Meet Brooklyn Caldwell, she has been hurt, cheated on, lied to and has experienced one of the deepest losses anyone can. Brooklyn is broken by her standards, untrusting and will never love anyone like she did her a-hole ex-boyfriend Damon.Enter stage left, Logan Colton. He is sexy, accomplished, rich, can have any girl he wants; and he wants Brooklyn. When this two seemingly meet by chance and then yet again by what could only be fate; Brooklyn will be confronted with the decision to give love another chance or protect what is left of her wounded heart.There is a lot that happens in the course of this story. In Unsettled we are introduced to Brooklyn and what is her current life situation. We meet her friend Alex and Alex’s boyfriend Jay, we see her struggle through her unsatisfactory job and deal with her craptastic boss and we learn about her painful past. But there is something else we learn in book 1. We learn that Brooklyn is a survivor, and that Brooklyn despite her experience with love still has a big heart. One that is indeed willing to take a leap of faith on the hottie CEO who is determined to win her over.Logan is more than meets the eye, not one for long lasting relationships and being hurt himself he can’t help but be drawn to Brooklyn. She is different, refreshing, and normal and all the things he needs/wants in his life. But Logan has a painful past too and the struggle he has opening up to Brooklyn is so maddening that it may need to find a pillow to scream into.Logan and Brooklyn’s relationship begins to take shape in in this book but not without its drama, cue ex-douchecanoe Damon, a few gossiping bimbettes and guilt over a horrific event and you have yourself a recipe for some real angst. Brooklyn has to move on from her past and face the one person that broke her as well as deal with her trust issues. Logan has to come to terms with a burden he has been carrying around since he was a child and this is where Unsettled takes you on tailspin of emotion that will literally hurt your heart and leave you hanging, proceed with caution and use all the items above list in whatever order pleases you. BUT, don't fret. While you are cursing your reading device of choice there is a second book in which Logan and Brooklyn's journey continues.YAY!!!This book will have you all over the place. There will be times where you are mad, sad, near tears, laughing and feeling hot and bothered all over. I loved this first part of the series, the relationship development between Logan and Brooklyn never feels rushed or unrealistic. Their personalities go well with each other and I love the flirtations and playful banter written into the storyline between them. Good read and great start to the series.
