When I first read the blurb of Break You, I was really intrigued about this story! Bully romance is a trope I’m hooked to and this one sounded somewhat dark and intense! M.V. Ellis twisted an enigmatic story with hints of darkness with a couple sharing off the charts hot chemistry as her main protagonists.
When I was first introduced to Rocky, I was amazed by the girl! Seriously, she’s so badass and and doesn’t shy away from speaking her mind and making some situations extremely amusing and engaging. When she first meets Xavier, he’s a true jerk like every rich boy at Heathcote University and she puts him in his place with her fierce words. From there, every single one of their interaction leaks animosity, but also pure attraction!
Under all her bravado though, Rocky has a more fragile side she keeps hidden to others. She didn’t have a great upbringing, but always persevered with her dreams of a better future. She’s truly a good example of dedication and bravery. As much as Xavier seems to be her complete opposite with all the money and his high status at the university, everything is only a façade. He might act all cold and superior, but inside he’s only alone and bitter about his family! I loved discovering facets of both their personalities! They’re complex characters I appreciated a lot!
The novel is filled with suspense and the intrigue takes a direction I wasn’t expecting making my read even more thrilling. The blackmail and secrets had me gasping for air. The sexual tension between Rocky and Xavier provided some utterly steamy hot moments!
Break You is a book that kept me invested all read long. The shady business and secrets, intense chemistry, but also the emotional instants only make this read more solid. M.V. Ellis started this new Boys of Trinity Hall Series in such a powerful way. I can’t wait to see what she has in store for the next novels set in this world!
