#52: Unbroken by Maya Banks

Unbroken is a trilogy by Maya Banks which details the the love stories of three friends--Jake, Luke, and Wes.  These are Texas men, two are ex-pro football players and one is a police officer.  They are not prone to falling in love, yet during this trilogy, all three find themselves falling head over heels for a woman.  And admitting that their lives were never better! :) 

The stories connect from one to the other and all of the characters find themselves woven into each other's stories, which I liked because the stories seem to never end until the very last page, and even them we got an epilogue.  They are very quick stories to read--I read the entire trilogy yesterday while Rob watched football.  I this this would be a perfect book to read on the beach.  Light and easy to follow.  

One word of caution, the second story in the trilogy is a bit steamy.  If you are in any way bothered by explicit adult scenes, you might want to skip this book, or at least skip the second story.  I could feel myself blushing at times and peering over my shoulder to make sure the girls couldn't see what I was reading.  It's no Not Fifty Shades of Grey, but it's on the same track. 

Despite that, it is a wonderful series of love stories that remind us that sometimes love, real love, can be found right under our noses, if we just take a moment to look.   

Happy reading everyone!

P.S.  I hit 52 and still have the entire month of December to read! I wonder what my final total will be for this year!
