Toni Aleo has solidified herself as the queen of hockey. With the fifth book in the Assassin Series, Breaking Away, you will fall in love with this ever growing family. Of course, the old gang is all there from the Adleir's to the Tovik's and all the kids in between. This round, we get Reese and Phillip who seem to be on the same page with just sleeping around and having no commitments. Everything should be perfectly simple for these two, right? What happens when everything is their lives interconnects? This is what we get to explore in Breaking Away and it does not disappoint. I adored Philip with his huge heart and need to fix everything. His relationship with his sister, Claire, made my heart ache.  Out of all the characters, Philip will be the one readers emotionally connect to the most. Then we have Reese, who is the definition of a woman with a broken heart.  With her walls built high, head focused on work and deep concern for others, she is the girlfriend you want to set up with guy or a share bottle of wine with.  Both of them have become two of my favorite characters ever and I loved watching the journey they take. I am beyond excited to see what Toni Aleo comes up with next for this gang and I am hoping for some Patrick and Claire? Fingers crossed.
