A wonderfully, light
story by Ari McKay, Knitting a Broken Heart Back Together
left this reader smiling with a sense of warmth.
Jason and Tomy were kind
men who deserved happiness and love. Unfortunately for Tomy, the man he thought
was his One turned out to be a dud,
which became fortuitous for Jason.
I loved the fact the
main characters were not necessarily the typical “male” dominated occupation found
in most books. Jason, a former pro football player, owned and operated a
knitting/yarn shop, and himself very adept with the needles. Tomy, Argentinian
decent, ran the family business of a dance studio, additionally being an award
winning competitor.
The slow burn and Jason’s
wooing of Tomy after the relationship debacle was sweet and progressive. Jason
was patient, kind, and ever so loving; allowing Tomy to feel valued and
cherished. Tomy’s skittishness and apprehension soon became a thing of the past
with Jason’s friendship. The dance scenes heightened the overall chemistry
between the two men and produced a sexual tension that radiated through the
pages. Kudos Ari McKay for leaving me
breathless through the sexual heat of a beautifully written dance!
I adored the secondary
characters. The popular (and sometimes matchmaking) knitting circle, Tomy’s mom
and sister, all enhanced the story, giving it more depth and a better insight
into the personalities of the main characters.
Ari McKay delivered a
building of friendship to love, not always an easy road, and did it with clarity
and grace.
