Breakaway Hearts by Nikki Lawson
3.0
Content Warnings: sexual content, toxic relationships, fatphobia, body shaming, emotional abuse, misogyny, and mention of death of a parent.
I love the concept of fake dating between best friends that forces them to unravel their complicated feelings for each other but this just felt so drawn out. Have you ever read a romance book where there are so many spicy scenes that they no longer hit because there's just so many? Idk maybe that's a me thing but sometimes I just want to know more about how the relationship is going to develop emotional than sexually 🤷🏽♀️
The timing seemed a bit off as well. Some chapters ended in a way that felt the next chapter should have immediately picked right up after but the author chose to jump days or a week and there were other times where the entire days was written out but a lot of it seemed like unnecessarily information...
