Vines don't strangle overnight. They creep, coil, and tighten - until you can hardly breathe.
In this second installment of the Taboo Romances series, John Mark takes readers beyond the sudden temptations of Falling Fruit into the subtler, slower entanglements that wrap around hearts and relationships. Broken Vines explores what happens when longings go unspoken, wounds go unhealed, and desires grow unchecked.
These seven flash-fiction style stories reveal Christians wrestling with love where love doesn't belong:
A pastor caught between loyalty and loneliness.
A counselor tempted by the very people she's called to help.
A marriage cracking under years of silence.
Friendships blurring into something more.
Each tale is raw, reflective, and painfully honest - not written to glorify sin, but to expose the roots of it. In every story, grace is present, sometimes gentle, sometimes severe, reminding us that the Vinekeeper never abandons His garden.
Whether endings lean toward redemption or fracture, every page asks the reader to wrestle with one question: What are the vines growing unnoticed in your own soil?
If you were gripped by Falling Fruit, prepare to go deeper. This book doesn't just prune the surface - it digs into the tangled places most would rather leave hidden.
