Can three broken pieces make a whole?

Josiah Evans is the orphan who lost both his parents. He's sweet, shy, and all heart. He wants nothing more than to be loved.

Mateo Sanchez is the son of a gang leader. He's seen it all, and never hesitates to do what needs to be done, no matter what it is.

Tristan Croft is the wealthy attorney who clawed his way up from the bottom to rule his own world. He'll never depend on anyone but himself again.

Three men who couldn't be more different and yet, as their lives intersect, they find an uncommon balance that calms the storms inside each of them, and ignites fires hotter than they ever thought imaginable.

Told in three parts and spanning over 10 years, Broken Pieces is a journey of healing for three fragmented souls, finding love in the unlikeliest of places - with each other.

5.0 out of 5 stars I FELL IN LOVE WITH THIS BOOK. ABSOLUTELY PERFECT!

"…as broken as they both were, together they made something better."

When I downloaded a sample of Broken Pieces by Riley Hart at 10pm, I had no intention of staying up past 4AM glued to my Kindle. I wasn’t sure what to expect from this M/M/M ménage romance but what I got was a beautifully written story that at times left me in tears. It was amazing, emotional, heartbreaking and hopeful. No matter what I say in this review, it just won’t be enough. I absolutely LOVED this book!

I'm not going to rehash the whole story and I don't want to give too much away. Obviously, it's a menage romance so some things are a given...

I really appreciated the way the author set up the relationships between the characters. I loved that the story starts off with Mateo and Josiah as teenagers and that Tristan is not introduced until much later. The way the relationships diverge and later intersect worked perfectly and helped build a more believable romance for me.

The entire story was obviously very well thought out and it flowed extremely well. The characters were well developed. The relationship that developed between Josiah and Mateo made my heart hurt. So different but needing each other so bad.

“No one’s ever looked at me the way you do. Like... I don’t know.” Mateo’s voice was so soft he hardly heard him. But he had, and Josiah’s face flamed with heat.

“Sorry. I didn’t mean...” No other words would come so he started to roll over instead.

“No.” Mateo’s voice stopped him. “It makes me feel like I’m somethin’.”

I cannot think of a character I’ve wanted to wrap in my arms more than Josiah. His quiet demeanor as he travelled through life made me want so bad for someone to love him.

The dynamic between Tristan and Mateo was especially fascinating to me. I loved that they were both so different but found commonality in their damage and eventually some acceptance.

"Nothing in this world was completely black or white. Wrong or right. Or if it was, what mattered was whose eyes it was being seen from. He realized then they all saw things differently, and what mattered was how the people involved felt about it. He understood Tristan’s choice, but hated his own. Tristan somehow understood Mateo’s, but couldn’t stomach his own. Maybe they just needed to believe for each other."

I also enjoyed the alternating points of view and was glad to get each character’s perspective throughout the book.

The heat factor of Broken Pieces was just off the scale HOT! It had everything it needed to be a total scorcher and was done in a very tasteful way. There was just the right mix of tension and build up between the characters. The book was extremely sexy and still sensual at times. Just perfect...perfectly HOT!

This is the second book I've read by Riley Hart and she is now on my "MUST READ" author list. This book was well written, the story was solid, the romance was real and hot...everything about this book is just so well done. FIVE BEAUTIFUL STARS!!!

One quick note...Broken Pieces is a complete story and does have a happy ending. That being said, I was surpised to see at the end of the book that the author plans a follow up book for these characters. I'm actually not sure I'm interested in reading a second book. I loved Broken Pieces so much, I'm not sure I'm willing to risk messing up the HEA these characters were given in this book. To me, the story is beautiful, as is.

"Maybe most things, the important things, don’t really have to make sense. Maybe they just are."

4.5 Triple the Love Stars!

OH this book! Well, I needed something to get my mojo back...who better than Riley Hart and going on the M/M train! This read was totally not what I expected and I found the whole thing to be beautifully HOT!

I can see this book as a great starter for those looking to venture into this genre as the author tells of a complex love story between 3 men that started as a simple fascination between two young lost souls. Josiah is the typical foster kid...quite, polite, and fairly solitary. He is unprepared for his new roommate to be so rough...so bad...so unbelievably fascinating. Mateo knows nothing but darkness yet he has a heart of pure gold. It does not take long for a relationship of pure trust and adoration to develop as neither has ever been cared for so deeply. The progression of first looks to first touches and to first intimacy was done so well and so tender in such desolate moments of the heart. While cheering Jay and Teo on, it was almost too good to be true and the lingering dark past would ultimately break two hearts.

Fast forward to a new life...to a new time...and Josiah is "walking" thru life with no real pulse. A sexy stranger with his own shattered life makes a single proposition and turns a wilting Josiah into the strong and determined man the Teo always new was there. Tristan is drawn to the goodness and the caring soul of Josiah, and while giving him a new life and a new "relationship," he is unable to give himself fully to Josiah. But Josiah still isn't fully healed himself as his first love still holds a piece of his heart.

I had no idea how this story would turn out...truth be told, I was not really a Josiah fan. I struggled a bit with why he was so appealing but when his past and his present collide, I truly appreciated his bringing Teo and Tristan together! For me, this story became amazing when two men fought themselves and saw their worth in each other's mistakes. Teo and Tristan may have been together because of Josiah, but their connection was no less important! Kudos to Riley Hart for writing another fabulous M/M romance and for turning up the heat with some of the hottest threesomes ever read!!!

Gosto muito da escrita da autora, e dessa vez não foi diferente.
Acompanhar a historia desses 3 personagens foi maravilhoso. Leitura envolvente, fluida. Devorei o livro pra saber o que ia acontecer.
Só o personagem do Josiah que achei meio chato, muito passivo. Apesar de ter passado por tanta coisa fica sempre esperando alguém pra resolver a vida dele.
Poderia ter mais sobre o Mateo.

This was a beautiful and emotional read! None of the MCs have had an easy life, and each has been affected differently. Josiah sees the good in everyone, tries to remain positive and when he loves, he loves deep and completely. Mateo has shut himself off - raised by his gangster father and uncle, he hates everything they stand for but couldn't help being pulled into their world. When he does let someone in, he does absolutely everything he can to protect them and keep them safe. Tristan has walls a mile high but while Mateo tries to purge the horrible feelings, Tristan wallows in them and takes responsibility for things he shouldn't - things that occurred in the past that were out of his control.

Individually they are broken, alone and lost. Together, they each are able to contribute something to make each other whole.

I loved the way the story was broken into the 3 parts across the 10 year period. It worked so well and introduced each character beautifully, showcasing their strengths, fears and vulnerabilities.

I loved how the story played out, even if it did have me tearing up at times due to the depth of emotion I was experiencing.

Beautifully done and can't wait to read more on this trio!

Teilweise so intensiv, dass es kaum zum Aushalten ist, aber insgesamt einfach "wunderschön" - so wie die Menschen, die hier beschrieben sind (innerlich - das Äußerliche ist da grad völlig unerheblich :)!). Ich habe laaange gezögert, es zu kaufen und hatte es dann nochmal laaange hier liegen, weil die 3er-Konstellation nicht so mein Ding ist, aber ich bin wirklich froh, dass ich mich drangetraut habe - ich hätte ein ganz besonderes Buch mit ganz besonderen Menschen und einer ganz besonderen Beziehung verpasst + freue mich nun auf Teil 2 :)!

5.0 out of 5 stars Three Broken Pieces Come Together as One
Reviewed in Canada on August 16, 2015

I just finished reading Riley Hart’s Broken Pieces and I loved it. I hesitated buying this book. I have read books before with a ménage à trois and they just never come off as believable. But in this book the author, once again has laid out an amazing story, and it wasn’t easy.

The first two characters we meet our teenagers in foster care. Mateo, is from the streets of Brooklyn. His father is a gang leader and he was being groomed to take over. Josiah’s parents were killed in a car accident and he is there as well. They are total opposites. Josiah is a lot smaller and Mateo takes on the role of protector. They eventually fall in love and end up on the streets as they try to stay together.

Some years later, after Mateo pushes Josiah away to protect him, we are introduced to Tristan, a district attorney in San Francisco. Again, another broken piece. We learn the dark history of Tristan and his mother and what he did to protect her from the streets of NY as well and what brought them to San Francisco.

He eventually falls in love with Josiah and as that relationship grows, Mateo comes back in the picture after a stint in jail.
How these three come together to heal each other is the amazing part of the story. While Josiah believes it is first Mateo and then Tristan that save him, he is the one that actually saves the two of them from their dark pasts – the most poignant line in the book for me is when the two of them describe Josiah as the light to their dark.

A must read – I am going on to part two of the story – I need to know about these three great characters!
