Let’s take a look inside Breakaway by E.M. Lindsey, the first book in the Sin Bin: West Coast series.
I honestly didn’t even make it through the prologue without crying… Breakaway starts off in an intense and emotional way, and it’s such a fantastic story! I felt so much for both Adrien and Ravi, and their story turned out to be a lot more than a sports romance.
There are some heavier and potentially triggering subjects in this one, so be sure to check the warnings before reading.
How it begins…
The kiss and cry had never felt more like a prison in that moment.
Tropes
- hurt / comfort
- enemies to lovers
- sports
- forced proximity
- disability rep
- slow burn
- past trauma
Ravi’s neck burned where the firm hand was still resting against him, and he realized that with two light touches, he was completely pinned and helpless.
Jesus, how had he survived without this before?
What to expect
- a bossy figure skater
- shattered dreams
- the sweetest hockey player
- sexual tension
- mild D/s
- emotional
- steamy
Ravi nodded, feeling a rush of endorphins, and he knew that for the first time maybe ever in his life, he’d met someone who truly understood what he needed.
