A review by colbiecam
Beautifully Shattered by B. Livingstone
4.0
*Overall: 3.5/5*
I have high hopes for this series. Riley is certainly shattered and has so much healing to do. Between her parent’s deaths, her sister’s death, her boyfriend leaving her, and a dependence on drugs/alcohol, she needs a support system. She lucks into this when finding her mates at the bar she works at but even then, is too guarded to really connect. This book has the bones of a great story but the length being what it is, just lacks the meat to get it there.
*Originality: 3/5*
*Characters: 4/5*
*Story development: 2/5*
*Writing quality: 4/5*
*Steam level: 2/5*
*Prevalent genre/themes/tropes* Shifters, fated mates, drug abuse and withdrawal, dark themes, recovery
*Reading time: ~2 hours*
