Broken by Lies by Rebecca Shea
5.0
Aaaaannnnnd……my girl crush continues! Rebecca has done it again. Her writing is the perfect combination of sexy, funny, sassy, emotional, suspenseful and loving. Broken by Lies is the first in her new series Bound and Broken and she does not disappoint. It grabs you from the first page and not only does it not let you go, it sucks you in so far that you're so immersed in the story that you don't even want to get out. Emelia loses the only person she has and leaves her home for Phoenix, AZ. A chance meeting with Alex turns her world upside down. There's finally someone in her life who wants to protect and take care of her. Alex is instantly drawn to her and for the first time in his life he wants more. He wants love. He wants happiness and he wants a new life. They fall hard and they fall fast. Lies, deception, fear, secrets and love. Love. Will Emelia recover from Alex? Will Alex let Emelia into his heart? How many lies are too many? How much deception is too much? What an amazing start to a new series! I can't wait for more!
She's still every bit the stunning woman I remember from last night, but today, she is a beautiful broken girl that I need to help.
"You're important to me, Emilia."
"I've never been important to anyone before."
"I don't need pity kisses. You felt sorry for me. I could see it in your eyes. Don't feel sorry for me." My voice is tense, clipped. Before I can register what's happening, he has me pressed against the wall in the hallway, his lips on mine again. This time, they're needy - hungry.
"I've never felt anything so good in my life, Emilia." She's wet and warm and soft, but it's more than sex, it's more than a mass of bodies.
