DOWN TO YOU by M. Leighton Review & Giveaway

DOWN TO YOU by M. Leighton-Adult Contemporary Romance
Kindle format given by author for review/ARC

The scorching tale of one girl, two brothers and 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?



My Take:
It's rare if I am rendered speechless by a book. I kid you not, for the last quarter of this book, my mouth was hanging open. I mean, I had several different theories of how this story was going to play out. Some were close, some not at all. All I can say is that this book left me stunned, overheated, and wanting MORE!

I'm going to go light on the character analysis, because that is such a huge part of the story. I could truly go on and on and on and on about how much I love Cash, but I'd rather you meet him. These people have so many secrets and twists that I'm afraid I'll give something away. So, I'm going to do this instead:
Olivia-sweet, funny, lovable, hard-working, and determined to succeed
Cash-(I literally just sighed WRITING his name) sex on a stick, perfection, sexy, sweet, smart, bad-boy
Nash-clean-cut, sweet, charming, responsible, good-boy
Ginger-hysterical
Marissa-I want to "paper cut her and roll her in salt". Harsh, I know. 

So, there you have it. LOL Really, I just don't want to say anything more about them. Well, OK I will say this....there are some incredibly steamy, panty dropping, swoon-worthy moments. *wink* 

On to the storyline. Incredible. Everything you think you will know about it probably won't be right. No joke, I had several theories. Now, I know I've said this before, but I'll say it again...M. Leighton has one of the most creative minds. She brings new ideas to each and every book . I've named her Marvelous M. 

In a nut shell, I knew I would love this book, but it exceeded my expectations (which were pretty high). There were moments that left me panting (and pants-less-JUST KIDDING), taking freezer breaks, needing to be hosed down, throwing my head in the couch, and in jaw dropping awe. This book will take you on a mind twisting ride for sure!

DOWN TO YOU is scheduled to release on September 23rd. RUN to get it!
