Review: Broken Hart by Ella Fox



In Broken Hart, Sabrina Tyler is Dante Hart’s Executive Assistant. They quickly become bestfriends to the point where their families have Sunday dinners together.  Sabrina is extremely attracted to Dante, but doesn’t want to ruin their friendship or work relationship. 

This novel is written in the relatively new and popular sub-genre called Erotic Romance. Although there are lots and lots of hot, delicious, make-you-wet sex scenes, there is also a very romantic love story. Ella Fox did a fantastic job developing her characters to the point where you can feel an emotional attachment to them. Some scenes in this novel actually made me cry. It has been a very long time since a story was good enough to make me cry. That’s the sign of a good writer. 

There were a few typos and grammatical inconsistencies, but these are minor and easily overlooked as you get drawn into the story and its characters. The story is written through Sabrina’s point of view.  The first person POV written in the present tense is often very difficult to accomplish. Although there were some tense inconsistencies, Ella still managed to keep the story flowing. 

Broken Hart was Ella’s debut novel. The second novel in the series will be about Damien – Dante’s brother. If the first novel is any indication, I will also be staying up late at night reading Damien’s story. I can’t wait to read it. I think that Ella Fox will have a bright future as a writer. My rating: 4.5
