[Unbreakable 02.0] Rule Breaker
by Kat Bastion
For the first time, includes a sneak peek of Lawbreaker in celebration of its new release. Lawbreaker is now available on Amazon.
Leilani Kealoha wants to be set free. Of family expectations. Of generations of prejudice.
Chafing at rules made by the proud Hawaiian men in her family, she yearns to discover herself and hungers to explore the world. Her adventuresome heart? Longs for something even greater, deeper.
The last thing she expects is an East Coast haole surfer to hold the key to everything.
Mason Price is done walking his parents’ path. Done with social acceptance—with cold politics.
On a surfing quest to reinvent himself, Mase finds an exotic beauty standing on his towel. But it’s her feisty bargaining that catches him off guard. When he challenges her with a “Truth or Shots” drinking game, she unwittingly reveals more than she’d intended about herself…and him.
The raw truth stuns him: She’s suffered like he has, is lost like he is—keeps secrets like he does.
But will young love and shared situations be enough to conquer racial and cultural divides?
Lines in the sand…were meant to be crossed.

**Review
"A beautifully written novel, that left me philosophical and touched my heart...that resonated with me deeply. My FAVORITE novel by the Bastions so far."
~ *Closet Geek Books*
"What a great read! Filled with powerful writing...an enchanting, romantic, steamy-hot story with amazing characters who find it in themselves to risk it all for love! I very much enjoyed this book!"
~ *Craves the Angst Reviews*
"This book is perfection!"
~ *Coyote Ugly Swagger Book Blog*
"This is my first book by Kat and Stone Bastion and I was very taken by their writing style. The story is captivating and richly detailed... the character development and the sense of place was fantastic...kudos to the authors for their wonderful description of Hawaii life and language!"
~ *The Book Bellas*
"Rule Breaker is a compelling and poignant story that pushes boundaries and challenges the reader in so many ways. About love, your own prejudices, and even feelings on the environment. These authors have an innate ability to write like no one else. They deliver and craft stories that do not fit the mold and for authors like them in this world, I am grateful."
~ *Biblio Belles*
"This book is so beautifully told and had so much heart thrown into it! I've read quite a few books this year, but this one struck a chord in me. The story...the intimacy between the characters! Just go one click it!"
~ The Sarcastic Bitch from *Bitches N' Books*
"I have recommended this series to everyone in my office. I can't stop talking about it...this one will stay with me."
~ Blagica, Goodreads early reviewer
"Oh, wow. What an outstanding read. This heartfelt romance will own you. I feel for the books I read after it because after reading Rule Breaker I felt as though every book should be measured against this one."
~ *TJLovesToRead*
"I'm a sucker for a good Romeo & Juliet type story and this one delivered on that, in a pretty phenomenal way."
~ *Winchester Book Reviews*
"I tend to avoid books that are set in Hawaii like the plague, it's a little quirk of mine and has to do with the fact that I am a born and raised Hawaii girl and am a little picky with how my islands are portrayed...as I kept turning the pages my wariness faded away and I before I knew it I felt like I was home. The sights, smells, tastes and sounds were right there in front of me..."
