Two hearts, two lives, one soul. Cursed in her mother’s womb, PeleKa’o walks a precarious path between life and death. Every full moon since her fourteenth birthday a ceremonial dagger ends her life, only for her to wake with the dawn, the curse unbroken. With half a soul, the living don’t want her… but neither do the dead. Each day that passes without breaking the curse weakens her. And if the curse isn’t broken by her twenty-seventh birthday, the twin suns that arrived with her birth will plummet to the ground, incinerating the world and everyone in it. Only unconditional love or true sacrifice will lift the spell. Or so the old hags who raised her keep saying. Usually right before they plunge that dagger through her chest. Trapped in a crumbling temple overflowing with suitors who fail to ignite the spark of true love, PeleKa’o despairs of ever breaking the curse that shattered her soul. Then, seventeen days before her twenty-seventh birthday, HE arrives. A foreign warrior with eyes like molten gold, Torben Thunder Bear ignites a flicker of hope in PeleKa’o’s guarded heart. A hope that maybe, just maybe the curse can be lifted. Until she realizes that he is her mortal enemy. As the sun races towards its final sunset, PeleKa’o must choose—embrace a love that may shatter the world, or let the suns fall, condemning them all to ashes. Broken is a fantasy adventure laced with humor and heartache, where love is a double-edged sword, and death is just a temporary inconvenience. Prepare yourself for a whirlwind tale that will leave you laughing, crying, and cheering for the half-souled heroine who just might save the world, one sarcastic quip at a time.
