Review / Release Blitz: Bend (Bend & Break Duet #1, Shaken #5) by Grahame Claire

Bend, an all new emotional and vulnerable first book in the Bend and Break Duet from USA Today bestselling author Grahame Claire is available now!

I thought arranged marriages died a few centuries ago.
Apparently, my father didn’t get the memo.

In one week I’m supposed to say I do to a man I’ve never met.
And the only way I see out of it? Marry someone else first.
The problem is I have one option on such short notice:
The jerk who shattered my heart.

MY REVIEW

Beau's stuck. Either she marries the man her father wants her to marry, a man who gives her the creeps, or her father does what he keeps threatening to do. What exactly that is, is unnamed throughout this whole series, but whatever it is, is bad enough that Beau and her brothers have all ended up doing things they'd rather not do just to avoid their father's threats. If that isn't bad enough, there's Cal. Yes, Cal. Her brother's fellow firefighter, friend, and the man who broke her heart. He's back in her life and she's unsure what to do with it, with him.

Cal's got the weight of the world on his shoulders. The woman he loves but had to push away is in his life and he can't really have her, never could. But he can't do nothing when she's around, can't keep his hands or his mind, off her. But when she comes to him needing his help in a way he can't resist, will he help her, again? Or are all the other things and people in his life more important than the woman he can't really have?

Beau's backstory is pretty heartbreaking. I've been wanting to know her better since this series began, and I'm so glad I finally got some details. She and Cal have got a complicated history and an even more complicated present, but they're obviously in love, and I have hope things will work out for them, as things worked out for her brothers. The cliffhanger brought up a big question, and I think I know where the story is heading, so now I'm really anxious for Break to come out, so I can know everything!
