by Pepper Winters
The Ribbon Duet Book 2
Publication Date: June 5th, 2018
Genre: Coming of Age Romance
Synopsis:
“What do you
do when you write down all your secrets? No…that’s not enough. What do you do
when you write down all your secrets and the one person who should never read
them does?
I’ll tell
you what you do.
You hope.”
REN
Ren didn’t
know the meaning of love until he took Della for his own.
To begin
with he hated her, but as the months bled into years, he learned the opposite
of hate, dedicating his life to giving her everything.
Every
sacrifice, every gift, he gave wholeheartedly.
But then
love turned to lust and ruined everything.
DELLA
I was stupid
to write my secrets down, but I’d been stupid before so it was nothing new.
I couldn’t
blame him, hate him, fix him.
I tried to
move on without him.
But no
matter what I did, I couldn’t seem to delete the secrets I’d written.
Until
something happened.
Until he
came back and read my stupid secrets.
And nothing
was the same after that.

MY REVIEW ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
This story blew me away. It’s real and so very beautiful in its dichotomy
of simplicity and complexity. A story
for the ages that will go down as the best duet/story I have ever read. The ante has been upped and it will be
difficult, near impossible for this story to be outdone. As result, this duet will ALWAYS own a piece
of my heart.
Right from the very beginning, this book
made me feel every desperate heartfelt emotion I’ve ever felt. I felt the deepest of despair to the most
profound devotion.
It is a remarkable story that transcends
time and space but yet hits so achingly close to home.
I loved being part of Ren and Della’s
journey. Their story pulled me in and
wrapped itself around my heart and squeezed, never once letting go.
Ren’s character, I fell in love with. Throughout everything, he puts Della
first. Everything he does and says leads
him back to his true love. He never
falters. He is resilient and so very
real.
Della is so very smart and strong. She is the perfect match for Ren. She loves him as desperately as he loves her. I felt their love as if it was tangible, something
real.
This a powerful and undeniable story of
life and love and its very finest.
Recommended for everyone but especially those who truly believe
love conquers all.
Please note that this is the second book
in a duet. The Boy & His Ribbon must
be read first. To read my Review of The

I received an ARC of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own.
EXCERPT
The fallen
papers crunched beneath my boot as I shifted my weight, leaning into her,
seeking an answer. “Why didn’t you tell me?”
She
flinched, her eyes closing beneath an avalanche of pain.
This hurt.
Everything
hurt.
“Della…please.”
My calloused thumbs caressed her silky-soft skin, catching on her young
perfection with my older imperfection.
Ten years
separated us.
Ten years
was an eternity when she was a babe and I was a boy, but now…it no longer held
such power. I refused to let it because I didn’t know what I’d do if I couldn’t
touch her the way I was touching her now.
She laughed
quietly, full of torture and tragedy. “I did tell you. In a roundabout way.”
“You
didn’t.”
“But I did.”
She dared meet my eyes. “I never understood how I could touch you, hug you,
kiss you, and you never knew. I didn’t know how I could hide my jealousy when
you were with Cassie or later with your one-night stands. I lay awake at night
analysing every sentence I said to you, amazed that you never heard what I’d
been shouting for longer than I could remember.”
