Summary from Michelle's website
Fourteen years after her kidnapping, Naomi has moved on from her
traumatic past. She has a new last name, a career she loves, and nobody
to hold her down. When she lands her dream job managing a restaurant in
Italy, she resolves not to think about what happened in that country
with Jesse eleven years ago. But Naomi’s past won’t let her go that
easily. One by one, her former kidnappers are being released from
prison. When Naomi runs into Evelyn at a local market, her perfect life
is turned upside down and curiosity leads her step by step back to
Jesse. She’s looking for closure, but what she finds along the way
changes everything, leaving her at one last crossroads with her former
kidnappers.
Nayu's thoughts
Final part of the
Breakaway trilogy is epic! Very happy ending & a happy reader!)
I'm heavily biased as I'm a Breakaway fangirl, and know Michelle
online. (It is called The Breakaway, but originally it was just Breakaway, which is what I'm used to, hence why I call it that a lot). That said I can't stress how wonderful this novel is. Naomi
has matured a lot since she was kidnapped and returned, it was
fascinating seeing her live her dream of being in Italy, which was a
much nicer experience than when she first went there with Jesse in
book 2, Pieces.
I'm so glad she had a mentor of sorts to help her through seeing her
kidnappers again – that was a meeting I was super excited to read
as I wasn't sure how she'd react. All the way through the novel all
previous characters who I both loved and hated acted true to
themselves, some had changed for the better, others not so much. The
ending is perfection, and while I always like to know what happens
next, I'm happy with where I leave Naomi, and am looking forward to
rereading this again and again.
