Spotlight Tour - Review and Giveaway - Undone by R.E Hunter

Five years ago, Embry Jacobs ran...

She ran from a past that still hasn’t let her go, but her dream of becoming a lawyer is stronger than her fear of confronting that past. Embry’s sole focus is to get through law school—with the help of her best friend, Morgan—and make something of the broken girl she became. Not thinking about falling in love, being in a relationship or even entertaining the idea of romance, Embry is moving forward one day at a time.

Luke Brody is charming and sexy, and has a past of his own. He wants nothing more than to put his demons to rest and move on with his life. But, when Embry enters the picture, is he destined to repeat those same mistakes?

Blindsided by their instant attraction, neither Luke nor Embry are prepared for the feelings they’re developing. But will it all be for nothing?

Will they let their pasts destroy them, or will they risk everything to fight for their relationship when it all comes undone?

REVIEW

My Rating = 3.5 stars

*ARC provided by the author in exchange for my honest review

This is the debut novel by RE Hunter and the first book in the Disclosure series.

Moving on from an abusive relationship, Embry Jacobs is back in New York attending law school with her best friend Morgan. It’s here she literally bumps into a gorgeous man in the halls, with an intensity that overwhelms her but fate was definitely sending her a message that day.

Luke Brody is also making a fresh start from his hometown in Georgia and from his first contact with Embry he cannot help but pursue her. From the initial tentative steps they take, a relationship begins to blossom but then something happens that has the power to blow all they have built away.

This was a little slow for me at first and I have never understood the ‘conduct’ issue that I have read in similar storylines, I can’t really explain without divulging a spoiler in the story but why would it matter seeing as she is twenty-five and he is thirty-one? Hmm anyhow I liked the storyline as it gradually took up pace until I was hit with the ending – cliffy time! Aggh. Now I know cliff-hangers can be a good thing but when I am reading a book with one I need the next book immediately, but with this one I’m just going to have to wait for Unbroken (expected release date is August 2014)

A good start to a new series with likable characters, especially Morgan who was a good comedy aspect to the book. I liked the mystery surrounding some of the characters which gave the read a little more depth, especially Jer – yes more to be said about him me thinks.

Overall a good read and although not an original plotline it was well executed and gave it that slightly different angle in order to entice the reader. I shall look forward to this developing further as the series continues.
