Review-

I cannot even express how eagerly I've been waiting for On Broken Wings. I was practically stalking the author and goodreads to see if any early reviews have been up and if so, how I could get my hands on an arc. On Broken Wings is the third book in Chanel Cleeton's Wild Aces series. This book is the much awaited story of Easy and Dani. I have to admit, it definitely met my expectations with a few surprises as well. I loved it!

Let's start with Dani. Its been a year since Dani lost her husband Joker. She is drifting when it seems like everyone has moved on and try as she may she can't stop loving her husband. We'd met Dani before in the previous two Wild Aces books so we know she's the sweetest thing. It was hard to see Dani sad but she's tough. It was great seeing her heal with Easy's help and finally realising that he could be more than a friend to her.

Alex "Easy" Rogers has a reputation with women. But the truth of the matter is he's always been in love with Dani. Even though she was married to one of the men he respected the most. He's tried really hard to get over her but he can't and he feels extremely guilty for it. When Easy sees Dani in pain, trying to cope with her loss he can't help but be there for her. Easy was a great guy. There was so much more depth to him than one could imagine and his feelings for Dani was just swoon worthy.

On Broken Wings is the epitome of a slow burn romance. Dani and Easy start of as friends, something they always were even before the tragedy that happened. Poor Easy struggles to control his emotions but Dani makes it all too easy for him to fall and stay in love with her. I liked how Dani didn't want to hurt Easy and how she was unsure of loving someone the way she did Joker. The chemistry between them was there for everyone to see.

On Broken Wings deals with grief, loss, heartbreak and healing. It was beautiful to see Dani and Easy realise that they had it in them to stick through the tough times and be with each other. There is also a little surprise which hits them. I also really enjoyed seeing Jordan and Burn along with Thor and Becca. They are great couples. All in all I really enjoyed On Broken Wings and I would highly recommend this series by Chanel Cleeton.
