Two years after being nearly killed, I return to my hometown of Gravity Hill, only to find that everything has changed. I didn’t expect anyone to have paused their lives while I was absent, but it’s shocking to see everything I missed. Figuring out how to reacclimate in my old life, with my old friends proves far more difficult than I expected. Even more puzzling is discovering that, regardless of the time I’ve been gone, the killer still wants me. So when I start finding mysterious notes and puzzle pieces–and my loved ones tell me they “have it handled”–I start questioning everything. My would-be killer was never found, and it seems that they are not going to rest until they have me, or I’m dead. Everyone I come across is a suspect. Bodies are piling up…. Doubt breeds distrust…. And through it all…. I’m left waiting for the pieces to fall into place. *Waiting for the Pieces is a mature novel, intended for a mature audience.

My senior year was supposed to be easy. I’m the king of campus at Ravard Prep and everyone wants to be with me. My dad told me to keep my head down and finish this year with no issues, but apparently even he couldn’t predict Cin Morgan. The day I meet the new girl, she puts me on my ass.

Thoughts of her consume me, peck at my willpower, and follow me everywhere. I’m obsessed, and it only gets worse when she shows up in my home bleeding and broken. The girl I hate has a darker past than even she knows. Now, all I want is to keep her, protect her, possess her. There’s a fine line between hate, obsession, and… love. Sins will be exposed. Lies will be unraveled. Love will be inevitable. Breaking you down until there is no other option. **Breaking You is a MATURE book. Meant for a mature audience above the age of 18. **. less
