He was the one.
The man she wanted with all her heart.
But it took years before Bree realized she deserved more then what Max was willing to give.
Max, was cocky and arrogant…
Too strong-headed to admit that he felt more for Bree than just lust.
Then it happened…
One devastating night, and it shook Max to his very core.
That’s when he began to see life in whole new way.
Now he’s left to sort through the mess that he’s created.
Will he be able to rise above it all and make amends with those he needs the most?
Or will the damage be irreversible and leave him longing for what could have been?
*JMAC'S REVIEW*
I think Max Parks is my new favorite Parks brother!!!
Scratch that…. HE IS MY FAVORITE.
Shattered By Love is the 3rd book in the Scarred
By Love Series, and while all books in the series can be read as a standalone,
it’s way better to read in order that way you are introduced to each character
properly.
So Shattered by Love is Bree and Max’s story. We knew from Broken By Love (book 2) that Max
and Bree were having issues. Mainly
because Max couldn’t commit. Max is your
typical bachelor. He works, lives with
his brother, and has an endless list of females who at any moment are waiting
to jump on him. Yes, he’s a sexy beast. Oh, I forgot to mention Max is a
firefighter. So boy is he ON FIRE!
“Bree rarely held a
smile when we were together. I was not
good to her; most of our nights ended with her crying or me slipping out of her
bed to go home. That thought made my stomach
hurt. She deserved more than me. I wasn’t good for her. I was the cocky son of a bitch that should
have just left her alone.” -Max
Anyways, after feeling like nothing but a late night booty
call, Bree is done. Bree keeps her mind
off Max by working at the center for kids.
She’s had a horrible past, and likes to do whatever she can to make sure
kids who have a tough life, get to experience happiness, even if it’s just for
a couple of hours at the center. Bree
also keeps her time occupied with school.
“I deserve to be loved
and cherished. I need to be
treasured. For once in my life, I want
someone to feel as if he can’t go on without me in his world. I want to be the center of someone else’s
world for a change.” -Bree
Max is the brother that all of his siblings lean on. He’s the one who solves all the problems, the
one who protects everyone. Max is a
manly man. He doesn’t “talk his feelings
out”. He doesn’t cry about things, he’s
tough. He doesn’t have time to be weak.
Not ever. Until he loses Bree.
“I didn’t like the
darkness that consumed me. The problem
was that I had no idea what I needed to do to get back to the light.”
After a fire that could have ended in deaths, Max vows to
change his ways in all aspect. He sort
of had a “come to Jesus” moment, which opened his eyes to the big picture in
life.
Max knew deep down, that he belonged to Bree. He just didn’t realize until it was almost
too late. Bree already loves Max, but
she’s not willing to be his doormat for him to walk all over. Bree finally came to the realization that she
deserves more than what Max was willing to give.
“I had to find a way
to convince Bree that this time would be different. Being without her was no longer an
option. I needed her, Bree was my
future.”
Both Bree and Max go through many ups and downs. CA has a beautiful way with words. I felt the heartache, pain, love, and all
other emotions both these characters were going through. I have to say that this whole series is one
of my favorite series. There are so many
emotions in all the books that I feel like I am in the story myself, going
through all the emotions with them.
It goes without saying, this was a bold 5 stars for me. If you are interested to see what happens
with Max and Bree, go one click Shattered By Love. I promise you won’t be disappointed!
