BROKEN BEAUTIFUL HEARTS Synopsis:
From #1 New York Times–bestselling author Kami Garcia comes a red-hot romance that will break your heart and put it back together again.
Her heart has to break before it can open.
When star soccer player Peyton Rios receives an offer from her first-choice college, senior year starts off exactly as planned. But when Peyton uncovers her boyfriend’s dark secret, she confronts him—and finds herself falling down a flight of stairs. Peyton’s knee—and maybe her dream of going pro—is shattered. Everyone is talking: Was she pushed, or did she fall? Peyton knows the truth, even if no one believes her.
He has to let someone in before it’s too late.
With her future on the line, Peyton goes to stay with her uncle in a small Tennessee town to focus on her recovery. Dating is the last thing on her mind—until she meets sweet, sexy Owen Law.
But Peyton doesn’t trust her heart, especially when she senses that Owen is hiding something. When their secrets are finally exposed, Peyton has to decide if love is worth fighting for.
Excerpt:
This is not how I envisioned celebrating my big news. I
reach for my phone to check the time, wondering if it’s too early to head home.
But it isn’t in my pocket. Nothing but lip balm, house keys, and Reed’s car
keys. God forbid he carry anything except his phone. I pat down my coat. “I
lost my phone.”
“It’s probably in the car, like the last three times you
lost it. I need to run to the bathroom and then I’ll help you find it,” Tess
says.
The line for the bathroom is six people deep. I can’t wait
that long. “All my voice mails are on it.”
Tess knows that by all
I really mean one—the last
message from my dad. It’s the reason I’ve had the same phone for a year and a
half, even though it barely holds a charge.
“I bet it’s in the car,” she says. “Don’t worry.”
“I’m just going to run out and check.” I leave through the
back door.
Outside, a stone retaining wall snakes down the hill beside
the house. The wall separates a paved footpath from the long driveway. My arm
scrapes against the rock as I rush toward the steps at the end of the walk- way
that lead down to the street.
Reed parked his car across from the steps, and I can’t get
it unlocked fast enough. I search for my phone in the front seat and between
the crevices of the center console.
Nothing.
Think. Retrace your
steps.
When we got in Reed’s car I tossed my jacket in the back
seat. My phone could’ve fallen out of the pocket. I lean between the front
seats and grope around.
Come on. Please be
here.
What if it’s not?
My chest tightens. I can’t lose Dad’s message.
Reed’s car is full of junk—hand wraps, sparring pads, sweaty
T-shirts, and empty energy drinks. His smelly gym bag is open on the floor. I
dig through it until my fingers hit something rectangular and smooth.
A box.
I take it out of the bag, expecting a cheap plastic box like
one Reed uses as a first aid kit. But this box is glossy black cardboard, like
a gift box.
Reed doesn’t do surprises, and he thinks presents are a
waste of money. The only gift he has given me in the seven months we’ve been
together was for my birthday. And Tess and Mrs. Michaels don’t have birthdays
anytime soon.
My stomach bottoms out.
All the time he’s been spending at the gym . . . What if
Reed hasn’t been there every night?
Things have been off between us for a while and I’m not a
fan of his recent mood swings, but I’d never
cheat on him. That doesn’t mean he wouldn’t.
The box doesn’t have a store name or logo printed on it, and
it’s a weird size—too big for a bracelet and too deep for a necklace. A watch,
maybe?
I open the lid.
Beautiful Broken Hearts by Kami Garcia was gorgeous you guys. This was the first book I've read by this author and she blew me away.
Peyton and Owen.. You guys. I haven't found characters I have loved this much in a long time. I adored Owen. He was strong, sweet but didn't take shit from anyone. His secret, it broke my heart.
Peyton is running, more like limping away from a painful past. To continue her healing journey she moves in with her Uncle, which by the way is a total badass. Her cousins are a hoot too. I loved the secondary characters in this book. Some of my favorites.
This is definitely a younger character story but that didn't take away from the content. It was sad and scary all in it's own right. The story was chalked full of emotions and to broke my heart and put it back together again. This book made you believe in the good.
Kami Garcia wrote such a pivotal and moving story. She showed that your dreams can be taken from you and only you have the power to get them back. She showed love can be found in the most inopportune times and she showed that not everything and everyone is always what they seem.
So well written. This book will stick with me for a long time to come. 5 beautiful broken stars!
