Summary "Broken Vows" is a sweeping contemporary romance thriller interwoven with elements of psychological drama, suspense, and the redemptive journey of survival. The novel traces the harrowing and ultimately empowering journey of Maya Sinclair, a gifted architect trapped in a toxic and abusive marriage to Ethan Greystone, a powerful and manipulative billionaire. Set against the lavish yet oppressive backdrop of Greystone Manor, Maya's story unfolds through a series of trials, betrayals, forbidden desires, and revelations that force her to confront the darkest truths of her world-and herself. The story opens with Maya living a life that appears perfect to outsiders: a beautiful home, social status, and the trappings of wealth. Beneath the surface, however, she suffers emotional and physical abuse at Ethan's hands, her freedom eroded by control and secrecy. The arrival of Julian Locke, a private security consultant with a haunted past, sets the plot in motion. Julian's quiet strength and empathy ignite a spark of hope-and forbidden attraction-that Maya has not felt in years. Their growing bond, at first tentative and rooted in trust, slowly deepens into love, challenging Maya's perception of what is possible for her life. Amid escalating threats to the estate and Maya's safety, Greystone Manor reveals itself as a labyrinth of secrets. Maya stumbles upon cryptic messages and hidden journals chronicling the Greystone family's history of violence, corruption, and cover-up-a legacy that implicates not only Ethan but generations before him. As Ethan's control tightens and his rage becomes more dangerous, Maya, with the help of Julian and the steadfast housekeeper Mrs. Ashcroft, begins to plot her escape.
