Jenn (The Book Refuge)'s Reviews > Filthy Savage

Well, you better strap yourself in and hold on tight! This book was a wild ride right from the jump! From a whirlwind meeting to a sexy one night stand, a secret baby and a clandestine reunion... Filthy Savage just doesn't quit! Fionn and Amara were electric together and they just clicked the night they met.

Amara just so happened to go by a fake name that night and after dumping her abusive boyfriend and going to a wedding with Fionn (yes, the same night!) She doesn't think he'll ever look for her. Too bad he doesn't even have the chance because he's now searching for an "Emily" that doesn't exist.

When they run into each other years later. Things have changed quite a bit. Fionn is in the middle of mob business and Amara sees more than she should. When he tracks down the little spy, he discovers his dream girl... and her sweet little daughter. Yup. Oops! Now there is more to that situation, of course, so don't judge it too harshly off that description. I really liked the Secret Baby aspect actually. And I'm a hard sell for those.

Once Fionn has her in his arms again, he ain't ever letting his woman go. Whether she's compliant or not. She's his.

Now, all that is good. I had a great time overall. I just have a few tiny issues. I'm starting to feel a very similar vibe from each and every hero in this series and previous ones. They all like some kink. They all are possessive in the same way. It just starts to feel very same-y.

Anyway! This was still a decent Mafia Romance and if you like some revenge against an ex, this has a particular treat for you.
