I felt this book was caught between 2 worlds. As an Aussie I am acutely aware of our linguistics and there are more than a few inconsistencies here. Perhaps the authors were angling it toward an American market but I feel it cheapens the book for Aussie audiences. If you're going to do an Aussie book, do it right!
In terms of story, I felt it dragged. I felt like it took an age for anything to really develop and then once it has, the book finished.
Between Aubrey and Drew, I felt like we were constantly battling between whether he wanted her or whether she wanted him, I'm still not entirely sure what each of them wants and maybe that's the point. To me, it's annoying and frustrating.
I didn't feel like it needed to have a cliffhanger, I felt the book was a quick read and could've been rolled into one full length novel.
Ultimately I felt like this book was caught between 2 worlds and not in a good way, unfortunately the men of Mornington aren't doing anything for me.

I liked Young Love. Honor is my kind of girl, tough and feisty but also sensitive.
I liked seeing her and Grey's relationship develop but I would've liked to have seen more of them together. We get a great sense of them as friends and their individual feelings but not a great sense of them as a couple, it's hard for me to imagine them together five years down the track.
I also would've liked more depth into who Grey is and his reluctance to get involved with Honor.
I did love these characters but I wanted more!

I was surprised Cleat Catcher focused on Niki and Braden. I thought their relationship was solid and I was happy for it to be. Cleat Catcher shows what happens after.
It was a good, light, entertaining read. I liked the touches of humour provided by Kasey although I did find her a little over the top at times.
I also disliked Braden calling Niki a slut. I know it was in the heat of intimacy but it rubbed me the wrong way.
I felt the problems Braden and Niki faced, while reasonable, could've been played out more, I felt like it only just barely scratched the surface.
All in all, enjoyable but not much substance.

I loved stealing home! I fell in love with Luke from the outset, he's too perfect! I loved how he isn't your typical sports jock and was at pains to prove that. I especially liked the text message reveal towards the end of the book, to me that was perfect as well!
One thing I would've liked to have seen (and I'm trying not to give spoilers here so forgive my vagueness) is I'd like to see more at the end of the book, I'd like it to have been fleshed out so we could see exactly how Luke and Allie's relationship played out, but beside that, as I've said, Stealing Home is perfect! Absolutely loved it!

Edge of Glory was a sweet read which I enjoyed. The relationship between Jay and Lia develops basically straightaway and although I'm not one for conflict, I was expecting a lot moreover it here, especially given her strict parents. I also would've liked to have seen more at the end. (Intentional vagueness so as not to give spoilers!)
Jay is a well developed character, we know all about him, but what we don't know a lot about is Lia. I was surprised when she mentioned her intended college major, I felt like it came out of the blue.
I also found the support characters a little annoying. I know this adds tension but I think it would've been better coming from the couple themselves.
Overall edge of glory is a decent read I would recommend.
