Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Florida

The lessee of a rental which I own has a signed lease agreement from 9/1/2014 to 8/31/2015. Recently I received an email from them saying they were leaving the property on 2/28/2015 ,which is 6 months before the lease expires. The lease was for one year and was signed by the lessee. What recourse do I have to collect the last six months of rent that is due based on the length of the lease?
