Shattered Quotes

“I can’t believe I thought he was harmless. It was so obvious to everyone else around me, but I chose to turn a blind eye to what was staring me right in the face.”
― S. Nelson, Shattered

“Falling for Alek Devera was a blessing and a curse. He’d made me trust in someone again, crushing the walls I’d built up to protect myself, making me feel alive again after so many years of simply drifting through life. He forced his way into my world, and I was powerless to stop him.”
― S. Nelson, Shattered

“I once dreamed of a life where my happily ever after was waiting for me. Waiting for me to grab on with both hands and hold tight. All of the romance novels I’d ever read bragged such things, tempted me with a reality which simply didn’t exist. Not for me, at least. My whole world had been turned upside-down in the blink of an eye. I racked my brain to try and figure out what I’d done to deserve Fate’s cruel hand, but I’d come up blank. I was a good person. I didn’t deserve to be thrown to the wolves. Knowing there were many other people who had worse problems than me, I did my best to summon the strength needed to push through each and every day. I was alive. I was healthy. I had good friends.”
