Accepting Agatha

I couldn’t put it down!

When I heard that there was going to be a spin-off from the Shark’s Edge Series, I was over the damn moon. Anyone that knows me, knows how much I loved that series and all the amazing characters in it. I was devastated saying goodbye when the series ended. When I saw it was Hannah’s sisters that were getting their own books, I was so happy! I was intrigued by them and wanted to know more about them when they appeared in Elijah and Hannah’s books!

This is book one in the Bombshells of Brentwood series and it can be read as a standalone. This is Agatha and Carmen’s story and it starts with them in Vegas for Agatha’s sister, Hannah’s wedding. But after drinking WAY TOO MUCH, Agatha and Carmen (Hannah’s husband's assistant and friend) wake up married too rather than getting it annulled, they have decided that they will stay together, move in together and give the marriage ago for the next 12 months.

Carmen and Agatha were complete opposites. They couldn’t be more opposite if they tried! He was very stable, dependable, secure, worked extremely hard at his job and liked to live his life very organised, whereas Agatha was very impulsive and a hot mess 99% of the time, but I love Agatha wholeheartedly. My heart hurts for her also. She has been through a lot and is someone I can relate to and I’m sure others will too. Understandably, she is the way she is and as the story develops, you can see there is significant growth within her character.

These two together were opposites, yes, but they also balanced each other out in a way. Even though they started this entire relationship backwards and got married first, Carmen was good for Agatha, I think he was exactly what she needed to settle her down. I even liked the moments things weren’t hearts and flowers and these two did fight, it made them even more relatable! It was made obvious that these two were meant to be together. The undeniable desire, connection and chemistry was intoxicating and was there throughout the book and the passion and heat was sizzling hot!

Overall, I loved Carmen and Agatha’s story so much. There was so much character growth and development throughout the book and crazy enough, this is my first ‘Married After a Drunk Night in Vegas’ book I’ve ever read and I loved it. It was different to what I’m used to. The storyline was so easy to get lost in and I most definitely will be rereading this! Victoria Blue is a master of her craft and has delivered an extremely well-written, outstanding, emotionally charged, all-consuming, addictive, unputdownable story.
