Losing a parent just plain old sucks, believe me I know. Now losing both parents, that's something I don't even want to imagine. Add on top of that a failing relationship with a not so sympathetic boyfriend and you got yourself a confused and broken women. This is Dallis' reality so who could blame the girl for being a bit moody and closed off? Well unfortunately her d... of a boyfriend that's who.I really felt for Dallis, she hasn't had the best of luck in her life. Death is never easy, especially when you don't have a strong pair of hands behind you holding you up and moving you past the grief. And unfortunately Dallis is missing those hands in her boyfriend Colby. So Dallis does what she feels is the best thing for her and hides her grief by throwing herself into work. It is her job that puts her right in the path of Grayson, the sexy, tattooed barista boy.From reading the other reviews of Shattered it is hard to miss the love everyone has from Grayson. He is the strong pair of hands that Dallis needs. Having been through loss himself he understand what Dallis is going through even if she is still reluctant to face it."You need to .... mourn, Dallis. It's an important step in learning to live again."I really liked Greyson, sexy and compassionate but also realistic and down to earth, someone I could see myself with. He knows what Dallis needs and even though she is reluctant to start a new relationship out of fear that she would again lose someone she loves he still pursues her. The relationship that forms between the two of them is heartwarming and the sex isn't too bad either ;)Shattered was a lovely book, with a good combination of heartbreaking and heartwarming that many will enjoy.
