Jude and Lucy.... they took my heart on a wild goose chase through this book. There were scenes so sweet and beautiful I'd melt right into a puddle on the floor, and swoon so hard I didn't think I'd get up. Then there were scenes that had me freaking out and wanting to slap some sense into them. I enjoyed the journey. Every emotional mile. :)In the 1st book, I could not get enough of that beginning chemistry between Jude and Lucy. But oh my- that boy was a hot mess. In the second book I kinda wanted to slap Lucy in the face. ;) She kills me when she breaks Jude's heart.In this 3rd book, we're introduced to where Jude and Lucy stand a couple years after we last saw them. Jude gets drafted into the NFL & has his heart on his sleeve begging for Lucy to marry him soon. But Lucy is kinda busy channeling her inner Beyonce trying to prove what an independent woman she is who doesn't need marriage... or a man's money. What?!? Hot guy you love is offering you the moon and you would rather be alone and make your own cheese??? If he says "Marry me today" - she says not yet??Jude- Pick me! I'll marry you! I'll give up my non-existent dance career for you! I'll have your little Jude babies.What's that you say? He's not real, this is just a book, and I'm already happily married with kids?Anywho....It didn't take long before I understood where Lucy was coming from. I was 100 percent invested & really wanted to see them work out their battles. Fight their inner demons. Grow, mature, and become better people. To stop being jealous, understand each other and get on the same page people! And oh my- maybe I don't remember the other books that well, or maybe J & L just kicked it up a notch in the sheets... but it got pretty steamy throughout this one! I really loved the writing. The beginning chapter is blatant foreshadowing so hold on to your panties and enjoy the ride. I love how the author tied things together throughout the books. I loved some of the new people we got to meet, and getting to know better some of the ones we've met before. And I loved loved loved the ending.Enjoy! I know I did. I still can't wipe this huge happy grin off my face.
I hate to say this but I could not stand Lucy in this book. Come to think of it, I couldn't stand her in all of the books. She is completely self centered, only thinks about what it best for her, and can't come up with reasons why she's upset. I was so angry everything someone asked her what was wrong and her response was "I don't know." YOU DO KNOW! You're upset because Jude is the quarterback of an NFL team, has money, and you think he's going to leave you for something "newer." The sooner Lucy admits this, the better the book would be.... but she doesn't admit it. She lives in her own world where it's okay to be upset for stupid reasons.I felt for Jude throughout the book and was sorry for him in many cases. I felt that their tempers were unnecessary but that seems to be their relationship. I also found the book, especially the ending, to be unrealistic.I wasn't impressed with this book and wished the series was wrapped up better.
I was pleasantly surprised to see that this final installment of the Crash Series was delivered automatically overnight and was magically awaiting my discovery first thing when I woke up this morning.So, let me say that I love Jude and Lucy. There's has been a tumultuous love story with any and everyone telling them they aren't right for each other, but maybe they just aren't right for anyone else either. They bring out the best and the worst in each other, but at the end of the day, they always come back to each other. Because in the end, they have this explosive love that pulls them back together, no matter what tries to tear them apart.I must admit that I am a bit tearful that this was the last book in their love story, but I was very happy how it ended. Guess I'll just have to read it over and over again!
Holy ovaries ladies... when did Jude and Lucy become so... what can I call it? R rated? I was seriously not expecting some major hot love scenes between the two in Crush and was very happily surprised. Who knew Facetime on the iPhone could be so sexy? Jude and Lucy have certainly grown up in their 4 year relationship and it really showed in Crush.I am a huge Crash Series fan. I fell in love with Jude... okay Lucy too since book one and am sad to see this series end but I am completely happy with the ending and my life can go on without thinking there is more story to tell. It was perfect.**Beware spoilers for those who have not read Clash (Crash #2) yet.**Crush picks up three years later from where Clash (Crash #2) ends... if you don't remember let me recap for ya. Jude is a hot shot QB in college, Lucy is a hot shot dancer at a totally different college. They overcame a lot of jealously issues as well as distance to finally get engaged on the football field in front of the entire crowd to make it one epic of a proposal.Three years later and here we are in Crush, they are STILL engaged. Lucy is a bit of a commitment phobic if you ask me. Jude is drafted to the NFL and is taken across the country again, another distance issue but really it's not the main problem this time around. Lucy is trying to be independent and to follow her dreams while Jude is living his.I really am happy with everything Crush had to deliver. I am usually not a big fan of "book 3's" in series usually because I feel the characters/storylines have run their course and book 3 is usually just a drawn out end. Yes, Crush was an end but I felt the story in Crush was also really good and entertaining. Jude & Lucy have really grown up since Crash and Clash in many ways, not just S-E-X, hot S-E-X might I add!I just wish Jude was in the story a bit more. Jude being in Southern California for football and the book being in Lucy's perspective as she is still living in NY, working and attending school; we don't get a whole lot of Jude time. I ended up really appreciating this at the end because I loved Lucy and respected her more for wanting her dreams, wanting to make her own money, and not live off of Jude and his millions; but to be her own person.While Crash and Clash were more Young Adult, Crush is definitely Adult or at least mature YA. I really hope other readers notice and appreciate the growth over the 4 year span of Jude & Lucy's relationship like I did.I give Crush (Crash #3) 4 Stars.
