The Beats in Rift

I was invisible, until they saw me. 

When circumstance forced me and the Jacob twins to spend two weeks of the summer together, the bond we formed would impact us all, altering our lives. 

Fate, entwining us forever. 

They became my best friends, my family, my first love. 

With their love came their father’s hate! 

Love is powerful but also painful and destructive when it’s torn between three people. When my mother’s reputation and their father’s vile actions damage that love, that friendship, it changes the dynamics of our trio setting me on a path of love, loss and impossible decisions. 

Jared the beautiful rogue, who pushed her limits, opened her eyes and owned her heart. Their love was powerful, everlasting… until he abandoned her. Justin, loyal and true, picked her up when she was left fragmented. He made a place for himself in her heart and would fight to keep it. 

When both twins come in and out of Meadows life, leaving damage and hurt in their wake, will she ever choose one or the other, or leave them both without the beats in their heart?

I tried to stay away from love triangles since I read "Taking Chances" by Molly McAdams. 

If you haven't read that book it is a gut wrenching beautiful read.

This book maybe be a love triangle in a way, but it's not as heart wrenching because from the get go you know where Meadow's heart is. The three form this amazing friendship but Jared and Meadow have always had more in common. When their dad does things that make Jared turn his back on Meadow, she is completely crushed. Justin too has always loved Meadow and now that Jared is gone he is left to pick up the pieces of her broken heart. By doing so, he cemented his place in her heart. Just when Justin and Meadow are going to take the next step in their relationship Jared shows up and blows it all to hell. Throughout this journey, they come in and out of Meadows life and stay just long enough for her to open back up then outside forces creep in and tear it all up. This may seem like a battle for Meadow's heart, but there is one moment when she and Justin get together that I knew her heart and soul belonged to Jared. For this reason, she is quick to run back to Jared whenever he shows up. As the years go by there's a life changing event for Meadow so when the men comeback into her life it's not just her heart she needs to protect. This time Jared takes a stand and refuses to let Meadow go. Things get scary as his dad decides to take matters into his own hands, and then there's Justin to deal with. Some hot steamy, juicy sex scenes. The ending was fantastic.
