Publisher's Synopsis
Hello Readers, Please be advised that Claimed brings together characters from both Damaged and Forgotten. As such, Claimed will contain spoilers to both of those novels. Claimed (as with any novel in the series) can be read on its own, but I just wanted to give you a warning. I hope you enjoy this story as much as I do. Love, Graceli Kaye
On the heels of breaking free from a terrible relationship, Kaliana Martin is more than ready for a change. She has been planning to move away and go to college for far longer than she's admitted to anyone, but now that the day has come, she's conflicted. Unable to live under her sister's shadow and unwilling to continue to play the villain in a small-town tragedy, leaving Blues Meadow seems to be her only option if she's going to finally choose herself for once. Breaking free from her role as "that horrible Martin twin" is the only way to discover her true worth as an individual. Adopted before even leaving home, Kaliana is filled with the anxiety that her new friends are only interested in her for a role they want her to play. Sick of being forced into other people's expectations, she's determined to press forward and reinvent herself so that she can leave behind her mistakes, or at least that was the plan. However, it seems that everywhere she turns, there's another tie to Blues Meadow and yet another chance of her new life blowing up in her face. Will she ever be able to leave her past where it belongs? Despite having relationships (none of which his little sister has approved of), Joshua Trent has never truly been in love. His best friend once promised him that his turn would come-if he were patient enough. She even went as far as to describe the most amazing woman, but it's been two years, and she still hadn't appeared. Until now. Josh knows nothing about the new woman in their midst, other than knowing she was his from the moment he laid eyes on her. Too bad he's going to have his work cut out for him. Step one: convincing her that even though he fits her usual type, he's nothing like any of her exes. Step two: proving that he's the one guy who can give her the life she's always wanted-as well as the love and acceptance she's craved for her entire life. Unfortunately, his plan is destined to fail if she's not willing to let him love her as she deserves. ***This is the same story as before, simply an alternate cover. Original artwork is now within the pages with the scene that inspired it.
