Who doesn't love M. Leighton?!
We certainly do and Everything for Us was everything we expected.
We certainly do and Everything for Us was everything we expected.
Olivia Townsend’s wealthy cousin Marissa had everything a girl could ask for—a great job, a privileged life, and all the friends she wanted. Or, at least, all the friends money could buy. But one case of mistaken identity has turned her privileged world upside down.
An abduction gone wrong lands her right in the lap of the sexiest, most dangerous man she’s ever met. To Marissa, he’s an enigma, but one to whom she’s irresistibly, inexplicably drawn.
With him comes a new world of freedom and passion, of dark shadows and dangerous secrets, a world where nothing is what it seems—except for the blind passion that Marissa can’t escape—or maybe even survive.
The
wait for more of the Davenport twins, particularly Nash (and I mean the real
Nash, not Cash pretending to be Nash) is finally over! And Everything for Us does not disappoint.
Everything
for Us was the perfect next instalment in the Bad Boys series (I’m loathe to
call it the conclusion because I really, really hope that Leighton will write
Gavin’s story). It’s where we learn a
lot more about Nash and where we watch Marissa transform into a genuinely nice
person. The story did start a little bit
slow but it wasn’t long before I was well and truly absorbed back into the world
of Olivia, Cash, Marissa and Nash.
The
connection between Marissa and Nash is dynamite. They’ve both had life altering experiences
and are evaluating how they will move on from them. For Nash, being exiled for seven years
following his mother’s murder has resulted in him having to make choices he
would not have ordinarily made just to survive.
As a consequence he is an angry, bitter man, focussed on revenge. Marissa’s abduction has given her a total
shift of perspective and has her walking away from the person she used to
be. Both of them see elements of
themselves in each other and both think they are too broken to be worthy of the
other.
There
are some very hot scenes in Everything for Us - Nash is a bad, bad boy and
Marissa seems to be a worthy ‘opponent’ for him. Despite a level of submissiveness she doesn’t
let him totally walk all over her and her strength of character is one of the
things Nash finds hard to resist. An
event from the past provides insight into Nash’s interest in Marissa and has
consequences he fully expected but was hoping to avoid. Marissa has revelations about her father and
his manipulation of her, which actually strengthens her resolve to be a better
person. Cash and Nash persist with their
quest to gain justice for their mother’s murder and there’s just enough of Cash
and Olivia to keep everyone happy.
If you’ve
read the first two books in the series I think you will be satisfied with book
3. As I said, I’m loathe to refer to it
as the final book in the series because I would love to see some more
Gavin.
