Fractured Hearts Series
She was the girl of his dreams.
She became the ghost that ruined him.
Three summers ago, Yasmine Granger disappeared from Koda’s life with no warning and no goodbye—leaving behind nothing but a broken promise and a boy unraveling in an airport terminal. Since then, Koda’s been a shadow of himself, seeking comfort in fists, fast engines, and liquor bottles that never quite quiet the noise. When the pain gets too loud, he finds himself at his twin brother’s grave, chasing a kind of peace that no one alive seems to offer.
So when Yasmine shows up on his doorstep—uninvited, unexpected, and still wrapped in everything he never stopped needing—he doesn’t know whether to shut the door or fall to his knees.
But this time, it’s not her secrets that threaten to destroy them.
It’s his.
Caught in a spiral of unresolved pain, buried guilt, and long-withheld truth, Yasmine and Koda are forced to confront everything they tried to outrun. This time, love won’t be enough—not without war, forgiveness, and a willingness to bleed for it.
They’ve already been through hell.
Now they have to ask
Is it still love… if it’s what breaks you all over again?

Review of advance copy received from Author
“In all my dreams I never saw you, never imagined that you would have existed. But I was doomed from the beginning, the moment my eyes met yours that night. My heart started beating again, it thawed after being frozen for so long,”
Withering Secrets is the second (and upcoming) installment in the Fractured Hearts duet. When I say I loved the first book, Broken Promises, I truly thought I was prepared for what came next—but I wasn’t. This sequel somehow manages to be even better.
Where Broken Promises felt like a budding, edgy romance filled with youthful rebellion and raw, juvenile emotions, Withering Secrets is its grown-up counterpart. The stakes are higher, the circumstances deadlier, and the story expands into love across borders, enduring friendships, and choices that carry real weight.
Staying true to its darker themes while weaving in romance, this book shocked me in ways I didn’t expect. The deeper you get, the more action-packed it becomes—at times feeling less like a romance novel and more like a high-intensity spy film. It’s gripping, dramatic, and impossible to put down.
I cannot recommend this duet enough.
