Excerpt:
My heart thuds in time with his footsteps as they echo down the hallway, and Rain’s heart beats even faster where it’s pressed against my chest.
She’s here.
Holy shit.
She’s actually fucking here.
I wrap my arms around her trembling body and squeeze so hard I’m afraid I might crush her. I don’t move. I don’t breathe. I close my eyes and pretend that time has stopped, just for us. That tomorrow isn’t coming. That we’re fleshy statues now, and we can stay like this forever.
But we can’t because Rain’s trembles are now full-body shudders as the sob she’s been trying to hold in leaks out all over my chest.
“Wes,” she cries, burying her face in my neck. “I’m so sorry! I shouldn't have—”
“Shh.” I smooth a hand over her hair and feel her breath, hot and desperate, on my skin.
Rain lifts her tear-streaked face. Her pouty red lips tremble as they pull into a frown, but before she can let out another sob, I seal her mouth with mine. She tastes sad and girlie—all salty tears and cherry lip gloss—but she kisses me back with the determination of a woman. Her tongue slides and swirls around mine. And her hands dive into my hair, holding me like a balloon in danger of floating away. Then, her kisses begin to roam.
“I love you so much,” she murmurs, kissing my cheek.
“Oh my God, I missed you.” Her kisses trace the line of my jaw.
“This is all my fault.” She breathes against my neck. “I’m gonna get you out. I promise. I’ll … I’ll figure something out.”
“Hey.” I capture her face in my hands and tilt it back so that I can stare directly into her wide, panicking eyes when I tell her, “I’ll get myself out. Do you hear me? You shouldn’t be here.”
Rain’s eyelids close as she exhales a quiet, shuddering sob. “This is the only place I want to be.”
Without looking up, Rain grips my zipper and slides it down my chest. I grit my teeth as she reaches in and wraps her arms around my exposed torso, pressing her wet cheek against my bare skin. My eyes sting. My lungs scream for air. Nothing fucking hurts as much as this woman’s touch. It filets me like a dull knife. At first, it hurt because I realized that no one had ever cared for me like that before. Then, it killed me because I knew once she left, no one ever would again. But now? Now, her love cuts me down where I stand because I can no longer deny how much I want it.
I don’t want to die for her or let her go or try to convince myself that she belongs with someone else. I never did. The soul-crushing truth is that I want her more than I’ve ever wanted anything. I want her by my side and in my bed and in my life forever. I still don’t believe that God will let me have her, but until he pries her out of my cold, dead hands, I’m going to keep fighting.

I was never meant to get the girl. To have the happily ever after. That's not how my world works, and this shit right here is proof. 


What could be worse than knowing the exact day the world is going to end?

Waking up to find out that it didn’t.


The post-April 23 world is a lawless, senseless, ruthless place, but it’s not loveless. At least, not for Rain and Wes.

But when the government begins holding daily televised executions as a demonstration of their power, that love is put to the ultimate test:

Sacrifice one life to save the others?

Or sacrifice the others to save the one?
 

I will refrain from gushing about my love of all things BB Easton in this review, unlike the last two reviews from this series. If you read my reviews, by now, you surely know I'm a fan girl.

I was given a copy of Dying for Rain early for my honest review! Dying for Rain releases everywhere on January 30th. If you haven't read any of the trilogy yet, you can binge read on the 30th, and trust me, your missing out if you don't!  If your thinking post-apocalyptic romance isn't your thing, your wrong, it is your thing. 

Did I mention BB's first series of books 44 Chapters About 4 Men, is going to be a Netflix series? Well it is, because she's a bad ass and her writing is awesome, and hilarious, and steamy. So go read those books too, trust me you will thank me later. 

Dying for Rain was the PERFECT conclusion for this trilogy. It had everything the first two books had, and the ending was everything it should be. This was my favorite of the three, because we finally got to see Rain be a bad ass. She was so awesome in this book. She stood up for herself, she took charge, and she went to battle for the people she loved. This was by far my favorite version of Rain. In the first two books you could see little bits of this Rain coming through, but she wasn't quite there yet. 

I also liked that while you got to see Rain be the bad ass I always knew she could be, you got to see a more vulnerable side to Wes. Don't get me wrong he was still this sexy, brooding, bad boy edge to him, but he was different in this book- possibly the threat of impending death brought out this side of him? 

Wes presses his lips to the top of my head as my lungs finally run out of air, and it breaks me all the way. 

Because I know this kiss. 

I know all of his kisses. Wes is trying to comfort me.

But who's going to comfort him?

I thought I hated Q in book two, but she was a saint compared to the Renshaw's. Man, what a bunch of jerks. I've never hated some characters in a book like I did those people. They were just awful. I guess you could make the argument that they were acting the way they were because they thought it was the end of the world, but I don't buy it. I think Agnes Renshaw had always been a horrible person. And don't even get me started on Carter. 

All of the side characters in the book, even the ones that just made short appearances were fantastic. The whole book, heck the whole series, was written so fantastically. I say this every time, and I'll say again, BB has a way with words. She can describe a scene, or a person so well that it feels like you have been dropped down in the book and your seeing it for yourself. I love that about her books. Her attention to detail really make a book come alive. 

Overall, I'm giving this one 5 STARS. The whole trilogy gets 5 STARS. BB gets 5 STARS for being an amazing human, and such a bad ass. Don't sleep on these books guys, even if you think it's not your cup of tea, I still think you will love them. 

Do I sacrifice one life to save the others? Or sacrifice the others to save one?
