Broken Love Story by far is my favorite read of 2018 and favorite story in this series. Sam and Blake are two broken souls that meet by chance. Sam had the perfect life including husband and two kids...until she found out her husband wasn't so perfect. Blake's high school girlfriend and love of his life passed away from cancer at a very young age. It left him in a million pieces. He promised her he would move on and be happy, until he couldn't. Until he met Sam, by a huge leap of faith.

This story will give you chills and shatter your aoul. You will also laugh and smile. This story will make your heart feel full again. Sometimes it takes a tragedy to bring two people close together. Sometimes two broken souls just heal each other!

What a wonderful conclusion to this three book series! Initially I thought this would be the book I liked the least within the series, but Natasha crafted a beautiful, emotionally rich and poignant love story.

I feel in love with these characters and was thrilled to see Samantha and Hailey heal their brokenness.

Broken Love Story is the third book in the Love Series by Natasha Madison. This book is a standalone story, but each book in this series is interconnected. In case you haven’t you haven’t read the previous books in this series, each book centers around one couple, all dealing with the circumstances of a life changing incident. I have to admit that while I was excited for the first two books, I knew this one was going to be different and that had me extremely nervous. I shouldn’t have been though, as this book was just as good as the previous ones and I think fans are going to love it!

From the outside, Samantha’s life looked perfect. A good man for a husband, two beautiful daughters and a family she gained through marriage. But with one phone call, her world is shattered leaving her with doubts and questions that no one can answer. Blake loved and lost his dream girl, and he vowed to never open himself up for that kind of pain again. But when he meets Samantha at the worst time in her life, he soon realizes that he can’t easily forget her. As Samantha searches for answers from one of the only places she can get them, her and Blake grow closer and soon they both begin to wonder if two broken souls can complete one another for a future they never envisioned.

I wasn’t sure how I’d feel here about Samantha and Blake, but I really liked both of them. Their connection was one I felt right away, and it was so real and genuine. I loved that while it was there right from the start, it built naturally, with them becoming someone they each could talk to and their friendship and relationship grew from that. They fit well together, and it just seemed as though everything that they had each gone through led them to exactly where they were meant to be.

Overall, I really enjoyed this book as I have this entire series. The characters were all unique and easy to relate to. Each book was emotional and well developed, with an overall story not to be missed, but with each couple shining and deserving of their own book. I loved Samantha and Blake, and her two daughters were adorable. This book was one I felt invested in right away, and my heart broke for all that Samantha was going through as well as Blake. I definitely recommend this series, and while each book can be read as a standalone, I highly recommend reading them in order if possible. Each book is a great story, and I love the way each one pieces together the entire picture, showing that love and hope can be found in the most unlikely of places and circumstances and that it is always worth fighting for and taking the risk on.

 Well, what I can tell you certainly is that I enjoyed this book way better than the second one. But that said, and despite my initial excitment towards the whole idea of telling the story of how one person can influence several people, the series kinda got old by the time the last book came out. The books individually would/could have been huge success and phenomenal stories but with the insane amount of overlaps between them just made them a bit boring for me. The one reason why I don't reread books is because for the second time it's not as exciting anymore. This applies in this case as well. We see too much into the other books.

Anyway I enjoyed Blake and Samantha's story. I was the most interested in Sam side of things from the very beginning so it was great to finally see it. Not that I didn't know what the conclusion of the story is going to be since it's clear from the ending of Perfect love story, and also the inbetween parts were pretty preditable, but the overall atmosphere was really great. So yes I liked it.
Now for purely about the story, or more like about the characters. I really liked them even if I didn't agree with their choices all the time. They are not the kind of characters I prefer in my reads but they are perfect for this plot, they give something extra to the series.

Samantha's POV is really tense but emotionally reserved from the very beginning mainly thanks to her in-laws. I would have blown up way before she even started to reailez their faults. Anyway for some reason I expected her side of the story to be more emotional. And while she goes through a lot of things I don't really feel the emotions coming through the writing. That was a shame because it would have been awesome with a bit more UHMP.
I also felt that she blamed almost everything on her being an orphan, that was a bit strange for me.

Sam and Blake had a lot in common and they could help each other heal. This is one thing that probably propelled their relatonship ahead so fast and made things so effortless between them. The loss and grief created a bond between them. And while it was maybe a bit fast.paced romance wise I loved their interactions.

It's a beautiful story of starting over and healing. I enjoyed it quite a bit but my favprite in the series is always going to be the first book.

I am completely blown away with this book. The first two in this series are excellent but this one just tops it all.

I knew the feelings would be overflowing after just the first few chapters but I never imagined what would take place between Samantha and Blake. The hits they just kept coming but for each other they became pillars of strength. It was emotional and angsty and beautiful and I'm left just overwhelmed with all that happened.

Loved this series!!
