Description:

We’d both gone missing at one point, but Claire had one thing I didn’t. Someone to notice. So why was I the one still here and she the one still gone?

Nineteen year old Megan Smith has spent the past year working in a small town diner in the middle of nowhere. Life is quiet, simple, safe. Then comes the news that her look-a-like has gone missing.

Claire.

Still damaged both physically and mentally, Megan's not looking to be noticed. Wherever she goes from here, it's a road she needs to take alone. But when Nickolas Ellis takes the job as the new nightshift cook, it scares her how easily her defenses crumble down, down, down for him. But there are secrets she can't bear to share with just anyone, unspeakable acts that continue to haunt, and when the similarities of Claire’s abduction couples with the fear of an unwanted visitor in town, the urge to run before it all happens again intensifies, threatening the only happiness Megan's ever found.

New Adult Romantic Suspense / Dark Realistic Fiction
Recommended for 17+ for mature and disturbing situations, language and sexual content.

Author’s Favorite Quotes from Nearly Broken

By Devon Ashley

My all time favorite quote for Nearly Broken was said by Megan and has already been picked up and used by several bloggers (no surprise there really!): Please fill me with love, because I can’t bear to be filled with fear anymore. It’s suffocating me.

From Nick to Megan: I want to be with you forever, but we can’t move forward until you begin to heal yourself.

One of the biggest hurdles Megan needs to overcome has to do with something awful she did in desperation to escape her captor. That, coupled with the physical marks that still cling to her skin, she feels ugly both inside and out. “Ugly?” His grip on me lightened, but he still held me firmly in place. “Megan, you can tie your hair back, cover yourself head to toe with clothes that are too big and avoid wearing any type of makeup. But people are still going to notice you. Men are still going to want you. You’re the f***ing opposite of ugly. Everything about you is beautiful.”

“I’m sorry if this comes off rude, but I don’t give a sh** about your damn burns. I don’t care if you want to hide from the rest of the world, just don’t hide from me anymore.”

I think this one speaks for itself. :) I’d never been touched so gently before, like I was delicate and worthy of the time and attention it took to arouse me.

Thanks for stopping by the blog today and sharing some of your favorite quotes from the book Devon!

I’m a mom, wife, a lover and a fighter, coffee addict, wicked knitster, Microbiologist, baker of fine yummy treats, and someone who will fight you to death for that last twinkie bag of M&Ms during the zombie-apocalypse. Seriously, my addiction is that important to me. Oh yeah, and writing is cool too!
