I don't know or care what a "fated mate" is—I want nothing to do with the vampire who's become a villain as vicious as the one I freed him from.Five years ago, answering an emergency call resulted in my abusive husband getting what was coming to him and me somehow rescuing a captive vampire. Despite Zeno's frail appearance, something about him called to me. I ignored our connection, helped reunite him with his family, and then returned to the human world like nothing had happened... moreI don't know or care what a "fated mate" is—I want nothing to do with the vampire who's become a villain as vicious as the one I freed him from.Five years ago, answering an emergency call resulted in my abusive husband getting what was coming to him and me somehow rescuing a captive vampire. Despite Zeno's frail appearance, something about him called to me. I ignored our connection, helped reunite him with his family, and then returned to the human world like nothing had happened.Zeno comes crashing back into my life looking lethally seductive and acting as second-in-command of a notorious criminal syndicate. On top of that, he's claiming I'm his fated mate—something that belongs to him.Disturbed by his deception and possessiveness, I reject him on the spot and storm away. The fanged fiend responds by pinning me in a puddle of blood to "taint my scent."I should despise the monster Zeno has become. Yet every look into his hardened amber eyes shows me echoes of the vulnerable man I saved—one desperate for retribution and his family's survival.When Zeno's family uncovers that he's hidden our connection all these years, the tensions between us become meaningless. Forced into a violent world, I discover that Zeno's secrets are darker than the inner workings of the vampire underworld.Bloody, Broken Fate is a standalone, dark, fated mates, vampire romance that ends with a happily ever after. It contains themes and subject matter that some may find disturbing. The Fated by Honor series is interconnected but can be read in any order. less
