Breaking His Boundaries By VH Nicolson

Elijah: she’s an obsession I can’t control.

I thrive on order. Precision. Control. Organising Hart Law’s staff event this year is a disruption I do not need. Especially if it means working closely with Sapphire Feelgood. Event organiser and sunshine in human form. She’s bright, bubbly, and allergic to the word no. We clash instantly—her enthusiasm grates, her ideas overwhelm, and her smile… distracts far more than it should.

I don’t do chaos. Or temptation. But Sapphire is both and she knows just how to push my polished buttons and dismantle my boundaries…Sapphire: I want to know every part of him.

Eli Hart may be beautiful, but he’s also the grumpiest man I’ve ever met. He challenges everything—my ideas, my optimism, my patience. But somewhere between the tension and the teasing, I start seeing the real man beneath the perfect suits, but I know he’s still hiding secrets. He pushes me away. I push right back. It becomes our game. Every moment together sparks hotter than the last.

And the more he tries to hold the line, the more I want to be the one who finally makes him cross it…

Hunting the enemy who erased her identity

plunges them into a fight for their lives

Skylar Sullivan no longer exists. The obliteration of her identity is only the first step in a diabolical plan to frame the artist for crimes she couldn’t have physically committed from her wheelchair. Turning to the one person she can trust brings back memories of a night fourteen years ago when Sky lost the boy she loved. Reece Palmer failed Sky once. When he vows to protect her with his life in a way he couldn’t in the past, the cybersecurity expert must take down a mortal threat before a cold-blooded avenger makes Sky disappear forever.

About The Author

My Review

This is a compelling blend of romantic suspense, emotional depth, and personal resilience. Skylar, an artist whose life changed forever after a cheerleading accident left her in a wheelchair, has spent fourteen years building a new normal. Returning home from a retreat, she discovers her identity has been stolen and erased, plunging her into danger. With threats looming and nowhere else to turn, she seeks help from Reece Palmer, her childhood best friend and the one man she’s always trusted.

Mettner crafts Reece as a hero worth swooning over—steadfast, respectful, and deeply admiring of Skylar not despite her circumstances, but because of who she is. Their romance simmers with both chemistry and tenderness, placing emphasis on emotional connection rather than just physical attraction. The suspense plot is tightly woven with twists that keep the reader guessing, while the themes of forgiveness, self-acceptance, and renewal lend heartfelt resonance.
