Publisher Comments:

Jessica shatters Zachary when she forces him to remember childhood sexual abuse. A drunk driver destroys Alyssa when he kills her slave/lover. Zachary and Alyssa work together to help each other heal, but their recovery could shatter Jessica's world. I.G. Frederick ... writes with authority and compassion about those who live within the lifestyle. Broken and Shattered explore issues including finding and initiating a submissive partner, informed consent and the difference between dominating someone and exploiting their needs. Elizabeth Coldwell, editor Forum magazine The sex never disappoints in I. G. Frederick's novels. Just like a great night in the dungeon, once the kinky action begins, it barely lets up. Frederick goes deep into SM fantasy and left me simultaneously satisfied and begging for more. Cecilia Tan, author of Edge Plays

The work of I.G. Frederick unfolds with the assured touch of a bestselling mainstream author, seducing us into the lives of people with needs and agendas that find wings in the dark. Only an author familiar with this landscape could peel back these layers of psychological complexity without flinching and without dramatic compromise, and Frederick does it with the sly assurance of a top who knows where the edge is and is not afraid to linger there. Prepare to submit to this reading experience, which will mark you with its narrative power

The longer the books gestate in my mind they give me some things to think about in my own life, as well as stirring me physically.

I.G. touches upon darkness that many of us hold within ourselves and the inner core that can be broken and rebuilt. She brought out the things that we will do and go through in order to achieve our life goals.

I don't normally write about books but Broken and Shattered really spoke to a deeper place in me plus they were just fun to read.

I recommend the books to everyone.

The other half of the story with the right and wrong paths of an alternative lifestyle, with healing of the wrong path taken.
