Unbreakable was an emotional and heartwarmingly sweet read. Sylvia and Henry’s mutual heartache may bring them together, but the love they find in each others arms is the realest thing either one of them has ever known. But along with divorce comes the baggage of their previous lives… and the hurt that was left behind in the shambles of their broken relationships may just be too much for their love to overcome…
Sylvia is a fantastic mom, but she has been severely struggling to find a way to make her kids happy in the aftermath of their parents divorcing and their subsequent move to Michigan.

And while Sylvia hopes to keep Henry as a part of her life, whether it be in friendship or MORE, once again life proves just how pointless making plans may really be…

With the happiness of her kids and the fact that Henry is an employee of Cloverleigh Farms, they face many roadblocks before anything more between them can ever really begin. But with their intense chemistry and their common ground post-divorce issues always bringing them back together, these two strong and optimistic individuals hope to someday find a way to share a life together, once and for all…
