Story
The deal was sealed the moment she stepped onto that stage. It was like seeing a ghost: sunshine-blonde hair, pale skin, azure eyes that held a thousand secrets. I didn’t know what caused her to end up on that auction block, and I didn’t care. All I knew was that I had to have her - no matter the cost. A million dollars later, she became mine. Mine to break. Mine to use. Mine to keep.

Story
Welcome to Corium University, where the most dangerous criminals in the world send their offspring. Assassins, mafia leaders, arms dealers, and art thieves—you name it, this college houses them. Nothing can touch us here. The only rule: No one can die. I knew she would be here. Aspen was my enemy in every shape of the word. A liar, a thief. I wanted revenge for my family, revenge against her father. I knew the rules. Knew I couldn’t kill her, but I could hurt her. I could make her wish she never came to Corium. She wasn’t made for this place.

Story
He was more than a bully, he was what living nightmares were made of. It started as a childish game played between two friends, which ended in heartbreak. She knew him once. A long time ago they may have even called each other friends. That was before she moved away, before her mother married his father, and before an entire life fell apart. She lost friends, popularity, and a future. This was supposed to be a fresh start, but it was real life hell.

Story
Rivals since before birth, there has never been a time when my family hasn't hated the Lockwoods and their daughter Harlow. But she made it personal, no longer just a rivalry between our parents. Now she's here, at Bayshore University, without her family's protection. There's nothing to stop us from getting our revenge on her, no one to tell us enough is enough. And so my brothers and I have devised a plan. We'll break her, have her falling at her knees for us in no time, and then we'll send her back to her family with a warning: Cross the Bishops again and you'll pay.

She was a shy little virgin, looking to rebel. I was a bad accident waiting to happen. I’m the bad boy your parents warn you about. I’ve been to prison, killed for someone I love, and now I’m suffering through college. Then I see her…sweet, so naïve it hurts, and of course beautiful. She’s scared of me the moment we lock eyes, but beneath that fear is curiosity. From that moment on I’m consumed with a need to make her mine, to claim her...but when my past collides with my future, will I risk the chance of going back to prison to protect yet another person I love?

Choosing to let her go was the hardest thing in his life, but he wanted her to be happy, safe, protected. Then everything changed. The moment someone tried to hurt her he knew he had to step in. Grace might not have been his, but she would always be under his protection.

The second our eyes connected, I felt the shift in the air. The crackle of fire igniting between us. He was dark, dangerous, and secretive. He came into my life like a storm, ripping apart everything I believed in, everything I thought I knew. With his mischievous smirk, stunning looks, and alluring behavior, I should’ve ran as far away from him as I could. But I was stupid. I trapped myself in his web.

I made a vow to protect her when we were just kids. First, from the monsters hiding under the bed and then the ones roaming the world freely. My obsession with Dove wasn’t normal. It toed the line on psychotic, but my love for her overshadowed that. I’d killed, destroyed, and hurt those who had done her wrong. I’d watched her for years wanting to claim her but refusing to. I was both her guardian angel and a demon lurking in the shadows. She was mine, even though she didn’t know it yet.

Publisher's Summary
They say there is always a calm before the storm. A time when you think you’re safe, protected from the destruction that you know is going to eventually come. Harper was that calm.
And I?
I was the motherf--king storm.
As kids, we were best friends. She was the light to my darkness. I used to protect her from her bullies. But now, I’ll become her most feared one. Seeing her for the first time after three years was like a bucket of ice water being poured on me. It chilled me to the bone, making me irrational, angry. No longer is she a little girl but a grown woman with curves and eyes that pierce my black soul.
No one knows the darkness that lingers under the surface. All they see is my smile, my charismatic charm. I’m the all-American golden boy.
Having her back in my life is awakening something inside of me. She reminds me of everything good. Everything I’ll never have. And I refuse to let her stay.
She has to go, and the only person dark enough, dirty enough to scare her away is me.
Breaking Harper isn’t as easy. I thought I knew everything, turns out others are just as good at hiding their secrets as I am.
Damaged, dark, and falling off the deep end. Will I break her? Will I break us?
Sometimes, the scariest monsters aren’t those that hide in the dark. Sometimes, they’re the ones hidden right in plain sight...like me.
Please note: This is a stand-alone dark bully romance. This audiobook contains scenes that may be triggering to some listeners. This is not a YA romance novel and should be listened to only by those who are 18 or older.

Harper has some redeeming qualities
Harper is a strong character since she has to deal with Warren. Some people may seen her as weak but the reality is she has a strong backbone. Even through everything he put her through she loves him. He loves her too, in his own way. Even though he is cruel, he has some redeeming qualities. so you don't totally hate him.

very much romantic. and innocent
Warren and Harper have a past together that was very much romantic. and innocent. All of that changes one night. Now Warren wants nothing to do with her. He is cruel, mean but also very possessive towards her. Love the darkness of the story with the light moments in between. Happy ending for the couple.

Nope. Nope. Nope.
Nope. Nope. Nope. This book starts with a clear cut case of rape, not bullying or even dubcon. I don't know if the authors are going to romanticize it or not (well, yeah I do) , but I don't find anything about nonconsensual sex to be romance. Don't care to read on to find out. DNF @12%.
I received an audio version of this book from the author in exchange for an honest review.

Miscommunication at its finest! I wanted to strangle that character for the most part, but it all comes out in the end. Breaking You is a truly dark bully read. Cant wait for book three! Hope it's just as good as book one and two.

Unstoppable Love and Unwavering Hope
This book is incredibly heart wrenching and emotionally unstable and yet it is a story that will show you exactly what it means to love another person. Beyond the issues and the miscommunication, the emotions will drown and infiltrate every part of you. You will FEEL it all as you learn more about this very interesting couple. Beck and Hallman prove yet again how ingenious they are and how very true to real life they are in these incredible stories. This is a truly inspirational journey that you do not want to miss out on!
The narration on this audiobook is beyond fabulous! These are new narrators to me, and I fell in love with their creative talent. The pure and deep emotion from Olivia Amayo blew me away. She is a fabulous narrator whose voice is very evoctive. Blake Richard's voice is so deep and dreamy that I swear I felt it in my very bones. This audiobook is so mind-blowing to listen to that you will forever be changed. You will never forget anything about it.

Too Much of the Same
I have to be honest and say that this book was very difficult to listen to at times because it was bordered-lined sexual abuse and rape. If this happened in real life, then the girl would be able to press charges. I, however, was still intrigued by the story. Shame on me, right? I’m not sure how you can call what Warren had was love. It was quite brutal.
I also don’t think this book was very original as it was almost identical “in theory” to book one of the series. The use of profanity was excessive. I had to stop listening a few times because it became too much.
I still gave it pretty good ratings as the narrators did a good job. I don’t think I’m going to listen to the next two books as it sounds pretty excessive already, but I am curious to see what the two boys were doing when they said someone saw them. So, I might just change my mind. 🤣

Entertaining!
I thought the female narrator read a bit slow. In some parts her tone was good, but other parts lacked emotion. The male narrator was better in my opinion at bring life to the narration. I slightly increased the speed and it helped.
The story was a bully romance and a second chance romance. Once again I was surprised by the twists. This series is definitely entertaining. Looking forward to the next audiobook.

Loved!
Breaking You is book 2 in the Blackthorn elite series
and wheww Warren is such a jerk but ohh so hot!
if you love bully romances as much as i do then this is definitely the book for you!
warren and harper were friends before until it turned into something more between them and loved blossomed until warren thought that harper did something that was unforgivable and he started to hate her. when he finally see her again, he realizes that he still hates her and decides to punish her for what he thinks that she did to cause their downfall.
if you've read book 1 in the series then you know Parker was a major douche, but oohh boy oh boy Warren definitely beat him in that area. Warren definitely does not hold back on his hate when it comes to Harper and damn that made it even better when he began to fall on his ass for her!
i'm glad that Warren came to his senses and everything worked out for them! i absolutely loved the ending to this book! it is definitely one of my faves!
i seriously love JL and Cassy's dark side and i absolutely love these characters! i can't wait for the next book in the series!! Easton and Cameron are MINE lol and incase y'all didn't know Parker and Warren are also MINE.
this series and this book is a definite 5 star for me! and i highly recommend this!

Not for me
This was too much miscommunication/misunderstanding (95% of the book) and not enough groveling (literally 1.5 chapters) for my liking. The sex is dub-con at best (blackmail isn’t consent), and the relationship remains toxic, even into the epilogue. Warren is an abusive arsehole and is only interested in the h once he realizes In the last few pages of the book that the h was in fact virginal and virtuous before they reconnected. h is a doormat and seems happy to be treated as one. The main reason I am not into this ‘romance’ is because the H really doesn’t know the h at all. If he did he would have at least confronted her about the past, communicated (even in anger or for 5 seconds) about what happened. He doesn’t really know or understand her and for that they don’t deserve a HEA. I wouldn’t trust him with a baby or as a partner for the h.

Romance
I enjoyed both the narrators.
I was hooked from the very beginning all the way until the very end. It is a dark bully romance with several twists and turns. This book has a captivating storyline with lots of revenge, secrets and lies

Breaking You
Breaking You kept me on the edge of my seat right from the very beginning all the way until the very end. It is a dark bully romance with several twists and turns. I love this story as much as I did Hating You even though Warren is cruel and not a very likable character. This book has a captivating storyline with lots of revenge, secrets and lies. I look forward to listening to more of this series. Blake Richard and Olivia Amayo both did an amazing job bringing this story to life. I received this audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this unbiased review.

Story
Rivals since before birth, there has never been a time when my family hasn't hated the Lockwoods and their daughter Harlow. But she made it personal, no longer just a rivalry between our parents. Now she's here, at Bayshore University, without her family's protection. There's nothing to stop us from getting our revenge on her, no one to tell us enough is enough. And so my brothers and I have devised a plan. We'll break her, have her falling at her knees for us in no time, and then we'll send her back to her family with a warning: Cross the Bishops again and you'll pay.

Story
Once upon a time she was my sister’s best friend. I’d always wanted her to be mine, that is until the night everything changed and my love morphed into pure hatred. Now I’m a vile bastard with a chip on his shoulder. Cruel black hate is all I know. My only focus f--king my way through Blackthorn’s elite women and partying. Then she shows up at Blackthorn. She’s different now, quiet and reserved, but just as beautiful as she was the day she disappeared. One look and my focus changes. I decided then that my time for revenge is now. No way does she get to enjoy herself.

Story
He was more than a bully, he was what living nightmares were made of. It started as a childish game played between two friends, which ended in heartbreak. She knew him once. A long time ago they may have even called each other friends. That was before she moved away, before her mother married his father, and before an entire life fell apart. She lost friends, popularity, and a future. This was supposed to be a fresh start, but it was real life hell.

Story
For years, I’ve watched her - followed her, stalked her. At first, it was about protecting her, keeping her safe and out of harm's way. Then it became a full-blown obsession. I vowed to never touch her again, to protect her from everyone, including myself. But when enemies lurking in the shadows threaten to take all that away, I know I’ll do anything to keep my butterfly safe...even if it means betraying the only family I’ve ever known.

Story
The deal was sealed the moment she stepped onto that stage. It was like seeing a ghost: sunshine-blonde hair, pale skin, azure eyes that held a thousand secrets. I didn’t know what caused her to end up on that auction block, and I didn’t care. All I knew was that I had to have her - no matter the cost. A million dollars later, she became mine. Mine to break. Mine to use. Mine to keep.
