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.

DOWN TO YOU:
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?

EXCERPT
THREE
“That’s
right. I guess I did mention it before. I seem to remember us
having a conversation about how amazing you are while looking into a
mirror. Do you remember that?”
As
she walks, she still watches me. I can see the flash of hot desire
in her eyes. I’d be willing to bet she remembers it just as
perfectly as I do.
She
clears her throat. “Um, yeah. That seems vaguely familiar.” Her
grin is playful.
God,
what a tease!
“Vaguely?
Maybe I didn’t pound it into you hard enough.”
“Oh,
I think you pounded it in plenty hard.”
“Maybe
I should’ve taken the time to give you a good tongue-lashing, too,
then.”
“Oh,
I think the form of communication you used was very effective.”
“So
it’s all coming back to you now?”
“Yes,
it’s all coming
back
to me.”
“If
you’re lying, I could sweat it out of you, you know.”
“I’m
not lying. It’s etched into my memory. Permenantly.”
“Maybe
we should revisit it, just so you’re clear on everything we
discussed. I want to make sure it’s in there. Nice and deep. So
you never forget it.”
Finally
her grin turns into a giggle just as we’re nearing the cut-out at
the end of the bar. When she rounds the corner, I’m there blocking
her way with my body.
“I
doubt there’s anything you could do to get it in there any deeper.”
“Oh,
I can think of one or two things. The only way we’ll know for
sure, however, is to try. And I don’t know about you, but I’m
committed to this. Invested. And I’m nothing if not thorough.”
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.
