Royal Rating:

Get seduced by a sizzling account of attraction and betrayal in this previously self-published phenomenon.There was something wicked about Beau that drew me to him. What was wrong with me? Why did I want to sin so badly?
Ashton is getting tired of being good, of impressing her parents and playing ideal girlfriend to Sawyer Vincent. Sawyer is perfect, a regular Prince Charming, but when he leaves town for the summer, it’s his cousin Beau who catches Ashton’s eye. Beau is the sexiest guy she’s ever seen, and even though he’s dangerous, Ashton is drawn to him.
Beau loves his cousin like a brother, so the last thing he wants to do is make a move on Sawyer’s girl. Ashton is off-limits, absolutely. That’s why he does his best to keep his distance, even though he’s been in love with her forever. When Ashton wants to rekindle their childhood friendship in Sawyer’s absence, Beau knows he should say no.
Ashton and Beau don’t want to hurt Sawyer. But the more they try to stay away from each other, the more intense their urges become. It’s getting way too hard to resist...

“I heard my name." Ash's voice startles me. "You tow better not be making fun of me about this stupid bra Mama's making me wear. I've had it with the jokes. I'll break both your noses if it doesn't stop.”

I loved this book! I had heard so much about it from all of my Twitter friends so when I was in Chapters and saw The Vincent Boys and The Vincent Brothers I HAD to get them!

I will admit however that I was a little surprised because I was under the impression that they were much steamier then it actually was. It was also a very fine line between a YA book and an NA book, mainly because of the age of the characters… there were seniors in Highschool.

However, neither of those things kept me from reading the book and enjoying every second of it!

Ash and Boone’s romance was kinda Romeo and Juliet, although totally not a tragic… they both obviously wanted to be together but neither of them wanted to hurt the one person that would essentially be hurt the most… Sawyer.

It was a little annoying how ‘perfect’ Ash tried to be, so when she started hanging out with Boone and breaking the ‘perfect laws’ I was so happy to see that side of her. Boone brought out the best in Ash, even if everyone only saw it as the worst in her.

I was totally sad though at the end when the whole thing went down, I felt sorry for Sawyer because he was understandably hurt, but I also felt really bad for Boone and Sawyer because of the curve ball that was essentially thrown at them as well.

Overall… GO READ THIS BOOK! It was a really good read, a little steamier then a typical YA book, but by no means is it way to much for most readers and what sexy scenes were in it were all very clean and fun at the same time.

  1. I'm kind of bummed that this book isn't steamier lol. I felt that way about one of Abbi Glines' other books (Just For Now). I thought it was going to be a lot hotter than it was! Anyway, I'm glad you really liked the book. I might give this one a try. :)

  2. I really wished this book was also steamier but only the versions on the internet are apparently. I liked it though, good read and great review!
