Hayden Patterson has a simple rule.
And he's never broken it. Sleeping with a woman more than once simply isn't going to happen. He's always managed to hang onto his resolve, and so far, no woman's ever blasted her way through. It's one and done, with no prospect of ever having anything permanent. His childhood gave him that thinking and he has no plans to ever change.
Two women alone, and one of them is in more danger than anyone realizes.
It's hard being a teenager. Kacey Flournoy knows that all too well. Stuck in a school district full of snobby rich kids, she doesn't fit in on her single mom's salary. When she's cast as a bully, it only gets worse - especially since she's the one being bullied. And her poor mom, Delaina, doesn't know what to do. Since Kacey's dad died while serving in the military, it's all she can do to put food on the table.
When Hayden draws his first assignment through Citadel Security, he can't believe it. No way does he want to follow a poor little rich girl around all day to guard her from a bully. It doesn't take him long, however, to figure out that something's terribly wrong. And when he tries to right it, he meets the one woman who just might make him break his long-standing promise. That would mean he'd have to let go of the past, but he's sure he's not ready and he never will be.
A novella nestled between the first and second books in the first spinoff series from the Love Under Construction series, One Broken Promise takes the hunted to the hunter, the oppressor to the oppressed, and one very scared man to a place that will bring him to his knees. If you've ever been bullied, you'll feel the pain. But you'll also taste the joy of a promise broken.
WARNING: Strong, graphic sexual situations, a heinous criminal act against both an animal and a person by a seriously sick individual, and a suicide. For readers 18+ only.
Genre: Romantic Suspense
