Cross My Heart by Avery Maxwell
4.0

This is book 1 in the Broken Hearts series. They are interconnected stand alones, and this one didn’t disappoint at all!!

This was such a well written story about broken people & broken families healing each other. It was so beautiful & I loved Lanie & Tate’s instant connections. She helped pull him out of such a deep sadness that no child should ever feel. Her strength was top tier. Dex’s commitment to making her his was amazing.

Lanie’s best friend, Julia, was an amazing character as was all of Dex’s friends. They were there for both of them through everything & never wavered. I can’t wait to dive into Julia & Trevors story

Here’s a few of the tropes:
- Single Dad
- Traumatized Heroine
- Found Family
