Two decades after divorce, high school sweethearts come together to learn how it all went wrong in the sweeping, romantic women's fiction saga, When We're Broken. How many years apart are too many for a first-and only-love? Catherine didn't just lose her father at sixteen: She lost everything. From her mother refusing to grieve, her brother distancing himself in all the worst ways, and her best friend abandoning her in her time of need, to becoming a social outcast amongst her peers-Catherine was buried beneath the rubble of her own life. Meeting Glen-the arrogant, attention-seeking new kid from Chicago-was just the thing she didn't need, until he befriended her brother, and she was left wondering...what if? From a whirlwind teenage romance to their escape into young newlywed bliss, neither foresaw how the impacts of trauma they didn't understand would lead to decades of longing: for each other, for the lives they were meant to lead, and for the people they were meant to be. A southern, multi-generational story of love, loss, and life that asks: What happens when two people who can't be together-but also can't be apart-find each other one last time, after their scars are healed? When We're Broken is the second novel in the Women of Asher series, following Shawna Holly's debut novel, The Stories We Keep.
