After years of torment and pain, I'm just a shadow of the woman I once was. Even now, after months of freedom, the lingering aches of broken bones, and the memories of unspeakable horrors still keep me from living a life of peace.

While I try my best to put back all the broken pieces, the last thing I need is another man-or so I thought.

Jake is one of Hollywood's hottest, most popular actors. He's the kind of man a woman like me should avoid at all costs. But his determination to prove to me that happiness is more than just a shattered dream slowly starts to break down my defenses, and I start to hope that I might still be able to find love.

Unfortunately, with a painful history like mine, hoping for a better future can turn out to be a huge mistake-especially when the demons of your past refuse to let you go.

I never expected my life to spiral like this. Once, I thought Tyler was the perfect guy-charming, sweet, the one who made me feel special. But when the guy I thought I knew turned abusive, everything changed. I found myself stuck in a toxic relationship, trapped in a cycle of manipulation and hurt. The one night I thought I could escape it all, I ended up in Aiden's room, a stranger who saw me for who I really was, not just a pretty face and a hot body. But Aiden isn't just any guy-he's kind, compassionate, and unlike guy I've ever met. Now, as my abusive relationship threatens to swallow me whole, Aiden is the only person who makes me feel safe. But can I let go of everything I thought I knew about love? Or will I risk it all for something real? Rankings #1abusiveboyfriend - 14/03/25 #1 bookworm - 22/03/25
