Broken People

By Elle Mitchell

"On my very best days, I'm hanging from a very delicate thread, walking an even more delicate line over a river of broken things that I've barely managed not to let consume me. I do this by existing behind a veil of biased facts I tell myself about what happens when you expect better from people and what they can do to you when you let them in. Despite all of this, somehow, he had made it in..." Ruby Vaughn lives her life by a certain set of rules. One of these rules clearly states that things like love and greatness--anything beyond basic contentment, really--was meant for other people, but not for her. A freelance writer by day and a bartender by night, Ruby spends what spare time she has watching her best friend, Evie, live a dream that's always going to be just out of reach for her and the man she's in love with, Alex, fall in love with someone else. She'd resigned her fate to living a little smaller--a little safer--to keep her darkness to herself, but then she meets Jake, and nothing will ever be the same. Raw with emotion and beautifully flawed, Ruby, as the antihero of her own story, is bound to captivate and resonate with readers who know what it's like to lose and feel lost, and to find themselves again in the most unexpected of places.
