The driver of the truck died and then his identity is revealed: Remington Harcourt who, the previous year while still a councilman, had launched a vendetta against the sex industry, including the Den. The Den is an exclusive BDSM club; Noah and V think the accident was more another attack.

Noah and Liv had flirted during the evening, but Noah still has not recovered from the suicide of his girlfriend and submissive 4 years ago and he is not looking for any kind of relationship. As for Liv, she considers herself out of his league, he's a lawyer and she's poor; furthermore she has no idea what kind of club the Den is.

SHATTERED BONDS is book seven of the Wicked Play series, and Ms. Aicher is such a fantastic writer that, even though I had not read the first six books, after the first chapter I was completely absorbed by the gripping story, the wonderful characters and their lives. It was not at all what I expected: SHATTERED BONDS is a book about tolerance, acceptance of self and others, healing, friendship, and love; it's about sex inasmuch as sexuality is a part of being human. It's a wondrous journey accompanying Liv and Noah, as well as their friends, as they all re-evaluate their priorities.

SHATTERED BONDS is definitely one of the best books I have read this year: a supremely interesting story, tremendously well written, fascinating characters, and the sex scenes are sensual, authentic, and moving; words fail me. I very highly recommend it, whether to readers of Erotica or not; it's an exceptional book! I have only one regret: it's not having read the six previous instalments.
