Gabe Spencer
is an ex-Navy SEAL and LOST founder who is turned inside out when in walks Eve
Gray, a woman who has no memory of her past and is a dead ringer for victims of
a deadly serial killer, named Lady Killer. When Eve woke in the hospital, it
was with a blank slate. With no memory of her past and a face she only
recognized in the paper, she turns to the LOST crew to help her piece together
the truth and find her life again. But as Gabe and Eve work together, their
chemistry is off the charts and their desire becomes explosive. But even as
these two fight their attraction and solve the mystery that is Eve, a killer
stalks them determined to make sure Eve stays dead this time around.
This was one
of the first of this author’s romantic suspense books I have read from this
author and I fell in love with the LOST crew right off the bat. The author does
an admirable job in capturing the different personalities that make up the LOST
crew and it melded perfectly together. There was the right amount of
mystery/suspense, sexual tension and I was alongside Gabe and Eve as they tried
to figure out who Eve really was and who the killer was. The writing was tight
and the story flowed smoothly. What I really enjoyed was the dynamics between
the lost crew. They are each different people with different specialties and I
loved how they worked together to help Eve find her past. The author does a
great job in capturing each character’s personalities and vulnerabilities
perfectly. I felt like I ‘knew’ these wonderful people intimately. The author
really does a marvelous job in capturing each character, be it main ones or
secondary ones, and brings them to life amid the pages of BROKEN.
What was
paired up with the Gabe and Eve romance was the mystery behind Eve. Who she
was, what she survived, why she survived and more played perfectly amid the
pages and set off the romance between Gabe and Eve perfectly. The characters are what make this book so
enjoyable. We got Eve’s determination to solve who she is, Gabe’s cynical view
that Eve is nothing more than a con artist and a killer determined to make Eve
silent, once and for all. All those
variables play perfectly in BROKEN and I, for one, can not wait to see what
else is in store for the LOST crew as they solve riddles and find the ones that
are lost. If you enjoy a highly charged, thriller with some twists that will
keep you in suspense, then pick up BROKEN and get ready to fight
alongside Gabe, Eve and the rest of the cast as they try to stay one step ahead
of a killer and not die in the process.
