When We Break by Kristen Proby

5.0

emotional hopeful mysterious medium-paced

---

When Skyla needs out of NYC, she finds a home in Bitterroot Valley, opening up a dance studio to continue her love of ballet. She also found the Blackwell family. After catching a glimpse of Skyla, Beckett is determined to know her, but her guard is up. As he chips away at the walls she built, Beckett finds out why she is there and is able to comfort her; she has an alert dog, Riley, and Beckett even picked up on how to help with him at home and in the car, going so far as to buy 4 dog beds for him. While reading to his girl is an elite trait, the best thing Beckett did was have his sister turn on the lights, so they didn’t arrive back to a dark house. Beckett is the ultimate MMC with how he loves: he paid attention to what she was embarrassed of and found a way to help, like with her feet. Can Skyla return to the ballet stage, or will someone from her past return? I love how happy Skyla was at home with her dog and chickens, and she didn’t need more. I am excited to see what’s to come for Connor and Billie, after we got to see even more of them in this book (maybe another family jet trip)?
