Hello all of you wonderful people you! I am pleased to bring to you this amazing work in progress. She is still working out the kinks with the cover but who needs it when you've got an exclusive excerpt!
So please sit back and enjoy Damaged!
Damaged by Becca Vincenza
There are some beings in this world, long thought to be extinct. Some seek to protect them, others want control, but some . . . some are hell bent on their destruction.
Audrey was taken from her father, hidden away from the world, and tortured for five years. She was rescued, but is she really safe, or is there someone else waiting to betray her? Can she trust those who saved her? Can she learn to accept who she really is?
Stone was on a routine mission to extract valuable information from a rival clan of paranormals. Instead, he and his team find something much more valuable: a scarred, damaged young woman who holds many secrets, and whose power is beyond anything they could ever have imagined.There is much more to Audrey than meets the eye and Stone is determined to protect her.
Audrey and Stone are about to find out it’s hard to know who to trust.

An exclusive excerpt just for you!
It reached well below my knees but I
still felt exposed but it was the only thing I had been given that fit
properly. I looked up at Stone’s intake of a sharp breath. My eyes wide with
fear and I frantically looked to see what had caused his shock. There was
nothing else in the room but us, then when I looked at him his eyes were
roaming my form. The look made me feel uncomfortable but not in the way that I
expected. This was a different kind of uncomfortable, while other stares like
the one he was giving made me shrink in fear, his made me squirm with
embarrassment. That is how I felt as if I had something to hide.
“If it’s unpleasing I can change.” I
started to turn away but Stone grabbed me before I could get too far.
“No. Gods no. You look…amazing.” His
voice was almost breathless. He was standing so close, too close. And somehow
farther than I wanted him to be. I didn’t dare look past his chest which my
eyes were level at. His hands, Gods they were softest things I have ever felt
on my skin. I closed my eyes against the assault. I felt him lifting my chin,
but my entire body followed, I didn’t want to let his touch go. For once the
touch of another made me feel safe. I didn’t know why. “You should stand tall,
stop hiding.” His breathe feathering over the sensitive skin of my lids. I
couldn’t have kept my eyes open even if I tried. “Audrey.” His voice was so,
so, so close. I felt his hands move through my thick hair, the strands wrapping
around his fingers, knotting and refusing to let him go.
It's like.....
