How do you make yourself fall in love with someone?
After his family friend, Chloe Ryan, is traumatized by a disturbed ex-boyfriend, Luke Hamilton is “encouraged” to step up and be the kind of partner she needs.
Problem is, he’s never been in love before.
He’s not one to give up, though. His stubborn, competitive nature, mixed with the dutiful loyalty he inherited from his parents, makes it impossible for him to say no. And romancing Chloe becomes priority number one.
But his feisty contender gives him the challenge of a lifetime when she’d rather argue with him than accept a simple compliment. Chloe demands honest, genuine feelings from someone before she’ll even think about opening her heart again, and since Luke refuses to back down from his determined quest, he decides to grow some feelings.
Except, uh, yeah… That’s easier said than done since he has no idea how to even begin the process of falling.
***
Chloe is a simple woman with simple wants. All she’d like is to work her job, find a partner to share her life with, and then grow a family with him.
But apparently, that’s just too much to ask for.
After her ex kidnaps and terrorizes her, Chloe is suddenly put on six weeks of leave from her job to recover, she can’t handle it when anyone touches her, and her big dream of the simple life seems more impossible to reach than ever.
Until Luke bulldozes his way into the picture, determined to help her through her rough patch and promising her everything she’s ever wanted.
The problem is Chloe loved Luke way back when she was young, and no one’s ever broken her heart the way he did when he didn’t even notice her in return. No way is she going to risk more heartbreak at his hands now. Chloe becomes just as determined to push him away as he is to stick by her side.
Let the battle of wills begin.

My Thoughts:
Talk about a gut-wrenching angst filled love story. I had to sit on Every Time My Heart Breaks for a bit before deciding if I enjoyed it or not. The beginning 1/4 of the book was heartbreaking and hard to read. The middle book was sweet and I loved watching Luke and Chloe finally give into their feelings. Then came the ending( not the epilogue) but the end of the story. It was gut wrenching. THis is the first book I have read out of the series. I'm kind of glad that I have not read previous books because had I done hat, I would be really upset at the author's choice. Despite the ending, I would recommend it. I did love Luke and Chloe together.
Author Bio:
Linda writes romance fiction from YA to adult, contemporary to fantasy. Most Kage stories lean more toward the lighter, sillier side with a couple of meaningful moments thrown in. Focuses more on entertainment value and emotional impact. She likes the drama and crazy, over-the-top plots that make you cry, then laugh, get mad then sigh happily. Most stories are explicit but a few are sex-free. No dark or taboo topics, but many are not safe stories either.
