Broken Vows by Brooke Burton
From the author of Broken Dreams, a sweet-but-hot romantic suspense that’ll make you weep. He promised her he’d find her, no matter what. Four years later, he finally does, but he’s broken beyond repair. Will she convince him that their love can conquer all?
Rebecca grew up with the gorgeous Asa Burnes in their isolated religious commune. Falling in love and carrying his child, Rebecca knew he was her forever. But as the pair were planning to marry, the commune’s new minister decided that she would marry Asa’s brother instead. Desperate to be together, Asa helps her flee the commune . . . but the price of her freedom is his imprisonment in the commune’s brutal labor camp.
In their last moments together, Asa promised her that he would come to her. That they would be together again.
Four years later, Rebecca has a new life with a job she loves at a local flower shop, great friends, and a safe place to call home. To remain free, she’s had to cut all ties to her past. Yet, not a day goes by that she doesn’t think of the man she loves and what he did so that she could be free.
One evening, as Rebecca is making deliveries to the hospital, she stumbles onto a patient’s room and sees an injured Asa.
For four long years, Asa has fought every day for survival. The only two things that have kept him going are the thought of his one true love and the child they gave up for adoption. Now that he’s found her again, all he wants is to return to the way things were before. But years in a hellish labor camp have left him with demons he can’t shake, and he questions whether he’s still the right man for her. The only way for her to live untainted by his past might be to say goodbye for a second time.
Yet he cannot deny the flame that still burns brightly between them, and it quickly becomes something they can’t resist.
Can Rebecca convince him that they can still have a happily ever after? Can Asa move on from his past for her? And as Father Gideon closes in, can the pair find a way to escape…and find the happiness they’ve been denied for so long?
Broken Vows, Book 3 in the Broken Hearts of Harbor’s Head Series, contains subject matter which may be considered sensitive or triggering to some, including PTSD, suicide, and teenage pregnancy. Discretion is advised. This is one of a series of interconnected standalone novels.

Brooke is a tortured artist who began writing plays in the 3rd grade. After losing her muse as a teen, she struggled for years to write, but what came out on paper never aligned with what was in her heart. Finally, after being inspired by some old friends, her writing came to fruition which became her first published novel, Desperate Times, Second Chances.
Inspired by strong women who have a driven purpose and very little tolerance for bull, she enjoys exploring equality in relationships with broken characters who clearly have made past mistakes. Don't we all?
What inspired you to write your book?
Lauren was a side character in book 1 of the series, Broken Dreams.
Here is a short sample from the book:
A hard knock came upon the old wooden door, causing Rebecca’s head to whip up in terror.
Oh God, they were here.
She squeezed her eyes shut and prayed harder than she had ever prayed before in her life. She knew what was coming; the marriage, the restrictions, and the intimacy that would be inflicted on her that night by her husband. She began to cry again, trembling in fear and praying to God to send her an angel.
“Rebecca!” A terse whisper came from the other side of the door.
She stilled. “Asa?” She whispered in recognition. Clamoring to her feet, she ran to the door she was not permitted to open and yanked it wide.
Asa barreled through, scooping her up in his arms and off her feet. She flung her arms around him, burying her face in his shoulder and crying harder than ever before. “We have to go,” he said, lowering her down and pulling her arms from him. “Can you run?”
Rebecca nodded as Asa took her hand and peeked out the door. Together, they ran with all their might.
