Once Written, Twice Shy (The Broken Men Chronicles #1) by Carey Decevito

I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

Actual Rating 2.5 stars

Paxton is recovering after his wife left him from another man. Joining an amateur writing site, he connects with Alissa, a fellow writer who lives miles away. When they finally meet, sparks fly. Unfortunately, Paxton’s ex is not willing to let go and will use their son to get what she wants.

This is told from the male pov, which is unusual, and I enjoyed it. The sex scenes were steamy and hot. Those are the good points. Overall, I didn’t really enjoy this book. I didn’t connect with the characters; the story is disjointed without a flow to it. I would have preferred to have seen the initial interactions between Paxton and Alissa. While the sex scenes are well written the entire relationship is just alluded to. The reader does not get to see why these two fell for each other.
