Stephanie’s Review:
I’d like to say Happy Anniversary to Author Nickie and her hubby Josh! I hope y’all have an awesome day. 🙂
I received a copy of this book from the author for an honest review.
A Tattered Love is a love story with lots of ups and downs. Riley Miller has had a troubled childhood. She’s moved to a new state to get away from her past and is trying to build a new life for herself when she meets Dustin at a get together at her best friends apartment. It’s like instant attraction. Riley isn’t looking for a relationship. She doesn’t have time for a man in her life. She has her dog Cooper and that’s enough.
Little did Riley know that Dustin would work his way into her life quickly and smoothly. Like all relationships they have their issues. The biggest being Dustin’s mom. She despises Riley because she’s not from the same wealth. Dustin’s mom outs both of their torrid pasts to each other in front of many guests at a party one night and shocks both of them.
I enjoyed reading this book. Actually, I read it in one day…probably in about 5 hours time. I was traveling with my family in the car so I had time to read. I couldn’t stop when I got home either. I was wanting to see how it all ended. Riley’s relationship with Dustin seemed to be doomed from the start. His mother tried EVERYTHING to keep them a part. As I was reading this story I thought of various ways Riley could get back at Dustin’s mom. They were good too! I despise a bully.
If you’re looking for a book that will be a smooth read but will entice you to keep on reading until the end A Tattered Love is perfect. I think you should check it out. I’ve included the buy link below. 4 Stars.
