Broken Scars by J.M. Walker

3.0

It was really hard for me to get on board with this book. Although it appears the two main characters really love one another deep down, the violence in the beginning (ie the heroine is smashed into a stall wall in a bathroom because he is mad to see her out to dinner with an ex) turned me off. I understood it was going to have a lot of darkness given the topic, but I just couldn't get past how he seemed abusive and toxic in the beginning and she just breezed over that and fell for him anyway. I just have a problem with that personally as a storyline... However I did find the writing very well done and the story kept me interested. I just couldn't get on board with the romance aspect.
