FOREVER TOO FAR by Abbi Glines
the first sneak peek!
Rush’s mouth trailed kisses down my neck as the shower spray fell from above our heads like it was raining. I wanted one of these showerheads in our house. Both of Rush’s hands slipped around my waist and covered my stomach. He had a hard time keeping his hands off my belly these days. There was no mistaking that I was pregnant now. It was as if Rush needed to stake his claim regularly. If he wasn’t so dang cute when it came to protecting me it would get on my nerves.
Before I could completely enjoy having Rush’s body covering my backside and his hands on me, the high-pitched angry scream that I knew belonged to Nan stopped both of us. Rush’s body went rigid behind me.
“Nan?” I asked already knowing the answer.
“Yeah. Guess she found out I was here already,” he replied and pressed one more kiss to my neck. “You finish your shower. I need to go deal with this. She and my father do not get along.”
I nodded and stood under the warm water as he stepped out of the shower and grabbed one of the large white fluffy towels folded up on a marble pedestal table. I wanted to go with him but he hadn’t asked. But then he wouldn’t. He was so worried about anyone upsetting me.
A man’s deep voice began yelling in response to Nan’s screams. Who was that? I had only been around Dean a little but I didn’t think the man had ever gotten emotional about anything enough to raise his voice. I turned off the water and grabbed a towel then followed Rush into the bedroom.
“Who else is here?” I asked as he jerked on a pair of jeans over his naked ass and reached for a tee shirt.
“My guess would be Kiro. Apparently they’re having their father daughter bonding here,” he replied in a frustrated tone.
Kiro. I’d only ever seen pictures of the rock god. But he was here now. In this house…
“Just stay in here. This is why we came. So I could deal with her. She’s raising hell and Kiro can’t manage her. As soon as I get her calm and under control the sooner we can go back to Rosemary.”
I nodded and forced a smile. Rush started for the door then stopped and turned back around. A crooked grin tugged at his lips and he sauntered over to me. His hands slipped into my damp hair and he cupped my face as he gazed down at me. “I just want to stay here with you,” he whispered before lowering his mouth to mine.
I grabbed both his arms and held on to him as his mouth brushed gently against mine before he took a small lick at my bottom lip. I opened my mouth so he could taste more when another shrill scream came from downstairs. Rush pulled back and sighed. “Damn crazy family,” he muttered.
“Go deal with it. I’m okay here.”
A knock at the door surprised me and I pulled the towel tightly against me. Rush stepped in front of me to block anyone’s view.
“What?” he called out.
I peeked around his back as the door slowly opened. I was mentally preparing myself for Nan to come barging into the room. Instead, a girl about my age stood at the door. She didn’t look like anyone I would imagine belonged in this house. Her long brown hair brushed her waist in soft curls and was parted to the side. She had no bangs. It was all one length. Her sultry looking hazel eyes were framed with dark lashes but she wasn’t wearing any makeup. The straight legged shorts she had on hit just at her knee and she was wearing a pale pink blouse that buttoned up the front. It was simple and classy.
“Hello, Harlow,” Rush said surprising me even further. “I’m on my way down. I hear her.”
One of the girl’s perfectly sculpted eyebrows arched. “I was hoping I could hide up here with you. You’re really going down there to deal with that?” The southern twang to her voice startled me. Who was she and why did she have a southern accent? We were in Beverly Hills.
“That’s why I’m here. To help the situation,” Rush replied.
The girl nodded and then her eyes shifted from Rush to focus on me. “You must be Blaire.”
Ohhh Abbi you’re gonna be the death of me. Cannot wait for this to come out 😀
wow CAN’T WAIT
Thanks! looks awesome!!!! so excited!
OMG Hurry up August. I can’t wait to read this.
ooh I need more. like now.
OMG .. I can’t wait!! xoxoxo I love RUSH!!
Wow! my heart is already speeding up from this! I’m not sure if I’m going to make it to the release I’m so excited!
I. Need. More. Ahhhhh!!! Love this! 🙂
ZOMAHGAH! I need this book right now! Thanks, Abbi!
Oh my gosh. Can’t wait. Did anyone think that maybe Harlow is a potential girl for Grant? Anything is better than Nan! 🙂 Thanks for the sneak peek Abbi.
Wouldn’t that be just great! If she is trying to escape Nan then I am assuming she will be for Grant!
I tried to wrap my head around Nan for Grant…but I just can’t do it. I think Twisted Perfection nix that coupling but you never know so I hope this Harlow is the real deal. Love that name. She is destined to be someone’s heroine! 🙂
I totally agree wit you. I can’t see how Nan after years of getting her way could be good for Grant. He is just a good person but let’s hope Harlow is our new leading lady!!
And from this peek she still seems like same ole’ Nan. Hope she finds love one day just not with Grant! 🙂 Fingers crossed. Harlow sounds intriguing.
i read twisted perfection already and nan and grant do have a relationship …. but she ends up breaking his heart ..
My thoughts exactly. I expect her to be Nan’s half sister – but I think with all of us anti-Nan girls that Abbi might either make us crazy with a triangle or try to get us to sway on hating her. I don’t think she can be redeemed.
YAY! Can’t wait!!!
OMG, OMG, OMG!! I think I just peed my pants!!!
Seriously Abbi! You can’t just leave us hanging like this! 🙂 Rush Crush!!!!
OMG OMG OMG! I have a strange feeling Harlow is going to be Grant’s girl!
Cant wait to read the full story but wow it amazing!
You’ve dangled the ‘rush’ carrot and now i want more!!! Cant wait 🙂 xx
SQUEEEEE!!!!!!!
I need to know who this Harlow is a threat to Rush and Blaire? I am so protective of them
From what I read from other teasers my guess is she is Kiro’s other daughter.

oh holy hell… I’ve drooled all over my keyboard…. Can’t wait… what’s the release date?
LMBO!
I am pretty sure it’s going to be August 2013.
Scratch that! Just saw June 10, 2013! Oh Snap!!!
OMG! Love rush and blaire noone trumps them,i can read about them forever pls dont end there story. I knw u stated this would b there last book but everyone is so invested in them,pls more rush and blaire. MY FAVORITE SERIES
Who is Harlow?? Maybe Kiro’s daughter??
Yay, can’t wait.
Oh geez. You’re gonna kill me Abbi. So excited to read this when it’s perfection. Huge pat on the back. Looking forward to reading more. Great names too! 🙂
Loved it I really don’t wont wait that long 🙁 but it’ll be great can’t wait…
Oh my goodness! new characters! I am so hoping this means more parts to the series! I just read Ing Cruz comment, mmmmm Maybe Grant might get a book or 2 of his own just like Woods!
hurry up already grr
OMG I need you to Rush, no pun intended and holy Harlow, who is she, she better keep away from my Rush
am I the only one pro nan and grant? I feel that as nasty as she acted in the first two books, she can be redeemed and I believe Grant is just the person best suited for Helping her.
Don’t hate Nan… Hate Georgina for making her that way. P.s. glad the story with nan, Abe and Kiro is coming into play :)…. Sounds interesting
I totally agree with you! I really think that Grant will help Nan get oover her demons. And i think it would be a grat read if there was a little drama between Rush, Nan and Grant since I’m sure that Rush wouldn’t approve for a possible relationship between Grant and Nan!
HURRY!!! ….no don’t hurry….but HURRY!!!!!
ahhh SO excited!!!
you’re are such a tease abbi. release this soon pls. w/ a sneak peek like that i can’t hardly wait
Ahh omg can’t wait!!
I will send you all the Crunchie bars that Canada has if you write more!
Cant wait. That put me on my toes. Waiting is the hardest part in life. Especially when its for something great.
AHHHHHH!!!!! THE ANTICIPATION IT’S KILLING ME!!!!! I CAN’T WAIT!!!!! I LOVE RUSH AND BLAIRE!!!!
Sounds awesome cannot wait!
I can’t wait!
Oh Abbi! You are such a tease…I hope this releases sooner rather than later…
I think Harlow is Rush’s sister (Dean’s daughter). And I hope Grant can find a good girl. I love this series.
omg I can’t wait!!! this was awesome..but is it time yet???
argh. nervous tingles settled over my body. there should only be one girl with a southern accent in his life- Blaire. grr.

I Cnt wait for this to be released I got Fallen and Never too far and I love them wat’s the release date?
My heart skipped a beat when I saw that you put up the first sneak peek I am super excited! You really have left us with a cliff hanger here abbi…….. All of us are now wondering who Harlow is? Always teasing!
oh my gossh ! I am so pumped for this book. I just can’t get enough of Rush and Blaire. <3
Oh how exciting!!!! Can’t wait!!! Love this series!!!!
Abbi,Abbi,Abbi….. you cant do this to us.. lol … i want More!!
You are amazing Abbi!! This is a great sneak peak that made me so happy!! I think I speak for a lot of people when I say that Forever Too Far is going to be the most anticipated book of the fall this year!! <3rush&blaire<3
HOLY HELLO! I don’t know if I can wait til August or not, I sure hope it is the first part of the month. Abbi you just love leaving us hanging on the edge of our seats now don’t you. I have already read Twisted Perfection twice since it was released and I have to admit I am addicted to Woods, but as I read this Rush is starting to flow in my system again, and now I see on your webpage Grant will have a book, LOVE IT! Please keep this series going as long as possible I am so into these characters you draw me into the book as if I was the one in the story.
damn,,, i have such a love hate relationship with teasers……
Oh gracious me! How are we ever going to survive the wait!
please tell me Harlow wont be an obstacle between B & R? Let this be Grant’s girl.
I can’t wait, August is way to far away!
oohhh!!! drooling here , can’t wait for this book to come out
Oh. My. God. I loved this! I can’t wait for the book!!
AUGUST?!?!?!?
No, June 10!
As much as i hate nan, i still believe that she can change, but Grant it’s not the guy for her, i hope this girl can be good for him, because if she try to get in between B&R, i will go lady to ghetto en 2.5 sec, as for Nan i think she maybe need’s a second chance someone who does not put up with her crap, someone who make’s her work, but encorages her to be a better person to be good for herself and be worth of someone who loves her for being her not the crazy ass sister of rush finlay …
you’re so mean, I’m in tears right now. this book is coming in 3 months thats not fair!! i love this series and i don’t want to wait until august!! :'(((
*Squeeeee* can’t wait!!
I say Grant with Harlow and Cain with Nan lol
Need to wipe the keyboard been drooling !!! gotta wait now for release date… when is it pleaseeeeeeeeeeeee
AHHHH, so excited. Love it, can’t wait.
mmmm….. but twisted perfection kinda left you with assumption all is well in the blaire/rush saga maybe they shouldn’t have mentioned Blaire in it.
when s this out please I cant wait,
Oh God….I can’t believe!!! It’s just freaking heaven!!! More Blaire and Rush…can’t wait! I’d got so addicted that I had already read all of your books Abbi….all of them are gorgeous, but Blaire and Rush are my loving ones!!!!! Counting days….
Oh i want more…… i am now on count down….. when is the release date
Please please please tel me ur going to release it early!!??
i cant wait anymore….. please….release the book3 soon…
OMG!!!!!!! I need to know the release date for this book ASAP!!!!!! This series is just tooooo amazing for me to be over it! LOVE your books Abbi! <3
I can’t wait for this book and Simple Perfection to come out. Does anyone know what the name of Grant’s book is going to be? Also, I think that we need a book with Bethy’s and Jace’s story. The series wouldn’t be complete without one. Is there any inclination that Abbi may write one? I love Bethy and I think her story should be told, especially after the hard time she had with getting with Jace in Fallen Too Far! Fingers crossed!!!!
I so want book for Nan! I just need books about Grant and Nan! 🙂 I don’t know about Bethy/Jace, they are in love, and in Forever Too Far we may know what will happen with them. So, there is no need to have separated book, though I’d like to read it.
I’m confused about Grant’s relation to Rush and Nan. Don’t Grant, Rush and Nan have the same mom?
I’m already hooked!
going insane!!!
I hope Grant and Nan end up together. I still have hope that Grant could even out Nan. I also think that Abbi Glines is a great enough writer to be able to turn public opinion about Nan to a more positive one. Also, think of the drama: Rush finding out about Nan and Grant, Grant never getting over the girl that once broke his heart!
It would also be great for Jace and Bethy to have their own story, even if it’s a novella 🙂
Omg can’t wait!
When is the exact release date? This site indicates August 2013 but goodread says today is the release date?
love you Abbi Glines!! Almost done with book 3 ☺♥
