[Damaged Heroes 01] • Tall, Dark and Damaged

His Life Changed in a Heartbeat.

Disinherited as a teen, Devon Ashby returns home twelve years later as a ruthless CEO, brilliant at negotiating deals, but emotionally stunted. In an instant all he’s struggled to build implodes. Amid the turmoil of saving his company from a hostile takeover, his engagement to a business partner’s high-society daughter hits the rocks. Compounding his troubles, he encounters his high school sweetheart, whose heart he smashed. The vulnerability she awakens leaves him at greater risk than all the crises he faces.

Her Dream Job May Get Her Killed.

While restoring art in a billionaire’s private gallery, Hannah Moore is unwittingly drawn into the dysfunctional family’s confidences. When she discovers the rich developer behind her and her sick aunt’s eviction is the family’s black-sheep son—the lover she’s never gotten over—her desire turns to fury. Always one to avoid conflict, Hannah must stand up to Devon and the growing menace of someone who thinks she knows too much.

A Decades-Old Secret Turns Deadly.

When a family member is murdered, Devon and Hannah become ensnared in sibling greed, festering jealousy, and a tragic secret that’s divided the family. Amid their reigniting passion they race to expose the killer before they become the next victims in this cat-and-mouse game of survival.

### Review

* ***Tall, Dark and Damaged** kept me up wayyyy past my bedtime, and that was after I found myself so absorbed that I barely noticed horrible turbulence that left other passengers shaken during a particularly bad flight. I had to find out what would happen, and the surprises at the end were well worth my perseverance.** Smart Bitches, Trashy Books*** * * * *

* *****"...Although the build-up pretty much had me rocking back and forth in the fetal position, the ending was fantasmically awesome! It really plays out like a movie, with every scene described in such vivid detail that you could really picture everything playing out with absolute clarity. Another unique feather of this ending is that although it ends happily, it in no way ends perfectly." *Romance4theBeach****** * * ********Solid romantic suspense with strong characters and surprising plot twists.

How does that even happen with such a thick, juicy plot??"******* ************Leigh*****************
