Bounce A Boomerang Novel Noelle August 9780062331106 Books
A perfect ending to this highly addictive series, BOUNCE is flirty and fun, romantic and sexy, sweet, seductive, and tension-filled. Add in an irresistibly tempting boy, a stage kiss that sizzles, a friendship with seriously enticing benefits, and you have an absolutely delicious read that you won’t be able to put down.Grey Blackwood has been hiding out at his brother Adam’s house, trying to avoid dealing with the repercussions of what went down with his family and trying to figure out what his next steps will be. But when a small get-together with his band becomes an out of control party that trashes Adam’s home, he’ll have to either dip into his trust fund or find another way to pay off the twelve thousand he owes for the damages.
As using his family’s money to pay for his mistake is not something he wants to do, when Adam insists he work for him until his debt is paid, he agrees. Even though being a gofer on the set of Adam’s latest project will not be the quickest or easiest way to make that happen. And it won’t be nearly as interesting or exciting as being the lead singer of a band.
Skyler Canby has been desperate to find a way to stay in Los Angeles and not have to return home to her needy mother and a life without any hope of a future she’d want. So when the opportunity arises to audition as an extra for Bounce, a film based on Jane Austen’s Emma, she jumps at the chance. Even if the odds are slim because she doesn’t have the experience or the typical “look.” Because this is her last chance and she has nothing left to lose.
So when a shot at the lead role becomes a real possibility she gives it everything she has. Including the stage kiss with the too young, too hot brother of the producer. Which might just be real enough to land her a role in the film. And which might just have been real enough to ignite something between them.
Noelle August concluded the series with two of its most interesting and likable characters. The authors gave Grey and Sky issues both could relate to, common interests, struggles, flaws. They allowed them to become friends first and foremost, even though their chemistry was undeniable. They also let the story be about each of them as individuals and not just about them as a couple. And they included just the right amount of romantic tension and swoon-worthy scenes to make this read riveting.
As with its predecessors, BOUNCE is told in alternating POV chapters, allowing readers to get to know and connect with both Grey and Skyler. It introduces a few new and positively adorable characters and it offers cameos of those from the two previous installments. Grey and Sky’s story and love story are well-developed, incredibly appealing, wickedly entertaining. This third and final book in the Boomerang series is not to be missed. It is an utterly bewitching, feel-good read and a wonderful way to say goodbye to the characters.

Bounce A Boomerang Novel Noelle August 9780062331106 Books Reviews
I enjoyed this book a lot. In fact, it was my favorite of the three books in Noelle August's Boomerang series. Featuring Grey Blackwood and Skyler Canby, the younger brother and best friend, respectively, of Adam and Mia from the prior books, it's a fun, fast read with a love story and nicely developed characters. I liked Grey and Skyler and, by the middle of the book, found that I cared about what happened to them.
Besides being enjoyable and holding your interest, Bounce is well-written. It's nice to find a good beach/airplane book with prose that's a pleasure to read. It had a few good, steamy sex scenes--to be enjoyed or skipped, depending on how you feel about those things. I think it works for most people, as it's a 95% "clean read."
My recommendation by all means, take this book on vacation with you this summer. It's a perfect beach companion and a lot of fun, too!
PItch perfect!
I loved reading Bounce and Rebound, but this one was definitely my favorite because at heart, it's a story about love and growing into who you really are. It's not a sterotypical romance, but tackles deeper issues of self-identity and nuanced things like how we carry our parents' emotional baggage around with us. It's a story about finding one's place in the world, not just getting the hot guy or the hot girl.
It's about the things that matter. Family. Love. Your passion in life.
And for those who complained about the romance aspect, I thought it was a really cute thematic play on the Victorian novel, since Jane Austen's Emma plays a central role in this book.
Characterization was amazing. I laughed, cried, and fell in love. What more could a person ask for in a romance?
This was, by far, my favorite in the series. I know many feel otherwise. But, to me, the character development was spot-on. I looooved watching Grey and Skyler's world fall apart and get pieced back to together.
Unlike the first two books, BOUNCE felt age appropriate. You didn't have to be told their ages because the character voices and humor were entirely Millennial. In BOOMERANG and REBOUND, the characters came across more middle-aged than early-mid twenty-something. Fun. But not believable. Not so in BOUNCE. The internal and external struggles Grey and Skyler face felt more relatable, too overwhelmed with responsibilities for others, financial strain, poor body image, learning healthy boundary lines, personal passion vs career choices, learning to have grace for self, troubled relationship with parents from an adult-to-adult perspective. So many REAL moments in this book.
Grey and Skyler's relationship was more flirty than steamy, not so much a libido fest like the first two books. In a hookup culture where instant gratification is the norm and acting on consensual sexual urges is encouraged (and hot to read in literature), it was great to see characters think about the consequences of their actions toward their romantic interest. Even when their bodies are screaming to get it on. Even when their bodies are getting it on. It didn't feel contrived or forced, either. Like a gimmick to suspend the heart-racing action so the reader turns pages until pheromones kick up again. You know, the usual guy's line of "Tell me when to stop." Girl says, "Don't." No. None of that. It felt real. A truth about being in love with another. Respectful. A boy becoming a man when realizing his actions, even if consensual, would, in the end, hurt the heart of the woman he was falling for. I appreciated that. And, in NA romance, I find it wholly refreshing.
First two books 3.5-3.75 stars
This book solid 4 stars
