Omg this book was so addictive right from the very beginning. Xavier is a character you will love to hate and hate to love. He is an arrogant, self entitled jerk and Rocky and him are like oil and water.
They have so many secrets and lies between them their hate filled sex life is explosive. Everyone around them can see their chemistry but they both fight tooth and nail to keep each other at arms length. But their lives has been intertwined for so many years and they didn’t even know it.
Revenge might have brought them together but their love will keep them from falling apart. This book will keep you on the edge of your seat till the very end. You will fall in love with this love/hate story and their HEA.

This is my first book from this author and I didn’t know what to expect. This book takes you for a ride! Highly recommend if you want a book with a love/hate relationship, torment between the love interests and twists and turns that keep you wanting to turn the page! The ending is phenomenal and I highly recommend this book! The chemistry is off the charts and this book will set your soul on fire!
Break You was a fantastic book and I enjoyed it tremendously. It’s a little bit twisted, dark, and yet the denial between between Rocky and Xavier was intense. I love how in the blurb it highlights their denial as both says this is not a love story or romantic. Both Xavier and Rocky had very different background but both have suffered due to their parents. M.V. Ellis did a fanatic job with balancing their intense attraction for each other and how they believe they feel as they both don’t recognize what they are feeling till the end as they never experienced it before. If you love bully romance or enemies to lovers then this is the book for you. You will enjoy it tremendously. There is humor most stemming from word play and sarcasm which makes me laugh. So if that is your thing then you will love this book. This book was very hot and the chemistry between Xavier and Rocky was off the charts. Not having any triggers I don’t think this book has a lot but it might to someone who does have them. I would recommend you try a sample first. I definitely will be giving this book a 5 rating . Anyway, as I mentioned Break You has a lot to recommend it and I hope you enjoy it as much as I do.
Really enjoyed this book, loved the strong heroine Rocky who gives Xavier a run for his money! I’m really into my bully romance at the moment. This book had lots of twists and turns which i didn’t see coming, so it kept me on the edge of my seat, i literally couldn’t stop reading. The whole plot gripped me, i loved the chemistry between the main characters and we were introduced to some really good side characters who i’m hoping we get to read more about in future books. This is an enemy to lover romance, with some hot sex scenes, explosive chemistry, real characters and a plot that moves at a steady pace and keeps you turning the pages! Highly recommend. I received an ARC from the author in exchange for an honest review.
Loved this book. Loved the chemistry from page one. I mean come on! The hateful looks they give each other at the beginning. And how he wants absolutely nothing to do with her!!
Author knocked this out of the park!! Cannot wait for the second book!
This is my first time reading anything form this author, and I wasn’t disappointed, I definitely will be looking for more to read from this author. This is the first book in the Boys of Trinity Hall series, and the story of Xavier, and Rocky. Xavier is a spoiled , arrogant college student, and Rocky is a spunky badass, and when these two get together the sparks fly. Both damaged from their past, and driven by their demons. This was an intense read, the characters are well written, and their story captivated me. This was emotional, dramatic, suspenseful, steamy, raw, twisted, dark, and mysterious.
This. Book . Was. So. Awesome and that cover? Wow! This is my first book by M.V. Ellis and let me tell you, it was so good. I had to set everything aside so I could read undisturbed. Each word drew me in more and more. Can’t wait for #2.
Whoa!
Xavier and Rocky are intense! The hate and the heat between these two will rival those of any bully romance I have ever read. This is the first book I have read by this author but it surely will not be my last.

This book captured my attention from the very beginning. I was immersed into the story by the great opening scene and the fluid writing. The characters were intense in their actions and their scenes together were simply amazing. I can’t wait to read the next book.
Xavier is your typical arrogant and demanding rich boy, and Rocky knows she should steer clear of him, but for some reason she just can’t escape him. It’s as if he is stalking her, and trying to make her life a living hell every place they meet.
They were paired together for a class project, and from that point on Xavier has taken it upon himself to appoint himself Rocky’s keeper. Constantly telling her what to do, who to talk to, imposing his will on her… and tempting her to do things she knows she shouldn’t! He is the devil… and the devil has never looked so good to her!
Within the pages of Break You readers will find a dark and heart-wrenching tale that will push their boundaries and torture their hearts. This one definitely left a mark or two on mine, I felt for Rocky and the impossible position she found herself in, she just couldn’t catch a break. Between her brother’s troubles, struggling to keep herself afloat, and Xavier’s constant pestering it was easy to see she was overwhelmed. The push and pull between these characters was rough on the feels, Xavier knew just how to get under Rocky’s skin and push her past her breaking point, but he also knew when to be a soft place for her to fall too. I really enjoyed this one, it had angst and drama to keep my eyes glued to the pages, and characters you couldn’t help but be captivated by… really impressive first read for me! Highly recommend!
I requested an advanced copy of this title from the publisher, and I am voluntarily leaving my honest opinion.
This is my first time reading this author, the blurb caught my attention and the book lived up to my expectations. It’s a dark bully, enemies to lovers’ romance that is a very intense read. The main characters fight their attraction to each other which results in some great dialogue. Both are very strong characters and not willing to put up with much from anyone. It’s a fantastic read.

Two pasts that once crossed but never touched
One intertwined destiny that would irrevocably change their lives forever
It began with hope – just a few words on the back of a snapshot
But it was enough to give Rocky an indestructible strength that would last her a lifetime. Guided by an ingrained sense of right and wrong crafted from exposure to the darker side of humanity she promised herself she would do it on her own – She would do it the right way.
I loved Rocky’s take no bull chit approach. She knew fate was a spoilt brat – she had spent a lifetime brushing off her blows.
Xavier was on a mission of revenge and fate couldn’t have been more conciliatory if she had done the job herself.
Xavier was a touch misguided IMO at times his tantrums were a bit over the top.
I have to say I did not see that coming!
The chemistry between the two MC’s was off the charts.
Each time they interacted together it was explosive – even the smallest moments between them created friction so intense that it singed the pages.
Rocky gave back as good as Xavier dished out
I read this in one sitting – the plot line was easy to follow a few scenes were a bit far fetched but it did not detract from the overall story line.
If you enjoy a slightly twisted bully romance with a heroine that is as tough as nails and a seriously “OH HE LL No” plot spin
This is it
This story is really different and I’am not sure what to think about. It’s enemies to lovers genre, but with so much bullying then it made me emotional drained. So much drama and tension.
The characters are really unique, the plot was interesting and have some twists in it.
That said I had a couple of chuckles,too.
Overall, very enjoyable. Great cover?

Captivating, enemies to lovers bullying romance story with lots of emotions. The characters are intriguing. The well-written book kept my attention throughout, enjoyed reading. I have voluntarily chosen to read and review this book.
I must say that this book was real exciting to read. It kept me on my toes and made me keep reading more until I got to the end. She was a difficult person to get to know I will say that. She had good reason. He really was a prick too. Sound like the perfect combination right. They were so funny together had me crying sometimes. I really liked how the story was setup and came together at the end. Perfect ending to one of the funniest and mad at the world books that I have ever read.

Wow what a storyline. I was not expecting this one at all. I was not expecting what happened in this book at all. This was so well written and so unique of a storyline. I absolutely loved every single page turning moment. Had me hooked from the beginning to end. I was on the edge of my seat through most of the book. Wanted to throw my kindle at some points in the storyline. Xavier what a character. He has an evil side and a soft side but let me say the evil side holy cow. He is seeking revenge against an old friend. He finds the perfect person to do that with. Rocky is the perfect character. I absolutely love her. She is just trying to do what she can to survive and make it through college. Until she meets Xavier and things start to happen. Strange things start to happen. But at the same time she is falling for him. But little does she know that he is using her. I absolutely loved the twists and turns in this story. The suspense was off the charts amazing. The chemistry between these two was off the charts hot. This was a great book about two amazing characters. I absolutely love the bully storyline. Just an altogether amazing must read.
Some things I liked and some things not so much
Break You is the first book I have read by MV Ellis so I was not sure what to expect as you just never know when you try a “new to you” author. The book description looked like it could be very interesting even though it is YA based, which I tend not to read a lot of, so I figured I would pick this one up and see if I liked the writing. So after finishing the book I am not sure of my final opinion. While I think the story started out strong it sort of lost me in there and I ended up skimming parts of the story. There were some things that I found interesting and liked about the story-line and characters but other things that were hollow and I found myself rolling my eyes over.
Well I did like the authors writing style it was really parts of the story-line and characters that I did not like. I am not willing to never read MV Ellis again so will be reading the next book in this series if it looks interesting to me.
I received a free ARC of this book in exchange for my honest review. My opinions are all my own.
The great plot was well written and the characters were so well developed that as I turned each page the chemistry between the characters kept me totally hooked until the very last page!

This was an extremely intense bully romance that was just completely captivating. I enjoyed the back and forth the most, the complete hate relationship was just so palpable and so tense. It created such a great read!
