The Ground Rules Rewritten (The Rule Breakers #2)
by Roya Carmen
Blurb
Five simple rules. And it was very simple…until it wasn’t.
It could have been much worse. We weren’t thinking straight and had put everything on the line – risking our marriages. So when Weston ended the arrangement, it was for the best – for all of us. But I was still heartbroken. I thought I’d shatter into a million pieces. I didn’t, I survived. Not only did I survive, I came out stronger and ready to move on with my life.
But then…
Weston reaches out to me. With a few soft words, a gentle touch and a lingering gaze, he crumbles all my efforts.
Neither Gabe nor I want to start this again, and we are determined to fight the temptation. But Weston and Bridget are not taking no for an answer, and the pull between all of us is still so strong.
I tell myself I can handle it this time. This time, I am in the driver’s seat. This time, I am rewriting the ground rules.

4.5 Stars
This is the second book in The Rule Breakers trilogy and boy what a second book it was! This is a fantastic continuation to the series and is just as good as the first if not better.
I had to go back and re read my review for book one because the way Roya Carmen writes these characters and their connection is amazing. The characters that I loved in the first book I actually started to dislike, and other characters I did not expect to feel anything for, I really was in their corner hoping that things would work out for them. I particularly liked the fact that Roya wrote more about Weston in this book and I feel that we really got to know him better in this book.
Now in the first book I mentioned that for a trilogy the ending was very good and there was no huge cliff hanger. This book had the biggest cliffy ever and I have to say it, it probably has been the one of the most frustrating ends to a book I've read in a long time! I felt every emotion possible during reading this book, especially towards the end. If an author can make me feel that deeply about the characters and the story that tells me a lot and it's also a book I will talk about for a long time.
This whole series is refreshingly different, fantastically written and I for one can not wait to see how this ends now. Bring on book 3!

Romance writer, mom, book junkie. I have been writing for over ten years, finding my passion for romance in 2008. When I'm not spending time with my family, I enjoy reading, painting, and writing - there is nothing I enjoy more than sitting down at my laptop and making up my own stories - and if those stories should include beautiful men, a little romance, and a few steamy scenes, all the better!
