Where to begin......oh, that is Joel <---------. Actually it is Oliver Sykes but when I read Breaking Alexandria he is who I immediately pictured as Lexi's first love, Joel. Covered in tatts, wrong side of the law, bad influence that had her parents pulling their hair out? Yeah, him. We've all been there, right? "But I love him!" Yeah, him.
Loved this story. In the span of a few years, Lexi went from being herself to losing herself in a guy that she thought was her everything and forever thing to being forced to find herself again. The book is probably supposed to be YA since Lexi is 17 but the book just seems to fit so many emotions and situations of people every age so I don't think you have to be "into" YA to really enjoy this book.
There are for sure some life lessons and changing events to be learned for everyone in this book- Lexi needs to see who and what she is supposed to be in life, Joel needs to see that the life he lives is not one that will keep Lexi in it, and Landon, the perfect distraction and escape from real life, yeah, he just needs to get in my bed...in a few years when he's older....
Seriously, I highly recommend this book, I loved it and will probably read it again right now. 5 ***** <3 Kellie

Synopsis: Publication Date: March 30, 2014
This book is a standalone. (No cliffhanger.)
Alexandria’s drug-dealing boyfriend, Joel, isn’t exactly the white knight she’s always dreamed of, but she can’t deny the crazy connection they have. She would do anything for him, including helping him sell drugs in order to fit perfectly into his world.
After catching Alexandria dealing for Joel, instead of turning her into the cops, Alexandria’s mother forces her to move to her grandparents’ farm in West Virginia. Spending the summer in the country, away from Joel, is the last thing Alexandria wants to do. But lucky for her, the sexy farmhand, Landon, who helps out around her grandparents’ place, is a very nice distraction. She tries her best to ignore her attraction to him, especially since she still loves Joel.
When Joel does the unforgivable, Alexandria turns to her new friend, Landon, for comfort, and it ignites an undeniable spark of attraction between them. Soon, she finds herself caught between two very different men, and the struggles within her heart just might end up breaking Alexandria.
