Broken Tears

At twenty-two, Evon Charter knows exactly how to command a room.

Beautiful, fearless, and newly viral after a performance at one of New York's hottest clubs, Evon believes her life is finally beginning to move in the direction she wants. Then she disappears after work without a trace.

Her social media says she joined an exclusive traveling entertainment company. Her apartment is cleared. Her job receives a resignation she never wrote. To everyone searching for her, Evon willingly left her old life behind.

The truth is far darker.

Hidden inside a luxury trafficking operation disguised as private entertainment, Evon is trained, evaluated, and auctioned to powerful men who can afford to ignore the signs that none of the women are truly free. Smoke, the man who selected her, sees her as his most valuable investment. Shaun, the guard assigned to watch her, becomes the only source of softness she can find inside the building. And Tyrone Williams, the wealthy criminal determined to buy her permanently, offers an escape that may only lead to a more beautiful cage.

Every man claims he wants to protect her.

Every man benefits from keeping her trapped.

But Evon was never chosen because she was easy to control. As attraction blurs into obsession and buried secrets begin exposing the organization from within, she realizes freedom will not be given to her.

She will have to take it and decide who deserves to survive when she does.
