Off-Limits Lovers #3
Lying for Keeps
Not yet published
Expected 24 Feb 26I went to billionaire Ben Adams to settle a score with his cheating son. Instead, I started a game I can’t win—with a man I can’t quit.
Victoria
All I wanted was to tell my sleazy ex-boyfriend’s dad what a jerk his son was.
I never imagined the captivating, charismatic lawyer and owner of the resort where I teach would think I was trying to pick him up—or that it would work.
What should have been one electrifying and unforgettable night is now turning into…something else.
Ben is nothing like I imagined. He’s alpha and dominating in the best way. He makes me feel special and powerful. Every time I run, he chases me. Every terrifying, sexy game I invent, he plays along with—holding me captive while I scream everything but my safeword.
I’m dragging this truth grenade around with me, knowing it’s only a matter of time before it blows my new paradise to hell, taking my relationship, my home, and my job with it.
I should just let him go, but this addiction has its claws in me, and it isn’t going down without a fight…
Lying for Keeps brings you a billionaire single dad, a secretive heroine, scorching chemistry, and cat-and-mouse games that blur every line. With fitness rivalries, forbidden desire, and emotional (and actual) disasters, it’s a fight for love with everything on the line.
Surrender to temptation in the third standalone novel in the Off-Limits Lovers series, where billionaire bad boys discover that true love is the ultimate thrill.

please note that the trigger warnings and topes/themes may contain spoilers
I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own.
HEA: yes
POV: dual 1st person POV
spice: several open-door spicy scenes
TWs: primal play, CNC, natural disaster, death of a spouse (recounted), cheating, ghosting, D/s relationship with no aftercare (book foreword reminds this is fiction and not a how-to for BDSM)
standalone: book 3 of Off-Limits Lovers series, interconnected standalones
final thoughts: this was a fun and spicy read heavily featuring scary movies, fear play, primal play, and CNC.
I liked the MCs and the side characters, there was plenty of spice, and there was enough plot to keep me engaged in the story surrounding their love affair. Characters from the other Off-Limits stories make appearances in this book and it would be helpful to the story to know who they are and their background, however this can be read as a standalone without any plot holes.
Note: The MCs engage in a Dom/sub relationship, but do not follow typical and safe BDSM practices like after care but, as with 99% of fiction, these shouldn’t be scripts to follow at home.

I AM OBSESSED WITH THIS SERIES!! I have been a fan since book 1 and it just keeps getting better and better each book.
I'm gonna tell you that I was shooketh. I did not expect straight-laced, control freak Ben to let loose like that but let me tell you I'm not mad about it.
And I mean - I was sold when Victoria's friend, Sally, said "You could f**k his dad". Sally is a girl's girl 🤣
If you like fast burns and age gaps - the Off Limits series is for you 😉 Enjoy!!
Also - the author's note at the end - loved it. Not that she had to explain why she writes age gaps - but like it also helped me put into words EXACTLY WHY I LOVE THEM.

This was fantastic!!! I didn’t think it could get better after Avery, but Ben… yes please!!! This book had everything I needed. Primal play, ex’s dad 🥵🥵🥵. I love this series so much and it just keeps getting better as the series goes on. Can’t wait for the next book because I have fell in love with all of these characters. I love how this book takes two different people and shows them that they can be the best thing that ever happened to each other, but you have to go for what you want!

"Vic, you have changed my life in ways I never thought were possible."
Another 5 start read by Lore Townsend!
I loved the age difference trope, and the spicy scenes were top-notch!
This definitely introduced me to the BDSM genre and I am all for it!
Eagerly awaiting book 4!
"You look perfect. You are perfect."

I love a good "ex boyfriend's dad" trope and Lore Townsend did not disappoint! Victoria discovers the guy she has been seeing for the past few months has moved on by discovering a social media post of him and another woman. At the same time, her now ex's dad (Ben) walks into the bar at the resort she is staying at. She goes to give him a piece of her mind about his crappy son but ends up flirting with him. Things escalate very quickly but can you really have a relationship with your ex's dad????
June 26, 2025
2.5 stars tbh. I live for this trope, but honestly this book may have brought that to an end 😅. I’m surprised by all the really high ratings and not sure if we read the same book? This has a pretty high avg rating. Much higher than “Birthday Girl” and “Praise” which have a similar concept and I felt were more enjoyable. So I was surprised when I came across this and hadn’t heard of it before.
So technically the H’s son never officially dated h. h and the ex weren’t really in a relationship. It was more of a situationship and he was like I’m gonna move to this island, you should come with, since you’re not doing anything. And she was like oh sure. h and the ex are both college dropouts by the way.
Anyways, the story starts off with a jilted h at the beach. Her “ex” of 2 months just randomly ghosted her and went off to Indonesia or something. He posts a picture at the beach with another girl and she’s pissed. H is at the bar and looks sad (apparently he’s been globetrotting, trying to track down his son). Her friend is joking like you should sleep with his dad as revenge and she’s like omg what a great idea. So she walks over there to tell him how much his son sucks. But then H is so charming, h is like I have to get in bed with him 🙂↕️.
H is a widower by the way. His wife died when his son was like 6 and I think they’re 23 now. It’s been A LONG time, he doesn’t really do relationships. He just hires women for some BDSM stuff.
Anyhow, h knows who H is and doesn’t say anything about her “ex”. They do the deed and it’s supposed to be a ONS. H doesn’t realize she’s an employee at his hotel because h lies about this when he asks her point blank. h is a Pilates instructor, H and his friends walk into her class the next morning and they meet again. They decide to maybe get to know each other. But then when it comes time to going on a date, H chickens out (this is a recurrent theme, like he’s not ready for a relationship).
So she kind of ends up stalking him to his house and forcing a movie night on him. They fool around some more and she ends up staying with him for a bit. Literally I think in her ex’s room lol, while H sleeps down the hall.
H is desperate to fix his relationship with his son. H’s son dropped out of college and basically has been traveling, he’s begging him to enroll and get his life together. Honestly this H was like sad and just so in the dumps. It was hard to read. Like this is the first time I’ve read this trope and the H was essentially going through a midlife crisis the whole time. He realizes his life sucks. And even though he has fancy lawyer job and money, he isn’t happy. But his dropout son and dropout h are happy? So maybe he should take a page from their book? 🤔
I didn’t like the h, she was like super immature. She’s supposed to be 23. But honestly she came across like 17. She actively lies and tries to manipulate this man the WHOLE time. There’s a bad storm and the other employees live at H’s mansion for a bit, and she’s freaking out the whole time, people will let it slip she dated ex. 🤦♀️ H is so confused why she’s so adamant on people not finding out, cause he’s thinking about a real relationship with her lol.
There was a lot of primal play, role play, and BDSM. A couple of the spicy scene were hot ngl. But I just found both main characters to be unlikable and couldn’t connect.
Anyways h, gets busted when ex finally shows up back on the island. Turns out he was off building houses in Indonesia, not partying(?). H basically just ups and leaves, like he just can’t deal Lmaoo. He was gonna ask h to move back to NY with him. The ex just kind of forgives h right away, no big deal she slept with his dad for revenge lol. He couldn’t have cared less lol. Because apparently h has been a good influence and helped H become less uptight 😬.
Ex helps h move to NY. H won’t answer her calls. So she sends in a fake resume to his law office and he thinks it’s funny, so he gives her an interview. They kind of sort out their issues but he doesn’t want a relationship still. He literally goes to her home, they hook up and then he just walks out AGAIN. h and Ex are also besties now, he already thinks of her as stepmom even though H has her blocked lol.😭 H finally has an epiphany that he’s so sad and has been torturing himself after losing his wife to cancer suddenly. I guess he felt he neglected her. H gets with h and he basically has her move in right away. They get engaged in the epilogue.
I didn’t like this because this was less “hot revenge on cheating ex” and more “lost 20 something sleeps with sad middle aged man having a midlife crisis”😐. The chemistry was just lacking between h and H, given she kind of lied and manipulated him for most of the book, it really felt like she was in it for the mansion and payday. I think a major entertainment factor of this trope is “revenge”, so like when the ex shows up and couldn’t be bothered to give a shit, that whole reveal just falls flat lmaoo. A majority of the book also felt like H was lecturing h and ex about being dropouts and viewed them as bums lol. Like that was just not sexy at all and took me out a few times. I persevered and finish to get you this review.

Savage Lover is a spicy, angsty erotic romance between business man, Ben and Pilates instructor, Victoria. The spice level is OTT but definitely read trigger warnings as the kink might not be for everyone!
Words that come to mind when I think about this book: Dark. Chaotic. Dangerous. Passionate. Like an island storm, these two collide with a sinful recklessness that both thrills them and scares them in equal measure. And their story is an emotionally addictive mess that will sweep you right along side them as they figure things out.
The OTT level of intensity takes you on a wild up and down ride with plenty of heart wrenching twists and turns. I loved Victoria, she was a little broken when we first meet her but she was such a fighter. And with Ben's special brand of support and care, she grew more and more confident with herself and was finally able to see and appreciate her own strengths and flaws.
Ben was another surprise I wasn't expecting! He was a sweet, affectionate man but had a darker more dominate side that Victoria was able to call to the surface like no one else. It was definitely fun to see him let down his guard and embrace his darkness with Victoria. They gave the word fun a whole new meaning!
Didn't get a full 5 stars because I wanted Ben to pursue Victoria for once. I felt like too many times, Victoria chased Ben after he changed his mind or tried to distance himself from her and he sort of just gave in every time. When he pulled that stunt in New York I was hoping for some hard core groveling or big romantic gesture to win her back but Victoria was just too happy to have him back to really make him work for her forgiveness.
If you like age gap, forbidden romance, ex's dad trope and your spice on the darker side, I can definitely recommend this one.

I would like to give this one more than 5 stars, because it deserves it. The story is full of exciting scenes and spicy dialog, and so well written with realistic scenarios and highly engaging characters.
Victoria hasn't had the best luck in love, but she intends to change that. She's allowed herself to be walked all over, and it's time for a change. She just arrived for a new job at The Sands Resort in the tropics as a Pilates instructor. The resort coincidentally is owned by Ben Adams, Ainsley Adams' father. Victoria just found out Ainsley is already seeing a new woman without so much as a polite brush-off for Victoria. She and her friend Sally are In the hotel lounge where she sees Ben. She decides to confront him and charge him with raising a playboy douche of a son. But Ben already knows that, and he's looking rather forlorn himself. She can't confront him after all, and then…..she ends up in Ben's penthouse. She decides to withhold the fact that she already knows Ainsley and finds that his father is a charming rogue who is intelligent and interesting. He challenges Victoria's intellect and incites her libido.
Their relationship grows, but it eventually comes to a screeching halt when Ainsley unexpectedly shows up just when Victoria is about to come clean to Ben. What will Ben think now? Will he give Victoria a chance to explain? Or will he return to New York City and go on like they had never met?
There's a beautiful story here of how a determined young woman teaches a stubborn older man about the power of love and forgiveness.
This is definitely one of those books where you want to have enough time to read it all the way through, because you won't want to put it down. Don't spoil it by skipping to the end because you'll be disappointed if you do. There's so much essential content that you'll miss out on if you do.
Victoria hasn't had the best luck in love, but she intends to change that. She's allowed herself to be walked all over, and it's time for a change. She just arrived for a new job at The Sands Resort in the tropics as a Pilates instructor. The resort coincidentally is owned by Ben Adams, Ainsley Adams' father. Victoria just found out Ainsley is already seeing a new woman without so much as a polite brush-off for Victoria. She and her friend Sally are In the hotel lounge where she sees Ben. She decides to confront him and charge him with raising a playboy douche of a son. But Ben already knows that, and he's looking rather forlorn himself. She can't confront him after all, and then…..she ends up in Ben's penthouse. She decides to withhold the fact that she already knows Ainsley and finds that his father is a charming rogue who is intelligent and interesting. He challenges Victoria's intellect and incites her libido.

Oh wow, where do I even start with Savage Lover? This book completely hooked me from the get-go. It's exactly what I look for in a spicy, taboo romance—an ideal mix of plot, character depth, and steamy scenes.
At first glance, I was a bit skeptical. The official synopsis, with its focus on dubcon/chase games, made me wonder if it would really be my thing. But let me tell you, these elements were executed so masterfully that I was thoroughly impressed. Townsend knows how to walk that fine line, making the scenes intense without crossing into uncomfortable territory.
The chemistry between the characters was off the charts. The dynamic between the billionaire single dad lawyer and the mysterious vixen, Victoria, was electric. And let’s talk about the taboo aspect—handled with such finesse! It added an extra layer of intrigue and excitement without feeling forced or over-the-top.
What really surprised me, though, was the depth this book had. It wasn't just about the heat (though there was plenty of that!). Townsend deftly touched on themes like classism, misogyny, and the courage to pursue unconventional dreams. It made the story feel richer and more grounded.
Another thing I loved was the maturity of the characters. There's no silly miscommunication trope here—just adults reacting realistically to complicated situations. It was refreshing to see them handle their issues with honesty and openness.
I devoured Savage Lover in just two days. It’s a captivating read that balances the spice with a meaningful plot, making it a standout in the genre. If you’re into taboo romances with well-developed characters and a storyline that keeps you on your toes, this one’s a must-read.

I thought this would be a slow burn like the other books but was I wrong. Lore Townsend came out with spice from the beginning. This is my favorite book out of the series now. Victoria's friend Sally was hilarious encouraging her to hook up with Ben and her reasons behind it. I loved getting to know Ben more as well as learning more about his and Ainsleys relationship. I also like finding out how they got so disconnected from what Ainsley really wanted in his life compared to what Ben was trying to push on him. The banter between Victoria and Ben through the whole story was amazing. I really loved seeing Ben grow out of his daily habits and start to show the old Ben everyone was used to see. Each time Voctoria met someone Ben knew I kept waiting for the pen to drop and for her to get caught. When Ainsley came home I was screaming at my tablet. I was yelling at my tablet for Ben to go into Victoria's room when he heard her crying and couldn't believe he just left. I get why he left but come on Ben really? It was funny that Ainsley and Victoria ended up friends in the end and encouraged her to fight for what she really wanted. When Ainsley showed Victoria Bens text with him and how they changed when he was with Victoria really showed how much Ben started to change having someone in his life that was good for him. Reading about how Ainsley helped Victoria made me change my thoughts about Ainsley. I kinda didn't like him at first thinking he was a player type of guy but by the end you find he's really a nice guy. The resume that ended up on Ben's desk was hilarious and so was the interview. The bonus scene! Do not pass on the bonus scene.

The way I just devoured this book! I couldn't put it down. It's like my eyes were glued to the "pages." The spice was scrumptious, the banter was delectable, and the character development made my heart full. I love a solid taboo romance that provides you with the perfect mixture of steam and story.
I felt like lessons were learned in this book. These characters had to look within themselves, and they had to grow!
I'm a sucker for an age gap, and this one did not disappoint. Filled with secrets, spice, and a splash of drama.
Ben & Victoria captivated me with their roller coaster of a romance. They both had to make hard decisions and grow up. And if they want their HEA, they have to RUN for it. A control freak that had to figure out how to let go and an indecisive young woman who had to learn how to go and get what she wanted!
This was my first book by Townsend, and it definitely won't be my last. I can't wait to read the other installments in this series. I finished this book in a few hours over two days.
I recommend reading this book if you love:
> age gap
> forbidden lovers
> ex's dad
> praise
> primal
> bdsm
"Sure, I may be in an unconventional, mostly secret relationship with a woman young enough to be my child. Sure, I may exhaust myself almost every night of the week pretending to savage her in some creative new way. But I'm having fun. For possibly the first time ever."

REVIEW ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
First things first, thank you Lore, for sharing this ARC with me, trusting me with this review. Second, this book made me giggle so much that my stomach hurt. That's not fair!
The spice was 🌶🌶🌶🌶 and I loved every bit of it. To be honest, the reason for my giggles was all Ben. He's hot and ready but underneath all of that breathtaking beauty, he's cute and probably one of the sweetest men I read about.
His kinks made me smile widely and every time he let Vic challenge him, I died a little bit inside. It was truly funny, cute and overall, SPICEYY!
We are safe to say that Victoria sure is a bratty and god, it was satisfying to see. This woman is both smart and full of personality. I really connected with her through the story.
The story and feelings, however, felt like they moved a little too fast which made me feel confused at times. But then as I read through and continued, it all made sense to me.
One of my favorite parts is definitely when he decides to give his son the space to grow into his own person and that Victoria gives him a self-realization. His growth throughout the story is just so good.
If you like spicy books and getting all the right feelings alongside with the characters (especially chapter 40😈), this one is for you! It can be read as a standalone as this one is Nr. 3 in the series. You won't regret it!
Thank you again, I really enjoyed this book 💛

Victoria working on a island resort as a Pilates instructor finds out her latest hookup has found someone new and is jet setting somewhere new via social media. Finding herself at the resort bar she spots his dad and vows to tell him exactly what kind of douche bag his son is. That is until she sees the sadness in Ben’s eyes. Suddenly she’s having a fling with hot older Ben, travelling by helicopter and having the hottest sex of her life. It would be perfect if she had told him exactly who she was and now there is an expiration date to the whole thing.
I absolutely loved Ben, a widowed man that has spent his life in control and trying to give his son the life he thinks he should have. Ben’s growth through this book was great to see and how he relinquished his narrow views to finally allowing himself to live and find love.
Vic grew on me, there were several times I wanted to shake her and tell her to grow up and get over herself but she needed to go through it all to grow up as a person and find out what she really wanted for herself and find her own worth.
The two of them together was an instant attraction and the spice was perfect, they both made each other grow sometimes without realising until they nearly lost it and it was great to read the FMC do some of the grovelling to get her man.
This was my first read by Lore and now I’ve devoured it I will definitely be going through the rest of the series!

I like the ex’s dad trope, it’s taboo and fun, but not in a terrible way. Savage Lover does have some darker content, it has scenes that depict bdsm and dnc, some of the kink scenes are not realistic, but this is a work of fiction. Also, in real life, while these scenes may occur, the Dom and sub will have negotiated everything beforehand, and Vic has a safeword throughout. The scenes where they explore their sexuality are intense and intimate, they also show Ben and Victoria’s willingness to be vulnerable with each other in order to make their relationship and dynamic work.
I love Victoria, she’s been repeatedly let down by men but she’s a fighter and doesn’t quit. Still, it is hard for her to trust and be confident in herself. Her relationship with Ben opens up a whole new world for her. As it does for Ben, he already needs and loves control. Being her Dom comes easily, but Vic realizes she needs something more. There is something seriously decadent and dark about primal play that I just love. It heightens the intimacy and sexual tension between Ben and Vic. There are outside forces that cause problems, but in the end they do get their HFN.

This was a really fun and spicy book. I appreciate that the drama seems plausible and not easily fixable or silly. It's not a simply miscommunication trope, it's something that was unexpected and spiraled with no actual easy way out, which is nice to see in a book. The book has an actual real feel to it even though it's a total standard fictional romance plot, it was written in a way that makes it feel like it could happen.
I enjoyed both characters and their development was really satisfying. Ben did frustrate me a bit with his behavior, especially the harping on both the age gap and no college thing. That part felt like overkill but overall I liked him a lot. The supportive characters were really nice as well, I would've liked to see more of Sally as she seemed fun.
The spice.....🥵 Lore always knows how to wrote spice. Literally no notes. I loved it entirely.
Overall I love this book. I don't love the name for multiple reason but largely because it doesn't seem to even fit the characters well. But otherwise this is a great book. I always look forward to Lore's stories.

OMG, I AM SPEECHLESS!
Lore really outdone herself with this one, more spice, more drama and I couldn’t put it down. First chapter and we are already setting up sweet revenge, say less! I feel like each book in this series just kept getting better and spicer. I had to finish in it in a day because I needed to read when the shoe finally drops, iykyk and when it did the gasp I gasped, I could never imagine😂
I loved how I could get lost in this book, it was able to come to life because it was detailed and a perfect duet. Nothing was repeated nor did I ever lose interest through out the book. I was so mad when I got the end of chapter thirty-four and then I read through the epilogue, thank god she didn’t leave us hanging! Ugh, this book was good and I will definitely be re-reading it over the summer, it is a perfect summer read.
I recommend this book for all my spicy romance lovers, you will not be disappointed and this is technically part of a series but, you can read it as a stand alone. To say I am excited for the next book would be an understatement!

Savage Lover is a great read! I would recommend reading this book or adding it to your TBR. 18+
Please look up trigger warning if you have triggers.
I really enjoyed reading this book. It takes you on a rollercoaster ride of emotions it's Spicy, romantic and heartbreaking. It also has some unexpected twists, as well as some valuable life lessons.
Victoria's character is relatable as in she is a young woman not really confident, very indecisive, and has relationship issues. One of the guy's that was suppose to meet up with her stands her up. Later she runs into his father. Her plan was to go give him a piece of her mind but things don't go as planned.
Ben is a strong character that is use to being in control, and is set in his ways. Not only does he like being in charge of his employs, he likes to try to control his son's life as well.
Will Victoria ever find true love and happiness? Will Ben or his son ever change their way's? Guess you will have to read and find out for yourself!
This is the first book I've read by this author and I can't wait to get my hands on more.

Savage Lover is the second installment in the Off Limit Lovers series. Each book in the series is a stand alone with a shared world, easily read in any order. Definitely check out the trigger warnings if you have sensitivities, however, keep in mind the trigger warnings will give some spoilers.
This was my first read by Lore Townsend, and I was not disappointed. I found the story line well written and entertaining with a pleasant mix of super spicy scenes and sweet and uplifting moments. Like most vacations, there is a ton of things crammed into a short amount of time in this book, and things move along quickly. Instead of being overwhelming, this just made for a complete and comprehensive story. I loved both Ben and Victoria, appreciating each individuals self awareness journeys as well as their combined, and unexpected chemistry.
Overall I found this to be an entertaining, sweet and spicy beach quick beach read, that I would recommend to readers that enjoy spicy power play, age gap and forbidden romance.

This was a fun read. Lore likes her forbidden tropes and this one is son’s ex-girlfriend, layered with age gap! Like the other books in the series Savage Lover is set on Faraday Island at The Sands resort. This one follows Ben, the ultra-controlled attorney who only really comes to the island for vacations. On this vacation he meets Victoria, a 23-year-old Pilates instructor who is trying to figure her life out. They both assume this is a fling but it continues and grows.
But remember she’s his son’s ex, right? He doesn’t know that and she is afraid to tell him. Scandal! Oh and they are like 20 years apart in age, so…Scandal!
In the first spicy scene it sets up like BDSM and I was a little blah blah blah on that, but it turns out it is primal play!! And So.Much.Fun. I didn’t know I was into that until now. Thanks, Lore!
This is a great beach/vacation read or palate cleanser between darker or more alpha-male books. This alpha melts and it is lovely. Give it a read!

Next owner of White Sands has his own romantic adventure - this time it is Ben.
Ben and Victoria start off from the beginning not really communicating. She walks up to give him a piece of her mind and can't when she sees the look on his face.
I loved the primal nature that comes alive between them. It is so raw and dark but so perfect for them.
Her previous relationship with his son is a cloud hanging over the relationship that you know will storm down on top of them at some point. As the story went along, I started to dread the impending face off. I knew it was coming and expected it would be horrible. What happened was what I didn't imagine. The way the pieces got picked up also surprised me. It was perfect.
A satisfying story in the white sands world. Get some great time with old characters in this one as well.
Looking forward to traveling back again for more.

Savage Lover is book 3 of the standalone series Off Limits Lovers a spicy romance series that follow billionaire owners of The White Sand Resort and their forbidden love stories.
This was the first of this series that I have read but I will definitely be going back to read the others, Lore has done a fantastic with the storyline/plot and the characters, I enjoyed there were some twists and turns and the personal growth of the characters, the book flowed perfectly. The chemistry between Ben and Victoria was burning and the spicy scenes were steaming was a bonus.
Don’t forget to check the TW/CW as some scenes/topics may not be for everyone.

Book is officially out. But I did receive it as an arc.
Also let me state I have not yet read the other two part of the series! After reading this part! I have to add it to my TBR!
It can be read as a standalone!
I loved Ben and Victorias relationship. It was still cute,daring and spicy. And “THE SPICE SCENES”🔥🔥🔥 I liked them all that I couldn’t pick one.
The growth between the two had me needing to know what was gonna happen between them.
Honestly I couldn’t wait until the secret came out!
It’s upsetting the it took me long to finish because of adulthood. But I finally got it done.
This was such a good book! That I need to go back and read the other. 🥰🥰 The last part where you sneak a trope for the next book!! 😜 CANT WAIT!

❤️ARC REVIEW❤️
Savage Lover : Lore Townsend
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/5
This book right here had all the spice. Ben had me shocked at how kinky he truly is. It’s always the broody ones that surprise you. Victoria has a smart mouth that just drew me in from the beginning. I loved her character from the beginning.
I have to admit Ben is probably my favorite off limits man. His character growth through the book was amazing to witness. I’m glad he finally understood he needed to give his son space to grow as a person.
If you need a good spicy read then this is for you. It is book three in the series and I honestly think you can read them as standalone but I feel they are so much better read in order. I highly recommend this book. (It was my favorite in the series so far.)

Words that come to mind when thinking about this book are dark, chaotic, dangerous, and passionate. The chemistry between Ben and Victoria is like a sinful recklessness that both thrills and scares them in equal measure.
I would like to note that I am still mad at Ben for the NY situation. Ben knows what he did, and if you read the book, you'll know too.
The spice level in Savage Lover is over the top (OTT), and the kink might not be for everyone, so definitely check the trigger warnings before diving in. This book is a spicy, angsty erotic romance that explores themes of control, desire, and the chaos of forbidden love.
Ben and Victoria's story is an emotionally addictive mess that will sweep you along as they navigate their intense, complicated relationship.
