Publisher's summary

Single, but unsettled, Stefano Borelli, spends his days creating masterpieces loved by his clients. Surrounded by family and friends, his loneliness still plagues him. Until she bursts into his life. A stubborn woman with too much baggage, too much to say, and a child in tow.

Far too much trouble.

Except he likes her spark. The way she refuses to listen. How beautiful she is with her son. How right she feels in his arms.

The way she makes him feel whole.

Can he convince her to give love a second chance?

Author's note: Do you love men who whisper sweet words in Italian? Be prepared to swoon for Stefano.

A MUST READ!!

Oh my heart....I can't even begin to explain what this story did to me, the emotions it evoked from me and when I say this is a book that needs to be read.....YOU NEED TO READ THIS BOOK!!! Fantastic story! The journey. The angst. The heartache. The swoon. Sexy and heart wrenching, with twists and turns that will have you gasping and begging for more. I will read this again just so I can drool over the hero... 

Maxine Mitchell & John Lane do an amazing job portraying the characters, bringing them to life and humanizing them with their emotions, attitude and personality. They do more than giving their characters their voices, they fall into the roles and become the character.

EPIC audiobook!!!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5 STARS

I read and listened to the audiobook and loved every moment! My word… John Lane and Maxine Mitchell are phenomenal with their narration. I absolutely love Stefano and Gabby. I devoured both the book and the audiobook. Melanie’s words are like a caress on my senses. Breaking The Speed Limit by Melanie Moreland is an EPIC read that will join the ranks of the BIBLIO-ARISTOCRACY!!!

A masterpiece ....

A masterpiece of heartache, humor and emotion that sticks to the soul. Moreland and company speak the language of love in the most vulnerable and endearing of ways.

Stefano, Gabby and Theo

An adorably sweet, charming and captivating journey to go on with Stefano, Gabby and lets not forget Theo. I loved how Stefano just stepped right up and admitted what he wanted, went for it and treated Gabby and Theo exactly how they deserved to be treated. I enjoyed every second of this story.
Maxine Mitchell and John Lane did a fantastic job bringing these amazing characters to life.

Great story and great narration

As I have come to expect from a book from Melanie Moreland, Breaking The Speed Limit was well written with characters whose story you cannot help but become quickly drawn in to. It was so good to be back in The Reynold’s Restoration world for Stefano Borelli, and Gabby’ s story and oh what a story it was.

Gabby explodes into Stefano’s life and turns it upside down with a tonne of baggage and her adorable little boy named Theo in tow. I loved these characters and the instant connection that sizzles between Stefano and Gabby when he comes to her rescue.

John Lane and Maxine Mitchell did a fabulous job with their performances. Their voices are wasy to listen to and they brought the story and the characters to life for me with their passionate and at times emotional narration.

The chemistry that ignites between them is so hot that I could almost feel myself bursting into flames. Gabby is a strong, sassy, loving mother and I loved her. I fell hard and fast for Stefano and wow the relationship he forged with Theo just about melted my heart.

From the first word to the last I was hooked. The banter between them is fun, and there was so much love that I felt like I had a permanent smile on my face.

Stefano is a Momma’s boy and I am so into it! Who doesn’t love a grown-ass muscly man who adores his mom and listens to whatever she says? Swoooon! His chemistry with Gabby is fiery from their first meeting, I never have any problem with Melanie Moreland’s isntaspark, in fact, I adored it! Stefano is a swoon-worthy sexy Italian with a dirty, filthy mouth, I especially love it when he speaks in his mother tongue. And my boy Theo! The most adorable baby boy, I love his relationship with Stefano and how he called him “Stefo”. I always teared up when a book has a scene where the kid asks the MC if they can be their mom/dad, it’s so touching…

This book has a brief third-act break up which I didnt mind, and it didnt drag on for too long, I already knew the suspense would come from a mile away. Give it to Melanie Moreland to always deliver the most beautiful ending. No matter how angsty the story is, I know my heart will be full and satisfied by the end of the book. I cannot recommend this series enough, I love it so much and am excited to meet Brett in the next book.

Who knows hearing John Lane speaking in Italian could do something to me? Cause yes, it did, I love it when accents are done right and not over the top. This duo is killing it again with the audio, and I’m always a fan of their work!

Beautiful & Heartfelt!!

Another wonderful, heartfelt, steamy romance by Melanie Moreland, you don’t want to miss. The second book in the Reynolds Restorations Series was captivating and heart melting. Stefano was sexy, protective and a total marshmallow when it came to Theo and Gabby. I loved how they became an instant family, even though Gabby had her reservations due to her traumatic past relationship. Stefano & Gabby’s relationship was beautiful. He was able to help her learn to trust and open herself up to love again, while she completed him in every sense. She made him feel like he was where he belonged. Stefano was another dreamy book boyfriend you can’t help but fall for. This was great as an ebook but on audio it was better! John Lane & Maxine Mitchell narrate this book. These two narrators have become a favorite duo to listen to. I love how they bring Stefano & Gabby to life. John Lane’s voice is always a perfect mixture of alpha and tenderness. Maxine Mitchell does an excellent job capturing Gabby’s fears but also her love for Theo and Stefano. Their Theo voices was the cutest! They definitely sounded like a 5 year old. This story is definitely a great weekend read or listen. Im excited to go back and read Maxx’s story and excited to read what happens next with Brett & Kelly.

Sweet and Sexy Romance!

I read it and loved it! This is the second book in the Reynolds Restorations series, a series of interconnected stories. I love this series! Stefano and Gabby’s story is sweet, funny and sexy. I was intrigued by Stefano in Revved to the Maxx, the first book in the series, and I was happy to have his story. He is very handsome, enigmatic, alpha, possessive and protective. Gabby, a single Mom, is beautiful, strong, and determined. They share an instant attraction. I liked their banter, the sizzling romance, and the little suspense. Theo is such a cute little boy. It was great to have a follow up in Charly and Maxx’s story! John Lane and Maxine Mitchell did an excellent job with the narration. I love their voices together. Looking forward to listening to Brett’s story in Shifting Gears, the next book in the series.

Just as amazing as the first

It’s a hard feat especially when the standard is high max and charlotte are awesome so happy to hear that update and then got the gem of Stefano and Gabby. The only thing that makes it a 4.8 for me was that Gabbys past didn’t come out sooner. I felt bad for Stefano who is a 10/10 for book boyfriends
