Confessions of a Bookaholic's Reviews > Rushing In

The Bailey brothers just keep getting better and better!!!!!

Gavin and Skylar are just the sweetest couple ever, starting with how they meet. He is outspoken and carefree while she is quiet and more reserved. He knows he shouldn't want her the way he does simply out of respect for her father yet he just cannot help himself and she doesn't make it easy on him when it comes to resisting her. To him she is the forbidden cookie!!!!

Up until this point we have been shown Gavin's care free side (which is what he mostly is) but I absolutely loved getting to know him on a deeper level and seeing what really makes him tick. We know he is basically fearless from the previous books and learning more about where that comes from and how deep it is rooted explains so much about him. Skylar on the other hand has gone through life a quiet girl and has used her writing as an escape/coping mechanism to conquer her fears that she harbors. Gavin finds ways to break Skylar out of her shell and "live on the edge" more so than she is used to. One incident changes things in a heartbeat for Gavin and it was just the wakeup call he needed.

Claire has given us another story of love but what I really loved about this one was the little mini stories going on throughout this one. We find out more about the Bailey parents and get to witness Skylar's parents (Chief and Caroline) rebuilding their relationship. Then there is still the mystery surrounding Eliza Bailey and John Haven. The Bailey prank pulled in this one is so epic yet I cannot wait to see how the Haven's respond back. Of course there are some more shenanigans from the squirrels because it wouldn't be Tilikum if there wasn't.
