Too good not to read!
By Layna
Thank you so much Traci L. Slatton for giving me the opportunity to read and review your latest novel, BROKEN. I was not sure what to expect after reviewing the synopsis but I soon found myself immersed in this novel and fell in love with all the characters.
Alia is a fallen angel who finds herself living in Paris right before the Nazis take over the lands. She finds herself grieving over the lost of her child, Ariel. She indulges in human activities and enjoys the light that humans provide. She is fond of men's company and often finds herself in the arms of the fierce Spanish bullfighter, Pedro. Alia's neighbor Suzanne and her child, Cecile, easily become very close during these hard times. Alia falls in love with her neighbors as if they were her own family. Suzanne's younger brother, Josef tries to escape on a ship called the St. Louis, but was turned away. Together Alia and her friends try and survive the harsh times and Alia does what she must to protect those who are close to her.
I really enjoyed reading this novel. Once I started it, I couldn't put it down until the very end. I really enjoyed reading about the fallen angel Alia and how she lived her life as a human. She sacrificed so much in the name of love. This story was had many elements to it. Sometimes it was fun and care free, other times it was sexy with steamy romance and a lot of the time it was suspenseful and it left you wondering when were the hidden Jews going to be found. I highly recommend this book and although it is not something that I would normally pick up and read, I can't describe how much I love this book. Thanks again Traci for writing such an amazing novel and I can't wait to read more of your works!

BROKEN shocked me multiple times, brought me to tears, and provided good entertainment.
By Stephanie Leroux
I’ve always liked reading historical fiction but personally I’ve never liked reading books about WWII. There’s so many atrocities in that war that I usually can’t face a novel set during that time. However, when I read the synopsis of this book, there was just something about it that caught my attention. I don’t know if it’s the idea of a fallen angel living in occupied Paris or if it’s the idea of a novel about a fallen angel in love with two completely different men, but it just felt like I was about to read something special. Although the story was definitely not what I expect, it was truly original. I think it takes a special mind to come up with a story like this one. It shocked me multiple times, brought me to tears, and provided good entertainment.
The main character, Alia, is the fallen angel in question. As a protagonist, she’s not my favorite because her carefree attitude in the beginning of the novel makes us feel like she doesn’t take the war seriously enough. For her, she’s just passing through, telling herself that she’s not affected by the lives of the humans surrounding her. She’s simply using them for her enjoyment since she has no more obligations as a fallen angel. She does eventually redeem herself multiple times throughout the book, since the book is in part her “transformation” from angel to a human.
Pedro and Josef are the two men Alia gets romantically involved with, that have proven time and time again their worth and their ability to sacrifice their lives for the good of the people. Although I can’t really tell you who she ends up choosing without revealing major spoilers I can tell you either man is a worthy choice for any woman (or angel in this case). Traci L. Slatton took a huge risk by adding eroticism to some of the love scenes but personally I think it’s a great way to balance out the horrors of war. These opposites are strange because it’s unexpected but the love story does provide a way to escape into the story without being overwhelmed by the hostility of the occupation.
One of the aspects that I truly appreciated is the addition of real historical people in the novel. The author included people like Edith Piaf and Coco Chanel, among many others, in her novel and it added some authenticity to the story. Edith Piaf and Coco are the ones that stood out the most for me because they are among some of my favorite French celebrities. Obviously Edith Piaf’s music will live on forever because of her unique voice and amazing talent, while Coco Chanel is known for revolutionizing women’s fashion and beauty. I could go on and on about Chanel because I’m a huge fan of the fragrances and make-up (I can’t afford the clothes so I must fuss about things that are a little less expensive) but I’m not going to turn this post into a beauty/fashion post. Suffice to say, the author certainly got a thumbs up from me for including these celebrities.
I wasn’t sure where the author was going with her novel near the end, and although I’m still not sure if it’s the perfect ending to the story, I think the conclusion allows the readers to reevaluate human life and to understand why some of us are driven to courageous acts. I don’t think BROKEN is so much about how WWII broke the spirits of so many people but about how some were able to overcome so much and still able to piece themselves back together. It’s obvious the author researched her subject thoroughly because the historical references seem accurate. I’m no historian, but ignoring the fictional elements, the war elements were very realistic. Please note that the book does contain some explicit scenes and some dark themes that are not suitable for everyone, however I do recommend it to anyone in the mood for something dark yet enlightening. BROKEN left me a bit confused because even though I enjoyed it, it’s not your everyday paranormal read. I have nothing to compare it to, and it’s hard to define it, but I guess that’s what makes it so stunning because it’s unlike anything I’ve ever read.

Different novel on Occupied Paris
By PaulaD
I enjoyed reading Broken. Ms. Slatton captures the atmosphere and intrigue of Paris before and during the Nazi occupation.
The protagonist, Alia, is a fallen angel who has incarnated in human form, enjoying all the delights of flesh and Paris between the wars. She develops as a character by learning the meaning of self sacrifice and alturism.
This novel has a lot of erotic and romantic elements and I think Ms. Slatton does a masterful job in combining the two genres. A little different from my usual read, and enjoyable. This is a nice novel to read for pleasure.
