Picking Up The Pieces by Frey Ortega

I’m Noah Linkletter, and I’m broken.
Shattered, really—and I’ve been trying my best to ignore my problems by chasing temporary highs wherever I can find them. I put my makeup on and dance my way through a club, and by night’s end, I find a man who’s willing to indulge in a little act of sin to help me forget the demons in my own head.
It only takes one moment for my entire world to turn upside down. I’m left bloody and beaten, but even through the haze I meet him.
Farid Hassan.
A man who is strong and intimidating yet calm and patient. A man who wants me, despite my demons. A man so wonderful, he’s willing to help pick me up the pieces.
Maybe he’ll succeed.
