About BROKEN BY LIES:
I had no idea how much I would love Alex the day he walked into my life.
He changed everything.
The way I breathed.
The way I thought.
The way I loved.
He brought me back to life.
He gave me strength and a safe place to land.

And then he broke me.

Finding Emilia was a chance to do something good for once in my life.
I wanted to change.
She believed I was her savior.
I ached to be.
She found her way into my heart and claimed it as her safe place.
I should be telling her the truth about me…instead I break her with lies.




      Poor Emilia.  Poor Alex.  Both have lived very different but very difficult lives.  Emilia grew up just trying to makes ends meet, just her and her mother until one day she loses her mother tragically.  Alex ends up taking over his father's business, trying to do things differently than how dear old dad did.  
     After Emilia tragically loses her mom, she leave Illinois in search of her father.  A father that she has never seen or ever met.  This leads Emilia to Arizona where she meets Alex.  From first sight, there a connection that neither of them can explain.  Alex ends up taking Emilia in and giving her a place to stay.  Emilia, never one to take handouts, finally agrees but does not plan to stay long and vows to pay Alex back.  Soon Emilia and Alex, begin a sort of relationship but Emilia gets a job at the local coffee shop and meets Sam.  Things then begin to get complicated!

EXCERPT:

BROKEN BY LIES EXCERPT:
Chancing a quick glance over my shoulder, I hear the squeaky hinges of a door opening just as I run square into the person exitingI startle and try to step back as I begin apologizing profusely, but firm hands grip my shoulders, not allowing me to move.
“I’m so sorry,” I gasp. The keycard falls from my hand and lands at the feet of the man I nearly ran over. Looking down, my eyes take in his expensive black shoes, the keycard resting on the ground just in front of him.
His hands release my shoulders, and I lunge for the keycard, but he’s too quick, reaching down and picking it up before I can get to it. His tan fingers wrap around the cheap plastic as he stands up. In shock for a moment, I finally pull myself up and meet his amber eyes.
“Are you okay?” He narrows his honey-colored eyes on me, and I take in his gray dress pants, black shirt, no tie. His hair is short, but slightly wispy on top—a little messy, not perfectly in place. His skin is golden brown, as if he’s been on a tropical vacation. His tan skin makes those amber eyes pop against his dark eyelashes. His square jaw is sprinkled with just enough hair to show he hasn’t shaved today, but it’s his dimples that take my breath away. He’s so well put together I’d guess he was in his thirties. He may be the most beautiful man I’ve ever laid eyes on, but he screams money, power—danger.
“Are you okay?” he asks again, tilting his head at me as I drink him in.
“Oh, um…yes, sorry…just nervous.” I look away from him and down to my fidgeting hands.
He glances behind me at the men on the sidewalk and then back to me as if piecing things together. “Are they harassing you?” He gestures with his head.
“No.” I shake my head. “I’m just tired. It’s been a really long day. I’m sorry I bumped into you,” I say timidly. I extend my hand, palm up in an unspoken gesture for him to return my keycard. My hand shakes as he looks between the card in his hand and me. His thumb flicks at the little yellow sticky note before he turns around and walks toward the door marked one hundred forty-three. He inserts the keycard and pushes the door open, holding it for me.
My heart stammers in my chest as I approach cautiously. I notice the expensive watch on his wrist, which peeks out from his dress shirt, and the light, luxurious smell of what can only be designer cologne. The scent paralyzes me—so intoxicating that I want to press my face to his neck and breathe him in.
Everything inside me—my good sense, my gut—screams at me not to walk toward that door, but I go against my better judgment. In three quick strides, I’m standing at the open door to my motel room as his amber eyes follow me. Brushing against him, I slide by and reach for the lights on the wall just inside the door. Only a small bedside lamp illuminates the room. I notice the musty smell as I glance around at the old furniture.
“Close this door and lock it,” he says, pulling the keycard from the door. He steps just over the threshold and into the room, reaching out to me with the keycard. “Don’t open this door for anybody. Understand?”
I swallow hard and nod. His fingers are warm against my palm as he places the keycard in my hand. My fingers instinctively close and trap his hand in mine. Rooted in place, he scans the room as if searching for something or someone. With no other words of warning or even a goodbye, he pulls his hand free and steps back through the door, closing it behind him with a loud bang.

    This. Book. Was. Awesome
    I read it in one sitting. The right mix of dark and romance. Not to much dark and a whole lot of swoon moments. Plus he was putty when it came to Em. Now on to the next one
