The Breaking Away Series Boxed Set

Books 1-3

By: Meli Raine

Narrated by: Tanya Eby

The son and stepdaughter of rival drug dealers, Chase Halloway and Allie Boden know the odds are stacked against them, but love doesn't care about odds. Love only wants to find a way.

Chase Halloway knows he'll take over his father's empire when old Galt Halloway's done, but he has dreams. Plans that have nothing to do with the drug ring his father's so carefully built since Chase's mom died years ago. Untamed and unmoored, when he sees Allie for the first time he realizes maybe the future doesn't have to be so lonely.

Protected by Chase during a blow-out brawl in her stepfather's bar, Allie can't believe the tattooed, muscled man who has eyes only for her really wants her...forever. With a past marred by her mother's death and a stepfather who won't let her leave for sinister reasons she doesn't understand, she wants to choose Chase and her own fate.

Drawn together by an attraction so strong they can't find words for it, and unable to resist a physical temptation so strong they can't deny it, can Chase and Allie's love survive kidnapping, murder, false accusations and more?

The Breaking Away Series Boxed Set contained the entire romantic suspense trilogy: Finding Allie, Chasing Allie, and Keeping Allie. Each is a full-length novel, and by the end of book three Chase and Allie get the happily ever after they so richly deserve.

characters

like all very interesting kept me wanted to get back and finished. there was one part that was repeated

Action Romance

All Allie wants to do is move to California with her sister, but her stepfather has other plans. When she meets Chase, her feelings for him throws a kink in those plans. And when the unexpected happens, Allie needs Chase more than ever. Through twists and more turns, All of what Allie knows is flipped upside down.

I enjoyed this entire trilogy. It was funny and sexy, but loaded with suspense and action.

Uhmmm

I liked the story but the overly exaggerated explanation of her feelings or thoughts …. I was just like ummm…🫤 ok!!

Incredible, Layered, Multi-plot Series!

Wow! I absolutely loved Meli Raine’s 18-book epic in the mystery/crime genre. I am so pleased to recommend it!!

Please, don’t let the number of books overwhelm you!! There are six 3-book series in this collection. Each series can be listened to over a couple of evenings.

All of the stories and characters from each series converge into a mammoth plot that slowly reveals itself, connecting seemingly unrelated events and people such as: a brutal attack on a popular high-school girl from a wealthy, well-connected family; rival drug cartels; a motorcycle gang that traffics women; a cult group that trains young people to infiltrate every part of government and industry; a barbaric and shadowy man that has a fetish for severed arms and legs; and a complex government conspiracy that may go all the way to the White House. Yes, these are all related to the same compelling plot!!

These super-interesting storylines are presented and told from multiple points of view, both male and female. We also see many of the same characters make an appearance in the other books within the collection.

THE ONE THING I wish that I had known: In what order should I read the books if I want a mostly chronological story without spoilers? So, here is my recommended reading order for the books.
1. Harmless series (Game, Ruse, Plan)
2. False series (Memory, Hope, Start)
3. Shameless series (Con, Lie, Bet)
4. Coming Home series (Return, Revenge, Reunion)
5. Breaking Away series (Finding, Chasing, Keeping)
6. Stateless series (Stateless, Traceless, Fateless)

Don’t miss Meli Raine’s awesome six-series story. A huge win!!!

Sappy

storyline ok, but main character is really sappy. may have been better if I read it instead of using audible.
