These Three Broken Words

Book One of the Twin Flame Duet

A gritty, low-spice contemporary romance.


Miranda has spent her life being dragged from town to town by her mother’s search for true love. She wants stability, belonging, and a life that does not look anything like the one she came from.

Emerson is the son of a dead championship boxer, carrying a vow no kid should have had to make. He is determined to protect everyone around him, even if it means burying every selfish want of his own.

When Miranda and Emerson collide, they bring out the worst in each other first: sharp words, bad tempers, old wounds, and a kind of recognition neither of them is ready for. But as their connection deepens, so do the consequences of the promises they made to survive.
