Broken

Broken is the first book in Sadie Kincaid’s Manhattan Ruthless series, and its premise turns on a marriage of convenience between two people who are trying not to let the arrangement become anything more. Melanie Edison agrees to the match because her family’s financial position has been badly damaged, while Nathan James comes into the story carrying his own firm rule about never falling in love. That gives the book a clear setup from the start: a controlled, practical bargain that is almost certain to become emotionally messier than either of them intends.

Readers can expect a contemporary billionaire romance with a darker emotional edge than a light marriage-of-convenience story. The focus appears to be less on a broad external plot than on attraction, resistance, family pressure, and the fallout that comes when a relationship built as a transaction stops feeling like one. As the opening novel in the series, it is positioned as the start of a larger world, but its central conflict is intimate and character-driven.
