[Book Review] Broken by Kelly Elliott

I’m going to do a book review for you today and the book I’m going to talk about it’s the first one in the Broken Series by Kelly Elliott.

This book was my choise for the Week #02 of the 2015 Reading Challenge draw from the Spice Up Your Reading jar 🙂

The premise was reading something about a Southern Author, and when I saw that paper with the writing I just couldn’t shake this book out of my head. I have bought it from Amazon Kindle and I itching to read it. I did little research and BINGO, Kelly Elliott it is, in fact a country girl!
