Truth or Beard by Penny Reid

Truth or Beard (Winston Brothers, #1)

by Penny Reid

Beards, brothers, and bikers! Oh my!

Identical twins Beau and Duane Winston might share the same devastatingly handsome face, but where Beau is outgoing and sociable, Duane is broody and reserved. This is why Jessica James, recent college graduate and perpetual level-headed good girl, has been in naïve and unhealthy infatuation with Beau Winston for most of her life.

His friendly smiles make her tongue-tied and weak-kneed, and she’s never been able to move beyond her childhood crush. Whereas Duane and Jessica have always been adversaries. She can’t stand him, and she’s pretty sure he can’t stand the sight of her…

But after a case of mistaken identity, Jessica finds herself in a massive confusion kerfuffle. Jessica James has spent her whole life paralyzed by the fantasy of Beau and her assumptions of Duane’s disdain; therefore she’s unprepared for the reality that is Duane’s insatiable interest, as well as his hot hands and hot mouth and hotter looks. Not helping Jessica’s muddled mind and good girl sensibilities, Duane seems to have gotten himself in trouble with the local biker gang, the Iron Order.

Certainly, Beau’s magic spell is broken. Yet when Jessica finds herself drawn to the man who was always her adversary, now more dangerous than ever, how much of her level-head heart is she willing to risk?

DNF – I read so many glowing reviews about this book and series but it just didn’t click for me.

This goes to show you that all reviews are simply personal thoughts on a story and whether or not it clicks with the individual. I recently read another glowing review for this book, the characters, the humor, etc., and I decided to take a break from my TBR and checked my eShelves. It turns out that I have a few books in this series and a few other Penny Reid books which have I have been collecting when they were on sale since this original release in 2015. I grabbed book 1 for this awesome series and after about 60 percent into it, I simply lost interest in the characters.
