Broken: A Rouge Contemporary Romance

Broken: A Rouge Contemporary Romance

Summary

A girl with secrets, a guy with scars, and a love that could save them both . . . or destroy them.

When Olivia Middleton abandons the glamour of Park Avenue for a remote, coastal town in Maine to help an injured war veteran reenter society, everyone assumes she's being the kind do-gooder she's always been. But Olivia has a secret: this isn't about charity - it's about penance. Only, Olivia's client isn't the grateful elderly man she's expecting...

Paul Langdon will do anything to stay in self-imposed exile. But Paul doesn't count on his newest caretaker to be the beautiful twenty-two-year-old who makes him long for things that he can never have.

Now Paul and Olivia have to decide: will they help each other heal? Or are they forever broken?

A coming-of-age novel, perfect for fans of Colleen Hoover & Monica Murphy.
