Synopsis:
Zane Tishler has never been the
All-American picture of happiness. Every time he seems to get his feet under
him, someone or something has to rip away his chances at healing. His
girlfriend and son are missing after a devastating fire that left the home they
shared in ruins, along with his life. How long can someone cling to hope
without the two most important people in their life?
Liliosa Cortez has always been a runner. It’s how she’s survived for as long as
she has. But, there comes a point when you just can’t run anymore. Lost in a
world darker than she ever could’ve imagined, she has to figure out how to live
with the choices she’s made — in her past and now. She has to act fast if she’s
going to save the people she loves. That’s what matters. Even more than her own
life.
Zane and Lili were finally finding their very own happily ever after when
tragedy struck. What happened the day of the fire? Where are Lili and Conner?
How can Zane and their family deal with this deep of a loss?
What happens when your world is turned upside down and guilt eats at you during
every waking moment?
What do you do when all hope fades and leaves you Silently Broken?

Excerpt from Silently
Broken:
I hadn’t realized Zane
was finished until he set
the cup in front of me. He followed my line of sight as I looked away from the
chair he’d been sitting in about six months ago when he held me as I cried. I
closed my eyes, pushing that thought away. That girl was broken. She was damaged. That wasn’t me. Not
anymore.
“Lili,” he whispered, and I
cringed.
“Don’t call me that,” I said
automatically, letting out my breath in a rush as the realization of what I’d
said struck me. I opened my eyes, grabbing the mug. “Sorry.”
“What do you mean?” he finally
asked as I sipped on the hot
liquid
slowly. It burned on the way down but I ignored it, needing the excuse not to
answer that question.
“Just an automatic response. I’m
fine,” I answered, blowing off what was happening.
“Would you stop fucking saying
that?” he snapped, causing me to jump a little. Startled, I kept my eyes on the
mug but neither of us moved as we waited for the other to take the next step.
Finally, I lowered the glass to the table.
“What would you like me to say?
Hmm?” I knew I should stop, walk away now and not make this worse, but I no
longer cared. “You want to know why I told you not to call me that?” I looked
up, meeting his eyes. “Because I’m. Not. Fucking. Her. I’m not that girl.”
“Yes, you are—” he started, but
I cut in before he could finish.
“No.” I laughed, but the sound
was hollow. “No, I’m not. You see this face and you think I’m her, but I’m not.
You’d be closer to the truth if you called Kaitlyn by that name.”
He flinched back from the name
and I waivered, the part of me still able to feel guilt worming her way back in
as I watched his expression.

About Maegan Abel:
Maegan despises writing about herself in the third person. She also
hates touting her accomplishments like she thinks she’s really done anything
special…
Now that we got that out of the way, I’ll tell you what you need to
know. I was born and raised in Tulsa, Oklahoma. I went back to school in my
late twenties and studied Stage Production Technology. I now work full-time in
the alterations shop of a major department store and part-time backstage in the
various theatres around the area.
I’ve been an avid reader from a very young age and the top goal on my
list of things to accomplish in my life was to write and publish a book. During
the summer of 2013, while working backstage on The Lion King, I read eleven
books in four weeks. I read my first New Adult book and was introduced to a
genre I felt I could totally relate to. The idea for Perfectly Broken and the
character of Lili was born backstage during that time.
