Avoid: hero cheats on the doormat h throughout the series.They’re fuck buddies, meaning he fucks other girls for years, while she only slept with him when he felt like it.🙄

Typical Tijan magic touch!I'm not sure about the rating, there are things in this one that I dislike but on the other hand I can live with it. Not when it would be in my life.Alex and Jesse are both trying to cope with the loss of Alex's brother and Jesse's best friend Ethan. They try to deal/numb their pain in their own way. Along the way I was confused with Jesse there were times that I could understand him and times I just thought yes plain asshole.. Now I need to rant a bit about Marissa oka...

This book was absolutely amzing...It was a different love story than what I was used to read.I was emtoional enough through the whole book and I think it broke my heart...And fyi, I don't think that Alex's parents diserve to be called like that (parents)....

”I had lost my mom when I had lost Ethan. I had lost my father as well. I’d lost the family even. I still had Jesse, in some ways, but nothing was the same. I wasn’t the same.”~ Alex There were so many things that irked me about this story, like her horrendous parents, the vague details about her brother’s death and her friends’ behavior towards her at the very end. Most importantly, that bizarre ending. Regardless of the crazy turn things took in the end, I inhaled this book and I have to wa

Ever since the death of her older brother, Alex's perfect world has fallen apart. Her once attentive parents are wholly absent. Nothing holds her interest. She's a shell of the girl she was before.The only person who truly understands her pain is Jesse, her brother's best friend. The school's star athlete and heartthrob, Jesse hides his pain by losing himself in sports. He pushes himself to the point of pain to block it all out. He's numb. The only time he feels anything is when he's with Alex.

4 frenzied stars!!!Damn that cliffhanger ending!!**The title basically sums up the whole story. Alex loses her older brother, and she struggles to cope with his death. Her way of escaping, and sorting through her trauma, is by hooking up with her dead older brothers’ best friend, and man-whore, Jesse. However, as Alex copes with the loss and emptiness through her physical connection with Jesse, she starts wanting more; she wants all of him. She doesn’t want to be his dirty secret, and vice versa...

Me, after reading this book: It seriously took me two days to figure out how to rate this book. Why? Oh boy, well, because there were some elements that were really good. I found the scenes between Alex and Jesse pretty compelling, I wanted to know more of their story, but the author had other plans and that's where things took a nosedive. Instead of focusing on what made this couple so tragically perfect or wrong for each other, depending on how you see things, we're treated to a smorgasb...

After reading and enjoying 8 of Tijan's books, I wanted to give this one a try.I made it to 40 % and I just have to give up. If there is one thing I really can't stand, it's doormat heroines....and we've got a winner right here !!Damn but I had absolutely no respect for Alex. She was nothing like Kennedy or Sam, who were feisty and stood up for themselves. Alex has been depressed for over a year, because her brother died. Now this I understood. Her parents are assholes, who don't seem to remembe...

My friend Nicoleta insisted so much on me reading this book for so long. But even though she never fails in her recommendations I don’t know for some reason I was avoiding this book all this time until last night that I finally decided that I should give it a try. Even though I started it late and I had to wake up early I soon found myself really hooked up but the book. I was so touched that I couldn’t put it down. Broken and screwed is a book about grief, love, survival, depression. It is th...

2 STARS ✰⏩ Edited review: 1/21Broken and Screwed is book one in the BS series. It is told from Alex's POV (main heroine). This book is true to typical Tijan with characters that have family issues, a tragic event acts as the catalyst to how the characters are, tons of angst between MC, and some rather prickly side characters. Generally, I love Tijan writing style as I find the books enthralling. I been hooked on her books since Ryan's Bed which is one of my all time favorite books. Unfort...

1.5/5 stars I can get through a lot, and I managed to get through this as well, mostly because I hoped the book would redeem itself in the end. I had no such luck.What happens in the first half of the book is this: People are depressed. Alex our MC is a doormat for Jesse the entire time. Alex's best friends go at each other about how bad friends they are. That's pretty much it, just that the scenes changes slightly, but in all, this about sums it all up. I could have liked this if it had been ex...

HEARTBREAKING.The title of this gorgeous book is a description fit for purpose. 'Broken and screwed' is an angst filled story, about two souls finding their heart, love and way in life amongst all the pain and heartache.The story had so many sides to it i didn't know whether to be entertained or confused. ~Unrequited love, bereavement, friendships, sex, high school drama, pain, heartache, bad parenting, anger and much, much more.This is not an easy read by any stretch. The mood of the book start...

🎧 Audiobook Review 🎧 2⭐ for the story4⭐ for the audiobook narration This book reminded me so much of Ryan's Bed, that it was hard for me to stop the comparison between them, since Ryan's bed is one of my favorite books by this author. So Alex is the FMC here and I couldn't connect with her, or accept the way that she handled everything around her. She lost her big brother a year before and she was still "numb" for the world, her friends, her parents... Basically everyone except Jesse. J

Another great read from Tijan. I really enjoyed this story...aside from the ending. But I kind of knew it was coming. This is part 1 of 2. After the death of her brother Ethan, Alex is left drifting through life, just going through the motions. Not really feeling and experiencing life. The only time she feels anything is when she's with Ethan's best friend Jesse. Alex and Jesse have this connection through Ethan that neither one can explain and neither one can deny.But Jesse's not looking for a

5 Broken Stars!!! Broken and Screwed. Once I started this book, I inhaled it. Could not put it down. Love books like this. Books about beautifully broken people. Love, grief, depression, and heartbreak. That is B&S in a nutshell. Alex’s brother has been gone a year. A year since Ethan has died and Alex’s entire life changed. She feels destroyed, shattered. But she’s not the only one. Her parents are absent, and Ethan’s best friend Jesse, well, things are complicated with him. I had lost...

Holy shit I loved this book. I was gripped from page one. Alex and her story - oh my word gripped my soul. Jesse - I loved him then cursed him then loved him again. I get it. They need each other. Grieve together. Evolve together. Jesse get your shit together. I am on YOUR TEAM. Figure this out! Give Alex her happily ever after dammit!!!! And holy effing cliff hangers and now I have to wait til August !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! FFFFFFFFFNew cover love ❤️❤️❤️❤️

What was that? I stayed up all night and loved it..I have no words and i must wait until August to find out the rest.. Seriously August!! First Chapter of the review.. Spoiler FREEThe story is so good, it pulls you right in until the last moment..Jesse Hunt is one of the hottest book boyfriends ever and i wasn't irritating at all by Alex..Her friend Angie was amazing but it was really weird how that changed towards the end..Her friend Marissa on the other hand:I seriously hated her from the fir

GUILTY PLEASURE READ AND NOTHING MORE!!! This authors is my ADDICTION. My CRACK! My ESCAPE! My EXCEPTION. I can't get enough of her books. Her stories–all of them–will ALWAYS be 5 star reads for me because I don't read them like I do other books. They have become my escape, my guilty pleasure, my one exception. They encompass EVERYTHING that would normally drives me bat-shit-crazy, yet they don't. For whatever reason, they are in a class of their own and they work for me BIG TIME. I just hang on...

DISCLAIMER: REVIEW POSSIBLY CONTAINS LARGE AMOUNTS OF CURSE WORDSThis book was totally Broken and Screwed! The title definitely got it right.It's the most disappointing book ever.If I could describe this book in one word it would have to be deceptive. It will make you think that something was going to happen but then nothing really special happens and you'll wait again and then wait some more and then still... nothing happens! You'll have to buy the second book tor really find out what the hell

Oh shit!!!! Jesus Christ... Oh shit!!!This was... This was so... Oh my Gosh! I can't find the words...My heart is pounding so hard... I feel a burden in my chest... It's so heavy...That book was... extaordinary! It was fantastic even though it ripped my heart in million tiny pieces!!!Oh my goodness! I don't even now from where i 'll start...I feel desperate and broken and screwed and......so much angry.It starts with two desperate people that hooked up occasionally...They try to forget the pain
