Hahaha! I read this all today. Once I started, it was hard to stop.
It was ... hi-larious. That's drawn out, like, Firefly Jayne style.

I want to talk about it with someone.
Anyone else reading it>?

[Lys]

Eh, 3.5.
I'm pretty harsh with my stars though.
It was funny and steamy. I wouldn't call it amazing, but it was good.

[Lys]

Yay! Yes I hope to have them all posted tonight. I needed to flip through all of the books. :)

[Sheri, Bookworm]

I'll be reading it later this week Alyssia. I'll discuss with you then :)

[Katie]

I read this book in just a couple days. I agree with you Alyssia it was hard to stop reading. The book was good for the most part. It definitely not my favorite but I will be reading the sequel.

I do not mind a good love triangle - but I am not so sure about twins - seems wrong somehow...

Not my favorite either, but fun.

I had reservations too. I would say, keep reading past the part where it seems horribly offensive ... it'll be ok.

50% - I'm liking this so much more than I thought I would. I was just writing last night that I'm not a fan of a book with more than one first person pov chapters - and this one has three. But it works. I like Olivia. She isn't a perfect little Mary Sue. But she doesn't pity herself either. Though the author does make her a little too good to be true. And I like Nash and Cash - the names though.. really? I want a happy ending... for all three...

[[deleted user]]

67% - (view spoiler)[
HOW THE HECK DO YOU NOT KNOW WHO YOU HAD SEX WITH???!! (hide spoiler)]
Not going to lie.. that's kind of creepy! I'd be insulted for either - and both - guys.
Cash is pulling ahead of Nash for me though.

[[deleted user]]

85% - Okay. I have gotten to the big moment. (view spoiler)[I did suspect something so it wasn't a huge shock. But still a good twist. My problem though, is there does not seem to be enough motive behind Cash becoming Nash. His father is still in jail for murder. Seems flimsy. Interesting idea, but I need a bigger reason. And it does not excuse Olivia's behavior. She might have been with the same guy. But she did not know it. They both, or all three if you want to count Nash, lied and cheated. (hide spoiler)]

If you were Olivia would you forgive Cash?
Do you think Cash should have forgiven Olivia?

[Lys]

Personally I find Olivia more reprehensible than Cash.
But they were both wrong. And I guess there's something flattering in her attraction.

[[deleted user]]

I definitely felt worse for Cash. I really did. When... (view spoiler)[Olivia came on strong to Nash that last time and he was so heartbroken that's when I wondered if they were the same person... (hide spoiler)] And I felt so bad for him. You can also tell later when he tells her the secret that he's always been jealous of Nash. Must have been hard on him. I actually love the twist. I just think the reason was weak. In my opinion. But Cash? Cash I love.

[Lys]

Yeah, I liked Cash a lot too.
And I think that the outward reason was flimsy, like you said. (view spoiler)[
But the other reason, maybe not. Again, as you said, Cash was really jealous of Nash. So, that might have been the "real" reason. (hide spoiler)]

[[deleted user]]

True. (view spoiler)[He probably felt guilty that he was the one that lived because it seems as though he thinks he is the useless one. I like how in the end of the book the personalities have merged. And he is both, and neither. (hide spoiler)] I hadn't really planned on reading the second book but I wonder if she goes into more detail on what happend. And why it happened.

[Lys]

I don't know about the second book either. It looks very crime oriented, and I'm not terribly interested. But this one was a lot better than I expected. So maybe.

[Stephanie]

I read this last month and I really enjoyed it! It was funny and had the right amount of hott moments! Plus the twist was great! --Kind of seen it coming, but still enjoyable.
