Hardened Hearts: A Psychological Fiction of Secrets and Shattered Trusts

By Samyra Alexander

EVEN THE STRONGEST SURVIVORS CAN SHATTER

Parrish has built a life of perfect control. As a domestic violence advocate and newly engaged bride-to-be, she is the pillar of her community. But when her own sister is murdered by an abusive partner's "other woman," the pillar begins to crumble. The system Parrish served has failed her family, and grief is quickly turning into a cold, calculated rage.

Dillon, the shelter's art therapist, has always used her trauma as armor. But she's haunted by a client who returned to a monster-and a child whose "accidental" injuries tell a much darker story. Dillon knows the truth, but the law is powerless to intervene.

Bound by a shared desperation, the two friends realize that if they want justice, they'll have to take it. But as they cross the line from protectors to vigilantes, they discover that some secrets were meant to stay buried.

When the world ignores the cries for help, Parrish and Dillon will make sure they are finally heard-even if it costs them everything.

Hardened Hearts is a gripping psychological suspense that asks: how far would you go to protect the person no one else will save?
