This book has blown me away. I absolutely loved it and I'm not easy to please!!! It's one of those books you pick up in the hope that you'll like it only to find that it's one of the best books you've read this year, or even ever!It tells the story of the horrific events back in 2010 in Christchurch, NZ, when they were hit by a massive earthquake. The story goes straight into the unfolding disaster as witnessed by Kate and her boyfriend of 5 years, Daniel. Kate loves Daniel with all of her heart but he is ripped from her life following the disaster.Kate struggles to recover from her loss and despite the support of her friends and family she can't come to terms with life without Daniel. Enter Dominic...***By just being the man he is , he has seduced my mind and my body burns for him.***Dominic is a friend of Daniel's brother, Chase, and an ex US-Marine who has witnessed his own fair share of traumatic events.Kate and Dom feel a mutual attraction right from the start and Kate seeks comfort in Dom but isn't willing to commit her heart to another.***Her pain whispers to my very soul, merges with it like an invisible cord, binding us together, so that I not only hear her anguish but I feel it slice into my heart like it were my own.***Kate and Dom continue their relationship as friends with Dom offering support, comfort and protection to Kate. Kate still blames herself for Daniel's death though and struggles to accept that no-one was at fault on that tragic day. Despite this, Dom continues to quietly support and comfort Kate until she starts to believe otherwise.***Right then, looking into her lifeless green eyes, I make it my soul mission to help this woman to heal and move on. To make her smile again. Whatever it takes, however long it will take to accomplish.***I have never read a book which has been written so beautifully. The words used by Leanne Pearson almost sing to your heart as Kate and Dom try to recover from PTSD and their respective nightmares. Highlighting in a book is something I do occasionally but with Fractured I found myself highlighting almost half of the book so that just goes to show how magical it is and how talented Leanne Pearson is at capturing the mind and heart of a reader.***You're like the little hummingbird with a broken wing that hasn't healed perfectly. It may never be able to fly again, but it never loses its will to live.***I can't wait to read more from Leanne Pearson, if this book is anything to go by her success will be guaranteed.Copy gifted by the author and reviewed on behalf of Jezabell Girl & Friends...
