About this ebook
A sexy, emotional New Adult romance about a bad boy on the edge and a good girl about to lose control…
A college baseball star isn’t supposed to have skeletons in his closet. But Daniel Quinn is hiding a guilty past so dark he refuses to let anyone get close. Except there’s something about gorgeous, studious Ella Abrams that goes beyond the electric attraction between them—something that makes him want to open up.
Ella has suffered enough heartache and guilt to fill one of her psychology textbooks, but she keeps that part of herself hidden behind a bubbly exterior. Until she receives an anonymous call while working a suicide helpline and the voice on the other end touches something inside of her that she can’t ignore.
Soon Ella and Quinn’s physical connection heats up, even as their deep and revealing hotline talks intensify. But by the time Ella realizes that her seductive jock and her sensitive caller are the same guy, it might be too late to save him—or to stop herself from falling too far…

Loved the first book (gave it 5 stars). Hated this one. Who kisses until their tongues are swollen?!? It felt like the length of the story was forced. Whenever the couple from bk 1 was mentioned, I wanted it to just go back to them and have them plan their wedding or have babies. And I know the book dealt with the serious topic of suicide and it was handled with respect. That's why I gave it a star. I might have even went with 2 if I hadn't liked the first so much.

Before you break is an interesting YA read with some NA and adult interaction and topics interwound in the story. Ella and Quinn discover eachother through a hotline that she volunteers for after they both experience a loss of a loved one. While they both find strength in eachother for such a serious topic the book doesn't take much else seriously. Its a decent read but I didn't find much else inspiring about it.

I didn't read the first one in this series, but I probably will. This was a great read. The author really told an excellent story. I loved Quinn, he was damaged but kind at heart.
