Ezra Reid has learned to live with limits. At seventeen, every step is a battle with a body that won't cooperate, every movement a reminder of an undiagnosed condition that keeps him on the margins of ordinary life. He's accepted his reality?until the dreams begin.
Night after night, Ezra runs. Not the halting shuffle his body allows, but true running?swift, effortless, alive. The sensation lingers even after he wakes, leaving him restless, haunted, and hungry for something he can't explain.
Then comes the Voice.
You were made to run.
Three words that refuse to fade. Three words that spark defiance against everything he's been told is impossible. Ezra begins to push himself beyond reason, beyond caution, chasing a freedom that feels both dangerous and destined.
What follows is a journey of bruising setbacks and startling breakthroughs, of humiliation that cuts deep and moments of wonder that defy explanation. Each attempt leaves him with more questions than answers. Why him? Why now? And why does a stranger seem to know more about Ezra's future than Ezra himself?
As the boundaries between faith, science, and the unexplainable blur, Ezra faces a choice: cling to the safety of limitation, or surrender to a calling that demands everything. The path ahead promises risk, revelation, and a destiny far larger than high school track meets.
BROKEN SPEED: The Awakening is a powerful story of resilience, mystery, and the discovery that sometimes strength is hidden in the very places we feel most broken. Perfect for readers drawn to tales of impossible odds, supernatural hints, and characters who refuse to let circumstance define their destiny.
The race is only the beginning. The real journey starts when you stop running from who you are?and start running toward it.
