Broken Barriers by Meredith Nicholson audiobook.

Genre: romance

When college junior Grace Durland is abruptly summoned home to Indianapolis, she expects a temporary family setback. Instead, she finds the Durlands shaken by financial ruin and simmering tensions: her proud father has been pushed out of the business he helped build, her brother Roy is protected and indulged, and Grace is told to trade campus freedom for duty and practicality. Refusing to be reduced to a household problem to be managed, Grace steps into unfamiliar territory - paid work, public scrutiny, and the hard arithmetic of respectability. Then an unexpected connection with Ward Trenton, a charming man whose life is already entangled by marriage and social obligations, draws Grace toward a love that promises escape and threatens disgrace. As whispers spread and loyalties fracture, Grace must decide what she owes her family, what she owes herself, and whether a young woman can claim independence without paying an unbearable price. A story of ambition, reputation, and desire in a changing America, Broken Barriers explores the personal costs of breaking rules that were never meant to bend.
