Broken Hearts Pamela Miller

Natalie Jordan has everything her best friend Lisa Brown wants: money, good looks, and charisma. But despite their closeness, Natalie's sheltered and privileged life both appeals to and repulses Lisa, whose longtime jealousy and resentment are escalating into an obsessive, burning envy. Lisa finds herself using her intimate knowledge of Natalie's history and personality to manipulate the people and situations around them. Lisa's hard-edged maneuvering overwhelms Natalie, as does the possessive control exerted by Natalie's boyfriend Todd. Both Lisa and Todd dominate Natalie's life and influence her choices until her burgeoning love for another man, Stuart, gives her the motivation to break free. But Lisa draws on every opportunity to sideline Natalie and snare Stuart for herself. Consumed by her efforts, Lisa crosses a line that threatens to destroy multiple lives. Natalie must summon the courage to fight for her identity and independence or surrender her life and happiness to the woman who wants it for herself.
