TRAGICALLY BROKEN: The Broken Series, Book 1
Her past brought us together, but it was mine that tore us apart. She was stunning-long, wavy hair and a smile that could bring a man to his knees. The moment my eyes locked onto hers, there was no one else. Not the party around me. Not the blonde on my lap whispering in my ear. Just her. I told myself it was nothing. My eyes wandered to beautiful women all the time. But there was just something about this one that drew me in. I needed to talk to her, needed to know her. That's why, when the girl on my lap tried to stake her claim, I was quick to shut her down. But I was too late. The brunette was already gone-vanished like a fire had been lit beneath her feet. A scream. That's how I found her. Crumpled beneath the trees. Battered. Broken. I held her until help arrived, but somewhere between finding her and letting her go, she'd already carved herself into parts of me I'd never get her out of. I couldn't forget her-couldn't let go of what had happened to her. And apparently neither could he. Because the man who assaulted her is back, and he's not letting her go without a fight. I just didn't expect I'd become the reason for everything that came next. ___________ PLEASE NOTE: This book contains dark themes and sensitive subject matter that may be difficult for some readers.

Alex grabbed my wrist quickly and stopped me in my tracks. I glanced up at him, shocked. I couldn't read him right this second. I panicked. "I'm sorry." I pulled my hand back to my chest. Did I just ruin this moment? I'm such an idiot! "No, don't apologise, Lucy." He grabbed hold of my hand and squeezed it gently. I was slightly confused. I thought I'd just repulsed him for a split second. I wasn't ready for The words coming out of his mouth next. "I want you to," he groaned. "God, Lucy, I really do. But I want to be able to reciprocate, and I want you to want me to do so. I want you to feel ready.

Sofia has spent her whole life being told what love is-through whispered apologies, bruised promises, and the kind of pain that lingers long after the bruises fade. She's learned to survive in a home that never felt like one, to smile through the weight of secrets no child should carry. Then there's Zayn. He's everything she should stay away from-reckless, untouchable, dangerous in ways she can't name. But when he looks at her, she feels seen in a way she never has before. In his arms, the world quiets, the chaos stills... until reality reminds her that happiness was never hers to keep. Because love is supposed to hurt. Right? And when the past refuses to stay buried, Sofia is forced to choose: the life she's always known or the one that might destroy her. Some truths are too heavy to speak. Some love stories are never meant to last.
