Welcome, readers! I hope you are enjoying the Beautiful Broken blog tour. Below you will find the book blurb, a character snapshot, and a fabulous giveaway!
From the publisher:
She's been broken by her past. He's
been breaking for as long as he can remember.
Together, they can make each other
whole--or destroy each other.
When his best friend asks for
something, Dane rarely says no. But babysitting a newly sober Scout Grimes for
three weeks isn't exactly a normal request. And with their history, it's a
recipe for disaster. Not to mention, she's drop dead gorgeous and he can't
touch her.
There are few people Scout trusts as
much as Dane Guillot. He's always been her safe place, where nothing can hurt
her. He's also been the only man she's never let herself want--screwing up
their friendship isn't worth one amazing night together.
They have too much history, and too
much personal baggage to ever work. But if they are willing to take a chance on
love--it might be worth the risk.

Nazarea Andrews is kindly letting readers in on a sneak peek at Scout, the heroine in Beautiful Broken. Here is a page out of Scout's journal. Enjoy!
Why am I here? It’s hard being in rehab. More so because I
know he means it—Dane doesn’t make idle threats and if I don’t take this
serious and at least try, he’ll walk away. That terrifies me. Dane has been my
stability, my touchstone since we were kids.
Atticus is a good brother. He takes care of me, makes sure I
get a good apartment and a decent boyfriend, makes sure I come home or major
holidays and my bank account stays in the black. But he’s been wrapped up in
his own life for so long. It’s who he is—he pours everything into his work and
his relationships and if family phone calls fall to the wayside, it’s just what
happens. It was the same way growing up, when he got caught up in some history
book. Dane and I were used to it—we learned to entertain each other while we
waited for him.
Dane was attentive, almost annoyingly so. He was protective
and interested in who I spent time with. He helped me with papers and homework.
He even took me and Louisa shopping for homecoming in Baton Rouge, our freshman
year. He was patient—he never made me feel like a bother or ‘Atti’s kid
sister’.
I trust him. In all the years since the attack, Dane has
never judged or demanded explanation. He’s only ever been there to put me back
together when I land at his house. I won’t risk losing that. I won’t risk him
turning away from me—I think that would kill me.
You asked why I’m here. That’s it. I’m here because I’m
terrified of losing my best friend.
Makes me wonder what will happen in Beautiful Broken and if Scout will come close to losing her best friend. Thoughts?
