"Darkness swept through my vision as my short lived life passed before my eyes. His face was the last thing I saw before I succumbed to my destiny. It's funny how life can change its direction in the blink of an eye. What had once brought me strength has now made me weak and it was no one's fault but my own. I did this and unfortunately he would now be the one to suffer for it. I could feel my heart breaking into a million pieces all over again and the feeling made me want to die."Best friends Gray and Bennett finally realized their feelings for each other were real and would fight anything for their love.  Time and situations have pushed them apart and sent them in different directions.  Now 5 years later their lives cross paths once again and it's up to Gray to save Bennett from her life.  Can Bennett give her heart to Gray again after all this time and can Gray save this beautifully broken girl and show her the love he still holds for her in his heart.This was my first book I have read of Amanda Bennett's and it was truly beautiful.  I fell in love with Bennett and Gray and their story from the beginning, I was routing for them to have their happily ever after that they so desperately deserved.  When things fell apart and Gray left Bennett my heart broke for her. She is such a strong character; she dusted herself off and moved forward with her life.  New romances came into the picture and she thought she was finally going to get her happily ever after but the man who promised to love her was breaking her heart and spirit 1 piece at a time.I was very happy to see Gray come back into Bennett live like a knight and shining armor and try to rescue his beautifully broken girl from her life and put her back together again.  He is strong and determined and will stop at nothing until Bennett his whole again.  He would gladly give his own life to know that his true love, Bennett, is safe and happy and he will stop at nothing until he mends her heart.Amanda Bennett wrote a beautiful love story that spanned the course of over 5 years - once young loves they quickly grew up and life got in the way of their love and torn them apart.  I loved how she portrayed their feelings for one another even when they were apart.  It was truly their destiny to be together in the end.  Things that happened to Bennett were a little hard for me to read but he just proved to show how strong of a young woman she was and she was going to go down with a fight and I admire her for that.  I can't wait to finish their journey in Breaking Beautiful (Broken Series #2)
