Break Me

Wow I did not expect anything like this before, it was a chilling read (not like horror chills) more like “omg what's gonna happen” the suspense was putting me on the edge on wanting to know more! It started out light-hearted to very dark mysterious secrets. There were funny witty banters with the characters with another but when things got serious, it made me have goosebumps and wondering what's going on. The romance was also to my liking, I really rooted for the obvious couple! I do have to say I wish the ending was different but it ended really well on how it should. I do want to say I thought some parts were cut short where I thought maybe could've been longer? Overall amazing book with a lesson or two to be learned and a very fun entertainment journey it was!!

With Winter going through some of the changes, I could empathize with her on some levels and felt myself in her shoes..I want mention there are quite a few trigger warnings; drug abuse and bullying. There's more to the warnings but that's spoiling the book

Winter wants a new start. A new town, a new high school, and a new chance to make friends is right in front of her. Will her need to be something different lead her down the wrong path?

Winter has already come back from the dead end path. She took it after her father died. Boys, drugs, alcohol, and partying destroyed everything she had going for her. Now she is recovering from yet another familial death. Yet this death brings her mother and her new opportunities: a chance to start over.

Winter makes her first friend on her first jaunt out of the house. Success! Her first day in high school the cool clique notices her and invites her to lunch. Success! Unfortunately the two sets of friends do not get along and soon she is caught in the crossfire of school dynamics and friendship codes.

Then something far more sinister traps her in its web.

I had no clue where Naomi Martin where taking me in Break Me (B081Q1HRKJ, 2019) the first book in her “Sapphire Bay High” series, but now she can take me anywhere she wants to.

Holy sugar, this story is so good. When you are reading it you think that all of the drama of Winter's life is in the past - so NOT. Crazy. Friendship drama and you get it and you are not sure who to side with. Then guy drama and once again, I do not know if I would not have done exactly what Winter does but...seriously damn (laugh). The scene just makes me laugh out loud.

Then the story it takes us to...this is where the holy sugar comes in. The story gets better. Martin is a Queen at springing stuff on you. I love you. This was awesome. I read this book in one sitting because “hello could not put it down”.

So let's recap: drama, humor, maybe some slapping going on, I think I forgot to mention the really hot sex, and a mystery. Oh yeah, you totally need to read this. ✶✶✶✶✶
