Book Synopsis from Goodreads
Growing up in small town Wisconsin, Carly Turner couldn’t wait to escape when she graduated high school. Now, she’s living the life in New York City, even if she isn’t seeing her name in lights like she used to dream about at night. She’s living paycheck-to-paycheck, working behind the scenes in small theaters off Broadway. When there’s an equipment malfunction the week before opening night, Carly makes a call that winds up changing everything.
Life in the city isn’t all it’s cracked up to be. While she feels like she’s getting closer to making the move from behind the scenes to center stage, she misses being surrounded by people who understand the quirks that come from living in a town of five thousand people. That, and the fact that he’s sexy as sin, make Adam everything she feels like she’s missing.
The only problem? He’s her best friend’s kid brother…
Adam Sanders wants to settle down, find a good woman and start a family like he sees so many of his friends doing. But how is he supposed to meet Ms. Right when he’s constantly on the road for work? When he’s sent to New York to handle a repair that would typically be contracted out as a favor to his boss, he’s just about to his breaking point.
Everything changes when the stagehand sent to open the theater for him is none other than his big sister’s childhood friend. The same girl he lusted after as a teenager. Could this be fate’s way of showing him that he was looking in the wrong place for love?
As Adam and Carly’s friendship develops, lines will be crossed and rules will be broken. Will they be able to come out the other side without destroying everything they had back in Brooklyn?
Breaking the Rules Review
Since Bent by HB Heinzer was the entire reason I started reading Romance Novels, I desperately awaited the release of the follow-up Breaking the Rules. HB Heinzer was able to weave the story of Carly and Adam so that it fell seamlessly with the characters in Bent. There were still glimpses of Julia and Micah, which I was happy about because I fell in love with Micah’s character in Bent.
I have to say I think I like Adam as a character more than Micah. Honestly, he drives a ’66 Chevelle SS and wears Converse? Yep, I may just love Adam. 😉
“If you can promise me that you will trust that I won’t leave you, I will do everything I can to show you every say that I’m here for the long haul.” ~Adam, Breaking the Rules by H.B. Heinzer
Breaking the Rules follows the love story of Adam and Carly and while not as intense as Bent
The hot, steamy love scenes are delicious and I’ll be keeping an eye out for her next book!
