A Masterpiece Of Our Love (The Masterpiece Trilogy Book 1) Kindle Edition

by Nikki Lynn Barrett (Author), Robert Barrett (Editor) Format: Kindle Edition
4.1 out of 5 stars 403 ratings
The first in a contemporary romance with mystery elements trilogy!

Two Lives Torn by tragedy.

Eight-year-old Becca and twelve-year-old Hunter cling to each other and life after surviving a plane crash which stole their families.

Two Souls Seeking Love.

Each year, from the time she was old enough to travel on her own, Becca met up with Hunter on the island that altered their lives forever.

Until he stopped showing.

Her constant. Her link to the past. Gone in the blink of an eye.

Two Lives Bound by Secret.

Suffering more heartbreak, Hunter returns to the one place he’s always sought comfort, the island where he and Becca met. It was the place that stole from him, and in the same instance gave to him. He hasn't been back or spoken to Becca in four years.

Though he’s sure she must hate him for disappearing, Hunter discovers the girl gone, now a woman in her place. Hunter is determined to prove to Becca he isn’t the same twelve-year-old boy of yesteryear.

But someone isn't happy about their reunion...

Strange things begin happening. Letters start showing up in their hotel rooms and at home with cryptic messages.

Two Broken Hearts Heal as One.

With the mystery unsolved, Hunter convinces Becca to spend the remainder of the summer back home with him, both for safety and to give them a chance to discover the adults they’ve now become.

Will love get a chance to blossom, or will the past come back and tear the masterpiece of their love apart once and for all?

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

No matter where she goes, USA Today Bestselling author Nikki Lynn Barrett hears voices in her head. Instead of calling her crazy and locking her up, her family realizes it's just a product of being an author and allows her to write the stories so that the voices shut up.

But they don't. And probably never will. There's no need to lock her up, Nikki knows she'll never escape the voices, not until each and every last story is written. And for every story she writes, about ten or more ideas pop up.

When she isn't slaving away at her computer writing books that will probably make you cry and keep you in suspense, Nikki plots to take over the world one book at a time. What? It's a sickness. One she can't escape!

Books aren't her only addiction, though. Nikki can be found making up parodies to drive her son crazy, and bantering back and forth with her husband, who somehow manages to steal her away from the fictional world she lives in all the time.

Nikki lives in Arizona with her husband and son, where she can be found using every creativity outlet she can find through music, photography, handcrafted things, and random interests that she may pick up from time to time.

    It was an interesting story, not your usual romance, but I found that I couldn't put it down once I started. I am looking forward to reading the rest of the trilogy and I want to see how life pans out for the two main characters.

    Was gifted a copy by the author for an honest review.

    A captivating story, well written and flows well. A bond that cannot be broken due to past circumstances. I gave this book a 3 star rating purely because the author has extended this story into another book for ending and I hate that

    "I received a free copy of this book to read and review for Wicked Reads."

    This is the first of a series, and I am anxiously awaiting the next installment! I liked the basis for the story, and as things develop, the mystery reader in me is starting to have moments of inspiration as to what is going on ... But I have a while to wait until I can be sure. The characters are interesting as they are not the oft expected alpha male and weak woman - even though he saved her life and she has ongoing issues due to the crash. She is by turn very strong and his life has been breaking down.

    Clever stuff, now just need the next one ...

    This novel grabbed me from the very beginning with its lovely, lively characters and the tragedy they had to face.
    Becca and Hunter, more than friends, part of each other, inseparable parts. Until they grow up. Then it all must to change, but how will they face those changes?
    This is a beautiful story of friendship and love, but also a mystery, character-driven but also plot-driven story. A great read!

    Becca and Hunter. They survived a plane crash. With no family left, and young, they had no one but each other.

    They made a pact that each year they would return to the Island they remember where they were survivors which held a special meaning for them. This is what happened, until one year Hunter didn't show. Can you imagine the devastation of emotions that must have gone through Becca? He is her only link to the horrific past they went through together. You see, Becca was injured in the plane crash, and Hunter cared for her.

    The thing is Hunter had been showing symptoms of PTSD. Becca stood by him though through all of this, where can he be?

    Why didn't Hunter return to the Island? Why do did they regularly agree to meet on the Island if all the horrific memories come back? what use is that?

    There is a mystery in this story, it keeps you hanging in there. And although this book doesn't end in one of those aweful cliffhangers, it still has the 'gasping' factor at the end wanting Nikki Lynn Barrett to hurry up and get book 2 done!

    I so wish for a happy ending for these two, but I also need some questions answered, so yes, this author has done her job well......she's kept me hanging.

    I was lucky to get my complimentary copy from Aspendawn Books and it was a pleasure to read and review.(

    Every year Rebecca Lange returns to a special island close to where her life changed. For the past 4 years her close friends Hunter Beckman has not returned and Rebecca is not sure that she will be coming back again.

    Yet this year Hunter returns and the two have realized that much has changed in their lives. But as they begin to look towards the future there is someone from the past who is trying to bring it back to them and they are wondering if someone else was there that night.

    As the two battle ghosts from their pasts Becca realizes that Hunter is holding some secrets of his own that threaten all of the trust that the two of them have built. Will Hunter confront the demons of his past and realize he can't do it on his own or will it cost him everything he has ever loved?

    Wow - this book was so good and dealt with so many emotions! I can't imagine what Becca and Hunter went through as kids and can completely understand any issues that they currently have. Their friendship is so solid as they both understand what the other has gone through and gain strength from the other. Yet Hunter is trying to do too much on his own which is leading to his issues.

    The mystery in this book is intense and it's going to be a tough next book knowing that there is still that mystery out there. Hunter and Becca have to be diligent in their safety and I'm scared to see what the author has in store for them.

    What hurt the most was listening to Becca discuss her childhood with her grandparents that didn't want her and how they pushed Vince on her. It's pretty sad what she endured with them not believing in her.

    Hunter worked so hard to achieve what he has but you can tell that he has been missing something/someone. He also doesn't like to open up to people and it definitely had me worried at a few spots during the book. I'm hoping he gets the help he can in the next book!

    This book was great and I can't wait for the next one!!

    A Masterpiece of Our Love (The Masterpiece Trilogy Book 1) by Nikki Lynn Barrett
    This is a wonderful wrote story of Becca and Hunter. Becca was only 8 years old and Hunter only 12 years old. Their lives were changed totally that day when the plane crash happened and stole their families. They were all that was left and they were hurt, in more ways than one. Becca had several severe injuries and Hunter suffered too. Could they be found and could they forever live with their lives hurt by the tragedy?
    They met up several years later at the island that altered their lives. Then they met up each year but then there was a 4-year break and although she hadn’t heard from Hunter she went as usual and he did come and found her.
    There is a mystery to be solved and this book only covers parts of that mystery. Someone is not happy that they are back together. Hunter decides that Becca should come stay with him for the rest of the summer. He would feel together they were safer but it was also to uncover that pull they had for each other.
    In those 4 years Hunter had married, become a father, and divorced. He was able to concur his fears and he became a pilot and had no issues till one day his memory of the crash forced him to have a very bumpy landing. He was battling his ex-wife for custody of their little girl. He suffered nightmares and kept so many things closed in himself. Not wanting to share much and let people in at all.
    Becca took to the canvas and painted what she saw in her head. She never thought they were that good and when Hunter suggested she should think about selling them she thought no way would anyone want them. But he had several scattered through his house. Becca had suffered a time where the tragedy made her not able to talk, plus she endured brain trauma and surgery on her leg. Part of the plane lodged in her leg and had made it necessary to repair it. She was in a wheelchair for a time and the doctors nor her grandparents ever thought she would walk again. However, Becca was stronger than they gave her credit for.

    4.0 out of 5 stars Becca and Hunter share so much more than a love story, they share a traumatic past
    Reviewed in the United States on 24 August 2016

    This book kicks off a suspenseful trilogy that delivers us the story of Becca and Hunter and details everything they've been through and why.

    Becca and Hunter share so much more than a love story, they share a traumatic past, they share a connection that goes further than friends or even lovers. AT the heart of their connection though are secrets and hidden truths. But the heart wants what it wants, and these two want nothing more than work it all out and become one.

    Hunter stayed away, removing himself from Becca's life for his own reasons, staying away from the one place they shared, their ritual. But after suffering heartache he's back, only the Becca he finds isn't the girl he left behind. Determined to rekindle their friendship and prove that he's changed since he left.

    But someone isn't happy about their reunion, someone doesn't want them together, there are secrets lingering, secrets someone doesn't want to come out. With danger lurking and memories hidden, Hunter wants Becca with him; wants to solve the mystery and discover what someone doesn't want him to know.

    A masterpiece of our Love is a great start to the mystery, its full of hints and twists and tiny clues that give you just enough to keep your mind guessing, but also keep you hooked looking for answers to the many questions you keep thinking of. But you also start falling for these two people, feeling for them on an emotional level for all they have endured and for all that's to to come. You can see their connection, plain as day, but there are hurdles and walls put up to protect themselves as well.

    Nikki Lynn Barrett brings to life these two people and weaves their story into a large mystery that is gripping and exciting but also tugs on your heart strings as you ache for them to find a way to not only solve everything but work it all out together. Each page brings something new to the table, whether a memory, a question, a twist, or a tender moment that makes you feel the love and affection between these two people who have been apart.

Someoe out there doesn’t want this couple together and has plans that can separate them forever. Will Becca and Hunter make it out alive and still be toghter? Or will their new danger keep them a part?

    First let me say the author had a great premise for this book. Two people survive a plane crash that kills their families. They survive and become friends who meet up every year, except for the last 4 years. I just can't agree with how it was carried out. #1- stop with the exclamation marks. No one talks this way in real life. No one exclaims that many sentences. That was really annoying. We can read and feel the happy/giddy vibes of characters without all the !!!! #2- most of the book was too mushy.The back and forth with the main characters was too much...of everything. Overkill on this. #3- you should have started with a prologue of the crash. Instead you start out with their lives already in progress and we get glimpses of the crash in dream sequences scattered throughout. They've been meeting each other for 20 years and we are thrown into the end of it. I would have rather had the crash prologue, followed by a chapter or two of their lives leading up to this last meeting on the island. It's hard to read a buildup to their relationship when soooo much has already happened to them and you are constantly having to expand on everything. I get that 20 years is hard to fit into a chapter or two, but we don't need every single detail of that time. Just enough to give us a better understanding of the characters.
