Behind the Broken

Rhett has spent years hunting down the human trafficking organization run by his own uncle, the man who forced him into becoming a weapon. Lying his way into a bodyguard position protecting Anastasia Kinsley, daughter of a presidential hopeful, was only ever supposed to be a means to an end — until Ana burns through the ice around his heart. When a trap set by the ring separates them, Rhett discovers too late that Ana has been sold at the very auction he came to stop.

Chloe C. Peñaranda opens the Behind Darkness duet with a dark, high-stakes romantic thriller about vengeance, trafficking, and a love neither character saw coming.
