ALPHA BOOK CLUB'S REVIEW

Title: What Happens In London

“The kiss was sweet and deep, and my body felt electric.  God, so this is what I’d been missing all those years?  I pressed my lips to his hungrily, but then he pulled back gently and smiled.”

Four stars!  This was a cute quick read, not my style of book to read, but it was cute overall.  I wasn’t bored by it.  It was definitely a cutesy book!

Four countries.
Three girls.
Three loves.
One adventure abroad they'll never forget.

Sarah landed in London, just hoping to leave her home behind and escape her family. But she didn't plan on falling headfirst into Carson's arms.

Get ready for a summer of self-discovery and romance in the first of the New Adult novella series,

Sarah is working in London as a nanny, or Au Pair if you will.  And although she loves the job, she’s suddenly fired.  While browsing in a bookstore one day she meets Carson and she’s totally flattered that he’s interested in her.  Although while you read you are slightly uncertain of Carson’s motives or feelings towards her.  The end of the book leaves you with a lot of questions, which means you have to get the next book in the series.  These are quick little reads, so that makes them fun to read.

Title:  What Happens In Paris

“There’s nothing better than kissing in Paris.  Hunter and I went all over the city, and I know we saw a lot of amazing things, but every time he kissed me, my mind went blank and I forgot what we’d seen.”

Three stars for this next book in the series.  The first book was a lot better.  Not to say this one was horrible, but the first was absolutely better than this one.

Four countries.
Three girls.
Three loves.
One adventure abroad they'll never forget.

Camie can't figure out what she wants, from college or life…until she meets Hunter. But will the magic of a romantic night in Paris last till the morning?

Camie is in college under a scholarship, when her grades drop she ends up losing her scholarship.  Which means she needs to take out loans to finish her degree.  The loan she gets gives her enough money to go and sightsee Paris.  This is where she meets Hunter, whom I’m not too sure how I feel about him. He gets her drunk and pretty much takes advantage of her, she wakes up and has no recollection as to what happened the night before.  She finds out that she lost her virginity to him, they had sex at least three times and Hunter assures her that she was totally into it.  This book like I said was okay, not my favorite at all, the first book was a lot better.

Title: What Happens In Berlin


“His kiss was warm and slightly wet, but the feeling of our lips touching wasn’t exhilarating.  I let him kiss me for a  second, but when he started to try to use his tongue, I pulled away.”

Four Stars!  The third book in this series is a lot better than the second by far.  It was a quick fun read.

Four countries.
Three girls.
Three loves.
One adventure abroad they'll never forget.

Interrupting a summer of fun, Joelle takes a detour to Berlin for her older brother's wedding. Spending time with her family is enough to make anyone go a little crazy. She's ready to lose it...until she meets Vi, a girl ready to turn her world upside down.

Follow her journey in the third installment of the New Adult series, Adventures Abroad!

Joelle is having fun for her summer break, that is until her brother writes home to say that he met a girl and they were engaged, but to make matters worse, they’re getting married in Berlin….GERMANY!!  So off her family goes, a vacation to Berlin, which wouldn’t be too bad, but she’s going with her whole family.  She’s going crazy, While out she meets Vi and let’s just say it gets crazy from that point.  This is another fun quick read, not totally my genre but it was cute overall!!

Title:  What Happens Abroad

“I reached up on my tiptoes and brushed my lips across his, gently.  His lips were warm and sweet and he kissed me back, slowly at first, then with more passion.  I pulled my mouth away the minute his hands folded around my waist, but he didn't’ let me go.”

Three stars, only because I feel like a lot of questions weren’t answered from the first three books.  But overall the book was cute and fun

Four countries.
Three girls.

One adventure abroad they'll never forget.

After a summer of fun, Camie, Joelle, and Sarah are ready to reunite in Italy for one last adventure, but heartbreak waits in the shadows of the cobblestone streets. Can Florence cast its spell and turn lost love into a final fling?

Well I was hoping to have a lot of questions answered from the first three books, which I didn’t completely get.  This book was just a continuation of Camie’s story, which is fine but what happened with Sarah and Joelle’s story??  I really liked the series overall, but kind of disappointed that some questions weren’t answered.
