It was good, bit of a slow burn romantically speaking due to the trauma Avery had gone through. I enjoyed the guys and their interactions with Chloe.

I am really torn on this one. On one hand the chracters were very loveable, had good chemistry and it was just darn cute. The healing process and the interaction between the guys and the main character and her child were charming and lovely. Also loved the different povs of the characters.
One the other hand the book deals with a very diffucult topic that needed a lot more time and focus on. Also mixing that with spicyness didn't sit very well with me. It should also have had a few more content warnings as there was metioning of rape which further didn't really work with the plot of a spicy relationship. And the time frame was just redicilious. It takes years to heal from the kind of trauma this main character suffered no matter how strong you are not just a couple of months. And there was mentioning of lots of different abuse and trauma. There is also a lot of talk about violence from the domestic abuse angle but also from the other characters against the abuser. As I said needs more trigger warnings.
I liked that the abuser did not have a name and was only referred to as he/ him. The chapter from his point of view was not needed at all though.

While I enjoyed the premise of the story and I did finish the book, there were just too many issues to give it a rating any higher than this.
There were not only some spelling and continuity mistakes. But mostly the dialogue and actions of the characters read quite juvenile which I did not expect in a RH romance.
The dog and kid bumped the score up though, they were cute and wholesome.

Unbreak Me was a rough journey. Be ready to cry, to swoon, and to rage!
With a young mom escaping her abu$iv3 husband and living in her car with their 5 year old: be ready to shed some tears while reading!
The men who take Avery and Chloe in each have their own rough pasts and current issues to overcome leading to an incredible story of growth and overcoming trauma.
Chloe was such a great highlight to this story too! She made an epic sidekick for her mom and the guys both!

Wow, I loved this book it follows Avery and her escape and survival from her abuser with a little bit of cash to protect her daughter. As someone who comes from a family of DV, this hits home as it deals with the aftermath and side effect of the situation which I can relate to so much. I also appreciate that the author didn’t give the abuser a voice in the book which when you read it you will understand what this means.
The three ex-military men Ryker, Easton and Zack were so patient with Avery and her daughter Chloe throughout the book. Chloe is such a cute, fun and loving character in this who doesn’t understand the extent of what Avery went through but rips your heart out when she comments on things that the abuser did.
I highly recommend this book. Just it didn’t hit the five-star mark for me but was so close. I felt the last 80 pages were a little rushed. Felt the spice scenes were quite similar and the why choose element took away the realism toward the end for me. But this was a fantastic book that I can relate to.

"You could never ruin anything, baby. We all want you. We all want more with you.” He rests his forehead against mine. “You’re fired. Now stay and be with us all. Be ours, baby. Be our girl.”
This book broke me in so many ways.
I was crying in every chapter, there was always something that got me.
The author wrote in detail about Avery's journey. It's not a perfect happy ending, but it was growth.
It wasn't forced just because she found love and her family to protect her, but it was herself.
Everyone gets a POV in the book, but it didn't feel like it was balanced out.
Especially the three male characters, Ryker's POV was more, and there was more chemistry and relationship built between him and Avery.
I wanted more of Zack; we didn't see much of him.
Cass, we do have his chapter, but it always feels rushed, and I wasn't focused on his storyline until the end, which felt rushed.
What was disappointing was the suspense of the read.
The suspense plotline was high in the beginning, but in the middle, it felt like we forgot all about it, only the casual mention of it here and there.
Then suddenly, the suspense happened towards the ending, and it was wrapped up within seconds.
I wish there were more action on that.
Overall, it's a cute, emotional read.
Adorable moments and the humour is GOLD.
“Gonna kiss your mommy, little bear. That means you’re both mine now.”
