I’m comin’ in hot here with a blanket statement about my preferences: I do not like love triangles. I don’t care if it’s even the slightest hint…I hate it. Knowing that, you might have a little insight into how I felt reading this book. It’s a love triangle. Two brothers and a girl. Lord help me. I was in pieces for most of this book. Chewing my nails down, stomach cramping, feeling nauseous. Yes, all of those things happen when I read love triangles. Okay, now that we understand how I felt reading most of this book, let me bring to light how much that ending BLEW ME AWAY. I don’t think I’ve ever come back from a love triangle and the ending of this book did just that. It saved the story for me. It took the triangle and dumped it on it’s head. It completely turned everything around and changed the way I experienced the whole story. Now THAT is talented writing, if I’ve ever seen it. 

Okay, Linc and Penelope. Woah. These two are explosive. Think of what you imagine hate sex being like and then multiply it by ten. They are at each other’s throats, passionate and frenzied. Their story is catastrophic. And then…there’s Colt. Sweet, angelic Colt. If I weren’t utterly obsessed with alpha assholes, Colt would have been my dream man. Unfortunately, Penelope (like myself) prefers her men a little darker. But here we are. Stuck between two men. Linc, the older, darker, rebellious brother. And Colt, the sweet, genuine, caring brother. Both have exceptional qualities and both have a piece of Penelope’s heart. She met the boys when she was nine, living in a foster home. They took her under their wing, both in their own way, and took care of her. Eventually, she moved into their house and became another member of their family. Torn between the two brothers, she was Colt’s girlfriend but secretly felt a strong pull towards Linc. 

Tragedy strikes the family and that’s where my review has to come to and end. I can’t ruin the story for you! This was a short, sexy read. I read it in one evening…I couldn’t put it down. Regardless of how uncomfortable the love triangle part of it made me feel, I cannot applaud the ending of this story enough. You’ve got to take a chance on this book. It’s wonderful. I cannot wait to dive into the next book in this series. 4 stars!

“I was so afraid I was betraying him with you. The looks. The flirting. Prom.” I look over Linc’s shoulder and see my reflection. “But I think maybe all that time…” my heart aches with the thought, “I was betraying you with him.”
