⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5 out of 5

Kellan and Mia’s story is a tough one. They both have scars so deep that they feel as if they are destined to be alone for eternity, unable to trust easily, broken from their pasts, they find themselves pushed together by their closest friends, but their pasts come back and cause havoc with them. This time though, Kellan could lose the love of his life. He has to make a difficult decision and it almost breaks him.

I loved this story of Kellan and Mia. They are both awkward and broken, but they are perfect for each other. Kellan will not only have to fight for the woman that he loves, but also for his little girl when her being threatened of being taken from him brings a whole new secret to light. Now the Doughty family is brought together and will fight to help Kellen, not only in his custody battle for Hallie, but for Mia as well. This story was detailed in the past of Kellan, but not as much for Mia’s past. I am looking forward to more of the Beautifully Brutal Series to come. I give this book a 5-star review.
