After uncovering devastating secrets about her origins, Grace-Anne Colby is abducted, then forced to honor her marriage by a man she trusted to protect her. Life as the wife of a mafia don presents its challenges, but none more harrowing than the one given by her unwanted husband: Create life...or lose her own.

The second in the This Thing of Ours series, Shattered Glass: The Gilded Cage continues the 1930's story of love and hate, truth and betrayal, where the meaning of family runs deeper than blood, and sometimes involves none.

This series contains themes of mafia violence, abuse, sexual assault, prostitution, human trafficking, period depictions of sensitive medical procedures, and murder. Many outdated customs and conventions of the 1930’s often removed from novels to reflect contemporary views are instead presented in this series. Reader discretion is advised.
