I have a depraved secret and the new guy in town is determined to uncover my truth. My brother's perversions against me have escalated, and as a result, I start to spiral. My behavior becomes reckless as my situation blows up, yet no one at school notices the suffering I hide. No one, but him. Ayden Mitchell. Ayden inserts himself into my life, even though I try to push him away. I don't trust easily, but he doesn't stop chipping away at the walls I've built, his determination to know all of my secrets both frustrating, and tempting. I find myself drawn to his allure, but who the hell am I kidding? I've been tainted in the worst way, and a guy like Ayden Mitchell deserves better than the likes of me. As I battle to find strength, coming to terms with the vile acts my dad and brother inflicted on me, my depraved secret gets revealed to the world, and everything changes. All of a sudden there are dangers around every corner, and any glimmer of hope vanishes as Ayden's past catches up with us and I find myself staring down the barrel of a gun. If you salivate over a swoon worthy protector like in the movie, Safe Haven, and love the internal teen trauma from the movie, The Fallout, plus thirst for the nail-biting brutality and suspense from movies like The Invisible Man, then you'll love the Heavy Hearts Series. One click today to immerse yourself in the dark and emotionally gripping story of how Lexi and Ayden find love through their trauma.  FOR READERS OVER THE AGE OF 18
