Reviews for Shattered

[serenayates · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

This is such a great story. It isn't warm and fuzzy, and it's not about love in the sense many m/m romances talk about it. But man, it sure pulls a punch.

Dae lives in a post apocalyptic world of cruelty and survival of the strongest. He suffers enormous humiliation and torture so his sister will be safe. He thinks he's a coward, but the inner strength he needs to get through several ordeals is more than I can imagine.

Coby seems to be one of the tough gang leaders at first. But there is an undeniable streak of warmth in him as he gets to know Dae, then starts to protect him.

The two together manage to create a small island of hope and care between them. It gives Dae the courage to finally stand up to his tormentor. This isn't a 'fluffy love story', but one of great power that I won't quickly forget.
