Review: The Vincent Boys by Abbi Glines


  The Vincent Boys
By: Abbi Glines


Synopsis From Goodreads:
Ashton is getting tired of being good, of impressing her parents and playing ideal girlfriend to Sawyer Vincent. Sawyer is perfect, a regular Prince Charming, but when he leaves town for the summer, it’s his cousin Beau who catches Ashton’s eye. Beau is the sexiest guy she’s ever seen, and even though he’s dangerous, Ashton is drawn to him.

Beau loves his cousin like a brother, so the last thing he wants to do is make a move on Sawyer’s girl. Ashton is off-limits, absolutely. That’s why he does his best to keep his distance, even though he’s been in love with her forever. When Ashton wants to rekindle their childhood friendship in Sawyer’s absence, Beau knows he should say no.

Ashton and Beau don’t want to hurt Sawyer. But the more they try to stay away from each other, the more intense their urges become. It’s getting way too hard to resist....

My Review:
Rating:
★★★

Like many of my recent reviews, this book has been sitting on my TBR pile for years. I purchased this book years back in a big Book Outlet order, then it was shoved to the bottom of shelf and forgotten. After a much needed purge of my bookshelves I rediscovered The Vincent Boys.

Ashton, the preachers daughter has been best friends with the Vincent boys ever since they were kids. She and Beau were thick as thieves, always causing trouble only to be bailed out by Sawyer. However, as they grew up the three amigos fell apart. Sawyer and Ashton began a relationship that drove a wedge between Beau and Ashton. Their friendship forgotten. But this summer Ashton is without Sawyer and she finds herself drawn back into the arms of her once best friend. 

Beau is the rebel bad boy with quite the reputation, but as Ashton spends time with him she finds he is not as bad as everyone may think. She discovers she can be herself around him, no longer parading around as the perfect daughter or town good girl. She can finally release her inner rebel. 

The Vincent Boys is your typical YA romance. A girl stuck between the "good" guy and the "bad" boy. 

While the book wasn't bad, it was n't a series I can see myself continuing. It was predictable and resembled every other romance novel out there. The story overall was decent but it wasn't anything to right home about.
