Length: 11 hrs and 53 mins

Publisher's Summary

"For fractured souls are like magnets. Drawn to collide into an impossible bliss."

Labeled a 'Cursed' woman of Eve from birth, Maddie has endured nothing but pain and repression at the hands of The Order's most abusive elder, Moses. Now living with her sister in The Hangmen's secluded compound, finally, Maddie is free. Free from the suffocating faith she no longer believes in. Free from endless years of physical and mental torment. Just free.

At age 21, the timid and shy Maddie is content to live within the confines of her new home - safe from the outside world, safe from harm and, strangely, protected by the Hangmen's most volatile member: the heavily pierced and tattooed Flame. Flame. The man who ceaselessly watches over her with his midnight dark and searing eyes. The man who protects her with a breathtaking intensity. And the man who stirs something deep within her numbed heart. But when circumstances conspire for Flame to need her help, Maddie bravely risks it all for the broken man who has captivated her fragile soul.

The Hangmen's most infamous member, Flame is ruled by one thing - anger. Plagued by haunting demons from his past, an all-consuming rage, and isolated by an abhorrent hatred of being touched, Flame's days are filled with suffocating darkness, pierced only by a single ray of light - Maddie. The shy, beautiful woman he cannot purge from his thoughts. The woman he has an overwhelming need to possess, the only person who has ever been able to touch him. Flame's mission in life is to protect Maddie, to keep her safe. Until a trigger from his troubled past sends him spiraling into madness, trapping him in the deepest recesses of his disturbed mind. His Hangmen brothers fear that Flame is beyond saving. His only hope of salvation: Maddie and her healing light.

Flame & Maddie ~ My Favorite In The Series!

There were so many scenes I loved! Really, anything to do with Flame. He was such a quiet character, I liked learning more about what was going through his mind, and what made him tick.

Maddie helping Flame learn to overcome being touched, and them moving forward despite their pasts.

Despite this being a dark story with many triggers, it is captivating, well written and has excellent character development. Well worth the time, and I look forward to the next book in the series!

All the feels and emotions

I have been looking forward to Flame's story since I started this series and it didn't disappoint. All the twists and turns, I never saw it all coming. Very good listen, highly recommend.

Great story. Ok narration.

Love this series. Gritty and different. Sad, yet inspiring that they could find and choose each other to love.

Negative- This time the male narrator kept doing the h's voice with a slight British accent for some reason. Totally unexplainable since they are in Texas and the other cult members all talk with southern type accents. It was distracting.

FLAME MELTED MY HEART

The publishers summary is spot on. This is a very different MC series. Fitting that the MC's name is Hades Hangmen since they fight a religious cult.

I never give spoilers but I think people need a warning with this series. The cult, adult men, rape girls starting at the age of eight years old all in the name of religion. Of course, the men also have more than one wife. This series is dark, gritty, and sometimes sick.

Flame endured his own hell as a child and this is why he can't stand to be touched. The way he was treated broke my heart and angered me. I would make nasty comments out loud and my husband and son would look at me and shake their head.

Tillie Cole has once again written an all consuming series. I also love her Scarred Souls series.

J.F. Harding, Violet Strong, and Douglas Berger gave a fantastic performance.

This is absolutely worth a credit if you like dark and gritty.

I loved this book!

Great story, great narrators, great point of view on abuse, and recovery! I don't normally share my reviews, because who am I right? If your looking for mc sluts, club antics, basic mc sex scenes, ect., this would be the WRONG book for you because there is NONE! Regardess of being in the completely wrong catagory in Audible (drama would have been my sugesstion) it waa an intense listen.

Very dark and a little scary!

This audiobook is a continuation of the Hades Hangmen MC club saga. The background of the hero in this story is so dark and his coping mechanisms are very extreme. It may be disturbing and may be a trigger for some listeners, as rape is mentioned a lot. The heroine is one of the "cursed" women from the religious cult. It's also very dark in her past and the two of them together is an enigma that the club can't understand. But they are each the other's savior and without the other neither one of them will survive this life. Narration was great! By far this is the darkest book in the series as yet.

favorite book of all time

This book moved up to my favorite spot when it came out and this Audio version just sent it sailing into neverland. This is still my most favorite and listened to book ever.

One damaged boy. One damaged girl

My Flame. This book is definitely a dark read with lots of unimaginable things that happen to Flame and Maddie. But under all the pain is Love. Full of angst and twists and turns that will make it hard to put this book down.

Brilliant!

Souls Unfractured is a heart rending, yet beautiful love story. It's also book 3 in the Hades Hangmen series so it's dark and contains abuse. I highly recommend it!
