A review by bookaddict_fanatic
Broken Beats - An Illusion Series Novel by D. Kelly

5.0

This is one story I've been anticipating since Just an Illusion EP and yet was afraid to read because I knew it would gut me and bring me to my knees. From the first page I was drawn in to the story and chapter after chapter I was consumed and held captive by one helluva emotional ride that I couldn't put it down. Darren is the gorgeous drummer from Bastards and Dangerous, single father to Cadence and a man trying to survive the heartache of losing the love of his life until he meets the one woman who changes everything. Haddie is a beautiful curvacious woman who lost her fiancé in a tragic accident that almost took her life as well, now she's ready to move on. These two fractured souls were brought together by tragedy, yet bound by an undeniable desire to be happy and to find love again. If you're afraid this book will break your heart.... I'm here to tell you it will. This book had me in tears which I've come to expect when reading any book from the Just an Illusion series. I cried, I laughed, I smiled and then cried some more but I wouldn't have it any other way. This was one emotional, beautiful read about finding your second chance at love and a story that will stay with you long after you're done. This was the perfect ending to Darren's story and one that left me wanting more only because I didn't want it to end!
