What happens when a stranger takes everything from you in the blink of an eye? When your life goes from perfection to hell and you aren’t sure if you want to climb out of the hole you’re in or dig down deeper?
Events from Traxx Maxwell’s past prevent him from getting into serious relationships and he likes it that way. One unexpected day, hell breaks loose. “The Incident” happens. Traxx is forced to watch something that no one should ever see. He starts to fall into a person that no one recognizes. There is darkness moving within him – he is broken inside.
While she’s waiting for Traxx to quit his slutty ways and really notice her, Ciara Collins is dating other guys and having fun. One unexpected day “The Incident” takes over Traxx’s life. While he tries to push everyone away, Ciara refuses to retreat. Can she help him put his fractured life back together or will he have to remain this shattered shell, completely dismantled?
And just when life seems somewhat bearable, the creepers who have been quietly observing and enjoying Traxx’s suffering, have decided to take everything away from him – once and for all.
This is a story about how the unexpected can make someone’s life fall into pieces, and how unconditional love and friendship can help those who are dismantled become whole again.
BFF A Review
Dismantled is Book #2 of the Girls of Top series by Yara Greathouse. We were introduced to Ciara and Traxx in Book #1, Unaviodable as the best friends of Brianna and Colton. Although both books could be read as stand alone, they were quick reads and I’m glad I read both so I understood the dynamics of all the characters.
Ciara and Traxx hang out with a small group of friends. This group reminds me of my bestie group I hang with. When there’s fun, laughter, and beverages, you can never go wrong. There is definitely an attraction between Ciara and Traxx, with his well defined, hot body, who can blame Ciara for being attracted to him? However, with Traxx’s past of one night stands, the friends warn him to stay away from Ciara. The last thing they want to see is the friendship they have torn apart by a failed relationship. When Traxx is faced with an “incident” that changes him, he retreats to a dark place, not letting much in other this nightmares and a whisky bottle. My heart broke for Traxx, no one should witness what he had to, or feel the guilt that was a result of someone else’s actions. Ciara is determined to help him back to the person he once was, to support and help him find himself and be happy again. Ciara is the perfect person to help. She is a strong person that I would want to be my friend. She’s the type that won’t leave you alone even if you said you were ok, she can see Traxx needs support, and she refuses to give up, even when he pushes her away.
“I’m not going to let you stray. We are in this together. Yes, your life is in pieces, all over the place, but I’m the best damned assembler you’re ever going to meet.”
Ciara also doesn’t let past events interfere with what the future may hold.
“The tragedies of our past are stepping stones for us to reach the happy endings of our tomrrows.”
All she is looking for is happiness.. for Traxx and for herself. Dismantled is a fun read about never giving up on your friends and fighting for those feelings you have for someone else.
