Fractured Brotherhood was the seventh book in he Devil’s Knights MC 2nd Generation series by Winter Travers. It was not necessary to have already read the first series; however, this series should be read in order.
The twin brothers, Zig and Zag, have been the humor for all of the books. They fed off of each other with their crazy antics and trouble led the way for them. At the conclusion of the previous book, we knew Zag was in danger, we just didn’t know how yet. We learned pretty quickly that it was a situation where he might not find his way out alive.
We met Tess quickly and she was in danger along with Zag. The author brought us up to speed with both Zag and Tess’s backstory and the story then began. Tess had a speech impediment that was woven into the storyline and I loved that perspective.
All in all, it was a very quick story that outlined the danger and the outcome, with Zag and Tess being unified throughout the process. No spoilers, so no details, but it was enjoyable. I did, however, desire more depth and details. It was a fast read so it stayed on the shallow end. Zig is up next in Ride the Wind, and boy what a cliffhanger!

Loved this one. Zag was diferent than I thought, he seemed something but he wasn't just that person, he had more to show that it appeared. He wanted Tess from the first moment, without even knowing what she looked liked. He was so sweet with her in regards of the stutter she had, very cute and supportive. Tess was a strong woman, people tried to bring her down her whole life and she was still standing. That strength and determination helped her in accepting Zag's love and his big family

Zag and Tess
Malcolm has been known as the psycho who looks to take on the Devils Knights MC and he has just taken Zag and now has him hostage. He is thrust into darkness and has no idea where he is. The one thing he did find out quickly was that he wasn’t the only one that Malcolm had taken and has threatened to kill. Tess is held in the dark room as well.
I loved the storyline of Tess and her speech impediment and how Zag was man enough to look past that. These two worked together but Malcolm was still on the loose. Zag knew he had to keep an eye on Tess now that she was out of the hospital and had moved to a new place. Zig had been watching her until Zag showed up and he was totally against his twin becoming involved with this woman. He went MIA and at the end of the book I was left with my mouth hanging open as to what Zig had been up to.
I have loved this author’s work with the steam, suspense and drama that she writes with. She gives me the alpha men I love so much and strong women who come into their lives. Now, please let me know what is going to happen with Zig!!

I've wanted the twin brothers, Zig & Zag's story for a while now, and I'm super glad that we're finally getting it even if it shocked the hell out of me. Fractured Brotherhood starts out with Zag having been kidnapped, and he's a dark place with no clue as to why. Good news is he's not in the dark by himself, as Tess has been kidnapped as well. Poor Tess, she has a speech impediment which has made for a lack of confidence but Zag is so good with her from the jump. They quickly become a team to get out of the predicament they're in & while the danger wasn't the way that anyone would want to meet their person, this is how their journey began. I'm not going to say anymore about that because it's more fun to travel along with them because nothing is ever easy in the MC life. I LOVE the twists in this series, but I have to say the stuff Zig has been up to really left me with my mouth on the floor as we're kicked right off a big cliff, and I have no idea where it's going to go at this point but I'm dying inside to find out! Anyway, this story was another fantastic read from Winter Travers that I HIGHLY HIGHLY HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

Zag has been abducted by someone with a vendetta against him and the Devil’s Knight MC. The predicament is dire especially once he gets to know his fellow captive and realizes that there is nothing he won’t do to keep her safe.
Tess was alone, frightened and losing hope until Zag comes into her life. He accepts her for the woman she is and that only makes the relationship between them more special.
Suspense, twists you don’t see coming and two people who may meet under the most devastating of circumstances realize that together they can overcome anything.

This was a quick read which I enjoyed. Zag found himself in a possibly deadly predicament along with a young woman. Tess gave him a second reason to find a way out. He was so caring and accepting of her. She had her own personal/past issues, and Zag helped her come out of herself more and have some happiness. They had survived one attempt together, now they waited for the threat to return as they fell in love with each other. Good story, and I look forward to the next one.

Fractured Brotherhood by Winter Travers is book 7 in the Devil’s Knights 2nd Generation Series. This is the story of Zag and Tess. This book is interconnected to the last book and this series. So I do recommend reading them in order. This book picks up with Zag who was taken in the last book. He finds himself locked in a basement but he isn't alone. Tess is in the basement too. We have slowly learned who has been hurting everyone but this book doesn't end the interconnecting story line. So there is another installment in this series. I cannot wait for it.

Fractured Brotherhood
Whoa, what a great way to start a relationship. The story makes you think is this true or is it because of the situation you were in. And then Texas's back story, can she handle Zag and the MC family that comes him? This story is wonderful

I didn't like Zag all the much in the past but liked him in this story. I felt bad for the h when occasions club members invited themselves over, who does that. Interested in seeing what's up with Zig.

Finally finding out what happened to Zag! After the major cliffhanger involving him in the last book, I was desperate to find out what happened and if he’d make it out alive! This book starts with Zag finding out he’s been kidnapped, along with the fact that he’s not alone in captivity. Tess doesn’t understand why she’s been kidnapped by her ex-stepbrother, but she knows enough to know she won’t make it out alive, and neither will Zag. As they get to know each other while in captivity, we find that Tess has a speech impediment, and Zag takes note that people have not been kind to her about it over the years. And somehow, what is supposed to be their end, Zag is able to save them both. Unfortunately, the bad guy is still out there, and Tess is just looking to move on and stay hidden. She isn’t very good at that though, and the MC is able to get eyes on her and when Zag finds out, he goes to her to keep her safe while also exploring the feelings he has for her that he can’t explain, and she has for him. I was so happy for them to end up together, and I can’t wait to see what happens with Zag’s twin, Zig, especially after the cliffhanger Winter leaves us with!

Fractured Brotherhood is an absolute captivating story right from the very first page. Zag and Tess's story takes us on one action packed ride full of twists and turns. The connection between these two is enchanting and has you drawn into the intensity between them. Tess's character is so quirky and I love the way that not only Zag loves her but that the Devil's Knights bring her into the fold with no judgement. Their story is passionate, sweet and full of witty banter to have you entertained from start to finish. All that being said, can we just jump to the good part or in this case the ending, OMG what a twist and now I am on the edge of my seat barely hanging on. Just to clarify Zag and Tess's story is not a cliffhanger BUT this author drops a bomb of epic proportion and will have you anxious for another characters story.

Fractured Brotherhood is book seven in the Devil's Knights Second Generation series and the last in the series (weeps in corner lol). Zag and Tess share a connection from the moment they are thrown together. He doesn't care about her quirkiness or her speech issue so it makes him that much hotter. The suspense and drama of the MC continue and they are closing in on Malcolm. He is a crazy man and that probably isn't even the right word to describe him. Zig, always being the quieter one really ups the suspense and lordy lord that did not happen (wth). It is sad to see this series come to an end cause you get to see the O.G. 's, the Ole Ladies and this generation. One thing you take away from not being able to eat all of Meg's food is not gaining weight haha. I highly recommend reading this series in order from an MC aspect and look forward to more from this author.

WOW! Fractured Brotherhood is an amazing read. From the heart pounding suspense that we begin with to the heart breaking ending. I will not elaborate with that last statement as you will need to read this magnificent read to figure out what I speaking of.
Zag and Tess meet under very unconventional circumstances, and their relationship grows from the need of not being alone. I loved how Zag builds up Tess's self confidence and helps her believe in herself. Tess is a sweet heroine who has been bullied most of her life. She tends to be a bit of a loner and prefers to be alone so you can just imagine what it was like when she met the club. Especially Meg. LOL.
I do need the next book, because I NEED to know what is going on with Zig.

WOW!
I loved it! This series has s many ups and downs and trials and tribulations. Surprises around every corner. This book we find out what happened to Zag and Tess. There is one thing I don't like about this series and this book does it alot, is how everyone is talking but no one is listening and suggestions and decisions are being thrown around but they just don't stop and it's annoying. When Zag finally just makes up his own mind and walked out I was so relieved he made the decision he did. It surprised me when Marco and Leo got involved and King and the club went behind Zag's back about Tess. I was really hoping Tess and Zag would get together after going though something so traumatic together. At times the suspense started getting to me, wondering if or when Malcolm would show up again. I was jittery waiting for it. Zig is the one that has me puzzled. The way he is acting toward Zag is kinda of weird. He's really being an @ss. The way Zag is so sweet and patient and understanding with Tess and her stuttering was so heartwarming. There wasn't much to laugh about in this book but the suspense and the romance and general sweetness made up for it. And as always the sex scenes are so smokin hot. The cliffhanger again had me saying WTF?!! I just can't believe it, this one is gonna cause alot of heart ache I'm afraid. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS SERIES TO EVERYONE.

Zag & Tess
At the end of the last book, Zag is missing and it looks like the one terrorizing the club has taken him.
Where he ends up he's not alone. There's Tess but it isn't easy to get to know her. It is next to impossible to tell about the book without giving spoilers but I can say Zag is amazing and their relationship will make you smile and cheer them on--if the dangers allow them a chance...
The club is active in the story, the ol ladies are up to their usual, King is still wrapped by Meg, and the guys are the guys. As always, another amazing story with a lead into the next that will have you panting for it.

Sweet nibblets. ! .
Winter Travers likes to throw us a curve ball doesn't she ?. I did not see that ending coming in regards to Zig.
As for Malcolm that dude is and was delusional. I love how Winter keeps us on the edge but at the same time it's so frustrating because I always want a happily ever after and even though we get it . The things she put her characters through to get that ending is a emotional rollercoaster for this reader. I can't wait for Zigs book.
I love this series and it's always a delight when Meg , and the old ladies make an appearance.

Holy Cannoli! Just when you think the series can't get any better....it does! I say this after every single book I ready by Winter, I need the next one STAT! Zag and Tess, both innocent and dragged into this horrid situation, but the pull that they feel towards each other is palatable. The fight for safety, freedom, brotherhood and love is incredibly clear in this book. I can't wait to ready Zig's book to figure out what is going on between this set of twins and watch him finally fall to his knees!

This is the seventh book in this phenomenal series, and this is Zag and Tess’s story. This story continues straight on from where the last book ended, with the Devil’s Knights looking for one of their own. The old ladies are up to their crazy shenanigans which is highly entertaining. This is a well written story which has twists, suspense, danger, intrigue, humor, witty banter, drama, emotions, and love, which leads to an entertaining and riveting story. I look forward to reading more from this talented author whose work I highly recommend.
June 7, 2022
Oh my goodness! This story started strong and didn't stop. I love the suspense and nail biting, the protectiveness that Zag has towards Tess and how perfectly he is with her. It's a slow burn, which fits their story so well! This series has been amazing, getting to visit with the original members and digging in to each of the second generation keeps the stories going. I adored Zag and Tess, the connection, the sweetness, the heat. It's a great read in a must read series!

Tess had been to many doctors for her speech impediment. Her own mother criticized so much that she refused to talk. Poor girl. Alone and unloved. Her stepbrother had kidnapped her.
Zag and his twin brother Zig were always in trouble with their antics from an early age. Now Zag finds himself locked in a room with a concussion and a girl who doesn't talk. If it hadn't been for his quick thinking they both would be dead.
Their bond pulled them closer to one another even though evil was still lurking in the shadows.
Now Zig did the unbelievable!
My new family is so crazy!! Love them all!!

LOVED! LOVED THIS BOOK!
It is an amazing read! I loved Tess, such a strong woman. I wasn't incredibly fond of Zag in the other books but he redeemed himself spectacularly in this one!
It is hard to gush about this book too much without giving away spoilers. If you are reading this series you NEED to read this book! It's so good I would suggest reading it as a stand-alone but it might be a bit confusing!
Can't wait for book 8

WOW Zag and Tess's story with an ending that left me with my mouth handing open and no words coming out. I sure hope it all works out because of it doesn't I'm gonna end up losing my ever lovin mind. Zag and Tess may have met under circumstance beyond their control, but it was clear they were ment for one another. I can't can't wait to see more of them in the future and how the end of their story plays out.

Wow! This was a fantastic read. This is Tess and Zags story. At the end of the last book Zag had been taken and at the beginning of this book we found out by who and why. However, he's not alone in that basement. Tess is with him. Tess is such a strong woman and these two are perfect together! This book also perfectly set up the next one, oh my gosh what in the world is going on with Zig?? It's going to be crazy and I can't wait!

Tess & Zag
This was a more sweet & less actiony installment of our Knights, & I really enjoyed Tess & Zag! Plus, there's some zany Meg time, of course! 😉
Tess has a speech impediment that endeared her to me, and the way Zag shows her that it doesn't define her or isn't a hinderence is very sweet. Some of the family dynamics going on made me tear up, & I just wanted to give a couple characters giant hugs!

Zag og Tess and a real curve ball at the end!
At the end of the last book Zag had been taken and at the beginning of this book we found out by who and why. However, he's not alone in that basement. Zag was taken and felt his world coming to an end. He didn’t know where he was or who took him but he knew someone else was there. Tess was scared and alone in the dark. She didn’t know why and barely wanted to live until someone was thrown into the cage with her.

Holy crap this book blew me out the water. First page hooks it's teeth into you and by the ending we are just mind blown at everything that has happened. Winter was not pulling any punches this book and it was freaking amazing! Zag and Tess give us some really great drama, hot naughty bits, gripping danger, and a bit of violence. I can't wait for Zig's story and give Zag and Tess 5 stars.

That's crazy!! I still have a few unanswered questions. I don't understand why she was captured by him in the 1st place. His twin is all sissy but why? Yes he was scared when his brother disappeared and kidnapped but he wants 2 blame a innocent 4 no real reason. She was a victim just like he was. Can they find his bro and find Malcolm b4 it's 2 late? Will both her and zig die the 2nd x around? Read and find out. I liked it.

Holy Batman this was good! Zag was taken and felt his world coming to an end. He didn’t know where he was or who took him but he knew someone else was there. Tess was scared and alone in the dark. She didn’t know why and barely wanted to live until someone was thrown into the cage with her. He wouldn’t stop talking and she didn’t realize that’s what she needed to keep her alive.

And that ending?!!! WTF?!!!!
An absolutely fantastic read!!!
