Synopsis
This cruel king won’t stop until he makes a queen of me. Dutch Cross is rich, powerful, and possessive. I gave him too much of me and now it’s too late to run. Yet it’s what I do. Far, far from the villain of the story. But the thing about villains is… They always drag you back to the dark. And when a secret that should have stayed buried rises from the grave, I have no choice but to join hands with the enemy. Lust. Desire. Deception. The very boy who destroyed me is now my only salvation. There are more beasts at Redwood than I can count. But I didn’t fight my way into this elite world just to leave with nothing. I’ve been broken into something stronger and I have Redwood’s cruel prince in the palm of my hand. They think I’m weak and powerless? Fine. I’ll bend all the monsters to my will and show Redwood what a queen looks like. *** The Broken Note is a one-couple romance between a cruel prince and a gifted musical prodigy. Also note, this is the last book for this couple. If you’re looking for an extreme enemies-to lovers, unapologetic alpha hero, high school rockstar romance, this is the book for you. XOXO - Nelia
