Why these tropes fit

Broken Spirit is the first entry in Skye MacKinnon’s Defiance Series of dark contemporary reverse harem romances. It follows Laya, a woman enslaved and abused by her husband Andros, the leader of a secluded cult. Trapped in the compound with no hope of escape, Laya begins to suspect the three new cult recruits may be different from Andros’s other cruel followers when they arrive. As Andros prepares to carry out his most violent plan yet, Laya must decide whether to trust the three men to help her flee the compound, or if they will ultimately betray her to her abuser.
