BROKEN - (Young Derek Hale){Book 1}
'BROKEN'
(of a person) having giving up all hope; despairing
They say broken souls attract-but what happens when both are too shattered to trust the light?
TAYLOR has always been a loner. Not because people pushed her away-but because she pushed them first. Ever since her mother died, she's built her walls high and thick, keeping everyone out to protect herself from being used... or abandoned. At home, life is even darker-marked by bruises and silence. The only things that keep her going are her sketchpad and a fascination with the supernatural. In a world that never felt like hers, she's searching for something more-something real.
DEREK is everything Taylor isn't-popular, confident, the star of the basketball team. But beneath the surface, he's just as broken. Ever since the death of Paige, the girl he loved-and the moment his eyes turned from gold to haunted blue-he's lived with a promise: never let anyone close again. Because love, in his world, always comes with a price.
When fate pulls Taylor and Derek into each other's orbit, their scars begin to surface. She sees the monster beneath his charm. He sees the pain behind her silence. But as danger closes in and secrets rise from the shadows, they'll have to decide:
Can two broken halves become whole, or are they destined to stay lost in the darkness?
