Audiobook
Shattered is a cleverly woven vampire tale. It's an erotic thriller with questionable morals. The story is a full-length novel, however, leaves the door open for more. It's the start of a series. Vampires live forever, but their humanity doesn't always shine through. The story tells the tale of two men. One bored with life the other wants things he cannot have. Being a vampire gives Soloman the illusion of everything he wants but the underlining truth is deadly. The problem is he's immortal and he has an eternity to get what he wants.
Drake doesn't know the meaning of living until he meets Ebony. To the outside world, it looks like he has everything a man should want but he's never experienced true love until he meets her.
This book is intended for the adult audience and contains a lot of sexual content. As this tale unfolds we see a tangled web which can only lead to more trouble.
It took me a while to get used to the narrator in this audiobook, but the story had some interesting twists. 3.5 stars out of 5. ARC received in exchange for an honest review. This book has a lot of descriptive detail.
