Broken Beauty by Chloe Adams aka Lizzy FordPrint Length: 85 pagesPublisher: Evatopia Press (September 21, 2013)Sold by: Amazon Digital Services, Inc.**Contains graphic content involving the sensitive topic of rape and its aftermath. Not intended for teens under 18.**My Review~~~I received this book in exchange for an honest unbiased review.This is a heart-wreching read that is so emotionally hard especially with being such a sensitive topic as rape/assault. This is a book I would recommend to high schoolers due to the fact that it talks about rape with the assistants of a date rape drug. Also it talks about fake ID's and going to a party with older people that females often get hurt at. It is a wonderful novella. I can't wait to read what happens to Mia, Ari, and Dom in the next installment of the series. I hope her attacker gets justice. Mia and Ari are just too loveable not to like and their banter reminds me of me and my friend going shopping. Some of the issues that Mia faced in this book like freezing or passing out at seeing her attackers face or seeing her attackers everywhere even in her room is a true mentality which I experienced myself when I was assaulted (even though wasn't rape). I give this book a 5 star review in how amazing of a job the author did on such a delicate subject and that will still make you want to read more of Mia's story!Amazon Book Description~~~Sometimes bad things happen to beautiful people.When socialite party girl Mia Abbott-Renou wakes up in a garden she has little recall of the previous night -- except that she is naked...hurt...terrified. Not only has she been raped, but she knows one of her assailants: the son of a wealthy politician who happens to be her own father's political ally.Mia wants and needs justice. Except this privileged boy has an alibi and her father forbids her from going to the police. It's a critical election year, one that his party might lose if his image as a doting father is soured due to Mia being labeled a lush or worse, promiscuous.Devastated at not having the support of her family, Mia finds herself in a tug-of-war with her conscience over what to do, especially since she can't remember exactly what happened that night. Worse, the men who attacked her have hurt several other girls, and Mia may be the key to stopping them.Mia tries to forget, until the unthinkable happens, and she's left reeling once again until she realizes that her strength will bring healing and unlocking her memories will bring justice.
