"Broken Road" by Addison Kline
Rating: ☆☆☆☆☆

You have to read this one if you’ve read Black Horse. Heck even if you haven’t you should read. I was still on an emotional wreck from Black Horse. Broken Road picks up with a very pregnant Averi and Colt trying with the rest of their family to move on after the destruction and death caused by Black Horse. Black Horse having been Colt’s father and cause of so many deaths and other evils – Averi’s parents and brother Seth, the death of Colt’s mom, trying to burn Averi and resulting in severe burns.
Jimmy, Colt’s half brother isn’t about to let Colt and Averi live happily ever after. Jimmy wants Colt and Averi’s brothers dead and he wants Averi for himself. Jimmy follows in his father’s footsteps to convince the Seventy Devils into going after and killing Averi’s brothers, uncle, and Colt.
From the start, my heart was racing as we see Cheyenne desperately trying to contact her ex-boyfriend Randy who is Averi’s brother. Randy is having another one night stand while ignoring Cheyenne. He continues to ignore Cheyenne and her attempts to reach out. Cheyenne is Randy’s kryptonite and she is endangered as a pawn when the Devils use her to try to get to Randy and the rest of Averi’s family.
And back to being an emotional wreck, as I was trying to figure out what was going on. As the story progresses, we see a lot of evil and darkness in what Jimmy and the Devils do. They seem to be everywhere including in the police force and they have no regard for anyone or the damage they do. We also see Averi and her family and friends gather together to protect themselves and end the terror. They aren’t afraid to stand up against Jimmy and do what is right.
Jimmy’s madness is his undoing causing more mayhem and, Averi and Colt to lose some really good friends. In the end, Averi has a very fitting Christmas gift for Colt to bring the Broken Road home.
