It was fine. I wish it would have ended with everyone being told her secret. That would have been a fun scene!
I think the best parts were pretty much whenever Taylor spoke and the nicknames he had for her, they constantly had me laughing!!

If you are looking for a light hearted, fun, sexy reverse harem type of read, these two books are for you!
These books are heavy on spicy and light on plot. This does not make for a bad book like some may assume. The spicy times, ahem, is instant and does not let up throughout the book. There is a storyline, but it is not the focus of this series.
The beginning authors note literally says:
“The Break Volumes are a fun, sexy, and short series. Just to make sure you understand, there is a LOT of sex in this book. Like 90% of this is sex and the other 10% is basically working around how to get back to having sex.”
So, are you a lots of smut, not a lot of plot type of reader? Than this one is for you. 😉 • There is group activities too!

In this book Jamie and the guys go on a cruise and meet the family of one of the guys. Being stuck on a boat with family that doesn't know about their unique relationship -- what could go wrong? Then in the second half we get a glimpse at the group's future and their happy-for-now ending (again with some family drama due to their unique relationship). Filled with steamy fun and drama, you won't be bored with this great read!
I've read the originals and really enjoyed this extended version, especially the epilogues from the guys POVs.

the perfect pallet cleanser!
Honestly, this story flew right by and I’m so sad it’s over. Oddly enough considering the plot wasn’t heavy, things didn’t seem to really drag on. You got to experience the lives of seemingly carefree college students unfold and explore an uncommon situation. Lucy isn’t kidding when she says these are packed with mostly spice, and you won’t hear a single complaint from me on that! I loved that each guy was unique yet they all sort of played off of each other too. Jamie was definitely one lucky girl!!

OMG, this was a hot read. From the moment that I started reading, I was unable to put this book down. It moves along at a pace which makes for an enjoyable read and the story hooks you and you cant put it down as you cant wait to read what is going to happen next. You are going to love these characters no matter what they do. They will grab you and you want to see them succeed in what they want. This is a must read book that needs to be on your TBR list, no doubt about it.

Sexy, Sexy, Sexy!!!
WOW! Lucy really knows how to write sexy, steamy stories that keep up fully captivated, highly entertained and changing our panties with every few chapters.
The characters are phenomenal and will have you falling head over heels for them and the storyline will enthrall you and keep you begging for more.
This is a fantastic story that should be read at night when you can sink fully into its steamy depths and fall asleep satisfied!
Highly recommend.

What a sweet ending to the Break series!
Jamie and her four men got a happily ever after + an
extra addition!
Spring Break had all the great attributes - thrill, smut
and a lot of love!
@authorlucysmoke never let's you down with those sex
scenes, & I don't know how she makes it different
every time!
Dex was a little dominant, thrill seeker bossy pants! But
you loved him anyway!
Dare, Cody and Taylor all had their uniques qualities
and were all fantastically written.
It was a lovely quick read!

Good
Jamie finally tells the family of her , Cody, Taylor, Darren of what thier relationship is. Everyone ia shocked and one group of family separate from Dexter wont accept it . With the secret out she can live her life ... Good book just wish the author shared everyone excitement at her news at end.

Love This Series!
I could not stop reading this series! I loved the storyline, the love within all the characters, and how they loved their way! I ended up reading entire series in two days it held me captive; I had to know how it ended. What an ending it was! Thank you for creating such a beautiful story!

Loved it!
I read this series when it first came out. Reading it again was amazing. I loved the epilogues from the guys' POV.

Perfect ending for Jamie and the guys
Came for the smut, stayed for the smut and was weirdly super invested in their relationship.
Love those 4 overprotective, dominant alphas.

Another Thirstyyyy Read!
4.5 stars!
You didn’t always get what you wanted, but you could get by with what you needed.
Once again Lucy Smoke has knocked it out of the park with the finale of the Break series! She may just be the queen of steamy reads, I gotta say. Break Volume 2 jumps a couple of years ahead, but no matter how quick of a pace this book is, it never once feels fast paced!
Were once again reminded of why we love these characters so much. I could not put this one down even if I tried, and I'm sad to see these characters go. I loved reading them and watching them live their life and live it how they wanted too! This mmmmf RH will grab you from the beginning and leave you wanting more. From the STEAM - it’s so thick you’ll question if you’re breathing - to how passionate these characters are, to the nail biting uncertainty with some scenes, all the way to the very last chapter that just has you swooning and going “aww” and wanting more. It ended PERFECTLY, and yet I still want more.
This was an incredibly fun series to read, and one that I highly recommend to readers who need a break - wink wink - in between those angsty or dark books. It’s fast, it’s enjoyable, and once again, it’s hot.

Break Volume 2 packs a serious punch when it comes to heat — the spice level is sky high, and fans of steamy, spicy tension will not be disappointed. Lucy Smoke knows how to bring the heat, and if you’re reading for the spice and intensity, this volume delivers in full.
That said, while Spring Break and Lucky Break were entertaining and full of drama, the pacing and character development felt a bit uneven. Some scenes felt repetitive, and I found myself wishing for deeper growth or resolution in a few storylines. There’s no shortage of chemistry between the characters — but the emotional arcs didn’t always keep up with the physical tension.
Still, if you're here for angst, heat, and a bold continuation of the Break series, this one will scratch that itch. Just be prepared for a wild ride that leans more spicy than substantial.
