Jaycee and Rachel were best friends. But that was before... before that terrible night at the old house. Before Rachel shut Jaycee out. Before Jaycee chose Skyler over Rachel.

Rachel's text is the first clue - starting Jaycee on a search that leads to a shocking secret.

Taylor Edwards’ family might not be the closest-knit - everyone is a little too busy and overscheduled - but for the most part, they get along just fine. Then Taylor’s dad gets devastating news, and her parents decide that the family will spend one last summer all together at their old lake house in the Pocono Mountains. Crammed into a place much smaller and more rustic than they are used to, they begin to get to know each other again. And Taylor discovers that the people she thought she had left behind haven’t actually gone anywhere.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 487
It was a hot summer day when I met him on the construction site next to my parents' house. Under the sweat and dirt, Manning Sutter was as handsome as the sun was bright. He was older, darker, experienced. I wore a smiley-face t-shirt and had never even been kissed. I was too young, he said. I would wait. But I'd learn that no matter what you achieve in life, it means nothing if you suffer the heartbreak that comes with falling for someone you can never have. Because even though I saw Manning first, that didn't matter. My older sister saw him next.

Publisher's Summary
Allie lost everything the night her boyfriend, Trip, died in a horrible car accident - including her memory of the event. As their small town mourns his death, Allie is afraid to remember because doing so means delving into what she’s kept hidden for so long: the horrible reality of their abusive relationship.
When the police reopen the investigation, it casts suspicion on Allie and her best friend, Blake, especially as their budding romance raises eyebrows around town. Allie knows she must tell the truth. Can she reach deep enough to remember that night so she can finally break free? Debut writer Jennifer Shaw Wolf takes readers on an emotional ride through the murky waters of love, shame, and, ultimately, forgiveness.

I love Jennifer!!
I read dead girls don't lie first, not realizing she had wrote another book. And it became my favorite book ever in the whole wide world! I love murder mystery kinda books and when I found out about Breaking beautiful, I bought the book without knowing anything about it. But I'm not much of a reader so I found it on audible, and listened to it in two days. That was a great twist at the end and I loved this book. If I could, I would rate it 100stars not just five. Jennifer shaw wolf is my favorite author and she inspires me, I can't wait until she writes another book, hopefully she will. I also read dead girls don't lie as a book and got it on audible too, it still amazes me and I read it in 2016. Let's just see how long this book stays in my head, Love you Jennifer!!

Listen to a sample to see if you like the narrator
What would have made Breaking Beautiful better?
The protagonist was so whiny, secretive, and selfish that it was tough to be sympathetic.
What do you think your next listen will be?
The Ocean at the End of the Lane by Neil Gaiman
How did the narrator detract from the book?
She has a nice voice, but she pauses every two or three words, and sometimes her mouth is so dry that there's a distracting clicking sound.
What reaction did this book spark in you? Anger, sadness, disappointment?
Frustration!
Any additional comments?
Not finishing books is something I try to avoid, but this one was very tough to slog through. I had to increase the reading speed by at least 2x to be able to tolerate the narrator, and the frustration at the protagonist just made it worse.

Audio--good, story--meh
Would you say that listening to this book was time well-spent? Why or why not?
This was a DNF for me. I just didn't care about the characters enough to finish. I was able to figure out what had happened without needing to hear the full story.
