Break Even
by Lisa DeJong
Meet River & Marley in this emotionally twisted – unconventional stand alone by Lisa DeJong
Break Even is NOW AVAILABLE!
Synopsis:
My story isn’t a love story … not the typical kind anyway.
As a lawyer, I’m used to discovery, but I never saw this one coming.
Every day, River gives me ten reasons to stay away, and then eleven reasons why I can’t. Our relationship was to remain strictly business, or at least I tried.
Four years of marriage, and everything with Cole has changed. I never knew two people who lived together could be so distant. But I’m not ready to give up on him.
One man wants to break me.
The other is just trying to get even.
Both are lying to me.
***This is a standalone contemporary romance (though a little unconventional and twisted!)
Excerpt:
My eyes never leave my guest who’s dressed in a crisp navy blue suit, white shirt with the top two buttons undone, and expensive brown leather belt and shoes—the kind Cole works so hard for. River carries the look with ease.
“I hope I didn’t interrupt,” he says, sauntering toward one of my guest chairs.
“You’re early.”
He shrugs, relaxing into his seat. “I was bored, and I’ve noticed you like your coffee, so I thought I could buy you a cup. It’s the least I can do since you’re going to have to put up with me all day.”
“Who said you could barge into my office?”
He smirks. Stupid dimple. “Your secretary was missing so I helped myself.” His eyes stare into mine—too long and far too intense. “I didn’t mean to interrupt your phone call with Mr. Mason, by the way.”
“Something tells me you’re not feeling all that guilty.”
“You’re right, but I did learn something about you.” His elbow rests on the arm of the chair, index finger brushing his chiseled jaw.
“What’s that?” I ask, unable to look away.
“You profess love with indifference.”
My mouth falls open before I realize it. I quickly recover, searching for my voice. “What do you know about love?”
“Enough,” he says simply.
Virginia’s Review:
Holy crap. What the hell happened here?? Talk about twists and turns. Talk about unexpected. Talk about jaw dropping.
Ok. Let me back up.
First of all, let me thank Lisa for asking me if I would like to read Break Even. It was an absolute honor to be asked and I am so thankful she thought of me.
Ok. Break Even. Let’s talk about this book. This book. THIS. BOOK. Oh my god. When I say Break Even was so good, I mean it was SOOOOOOO GOOD. I devoured it. Devoured. Could. Not. Put. It. Down.
The plot. Oh my god. Talk about creative and unique. You’re reading. You think you know what’s going on. You think you know what’s going to happen. And then HOLY SHIT. Lisa takes it to a place you never saw coming. The things that happen. The lies. The deception. Talk about unique and creative. Talk about jaw dropping.
And can we talk about River for just a minute? Flipping hell. That man is hot. HOT. Did I say hot? River is domineering, alluring, sexy, cocky and attractive. Holy hell, I thought my kindle was going to catch on fire. Some of the scenes. Wow.
Break Even is well written, fast paced, full of action and hot. You read it, you can’t put it down and you look back and say HOLY SHIT.
Go one click. Trust me. You WON’T be disappointed.
