My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Such a complex book! Book one in the Forever Us Series by Nivia Borell is Shattered Love. This book was written with such great poise and descriptive manner. This author really takes you on a journey of deep feeling and emotion. Shattered Love follows Bria du Mont on her 25th birthday and the encounters of the past. Bria was meant for Damien du Sky. From the time that they were little, they were tied by such a great bond. That bond being an immense forever kind of love. One that they thought was impenetrable. But on the night of her 18th birthday the unspeakable happens, which destroys everything they are about. Damien catches Bria in bed with another man. However, Bria doesn’t remember it happening at all. At that point, Bria goes into the hospital from a heart attack. Damien finds himself in a bottle and the chase to be the very best CEO. For the next 7 years Bria drowns herself in work and finds herself incapable of having any feelings whatsoever. So she starts planning to disappear so that she can no longer hurt the ones that she loves any longer. Like I said before, this book is complex and has so many facets to go along with it. It’s a book that you need to pay attention, otherwise you will miss something. Good news is that the writing envelops you and you can’t seem to pull yourself out because you keep wanting more and more. I can’t wait for the next in the series!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Shattered Love was an emotional 5 star read. This is Bria and Damien’s story.

We start with Bria having a birthday party. A party that will allow her to say goodbye. Without him she has nothing. No one can save someone who has no intention, will, or desire to be helped.

Damien had his heart broken by Bria, but he decided to come to her party anyway. He had to see her, something was different about this party. Seven years ago, I found the love of my life, my best friend, my soulmate, my future wife in bed with someone else.

We get a look at past and present told in both POV’s. Damien turned into a heartless playboy, no one knew who he was after everything happened. When we learn about some of the things that Bria went through, my heart broke for her. Don’t expect flowers and sunshine in this book, emotions run high. The secondary characters added a great element to the story, some were terrible. We end on a cliffhanger of wondering what choice Bria will make. I will be waiting impatiently for the next book in this series. This is my first read from Nivia Borell and I really enjoyed it and look forward to reading more from her. Well done on your debut.

Shattered Love (Forever Us) by Nivia Borell is a five star novel. As a debut novel, you never know what you will be getting into. I loved this book. The first book in the series makes for a page turning, painful memory of how Damien and Bria used to be and a look into what they could’ve been. As childhood best friends, they fell in love at a young age. They promised themselves to each other until that day. When Damien thinks Bria has broken his trust, he leaves and doesn’t look back. At least he doesn’t want to. They both go into a downward spiral of distrust and fear and they pay with individual crises that they have to work out for themselves. I am excited for book number 2!

My rating: 3 of 5 stars

This book 100% lives up to its title of Shattered Love. This is no easy, light hearted read but it’s raw and it’ll put your heart through the wringer.

Bria and Damien were childhood sweethearts. They thought they had their lives mapped out and it always included them being together. On Bria’s 18th birthday all of that shattered. Damien found her in bed with another man and she has no memory of it. No as adults, they are not whole. They are barely going through life. Can they make a mend or at least get closure to move on?

This book was written in several perspectives which I believe helped keep the story well balanced. I’m looking forward for more stories from Nivia Borell

Speechless and emotionally drained. This book left me heart broken and crying tears of joy several times throughout. The author does an absolutely beautiful job weaving this story together with characters the reader becomes invested in. This page turner grabbed hold of me in the first chapter and didn’t loose its grip until the final sentence. It is jam packed with every possible emotion. So buckle up for quite the journey – it’s worth every tear you find spilling across your cheeks.

Shattered Love The Forever Us Series Book One by Nivia Borell

Four Stars

I’m so sad after reading this story but a little hopeful as well. So much pain and depression. I was a little depressed while reading it. To me it was hard reading about Bria giving up. She had experienced a lot but she lost her fighting spirit. Having a love so strong was a blessing and a curse. This story will have your emotions so high and low that you may just give up on it. But don’t it gets better and worse. Damien was grieving and I understood his outburst. I would’ve acted different at certain moments but that’s because I’m a female and my instinct tells me to hurt when someone hurts me. If I could change one thing it would be how the author let you know if it was past or present. I got confused on a few flashbacks. Overall I wanted to hate this book because of the all consuming emotions it caused in me. But I really enjoyed it because I saw a side of love that pierces your heart so deep that one thing could break it.

Shattered Love: Book one of the “Forever us” series
By: Nivia Borell
5 out of 5 stars

The story Shattered Love: Book one of the “Forever us” series by Nivia Borell is a contemporary romance book. This is a story that is powerful, raw, and emotional. It is a book that had me upset or angry at times with what was happening and also with tears in my eyes. It is one of those books that when I finished all I can say is “Wow!” Once I started, I couldn’t bring myself to put it down until I had read the final page. The story of Bria du Mont and Damien du Sky is one that touched my heart. It also had my heart breaking. These two had a love that was undeniable. They were soulmates. That is until the day that Damien finds her in bed with another man. Bria and Damien both become workaholics. Bria has broken heart syndrome and becomes emotionally numb. Damien drowns himself in alcohol, anger, and jealousy. This is a book that had my emotions going on an up and down rollercoaster ride. Both Bria and Damien can’t seem to stay away from each other even after all that has happened. The past seems to always have a hold on them. What are the secrets that they uncover about the tragic night when their world was shattered? The dialogue/interactions between Bria, Damien, and the other characters in the story are at times intense. This is the first story in a series and I can’t wait to read the next one.

I enjoyed this book. This is a story about building a relationship for the majority of your life and how one simple choice could tear everything apart. Bria and Damien’s story is full of drama and emotions. We get to see how their relationship falls apart but we do get to see, feel their love for each other. Their story is told in the present but does go back to the past which in parts was hard to follow. Overall, I enjoyed their story and I highly recommend reading it.
