Why read it?

1 author picked Breaking Him as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

This book broke me! Eli, a big, silent cowboy, and Abigail, a determined ranch owner come together in this book in explosive ways.

The love story is intense, filled with angst and a little bit of kink. Breaking Him is a book I will remember for a long time to come.
