You don’t have to read (or re-read) to Easy first because a lot of the story is covered, though it is through different eyes.
ZACHARY WEBBER NARRATOR PLUS
Every Lucas/Jacqueline scene is included in Breakable, plus bonus scenes. Some of the things I wondered about from Easy: Does Lucas have any friends (besides Francis the cat?) How did he end up at the nightclub dancing with Jacqueline? Why did he keep up the Lucas/Landon deception for so long? Why was Lucas so distant before winter break? And did Lucas know about “Operation Bad Boy Phase?” All of these questions and more are answered in Breakable. It is so cool to get Lucas’ perspective of the events in Easy and to fill in some of the blanks about this mysterious tattooed and pierced “bad boy.” I have to say all my questions about Lucas were answered in Breakable. The stories hinted at from Easy are fleshed out and we see the journey that led him to be the man he is with Jacqueline. Landon’s life unraveled in a heartbeat and that’s spelled out in all its glory. If you’ve read Easy you know that there is some terrible tragedy in Landon’s past, and hearing about it from Landon’s perspective is about as heart-wrenching as you might expect. Lucas’s chapters cover the present day, including the college years and his relationship with Jacqueline. Landon’s chapters deal with the past, up until he leaves for college.
This book answers all your burning questions about Lucas, and if you are a Lucas fan (*raises hand*) this book is for you! Breakable is two stories in one, and Landon/Lucas are two halves of the same coin. Plus, we get to see the events from Easy from Lucas’ perspective.
ZACHARY WEBBER NARRATOR SERIES
In the second book in the Contours of the Heart series we get Lucas’ backstory. She falls for her savior, Lucas, who has his own battle scars. Recommended for females of any age who are old enough to deal with the subject matter and have an affinity for bad boys.Įasy fans rejoice: Breakable is finally out! Easy is Jacqueline’s story, about a college girl with a broken heart who is reeling after an attack. It's Book 2 in the series and can stand alone, but I'd highly recommend you start with Book 1 and hear Jacqueline's story first. There's some fighting between students and also rape. There's several kissy-feely scenes and some fairly explicit sex scenes as well. OVERALL - This book contains quite a bit of cursing, especially F-bombs. And when he does the emotional flashback Lucas has of the horrible event, wow! Just wow.
He does a great job with the voice of younger Landon, an old man and Landon's country-boy best friend. His voice is sexy, sensitive and emotional. And, yes, by the end of this book you will have answers to all the questions about Lucas that were left unanswered in "Easy." PERFORMANCE - One of my new favorite narrators. The other timeline is told by Lucas, beginning sometime during his senior year in college when he meets Jacqueline.
His happy childhood was interrupted by a horrific event when he was 13, after which time he began going by his middle name and became a partying "bad boy." This book alternates between two timelines - one about Landon, beginning immediately after that event and continuing till high school graduation. And did I mention he's HOT? (swoon!) For those who have not heard "Easy," Landon Lucas Maxfield (main character) is emotionally complicated.
First he's obsessed with meeting Jacqueline and then he just wants to love, protect and cherish her. Lucas has the sexual preoccupation you might expect of a college student, but he's also very sensitive and romantic. They both cover pretty much the same territory but, since this is told from Lucas' male perspective, it didn't seem repetitive. STORY (new adult romance) - I really loved this story. Confused who is hotter - Lucas or the narrator!!
