He was finally home, but guilt weighed heavily on his soul.
She's been broken, running from a past she can't seem to escape.
Two childhood friends, beaten down by life, find their way back to each other after years of pain and torment. As passion and desire rises, can Jasmine and Angel find solace in each other’s arms? Or, are the shattered pieces of their lives too much for either of them to put back together?
Join them on an intoxicating ride through life. With ups and down, laughs and tears, they’ve survived for this long being broken. Can they survive it just a little longer to find their own happy ending?
Nicole Banks Bio:
My name is Nicole Banks. I was born Aug 4th (Hello my fellow Leo’s lol) I’ve lived in New York City all my life and I love it here. It’s not what it use to be but, it’s still pretty dope.
I love the warm weather and just being near the water. I think every problem can be solved with either yoga, tea or a quick nap. (Nothing is too big that those three things can’t solve)
I like animals way more then people, cats especially. I think they’re my kindred spirits. If I could I would have a sanctuary built just for them. (I’m probably going to be that crazy lady with ten cats when I’m wrinkled and grey).
I can survive off of pizza and pasta and I’m a coffee addict. I have so much caffeine in my system I can’t have coffee after a certain time or I’ll be up half the night lol.
While I’m a writer, music is my first love. Books are a second love of mine. I believe music heals your soul in ways nothing else can. I use music as my muse to write. I believe every song is just a story waiting to be told outside of the five minute mark.
I published my first book Shattered in 2013 and it’s the first book in my Shattered Hearts Series. The second book Into Pieces was published on June 30th 2015. I’m currently working on the next installment in the series.

Excerpt:
I remembered when it was time to get off, I couldn't move. I was shaken so badly. I was convinced my insides were still somewhere dangling in the clouds. Jay came running over. His excitement was clear. My brother was always the adrenal junkie. "That shit was awesome." He said. "What a rush. You know Jasy, it's pretty dope that you're down for this kind of stuff. You're not chicken shit, like Angel is." He laughed. "Don't get me wrong, he does stuff, but it's like pulling teeth with him. You? Tell you one time, no questions asked. You're down for whatever. That's pretty cool for a little sister."
I remembered he looked at Kris and Angel and suddenly appeared very serious. He took a long breath and turned to me all hint of humor and his carefree nature gone. "Jasy, always remember one thing, life is and will always be meant to be lived. Taste it, savor it, consume it and let it consume you. Get lost in it. Life is intoxicating if it's lived right. You should never be afraid of life. You should never hold anything back. There's entirely too much to explore and experience and taste and touch; and we're never given enough time to do it all. Jas, promise me whatever you do in your life, make sure you give it your all. Never let your fears get the best of you."
I put the picture down, my brother's words echoing in my brain and threatening the tears to start up again. Jay would be beyond pissed how my life turned out and how I responded to all the chaos in it. He would have demanded I fight to get my life back. He should still be here. I made too much of a mess of everything.
"That was a good day." I jumped, forgetting Angel was in the room.
"I didn't think you still had this picture, let alone have it up and in your room."
"It was in the living room for a long time. It's weird that it's in here and not Kris' room. Jas, why didn't you ever tell me? And no bullshit this time. We've always been able to talk, so we're going to talk now. How could you not come to me with this?"
I didn't want to talk. What else could I say? In truth, Angel should have known, I should have been able to tell him. But what else could he possibly need to know now? It wasn't like anything I could say would make him not look at me with disgust. I would probably just ruin everything.
