About the Book:
Beatrice Archer has always done everything she’s supposed to —worked her ass off, ignored her non-existent personal life, and kept her mouth shut. Now she’s over it. The rat race, respectability…the underwire bras. She’s taking her life back. Starting with moving to Nowhere, Colorado to live life on her own terms.
Now Bea gives exactly zero forks. Beer for breakfast. Sugar for everything else. Baggy sweats and soft cotton undies FTW. Then a much younger and delightfully attractive cop is called to deal with her flagrant disregard for appropriate clothing outside the local diner (some folks just don’t appreciate bunny slippers) and Bea realizes there’s something missing from her little decathlon of decadence…and he might be the guy to help her out.
When it comes to breaking rules, Officer Austin Cooper is surprisingly eager to assist. He’s charming, a little bit cowboy, and a whole lot sexy. But Bea’s about to discover that breaking the rules has consequences. And all of the cherry pies in Colorado can’t save her from what’s coming…

My Review:
When Beatrice Archer's life gets upended by a misogynistic boss, she uproots her life in LA and moves to a small town in Colorado. There, she becomes the exact opposite of her corporate persona and what her father and grandmother expect from her. Bea lets her guard down and shows her new neighbors, and the townsfolk of Credence, a side of her that no one has ever seen. In fact, it's a side of Bea she's never actually seen, herself. As a newcomer, she's under a microscope of scrutiny, as her pajamas and bunny slippers can attest to, from the folks in this close-knit town. The citizens even go so far as to call the cops on her and Officer Sexy...I mean...Officer Austin Cooper may just be exactly what she needs.
I absolutely loved this book. There is laughter, fun, sexiness, and some steam between the pages. Lovers of everything romance will enjoy the heck out of Breaking All the Rules. The characters are wonderful. I loved how Bea left LA for Colorado and took her life back. A bit unconventional, but it worked for her. Her romantic interest may be a bit younger (something Bea had a hard time rectifying within herself for some reason) but they meshed quite well. I'm married to a younger man, and let me tell you, I enjoy him a whole lot more than the men I dated/married who were older than me ;). Besides, age is just a number after you reach a certain age of adulthood.
I highly recommend Breaking All the Rules and I'm glad I was provided a paperback copy. I will display this book proudly among my cozies, paranormal/urban fantasies, and other contemporary romances. Thank you Entangled Publishing!
