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?

Meet the Main Characters of DOWN TO YOU
Charlie Hunnam as Cash/Nash |
Cash / Nash
Davenport, twins
Age: 25
Reminds me of: Charlie Hunnam of Sons of Anarchy
Physical description:
His short hair is dark
blond and his face is chiseled perfection. I can’t tell what color his eyes are
as he scans the room, but I can see that they’re dark.
When I stop in front
of him, I have to look up. My five and a
half feet of height is nearly a foot shorter than his towering frame.
Up close, I see that
his eyes are brown. Dark, dark
brown. Nearly black.
Sinful.
Quote that best
describes Cash’s personality:
“I promise you won’t regret it. I promise to make you feel things and enjoy
things you never even thought of before.
I’ll make every night the best night of your life until you say it’s
over.”
Quote that best
describes Nash’s personality:
“Olivia, you’re beautiful, smart, funny. Any man would want you.”
Quality (Cash):
He goes after what he wants, not matter what.
Vice (Cash):
Jack Daniels.
Quality (Nash):
He’s honorable.
Vice (Nash):
Focus is work
Kendall Jenner as Olivia Townsend |
Olivia Townsend
Age: 21
Reminds me of: Kendall Jenner
Physical description:
Damn, she’s beautiful!
Between this girl’s
black hair, her bright probably-green eyes, her banging little body and the way
she seems a tiny bit shy, I’m wishing we were alone in this room together.
Quote that best
describes her personality:
“I’m just glad I didn’t
pee all over myself.”
Quality:
Grounded.
Vice:
She has a penchant for
the bad boys.

Happily
ever after doesn’t come easy. But for
love, it’s always worth the fight.
Olivia finds bliss unlike any she’s ever known in
Cash’s arms. He sets her skin on fire
and melts her heart right inside her chest.
Unfortunately, their happily ever after is short-lived when a shadow
from Cash’s past threatens to turn their world upside down.
Dangerous
people from his father’s world have discovered that Cash holds information that
could put them away for a very long time.
And they’re willing to do anything—and hurt anybody—to get it back. Giving it up means Cash must choose between
the life of his father and the life of Olivia.
Having nearly overcome her wariness of bad boys,
Olivia’s trust is shaken when this new threat arises. Now she finds that Cash is not only a danger
to her heart, but his family has associations that are a danger to her life as
well. She soon discovers that there are
some situations in life where trust is a girl’s only option. And this is one of them. If she’s to live, she must trust Cash with
her life. But to Olivia, that’s much,
much easier than letting go and trusting him with her heart.
About the Author
New
York Times and
USA Today Bestselling Author, M. Leighton, is a native of Ohio.
She relocated to the warmer climates of the South, where she can be near the
water all summer and miss the snow all winter. Possessed of an overactive
imagination from early in her childhood, Michelle finally found an acceptable
outlet for her fantastical visions: literary fiction. Having written over a
dozen novels, these days Michelle enjoys letting her mind wander to more
romantic settings with sexy Southern guys, much like the one she married and
the ones you'll find in her latest books. When her thoughts aren't roaming in
that direction, she'll be riding horses, swimming in ponds and experiencing
life on a ranch, all without leaving the cozy comfort of her office.
About Michelle: I love coffee and
chocolate, even more so when they are combined. I'm convinced that one day they
could be the basis for world peace. I also love the color red and am seriously
considering dying my hair.
