Broken and Powerful

"For you, I will kill Jerad. But you must stay here until you are better. You will train until you are back to where you used to be. Then, when you are ready, you will fight with two of my best men.

Jeda Colle was a beautiful woman with willpower like no other. She was a head-turner wherever she went because her natural beauty was unmatchable. With her long dark amber hair, and piercing hazel eyes that looked into your soul. Her smile was bright and vibrant and could fill a room, no matter how dark.

But after suffering from domestic abuse for years, her willpower starts to break when her boyfriend, Jerad Lenard, cuts her off from the outside world.

No phone. No car. No connections.

No way out.

That is until a strange walks up to her front door and gives her a deal that could set her free. But in order to get freedom, she has to meet Stefano Remez in their deal.

Stefano Remez was a dangerous, powerful leader of a deadly organization. One look from him and others would fall to their knees in fear.

But after some time together and a near end of Jeda's life, Jeda finds her voice slowly.

When disaster turns into romance, Jeda fears letting another man into her heart will only break her more.

Because deep down she knew what she was.

Broken.
