UnBreak Me
Esther has only craved to be loved by one man, the Wolfe who hides behind his broken ice blue eyes.
Unfortunately, the wild man she craves has desires that she doesn’t feel able to fill. These desires will destroy her if she allows them.
Wolfe, the road captain for the Savage Beast MC, is known for his ruthlessness. The forty-year-old has demons that haunt the beast inside of him.

Two souls searching for a way to find acceptance, love, and healing in physical pleasures. Both lost. One the devil. One a fallen angel. When they finally give in to their lust, their love blossoms like neither imagined possible.

4 “ Princess & Demon slayer “ stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I was eagerly waiting for Wolfe & Esther’s story. It did not disappoint. They both had a painful past. You could see how broken they were and it was beautiful to watch them overcome their fears and come out stronger as individuals and as a pair too. They both made mistakes and you could understand why they did that.
Their story started when they hooked up two years ago but it didn’t work because of Wolfe’s sexual desires even though they loved each other, it wasn’t what Esther wanted and I could see the reason why. Fast forward two years later, they come together because of their circumstances.
They both were abused when they were kids which is a very serious issue and after learning in detail about their past, you could see why they were so broken and why they both used sex as a coping mechanism. Even because of these circumstances you could feel their love for each other, their chemistry as well. It was a very tough journey but they did heal each other. They realised their mistakes with each other and managed to get their head out their asses.
Some might think that their way of leading their adult life was wrong or how is it even possible that Esther would treat herself after going through what she did but I think everyone has their own way of dealing with their past and there is no right or wrong way.
Mamba played a crucial role in helping them fix their issues. Although he had his own pain to deal with. I loved the tidbits in his life too. He was a good friend to both of them.
Along with romance, this story was action packed, their was suspense and I also enjoyed the crossover with the Zanetti family. Their was steam which I have come to expect from Hayley’s books. She writes sex scenes like no other with a heavy dose of dirty talk.
The only reason I deducted a star from my rating was because I think Esther put up with a little too much in the beginning and should have stood up for herself sooner but at the same time it also shows her strength that she wasn’t completely broken and realised her worth albeit a little late. Still, overall I am happy with where this series is going. I also enjoyed the short story of Mamba aka Justin and happy that he got his happy ending too.
If you guys love MC romance novels, then definitely read this series and trust me you guys won’t regret it. This author is really talented and can write one yummy Alpha bad boy hero and strong women who love and fight for them. ♥️

1 ⭐- Ugh! Didn't like it or triggers or pet peeve!
=======================================
==> Cringe worthy! The sex scenes disgusted me and all the characters were abused in childhood and have issues that according to the author lead them to have a fucked up sex life. Yuck.

He snorts. “Bitch you started this shit storm, you atone for your fucking actions. Better call in and take vacation or quit, I don’t really give a fuck but your freedom, for the time being, is now over.”
I don’t know if this is truly what I want with Esther anymore. However, I know that I need this. Being monogamous, just the two of us, isn’t something that I’m sure I’m capable of being.
I had no fucking clue what she even liked, hell she could be a vegetarian for all I know. Which would make this awkward as fuck, as if it isn’t already.
“Any special requests for you, Wolfe?” Gavino asks. I open my mouth to tell him that I’m not interested in his women. “You’ll be insulting me if you don’t take an offered gift,” he explains. Fuck. “Black hair,” I grunt. Fuck, I’m such a fucking asshole.
Her words of pleasure and satisfaction cause my cock to twitch. She turns and we follow behind her into the sitting room.
Fuck me. She holds her hand out to me. I take a step toward her, slipping my palm into hers and I follow behind her, like the goddamn asshole that I am.
My phone doesn’t ring. For the first day since he left, he doesn’t call me.
More quotes....
Tears prick my eyes, and something ugly enters my mind, something I’ve tried to forget, my stomach rolls.
I got at least ten women in there who will do what I want, the way I want it, no questions asked. I don’t need to waste my time on some cunt from town, on someone who won’t be my ride-or-die.
It’s been a year since we were together, a year since he broke my heart.
When I was with Raff, I tried so hard to keep him, to make him happy. I fucked and sucked him in the common bar of the Savage Beast clubhouse, and I would have continued to do it had he not wanted to bring in another person or persons. I would have done almost anything he asked of me.
I can’t seem to fuck her out of my system, no matter how many whores I come inside of, Esther is always there.
Why can’t I take her, just her, as she is? Why do I need to see another man inside of her, why do I need to watch? Why do I need this shit so goddamn bad? Fuck.
I wonder, offhandedly, if I could keep her for myself. I know she’d play my games, she’d fulfill my desires, she wouldn’t have a choice.
My heart slams against my chest when I realize that this voice does not belong to Raff.
“He’s going to do whatever the fuck I tell him to do to you, you’re going to enjoy that aren’t you, Esther?” Raff growls.
“You ain’t my Old Lady,” Raff announces.
“I don’t trust your ass, not even for a goddamn second. I can’t brand a bitch that I don’t trust. I’ll fuck you, we’ll fuck you, but that don’t mean shit for now. All that means is you’re going to come, nothing else.”
He doesn’t love me, he probably never did. It’s completely one-sided and now he’s going to use my body as he sees fit.
Anger fills me at their callous words. They don’t care about me, either of them.
“She’s a hot piece, brother. Not a hardship to do this for you,” Mamba chuckles into the dark room.
I know she loves me, and I’m exploiting that by getting what I want, the way I want it. I know she’s not going anywhere, she’ll be here and do what I want until she breaks.
“You loved me when you were fucking all of those Sinister Skulls members?” he asks sharply.
“Did you still love me when you fucked all those whores?” I sweetly ask as I climb over his hips, straddling his thighs and look down at him.
“You’re too fuckin’ skinny. I like to fuck a woman, not a stick figure. I was afraid we’d split you in half last night, Esther. Eat a goddamn burger,” he growls before he walks out of the bedroom, slamming the door behind him.
“It looks like this, Esther. It looks exactly like this. It looks like you, me, and someone else. Maybe Mamba, maybe not. But Princess, that’s what it looks like. I don’t know how to be any other way, not for long periods of time.”
He chuckles. “Yeah, but fucking her with Mamba? How you gonna brand her with that shit goin’ down?” “Who said I was branding her?” I lie.
“I can do whatever I want, Esther. You’re mine and you ain’t goin’ anywhere, Princess. I want to whore you out to my club, I will. I want to ignore your mouth for anything other than sucking my dick, I will. You won’t say shit either, because you’re the one who fucked up, not me.”
He snorts, a slow smile spreading on his lips. “I’m capable of it. Just not with you, not with some bitch that’s so goddamn desperate she’d let her body be used the way you have.”
She shakes her head. “I can’t go back to teaching. I quit with zero notice. I don’t have anything else that I’m really good at except fucking. Now that I’ve had both you and Mamba, I figure the guys would like another whore that didn’t have a problem with anal.” She shrugs.
“You’re not a man. You’re the lowest level of shit I’ve ever seen,” Mamba sneers.

I really liked the tiny novella at the end for Mamba...would have liked it as a full length novel better. It promised to be not quite as fucked up as the first 2 novels XD
Like the first book in the series...this is not for the faint of heart. But this H is a solid fucking catch in comparison to the first H.

This one was a really emotional read. A gritty MC read with plenty of action and hot sex but also very dark and emotion packed backstories that I loved. Definitely recommend.

Hayley Faiman's latest installment of the Savage Beast MC is UnBreak Me and it is phenomenal!
Esther and Wolfe. Two very damaged people that should never be together but are perfect for one another. This couple had to wade through a lot of heartache, drama, and self loathing to try to find what they needed from each other. What made me upset so much with Wolfe is he had a certain lifestyle that he wanted Esther to adapt to. When she wouldn't then he blamed her for not being what he needed. This was so selfish on his part and that had so many ramifications for Esther.
Esther needed serious help. She placed her self worth on the opinion and actions of Wolfe. This damaged woman fell in love with a damaged man and didn't have the confidence or mental stability to deal with their relationship. There were times I don't know who was most broken with these characters.
To appreciate this book and actually this series you have to understand the writing style of this author. She pushes you into uncomfortable emotions where you flip flop to hating and loving these characters. Never have I been so angry or so drawn in by a series. But regardless of my stomach bottoming out or my heart skipping a beat I can never stop reading.

I love reading this author's books, but I find it hard to read this novel. Esther and Wolfe are both individuals' that were sexual abuse as children and continue to lead a terrible one night stands with anyone. They also involve other people in their sexual deprived relationship. I didn't feel that they could every commit to deep one to one relationship. These two are too broken to have a healthy sexual marriage. I had hope that this second book of the Savage Beast MC would be more like the first novel. I hope that Dragon the president of the MC will be the next book?

Damaged Souls
Wolfe and Esther both had abusive childhood. Wolfe thinks he is not good enough for her and uses her and destroys her heart. Esther keeps taking everything he dishes because she love him.
Esther never had a backbone and never stood up for herself more than 5 seconds so that is the reason I can't give this book 4 stars.

“They aren’t always faithful. Would it be the end if he did something with someone else? Or just the fact that he forbids you from doing the same thing?” she asks.
He snorts. “Bitch you started this shit storm, you atone for your fucking actions. Better call in and take vacation or quit, I don’t really give a fuck but your freedom, for the time being, is now over.”
Makes her leave her job and then says she either becomes a club whore or can’t stay at the club anymore ... (dragon said that but still he agreed)
Like where the fuck is the love ? Cause he was blowing smoke up her arse.
I feel like Esther should have put up more of a fight in the beginning with his shit

Omg ! What a great story.I am really loving this series and Esther and Raff 's/Wolfe's story was so heartfelt and totally heart wrenching I wanted to cry time and time again and my heart actually hurt for all the hurt and pain that both Raff and Esther had to endure.This is the type of book that pushes your limits and it is a story that takes you totally out of your comfort zone.
This story had so much going on that I was glued to the pages the entire time from beginning to end.The story was filled with so much sex,drama, suspense,and surprises and so much more.We loved it! I have to say that this story kept me on edge the entire time.The story is not for the faint of heart that is for sure and it is very dark and graphic and may have triggers for others.
I honestly have to say that after reading this story I was left reeling and my emotions were all over the place and I had to remind myself that this was a book of fiction because I just could not understand how Esther could be with a man like Raff/Wolfe that would cause you to spiral so out of control to the point that you feel like you have no self worth left and that you feel your only choice left to you is to become a whore to a club full of men and that the man who claims to love you would even allow that to happen in the first place! WTH!
I realized that Esther past played a big part in the way she is and the decisions she makes and Raff/Wolfe just happens to be her drug of choice and that she just can let go of but, that women was on a path of self destruction and in reality so was Wolfe.
Esther for me was a puzzle as I could not understand how she could be a teacher and outside of work be someone totally different.The women was broken and in pain and she totally lost her mind when it came to loving Wolfe and the lengths she was willing to go to keep him and what she was willing to endure to keep him to the point it would even cause her more pain.
Wolfe is a character that you want to hate but just can't because underneath all that pain and suffering and the demons he carries around him deep down he was a man capable of loving with one's whole heart if only he would put his demons to rest.Time and time again I wanted to kick his butt for the pain he caused Esther and the things he said to her and the way he treated her because all along it was obvious to all how much he did love her.Let's just say I was thinking out loud some really bad curse words to call him more that a few times throughout the story. lol
Esther and Raff are just super hot together! The sexual content was highly erotic and just kept getting hotter and hotter and this couple were definitely making up for lost time.Holy friggin Fanning ! And Mamba being involved made things even more intense and even hotter even if it was only for a brief time!
All and All in the end these two were made for each other who accepted each others faults and all the broken pieces that made them who they had become and maybe just maybe it takes two lost souls to heal one another.Perhaps love and acceptance will do the trick.
I loved the story from beginning to end .I loved how determined Raff was to get back the women he loves.The story was about healing ,love and betrayals and exacting vengeance and was full with tons of drama and suspense but, how one faithful night put things in perspective for both characters making them realize that they finally had to lay their demons to rest in order to have a future whether it together or apart. I loved this cast of characters and I have to say Mamba became one of my favorite characters.All these thing made it an engaging story as well as an amazing read for us that kept us on edge the entire time.
Haley is one of my favorite story tellers and for me and has become a author on my auto buy list as she never disappoints.One of the other things I just love about her is she takes the time to interact with her fans as much as she can which makes me just love her more as she is just and awesome storyteller.
Another amazing tale from cover to cover!
Recommend to read to all who like very dark and edgy romances !

I have read a lot of Hayley Faiman books and she writes some really unrepentant, unapologetic assholes. I felt like I knew what I was in for when I started Unbreak Me. This book caught me completely unaware. I found myself crying while lying in bed in the dark with only the light of my iPad illuminating my face. I was apparently crying hard enough to wake up my husband who of course wanted to fix what is wrong with me. All I wanted him to do is go away so I can keep reading.
On the surface, I have nothing in common with Esther. She lives a way wilder life than I do and I have never been a teacher or been affiliated with any MCs. What we have in common is the raw feelings of inadequacy. When you have been told you won’t amount to anything or are worthless, you sometimes end up believing the words even as you deny them. When Esther is feeling all of these and is breaking, I felt it in my soul.
This book in some ways is hard to read. The events are hard to imagine happening to any person. I would read it with caution. For me, it was an emotional journey.

Boy this was a hard book to like! Watching two extremely broken and wounded people try and navigate a relationship is painful and often rage inducing. The lengths they went to fighting their feelings, trying to forget the other and hurt each other was horrible. I’ve heard the saying….”hurt people, hurt people” but this was extreme.
I love a raw MC read. I truly love the fearless grit with which this author writes her books. She is phenomenal at taking me to a place that I think a true MC life lives. Is it accurate? Who knows and I don’t care. It’s engaging and filthy.
This book won’t be for everyone. It has a lot of sexual trauma and socially unacceptable behavior, but it is a well written and gripping book.

This book was like riding a roller coaster with a blindfold on. There were so many twists and turns. You never knew what to expect. But it was one thrilling ride that I absolutely loved every second of.
At first I hated Wolfe. I mean who treats someone like that? Then I was I was totally smitten with him and all of his alpha hotness, then the next minute I wanted Esther to just walk away, find someone better for herself. Then I realized that there was no one better for her than Wolfe. (See roller coaster).
Then Hayley had to throw in Mamba. And well, let’s face it, he was swoony from the start. He was all gruff and bad boy, but he had a softer side. He proved it was possible to be tough and caring. I actually wanted Esther to end up with him when Wolfe was at his worst. BUT... Haley wouldn’t let her heroine walk away from the man she was destined for!
There were so many characters that Hayley introduced in this second volume of this series. At one point I didn’t know who to trust, and I loved it. It kept me on my toes and flipping pages as quickly as I could to see what would happen next.
This series just keeps getting better, and I can’t wait to see who’s story we get next, because believe me, there are some wild stories getting ready to come out!

Yikes...this one had me cringing, crying and cheering all at the same time and although it definitely won't be everyone's cup of tea, it was in-your-face brutal and honest right from the get-go.
Esther and Raff are both sad survivors of childhood abuse and when they find each other for the first time, they are both too messed up and damaged to be anything but bad news for each other. What follows is a years long game of cat and mouse and it takes a whole lot of soul searching and bad things happening before they get their act together. Read if you can handle much brutality, mental and physical abuse and a very intense love story.

I was kind of sad about this book too. Esther and Wolfe are two really broken characters. It takes a Esther a long time to kind of snap out of it I guess in a sense. She's way too hung up on trying to please Wolfe and he doesn't deserve it in my opinion. She compromises too much of who she is and what she had set for herself as rules. She allowed him to change the fundamental principles on which she set to heal herself. I get that he comes from a troubled background as well however in him doing that he couldn't possibly love her. I get the Happy ever after that came with the story. It's just highly unrealistic because he did too much wrong that there was no way for the story to be redeemed. I don't feel it was redeemed because I don't think he jumped through enough hoops for it to even out and justify the problems that were created in the book. Just came off as another doormat female character.

An Intensely Emotional, Poignant Portrayal of Love and Second Chances...
Sometimes there are things in life, horribly evil events, that change us irrevocably. Sinister deeds that alter the very fiber of our beings so drastically that we scarcely recognize our own reflections, or know our own minds and hearts. This tenet of human fragility is the very heart of Hailey Faiman's book, "Unbreak Me", an exemplary heartfelt look at the struggles of being physically damaged and emotionally scarred.
This second installment of Faimain's Savage Beasts MC series continues, almost in parallel with the first, but from the viewpoint of Wolfe and Esther. Wolfe being the guarded, emotionally closed off road captain of the MC. A man who endured monstrous abuse as a child at the hands of his own parents; abuse that haunts and affects him forty years later, and prevents him from functioning beyond the violent, unbridled life of the MC brotherhood. Leaving him unable to cope in relationships without the physical involvement of trusted brother, Mamba. And Esther, an equally damaged young woman, a woman abused horribly in her childhood and raised with no self worth beyond what she can sexually offer men. A woman lost to her trauma and desperately longing for a life filled with happiness and love; a life she doesn't fully believe she deserves.
What follows is an intensely emotional exploration of what it takes to repair the demons of one's past. A revelatory diary of sorts unveiling how often in life, it takes someone as damaged as we are to see us, to truly see down to the very meat of our souls. How sometimes it takes someone who has been violently, horrifically altered in the same way to help heal those very broken parts, and fully understand how the pieces need to fit back together. And it is a beautiful, powerfully poignant portrayal of love, personal growth, and second chances at happiness.
I only wish Esther's part in it weren't quite so stunted. I wish Faiman had afforded us a more in depth view of Esther's demons as she does with Wolfe's, as it would have bridged the gap to the final concluding events. As it stands you feel as though you are missing a vital piece if dialog and interaction between the two, and while you understand how it steers toward the epic conclusion, you are left feeling a bit empty over the lack of detail and care afforded to Esther's part as compared to the rest of the book, ultimately leaving you yearning for just a bit more.
Additionally, as with the first book in this series, the author creates a brutal story world, one that does not romanticize what this club and the brothers within it represent, so be warned, this book is violent, containing brutal scenes of sexual assault, abuse, violence, and other scenarios some may find deeply disturbing or unsettling. And as I said in my earlier review, this series is NOT for the faint of heart or easily offended. However as with the others, if you can stay the course, and embrace all that unfolds before you on the page, you will be richly rewarded with a phenomenal story of redemption and love that will haunt your dreams and flood your heart with joy.

I have to be 100 percent honest here, after finishing the first book UnScrew Me, I couldn't wait for this book. But as the same time I feel like I have been waiting forever for this book, even though its just been a few months since the first book came out. So I kind of forgot what was happening in this series. But luckily these two books tie together quickly and I was able to remember what was happening in this series.
Where oh where do I start with this review?.....
I wanted to absolutely fall head over heels in love with this book and these characters. We meet both Wolfe and Esther in the first book. I really wanted to love Esther and Raff, aka Wolfe, in this book. But both characters are carrying major demons on their shoulders from their childhoods, which lets be honest here does not give them the excuse to act like they did.
There were points in this book where I wanted to scream at my kindle and just be done with it. There were points in this book I couldn't believe how Wolfe was treating Esther. And all I wanted to do was jump in the book and give him a quick swift kick in the arse. There were points in the book where I couldn't stand Esther and almost felt sorry for her, but at the same time I couldn't understand why she would let a man treat her that way. And there were points where I almost felt like neither of them deserved each other or anyone else for that matter.
And than of course Mrs. Faiman had to go and throw Mamba into the equation. The man who right off the bat came off a bit gruff, but at the same time was understanding, kind, gentle. And you just wanted to scream at the kindle going, "Yes Esther.... Yes.... Yes.... Yes.... Choose Mamba, he's the one you need to be with." But than you realize that Mrs. Faiman has a plan with all of this.
I will admit that I did enjoy this book even though there were some points I wanted to give up on it. And as I mentioned above even though it had been a few months since the first book came out, I had almost forgotten what had been happening in this series. But luckily Mrs. Faiman ties it all together fairly quickly in this book and I could remember what had happend in the first book.
I'm giving this book 4 Stars out of 5!!!

Oh WOW. This is one definitely not for the safe brigade. It was so much darker and grittier than the first book in the series and that is saying something. Even I had a problem for the first part of the book and found myself stopping and starting reading. Some things were so hard to take in and actually believe a woman would put herself though what Esther did.
In the first book Esther came across as a go getter and a ball buster, but here she was so different and a bit of a doormat in parts. Then I read deeper and found out about her past and her reason for her lack of self-worth.
Wolfe was no better by letting his dark past own his could be bright future. He’d never had a reason to be any different until Esther came into his life. But it took a lot for this hot alpha dude to come to the realisation what he could loose until he took action. And whoa does he take action, I was gobsmacked at what violence he undertook.
The connection between Wolfe and Esther was hard to establish for the first half of the book which is the part I struggled with as I couldn’t ‘get’ why these two were pulled towards each other. Both their pasts could be trigger for some people as abuse is heavily described. Also ‘cheating’ or sex with other people (you’ll get that part when/if you read this) could have others loathing this book. But if, like me you are able to unravel the top layer of this story line and dig dip (it took a while to be honest) then the ending was such a reward to be given after all this pair had gone through.
Although I wanted to hate Mamba, he played his part to bring this couple together. Hard to understand at first but I got there. I loved his novella at the end of this book. I would have loved more about him and Karma though. Karma was such an enigma and obviously mental health had a part to play in that but was never explored in depth. I feel that Mamba should have got his own full book where this could have been covered but I guess by reading this book the reader would know what had already happened to him.
If you are into a dark, depraved, WTF MC read then this is for you. If you like your MC on the sweet side then maybe not or why not take a chance on the wild side? Overall an enjoyable but sometimes with my eyes squinted, this was a four-star read for me.

3.5 Stars This one was Tough
Hayley Faiman's characters have me all over the board with how I feel about them. I love one and then hate the next. They all have the same M.O., to find a woman and make her his, however they have different ways of going about it, or different ways of effed up-ness. Wolfe is no exception.
Right off the bat I didn't like this guy or our leading lady. They had some major problems they've been sweeping under the rug for a long time. Making her super desperate and him super mean. Downright ugly. I like a guy that's a little rough on the outside and a big teddy bear on the inside, but this guy was over the top douche.
"My past has once again ruined my future."
The mantra of these two for most of the book. They have problems, however let them totally escalate before doing something about them. While I'm all for an angsty book, this was just irritating page after page.
"She hasn't lived a life of self-destruction after her own parents destroyed her as a child."
Maybe she has? He wouldn't know because he's too busy treating her horribly constantly and unfortunately, she thinks she deserves it. There is zero communication with these two, only misunderstandings and fighting.
"I want to be held captive by him, I'm that depraved, that desperate and needy that I don't even care what he does to me-as long as I'm his."
This is what I had a hard time reading past. This constant lack self-worth and letting people treat her like absolute crap. I know it's out there in real life, however I had a hard time wrapping my head around it page after page. It made the sex scenes sad rather than sexy. I wanted her to walk away from the whole lot of them and take care of herself.
The book is well written, and Wolfe is not one of my favs in this new series so far. Along with these two, we are involved with all the other Brothers and Old ladies of the club and of course, some sort of club drama, a la Hayley Faiman, to keep things interesting. Mamba's book is up next and like everybody else, he's got some baggage to take care of before he claims a woman. I liked him in this book, so it’ll be interested to see how his story unfolds.

Esther Reynolds has been in love with Raff for as long as she can remember but when she finally feels the pain of rejection from him she turns to his enemy, Lucky, who runs the Sinister Skulls. Unfortunately for Esther life with Lucky is not easy and she is constantly beat by him.
Raff "Wolfe" is part of the Savage Beasts MC and has always had feelings for Esther but Raff refuses to enter into a relationship with anyone which pushed her away. Now Raff knows he has to protect Esther and will do what it takes to keep her safe although he is still not willing to give her his heart.
As Raff and Esther try to figure things out they are assisted by Mamba who can see the love the two have for each other even of they refuse to acknowledge it.
But the MC world can be dangerous and will Esther get caught in the middle?
This was a great book about trying to deal with your demons before they ruin any chance of happiness and a future you deserve.
I felt bad for Esther with feeling rejected by Raff so she turned to Lucky and that was just not good as she was abused by him so badly. As we gradually learn about Esther's past we see how broken she is and you can understand her need to feel wanted and loved.
Raff was much more complex as it was obvious he had so many feelings for Esther but he just couldn't get his head around being in a relationship. At first I thought he was just being a jerk but then as I learned more about his past things began to make much more sense and my heart broke for him. I was confused about his need to have Mamba involved and then I loved when he began to get jealous and he finally realized how much he cared about Esther.
Yet I was also completely shocked at one point about the fact that Raff wasn't claiming Esther and where she was going to end up because of it. I was so mad at Raff!!
I liked Mamba and I understood why he really wanted to help Esther and Raff and I understood why he kept things with Karma on the quiet side. I never saw the things with that coming and I was so thankful for Bones.
The end was totally intense and I was shocked at what Mamba had to do but I hope the next book brings him some happiness!!
I was thankful Raff finally got his act together at the end!!

I'm not even sure how I should write this review to be honest, as it feels like UnBreak Me feels like a totally different book to me than I'm used to from the brilliant Hayley Faiman. And yet, I could be wrong, since it feels like it's been forever since I've read the last book either. The third option is that she messed with my heart & emotions so badly that I'm fried, which probably the most likely scenario so I'm apologizing now for what will probably be a confusing review. It's the story of two very damaged people, Esther & Wolfe, who have serious demons, and those demons have led them on a journey that really (insert f-word here) me up while reading. He's part of the Savage Beast MC, and even his brothers are aware of how badly he messed up, and trust me, I wanted to set him on fire. And how to explain her...she's complicated. I could understand where she was coming from at first, then some of her decisions were bad, then her spine disappeared, next her crippled me, followed by wanting to give her a big high five, back to almost ready to slap some sense into her again. Pretty sure I needed valium while reading this story as I ran the table of emotions in a short time. And Wolfe, while a tortured soul for real, I really spent a great deal of time wanting to hurt him. So if you truly want to see the brilliance of Ms. Faiman, then read this story because by the end of UnBreak Me, you will have absolutely no doubt about it, and I CANNOT WAIT for more of this series! HIGHLY HIGHLY HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

Oh man, Hayley outdid herself with this one. This was a tough one to read. My heart absolutely broke with Esther and Wolfe's story. Two people who went through hell as children are drawn to each other, addicted and obsessed with each other.
Esther walked away from Wolfe two years ago after he asked her for more than she was willing to give him. She has been heartbroken since and is now would do anything he wanted to be with him again. When it comes down to it, will she cave and give him whatever she wants? Will her heart survive? Will she be able to receive the same love and loyalty from him that she has for him?
Wolfe wants things that he isn't willing to give up. Esther walked away from him and he doesn't trust her not to do it again. He is going to make her do whatever he wants and possibly trust her again. He never stopped loving her but he knows that it could be the end of her. The more she agrees to the more conflicting emotions arise inside of him. Will he be able to put his demons to rest? Will he push Esther to far? Will he lose her for good this time?
No joke this heart broke me. I get Wolfe has been through a lot but there are things about Esther he doesn't know and it broke my heart with how everything played out. Wolfe redeems himself eventually to me but is it too late for Esther? Danger lurks, words are thrown like knives to the heart, trust is loss and so much more. This series is one that is becoming a favorite and I can't wait to see what is next!!

Esther Reynolds has been tempted but is it enough. Raff “Wolfe” Garcia doesn’t apologize for what he wants. Mamba seems to be a man of reason. He may be secondary but that makes him no less important to what is going on with Esther and Wolfe.
The men in this club are hard but they’re even harder on their women. They seem to have respect for each other but it doesn’t seem to be the same for the women – unless they are in the right circle. Language is rough and very blunt – just like the men that are a part of the Savage Beast MC.
Part of what had me turning the pages was how much my heart hurt for Esther. She gives us a small glimpse of what’s going on in her head but if you don’t keep reading you may miss something important. The story is very raw and more like what some people interpret a true MC to be like. I had a feeling of waiting for a shoe to drop and how could I stop reading? You want it to be a happy ending but with this group of men and what they do can it ever truly be? But don’t stop at the end of their story because you might miss the author’s treat. But I’m left with the question, “what’s next?”
Our author made this a standalone and if you haven’t read Unscrew Me than you should feel lucky. To me, this book should have come first because of Silver and Presley’s story. This story seemed more of their beginning than a follow up to what happened in the first book. It would also be tough to read the stories side by side. It’s a great way to catch up if you’re a book behind.
I voluntarily reviewed a copy of this book.

(4 stars)
The second book in the Savage Beasts MC series gives us Esther and Raff/Wolfe's story. We saw them both in book one and knew there was history but not what that history was. After getting to see what happened, the story jumps 2 years and runs alongside book one's couple; Silver and Presley getting together. All Esther wants is Raff, she will do anything to be with him, and does so even though what he wants makes her miserable. In turn, seeing Esther doing as he requested doesn't quite have the same effect Raff thought it would. Why does the fact that it's Esther make him jealous and want to keep her all to himself, something he said he would never do? Will it be too late for Raff to repair the damage he has caused when a rival decides the answer to his own problems is Esther?
For quite a long time I really didn't like Raff in this book. The way he treated Esther was pretty crappy and then despite his reasons for doing it, Mamba wasn't much better, and it still felt more, not forced exactly but a "no other option" kind of thing. I'm not sure how I feel about a lot of it, and although I love this author's work, this one felt a little different and really was tough to enjoy at times. I loved the little short story at the end though, but I won't say who its about because you need to read this first. I have no clue who will be next in this series but I'll certainly be looking out for it and I give UnBreak Me 4 stars.

4 Stars!
Hayley Faiman is my rule breaker, line crosser and boundary slayer in every single way that there is. I shouldn't be a fan of her books with my reading history but there's something about this chick's words that keeps drawing me in and keeps me coming back every time.
The Savage Beast MC series is back with it's next book and if you thought book one was super tough and brutal then you have no idea what lies ahead with this one.
UnBreak Me was a... savage romance with no beautifuland so much ugly yet by the end I found myself rooting for them. Hard to read and digest in moments. Hard to understand and feel anything for them in others. Esther and Wolfe made me want to scream, run for the hills, and yank out my hair yet I never once put their story down and raced until the very last page.
You gotta commend Hayley on her no fucks given attitude when it comes to her alphas y'all because fuck they can be quite the hot mess. They are rough, rude, arrogant, intense, alluring, addicting in the most toxic ways, and like a bad drug I'm hooked to deep now to turn back... they give me a high I'm not sure I even want to stop chasing.

While I totally struggled with this one (Wolfe was just... UGH in so many ways)... if you like your mc romances super gritty with pitch black moments then this author will be a must read for you.

Unbreak Me
is book 2 of the Savage Beast MC series. I was continued to be captivated by the danger, ruthlessness and violence of the outlaw MC lifestyle. Esther and Wolfe’s messed up romance was raw, heart-wrenching and infuriating. Both of them are so broken because of their agonising childhood. They loved each other, but they both thought they were not worthy of love. All the pushing and pulling throughout the years had led them to hurt each other and themselves. Once they gave in to their true feelings for each other, they finally got the redemption and acceptance to heal their broken souls. I truly enjoyed this dark, gritty and emotional read. Don’t miss out on this one if you are looking for a well-written true MC book.
The book also included Unlove Me, a fantastic bonus short story featuring Mamba and Maria who were some important side characters of Unbreak Me. It was sizzling hot and too short. It has great potential to evolve into a full-length novel.
I received an advance reviewer copy of the book for free in exchange for an honest review. This does not affect my opinion of the book or the content of my review.

UnBreak Me is the second book in the Savage Beast series by Hayley Faiman. Hayley's books always bring a more dirty, gritty lifestyle and UnBreak Me is no different. The intimate scenes are scorching and don't hold back. You are not going to get sweet and gentle from this book, but that's what makes it so good. Hayley just has a way of taking broken spirits and showing us all the wonderful they can be. I love that she's never afraid to take it to an uncomfortable level, because honestly, people with a past like Wolfe and Esther are not going to live in a world of sunshine and rainbows. From the beginning, this book is a roller coaster of emotions. Both main characters are so broken and lost that it seems like there is no way they will ever be able to make it work. Wolfe is a stubborn man with a horrible past that continues to dictate his life, though that is the last thing that he wants it to do. Esther is a broken girl, turned woman who desperately wants to be a good girl but continues to turn to the wrong people for the affection she so desperately craves. Throughout the book, we see both Wolfe and Esther struggle with what they want from life and each other when what they need has always been right in front of them.
