Shattered

By Mary Lydick

Shattered A Dark Romance Novel I thought I was broken when I met him. I didn't know what broken really was until he loved me. Emery is no stranger to chaos. She's survived a turbulent childhood, built walls no one can climb, and taught herself to breathe in the silence of her own pain. But when she meets Jace Bastian--a powerful, obsessive man with secrets darker than her past--her world doesn't just tilt, it shatters. Jace offers her everything: protection, luxury, devotion. But his love comes wrapped in control. And Emery doesn't realize how deep she's sinking until she's gasping for air. Then there's Jordyn. Steady, kind, and impossible to ignore. The boy with soft eyes who sees through her armor, the man who refuses to let her drown--even when she can't see a way out. Torn between two worlds--one that owns her and one that could save her--Emery must make an impossible choice. Stay in the gilded cage that's killing her slowly, or risk everything to find the girl she used to be. A story of trauma, obsession, survival, and the aching, brutal road to healing, Shattered is a gripping dark romance that will break your heart and slowly stitch it back together. Trigger warnings apply. Not all love is safe. Not all monsters hide in the dark.
