Broken (Winchester Academy, Book 3)
$2.99
Note to self: don’t sleep with the gorgeous, tattooed, motorcycle-driving hottie after a friend’s train wreck of a bachelorette party.
Especially not when he looks at you like he wants to devour you.
Especially not when he’s a little younger looking than you.
Especially not when it turns out he’s your newest student.
…Oops.
Ethan Scott is the kind of man your mother warns you about. Reckless, cocky af, damaged, beautiful, of course, and completely irresistible. And if that weren’t a long enough laundry list of reasons to stay away?
…He’s also eight years my junior, and my student at the private high school where I teach art.
Winchester Academy’s newest bad boy student—my student—is utterly off limits. The problem is, he’s also gorgeous, tempting, addicting, and has me wrapped around his freaking finger.
The other problem is, I already slept with him.
He’s the firecracker waiting to blow, the spark that sets off the fire. He’s broken, and this whole thing could break us both. But something about him makes me go crazy. Something about him makes me say yes instead of no.
Something about him has me aching for more, no matter the consequences.
…This might be a problem.
Each of the Winchester Academy books are completely standalone stories, with no cliffhangers.
As with all my books, this steamy novella is safe, with no cheating, and a HEA guaranteed.

USA Today and #1 Amazon bestselling contemporary romance author Madison Faye is the dirty alter ego of the very wholesome, very normal suburban housewife behind the stories. While she might be a wife, mom, and PTA organizer on the outside, there’s nothing but hot, steamy, and raunchy fantasies brewing right beneath the surface!
Tired of keeping them hidden inside or only having them come out in the bedroom, they’re all here in the form of some wickedly hot stories. Single-minded alpha heroes, sinfully taboo relationships, and wildly over-the-top scenarios. If you love it extra dirty, extra hot, and extra naughty, this is the place for you!
(Just don’t tell the other PTA members you saw her here…)
Madison’s books have also been featured on MTV.com, VICE.com, and (probably) numerous government and concerned citizens watch-lists.

Book 3 of the Winchester Academy series. Up to this point, I think I enjoyed this book the most of the three. There’s something about Ethan and his bad boy persona (not to mention both tattoo sleeves) that earmarks him as a James Dean wannabe, but he really does have a heart of platinum. The misunderstood rebel artist is how I think of him. And for being a book character, I do envy his art studio more than any other character’s humble abode. (Read it, yourself! It’s in the book!) Add to the mixture one hot art teacher who managed to land this cushy job at this privileged academy where she can work on her personal portfolio as she really can’t quit her day job. Shake the two up, and we have a wonderful formula for mayhem where it’s the female who’s older (by eight years) who’s teaching the male (among other things). A little Mrs. Robertson, but I found this storyline very enticing and engrossing. Even when the shit hits the fan.
After that, the honeymoon is over…
Length and pace: I wish this novella was longer. It didn’t feel as long as the previous two. I’m not sure why Madison Faye didn’t flesh this one a little more. I have a half-dozen scenarios in this head that would have added additional spice without drawing out the inevitable. I will have to say that the epilogue was decent in terms of “aftercare”.
Characters: I was incredibly sympathetic towards Ethan and Emily. I’m not sure what it was that made Madison Faye create these two so satisfactorily because I wished she could have done just as good a job with her previous two books. This is one of those books that I would have gone back and reread entire swatches of passages because they were just that good! It was as if she managed to get into these twos’ heads! It was amazing! I wish there had been more.
World-creation: Most of the world-creating was outside of the academy! Oh, we do see some characters from the previous two books, and they do lend insight to this one (as well as being a harbinger of a future book) which helped. But I found the most intriguing and fantastical was Ethan’s home in what I think was a carriage house. This was redone to be his art studio and motorcycle garage. I really wished this could had been my place when I was much younger!
Continuity and editing: Too much misuse of commas, and in a lot of places, wrong words or misspellings and bad grammar. *sigh* Find yourself a new editor! I had to take off a star for this alone because the editing job was the worst out of the three so far. Continuity is good… except for one place unless the writer plans to write more books.
Realism: Maybe the main reason why I liked this was the effort in realism. The descriptive power in this book’s word-crafting was spectacular! This alone had earned the book five stars, sorry to say. (But the above robbed a star away from that. Dammmit!) Everything just felt so much more alive!
This is definitely the book to buy to justify the purchase of the previous two (and maybe the rest of this series). Not kidding. Is it because I really wished we had more Ethans in my high school? Most definitely! He might be a radical high school student, but I do appreciate him standing up for the ethics he had learned during various… “stints” (?) in his life so far. Better than most modern-day, über-rich trust-fund brats out there.

I don’t usually like older woman/younger man stories but this one is awesome. Ethan is an alpha male that is hot and a student of Emily’s.
Madison does this story some great justice with this student-teacher dirty read. Loved it
Romance lover –
Woo, this book is smokin’ hawt!! This is book 3 in the Winchester Academy series. It’s a flip from what we have been reading from Ms. Faye as it’s an older Female teacher/younger Male student romance. It is steamy from the beginning and only gets hotter. It even has some tears thrown in to shake things up a bit. I LOVED IT!!! I voluntarily received an ARC copy of this book and I am leaving an honest review.

There is no one who does naughty kink like Madison Faye. On top of the kink is the love story we all wish would happen to us. I loved this book! I am living for this new series. This is book 3 in the Winchester Academy Series.

Love the spin on the taboo of this one. Incredibly hot and drool/drip worthy! The way he goes after what he wants…whew so sweet. A must read in this series that is scorching hot!
I received an advanced copy for a honest review.

I am voluntarily writing a review for a ARC I received. I loved the reverse of the woman being the older teacher and the guy being the student. They are off the charts chemistry right from the start and the hero didn’t give up pursuing her until she gave in and accepted they were meant to be. Super hot book in the series and I highly recommend reading it and the other in this series. They can be read as stand-alone books. It are even better if read together.

Emily Hayes had a bad year, first her fiancé was having an affair with his secretary, then she got kicked out of the bar because of her reaction to a rich sleazy man at the bar got her tossed out of her friend’s bachelorette party…but walking back toward Winchester Academy where she moved into faculty housing as she was new art teacher…she sees someone spray painting a mural on an alley wall…the artist in her soared, the piece was fantastic. The beautiful young man in front of her stopped and prepared to leave…but the two just clicked after a short conversation and the resultant one-night stand was something Emily felt good about…until she discovered Ethan, an 18 year old, was her new student the following Monday…but you will need to read this steamy older woman, younger man story to see what happens and if they have any future together after Winchester Academy. I read this story through an Advanced Reader Copy.

This is a voluntary ARC…. And boy did I love every minute of it. I don’t usually get weepy eyed reading Madison Faye but this story had it all…. A hot cocky hero and a sassy sweet heroine. The story just flows and when your not fanning yourself over the incredible sexy times, Ethan and Emily are drawing you in. I don’t want to give anything away but yeah I got Misty eyed . But as always Madison protects our hearts and it’s a beautiful HEA ♥️

There are times when a book series gets old and boring, this is NOT one of those times! Broken is the perfect addition to the servers. Fresh, and new, the twist on the age gap was so seamless, and a little taboo, which is exactly what you get from Madison Faye. I had a little bit of trouble downloading the book, I bought it twice, just in case I made a mistake. Madison Faye is the only author I would buy the same book twice, in the same day!!! Totally worth it! Loved Broken!

I absolutely loved this book! It was wickedly HOT and deliciously taboo. Madison Faye never writes a dull book.

Broken by Madison Faye is the 3rd book in an very hot and steamy , no holes barred series! Book 3 just continues that rollercoaster ride of steamy scenes and feels that will have you rooting, craving and just enjoying the chemistry between Emily and Ethan who are teacher and student- the much taboo/forbidden relationship but theirs is much more than the heat. Theirs has heart. Get ready for the HEA. I can’t wait for book 4!!!
My Rating: 4.5 stars *******

Omg what a filthy and fun little read. Nicely written with great characters and a fabulous add to the series. My favorite one so far…

This is a voluntary ARC review. I loved this story. OMG, the beginning, with the hot AF, tatted ripped bike riding alpha. Swoon. A true alpha has no age, either he is or he isn’t, and this story, he is. The best part, is that from the very beginning, this story had my undivided attention, clear to the awesome ending. Read this book and you too will go into book stalker fan mode, and you’ll enjoy the ride.

If your looking for a fast read that’s over the top with yumminess, then this book is for you. Highly recommend you grab up “Broken” (Winchester Academy, Book 3)…. you won’t be disappointed ♨️

“Love is never wrong. It’s never “forbidden”, it’s just not understood sometimes.”
That is my favorite line from this story. I loved this addition to the series. There is a little role-reversal in the fact that the “barely legal” student is a male and the teacher is female. I guess what’s right for the gander is also right for the goose..lol. Also, if you actually think about it, this story also has a message about believing in yourself and your talent.
*I received an Advance Reader’s Copy of this book which I am voluntarily reviewing*

Broken by Madison Faye is another excellent read by this author.
Book 3 in the Winchester Academy series – can be read as a stand alone.
A super hot, sexy read with a HEA.
Emily & Ethan are great characters with amazing chemistry.

I love the fresh take on the teacher/student theme. When they first meet she doesn’t know, but the next…well then she just can’t resist.
It is over the top steamy, and if you enjoy thst then you’ll love this one.
I voluntarily reviewed an Advanced Readers Copy of this book.

This is the third book in this wickedly delicious, forbidden and sinfully hot series. In this book we get Emily and Ethan’s story. This is a student/teacher, older woman/younger man romance that delivers lots of naughty with an equal helping of heart. I thought that the pull of attraction between these two characters was practically gravitational. It simply could not be ignored or escaped. Their chemistry sparked and sizzled and their intamate scenes were scorching hot!!! The entertaining storyline offers a tempting blend of intense emotions, tension and drama. I loved this book and can’t wait for more of this incredibly enjoyable series.
Susan Stegemann –
Just like all of Madison Faye books, I loved it! I can’t wait for the next one in this series! The little peek you got at the end of Broken, just got your juices flowing for the next one in this series!Highly recommend you read this great story and all the rest of the sexy and smutty series! The Queen of Smut does it again!

Deliciously taboo!!!
Emily is having a rough go of things lately. She catches her fiancé banging his secretary, loses her apartment and gets kicked out of a bar. Then she has some good luck and ends up having the best s*x of her life with a younger man in an alley. But OMG, said younger guy ends up being her new eighteen year old student at the high school she teaches art at…lol. This is a taboo, scandalous read and I loved every single second of it. I highly recommend it and I’m looking forward to the next book in this series called Banned!!!!
Raquelq90 –
Loving this taboo series just keeps getting better. Emily is going through a tough time when she comes across a hot guy in an ally and proceeds to have the hottest night of her life. Emily thinks she will never run across her hot stranger only to see him the next day in class as her student! What follows is a scandalous and very steamy read with a very hot and mature younger guy.
Voluntarily read and reviewed an arc of this book

I’m absolutely loving reading this amazing series, each book can’t come quick enough till I get my next fix. Broken is my new favourite, Ethan is sexy as hell and hot all over, couldn’t say no to him which is exactly what happens to Emily, even though she’s his Art teacher. I love the flow of these books and how all the characters link. Can’t wait to read Ethan’s twin brother, Jamison’s book. That will definitely be an interesting read. Well done Madison!!
