Showing Broken (Assumption Book 1) by Izzibella Beau

Assumptions Series follows the teens of Bayshore, Ayma, Colton, Tabby, Brady, Reagan, and Bentley.
Broken: Book One. A girl’s senior year in high school should be a special time. Ayma’s expectations are not very high. She is the daughter of a control-freak mother and a father who has been absent for the past three years. She is ridiculed by the popular kids in school because of her unfortunate name and the way she dresses. Although she’s nearly eighteen, her mother controls every aspect of her life, including what she wears, who her friends are and even what foods she is allowed to eat. The only bright spot in her life is her friend Tabby. Until she meets Colton.

Colton is unexpected. He’s gorgeous, popular – the guy all the girls want and the one all of the other guys want to be like. When he begins to pay attention to Ayma, she doesn’t know what to think. Things like this just don’t happen to girls like her. One obstacle after another is thrown into their path, but they can’t deny what they feel for one another. Their new-found love will be threatened by secrets from their past, challenges in their present and a future they can only dream about. Ayma struggles to find an identity apart from her mother’s controlling nature while Colton faces the results of an arrest that took place the summer before his tenth grade year. Can Ayma and Colton find love and happiness? Or will they be destroyed by events beyond their control?

Barely Breathing: Book Two. What will happen to friendships and love relationships when secrets are revealed? Finally, light is shed on the secrets of several characters we have grown to love from Broken. Each has their story to tell, and a past which can affect all of their futures. There is more drama and heated romance than a soap opera and as the storyline begins to unfold, you will be drawn in as you begin to either love or hate the students of Bayshore High.
Blinded By Betrayal: Book Three. Ayma and Colton have been through many challenges in their one year together. They’ve faced more obstacles since becoming a couple than most people will see in their entire lifetime. Can they overcome the ex-girlfriend factor, the introduction of Colton’s child from another woman, a new love interest, and the possibility of something being wrong with their own unborn baby? Their lives will never be the same after more lies are told and secrets are revealed. The one thing Ayma could never see coming is the heartbreak of being betrayed by the one who is supposed to love her the most. Will she be able to forgive the past in order to preserve their future? Can their love survive the biggest challenge of their young lives? Hearts will be broken, lives will be destroyed, but in the end they will discover that new beginnings come from another new beginning’s end.
Only Time Can Heal: Book Four. As Bentley and Lilith grow closer, it becomes apparent there are many obstacles to overcome before they can focus on a true relationship. Their age difference, her brother’s disliking him, a stalker, and the fact that he lives three thousand miles away are just a few things that stand in their way. The journey to find true love is a rollercoaster of emotion as they face the physical, mental, and emotional obstacles thrown in their path. Can time heal their wounds or will Bentley and Lil be forever damaged?
Love Hurts: Book Five. As Brady and Monique grow closer, they must contend with demons from their past. Can he move on or be forever blinded by the memory of Tabby? Will Brady want Monique when he discovers what she’s trying to hide? Will they let themselves be loved or will love always hurt?
