***POSSIBLE SPOILERS PRESENT WITHIN
REVIEW***
Another great
start to a new series of books from author Melyssa Winchester! What first drew
me into choosing to next read this book was the beautiful cover. So reading the
blurb was the obvious next step. Who wouldn’t be intriqued by the thought of
engaging in a story with two hot wrestlers who travel from town to town showcasing
their love for the sport? So when they encounter twin sisters, Avery and Emery,
they’re totally smitten with the two. At first the guys don’t realize that
there’s twins involved, which turns out to be pretty humorous, but then when
they do, both men are even more attracted to the two. The story revolves around
each couple’s romance with some pretty heavy emotional drama within each
character’s life. Avery and Emery meet for the first time and it’s an emotional
moment. One of them didn’t know that the other existed not realizing that she was
lied to all her life. But, they embraced their relationship and became close.
As a family member is battling a terminal disease and their impending death is
soon approaching, the two women are strickened with the imminent loss.The guys,
Brady and Jax, are also forced to deal with painful and unwanted distress with
both their families and their careers. Brady’s soon to be ex-wife is just a
pain in the ass. Bothering him constantly when both of them know that their
marriage is over, which puts pressure on Emery and Brady’s relationship. And, poor
Jax he’s been hurt in the past, and now he just keeps making mistake after
mistake with Avery when he knows that relationships are difficult for her. Her
past was such a lie, and she just can’t move beyond it. Will these two couples be able to survive all
the repercussions from their actions even though their heart is in the right
place??
What I loved
about this book was the romance! As much as I liked Brady, Jax was really it
for me. What he says and how he acts is romance at its very best. The dancing
was just so swoon-worthy. And, even though most of Jax and Avery’s intimate
moments were fade-to-black, they still were just so exquisite and dreamy. A
little corny at times, but that’s okay, the romance made up for it. As for the
two sisters, Emery takes the cake! She just seemed much stronger than Avery and
more wild, which thrilled me. The cliff-diving and her and Brady’s sexual
encounter was exciting. It was spontaneous and freeing. Even though Brady had
to be talked into it, he realized that this girl was doing something to him. He
was totally into her. He soon realizes that their relationship was nothing like
he had ever experienced before. There definitely was insta-love between each
character, but I didn’t mind at all. It just fit with the characters’
personalities and the storylines within the book. And, even though there was
that insta-love, each couple did experience their own set of problems.
“The
haze I’d been living in, going from one show to the next, never really paying
attention to anything going on around me, determined to just do my job and move
onto the next one, it lifted when I saw you, Avery. You, even with your eyes
all wide and frightened, were the first person since everything fell apart that
I could actually see. I saw you then, the same way I’m seeing you now. Clearly.
You’re the only thing that is.”
~ Jax (Chap.36)
And, that
epilogue, it was really moving to read. Painful, but meaningful. Tearful. I just
have to see how all this plays out in the end. Four beautiful people that
deserve to find their happiness with their one true love. Like I said, the
romance was what this book was all about. Such a stunning creation! So looking
forward to reading the next installment in this duet!
