Behind the Broken

Behind Darkness Duet 1 (War of Hearts)

By: Chloe C. Peñaranda

Narrated by: Jacci Prior, Teddy Hamilton

No one expects an angel to buy a ticket to hell. I would have lived my life the righteous way, but my path of vengeance forced me to become the monster my uncle wanted to create. When I lie my way into playing bodyguard for the senator’s daughter, I don’t expect our fires to cross or to become addicted to the blaze. Anastasia Kinsley burns the ice that froze my heart years ago, but I need to find the will to resist. Chained up in the devil’s playground, I won’t let myself lose again.

When the devil came I couldn’t resist. As the daughter of a hopeful new president, my life often doesn’t feel like my own. When my father assigns me a bodyguard during the run-up to the election, I’m determined to make sure they both see exactly why I don’t need their protection. But Rhett Kaiser is . . . unexpected. He ignites a match in me I didn’t know I held, and the closer we get, the more I’m drawn to use it to discover what lies behind his icy exterior.

The best yet!

I have found my new favorite dark contemproary romance. Rhett is my forever book boyfriend- sorry Ana.

No, but why are Rhett and Ana so perfect for each other? I could feel the tension and it tasted so sweet. I have zero notes. And that cliffhanger. Brutal. Need book 2 right now!


Audio Narration - Perfection! Loved the duet style with these two. A great pair!

Soooo good!

Of course Teddy always kills it but both narrators were fabulous and the story was so good!!! If you liked The First Daughter you’d love this story!!!
