Broken

Sometimes we pick our destiny, and sometimes our destiny picks us.

Joel Slater grew up learning to fight - not at school or in the streets, but at home. Against an abusive and alcoholic father that took out his own frustrations on his wife and only son. Fighting is all he's known since he was able to raise his own protective fists, and that knowledge is all he's left with when he's forced out of his house.

Amber Sinclair didn't expect to be working in a bar after college, but that's where she ended up and, for better or worse, her life was fairly simple and uncomplicated. Or it was, until she discovers some sort of street brawl happening in the alley next to her apartment.
