Heat Level:
Dangerous: Former Navy SEAL Clarence Wolfe’s unit was taken out with a land mine. Injured and devastated, he hasn’t been quite right since. Worse, the tragedy was no accident. All Wolfe wants now is to take down the man responsible. In the meantime, he’s good with being the muscle for the Deep Ops team—and leading a steamy no-strings-attached personal life. Until one intriguing woman changes everything . . .
Determined: Reporter Dana Mulberry is on a mission to avenge the death of a fellow journalist. She’s finally hot on a trail—right to a sex club—where she runs into . . . Wolfe? It seems both their leads have led to the same spot. To keep from blowing their covers, they’ll have to at least pretend to have a little fun. Trouble is, they genuinely like each other. And that’s way too risky for Wolfe, especially when, to his surprise, Dana agrees . . .
Complicated: Drawn to each other in ways they can’t understand, Wolfe and Dana keep it professional—until they’re shot at one night. And when their adventures land them both at the heart of corruption in D.C.—and at odds in their missions—they’ll have to dig deeper than ever to succeed in their quests—and with each other . . .
If a team of misfit agents, a dog with a drinking problem, and a swoon-worthy romance with an intense case sound like your kinda thing…. run don’t walk to grab Broken by Rebecca Zanetti. Part of the Deep Ops series, I love this group of agents and their romances.
Requisition Force is part of Homeland Security. The team is an outcast of misfits, ex-cons and alphas with issues. I love them all! While each book stands on its own and contains one agent’s romance and case, you’ll want to meet the team and read their stories from the beginning,
I have been waiting for Wolfe’s story since the beginning. An agent wearing a trench coat with a kitten in his pocket who likes coffee with whipped cream and sprinkles has a story to tell and Zanetti did not disappoint!
Coffee Dates with Broken
- First Date: Reporter Dana Mulberry is on a personal case dressed as a submissive at an exclusive sex club house party when she spots Agent Clarence Wolfe. Wolfe is a Former Navy SEAL whose been working his own vendetta case on the side. Sparks, undeniable chemistry, snarky banter await you when the two flee after the man they were both looking for ends up dead.
- Second Date: Someone wants one of them dead, Wolfe’s old nemesis has made contact and Dana refuses to go into hiding, so she ends up bunking at Wolfe’s house. I loved seeing these two stubborn, driven characters together. Dana is insightful and sees past Wolfe’s attitude. Scorching moments, RULES, denial and sweet build up play side by side with intense action, danger and hilarious moments involving the team, Roscoe the dog and family.
- Thrid Date: As the danger escalates, Dana brings the rest of the team in on Wolfe’s case when ties link to her case. This last date sees character growth, some healing, explosive danger and sweet swoon-worthy moments. While fast-paced, the cases threaded together and felt genuine. I loved the dynamics of the team, the teasers about things to come and the camaraderie we witnessed.
Broken delivered everything I hoped for and was the perfect escape. I laughed, cried, adored the romance and didn’t want my time with this team to end.

I am glad you are enjoying this series Kimberly. I read the first two and enjoyed the stories, and the characters, but there was just a bit too much descriptive loving going on for me. Maybe, I should still read it, as I did want to read about Wolfe’s story. Great review.

The fact that they’re a team has gotten to me. I have been loving found family or ‘groups of people who are close friends’ tropes so much lately that I think it might be my favourite trope of all time. And I never say no to a romance as well, when it comes paired with an exciting plot!
