Lovely Broken Strength (Cypress Falls #2)

Ellie Liles was raised in a world of backstabbers and shallow beauty. She learned quickly the best way to survive is to trust no one. She lived by that rule, except for when it came to her best friend, the person who always swore to protect her. Until the day he leaves town without a word and shatters the last piece of hope Ellie has.

Tyson Ranes left everything he loved to seek a life where he felt invincible. When he loses the most important fight of his career, his whole future is suddenly unknown. His injuries force him back to his small town and the people he turned his back on. Yet the person he misses the most—who he once considered his best friend—wants nothing to do with him.

Ellie and Ty are at each other’s throats as they try to rebuild a friendship seemingly beyond repair. The closer Ty gets, the harder Ellie pulls away. Then strange things start happening, incidents she can’t explain, and Ellie discovers the consequences of loving Tyson Ranes may be more dire than just a broken heart.
