About the book:

Lauren Layne’s heart-wrenching novel tells the story of a girl with secrets, a

guy with scars, and a love that could save them both . . . or destroy them.



When Olivia Middleton abandons the glamour of Park Avenue for a remote, coastal

town in Maine, everyone assumes she’s being the kind do-gooder she’s always been.

But Olivia has a secret: helping an injured war veteran reenter society isn’t about

charity—it’s about penance. Only, Olivia’s client isn’t the grateful elderly man she’s

expecting. Instead, he’s a brooding twenty-four-year-old who has no intention of

being Olivia’s path to redemption . . . and whose smoldering gaze and forbidden

touch might be her undoing.



Paul Langdon doesn’t need a mirror to show him he’s no longer the hotshot

quarterback he was before the war. He knows he’s ugly—inside and out. He’ll do

anything to stay in self-imposed exile, even accept his father’s ultimatum that Paul

tolerate the newest caretaker for three months or lose his inheritance. But Paul

doesn’t count on the beautiful twenty-two-year-old who makes him long for things

that he can never have. And the more she slips past his defenses, the more keeping

his distance is impossible.



Now Paul and Olivia have to decide: Will they help each other heal? Or are they

forever broken?



** Teaser Reveal!**

Olivia squirms. "Why are you looking at me like that?"

"I've never known a female to acquiesce that easily without a

catch. How about you hit me with it now and get it over with?”

Olivia shrugs. "Fine. I was going to say that I won't run alone, if you

promise to go with me."

"No," I say, almost before she's finished her sentence.

"Why not?"

I rap my cane once against the ground. "Well, for starters, despite

the fact that there are tortoises that could surpass your sorry excuse for a

jog, I'm in no shape to accompany even the most pathetic of runners."

"What a handy skill you have of overloading a sentence with

insults," she says as she reaches up to adjust her ponytail. "That must be

helpful what with your thriving social life and all."

I thump my cane against the ground again, studying her. "Must be

nice, picking on the cripple."

Olivia rolls her eyes. "Please. Your soul's more crippled than your

leg."

She has no idea how right she is, and I have no intention of letting her

anywhere close enough to find out. I've gotten good at shutting people out

by pushing them away . . . being as nasty as possible until they reach their

breaking point. But with her? It's different.

We hope you enjoyed this sneak peek of BROKEN by Lauren Layne! Love everything
