Book Review – Fallen Too Far by Abbi Glines

December 17, 2012 By Maryse 103 Comments

Fallen Too Far: A Rosemary Beach Novel (The Rosemary Beach Series Book 1)
<— I read this one tonight. Straight through. Devoured it. Easy. But now… not so easy. In fact, I just walked into my husband’s “office” and stood behind him. In my Cookie Monster pajamas. Watching. Slouching. Moping. Needing attention. After a few minutes of big heaving sighs he finally turned around (possibly a little creeped out) and said…

Husband: Is something wrong?

Me: No.

Husband: What’s with the face? read more

jessicapark — Jessica Park with her fabulous book!!

WINNER ANNOUNCEMENT!! Jayme, Elizabeth and Jennifer have responded to their email notifications and have will each be receiving a gift.

Today’s 16th Day of Christmas giveaway is one of my favorite books that played a big part in my love for “New Adult” contemporary romance. Last year I picked up Jessica Park’s delightfully witty, sweet and romantic novel (Flat-Out Love) and I was hooked. Lighthearted but deep, plus that thrill of pining for a certain someone… and this book had quite the finale! I gasped! It sucked me in one afternoon, and I didn’t put it down until I was done (check out my review). And then I went on a massive search for more like it, and I haven’t stopped yet. I LOVE books like this!!! read more

23 BOOKS ON TODAY'S LIST ---> Monday Early Bird Book Releases – 10-19-2026: www.maryse.net/book-releases/monday-early-bird-book-releases-10-19-2026.html

Congratulations on publishing your book! Your book deserves to reach the right readers, spark curiosity, and leave a lasting impression. But with so many books competing for attention, how can you make yours stand out, attract potential readers, and encourage more people to discover your story? A captivating book trailer can help make that happen. Imagine turning your book into a short, engaging video that brings your story to life, highlights its most intriguing elements, and gives readers a reason to want to know more. A well-crafted book trailer can help increase your book’s visibility, build excitement, and encourage potential readers to explore it further. We help authors create professional book trailers designed to capture attention, generate interest, and connect their stories with the right audience. I’d love to show you a few examples and share how a book trailer could help showcase your book. Would you be open to seeing some examples?
