SHATTERED by Sharon M. Johnston
SHATTERED: An Open Heart Novel Book 2
Healing a battered heart will risk her last link to humanity
Mishca needs to save her sisters, but only Ryder can save her.
The truth about Mishca’s past shattered her heart. She deals with the pain by focusing on a new mission: saving her newfound family from their creator. With her sisters scheduled for termination, Mishca and her friends set out on a journey up the North Queensland Coast to save them before someone else dies.
Ryder understands the need driving Mischa. It’s in her DNA. But he’s not giving up on the chance they can still be together. She’s the only one to have seen him levitate. The only one to watch the sparks dance across his skin. The only one he trusts enough to know what is in his heart. And now, he might be the only one who can stop Mishca from losing her humanity.
Driven apart by secrets, will they come together in time?

In preparation for the release of SHATTERED: An Open Heart Novel Book 2, you can grab DIVIDED: An Open Heart Novel Book 1 for only 99c!
A new heart should mean new life, instead it’s a living nightmare.
Mishca Richardson’s life is at an all-time high after her heart transplant. With new boyfriend, Ryder, she has the perfect summer romance. Even the nightmares plaguing her sleep since her operation can’t dull her new dream world.
Yet, life starts to unravel when Mishca develops superhuman abilities. She does her best to hide them so as not to end up a science experiment in a lab, but she can’t ignore the strange instant attraction she experiences when she meets her university professor, Colin Read.
Torn between love and obsession, Mishca must unite her divided heart and decide between the two men. But when the truth about her weird powers comes to light, she’ll have a lot more to worry about than romance.

Excerpt :
I sunk into the water, and let the
suds and scent of lavender engulf me.
The stress of the day finally began to melt away.
My body jolted.
I was in the middle of the desert. There were grass
huts and women with hajjis walking quickly around me. Something whizzed past my
ear, and a deafening explosion rocked me off my feet. I instinctively curled my
body in a fetal position.
I listened for the screams to start, but it
was eerily silent. I glanced around, but all I saw was water.
I was still in the bath. What had
just happened? Was that a vision? Had I fallen asleep?
My headache was a dull thud now.
A knock on the washroom door made me
gasp. I sat upright in the tub and heard my roommate, Amber, call in, “Mary,
are you okay?”
“Yeah, I’m good. Just must have fallen
asleep.”
“Hey, Amber, what time is it?” I
looked down at my pruney fingers and wondered how long I was in the tub.
Amber said, “It’s five thirty.”
I leaned forward and turned on the
hot water. The bath water had gotten cold while I had drifted off.
I leaned back as the warm water ran
over my toes and closed my eyes, wondering what I should wear tonight. I wanted
to look beautiful for Joe. I began to picture every outfit in my closet, and
tried to imagine his reaction to it.
A shiver ran down my back and I
faintly hear the water splash over the edge.
I opened my eyes and tried to
scream. All that came out was a reverse gasp, and I pulled my towel in to cover
my body.
A small child was in the tub with
me. He couldn’t be older than five. Blood was running down his face, and his
body was covered in sand mixed with congealing blood. He was clinging to my
towel, and I didn’t know whether to let go of it or yank it back from him. His
dark hair was wet with fresh blood. My heart filled with sadness and I quit
trying to scream.
As I clung to my own towel, I didn’t
know what was happening or what I should do.
The little boy raised his head and more
sadness poured into my heart. His eyes were dark pools of grief and despair.
They pleaded with me, begging me to help.
How? I
mouthed silently.
I jumped when he began to move
slowly toward me. He lifted one arm and spoke in a language I didn’t recognize.
I knew I didn’t know exactly what his words meant, but I knew what he was
saying: He was hurt and needed help.
The closer he came, the more my fear
eased and the pain increased. He reached for my arm. His hand was bloodied, and
it sent a jolt of electricity and agony throughout my body. I tried to pull
away, but his grip was locked on my arm. His eyes turned black and murky, and a
voice not his own spoke.
“Princess, help my people,” it said.
I shook my head.
“Let go!” I tried to scream again.
The little boy disappeared, and I
jumped out of the bathtub, wet towel still wrapped around my body, and crumbled
to the floor. The blood was smeared all around me, and I looked at my arm. The
blood was still there, too.
I whimpered, scrubbed at my arm
until it was raw, and yet I could still see the blood.

Bio:
N. N. Light is the husband-wife writing team,
commonly known as Mr. N and Mrs. N. Mrs. N. has been creating stories ever
since she was little. Her grandfather remembers when she was two years old, she
would stand at the top of the stairs and tell him a story filled with emotion
(and in a language foreign to him) with her hands on her hips. Let’s just say
she was a born storyteller.
They’re blissfully happy and love all things
chocolate, books, music, movies, art, sports, trains, history, cooking and
baking. Their mantra is to spread the Light.
Most of the time you can find them on Twitter or
getting new ideas on how to spread the Light on Pinterest. They’re a proud
member of ASMSG, Independent Author Network and Marketing for Romance Writers.
In addition to being authors, they’re also book
promoters/reviewers, social media marketers/influencers and the owners of N. N.
Light Author Promotions. They both love books, have ever since they were young.
Matching up books and readers is something that gives them great pleasure.
100% of the proceeds of Princess of the Light go directly to food banks (US and Canada) in
order to feed the hungry and help those in need. With only 7,500 books sold, N.
N. Light will be able to set up a monthly endowment for the local food bank.
