Review
The Heartbreakers and Heroes box set is full of swoony romance stories that made me smile, giggle and get a little heated. Each one was great on it’s own and as a whole the anthology delivered an entertaining collection of heartbreaking men and heroes and the women who love them.
I really enjoyed all of these love stories but Once a Heartbreaker by T.J. Kline and Reforming the Heartbreaker by Christine Glover but my ABSOLUTE FAVORITE was How To Be A Heartbreaker by Codi Gary. I have always loved Codi’s book for her ability to mix a good angsty story with a sweet small town romance and the second chance love of when action hero comes home and moves in next door to the girl whose heart he doesn’t even know he broke delivers just that.
If you are looking to dive into a whole bunch of alpha hero stories or if you want to read one here or there to break up reading full length books than this anthology is just perfect for you. There was not one story I didn’t enjoy so you really cannot go wrong.
