BLURB
I spent six weeks screwing Austin Wright’s brains out and all I got was this broken heart.
He can’t be trusted. Not with my body or my heart. Yet, two years have passed and I still crave him like an addict needing a fix.
The last time we tried this, it nearly ruined me. I know I should run and never look back. But his dark haunted eyes and razor blade smile speak to my soul. His touch sets my body on fire. And we all know what happens when you light gasoline. Someone is bound to get burned.

MY REVIEW
The Wright Mistake by K.A. Linde is a Hot Contemporary Romance focuses on Austin Wright. Part of her Wright series, this is a standalone with cross-over characters from The Wright Brother & The Wright Boss. Austin, the alcoholic jackass of the Wright family had his chance with small town Ohio girl, Julia... "It had been nice, but it hadn't been right."
Told in first person from dual perspectives, this steady page turner has more to offer than steamy romance. Although "Preferably with a lot of mind-blowing sex." & fun definitely play a part, this story has more depth than first meets the eye. Through love & loss, both broken in their own way, Austin & Julia are working to fix each other & to find a way to fix themselves. Close friendships "Girlfriends are here to cheer you on and commiserate when sh*t goes down. Also, for Buffy marathons, ice cream dates, and shopping." & family bonds shine thorough this multi-layered story line that will have you blushing & laughing out loud one moment & gasping in shock, teary-eyed in the next - twists you'll never see coming. "...you never know how much time you have together. Forgiving someone is easier than living without them."
I was so happily surprised by the way Linde beautifully combined a hot romance with gut-wrenching, heartstring pulling life consuming tragedy & ability to overcome addiction.
Plus, who couldn't adore a story that includes a pink-sequined unicorn named Waffle?
ARC received in exchange for an honest review.
