Torn: an Angsty Friends to Lovers Romance (Breaker Ridge Book 1) Kindle Edition

4.6 out of 5 stars 71 ratings

Life as I’d known it was torn apart just months ago, my dad’s death knocking me off my feet with unrelenting grief. Even my twin sister pulled away, robbing me of the tether that had grounded me our entire lives.

All that holds me together some days is the support of my best friend.

Tucker Pierce has become the reason I can still breathe.

To others, he’s a legend, the hottest guy in school…and the biggest player on campus.

To me, he’s my rock.

Loving him might break me. It already nearly has. And if he discovers my REAL secret, it will break him, too.

Masking how I feel is crucial. So, when the new bad boy moves to town, he’s the perfect distraction. Tucker is off limits, the absolute last person I can lose.

Yet fate has already proven it’s cruel. And its plans for us are twisted.

So, when my secret inevitably comes out, can we beat the odds?

Full of twists and turns, the Breaker Ridge Series is a new adult, friends-to-lovers ongoing romance series packed with drama and emotional angst.

Some books have cliffhangers but there will ultimately be a happy ending in the final book.

A list of TW's is available on the author's website.

Characters and a few select scenes are from the previously published series, Tied by Fate.

    Oh my goodness, this book is so good!!!

    These 4 friends are making it through thigh school while going through loss and some trama.

    Jet is the football player/mechanic who is in love with Annie and says that she is his forever! He is the sound of reason in their group.

    Annie is a lifeguard and loves to hangout with her friends and her twin. She is madly in love with Jet and sees forever with him.

    Izzy is the quiet shy twin who loves dancing, and figured out that she is in love with her best friend Tucker, who is the player of the school. She is afraid that he won’t have the same feelings.

    Tucker is the star basketball player and lifeguard, every girl wants to be with him. He is over protective of his friends and especially Izzy and just doesn’t want to ruin their friendship if he crosses that line with her.

    A gorgeous bad boy comes rolling into town and has his eyes on Izzy… oh the drama that comes.

    This is a huge cliffhanger and I can’t wait for the next book!!!

    Let me start by saying - I HATE star ratings. Just tell me if you liked the book or didn’t and why! That said - I really did like this book. It took me a while to get through (thanks work, and being an adult) but every page was like “agh what’ll happen next? Do I hate Tucker or do I love him?”.

    This book comes off of Breaker Ridge Beginnings where we get a little taste of all the characters integral to the story. The main factor we don’t get is Zane - and oh my is he…something.

    This is a New Adult book and for good reason. There’s a bit of spice, but a lot of the pressures of later teen years that will weigh on you as you read. While Izzy and Annie are twins, they have a good number of differences that are made apparent throughout the book. I liked that it was a glimpse into a twin connection; but also kept pieces of them separate. The book also explored the different mental health struggles both go through with grief…as well as another character we don’t see quite as much. That character will remain at the forefront of your mind though!

    If you like cliffhangers as well, then this is definitely for you. My mind is racing with the possibilities!

    Love this book so much the right amount of angsty love. Heartbreak and picking up pieces and it does end on a cliffhanger but I can’t wait to read the next book.

    Loved this book. A perfect example of teenagers in high school as they face trials of emotional duress between growing up, relationships, beach parties and broken hearts. A great series !!!

    Torn follows the Donovan twins as they try to heal their grief and navigate their love lives. Full of angst, healing, and tension, it delivers an entertaining journey for us. I quite enjoyed this book, and I’m so glad I got to jump back into the world of Breaker Ridge. I love Izzy and Annie, and I felt for them as they tried to figure things out with Tucker and Jet, respectively. And that cliffhanger? I can’t wait to get my hands on the next book and see what happens.

    Songs that this story reminded me of:
    My Type by The Chainsmokers, Emily Warren
    All Falls Down by Alan Walker, Noah Cyrus, Digital Farm Animals, Juliander
    Helium by Sia
    Bloodstream by The Chainsmokers

    10/10 Pacing
    A slowburn that is so worth the wait! It was perfect in my opinion because things were never stagnant. Nothing was rushed but it did not drag either. Everything happened when they should have and the plot itself felt complete.

    10/10 Story Arc
    We do not read about just 1 connection as in just the main lead characters. Our side characters are also fully written out, with a full story. And there are so many twists and challenges that nothing falls flat.

    10/10 Characters
    The author gave the side characters enough of a full story. And none of it took away from the main characters' story at all. The character traits for everyone is so distinct. We have some real flawed characters and I loved it.

    10/10 Inclusion of the teased tropes
    As I was reading, I kept on thinking "this is exactly what I signed up for". Please be aware that this is not just a typical highschool romance with the tropes included below 💙

    ✨ ARC Review ✨

    ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐:
    I can't remember how far along I was into this book where I actually could not put it down. It caught me off guard at that point and I just kept on turning the page. As I've mentioned before in some other reviews, I love a book with strong characters. Their presence is valued by the author and that is consistent. This is exactly what the author does with Torn, book 1 of the Breaker Ridge series. The characters mold the book in my opinion and then the plot moves. Please note that there is a prequel to this book. It is highly recommended that you finish that before reading book 1. On the note of plot, I loved the challenges. Whenever characters overcome something or moves on to the other side of something that was anxiety causing, I can't help but cheer them on and there's a lot of that in this book. Be ready to get so frustrated 😉

    🌶️🌶️🌶️:
    There are details but it was not recurring. Although there is sexual content, it was not heavily focused on. My guess is because the story was still being crafted, the characters have more to share first and other challenges were prioritized. I liked the wait, it felt worthwhile to me. There is chemistry and tension between the couples and I expect more of that in the upcoming books.

    Overall, I recommend this book! Special thanks to Keelan for the opportunity to be an ARC reader. I had a great time 💙

    Drama, drama, drama!

    This best friends to lovers, coming of age, teen romance has ALL the drama, and I loved every minute of it!
    The four main characters are the best part of the series. They’ve grown up together as neighbors and are as tight knit as you can get. Add that the girls are identical twins and one has been “dating” one of the boys since middle school, not to mention the other being secretly in love with the other boy, who is, of course, the player of the school, and there’s no choice but drama.
    The secondary characters are just as superb and the camaraderie between them all gives the Breaker Ridge series its driving force. No matter what happens, they’ve got each other’s backs, and they definitely need it.

    I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

    4.0 out of 5 stars It’s a great start
    Reviewed in India on October 23, 2023
    When I got my hands on this book, I was very excited to read it because I had already read the novella and it pretty much intrigued me with its storyline. And I was excited to find out what happens next and what all happened in the lives of Izzy & Annie along with their best friends Tucker & Jet.

    Let me tell you that I binge-read this one and gobbled up everything this book had to offer. Keelan definitely made an amazing full-length debut with this book. The story was crystal clear and it was all going sweet but with a high emotional level, every now and then.

    But the moment it got to 70% everything changed from sweet to intense. The danger was all up and on the horizon but it was not visible to us until it got to the end and left us on a freaking cliffhanger. I mean a very very mysterious cliffhanger which I was not expecting at all.

    Now my need for book two is too much and also I want to know how long this series is going to be. Are we just touching the surface of the ocean or are we already mid-way?? The second half of the book came up with lots of questions about Zane’s background and I want to know them.

    Izzy, Annie, Jet & Tucker have their POVs in the book which helps in understanding the story better and it connects well with my brain and heart. These characters are strong and very protective of each other and have a raging chemistry with each other. Undeniable loyalty is the best part.

    I will be waiting for “Broken”, the second book in this series.
    It’s a 4.25⭐️ for me.
