Ebook Breakaway A friends to lovers romance edition by Heather M Orgeron Edee Fallon Romance eBooks
I fell in love with my best friend but he didn't love me back.
Sounds like a cheesy line from a country song, right? Too bad it's the story of my life.
I thought that I’d moved on, swore he was the one.
But that facade began to fade in the flash of a half-carat diamond ring.
Now years later, here I am, running back to the boy who broke my adolescent heart, hoping that just maybe, he’ll be the one to piece it back together.
....
I fell in love with my best friend while she fell in love with him.
Ironically, it was my own damn fault. I practically served her up on a silver platter.
So I turned to my second love, basketball, moving across the country to escape.
For years, I’ve been sitting on the sidelines watching, waiting.
Now it's time to make my move.
No more fouling out.
This time, I'm going to score.
Ebook Breakaway A friends to lovers romance edition by Heather M Orgeron Edee Fallon Romance eBooks
"With every book that Ms. Orgeron writes my love for her words grows and grows and solidifies why she's an automatic one-click author for me. This book has it all, teen angst, first loves, second chances, heartbreak, steam up the windows sex and a never ending love.
Colton and Allie literally grew up together and the bond they have is unbreakable...or is it? It's clear these two are meant to be together, however, their reluctance in admitting that to each other keeps them apart and actually creates a divide in their relationship for a while. Colt goes to California and leaves Allie behind...and even with the miles that separate them, the draw is still there.
I fell hook line and sinker for their love story. Ms. Orgeron has the ability to make me laugh and cry at the same time. Her one liners are outrageously funny. There's a particular scene when Allie comes to visit Colt after a couple of years apart and his reaction had me snort laughing....
"Alex had boobs? Little ones but boobs. That was the moment it truly hit me that Alex was a girl. A real girl with boobs."
Them getting together is not a slam dunk that's for sure. There are outsiders that aren't, how should I say this, nice. Not nice at all. There's so many other words I could use for some of these people, but I'll just leave it at that! The heat that Allie and Colt have for each other is nearly palpable. But Colt doesn't want to rush things and achingly makes Allie wait. She's not completely on board with this plan either. I loved how he wouldn't give in to her either. The anticipation that's being built between them is achingly hot....
"His finger moved to the elastic at my bikini line, teasing, and I nearly came on contact. The rush of the ride, the thrill of his touch. I was a live wire ready to burst into flames."
Let's just say that both of them are on fire as Colt literally woos Allie and makes her fall that much harder for him. However, we're back to the pesky details of outsiders interfering and when things change dramatically for Allie, Colt doesn't understand and things are said and done that could put their love at risk.
Needless to say I could go on and on about how much I loved this couple, and this story that drew me in with the hilarity, poignancy and beauty of their love. There are laugh out loud moments that sometimes had tears coming to my eyes. If you're looking for a book that will have you laughing out loud and rooting for a couple hard to get out of their own way to find their forever love, then Breakaway is the book you need to read!!!"

Breakaway A friends to lovers romance edition by Heather M Orgeron Edee Fallon Romance eBooks Reviews
- I hate romance novels where the main characters refer to all of the other female characters as whores, sluts, and skanks repeatedly without ever giving it a break. It’s seriously sexist, first of all. Secondly, what’s wrong with women enjoying their sexuality? It’s fine for the guys but not for the girls? I can’t stand when authors make the heroine a little saint and the hero sleeps with everyone in sight which makes him a stud but the women he’s sleeping with sluts. It’s just wrong.
There’s many aspects of this story that bothered me but one big one is that the heroine (Alex) has no female friends. She even goes as far to say that she’s glad she doesn’t. This is psychologically worrisome and emotionally unhealthy. I think any psychologist would agree. Both of the main characters just need intensive therapy. It’s hard to root for them when they’re so immature and their values are so questionable.
This book really pits women against each other and uses that tired blondes vs brunettes thing. Yawn.
I also didn’t like how there was really no reason for the H/h not to be together but it just kept dragging on just to have a story.
There was another point in the story where Alex went on a date and didn’t want to eat so she didn’t look like a “heifer.†I mean, a statement like that is just so irresponsible and damaging on so many levels. Where’s the empowerment here?
The beginning of the book holds promise but then it just descends into this trashy, sexist, tedious hole that I really had trouble getting all the way through. - LOVE.
This four letter word is a common thread throughout Breakaway. Colton and Alexis have been best friends since the day they were born. Throughout their lives, Colton and Allie have been there for each other but each harbored a secret. A secret love that went beyond the lines of friendship.
Heather Orgeron has given us the perfect friends to lovers story full of love and passion from all angles. Through her storytelling, you are pulled into the families of Colton and Allie and thrust into their angst and young love. I adored each of the characters individually but when they were together, the undeniable connection oozed from the pages.
I found myself crushing on Colton. His love and commitment to Allie never faltered, it was his damn pigheadedness that kept them apart. And Allie, sweet Allie. Her lingering self-doubt that she was enough was almost her undoing. But, with all wonderful love stories, the came together as they were meant to, as their hearts were prepared for, and when the timing was right.
Breakaway has catapulted to one of my top reads of 2017. - Boy (Colton) and girl (Alexis) love each other after spending their entire lives together but aren’t smart enough to tell each other. Girl is almost engaged to another, that previous boy set her up with, so boy disappears to lick his wounds before finally pulling his head out. All the trappings of a predictable friends to lovers romance.
One of my favorite tropes but this book just didn’t do it for me. I didn’t connect with either of the characters, especially Alexis because she came off as overly immature and unlikeable. Colton would have been more likeable if he’d had just a bit of a backbone. The story is told in the first person from both Alexis and Coltons points of view.
Biggest complaint? There is some serious s—t shaming going on with the heroine referring to herself as a wh—e, others as s—ts, and the whole “cross dresser†scene while it may seem humorous, the way it was presented was pretty messy.
This is my first read by this author and while I wouldn’t pick this one up again, I would pick up her other titles. - With every book that Ms. Orgeron writes my love for her words grows and grows and solidifies why she's an automatic one-click author for me. This book has it all, teen angst, first loves, second chances, heartbreak, steam up the windows sex and a never ending love.
