Broke - Softcover
What would you do to protect your own?
Amy only wants a happy family - instead, she's in a nightmare of pain.
Her marriage to Mark isn't the best - he can't hold down a job, he's got a bit of a temper. But she doesn't want to know just how bad things are until his gambling habit brings Lenny Yates to her door. He makes it brutally clear how she can pay off Mark's debts.
But Amy's troubles are only beginning. Now there's another woman in Mark's life, who wants Mark for herself. She is ready to steal Amy's man, her self-respect and even her children.
As the stakes rise, Amy will either lose everything, or she'll have to learn how to stand up to her enemies . . .
