Rule Breaker by Lily Morton
4.0
Couldn't decide on a rating, but I'm going with 3.5 stars. The story was amazing. The chemistry between these two was palpable, and I loved how the other characters mentioned this to them, like they could feel the sexual tension and had to leave the room. And I totally got teary-eyed when it was obvious where the relationship was headed, and my heart broke for Dylan more than once. I loved the snark and banter between Gabe and Dylan, and I love that Dylan was so perceptive and knew what Gabe was doing before he did it, but he also put his foot down, even after the conversation with his mother. I'm happy Dylan stuck to his guns even after Henry and Jude tried to change his mind. Gabe needed to put in the work and effort and make changes; otherwise, what would be the point of Dylan taking him back, so they could get back on the same merry-go-round?
I do wish we got Gabe's POV throughout the book, not just in the epilogue. But my biggest issue with this book was with the grammar. OMG! The writing came across as too formal... Contractions are your friend. Also, so many extraneous words and run on sentences. It took me far longer to read this than it should have because I kept getting pulled out of it to correct the issues in my own head. Made me NUTS! And if I read and then ONE MORE TIME, I think I'd have pulled my hair out. Just say then.
