Book two, Winter Hopes puts us on Sam and Lydia's home turf and we get to know them a bit better. Better than we did during a weekend getaway at a beautiful and romantic hotel filled with love and spirits. We see a side of Sam that I was actually a bit shocked initially to see, but then I ultimately "got it" and Lydia begins to doubt her decisions and worries for her son. Not to mention becoming serious about a new guy will eventually lead to the need to introduce him to her ex.

Speaking of ex's, that is probably the only part of the series (I've read 3 of the 4 books) that irritates me a bit. I know it's an age old story of broken hearts and negativity, but why is the father ALWAYS questioned in his parenting skills? Why can't they just have fallen out of love and be civil to each other with no question as to who is the better parent. Yes, this "irritation" comes from being in a situation where the ex was so vindictive that the relationship between father/daughter is nonexistent, so it hits a cord and bugs me.

However, as I mentioned, I realize that the above is merely a plot point to aid in bringing friction into the new relationship, so I can forgive and it did not take away from the story for me. It merely added to the realism of the characters, because, while unfortunate, the situation is real more often than not. Anyway, Sam gets to meet Andy, Lydia's son, who has a delayed speech which makes it difficult for him to communicate thus causing the occasional outburst, specifically with his peers at preschool who don't understand what the problem is and poor Andy gets frustrated. With that explanation, we can understand why Lydia is even more protective of her son and didn't want Sam to meet him until she knew they were getting serious.

Needless to say, there is conflict that arises and, of course, some get resolved and some continue into book three where yet more strife will be revealed as our new lovers learn more about each other and themselves, as well.

Winter Hopes is definitely a book to add to your reading list, but you must first read Autumn Getaway

This is a well crafted story of two people who love one another.  It looks at their relationship and why it works while those of others around them fail.

I really liked forever too far. It was nice to see them together again in an ongoing relationship, one that drama wouldn't interfere with. I also liked meeting the new characters and the cross over with twisted perfection. For Abbi to take this story further than she had originally intended, was well worth it for me as a reader. It was a nice rounded out ending with a promise in the new characters.

A great (for now) ending to their latest fight.  These two say they respect each other but you'd never tell it.  They sure seem to hate each other with a few others drawn in to their fight.  Lots of twist and turns on this end.

A thoroughly enjoyable--hot series.  Julia and Clay have sure had their problems.  Love continues to grow despite bad people who use, abuse and threaten.  All the problems are small compared to the need for truth and trust.  Each have had trying relationships  and are protective of their hearts.  The chemistry is beyond hot and their sex is NOT their problem.  They have lots of hot, mildly kinky, mutually satisfying encounters.  The question is it enough without trust and truth.  Separating doesn't seem to work for them so working out their differences is an engaging journey for us all.  In this third book Clay and Julia go to Los Vegas for a special weekend.  It is special, however certainly not what they had planned.  Their love and commitment and safety are tested. The conclusion...well read it and find out.

I love how they balance each other. He accepts her just like she accepts him. They don't want to change each other. Their faults are what make them love each other more.
