"My love led me down a path I couldn’t return from. The sting of betrayal cut deep, opening my heart to another. But an evil wouldn’t let me go. I met it at the crossroads and only one of us was meant to survive. Jealousy fuelled the obsession. Obsession fuelled the craze. But how do you fight the insanity when the ones you love watched you die?"

"The dictionary defines “perfect” as entirely without fault or defect: flawless. Satisfying all requirements: accurate. Corresponding to an ideal standard or abstract concept. The problem with perfect is it's an unattainable perception of reality. The concept that perfection is possible, in any situation, is completely absurd. Nothing is flawless. Nothing satisfies all the requirements. Little did I know, my reality was flawed. The hammer dropped on my bliss before I even realized it was falling. It left me broken—wondering when everything went wrong."
~ Tragically Broken, The Broken Series "My desperate roar turns ungodly as my voice rumbles through the room. It cracks and breaks from the emotion that’s now coursing within me. I'm quickly losing my grip on sanity. Unable to feel the satisfaction of release, I pound my fists on the unforgiving cement below me. My knuckles bleed on impact. Even my callused skin is no match for the rigid surface.
~ Deeply Broken, The Broken Series "My memories of her are rushing in with the waves—each thought approaching closer and closer until they’ve almost reached me. It won’t be long before they saturate me, weigh on me. The gravity of her death pulls the wetness that’s been suppressed down over my cheeks to where it accumulates along my jaw. The current is relentless. It’s now high tide and I miss her so much."
~ Deeply Broken, The Broken Series "He was so intense—penetrating. His mere presence burned beneath my skin. There was a familiarity, yet somehow he felt different—changed. I have no memory to explain why I felt this way, but I could see the storm swirling behind his eyes. A turbulence of emotions brewed—concealed in their darkness. His complexity was confusing. Although, my reaction to him was even more unsettling.
The electricity between us was immense. The current travelled through every point of contact. It sizzled and sparked. The charge jump-started my heart after his first words stopped it. I don’t understand the feelings that were taking over. I can only surmise they had to do with our past. The visuals are lost, but my subconscious must still be holding on to the feelings and sensations I experienced." ~ Beautifully Broken, The Broken Series “I’ve exchanged one sin for another—one I can live with. Because hurting you is something I can’t bear. If you hurt, I hurt. If you cry, I cry. There will be no other love for me. Your name is tattooed on my heart. It’s a part of me now. It’s etched beneath my skin—into my soul. You’re my forever.”
~ Beautifully Broken, The Broken Series |
"A year has passed and my memories of that night are still misplaced in the recesses of my mind. You’d think something so defining wouldn’t be so easily lost, but I’m stuck between the life I remember and the life I’m told I lived. Ugly scars are the only visible signs that I’ve actually experienced any of the insane tales. But what people don’t see, are the scars that have formed much deeper—beneath the skin. The ones that have changed an innocent girl with dreams and aspirations into someone fighting to make it through from one day to the next."
~ Beautifully Broken, The Broken Series "I stumble trying to catch my footing before I collapse in a heap. My own blood loss was long forgotten in the madness, but it wants to make its importance known. The urgency of the evening has depleted my reserves. A wooziness is taking over, blurring the edges of my reality. Blackness hits me quickly, and before I can react, I find myself lying helpless on the hard ground."
~ Beautifully Broken, The Broken Series "[He] thinks he needs to watch me like a babysitter watches a child—waiting for the inevitable crash and bang that follows a tantrum. He doesn't realize I can't go on if I don't transfer the misery that’s crushing me. I dammed off all the feelings that surged when [she] died. I needed to push back the time for me to grieve because I wasn’t ready to accept it. And now, if I let all in, I'll surely be drowned by the undertow."
~ Deeply Broken, The Broken Series "The days go by and I'm slowly healing. The reminders of that night are fading away, and I find I want things to occupy my mind to erase the remaining traces. The many people that visited helped with the boredom, but when they're here, I want to close in on myself. They've been told what happened. I feel their pity and I feel embarrassed that they know. I feel shame for allowing someone so vile to enter my life. I feel heartache for what he took from me. I feel anger because he knew that he could. I feel a million emotions trying to simultaneously live inside me, but there's not enough room. I want to be alone, but feel lonely when I am. It's an unsolvable conundrum that plagues me."
~ Tragically Broken, The Broken Series “My heart isn’t as divided as it used to be because I’m slowly pushing him out from a place he no longer belongs.”
~ Deeply Broken, The Broken Series |
"Pieces of my past have vanished. They’re ghosted into an alternate reality where horrors stalked me and my life was gambled with the roll of the dice. It’s a dimension where I’ve locked my greatest fears—behind an imposing door—and my mind refuses to find the key. It fights this reality because it can’t accept that it’s experienced, first hand, the evils that I’ve only seen in movies."
~ Beautifully Broken, The Broken Series "My inability to remember is disconcerting. Disturbing. Anxiety grows in my convoluted brain as it tries to grasp onto the memories. I know they’re there. I can feel them. I can sense them. But it’s like their floating above me, just out of reach. My fingertips skim their jagged edges, only to push them farther away."
~ Beautifully Broken, The Broken Series "The beach below me draws my guilt. The place I once considered my sanctuary, now allows for dejected contemplation as the granules of sand flow freely through my fingertips—the possibility of [her] survival going with them. The dark backdrop of night provides a fitting scene for the heartache that blackens my days, and the harsh roar of the waves speak of the violence that put it there. They no longer provide me with the calming white noise that would focus my senses. Their monotonous cadence—the ebb and flow—would wash away my troubles rather than create the admonishing rumble that now rolls over me."
~ Deeply Broken, The Broken Series "With the amount of time we've been spending together, I feel the definitive line I put in place, marking our friendship, blurring. I've always felt close to him and known what an amazing person he is, but it's like my blinders have been lifted and I can truly see what has been there all along. He's a person that loves me, puts me first—would never lie to me or hurt me—these things are gradually smudging away my reservations. I'm beginning to wonder why they even existed in the first place. "
~ Tragically Broken, The Broken Series "Do I want to remember? The answer isn’t black or white. It resides somewhere in the middle—in the grey areas—where my curiosity battles my self-preservation."
~ Beautifully Broken, The Broken Series |
"Emotionally raw, suspenseful and addictive. You will not want to put this down.”

COMING SOON...PREFACEI never fit the mould of an abused woman. I had a great family life. Parents that loved me. A brother and sister that stuck with me through thick and thin. Amazing friends. A confidence that was envied by my peers.
Then he came along. Handsome. Chivalrous. Perfect. Then he wasn’t any of those things. I was strong enough to walk away. To hide. But then he’d find me. He’d always find me. It became a game of hide-and-seek. Every time I’d find a different place, but I could never stay hidden. Walls were too transparent. People were too transparent. I cut my hair. I dyed it. I changed my name… I tried to become invisible to everyone around me. Instead, I became the new girl. A person of interest. Someone hiding their past. I knew he would come for me again…just like every other time. When he found me that night, I had finally had enough. I wouldn’t let him rule me anymore. I finally stood up to him. I showed him I wasn’t the coward he married. That was the night when my life changed. That was the night when everything went dark. |
