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?

After reading the first two books in the Rain Trilogy, I couldn’t wait to read this last book. Especially after the way the second book ended. So when I got the email telling me I would receive the ARC soon, I was super excited and couldn’t wait to start reading. And when the book arrived I started reading as fast as I could.

In this third and final book, we are days after the day the world was supposed to end. The world is still there but it is a hard and dark world. For plenty of people there is nothing to live for anymore. But that’s not the case for Rain and Wes. They have their love for each other. But the big question is, is that love enough to survive a world without any rules?

‘Dying For Rain’ is definitely the perfect ending to this series. Before I started reading I was a little afraid this book wouldn’t be as good as the previous two. Which unfortunately happens to in a view of the trilogies I read. But luckily this was absolutely not the case with this book. ‘Dying For Rain’ was the perfect blend of thrilling, romantic and suspenseful and I couldn’t put it down.

After reading the first chapter of this book, I was definitely afraid this book would leave me heartbroken. And it did.. but in a good way. I simple loved the characters Rain and Wes. They were so good for each other, and so.. real. And Wes.. well.. he makes you want him for yourself. I mean this handsome, kind of bad, tattooed guy who looks at you like you’re the only person in the world? What’s not to love.

It’s to bad that it’s only January, otherwise I would easily say this book and this series will be on my Favorite Reads of 2020 list. But I’ll bet you they will be at the end of this year.

If you’re looking for a dystopian, suspenseful and romantic read? I would definitely recommend this one!

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.

Check out my review of ‘Praying For Rain’ and ‘Fighting For Rain’:

BB Easton lives in the suburbs of Atlanta, Georgia, with her long-suffering husband, Ken, and two adorable children. She recently quit her job as a school psychologist to write books about her punk rock past and deviant sexual history full-time. Ken is suuuper excited about that. Praying for Rain is BB’s first full-length work of fiction. The idea, fittingly, came to her in a dream. If that sounds like the kind of person you want to go around being friends with, then by all means, feel free to drop her a line. For more information please visit her website.
