Description
Damaged, a gritty and raw urban thriller that will grab you from the very first page, takes contemporary urban fiction to the next level. Mita “Sweet Lips” Cruz never had much chance to enjoy her youth because of her drug-addicted mother’s attraction to low-life men. After she survives a vicious assault at the hands of her stepfather on her fourteenth birthday, Mita desperately searches for the meaning of unconditional love in the streets of North Philadelphia. When she discovers that she is carrying the child of her rapist, it’s too much for her damaged soul to bear. With an ugly future ahead of her, her mother adds to her grief by taking and putting Mita’s newborn up for adoption. Mita vows to seek revenge for the violations against her. FBI Special Agent Jasmine Rodriguez is a rising star—a young FBI agent specializing in running sting operations from corruption to child pornography. But no matter how successful she is in her professional life, she can’t run from her shady past. So when she crosses paths with Mita, hidden agendas are revealed, and Jasmine’s life changes drastically.
