Blurb
What started out as a deal quickly became a friendship that conquered monsters.
I killed, but I escaped hell.
Emotionless. Disconnected. Cold. A mannequin. It’s what I’d become in order to survive the years held in captivity. I was able to endure the abuse and devastating loss as long as I remained detached.
But he wouldn't let me.
Crisis, the bass guitarist in my brother’s rock band, Tear Asunder. He’s cocky, rude, a total man-whore. But the rock star has far more beneath the surface of his inked skin, and he’s determined to make me laugh again.
He made me a "deal", but really, it was blackmail.
His terms were simple. Until his playful honesty became the building blocks to something unexpected. Something strong enough to pull me from the eye of the storm.
Because even though I escaped years of abuse, it didn’t mean I was free.
Excerpt #1
Haven
I woke up to my phone buzzing on the nightstand. I rolled over and put the pillow over my head. My leg muscles ached from my run last night, having pushed myself farther and longer than usual. The wind had been strong, trying to unhinge me with each step. I refused to give in. I’d win this fight. I’d kill the monsters. I’d watch them bleed until they no longer lived inside me.
But they did. My last few episodes proved that.
Buzz.
I sighed and tossed the pillow aside.
“Pick up your phone,” Crisis called through the door.
Oh, my God. “What are you doing outside my door?”
“Pick up your phone and find out.” I heard a thump on my door.
I reached over and snagged my phone.
Move it, Ice. We’re taking out the big tractor.
I scrolled.
Don’t ignore me, baby.
Third text.
I made coffee.
Fourth.
Okay, maybe not yet, but I will.
Fifth.
I’ll just sit outside your door until you get your ass out here.
I glanced at the time on the screen. Nine. “It’s Sunday. I’m going back to sleep,” I called, then tossed my phone aside and rolled over, tucking the sheet under my chin.
The door burst open and quickly shut again. Crisis leaned against it, his lips pushed together with that familiar crease between his eyes. “Our brother is a fuckin’ Terminator. I swear he has radar in his head that goes off every time I talk to you.”
My eyes narrowed in on him; he was so full of crap. “Crisis. Get out.” My brother wasn’t—
A light knock sounded on the door. “Sis?”
Shit. I sat up, making certain to keep the sheets covering me because I was wearing a pink silk negligee with skimpy spaghetti straps and it barely covered my breasts. Kat had bought it for me when I first came to live with them, along with a drawer full of panties and bras. She said, ‘every girl deserved to have beautiful negligee next to her skin.’ At first, I balked, internally of course, wanting nothing to do with anything sexy. But after a few months feeling the soft silky material on my hands as I pushed them aside in my drawer . . . I tried one of them on.
I’d never had anything but cheap clothes, and the negligee felt nice against my skin. It made me feel . . . good about myself.
Crisis crossed his arms and I couldn’t stop from glancing at his tatted biceps. Then my gaze trailed down his hard muscled body to strong thighs clothed in worn jeans hanging low on his hips.
God, where was my head? It was too early in the morning and I was wavering under the sweet clenching between my legs and the whirl in my belly. He was a rock star, a hot rock star who was always on social media. Triple hard limit.
“Haven? I just saw your door close.”
I cleared my throat and gestured to Crisis to get away from the door before my brother barged in, saw him and jumped to conclusions. He pushed away and came straight for me, his eyes sparking a mischievous glow.
My brother knocked again. “We’re going to brunch today at Georgie and Deck’s. I’d really like you to come.”
Fine. Crisis wanted to play . . . he froze halfway toward the bed when I raised my brows and smiled. He shook his head back and forth and mouthed, “Don’t do it.”
“Yeah, come in,” I yelled.
Crisis dove for the bed, threw the duvet up in the air and landed flat on his stomach, the cover settling over him just as Ream strode in. I lay frozen beneath the covers, my heart racing, and a whoosh of blood charging through my veins. My breath hitched as warm heated air brushed across my bare thigh and goose bumps popped up along my skin.

Here we have the third book in this series and it is Haven's and Crisis' story.
Haven as we learned in book two is Ream's twin sister that he thought he had lost forever. Haven is emotionally damaged after events in her childhood, events so dark and twisted I wouldn't know how anyone would of survived.
Crisis is the playboy in the band and he is the biggest flirt and manwhore, but I think underneath it all as you get to know him, this isn't all he truly is.
Crisis takes it upon himself to befriend Haven, as he feels like he can truly help her face all her demons.
This book is really a dark, emotional, heartbreaking read. There are times where I wished I could reach in to the book and just hug Haven because of what she had been through.
Crisis is a man who knows what he wants and he goes the right way of getting what he wants.
I loved this story, Nashoda is a fantastic author who never disappoints. I cannot wait to see what Kai and Raven's book entails.

Shattered By You is the third book in Nashoda Rose's Tear Asunder series. You could read this as a standalone but I'd recommend reading the series in order. This is no different to her previous works as it takes you on a journey of epic proportions of anguish, pain and heartache to joy, love and passion; many times over.
Shattered By You is Haven Dedrick's story. We met her in Overwhelmed By You and she's Tear Asunder's guitarist Ream's twin sister. Her life has been filled with darkness and horror so terrible that it's a wonder she has survived. But within the darkness she has found courage, strength, perseverance, the price of her survival is that she suffers crippling flashbacks which she tries to hide from everyone. She doesn't allow anyone to get close to her, her cold demeanour is her defence against the torrent of emotions within that could explode any moment: guilt, shame and anger at her previous life without Ream. "I was a ticking time bomb, ticking slowly and steadily, waiting for another trigger to set me off." No one can know her secrets, no one can help her, she's best on her own or is she?
Crisis, guitarist and #1 player from Tear Asunder is the only one who can crack her defences. The cocky, flirtatious media whore tells things as they appear. He has no filter, keeps no secrets and never backs down from a challenge. He is a man that many people don't see the real version of: they see band member Crisis not the man behind closed doors. He opens up to Haven and I truly fell for Crisis in this book. He is fiercely protective and loyal to his family, caring and supportive, plus incredibly sexy and charming. He sees Haven as family but soon both their feeling change to something else....But when her past comes back to haunt her and threatens to destroy all that she loves will Crisis still be there offering his support or will he leave her shattering her heart forever and all alone again?
Out of the series so far this is a much more personal one and it's one story I've wanted all along. Haven's journey is an incredibly moving and emotional one, it covers issue which are truly dark and the twists which I did not see coming show how far people will go to seek their revenge. I can't recommend this book or any of Nashoda's books enough as they are just captivating, addictive and perfect.
