Broken Kindle Edition

4.6 out of 5 stars 449 ratings

Gwendolyn was 13 when her dad shattered her heart, leaving her broken. Her mother told her, "a daddy can break a girl’s heart before any man has a chance," and she was right. Through many failed relationships and giving herself to any man who showed interest, she knew she had to get herself together. So, she gave up on men.

Until Jacque.

He came into her life with promises to love, honor and cherish her; forsaking all others until death do they part. Twelve years later, he has made good on his promises until he didn’t. Now, Gwen finds herself spiraling out of control and it’s bad. What she didn’t realize, Jacque was more broken than she was and had demons of his own. With inward fighting and outward consequences, will Gwen and Jacque recover or are they broken beyond repair?

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

Lakisha Johnson, author of Christian Fiction writes from her heart.

Over the course of her career, she’s won the 2018 Drunken Druid Book of the Year Award for her book, The Forgotten Wife, 2019 Top Shelf Christian Fiction Book of the Year for Dear God: Hear my Prayer, 2020 Distinguished Authors Guild Award for her book, I’m Not Crazy and was a 2020 TopShelf Women’s Fiction Finalist for her book, When the Vows Break.

In addition to being a self-published author, she’s also a wife of 26 years, mother of 2, grandmother of 1, Pastor, Sr. Business Analyst, Devotional Blogger and more. She’s a college graduate with 2 Associate Degrees in IT and a Bachelor of Science in Bible.

 

Lakisha writes from the heart, and this is why she doesn’t take the credit for what God does. If you were to strip away everything, you’d see that Lakisha is simply a woman who boldly, unapologetically and gladly loves and works for God.

Ask her and she’ll tell you, ”It’s not just writing, its ministry.”

    This book dives into healing the past which may be hard to speak up about it. It’s shows how being honest and telling your truth is the road to healing. Although relationships were severed, people were restored and free!

    This piece of writing was remarkable and unbelievable at the same times. One could question how do a father hate his children so much to do them this way and turn from them. As I read this I kept asking myself that question. All things are possible as we can see. Ms. Johnson hats off to you for another off the chart book. This will be one. I'm sure I will at sometime or another re-read it was just that good.

    In releasing the hold of the past on the journey into their tomorrow...Gwen, Jacques and Gloria discovered the potter's creation, God's purpose on their life. I loved this🙏🏾

    This author is freaking amazing! The continous surprises had me not wanting to put it down. Jacque & Gloria are representations of the adults of today, broken. Their decisions as adults were directly related to their damaged childhood. Gloria though, she was a brave one. David & Georgia though, hell naw. David is the name my sperm donor, so yeah! Mark reminds me of my ex!
    Lakisha never disappoints! I love the motif of her novels: grace, mercy, restoration, brokenness, shattered mentally, etc. Shout to Pastor Reeves & Pastor Magnolia at High Point!

    Once I started to read the book I didn’t want to put it down. I had to see what was going to happen next. This was an excellent book.
  • Reviewed in the United States on April 26, 2019
    I am always so excited when I see Pastor Johnson has authored a new book. I will say I am a Christian but I am still a work in progress. I enjoy these books because in my opinion even if you aren't a Christian or are new to Christianity these books don't come off as preachy. This book talks about living in your truth, standing strong in your faith, forgiveness and redemption. I also love that she incorporates therapy and church. As a lot of black folks tend to believe we only need the church to solve our problems. Gwen, Jacque & Gloria went through so much and I feel like everyone knows a Gwen, Jacque or Gloria.

    Broken was awesome but you can be Broken in many ways. But you have to keep getting up and moving on. Death relationship family. I like in her books she talks about therapy because therapy is really important. Things that happen in your life is a reason and season.

    Enjoyed the storyline of vfb the book some areas seemed rushed while others I felt could have been more in depth.. Awaiting a possible sequel to see what the future holds for Gloria and Jaque after their continued therapy and healing...
