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.

“Something wonderful happened to me as I read this—I fell in love. Genuine, shattering, deep, heart-pounding love. Thank you, Kami Garcia, for Peyton and Owen. We need their story."
—Jennifer Niven, New York Times bestselling author of All the Bright Places and Holding Up the Universe
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.
REVIEW:
This was my first book by Kami Garcia and I don't regret picking it up for a second.
This book follows Peyton as she tries to deal with a life destroying accident that was caused by her ex boyfriend. She moves to Tennessee to stay with her uncle and cousins in order to focus on rehabing her knee and get away from her spiraling life. She wasn't expecting to met anybody let alone fall in love with somebody. Reed, her ex, is stalking her and getting into dangerous territory of completely losing it. Then there is Owen who has a condition and an wishy washy attitude at first. Owen tries to hide everything going on with him from everybody and just survive to the next day. But when he meets Peyton he may just change his mind. How deep into each other with Peyton and Owen fall? Will they both survive the changes thrust at them? How far would everybody go to protect each other? Does Reed finally get the help he needs? Does everybody finally believe Peyton?
First off, I really hope there is a second book. I would love to know more about Peyton and Owen or even the twins, and other characters. The people in this book were so realistic. I honestly couldn't stop reading and read it straight through in one sitting. This book kept me wondering what was going to happen next on every page. There were a lot of emotional back and forths with the characters fighting what they wanted. Every thing flowed smoothly and was paced perfectly.
If you have not read a book by Kami Garcia I highly recommend starting with this one. If you have read her books before then you already know that you should pick it up. I look forward to reading more of her books in the near future.
5 beautifully broken hearts (I mean stars)!!!
