Three Broken Promises by Monica Murphy

4.0

Three Broken Promises is the third book coming from Monica Murphy in the series that follows the amazing One Week Girlfriend and Second Chance Boyfriend, and this time we focus on the lives and love of Fable’s friend and co-worker, Jen, and their boss Colin.

This is typical Monica NA fabulous and I didn’t realise how much I missed this gang until I started reading this book, but once I got going I really didn’t want to let them go again so I’m now even more excited for Owen’s book. But for now, we have these wannabe lovers who don’t half like to make things difficult for themselves.

My feelings are pretty mixed for this pair. On one hand, they have both been through so much that they truly, truly deserve happiness and you know from the start – heck, we knew from when we very first met them in Drew and Fable’s books – that they would make each other happy and that they belonged together. But they seem to have a habit of letting their troubled pasts rule their present and at times it was so frustrating!!!! I just wanted to bang their heads together and force them to admit their feelings for each other.

“So. Do you feel the same? Or are you just stringing her along?”
“I-”
“If you say ‘I don’t know,’ I swear to God, I will knee you in the balls.” – Fable to Colin.


I absolutely could not have said it better than Fable did right then. She makes a few appearances in Three Broken Promises, and she’s still the same feisty, out-spoken girl we met and loved almost a year ago! We briefly get to see dreamy Drew again also, but this book is mainly just Jen and Colin.

Although as I said before, their relationship was frustrating, it wasn’t always that way. When I wasn’t pulling my hair out, I was fanning myself from the overload of complete and utter hotness, swooning incredibly hard and falling in love with these great characters created by the amazing MM.

I just want to lean over the center console and press my lips to hers. Steal her thoughts, steal her heart. Like she’s done to me.- Colin.

Filled with emotion, drama, red-hot sex, intensity, and a love may as well have been written in the stars, Three Broken Promises is another must read from Monica Murphy.
