Margaret McHeyzer proves once again that she has a novel bag of tricks with no bottom. She reaches into her endless ability basket and pulls out another sensational idea. With the creation of A Life Less Broken, this outstanding author brings forward a heart-wrenching story that will leave you completely devastated and absolutely breathless.I am almost positive this author enjoys getting an extreme rise out of her readers. After reading the pre-prologue and the prologue, I am convinced she wants to see who is willing to stick with her intensity. Only the strongest survive, right? If you are willing to peek through your fingers during the gruesome introduction, you will be rewarded with a magnificent journey of discovering inner strength and overcoming the demons that continue to plague the present.Allyn is trapped by the past and she can’t move forward. Her paranoid personality has taken over and now she is utterly stuck inside the walls of her home. Even when Allyn is thinking clearly, she refuses the help that has been offered. She finds herself alone, isolated, and slowly slipping away from existence. When you lose hope in yourself, how can anyone else reach you?Dr. Dominic Shriver is up for Allyn’s challenge and he won’t give up when she pushes him away. His determination and drive initially appears to be professional because Dominic is fantastic in his field. The slow spinning connection between patient and doctor sneaks up on you but you’ll realize you’ve be rooting for them to take the next step.Allyn is emotionally and physical scarred, which doesn’t get cured overnight. The vivid descriptions and precise detail that went into this story blows me away. The amount of thought this author put into this tale is obvious and she deserves the heaps of praise I know she will receive. I loved being wrapped up in Allyn’s recovery and often felt I was there watching the scenes play out. I was constantly hoping Dominic was strong enough to pull her through the darkness because what they share is beyond words.So… don’t let the prologues scare you off. Margaret McHeyzer knows how to rip emotions out of me like no other author can. She packs a crucial punch with her ability to push boundaries. You think she is taking things too far until you realize how fantastic it is. By the time you notice what is happening, you are completing submerged in the story. This new release is sure to bring you to tears and cause a wicked book hangover. Prepare yourself for an extremely emotional read like nothing you’ve ever experienced before.
