FIVE STARSReviewed by Sharon Thérèse Nuttall for Kindle Friends ForeverThe storyline of this book isn't an easy one. It is full of complex twists and turns which pop up when you least expect them to. But saying that, the author has managed to give this angst-ridden love triangle of a story flow. While on school holiday, young twin brothers, Jared and Justin, befriend Meadow when she’s dragged along to her mother’s place of work. The new school term starts and that’s when their friendship blossoms into love. Both are extremely protective of her and although there’s a certain amount of rivalry, their lives don’t start to get complicated until Meadow makes a discovery which she doesn't want to reveal to anyone. When the cat is eventually let out of the bag is when we see a huge turning point in the story. The boys’ father is a nasty piece of work and even though I couldn't stand him, he fitted perfectly into this gripping plot that had me turning the pages until the early hours of the morning. Meadow’s mother upset me immensely, too! A loose lady in a small town who’s more interested in her temporary bedmate than in the daughter’s welfare. I could have strangled her for being so selfish and I'm sure you will too!Meadow’s heart has an owner, yet the battle to win her over is going to have you sitting on the edge of your seat. She is beautiful, shy, sensitive, and loves writing songs. Hence, when the brothers buy her a guitar for her fourteenth birthday, her inspiration flourishes. She’d already been christened Beats by one of them, and she in turn, had christened the brother who plays the guitar, Riff (Rift). These gorgeous males might be identical twins but they’re like chalk and cheese. One is hot-headed with a very strong personality, the other more placid. But the only thing they do have in common throughout this fabulously well-written story is going to rip their lives to shreds. Will they be able to get their act together regardless of the many mistakes they've make? Will all be forgiven once they find out about the bombshell that’s going to be dropped on them, too? Talk about bowl me over and knock the air out of my lungs is an understatement! I never expected that outcome and found it enthralling.The sex scenes are so explicitly described that I had to get the fan out! Flipping heck, the author certainly knows how to get you flustered! I've read other books by Ms Dukey and this is without a doubt one of the best she has written yet. Simply bravo Ms Dukey. Simply Bravo!
