Kiro's Emily

5 ‘We had it all’ stars!There is something about reading a story about two characters when you already know how things will turn out… the entire time I was reading I was just waiting. A little terrified of what was going to happen. Abbi Glines wrote Kiro’s Emily as a free novella for her fans. And in my opinion, it happens to be some of her best work. My heart was broken and I cried a river at the end, but I loved this little novella so much! If you are a Rosemary Beach fan, you know tha [...]

4–Heartbreakingly Good–StarsAlert: This book is not a standalone. In order for this novella to make sense, Take a Chance needs to be read first. Kiro's Emily is a free novella Abbi Glines wrote as a special holiday treat for her fans. It's the heartbreaking backstory of Kiro, a rock star icon, and the love of his life, Emily, who are the parents of Harlow from Take a Chance. As heartbreaking as I knew this novella would be, it was also quite beautiful. I loved seeing the irreverent and crude [...]

5 *BREAK MY HEART* StarsWOW! I had a feeling that this would be good, but Abbi Glines you exceeded my expectations! This is a short novella that was free had all the ingredients of the tale of the sweet girl falling for the manwhore lead singer rock star story with a heart breaking ending. Hands down this book is the BEST OF THE SERIES to date for me. Emily accompanies her slutty cousin, Sonya to follow Slacker Demon from town to town to keep an eye on her. She has remained in the background of [...]

4 stars! I told myself I wouldn't do this, and yet here I am. I deserve every single little feel that got sent my way because I had promised myself that I wouldn't read this book. I even tweeted the author and received this cryptic reply: Gah!!! (btw total fangirl moment when Abbi Glines replied)But then I readJennifer'sreview, and then I saw that this book was free, and then I discovered that I am a masochist and I read it.For those of us familiar with the Rosemary Beach books, we are all famil [...]

When I read Grant and Harlow's books and found out about Harlow's Mom and Dad, I always wondered how they got together and what all had happened. I'm so happy that AG wrote this novella and we get to read their story and she was so sweet to give it to us for free! (thank you!)And boy was their story sweet! Of course, when Kiro first sees Emily, he knows he has to have her! Emily has already been a huge fan as she's been following the band around with her cousin, who is definitely a groupie, but [...]

5 StarsOh my lord, what a book and it was a baby book at that. This little novella broke my freaking heart and the best part is I knew it was coming. I knew how things went down, but still reading it tore me apart. The story begins in the 90’s with Kiro and Emily meeting backstage. Emily was there with her cousin and felt completely out of place. While trying to escape she catches Kiro’s eye and there is just something about her. While things start out completely physical, Kiro backs off and [...]

5 eternal stars! "We get only one life," she said.I shook my head. "I don't believe that. I won't accept it. I want a million lives with you. You're my heaven."Oh KiroKiro and Emily's story is just so powerful and heartbreaking at the same time. Like I was the only thing in the world that she wanted to see. She made me feel like a king.I could definitely read a full novel about Kiro and Emily and then some, this seemed too short for their beautiful story but I'm glad it skipped the heartbreaking [...]

5 'Love you forever'StarsWe all know how Kiro and Emily's story end. If that's whats stopping you from reading this book wellAD IT. You know it's a good book when you can't stop thinking about it and this book is defiantly an AHZEG book. It's gonna make you cry like a baby and makes you swoon. I love Kiro. He is just so beautiful, inside and out. He loves Harlow and Emily unconditionally. This is true love. He didn't have that kinda love and that's what makes me love him more.“Everyone leaves [...]

Her cousin is a groupie want-a-be for the band Slacker Demon, and drags Emily all over following the band on their tours. Emily is a sweet, innocent woman who isn't very experienced with men. But she also isn't blind. She has a little crush on the lead singer Kiro Manning, and he often stars in her private fantasies.After a concert one evening in Chicago, Emily & her cousin a [...]

★★★★ 4 Stars ★★★★Awww I really liked this one. Its been a while since I read an Abbi Glines book, they started to feel a bit samey so I decided to leave this series alone after book 5 or something. This was free, and was being advertised as a stand-alone so I thought I'd give it a go and I am pleased that I did because it was a really easy read that made me feel tingly and warm inside.Kiro Manning is in the rock band Slacker Demon and loves the ladies (sluts) who frequent the bac [...]

I wanted to like it more, but the fact that I hated almost every character in the story had it's consequence.Let me tell you what this story is about from my perspective.Kiro is a lead singer of the most popular bend at the time. He is really hot and really full of himself. He's also really shallow and the biggest chauvinist I have ever came across in the book (and in the real life as a matter of factly).Let me quote some of his thoughts or sentences he said:"That one was mine. I might even fuck [...]

Unexpectedly heartwrenching. This novella is told in Kiro and Emily's point of view. Here, we get to read how their relationship blossomed.I wasn't a huge fan of Kiro Manning because he's a manwhore until I get to read a brief story of what happened with the love of his life, Emily, in one of the books in Rosemary Beach series which messed him up. This novella changed my mind about him. I see the beautiful side of Kiro when he's with Emily. He's a kind and loving man. The last part truly breaks [...]

"We get only one life," she said. I shook my head. "I don't believe that. I won't accept it. I want a million lives with you. You're my heaven."Ως αναγνώστης είναι δύσκολο να ξεκινάς να διαβάσεις μια ιστορία που ξέρεις από την αρχή πόσο τραγικό είναι το τέλος της αλλά η Abbi Glines κατάφερε να μας δώσει μια νουβέλα που άξιζε κάθε γραμμή και σε [...]

I just want to erase the last chapter it made me cry This novella was short, but still, I felt it every emotion

This was a short and sweet novella, telling the story of Harlow's parents, Kiro and Emily. The two were first introduced to us in 'Take A Chance', highlighting their tragic story. Knowing how things would end for these two, I listened to this story with a heavy heart, always waiting for the other shoe to drop.When Kiro meets Emily he is drawn to her innocence. She is out of place at the after-party, clearly not like the groupies that would do anything for a night in his bed. He has to have her.W [...]

5 – Beautiful, Bittersweet, Heartrending – stars – Contemporary RomanceThis poignant novella, which gives Rosemary Beach fans the backstory of Harlow’s parents, rock legend, Kiro Manning, and his one and only true and forever love, Emily, is Abbi Glines at her very best. It’s such a beautiful, emotional, sweet, and heartbreaking story. *sniffle* I absolutely loved it! I’d recommend reading Harlow’s books, Take a Chance and One More Chance, before this story to have complete underst [...]

-I love you, Emily. I will always love you. This life and the one after and the one after that. I will always only love you. -We only get one life.-I don’t believe that. I won’t accept it. I want a million lives with you. You’re my heaven.Loved, loved this story…Το ότι θα αγαπούσα τόσο πολύ τον Κίρο και την ιστορία του με την Έμιλυ δεν μπορούσα ποτέ να το φανταστώ. Το ότι επίσης θα έδινα [...]

*cries*

Review: Surj HarveyFacebook: facebook/TheHopelessRTSU: tsu/HopelessRomanticsBlog: thehopelessromanticsbookblog.bThis book was such a beautiful, touching story about how a young, innocent small town girl captured the heart of a rock star and how her unconditional love and support changed that man forever. Kiro and Emily's story truly swept me off my feet as I got lost in the friendship and subsequent romance that flourished. It was heart warming and exciting and I loved the journey they embarked [...]

Oh Abbi, you have just broken my heart. Even though I knew what the outcome was going to be to Kiro’s Emily, I still cried for like the last 4 chapters and was wishing it would end differently. For anyone who has read any of the books in the Rosemary Beach series, then you are familiar with Kiro from the rock band Slacker Demon. We get bits and pieces of his story throughout the books, but we really get to know Kiro and his story in Take a Chance which was his daughter Harlow’s book. My hear [...]

Is it impossible at this point to hope for an HEA at the end of book? Kiro and Emily stole the scene in Take a Chance and I cried for themwhy don't make them have their happy ending in a parallel universe???? Please!!!After I knew there was a book coming out about them I still don't know if I'm happy (for the book) or sad (since I know how the story ends). *deep sigh*

So much love for this book. Short but oh so good and beautifully heartbreaking. So different from her other drama.

This book was everything an more I couldn't wait 4 this book 2 come out I needed 2 get in2 kiros head an I wanted 2 know more about Emily I luvd how the book started no messin about straight in2 how they meet seein how quiet Emily was thinkin she wasn't like them an she wasn't but seein how she got kiros attention was so good she had him wrapped around her finger from the first moment he saw her Gettin 2 know kiro was good I think I luv him just as much as the other guys in this series an that h [...]

I fell in love with the small tease of Kiro's story in Take a Chance so I was excited to learn we were getting a novella of when Kiro fell in love with Emily.But already knowing how things turn out for the couple, I knew it was going to be a heartbreaking story.It's a story like so many others - arrogant manwhore rock star meets gorgeous virginal angel backstage and decides he has to have her. But it has Glines' special something that makes me turn the page.I liked reading about Rush as a young [...]

I can't say I was impressed by Kiro in Grant and Harlow's story and I also can still not see why he would lie to Harlow about her mother? Reading this story of how he met and fell in love with his Emily, This book lacked something. I know it's a Novella so a short story, but the author decided to miss out the part of Emily's accident and then skip to 20 years later. It didn't have much emotional impact and I know Kiro was not expected to live like a monk after Emily's accident but the fact he we [...]

3 starsI liked seeing the tender, loving side of Kiro. He always left a bitter taste in my mouth with all his womanizing ways. His love for Emily was/is sincere. My only criticism is that the story ended abruptly, not giving the reader a glimpse into what Kiro experienced during Emily’s tragedy.

I loved this short story of Kiro and Emily. If you read "Take A Chance" and wanted to know more.hing more about that Kiro then this book helps answers some of those questions. That was the Kiro that blew me away when he was caring for Emily because all we've ever seen before that was the drunk, drug using, foul mouthed, obnoxious, rock star manwhore. And to see him do a 360 really blew me away and left me feeling conflicted and wanting.This is the endearing story of how they met and how they sta [...]

Currently the novella is free for pre-order!This story is going to be sad to read because we all know that fate was cruel to them. I was curious about Kiro/Emily when I read Take a Chance. The book really showed a different side to Kiro.

Okay I'm on a fence with this one! >_<Please tell me this end with one big whooping HEA! Yeah?With rainbow farts and everything? Am I right?I loved this author and the series but knowing what happened to them I'm freaking afraid to even touch this! EDITED:Well, okay. I touched it! lol.This is more like a novella, the story is basically how they met, how they fell in love and eventually to understand how they got thereghI would say that their love story is beautiful, its one of those books [...]

Biri bu kadını durdursun!Artık kahramanların anası babasını da yazmaya başladı.Ömrüm yetmiyecek bunun yazdıklarını okumaya.Sırf Rosemary Beach yaza yaza Rosemary Halk Plajı etti yemin ediyorum.
