Deeta Richards has never seen the outside world. Before she was born a banking crisis brought civilization to an end and now no one leaves the safety of the compounds unless they need to, but Deeta still dreams of seeing more than the building she was born in.
Tom is in the guard, this group are the only people that the tribal elders allow to leave the compound and Tom knows only too well that Deeta could never survive the harshness that exists outside. Then tragedy strikes and Deeta and her Sister Jan find themselves captured by a hostile tribe. Why does Tom know so much about these people? And why do they know so much about him? As this mystery draws to a climax, they discover that their friend Tom is not quite what he seems.....
REVIEWED BY: APRIL EPLEY
What a
wonderful story! I just loved it. Multiple POVs were awesome.
A banking
crisis brought civilization to an end. People live in compounds. The groups are
‘tribes’. So starts the story and background about how and why.
Deetina
Richards loves with all her heart. She cares for everyone! She is loyal and
fiercely so. I loved Deeta. When Deeta was still a small child, Uncle Jep
brought a young teen home. His name was Tomasz. He grew with the tribe and
headed up the guard. He also occasionally brought home orphaned little ones.
This landed Uncle Jep and Tom with 5 little ones of varying ages. Deeta gladly helped
with them all the time. Hence, all the children called her Auntie Deety.
When tragedy
strikes, Deeta and her sister Jan are taken prisoner by the Andrak Tribe. With
chaos happening all around secrets come out. Deeta and Jan end up in the middle
of political intrigue. Will their lives be spared? Where is Tom and can he save
them? Is the rest of their tribe safe? You will have to read this amazing story
to find out.
I am giving
this story 5 awesome stars. I loved it and am looking forward to starting the
next book by this author. I loved Ryder, Tom, and the rest of the characters. Well
except for Jimmy but you will have to read it to find out why. Toms
protectiveness and love amazes me. Do yourself a favor and check out this wonderful
story. No cliffhangers to worry about. Thank you.

Life isn’t turning out the way Deeta thought it would. With the Lewises defeated and peace between the tribes, she’d believed that the dark times were in the past.
However, troubles between the tribe continue and the Andak council has selected Tom as ambassador and chief spokesmen to the other tribes.
Deeta knows that there is still much resentment against the Andak, that Tom is in danger every time he leaves the safety of Andak city.
Struggling with her own her own complicated feelings against the tribe that she is now a part of, Deeta tries to ignore the changing attitudes growing within her.
Then Tom is betrayed and with the whole City thrown in to great danger, Deeta finds that reality can’t be ignored forever…

Hi everyone! My name is Dee Dee, I’m twenty six and I live in a beautiful part of Devon, England with my family. I have a younger sister, Amy who is a brilliant guitar player, some chickens, duck, geese, pheasants, a cat (that adopted us when we moved in!!!) and some Koi.
Broken City is actually my second novel. My first, as my Aunt so delicately put it, was crazy. In my defence I was only sixteen when I wrote it. On the plus side I learnt a lot (or so I hope) and two years later ‘Broken City’ was finished. Due to the support I have received from readers I have just finished the next book in the Broken City series, Broken Truce!
I have another book, ‘The Promise’, which is set in Saxon England is the beginning of a series. I’ve just begun to edit the next book and I’m really looking forward to releasing it. My third series is called The Chronicles of Discord. The first book, 'Fracture', is set in the distant future and tells the story of Astra, a young woman with a very big secret.
I have just finished the second book in the series and it’s currently awaiting editing. I really hope you enjoy reading my books as much as I enjoy writing them.
I love reading and have a kindle: I read almost anything with adventure and romance in it! I also like to cook and wear impractical high heels!!! And as you might have noticed I have a horrible addiction to exclamation marks!!!
