Special Color Interior Edition From USA Today Bestselling Author Layla Frost comes a twisty age-gap romance about finding exactly what your depraved heart needs… Surviving negligent parents and childhood cancer didn’t make me stronger. It sure as hell didn’t make me a fighter. It left me effed up. A hot mess. Haunted. But he didn’t think so. Alexander Thornton was a tech genius. Philanthropist. Charmingly sweet and devastatingly handsome. And—for some insane reason—he was into me. He thought my imperfectness was what made me perfect. He loved my flaws. My quirks. My scars. He saw me at my worst and loved me damaged . Which made me wonder… Was he damaged, too? Warning: Recommended for readers 18+. This beautifully damaged romance deals with seriously heavy topics, such as depression, anxiety, violence, and self-harm. Be advised. And be mindful and kind to your own mental health.
