The game has entered a new level, and I’m doing things my way now.
Abandoning my men to argue out their obvious insecurities, I realize the only person I can count on is myself. So I enter the dragon’s den to finally face the pervert who thinks he owns me and barter for Archer’s freedom.
I just walked into the scene of the crime my men just returned from. Todd Sweeney is not pleased about what the Brotherhood did to him. This is a dangerous decision I made in a spontaneous, irritated moment, but there’s no turning back. I haven’t come this far to walk away from it all.
Secrets are beginning to loosen from the mouths of those who kept silent, and the more corruption is uncovered, the more me and my men realize how far-reaching the betrayal and dishonesty extend.
A gang war is now imminent, and Prophet will feel the wrath of the Brotherhood of Saints, who has planned his demise for over a decade right under his nose.
IN VERITAS. The truths will be revealed.
This is book 3 and the final book in the Brotherhood of Saints series. It is significantly bigger than the other two previous books.
For trigger warnings refer book 1. Book 3 is darker and more brutal.

Marian Andrew was raised in the city that never sleeps, polished by a British education, and now lives her European dream in Germany alongside her incredibly supportive husband, amazing son, and two mischievous feline sidekicks.
After two decades in the fashion world — jet-setting between New York, London, and the Far East, chasing inspiration across the globe — Marian traded couture for characters.

She also designs all her own book covers, because frankly, no one else can get the vibe just right.
A specialist in digital design and fluent in three languages, Marian grew up with a multicultural heartbeat that fuels her obsession with messy, beautiful human emotions, sharp banter, dangerous chemistry, and the kind of happily-ever-afters you have to fight for.
When she’s not setting her keyboard on fire, she’s ballroom dancing, binge-reading romance novels, or testing celebrity chef recipes (and occasionally setting off the smoke alarm).

This is the final book in the Brotherhood of Saints trilogy and I have to say that this book did not disappoint... I will tell you, I had cried... then took a break, then started my happy tears... SOOO... don't take a break while reading this book, just read it straight through.
Marian Andrew did not come to play when she wrote this series. I've been reading this author's work for a couple of years now and hands down this trilogy is her best work yet.
Talk about an emotional rollercoaster. In Veritas picks up when Impetus ends, and this book did not hold back. Every question ever asked since Invictus has been answered and then some. To witness the struggles and trauma Raven/Revna and her guys: West, Archer, Killian, Kazz and Dylan went through was tough to read but while reading it made you anxious for their revenge.
So many secrets were revealed, and we saw our harem issue their form of justice on those who wronged them in every imaginable way. Raven was finally able to come face to face with her past and seek the vengeance she so desperately needed made possible by the men who are willing to burn the world for her. Raven story was truly heartbreaking. Abandoned as a child, her innocence taken from her at the age of 14 and moving from foster home to foster home until she had enough. Raven literally found her family amongst the Brotherhood of Saints.
West, Archer, Killian and Kazz were finally able to put an end to the torment they experienced since childhood. West and Archer deserved their happiness. As biracial young men being raised by a racist father and grandfather it was a pleasure to read them enacting their revenge.
The main issue that was still causing some dissent in the harem was the guy's acceptance of Dylan. Dylan was by far the ABSOLUTE BEST!!! This man has loved Revna without reservation since childhood. Yes, it was a struggle for Dylan to accept being a part of a harem but there was literally nothing, NOTHING he wouldn't do for his Revna but it was that fierce loyalty and devotion that made West, Archer, Killian and Kazz take notice and give Dylan the respect he was rightfully due. Afterall; without Dylan there would be no Raven and the guys had no intention of ever giving her up.
This story had it all:
Crime Syndicate Dark Themes (human trafficking, r*pe, Abandonment, Abduction etc) Found Family (West reuniting with Archer...aww) Violence Mentions of Human Trafficking Revenge Acceptance Bonds of Brotherhood Witty Banter Why Choose Humor Dealing with Trauma Overcoming adversity The Healing Power of Love
In Veritas was the perfect ending to a story that will keep you on the edge of your sit wondering what will happen next. I am looking forward to what this author has in store next.
I am happy we got this book but like all of Ms. Andrews books, I did not want this series to end. Raven King and her guys are out for revenge. They are tying up loose ends and taking names. In the middle of all of that, they are still dealing with integrating a new member into the boyfriend circle. Raven wants Dylan. Despite how the others feel about him, he is here to stay. Dylan is not used to sharing, but he is going to have to get used to it quickly. Raven is not letting anyone go.
This book starts off exactly where book 2 left off. I did not guess correctly who was standing in the door. I know who I really wanted it to be because I wanted Raven to be safe. Raven's impulsiveness put her directly into the dragon’s den. Her men will stop at nothing to find her. What Raven endured while her boys were fighting to get to her is heartbreaking. Seeing the Raven all the readers knew she would be was amazing. She handled each situation like the boss she was always supposed to be.
I am not going to give anything away because I want readers to be just as surprised as I was with everything that goes on in this book. Ms. Andrews claims this book is longer than the first two, but I promise, readers will not notice. Readers will devour this book so quickly to find out who is behind what and what is lurking around the corner. The war has finally begun. Will the Brotherhood of Saints be victorious? Will Raven and her guys succeed in taking down all of their enemies? Ms. Andrews did a wonderful job with this series. She will definitely be on my must read list.
1 star was automatically deducted due to the use of "unaliving." If the author can describe in detail rape, torture, branding, suicide, and sexual encounters, she should use the proper words for kill, murder and/or death.
Knob count: 54
Listen, I understand that with mafia books, secret societies or just dark themed novels a bit of suspension of disbelief needs to happen. However, Andrew took it a bit too far.
After the FMC was branded, two days later she was able to sit on her butt and someone smacking it just made her wince a bit. Like, dude come on. Raven would have been in EXTREME pain. Another odd thing about this mark, no one really talked about it. Raven rarely thought about it. To me, the branding scene was just there to show how depraved Prophet could be, but it wasn't needed. We knew.
A lot of scenes in the book felt like they were there to just move the plot along, not add depth to the ongoing story.
And that ending? I don't agree with it at all.
I just felt all around disappointed with the direction and editing decisions of the book.
I received a free eARC of this book, and this is my honest and voluntary review.
In the third and final instalment of the ‘Brotherhood of Saints’ trilogy, we continue Raven, West, Dylan, Kazz, Killian and Archers’ story. When Avery deserts her men and walks into the ‘dragon's den’, nothing could be further from the plan. As we delve into Prophet, Butcher and Sweeney’s secrets, a hidden world is uncovered.
I am so sad this is the end of the trilogy! Marian’s writing just gets better with each instalment. I felt even more connected to each character, I especially loved seeing Archer St John and Dylan more in book 3! The sex scenes are on a WHOLE NOTHER LEVEL! 6 POV’s and each one brings a different aspect, whether that be with their wit and charm or their participation in - certain - activities. Marian Andrew will be one of my auto-buy authors now, and I can’t wait to read her other publications.
At 511 pages long, this took me just over 6 hours to read. The only thing I could have wished for was a longer ending - if that’s even possible?! It felt a tiny bit rushed and I would have liked to see more of their life together after the epic battle. Please note, that there are several (understatement of the century) adult scenes with explicit sexual content and violent battles. Please read the trigger warnings in Book 1 before reading.
I love this series so much im so sad to have finished it, this was such an fun and captivating set of characters that follow you from book to book and keep you wanting to stay in their world of danger and debauchery. After reading Marians books now for over a year I can tell you this is her darkest series to date but it was so so sweet, I instantly feel in love with these men and Raven from book one and seeing them on their journey to this book has been keeping me entertained since 2023 and now to have finished the last book I will definitely be binging these again in the near future!!
If you're a dark romance lover like me who enjoys mafia romance as well as reverse harem you need to jump into this series asap. This author has a way of making you fall in love with all the men she writes no matter how morally grey they are and I can promise you you will not regret reading this series for a second!
BOOK: IN VERITAS AUTHOR: Marian Andrew REVIEW: This is the final book in the Brotherhood Saints trilogy and let me tell you, it was a roller coaster ride. In this book, Raven leaves her three men behind and they fight amongst themselves about their insecurities while she goes to barter for Archer's life and his freedom by coming face to face with the creep who thinks he owns her. Todd Sweeney is upset about what Killian, West, Dylan, and Kazz have done to him. Raven knows that this is a dangerous move, but she's not turning back. A lot of secrets surface and the more that comes out, the deeper Raven and her men realize the deceit runs. This book was absolutely fantastic. There were a lot of twists and turns, and the ending was absolutely satisfying. I'm not going to lie to you when I say I cried when I finished the book because it was like saying goodbye to some amazing friends. I can't wait to see what Marian writes next!
Marian did not disappoint!! It was everything I wanted and much more!! It was a roller-coaster of twists and turns. Be prepared we also get some big revelations! There was no shortage of action and suspense. Filled with lots of spice and filled with emotional moments as well.
Rayla is probably one of my favorite FMC! She is a powerhouse, smart and fierce. Her vulnerabilities make her relatable and make me love her more. Her mouth and inner monolog had me cracking up at times. West, Archer, Kazz, Killian, and Dylan. These men will do anything for Rayla and they proved it time and again. I loved the banter between them men. It wasn't always easy for them to share, but they did it all for her.
What an excellent series and an excellent ending!! The author did a fantastic job! All of our questions get answered and the series is wrapped up beautifully!
So this final book of the series is no disappointment. Found family, abused children, more torture, maybe too many sexy scenes. I enjoyed the tension and self reflection by the characters regarding the harem dynamics. They didn't all just jump in and become poly amorous. They thought it through. Lots of mysteries resolved and battles. I do have a few critiques. This book was pretty lazy with the editing. Lots of misspelled, misused and poorly punctuated words. There are also a lot of plot jumps with no indicators. One paragraph they're leaving a restaurant, the next they are beating a guy up? Confusing style. The female mc is an American, but she often speaks like a British native after 4 months. Finally, read all the way to the end.
I highly recommend reading this trilogy. This last book absolutely had me in a chokehold. In Veritas, wraps up everything from book 1 and book 2. I don't want to leave any spoilers, but just know this trilogy, this book alone, is absolutely amazing. I'm so sad this is the end of thr Brotherhood of Saints and Raven. This story was so action packed and the plot was just unbelievable, Marian even threw some twists in there. Thank God, because I was heartbroken. Overall, this book is one of revenge, overcoming, conquering, love, justice, and found family! What a ride it has been and glad I've been able to read this amazing trilogy 🙌
The final chapter of the Brotherhood of Saints series is finally here, and I was not prepared. The fact that this is the longest book in the series definitely made it feel like a little extra treat. I thought the first two books were wild, and book 3 just laughed in my face. I’m sad that the series is over, but what a great way to wrap up Raven’s adventures with the Brotherhood. Overall, this series was packed with excitement, adventure, and so so many new book boyfriends.
The final book I have been waiting for, but also the one I didn’t want to read because that would mean it’s over, it’s done. But I have read it, and I loved it. This couldn’t have turned out better. Miss Andrew did an amazing job with this trilogy. When I thought I had just seen it all, the author gave another twist in this book. She made my cry happy and sad tears, but it was all worth it. I was so happy to finally get to see Raven and her men (Archer, West, Kazz, Killian and Dylan) get the ending they deserved.
This third and final book of the Brotherhood of Saints does not disappoint. It starts with the same pace the previous book left on and didn't stop. With revelations, healing and all the emotions it was truly a rollercoaster. I love how the relationships developed and grew between Raven and her men. Even though the last book of the series it still twists and surprises, while answering lingering questions. I highly recommend this whychoose dark organized crime romance series, it has been a wild ride from book one and didn't let up until the very end.
I'm going to talk about this trilogy we began with raven after she spend an amazing night with Archer a client in her hotel where she works she wake up cover in blood and this where this Journey of healing , finding herself and became this Bad ass Biach who conquer five guys.. this is a gang story where west, killian and kazz are looking for Archer the four guy in a gang called brotherhood, this deal with SA, sex trafficking and other heavy things , Dylan was a bonus , i like this but i felt that the end was rushed but i Will love to read more
This book is fantastic! It has action, romance and spice what more could you ask for? I love Raven & her men and in this book we get to see a bit more of what makes her who she is. I loved watching the relationships develop with all of her men and how they all learned to accept Dylan as a part of their Brotherhood. The twist though got me good and I couldn’t believe what was happening but I loved it, totally unexpected. Fantastic ending to a fantastic series!!
I think my heart stopped beating, but then I know that Marian loves surprises and boy, was it a doozy. Marian is one of my new favorite authors and she never disappoints. This book...OMG this whole series kept me on the edge of my seat. I'm glad that Raven got her happily ever after and the guys from the brotherhood found their light in the darkness and Dylan finally found his family.
It's an action-packed series, but it dragged out in parts. I also felt like the author was going for the shock factor at every opportunity, which was overkill at times.
Some of the British dialogue needs work - no one here has called anyone a "minger" or "minging" since 2010. Yet, there are hardened criminals, gang leaders and paedophiles using it repeatedly throughout this book.
I didn't know how much I needed that ending. I loved the Brotherhood and the final inclusion of Dylan. I would definitely recommend this series but please check your Triggers. Wonderful HEA, would have liked more come the end about the future etc. But certain villain's endings were just awesome! Multi Pov, lots of spice, Angst. Great Character building too.
Oh this book had me by the bootstraps. This book is thick with wrapping everything up in ball full of all the feels! I love how all the characters grow so much in this one and how our girl is truly amazing and one of a kind.
This is the final book in the Brotherhood of Saints trilogy. This book picks up where Impetus left off. The book is filled with lots of spice and an emotional roller-coaster. If you haven't started the series I suggest you start now. It is definitely a must read!!!
This series really is amazing. Mafia, love, building harem and plot. The men are protective and sexy and bada$$. This will definitely be one of my read again series!
Oh my goodness, I was literally on the edge if my seat for this whole book, wondering which turn was next... I had to re-read the last couple of chapters as I thought I'd missed something, such amazing writing and terrific spin at the end, I didn't see it coming. LOVED these books.
This story just keeps you awake. You want to know if they dispose their enemies. Finding out family members are still alive. Get rid of the Father's of the 4 men. Brilliant story. Hard to put down
Dnf at 42% Just why? I just couldn't do it anymore. Book one: had potential Book two : everything went to shit, it was just straight fckn barely any plot. Book three: just why? Third book to ever dnf out of 700+
