Shattered #1
Corazón Herido
Fue amor a primera vista; una historia de amor que se suponía, era para toda la vida. Un corazón joven que no había conocido el verdadero amor, y un alma solitaria en busca de algo real. Esa, era mi alma, y Elizabeth Brown era mi corazón, inocente y lleno de pasión desencadenada. Me hizo creer que el amor podía cambiar todo. Y en realidad, me cambió… Me rompió, me destrozó.
La traición que nunca vi venir, fue como una daga que atravesó mi corazón. En un segundo, mi amor fue reemplazado por un odio y dolor tan profundo, que me llevo a pensar que nunca sería capaz de olvidar.
Pero, ¿quién iba a pensar que incluso los corazones heridos pueden amar? ¿Quién hubiera creído que, en unos ojos sin esperanza, brillaría de nuevo una luz radiante?
-Voy a hacer que se enamore de mi otra vez. Y luego, voy a destruirla, así como ella me destruyó…

Beautiful story
I received this book in exchange of honest review. Well, this is the first book I read from this author and I liked, but, yes there is a but, I love this type of story because I do believe in love at first sight, second chances no too much but that’s just me, for books and specially couples like Kameron and Elizabeth I’ll go for. When I read the synopsis and see that revenge it’s involved I dive into it. And yes, revenge happens but it’s not the most of the book, I guess I was expecting more drama-revenge and ending reading more about the love story and how they meet and fell in love and who doesn’t love a good love story and a very happy ending? I know I do. My only complaint it’s that the ending happens too fast. Do I recommend this book? Definitely, you’ll find love, misunderstandings, revenge, friendship and a beautiful happy ending.
Thanks to the author for the chance to read and review this book.
Recibí este libro a cambio de una opinión honesta. Bueno, este es el primer libro que leo de esta autora y me ha gustado, pero, si hay un pero, amo este tipo de historias porque creo en el amor a primera vista, las segundas oportunidades no tanto pero eso es algo que aplico a mi persona, para los libros y en especial parejas como Kameron y Elizabeth me encantan. Cuando leí la sinopsis y vi que había venganza en la trama me metí de lleno a leerla. Y si bien es verdad que hay venganza no es lo principal del libro, quizá yo esperaba más drama en el tema venganza y terminamos leyendo más la historia de amor, de cómo se conocen y enamoran. Y quien no ama una buena historia de amor con un final feliz? Yo los amo. Mi único pero es que el final se me hace muy apresurado. Recomendaría este libro? Definitivamente si, encontraran amor, malos entendidos, venganza, amistad y un final precioso.
Doy las gracias a la autora por permitirme leer y reseñar este libro.

I received this book in exchange for my honest review. Thank you for the opportunity!
So I finished the book in one night…afterwards I needed some time to recollect. I don’t know how to explain it. I needed a brake until I could read anything else, I needed to digest everything I’ve read. The entire story, from the first page until the next one, was…perfect description of real life. It’s the first time for me, that I felt everything both of the characters felt. The smiles, the happiness and then the pure heartbreak. I mean, everyone had a deception in love at some point, so it’s easy to feel the same as the characters. But, apart from that, since I’ve first read a book written by Diana Nixon, she always managed to transpose me into the story with just a few words.
“The only true love is love at first sight; second sight dispels it.” – Israel Zangwill
We’ve all been there, love at first sight. So perfect, so unique, you don’t know when it hits it. You just can stop looking and thinking about that one person. This was the case between Kameron Grayson and Elizabeth Brown. Love at first sight, but not an easy love, no. The problem was Elizabeth was dating Kameron’s half-brother Kolby. But, will that keep Kameron away from Elizabeth?
Even if Kameron has a bumpy past since when he was in high school, and people knew him like the type to go out with all the girls, Liz gave him chance. Maybe tutoring her helped, maybe finding the truth about Kolby also helped, but this two together are just perfect. They hit it off from the beginning, a love like theirs you cannot dissimulate. The problem is, some people keep trying to split them apart, and at some point they succeed.
This is the part where I will stop with the spoilers. I kept reading I was asking myself, wow is Diana really going to give us only love between these lines? Then it happen, the words, the scenario developing, and the tears with ugly hiccups. I didn’t knew what hit me honestly. The pain I felt for Kameron half of the book was so intense…then I got Liz side of the story, and I was freaking shocked. But the book was true perfection. I know I’m repeating myself, but I loved it so much! I highly recommend it. You should go read it, NOW!

“The only true love is love at first sight; second sight dispels it”
Love at first sight it’s a very rare thing, most of us wonder if it even exists because few people see it or feel it. But, all of us had the first love, that love that strikes you and change you forever, the thing that makes you mature and defines the way you will love from that moment on. If you were happy you will love again and powerfully, if you’re heart got broken you will lose the trust and with that you will never give yourself again.
When Kameron (I like the name!!) sees Elizabeth he knows he is screwed. He can’t take his eyes of her, he is so captivated by her he doesn’t care about anything else, and he just has to be near her. She is so beautiful and fragile, and looks so lost; his instinct to protect her grows instantly (among other “growing” things ).
Elizabeth heard a lot of things about Kameron Grayson, the hot guy with chocolate eyes who broke hearts everywhere he goes, but she never thought she will fall for him that hard and that quickly. She was his step-brother’s girlfriend and she couldn’t hurt him, but every time she sees Kameron her pulse raise so high and the butterflies in her belly make her dizzy.
The way their love grows and the relationship between them consolidates is very beautiful. Reading it gave me a feeling of happiness and brought back pleasant memories.
“For the first time ever, I finally felt complete. I didn’t want to wake from the dream that Elizabeth had created around me; I just wanted to stay there with her, for as long as the rest of the world would allow us to”.
They are perfect for each other, their love is pure, they belong to each other, they created their own world, their happy place and it’s so amazing. I was so happy for them, I smiled all the time. I think these characters are two of the most beautiful that Diana created, you can see how they fit together, he is the perfect man , offering his support and loving her in the most tender way and she is like magic , gorgeous and so full of life , like an angel. I love them!
But life is very hard and a love like that needs to be fight for, so they have to pass the ultimate test to be together forever. And Kameron makes a big mistake, one that will change them and will shatter them.
“The betrayal that I never saw coming, was like a dagger straight through my heart. In the blink of an eye, my love was replaced by endless hate and pain that I thought I would never be able to forge”.
The strange thing about love is that you think it’s strong but it needs one misunderstanding to lose trust and destroy all the happiness. When Kameron saw Elizabeth in his brother’s bed, naked, he assumed the worst and left her. He didn’t let her time to explain what happened, he didn’t thought for a second that she might be innocent, he lost himself in jealousy and hate and that broke them both.
But they were meant to be together because four years later they meet again and they have another chance to repair the damage.
““I will make her fall for me again. And then, I will ruin her, just like she ruined me…”
I understood Kameron’s pain, I really did, imagine to see the person you love most in the world be naked in someone else’s bed, what would be your first thought? Yet, I felt very sad for Elizabeth too, because she didn’t even knew what wrong had she done to deserve such suffering and hatred from his part.
The second part of the book was so sad; it brought tears in my eyes. I was so happy in the first part and now I was suffocated from sadness. Diana you played with my heart really bad
Kameron desire for revenge is huge but as you will see while you will read this book, love is much stronger and one can lose its head very easily. The feelings confuse you and you will not know what to do next. Love and hate fight each other and love always wins.
To the end of the book, I was surprised to learn a new thing. Something that will erase all the things that happened before and will contour a new beginning. They have to decide if they could forgive each other and all that remains is love, pure as in the very beginning, love and safety for their hearts or if their souls are so shattered they couldn’t be fixed anymore.
I talked too much about this story, I know, but I didn’t finish) I can’t. I have a tendency to analyze emotions and take them separately to explain them and this book awaked in my heart so many feelings I just can’t stop. I laughed and cried reading this, I loved the characters and I hated them at some moments, except Kolby, I hated that one the entire time. I believe this story is very real, all the good things in it and also, the bad ones. Love is never easy, you have to fight for it constantly and that’s the beauty in it, we always have to fight because it’s worth it!
Finally, I say you have to read this! If you loved once you will understand, if you haven’t you will want a love like this!

Sometimes your first love just lands in your lap by happenstance and that's what happens with Kameron and Elizabeth. While they didn't start dating traditionally, and it tore Kameron's brother apart in the process, they each fell deep and hard for each other. Young and full of ideas, they had the future planned out. Until Kolby decides he wants Elizabeth back and stoops to the lowest depths to tear them apart. But time, distance, and heartache won't be enough for these two. Sometimes you just find someone and know they are the one, and you either work on forgiveness or you work on moving on. Told from the past forward, Shattered is an insta-love story and the relationship is pretty intense, there are a few spelling errors that could easily be fixed to make this a flawless young adult HEA.

Shattered features characters that are instantly likable. I found myself falling right along with Kameron and Liz! This story offers a bit of everything: romance, steamy sex scenes, drama, and intrigue, it truly hits on all cylinders! I was 100% invested and on the edge of my seat for the majority of the book... I would HIGHLY recommend this book and author to anyone who loves a book with a well developed story line, three dimensional characters and enough feelings to run the gamut of emotions in one setting!

A first love romance that is very well written and has a great storyline and plot. The characters are well described, relatable and likeable.
The chemistry and passion is amazing. A story about a first love that just keeps getting deeper and deeper. A love that forms your future whether you like it or not. You have to fight for it because it is never easy and without difficulties.
The story is filled with emotions of betrayal, love, happiness, joy, sorrow and despair.
A story that fascinated and captivated me.

Shattered by Diana Nixon has everything in a story that will do exactly what the title says it will... it shatters!!! The story breaks your heart and soul and puts it back together again. Two souls fall in love, then hearts get broken and revenge is the only thought. But this story is much more, it’s full of secrets and betrayals and everything in between. Super good read.

I loved this book. This story had me hooked from the beginning of the book. This book will keep you begging for more

10 Duck Stars
Remember Carnival rides and your first taste of the delectable cotton candy? The sweetness of the refined sugar spun into a fluffy cloud of a treat that once it hits our mouths it dissolves within a split second leaving a taste that our imagination along with a fascination leaves our pallet wanting.
Remember your first taste of a Reese peanut butter cup? The first time the chocolate sweetness hits our mouths? Taking the first bite with the explosion of peanut butter on the inside is just a fascination of explosions of happiness and joy. A mixture of the combination that leaves us wanting more knowing that one bite is just not enough. But what happens when that goodness is gone and leaves you craving more? Taking this into the journey of Kameron and Liz this author not only brings out the despair within each character but a disguise of a past the explodes into the future of each. Can the past blimp on the screen be the magic and explanation of hearty love that has withstood the test of time within each of their forever hearts? This is their true journey of past, present and future. Shattered lives, love of happiness and joy, sorrow and despair but also of the true hearts that never truly became two but always as one.
To the author: Wow is all I really have to say about this fascination of which you call a book. You took the past, present and future and brought forth many obstacles that were hidden within the read with a bunch of heartache that explosions within the pages but at the same time you told a story that just cause it looks like a duck, quacks like a duck, it may not be a duck it may just what we perceive it to be. Major Kudos to you
Happy Reading

This review is from: Shattered (Kindle Edition)
(WARNING: REVIEW CONTAINS SPOILERS, SKIP TO THE END IF YOU DO NOT WANT TO SEE THEM AND JUST WANT TO SEE MY RECOMMENDATION)
SPOILER ALERT!!!!!!!!!!!
Mrs. Nixon has written her 16th book! I must say, it is a great read.
This story is about a very complicated relationship between Kameron and Elizabeth. Kameron, the leading male, is older than Elizabeth by a few years. Elizabeth is just getting ready to graduate from highschool when they officially meet. It is love at first sight between the pair, but she is with his step-brother and even though she is instantly attracted to Kameron she needs to convince herself that it is the right decision to leave his brother Kolby and be with him.
Kameron knows that he wants her when he lays his eyes on her. He spends the summer at his dad's house and makes sure to get Elizabeth's attention and win her heart. And he does. But there is a problem. . . Kolby is not going to go down without a fight and succeeds in splitting them up.
When Kameron's father goes into the hospital, Kameron is forced to go back and see Elizabeth again and he is hellbent on making her pay for breaking his heart. After some trials and tribulations they work their problems out and end up together.
If you have read any of Diana's previous books, you will enjoy this one too.

*** received ARC in exchange for an honest review***
This is one of those stories that has you falling in love then "shatters" you in a short amount of time. From the opening lines till the very end, you just feel the angst, love, hate, chemestry, betrayal, friendships jumping off the pages with the amazing words taht Diana Nixon gives us in Shattered.
In the dualing point of view story you get Elizabeths and Kameron's side of the story as it unravels. The flashbacks that give you that bit information that you are missing till the current situations of running into each other again.
Besides the main charatures story line that is explosive, their faimly dynamic is one that many may relate to. Every one is not perfect, bad stuff happens and how they deal with it makes them who they are today. But when you become "shattered", can they find that peace that they are looking for? I'm not going to tell you, you'll have to read it for your self, because sometimes things are not always what they seem to be.
Thank you for the chance to read and review this story.

Besides the main charatures story line that is explosive, their faimly dynamic is one that many may relate to. Every one is not perfect, bad stuff happens and how they deal with it makes them who they are today. But when you become "shattered", can they find that peace that they are looking for? I'm not going to tell you, you'll have to read it for your self, because sometimes things are not always what they seem to be.
Thank you for the chance to read and review this story.

Diana Nixon has done it again with another well written novel. From the first to the last page any reader no matter what genre you love will enjoy this book. The characters each have a personality of there own and the readers know what they want to see. Diana listens to her readers as to what they want to see written in her books and each time she makes it happen. This love story had it's up and down moments, but everything happens for a reason right?
The two main characters fall in love.....fall out of love.....find out secrets......have secrets......but you need to pick up a copy of Shattered to find out what is really taken place. I also highly recommend the other Diana Nixon books that she has published. I am also really hoping that this is going to have a sequel so we see how the characters develop.

Diana Nixon will never disappoint her readers... Her new book Shattered, which will be released on February 12th, will capture you from the beginning, it has left me with the wish to read it a thousand times more. The characters are BEAUTIFUL, the plot is captivating and allows the imagination to develop a thousand possibilities, but in the end, it surprises you with the outcome, the way it is written, is exciting and unsettling. It is one of those novels that you can't stop reading. The LOVE-HATE story is ridiculously AWESOME. The relationship between Kameron and Liz with their friends is intimate and makes you want to know more about them. I hope Diana will share with us their stories!!!! From now on, one of my favorite books!! 1000% recommended #Shattered #NewLove #FavoriteBook #FavoriteAuthor #LoveKameronGrayson

Podría ser mas interesante, el argumento es trillado, el conflicto en sí podria haberse solucionado en una página. Lectura rápida y si no tenes nada para leer.
2.5 ⭐⭐

This story is a veritable tragedy of errors ; kind of like the classic comedy of errors only not nearly so funny. The main characters stumble through one tragedy after another, many of them largely of their own making to create a "tangled web" that would have done Shakespeare proud.
It's a story that will probably appeal mostly to the new adult reading crowd as more mature readers may feel the almost irresistible urge to slap one or both of our young lovers upside the head and tell them to stop being spoiled children.
None the less, the characters are well crafted and ALWAYS true to form, consistently self-absorbed and making the kind of bad choices emo, young adult heroes so often do in romances and I liked them in spite of, or maybe even because of their impulsive, self-destructive choices.
If you're looking for a nice, sweetness and light romance, this isn't the book for you, but I did find it entertaining and it does end with what one hopes might be an HEA, if only our heroes can finally accept what they have and stop so desperately trying to find reasons to be miserable.

November 26, 2019I'm not leaving a star rating for this one as I didn't finish reading it. I got about 10 pages in before I abandoned it. It just wasn't for me. The constant repetition drove me mad. If it was said once that he hated his ex it was said a million times in those first ten pages and I couldn't read anymore. From the reviews and the people who have read it, there probably is a good story, but those first pages didn't grab me enough to want to keep reading.

Opposites attract
It took me a while to warm up to the story and I almost put it down but then it took off in lightening speed. So many rollercoaster of feelings. Everyone knew that Kameron and Elizabeth belonged together but both were too stubborn to see it. Baby makes 3 and maybe now they can really be together.

Me ha gustado mucho pero termina muy de repente. Le falta algo en el final.

This book was really hard for me to get into for a while but it seemed like there was a good plot in there so I kept reading until I was hooked. It was a good story.

Bueno, la verdad es que no tenía ninguna expectativa cuando comencé a leer este libro (me debatí entre cuál de los dos debía comenzar primero).
Tenemos a nuestros dos protaginistas, Kameron & Elizabeth, que por cuestiones que no nombraré (bcs SPOILER) afectan su relación.
El tema central (además de su amor) es la venganza y, tengo que ser muy sincera...
AMO LOS LIBROS QUE TOCAN ESE TEMA
Eso no me hace mala, simplemente disfruto con las dificultades de los personajes(?
En la primera parte de la historia nos encontramos con la forma en la que Kameron y Elizabeth se conocieron y como su amor se lleva a cabo.
En la segunda parte nos encontramos con la venganza que cada uno quiere llevar a cabo con el contrario.
Cuando ambos se reencuentran, no saben qué hacer o qué sentir. Dudan en si sus sentimientos son los correctos, si la mejor opción es vengarse el uno del otro o simplemente rendirse al amor...
Como esto es una mini-reseña creo que lo voy a cortar ahí HAHAHA.
En general, les puedo decir que este libro me ha hecho pasar un buen rato.
La lectura es rápida y nada rebuscada, tiene frases que te hacen reír (las playeras de Elizabeth), situaciones que te pueden desesperar y otras que te pueden poner triste y otras que simplemente enamoran.

Una buena trama, pero mal manejada. La historia sucede demasiado rápido que hace ver que todo sea predecible e irreal. Los personajes son muy planos, no sentí nada de ellos. Y es una lastima, la historia es un cliché pero que tenia mucho que ofrecer, pero todo sucede tan rápido que ni pude disfrutarla.

Una novela corta no muy diferente, tiene un erotismo suave, una trama monótona, y serviría para un día sin mucho quehacer.
No es de mi estilo y por eso tal vez no la disfruté tanto, pero si eres del tipo romántico, amante de los "badboys" sensibles y de la chica que se hace la dificil, es un libro que deberías leer para pasarte un rato.
