Title: Heartbreaker (Heartbreaker #1)Author: Cole Saint Jaimes
Genre: Contemporary Romance
Publication Date: August 18, 2015
Plot: Aidan
Surf.
Fuck.
Get high.
Sounds like the perfect day to Aidan Callahan. As second-born son to Chicago’s most influential business owner, Aidan’s life has always been about responsibility. Tradition. Toeing the goddamn line. Just do as you’re told, Aidan. Don’t make waves.
Well, screw that. Riding waves is way more fun than making them.
Hawaii is paradise on earth. Smoking hot women. Tiny bikinis. As far as Aidan’s concerned, wild horses couldn’t drag him kicking and screaming back to the windy city. Or at least that’s what he thought.
When his brother crashes his Mercedes, killing himself on impact, Aidan finds himself next in line to the Callahan fortune and all the ties that come with it.
And this time there’s no getting out of it.
Essie
A warm bed.
A steady job.
A brother who loves her.
For Essie Gray, life’s been one hard kick in the teeth after another. With her parents both dead, her brother is her only living relative. That is until Vaughn’s truck is written off, his life snatched away by the careless actions of a rich playboy in a flashy sports car.
Now, the only thing that will bring Essie peace is revenge. She must take what was taken from her. Only when the name Callahan has been wiped from the face of the earth forever will she be able to start living again.
Of course, the new head of the Callahan Corporation isn’t what she expected. Aidan’s sexy and sad, and just as damaged as she is. Will she be able to distance herself enough to accomplish her goal?
After all, ruining a man’s really hard when you find yourself falling for him…
☆✮ My Review ✮☆
☆ I received an ARC via Give Me Books in exchange for an honest review. Thank you! ☆
I know this is completely off point, but....Going into this, I have to admit, that the first thing that captured my eye and interest was the mention of Hawai’i (not “Hawaii” btw). As a woman who was born and lived there all my life, whenever I see book synopsis’ that mention Hawai’i, I immediately am piqued. I know that the book isn’t about my home state, but, it still strikes a humble accord in my mind and heart a smidge. *hehe*
However, that all said. Back to the actual book itself--
For an author debut, this actually was not bad and much better than I could have anticipated. Not bad at all.

It’s always funny how fate can play a game changing hand in the turn of events in one’s life. Sometimes for the good. And sometimes for the bad.
Aiden and Assie both battle feats of tragedy, loss, and personal vendetta; and experience the changing of tides in terms of love, destiny, self awareness and metamorphosis.
It was an ever adjusting shift to see both characters grow and develop as you witness a wide array of dynamics and how the most unlikely of things can link and define you.
Honestly, if you're looking for a smexy, out of the box, and captivating read to keep you comfy all night then this one is for you.
I definitely recommend!!
