Bobby Beckerson was the American All-Star hockey player--he was the spitting image of perfection to his family. Goofy, sweet and undeniably gorgeous, he had everything but the one girl he wanted: River Ahlers.

River Ahlers is successful in everything but love. She's been in love with Adam Beckerson since they were kids. Worst of all she's stuck right in the middle of the brother's dueling over everything and anything, and she doesn't even know she's the ultimate prize.

Adam Beckerson was a boy with a guitar, a smile that sunk girl's hearts and a stone wall around his own. He was anything but perfect, and no matter how hard he tried he was nothing compared to Bobby. Sweet, damaged, with boyish good-looks, nobody thought Adam loved anyone but himself.

Bobby loved River, River loved Adam and Adam only loved himself--or so everyone thought. Then one night everything changes, and as it threatens to destroy everyone involved a tragedy strikes that will break them all...

 Excerpt:
I nodded my head and watched as Adam's hand lingered on the neck of the Ibanez™ before he picked it back up and slipped the strap over his shoulder.
    I sat on the edge of the bed as he began to play without an amplifier.
    The noise was tinny without the electric part hooked up but that didn't matter.  Adam's fingers moved effortlessly from fret to fret as he strummed the guitar.  His headed nodded ever so slightly to the beat and his bare foot tapped the floor as he closed his eyes and a smile formed on his lips.
    I stood and placed my hands around his neck, yet he continued to play, nod his head and tap his foot with his eyes closed.  The only change was on his lips as they crept into the seductive grin.
    I leaned into him, letting my hands comb through the hair on the back of his head as my breath washed over his lips.
    Still nothing.  The guitar continued to hum with his talent.
    I let my lips hover over his, then let them wander over the soft skin of his neck and up the stubble of his chin.  The beat remained smooth, undisturbed as the strings squealed and he deepened the riff.
    I paused as my lips reached his again, lingering at the corner of his mouth where the cold metal of his lip ring teased me just as much as his fingers on the guitar.
    I let my mouth run over the metal until it caught in my teeth and I sucked it in.
    Finally, his body reacted tensing as he groaned - but his playing didn't cease, didn't change.  He still resisted, hand strumming a tease over the strings next to the skin of my belly.
    His mouth responded to mine as I let the ring and his lip slowly slip away from me.  That was it - the guitar spun to his back and he yanked my hips to his own.
    "I need you to play me like that guitar," I gasped as his hand tilted my head and his tongue ran over my trembling neck.
    His other hand drifted down my torso.
    "Good, because I wasn't done with my song," he growled into my ear.
