A review by elvang
Breakthrough by Kris Bryant

4.0

Kennedy Wells is sent to Alaska to write an article on fishing for an outdoors magazine as final penance for liberties she took while covering the celebrity beat for Mainstream magazine. Take a city girl out of LA and plunk her into the rugged outdoors and you know there is going to be a steep learning curve involved. Add in Kennedy’s talent for finding trouble mixed with a good deal of naïveté and you just know this damsel in distress is going to require saving by the handsome local ranger, Brynn Coleman.

I enjoyed this fish out of water tale and the charming moments shared between the two mains when a series of misadventures force Brynn to come to Kennedy’s rescue. I liked the mix of humour, Brynn’s adorable pet and Kennedy’s talent for getting herself into trouble. There is some intrigue to add weight to this romance but I found myself smiling throughout the read. Some books have HEA written all over them and Breakthrough is one of them. What added to my enjoyment of this read was the author’s confession that some of the events in the book may have had more basis in fact than fiction following a vacation she had taken to Alaska. Kept me turning pages and making guesses.
