I had been eagerly anticipating the release of this book after reading about the upcoming series online as I’m a huge fan of Aria Grace. I was intrigued by the premise of the book; a cross genre series of mostly m/m romance but with some m/f scenes as well.
Break Me Like A Promise introduces us to the owners and employees of Sculpt, a fitness centre based in downtown Cleveland. Book 1 focuses on brothers Brent and Tad Thomas, the owners of the business; Brent is single and gay while Tad is happily married with two small children. You quickly learn that the gym is more than a business to the brothers and that they view their employees as a family. Family needs protected and in an effort to draw more business to the gym they hire an advertising agency to help promote their services.
Yet, all is not as it seems in the gym. There are those who threaten the very livelihood of the brothers and put all they have worked for in jeopardy. When tragedy strikes Tad, both brothers have to reassess where their priorities lie.
Told over multiple POV; I loved the different insights into each character. Some were in earnest and some just masked their deceit and hidden agendas. I really felt Tad’s pain and was a bit giddy myself at Brent’s blossoming romance.
One of my favourite characters was Luke; the advertising exec and Brent’s love interest. I felt he was a bit lost at the beginning of the book and just trying to find where he fit in and a place to belong. It’s amazing what you find when you least expect it. Luke is there for Brent when he needs someone the most. The chemistry between the two of them is instantaneous and their first time together……HOT!!!
Be prepared for a suspense filled ending where one loathsome character gets their comeuppance. It’s not a conventional HEA; more a bye for now! Roll on April and the release of Trust Me Like a Promise (Book Two).
This is the first collaboration by Aria and Kyan and long may it continue!!
