<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br><p>The streets of Tarrin woke to a beautiful morn. Flowers for Fleur opened gifting the town colourful blooms and magical scents filled with love and light. But it was a lie. There was darkness within. The loved and the unlovable bound by blood.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>A dark secret ...</p><p>Yolande Lawrence-Harrison was hiding a dark secret. She'd returned to her hometown of Tarrin to help her ailing grandmother in <em>Flowers for Fleur</em>, where she had to put her engineering career aside to learn the science of flower art.</p><p>A note ...</p><p>As Yolande fussed with the pale pink roses in the basket of her grandmother's 1950s Raleigh Cruiser bicycle, she discovered a note. Yolande fumed at the pitiful manners and pure arrogance of the wording, and after numerous exchanges, she became irritated by the persistent, annoying, pig-headed, obstinate human being who wouldn't take no for an answer.</p><p>Beware ...</p><p>But when Alexander Parker walked into <em>Flowers for Fleur</em>, her thoughts scattered. However, she refused to inhale the luring potion he offered. She could see through his projected facade, where his perfection was a practised deceit. She wondered, if she could see through his pretence, could he see through hers? Could he see that she was damaged, hiding a past that ate<br /> away at her core, allowing the darkness to engulf what was left of her inner light. Could he see that she was the colour of broken?</p><p>Run ...</p><p>Yolande wanted to run. Away from the flowers. Away from Alexander Parker. But she couldn't. Her grandmother's life was fading as she battled the incurable Meniere's disease, and she needed to choose whether to fight her past or not, ultimately exposing her inner demons, in order to save her grandmother and herself from the same fate.</p><p> </p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>"I just finished reading The Color of Broken. I read it in two sittings (only stopping the first because of the onset of a migraine). It was beautiful, and powerful. I lost myself in it, and forgot that I was reading, which only happens with the very best of stories. As a fellow MD sufferer I truly appreciated Fleur's depiction of the illness, but it was Yolande and her PTSD which hooked me from beginning to end. I, too, suffer from anxiety and panic disorders, and your portrayal of Yolande's brokenness and fear was masterful. Thank you for this extraordinary experience!"</p><p><br></p><p>"Yolande and her PTSD struggles were compelling and had me hooked from the start."</p><p><br></p><p>"I would single this book out as one of my favorite books, ever!"</p><p><br></p><p>"I finished The Color of Broken. I was crying throughout. Very good." </p><p><br></p><p>"I loved my book, I've read it twice! It's now one of my most treasured possessions "</p><p><br></p><p>"I just finished The Color of Broken, and I just want to say congratulations on writing one of the best books I have read in a long time. I'm an avid reader so I've read a lot of books, and I could not put it down. I laughed, cried, loved all of the characters. A wonderful storyline, characters which you fall in love with, truly an incredible book - congratulations, you are very very talented x"</p><p><br></p><p>"This book will grab you from the first page.... it's incredible!"</p><br>
