Cover credit @ChidChick Battered and Broken. Two words to describe Amanda. Born with a silver spoon and raised with a golden cup, Amanda had the perfect life on papers. But behind those perfectly adorned make ups and overly expensive accessories was a woman battered and broken, left with nothing but bitterness and pain. Hot tempered and rude was a mild way to put it, independent and strong another. Determined not to make the same mistake as her mother, Amanda will do anything but get married, but when she's presented with a marriage agreement by the one man she hates the most, she will do anything to thwart it. And what Amanda wants she gets, unless what she wants are two opposing things... *** Henry's life was perfect until his uncaring father decided to care. Familiar with the opposite gender, he has always loved demure, submissive, innocent and easy to bend women. But being presented with a marriage proposal, to a woman who he knew was far from what he wanted, he was determined to go against it. But the chocolate eyed, easily irked beauty like a magnet draws him in. Drawn into the family with enough trouble to put Igbo, Hausa and Yoruba to shame and enough hatred that surpass the three, Henry was just about to realize that money may not entirely be the solution. With death threats looming, and an obsessed psycho on the loose, the story is about to get more intense. With everybody a suspect Henry will just have to wonder, what exactly has he gotten himself into. *** "Is that so? He doesn't seem to think so, he looks like one who will want to keep you for himself, but unfortunately he's late, cause we are already engaged." "Don't be too certain" she retorted, "if everything goes as plan we will soon go our separate ways" his hold on her tightened, she couldn't help her body's reactions to that. "Maybe till then" he whispered, his voice hoarse "but as of now, and as long as this engagement is on. You.Are.Mine."
