How far would you go to protect the one you love?
Edge-of-the-seat suspense and zany wit are key elements of this comedy-mystery that combines crime and mayhem with romance and humor.
The terrors of Colin’s past are revealed and accepted by Natalie. Her doubts about letting him into her life are finally disbanded and replaced by a sense of security and commitment. But Natalie doesn’t know that Colin’s past hides more dark secrets unknown even to him.
When a delusional psychopath threatens Colin’s life, things quickly become complicated. Natalie’s stubborn character and desire to kick ass won’t let her step aside and allow the authorities to handle the danger. She gets herself tangled up with street hoodlums, befriends a Russian mobster’s high-maintenance girlfriend, and becomes expert at picking locks and hiding evidence.

*DISCLAIMERS*
May not be appropriate for readers under 18 years old. Not intended for prigs and sourpusses who get easily affronted**
**Warning: contains sexual situations, profanity, and a high dose of sarcasm. Oh, and the appletini is still the drink of choice.
This contemporary romantic comedy/mystery blends humor and sensuality with enough thriller elements to make you clutch the pages with terror. The offbeat characters and witty dialogue from Almost Matched are here to stay.

MY REVIEW
Writing Style:
The same addictive writing as the first book, you will
gobble Almost Broken Up in one sitting. You will curse your eyes for not being
able to read quicker.
My Opinion:
Just when I thought Natalie has done it all, she goes and
gets herself dragged into more crazy cahoots. This girl can get herself into
some interesting and unbelievable pediments! I thought only insane situations
happened to me and my best girlfriend, but it's safe to say Natalie and Ali
have the same issue. It's like the crazy just follows them around and it makes
for one hell of a hilarious read.
This book definitely takes on a more darkish tone. I found
myself terrified for Natalie multiple times and seriously felt my heart stop
due to the constant drama. Colin's story alone will grasp you in ways you could
never imagine and shatter your heart into millions of tiny pieces. So not only
will this book stop your damn heart it will give it a jump start too. (In
various ways of course, hehe)
The steam factor in this book has also been jolted up a bit.
You may want to have a portable fan nearby to help with the hot flashes. If no
fan is available, read near open windows. If it's hot where you live and
opening a window just won't help cool you down, opt for a squirt bottle filled
with icy water. Or hell maybe read in the bathroom so you can be near the
shower, because whew the sex scenes are sultry.
To read or not to read:
I SAY STOP WHATEVER YOUR DOING AND
BUY THIS BOOK THE DAY IT RELEASES. WHILE YOU’RE AT IT, PICK UP A COPY OF ALMOST
MATCHED RIGHT NOW, SO YOU WILL BE FULLY PREPARED.
