Imbalance Vol 1

Violet Cartier seemingly has it all; the heiress to a prestige jewellery company, beautiful, clever, popular and kind. However, look a little closer and you'll see the cracks; a broken family; serious trust issues due to previous relationships; self-worth doubts and many more. The only stable thing she has going is her fabulous group of friends, who she has known since school.

When her best friend Harper announces that her little brother, Asa, is between deployments, Violet is shocked to find that 'little' Ace is not so little anymore.

In a shocking turn of events, Violet finds herself taking refuge with Harper's family, where she and Asa find themselves unequivocally drawn to each other. She's 22, and he's 20, and it's been six years since they last saw each other.

----------------------------

Asa is a Marine of 6 years. After finishing his third tour of Iraq, he finds himself back home between his deployments. The only issue? His PTSD is the worst it has ever been, and Asa hates being out of control. Naturally, Asa has known Violet since childhood, and was utterly smitten with her during his teens. Nevertheless, Violet is not a girl anymore, but a beautiful woman, and Asa still can't ignore the insatiable pull towards her.

In a storm of desire, tension, forbidden fruit and lust, Asa and Violet are finding it impossible to stay away from each other. But neither of their lives are simple.
