Preston is one bad boy. And Amanda has harbored a crush on him for forever. When she finally makes her move on him, it does not end well. But still, she can’t resist him. Especially now that he seems to be pursuing her, too.
No one wants wants them to be be together. Not Amanda’s brother Marcus, who is on the verge of his marriage to Low, and definitely not any of Preston's buddies. They know way too much about Preston’s dark side. Yet the dangerous attraction is there...and neither Preston nor Amanda are going to deny it.
I believe I found a favorite out of the series! I just absolutely loved this book the moment I started it. I couldn't put it down, lets just say sleep wasn't a priority. Manda is this sweet innocent girl that has been in love with Preston for a long time. Preston is just absolutely delicious but he's a major playboy that harbors feelings for Manda also. But with his line of work he doesn't think he's worthy of her. Man, when those two were to together, the chemistry was crazy. Very steamy. *Fans self* Everyone should check this out! You won't be disappointed.

Each time I read one of Abbi Glines books, I am completely blown away by how amazing it is. I think to myself there is no way it can get any better, and then she does it again. It is mind boggling the talent this lady has. I am a huge fan of Abbi's, and the Sea Breeze Series is one my favorite of all her series. I fell in love with Sadie and Jax in Breathe, came to adore Low and Marcus in Because of Low, Cage and Eva's story was fantastic and left me all hot and bothered every time I thought about it. I thought, there's no way it can get better, but people, Preston's and Amanda's story has taken me to a place I didn't think a book could transport you to. Preston Drake has got to be the hottest guy ever birthed from the creative mind of Abbi Glines. He just oozes with sexiness. It seeps through the pages and right into your heart, and other places. That being said, his story is also heartbreaking, and the depth of emotion I felt for what he had gone through left my chest aching and a lump in my throat.
Amanda Hardy is a doll. She is absolutely perfect for Preston. I loved her character, and really admired her because I don't think I could have handled some of the things she did. What she went through would probably crush a lot of people, but she handled it with a grace and patience that amazed me. She is Marcus' little sister and the little sister to all the guys he hangs with. Needless to say she has been "off limits," but she also has a long line of "big brothers," ready to beat the crap out of anyone they think is messing with her.
One thing I really love about this series is that you can read each of the books as a stand alone easily, but trust me when I say you will want to read the entire series. I really love the way that each of the books focusing mainly on a certain couple, yet we get to see the characters from the other installments in the series make appearances in each of the books, and it brings you such a level of connectedness and satisfaction in seeing what is going on with these people you have come to know and love.
Now lets talk about the sex. This book probably has the most intense and descriptive scenes so far, yes even more than Cage York's book, and if you know Cage York, he is sex on a stick so that is saying a lot. This book is hot, and it will leave you will you flushed with your mouth gaped open, wanting to read it again. So keep that in mind when you read it. It is a New Adult book and has scenes that are inappropriate for younger readers, but for the older readers, it's like candy canes at Christmas.
Just for Now is everything all of us Abbi Glines fans could have hoped for and so much more. Preston and Amanda's story will take your heart on an emotional roller coaster ride up to the highest point imaginable and then plummet you forward leaving your head in a cloud, your stomach in your throat, and your heart screaming for more. Trust me when I say, you have to have this book. Abbi Glines knows romance and she knows hot to write a hot sexy scene, and most importantly, she can write a story that will transport the reader into the pages of the book, giving you a ride you never imagined.

This book is 197 pages long. It gives both views from Amanda and Preston. There is a lot of dirty language and sex scenes. Neither bother me, but it was the substance of the story that was lacking for me. At times, i skipped pages. Not worth the $7.99 I paid.

Ok...i am a huge abbi glines fan...i have all her books...was a little disappointed when her books started costing almost 8 bucks instead of less than 5...part of the reason i loved them was that they were awesome reads for not alot of money...very disappointed that this one was less than 200 pages...it seemed rushed to me without any of abbi's bonuses...there were also alot of mistakes and parts i didnt understand...like the scene wgen marcus asks preston why be never said he loved amanda(the balcony scene)...um...hello...didnt preston tell marcus he lived amanda when marcus came to his apartment to wake him up? Also..the way amanda forgave his infidelity seemed VERY rushed to me...i had a hard time believing that part....all in all i did like it but not as much as her other books

I enjoyed reading Preston and Amanda's story, but for some reason it felt a little rushed to me, but none the less Abbi Glines is a great writer and I have enjoyed all the stories in the sea breeze series so far.

Getting tired of writers using female virginity as some sort of cleansing rite for flawed male characters. He could find no other job but prostitution.... really ? Seems like his buddy found him a regular J.O.B without much effort! If the tables were turned, would this story work?

Abbi Glines does not disappoint - just when I thought no one could be hotter than Cage in While it Last, Abbi introduces Preston into my life and wow he is sexy and hot. He loves hard and he protects his girl hard. Manda is just want Preston needs because she is so incredibly sweet but strong when the time comes to defend her man. This storyline is just as emotional as the other Sea Breeze books but man oh man a lot steamier. Please keep it coming Abbi ;)

Definetly could have been better. I liked the plot, just not the execution.
