Blurb
He was supposed to protect me. Instead, he made me fear the dark.
He was supposed to love me. In the end, his love was
sickening, cruel and filled with malice.

Five years ago, the only bright lights in my world were extinguished.
One decision. One text. One sentence and my fragile life shattered.

I never expected the depravity and lies that greets me when
I return to Montecito, leaving me with one goal...
To flee and never look back.

Everything changes when three gorgeous guys crash into my life.
They’re determined to mark me as theirs, and make me
question everything I hold true.

But when the ghosts of my past and future collide, who will be left standing?
Me… or the monster who coveted me for all of the wrong reasons,
turning me into what I am today…

Tarnished.

*Tarnished is the first book in the Tainted by Ruin Trilogy and cannot be read as a standalone. It is a Dark High School Reverse Harem Romance that contains scenes that may be triggering to some. Including : sexual assault (minor), physical abuse & self harm. Recommended for readers 18+.

"Broken, yet fierce.
Hollow, yet resolute.
Fearful, yet brave.
Tarnished, yet resilient."

Y'all freaking broke me!!! Why can't my girl, India, have nice things for 0nce?!?!?!?



FROM THE BEGINNING, THIS HAS A LOT OF TRIGGERING TOPICS, PLEASE HEED THE WARNINGS

Indiana "India" Hendrix, has seen and been through so many horrors to last several lifetimes. She has not only suffered abuse from those who was supposed to care for her, but kept losing those who brought her light in this dark world. After being placed in a second foster home, she also deals with the struggles of being a senior in high school. When a ghost from her past appears, old feelings resurface and hiding her scars becomes more difficult to hide.

F******ck! Like I mentioned earlier, y'all broke me. I was literally wanting to cry this entire story. India has been through soooo much and I have to admit, I wouldn't have been as strong as she is. Right now, this doesn't feel much like a RH, but it's definitely building up to one. This is soooo good and really need to see if India can finally an HEA. She deserves it!!
