Down to You - M. Leighton

The scorching tale of one girl and two brothers in a love triangle…that’s not.

Olivia Townsend is nothing special. She’s just a girl working her way through college so she can return home to help her father run his business. She’s determined not to be the second woman in his life to abandon him, even if it means putting her own life on hold. To Olivia, it’s clear what she must do. Plain and simple. Black and white.

But clear becomes complicated when she meets Cash and Nash Davenport. They’re brothers. Twins.

Cash is everything she’s always wanted in a guy. He’s a dangerous, sexy bad boy who wants her in his bed at any cost. He turns her insides to mush and, with just one kiss, makes her forget why he’s no good for her.

Nash is everything she’s ever needed in a guy. He’s successful, responsible and intensely passionate. But he’s taken. Very taken, by none other than Marissa, Liv’s rich, beautiful cousin. That doesn’t stop Olivia from melting every time he looks at her, though. With just one touch, he makes her forget why they can never be together.

Black and white turns to shades of gray when Olivia discovers the boys are hiding something, something that should make her run as far and as fast as she can. But it’s too late to run. Olivia’s already involved. And in love. With both of them.

Both brothers make her heart tremble. Both brothers set her body on fire.

She wants them both.

And they want her.

How will she ever choose between them? 

First I want to note that I was 100% TEAM CASH the whole book!!! J LOVE HIM!!!!!!!! (Okay, I had to let that out, I feel better now!) 

So, after reading the teasers that Michelle posted while waiting for this book to be released, I thought I had an idea of what this story was going to be about…and I was completely wrong.  From the first chapter I was wrong, but I liked that! She kept me guessing! 

My brain is always trying to figure out what the end game is in a story.  How’s it all going to come together? I had a few ideas on this one and even came close to the right answer but never fully and I loved that! I love when I can’t predict what’s going to happen! 

I liked Olivia, she seemed like such a normal main character.  Good student, good work ethic, friends that love her and a Dad she adores.  The way she was trying to decide between the two brothers reminded me a little bit of Beautiful Disaster…the one you want vs. the one you think you should want.  The big difference here was that they both were smokin’ hot twins! (Isn’t that every male fantasy?!?!) Well with these two, I think twins just became every female fantasy too!  

The bad boy, owns a club, seems to be a playboy and is very forward with his sexual wants.  Even still I always thought there was more to Cash and found myself rooting for Olivia to choose him.  Even if all he was offering up front was a “friends with benefits” type relationship, and even if he was her boss.  There was just something about him that seemed deeper to me than just the playboy.  I felt like I wanted and had to know more about him the whole time I was reading, and found myself disappointed in Olivia when she felt drawn to Nash.   

The good guy has a girlfriend! And the girlfriend was her bitchy, stuck up, thinks she’s better than everyone else cousin.  That was just the end of the good guy for me.  I know he was smart, sweet and looks at her like he shouldn’t but a girlfriend is a girlfriend.  Even if she sucks! Plus there was just always something that didn’t seem right to me about Nash.  I just couldn’t put my finger directly on it.  

Secrets revealed and steamy scenes add to the awesomeness that is Down to You! But now there is just me, waiting (pouting) for book two to be written…and believe me when I tell you…you will feel like you NEED TO KNOW what happens next!
