This is my first Kate Squires novel and I have no regrets. When I read the blurb, I figured that this story would have a lot to offer. It was exactly the kind of story I was hoping for. ‘When Love Breaks’ is a story of redemption, forgiveness, healing and love. It is one of those stories that made me realise that I need to appreciate every moment of my life and to be grateful for my blessings.

From the moment I began reading, I knew I would have a hard time putting it down. I was intrigued by every aspect of this story. The characters, the romance and the plot twist all made for a heartwarming and unforgettable story. I fell in love with Logan and Eloras’ story.

Logan Turner, a former soldier, met in a horrific motor vehicle accident that left him without the use of his legs. His life has not been the same since. He is angry, brooding and completely closed off. He didn’t want to be around anyone as he felt his life was not worth living. His brother, however, had other ideas. He was determined to see his brother claim back his independence and so he hired a nurse aide to take care of him. Logan on the other hand was not inclined to play nice and as a result, he ran of every nurse maid that his brother hired. That all changed, however the day Elora Foster entered his life.of every nurse maid that his brother hired.

Elora was not looking forward to taking care of Logan based on the feedback she received from the previous nurse aides. However, she was determined to make the best of it. She is patient, caring and determined. She was not about to give up on Logan. Despite his attempts of being mean to her, Elora sensed that there was more to Logan than meets the eye. She totally shook up his world. She helped him to see that despite his disability he had a lot to be thankful for. She made him feel alive again.
The story is told from alternate POVs. This made me understand the inner turmoil that Logan was battling. He was a very complex character. There was so much depth to him and I enjoyed uncovering all his layers.

I enjoyed the author's writing style. I was completely caught up in the story. I felt as if I was a part of the story, experiencing it all through the eyes of the characters. I loved that their romance took time to develop. They never counted on the growing attraction between them. They would encounter complications in their romance that would prove to be heart breaking. I liked that it all worked out in the end.

This was a beautiful story which I highly recommend to anyone who loves romance.
