Introduction
Broken With You is the second installment in the "Stark Security" series. I absolutely loved this one here, it was so delightful and man me heart. This book had me all in my feels and all over the place. This is a story that if you love J.Kenner's writing style, then it will definitely work for you. I really have loved seeing her explore more into the romantic suspense sub genre and this series is most definitely romantic suspense. I have truly loved the way in which she developed this story and the set up was really heart wrenching, but J.Kenner really handled these aspects so well here. I was so drawn into this one here and just didn't want to put it down once I started it. I do think if you like stories that feature married couples, then you definitely should pick this one up.

Summary
Denise hasn't seen her husband Mason, in months. Where he went deep undercover and he has been reported as missing for months. Now he is back, but not fully. He has no memory of their marriage or his time with the Stark Security force, only glimspes of being taken and escaping. He has no clue who he is or what has happened to him. Denise is told by his psychologists that tell him that they are married could be detrimental to his healing. Denise is being torn apart not being able to tell the man she loves, their history or what connection they have or why there is glimpses of that connection and she can't tell him why. Mason knows that there is something vital between him and Denise but he can't figure out why. But when he learns the truth about them, then the risks seem even more real and only him and Denise working together will they be able to bring down their enemies fully...

My Outlook
Broken With You was such a deeply riveting story and I had my heart fully entrenched into this one. J.Kenner really wrote a gem of a read because I couldn't put this one down here. I was so hooked into their story and seeing them work through some serious issues here. My heart was aching for Denise, because she was in such a horrible position. You see her emotional struggle learning her husband is alive, but scarred and with no memory. You just feel her heartbreak over that and knowing that she can't tell him the truth, he has to figure it out on his own. But I have to say when he does learn the truth it was EPIC! That moment was the most memorable moment of the story for me other than the climax of the ending. We also see how they are faced with some great challenges in the second half of the story and it will take some creative risks for them to overcome them. I really love how this author kept me on my toes with this one and I couldn't seem to put it down. I was so all in for this couple and cheering them on all the way in. They will definitely stay in my mind for quite some time here.

Overall View
Broken With You was a captivating story that brings together such deep brilliant emotion to the front of the reader's mind and cultivates a rich love story that delivers fully!
