REVIEW TOUR: The Downside of Love by Meghan Quinn



The Blue Line Duet

By Meghan Quinn




THE DOWNSIDE OF LOVE


 


This isn’t a story about a love triangle. There is no triangle involved.

This isn’t a story about an accidental pregnancy. Although having a baby with her . . . I would.

This isn’t a story about lies and deception, even though at times I’ve lied to myself.

No, this is my story.

A story about sacrifice.

A story about a man who fell in love with the wrong girl.

A story I wish I never had to tell.

This is a story about the true meaning of the downside of love.

I feel so conflicted! Never… like EVER have I had an author confuse my heart so much! This duet has left me reeling. I really felt a certain way after The Upside of Falling and I was so floored when I cracked open The Downside of Love and found myself starting to understand… starting to give. I struggled with letting go of what I wanted from The Upside of Falling. I stubbornly held onto what I felt should have happened. I’m just so conflicted over these turn of events! I have to say that I feel like I have to have another book… a spin off or something… I need what was hinted at the end.


So yeah, I’m being totally vague and confusing for people who haven’t read this book or duet. Anything and everything I say is a spoiler and I don’t want to do that to you, you all deserve to go through all o f this on your own without me bursting a bubble before it’s fully executed. Meghan Quinn has been one of my favorite authors. Her writing is upbeat and fun, yet she’s creative and descriptive. I read Ms. Quinn’s books like the devil is on my heels. I can’t get enough and soon, they’re over and I’m left wanting more. 


I really, REALLY hope Meghan Quinn reads this because I LOVE and HATE her so much right now! This duet was beyond anything I ever expected! I’m so happy to have read it and so pissed off I did at the same time. Ms. Quinn was able to make me root for everyone… I wanted everyone to have their cake and to eat it too, you know? I feel like stomping my feet in anger and patting Meghan Quinn on her back at the same time… I’ve never been so torn, so wrecked over books before… I’m really not even kidding. This duet wrecked me. I ended it crying… literally, I had tears running down my face. I think this is what every author should strive for. I can’t stop thinking about these books, these characters. 

Fan-fucking-tastic job Ms. Meghan Quinn… I think I hate you!! 


PS… please write a spin off. I need more of that last chapter. Really, you owe me. I stayed up late reading on a work night because I HAD to finish. I think we both know you did this all on purpose, so yeah, you owe me! You know it!

I received an ARC of this book with the hope that I would leave an Unbiased Opinion. I was not required to leave a review, positive or otherwise, and my opinions are just that... my opinions.







THE UPSIDE OF FALLING


Tucked away at the base of the Rocky Mountains lived a little boy with one singular dream: leave this broken and battered home and become someone.

Be somebody’s hero.

That boy was me—Colby Brooks. Except I’m not that same little boy anymore.

My dreams might still be the same, but my reality isn’t.

I’m smarter. Stronger. A man.

And I learned a long damn time ago, the only way to achieve my dreams was to avoid distractions—at any cost.

Focus. Resolve. Determination.

But all it took was one single night. One night and my entire life…changed.

One night had me colliding head first with the biggest distraction of my life; Rory Oaks.

Smart. Charming. Beautiful.

Rory changed everything.

Quickly, my one-track mind started to bend.

Each kiss faded decade-long dreams.

And with one single incident, I fly off course.









 


ABOUT THE AUTHOR



Born in New York and raised in Southern California, Meghan has grown into a sassy, peanut butter eating, blonde haired swearing, animal hoarding lady. She is known to bust out and dance if “It’s Raining Men” starts beating through the air and heaven forbid you get a margarita in her, protect your legs because they may be humped.

Once she started commuting for an hour and twenty minutes every day to work for three years, she began to have conversations play in her head, real life, deep male voices and dainty lady coos kind of conversations. Perturbed and confused, she decided to either see a therapist about the hot and steamy voices running through her head or start writing them down. She decided to go with the cheaper option and started writing… enter her first novel, Caught Looking.

Now you can find the spicy, most definitely on the border of lunacy, kind of crazy lady residing in Colorado with the love of her life and her five, furry four legged children, hiking a trail or hiding behind shelves at grocery stores, wondering what kind of lube the nervous stranger will bring home to his wife. Oh and she loves a good boob squeeze!
