Beauty in the Broken: A Diamond Magnate Novel

Written by Charmaine Pauls

Narrated by Adara Stevens and Lee Turner smith

A Dark Forced Marriage Romance

Six years ago, Harold Dalton framed me for theft and sent me to jail to steal my diamond discovery. He gave his daughter to Jack Clarke in exchange for the excavation rights. Today, I’m walking free, and I’m coming for him with a vengeance. Six years of cruelty make beasts out of men. I’m going to take back what he stole from me, and more. I’m not interested in his properties or shares. I don’t want his small change. I want his biggest asset. Beautiful, mentally unstable, Angelina Dalton-Clarke.

Worth billions, she’s the wealthiest widow in the country, and also the craziest. Her self-harming tendencies had Jack declare her incompetent before he put a gun to his head and blew out his brains. Lina isn’t allowed to touch a cent of her riches. Her father manages her finances. He has all the signing power. As her husband, that chore will fall to me. But if she thinks I only want her for her money, she’s sadly mistaken.

[Jamie Koepplinger · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

Wow! This blew me away. It truly has a bit of everything. Both of the main characters are so broken and all that they go through was just heartbreaking. But I thought the author did a fantastic job of weaving the story in a way that felt so real and relatable. I loved Lina and her strength...watching her show just how amazing she was so inspiring. And the ending was everything I hoped it would be. Loved this book so much!! I will be getting anything and everything by Charmaine Pauls...I am hooked! Audiobook was wonderful!
