Break It Down

Story: – 5 Stars
This was one of the most beautiful love stories I’ve read this year. Archer Hale is a gem. The man is so good. I love how Bree breaks down his walls & he brings happiness back to her life. I felt like the book did a good job with disability representation. Not only with Archer but the tie in with Bree’s dad. I adored this story. I was so damn happy while I read it. Such a perfect HEA.

This was a dual pov book but it isn’t alternating chapter style. We don’t get a whole lot of archers pov, we mostly get Bree’s. I didn’t mind though bc when we do get archer his pov it’s so good. This book isn’t really fast paced but it does flow very nicely. It didn’t have any weird lulls or spots where I felt confused or overwhelmed. 

Spice: – 3 Flames
A large part of this book is Bree & Archer learning each other. So obviously that includes some good sexy moments. Archer really comes into his own here & his bedroom skills learning Bree melted me. Don’t we all want a man who learns everything about us just from listening?!

Overall: – 5 Stars
This book was so hyped & I was so worried I was going to read it & be disappointed. & Honestly the opposite happened. I loved this book so much. It wrecked me & healed me & melted me. I swooned & but my lip & cried & laughed. It was just everything. One of the best contemporary romances I’ve read this year. Archer Hale is a man written by a woman for women bc he is perfection. If you didn’t fall in love with him right there with Bree you’re doing it wrong.
