Five years ago, Embry Jacobs ran…
She ran from a past that still hasn’t let her go, but her dream of becoming a lawyer is stronger than her fear of confronting that past. Embry’s sole focus is to get through law school—with the help of her best friend, Morgan—and make something of the broken girl she became. Not thinking about falling in love, being in a relationship or even entertaining the idea of romance, Embry is moving forward one day at a time.
Luke Brody is charming and sexy, and has a past of his own. He wants nothing more than to put his demons to rest and move on with his life. But, when Embry enters the picture, is he destined to repeat those same mistakes?
Blindsided by their instant attraction, neither Luke nor Embry are prepared for the feelings they’re developing. But will it all be for nothing?
Will they let their pasts destroy them, or will they risk everything to fight for their relationship when it all comes undone?

my 4.5 star review of Undone by RE HUNTER.
If your looking for Romance, secrets, & troubled pasts, then this is the book for you. First semester law student Embry Jacobs has nothing more on her mind than surviving her first year of Law School. That is until she has a run in with Mr Luke Brody. From there sparks begin to fly.

Undone is the first book that I've read this year that's had me from Chapter 1. I wasn't completely in love with the fact that it wasn't from a character's point of view, nonetheless, I absolutely couldn't put this book down. I found myself yelling, screaming, maybe cussing a little & falling in love with this book. Embry, the determined law student & Luke, Mr southern sexy himself have this amazing chemistry that just pulls you right in. The character dynamic in this book is outstanding, the secondary characters mix perfectly into the book.
My only complaint, the dreaded cliff hanger!

OMG I don't know what it is about the forbidden love of a teacher and student that makes me want to devour a book as much as I did this one! I loved this book so much that I am giving it a 5 star and I don't do that for books that end in cliffhangers! Aghhhh if you have ever read any of my previous reviews on cliffhangers you will know how much I loathe them! Even though this was a cliffy I still loved this story and can't wait for more!
Embry-- she is running from a past that she never wanted to face again, she ran to college and 5 years later when she decides to go to law school she returns back home where it all started for her. She is still very distant from her family because of fear that she will run into her ex, but her best friend begged her to come home and go to law school together. Will she run into the person that made her run away in the first place, will he bring more trouble? Will it be a big mistake or will she finally meet the love of her life? Can she pursue this love even though its technically forbidden, but who can close their heart to someone when you opened it to them before you knew who they were? Or does a secret from the past completely destroy this relationship, or just the secret they are keeping from everyone?? OR maybe both? Can she actually have a forbidden relationship when being a lawyer is what she wants more than anything in the world or will she give that up for Luke?
"Look I know you've been hurt. I don't know why or how, but I know I'd kill the fucker who did it if I met him. I know you're not ready to talk about it yet or you would have told me by now, and that's fine. There's a lot we still don't know about each other. But the way things are going.... I want to know you, I want to learn everything about you." Luke paused, brushing his knuckles across Embry's cheek. "I want you, Bree, all of you. I'm glad you're letting me in, because I don't know what I would do if I couldn't have you."
Luke-- holy tattooed sexy bad boy wanna hump his leg hottness!!! He is your typical sexy bad boy and to top it all off he is a lawyer! He moved away from his family and past to start a new life. He doesn't share his past with anyone and he is only here to work not to have a relationship, but will one day change that all? Will a new teaching position help him focus or make it worse? If he pursues this love for a forbidden woman can they keep it secret so it doesn't destroy them, or will something from his past do that anyway or will they both?
You have to read this book! I know I hate cliffhangers but damn it was so great and you never expect it to end the way it does. Its a high speed roller coast ride that you don't ever want to leave, there chemistry and the sexy scenes were off the charts hot! GAWD I can't wait for the next one!!!! The anticipation may just kill me so this could be my last review! That would be tragic :)! Hopefully I will make it out alive so RE HUNTER you could save a life here #wink #wink!!!

5 stars!!!
One of my author friends approached me about reading this book for her friend that wrote it. I was like sure. I love helping new authors and exploring new books. OMG!!! I am so glad I did! This was so amazing and so well written I was immediately drawn into the story and never wanted it to end!! When you think its the typical situation... bam.... you are thrown a curve ball that I never saw. I love trying to figure out a book but I never saw this one coming! For a debut novel by RE Hunter it’s a superb book that I cannot wait to see what else she has in store for us!
We start with Embry returning from just graduating from Florida State. She has moved back home to New York after leaving four years ago. She never thought she would be back to her home town but her best friend convinced her to come back for them to attend grad school together where she is studying to become a lawyer. During her first week at school, she literally runs into the dreamy Luke Brody aka Southern Sexy. He's figures he is not a student as he is just a little older but to young to be a professor. They just exchange hellos and hi's and they each go their separate ways. A couple days later they see each other at a local bar and sparks fly. The attraction they have for each other is apparent. They continue to meet after that and quickly fall into an easy relationship.
Each of them have things from their past that they are struggling with. When these secrets are exposed how will they deal with it. One of them has a bigger secret than the other and has the power to rip their relationship apart. When reading this book I never wanted to put it down. It was a page turner that is sexy, romantic, suspenseful, and I never wanted it to end! I am now a huge fan of RE Hunter and cannot wait to read the next installment! This was a huge 5 star read for me and would HIGHLY recommend it to everyone!
