Forbidden Boy Review

Forbidden Boy By Hailey Abbott

Julianne has a passion for photography, and painting from her mom. She lives in a old house by the beach with her father and her older sister, who is her best friends in the world. Their mom died a couple of years ago and the only memory they all have of her is the house they live in, which their mom choose many years ago. All over the years people have come to live by the beach and build new things and houses and have tried to push Julianne´s family out of their house, but they never succeded. That is until the new neighbours show up and they are much tougher than the others. It is summer and in the fall Julianne is starting senior year in high school. But now it is summer and Julianne is going to hang out with Chloe, her friends, go to parties and work as an designer on a house, where she is the only girl who is going to work there. At the first party in the summer, when Jules and Chloe is about to leave a boy named Remi runs into Chloe. And when Jules and the the look at each other the are in a whole other universe. Jules gets his number, but loses it, but if it suppose to be, it is suppose to be. So jules becomes really happy when she runs into him at the beach, while surfing.
They spend the day together, but when she see him go home, she discovers he's the son of the Moore family, their neighbours who are forcing her family out of their beach home and destroying the beach with their monster house in the process. Chloe says that she can´t date him now because he is the enemy. Jules after finds out he is her manager at work and that she has to be with him everyday, and starts to spy on him. After some time they begin secretly dating and sneaking around, until Chloe finds them together kissing in a tube at work. Jules says to Remi she can´t see him anymore and Chloe is so mad at Jules, she says she has betrayel the family and that when their father gets home in a week she has to tell him. She tells her dad, but her dad is understanding. Now they just have to enjoy the rest of their time in the house before they get kicked out. But does Remi have other plans?

I thought this was a really good book but not as good as the two other i have read. This was an emotional, fun, sweet book, about a tight family and their loss. But that you can find love from the most weird places. I really liked how tight their family are, and i wish my sister and i were that close - Like best friends.
An annoying thing about the book is: Okay, like she (Jules) met him (Remi) 2 minutes ago and is already kissing him? That is totally different from the other books she has written. In them it is almost first in the end they kiss. In this book it seem a little rushed.
