Not So Broken (Love Grows Series, # 1)Not So Broken by Renee Regent
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Not So Broken (Love Grows Series Book 1) by Renee Regent. This is a new to me author and I’ll definitely be back for more. From page one I knew I was in for an emotional journey with the main characters. Gibson and Sacha have a chemistry that leaps off the pages and grabs your attention. Each one having their own story to tell but making such harmony when they come together. The characters are complex and relatable, you forget you’re reading a story. The emotions are well written and you can feel what the author intended readers to feel at each moment. It’s well written and paced nicely. I’m giving this book a five star review and highly recommend it to everyone.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

The Progeny Assassin: A Tarnished Lands Story (Forgotten Woods Book 2) By P.A. Wikoff. These books are completely outside of my comfort zone and I’m so glad I took a chance on something new because this author writes a story that’s so vivid you feel a part of the journey the characters are on.
