Daisy and Damian are no longer playing games. Between them, a war rages—driven by raw desire, vicious jealousy, and the desperate need to stay in control. What binds them isn’t soft love. It’s possession. Obsession. A hunger that destroys everything it touches. Damian doesn’t love quietly. He takes. He holds on. And he doesn’t let go—even when he knows he should. As Daisy is pulled deeper into her father’s ruthless mafia empire, she uncovers a deception far greater than it first appears. What begins as a single detail unravels into a revenge no one saw coming- Some stories aren’t what they seem. And the deeper you go, the darker it becomes.
Wow….I have been waiting patiently for this book since I’ve read the first one and boy did I devour it in less than 24 hours. Daisy is the daughter of Franco the powerful mafia leader. Daisy left New York to get away from Damian. Damian is obsessive and possessive and doesn’t love like a normal person. He protects what is his through violence especially when it comes to Daisy. He was suppose to just watch over her but she unleashed something in him he couldn’t just let her go. I loved their story and how Damian would burn the world down for her. This book isn’t your typically dark romance book. It’s about obsession and control and a love that goes back and forth until they realize they can’t let one another go. Broken was intense and toxic in the best way possible. I couldn’t put it down. If your into the emotional damage, obsession and control type you should definitely read both the Broken book. It will destroy you and put the pieces back together.
Hands down one of the best dark romances I’ve read! I finished the books within a couple of days. Can’t wait for the next book in the series to see what happens next, such a twist at the end of book 2!
After the first book, you better believe I jumped into this one.
Damian, is still an a$$hole but as they say you can’t help who you love. Daisy, is all over the place because of him though she has Tristan who shows her compassion, a listening ear and offers her safety, all the things Damian can’t. Yet, they are all drawn into the darker side of the mafioso, where Franco needs his daughter to be safe even though he himself puts her in compromising situations. Damian, can’t help himself with his own possessiveness toward her in one hand yet thwarts her with the other. We are taken through a series of incidents, other clans drawing in and one danger they didn’t expect but should have, as it can cause more damage to the clan and their relationship 😬
I couldn’t put it down, I needed to know…will her love be lost, will she turn to the one who offers safety? At times it was a tense read, the emotions, there were spicy times that you thought may help them, for it to fizzle out but the draw to one another remained. Valeria’s writing ensures you are turning the pages to keep up with the back n forth, the ups and downs inevitably leading us to an ending that well, gives us answers but also entices us with more questions 🤭
This book jumps straight in from the end of the first and does not slow down.
Daisy is pulled deeper into her father’s mafia world. There is a war building and she is taken as a bargaining chip and put through hell.
She loves Damian, but he does not show love in a soft way. For him it is control and possession. She is his and no one else’s.
The touch her and die energy is intense here. He would destroy anyone who even looked at her wrong.
I didn’t think anything could top the first book, but this one did. I read it in four hours and could not put it down. I was completely gripped the whole way through.
You feel like you shouldn’t love Damien, but you do. You feel like you should choose Tristan, but you don’t.
This is the kind of book that stays with you afterwards and that you keep replaying in your head.
Please check your triggers with this one. I already cannot wait for the next book.
Omg this book was one heck of a ride. Damien is just so frustrating and I did not like him very much but couldn't help but feel a twinge of empathy for him.
Daisy is too dang oblivious for her own good, she starts to see the truth but still dresses it better than it is. She knows something is bad, dangerous and down right suicidal and still skips right into it like it's a Sunday picnic.
Tristan i like, but with the ending of this book it has me gasping and thinking is he worse than Damien as he is the monster that hides in plain sight. He seemed so sweet like he could be the better choice for Daisy but the ending had me reevaluating that thought.
I cannot wait for Tristans' book and figuring out what he and Damien are up to. what will happen to Franco and will Daisy forgive them for whatever is to come.
Ok. I may need more mental health because I was not only addicted to her first book but I am full on addicted to her second book. I kept reading every second I could because I could not stop. 😹 I'm already salivating at the mouth for the third book especially with the crazy twist and cliffhanger ending. I want to be the bird sitting on her window ledge reading as she types out the third book.
Even when her male characters are walking red flags, I still find myself drawn to Damian and Tristan especially with the way she describes him. We still follow Daisy and Damian directly after the ending of the first book, while they are in Rome with her father.
This is a dark mafia romance and it does get dark. Do not expect romance or soft sweet kisses or healing love. Read the triggers to make sure you're ok before going head long into this series. Because you will want to go head long with the first book into the second book with no breaks.
I received an advance copy and I am writing this truthful review of my own volition.
Just finished Broken Part 2 by Valeria Morgan and I’m honestly impressed. The story pulls you in right from the beginning and keeps building with so much emotion and tension. The characters feel real and layered, and you can really feel their struggles, growth, and the complicated relationships between them. What I loved most is how the book balances intense, heartbreaking moments with hope and resilience. The writing style is engaging and easy to get lost in, making it hard to put the book down once you start reading. Every chapter adds something meaningful to the story and keeps you curious about what will happen next. If you enjoy emotional stories with strong character development and plenty of drama, Broken Part 2 is definitely worth the read. It’s a powerful continuation that leaves a lasting impression.
Absolutely devoured it ! I was lucky enough to be an arc reader for the first book and boy oh boy did book 2 not disappoint.
Everything got so much more real and deeper in book 2 . The attention to detail in every character and chapter were fantastic.
I did feel like something was missing all the way through until I got to the very end -then I understood . I needed more from a certain character but all made sense in the very last few lines .
“She never realised the real monster was the one you don’t see coming.”
I can’t wait to continue on with the story and fill in that missing piece !
As always a massive thank you to Valeria for writing beautifully and getting me hooked from the moment that arc hit my inbox all those months ago
Both books was quite interesting to read. Couldn't put them down, because I really wanted to know what's next. But I was and still am disappointed about ending. Of course there was trigger warnings about the story - about toxic relationship, but toxic relationship can't end with both of them (Daisy and Damian) riding happily off to the sunset. Thats just stupid and gross. There was no love. I really hoped that Daisy could find love with Tristan, but no. Yes, maybe Tristan was just as dark as Damian bet there was something more human in him than in Damian. Tristan was there for Daisy and I think thats more important than mind blowing sex with Damian that includes choking. I think Damian is incorrigable and sick.
Who doesn't love when 2 broken souls find each other and hold on tight even if they are toxic for each other. Damian and Daisy are 2 people who should not be together but they can't stay away from each other. Both have broken pieces inside of them, but hey who doesn't these days. People keep trying to keep them apart, he pushes her away and then keeps coming back just as she starts to move forward. He is so possessive it is ridiculous, but if I had a man like this in my life, I wouldn't turn him away either. I am glad we got some of the story from Tristan's POV as well. I can't wait for his story! xoxo

Wow. Just wow. The whole book had me hooked! Great story, a plot twist I didn't see coming. Does she end up with the wrong man? I'll leave that up to the readers, however, I know which one I'd choose 😉
I cannot wait to read the next part of this story. Will it be a trilogy or more?!?
This book was everything I didn't know I needed! This is the second book in the "Broken" series, and I've just got to say, Valeria DID NOT disappoint! I legit felt all the feels during this roller coaster and never even saw the end coming! Waiting on the third book is going to KILL ME🥴🤣
Totally hooked on these books, this is not a love story but a story of distruction. Would we ever want to be Daisy...no..but she understands what she is. Can't wait for Tristians book
Didn't enjoy it as much as the first book. I would much rather see Daisy with Tristan to be honest..The constant rejection , take her back, rejection , take her back by Damian got on my nerves.
Another great book by Valeria Morgan! I loved how the book kepted me hooked! Just the right amount of spice too! Can't wait to read the next one in the series!
