This book is PURE FANTASY!! Twin hotties not only vying for your attention, but also doing it in such a seductive and sexual way that practically every setting of your life leads to foreplay? SIGN ME UP!

The opening scene in Down to You is great...it set the whole tone for the rest of the book. Cash and Nash (but especially Cash...WHO likes bad boys? Me, me!) both somehow pop up in Olivia's life within a day of each other.

Cash is a bar owner bad boy who's sexy, slow smile and flirty ways draw Olivia like a moth to a flame. Though flirt sounds like something a fourth grader does compared to Cash's come-ons. He wants Olivia, and he intends to have her. By 'have her', I mean he wants to F*ck her brains out. But Olivia is done getting her heart broken by bad boys. She knows Cash is the love em and leave em type, and she tries (and fails) to run far, far away.

In steps Nash...who's sitting in her kitchen with her beeyotch of a cousin...because they're together. Not only is he the spitting image of the god she met the night before, but HIS interest is pretty clear also. And he soon leaves no doubt that he wants her just as much as his brother, regardless of his girlfriend. Problem is, Nash is what Olivia SHOULD want. He's on his way to being a successful, solid lawyer. He's cool, calm, collected (unless he touches Olivia, then all bets are off.)

So Olivia is stuck wanting both boys. What to do, what to do? Well if you're Olivia, you don't have to do anything. These boys are willing to do ALL the work. This is women's fantasy put into words. I loved, loved, loved the first ninety percent of the book

Somewhere toward the end, everything sort of comes to a head. Secrets are revealed and all of a sudden, the story takes a huge turn. For me, it was just felt totally out of place. I understand that it was supposed to be a surprise ending, and I was okay with one aspect of it...I'd already kinda figured out the little twist. It wasn't hard. But what is revealed after that just didn't jibe with the feel of the book. Suddenly, it's a romantic suspense? Hmmm...

Still, I get what the hype is all about. Cash and Nash are lip smacking good...pure decadent sexual fantasy, and I loved it!!

Great review, Nicole! Please, tell me, in the end they organized a cute cozy menage or she ended up with one of the brothers? I won't read the book so you may be honest with me ;)


Kristen Great review, Nicole. I really look forward to reading this book.

Thanks Kristen. I'm glad I finally got to it, and it's only around 200 pages on my Nook, so fairly quick, too!!


Kristen Oh, with it being so short I can probably get to it soon. Life is getting so busy with the holidays almost here. I don't have the time to read like I normally do. :(

Girl, I hear you! I normally like to read only when I have a nice chunk of time to devote to it, but I'm finding snatches wherever I can recently.

For some reason, I can't read these sexy scenes while my kids are running around...makes me feel pervy, squirming with them in the room, LOL!!

Me too! It just feels so wrong. LOL.

Perv! LMAO! I feel your pain Duchy. I have contemplated sitting in the car (in the driveway) to read, just for some time away from sweet baby's all seeing eyes :)


Kristin (KC) Awesome review, Nicole! And I love that the beeyoch makes a cameo ;) I can't wait to get to the end of this story so I can figure out the twist you're referring to!!

Wasn't it you and I that were lamenting the trials of ready sexy books while children are around?

Lala, I think you'd like this! It's nothing but pure romantic fantasy, but perfect when you need a fluffy sexy book.

Your beeyotch NEEDED a cameo...she's an ugly person who doesn't deserve her name to be used, LOL! Geez, am I unforgiving much? LOL!

@Nicole
That's not cheating! That's an adaptation to circumstances and forced transformation of opinion LOL Seriously, if you hadn't told me I would never have decided to give it a shot, never. I was sure it's a menage book, 100% sure. And I don't mind spoilers, they calm my nerves, hehe.

Yes indeed it was :) If I come up with any stellar hiding spots, I'll let you know ;)

You're right. I suppose if it gets you to read it when you wouldn't have before, it's okay. Nope, no menage! I'm not all about the multiple partners thing either! m/f for me, please!!

Ah! Cool beans then. I think you'll like it when you do get to it.


Georgia ♥ Very nice review Nicole! I agree with all your points!


Duchess Nicole Thanks Georgia! It was a good one, and I'm glad I finally got to it!!

@Nicole
Could you be my special menage counselor? For the future books, I mean. I will keep asking you, 'Does it have a menage, Nicole' and you will say 'yes' or 'no' ;)


Duchess Nicole I've never been a special menage couselor. It sounds interesting...much more interesting than I believe it was supposed to, LOL! You always make me laugh, Lazy!! So yes...yes, I'll be your special menage counselor. ROTFL!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well, hon, you could put it on your resume LMAO Just in case ;)
