Fractured
DAMAGED SERIES, BOOK FOUR
|
They thought they had everything figured out, but the one thing they didn’t plan for was me.
One minute and ten seconds… Without a heartbeat. Without breath. Without thought. That’s how long I was able to abandon my heartache before the doctors brought me back. I know I should’ve been thankful for the miracle. Few people get to experience death and live to tell about it. Yet, as I lay in a sterile hospital room, reliving the moment I became a martyr for the woman who didn’t want me anymore—who gave her heart back to her last love—I felt the weight of some brutal truths. I’d lost my girl, my mobility, and my life. I wallowed in them. Took them out on the people unlucky enough to care for me. That included the beautiful blonde nurse with chocolate brown eyes and a smile that made me forget the pain that put me there. But I left her ten months ago, and I didn’t expect to see her again. At the same mall. About thirty feet away. With a man’s arm wrapped around her neck, restraining her. And he’s not alone. His men have taken everyone hostage. He’s holding her for ransom. And no one is getting out alive unless I risk it all again. ___________ PLEASE NOTE: This book contains dark themes and sensitive subject matter that may be difficult for some readers. Recommended for readers 18+. ___________ Fractured is the first book in a three-book romantic suspense series of companion novels to the Broken series. Each book can be read as a standalone, though if you plan to read the Broken series, it would be best to read Fractured after the trilogy as it contains major spoilers. |
