Savage Love
Talon was raised in the depths of the Bratva, handling a spoiled college girl should be easy. When I said I’d do anything to get my position back in the Bratva, I didn’t mean babysitting a pampered, rich girl with a penchant for deviating from the plan. Every plan. Every time. This girl is going to be the death of me. Or herself. Maybe we’ll go down in flames together. Elle isn’t the prize. She’s the penance. My first year of college should be amazing; freedom on a level I’ve never experienced. But one night of vengeance has led me to a prison sentence with a stern and sexy Russian mobster as my babysitter. He’s my ever-present shadow, and I vow to become his living nightmare. A car won’t be the only thing I set on fire.

“She is an addiction I’m not sure I’ll ever cure…
…I want to taste her. I want to consume her. I want to ruin her.”
Ok no lie, I didn’t expect to love this book as much as I did. Bodyguard romance isn’t usually my jam, but add in mafia and we are golden. This is a new to me author, and this book started off so strong and held my attention all the way through. Elle and Talon are fire from the moment they meet, and I just loved their back and forth throughout the story and their movement into more than hating each other. Anyway. I don’t want to be long winded, but if you enjoy mafia romance that has dark themes, but also has that new adult feel to the romance and the lighter vibes when it comes to family/friend moments, then you’ll enjoy this read.
This IS a next gen of some of this authors other characters, but I didn’t read the parents books and I was still able to fully understand and enjoy the dynamics in this story.
Anyway. Loved this book, and I’m excited to continue the series when the next book is out!

Spoilers
Eh. Disappointing unfortunately. I love a good bodyguard romance, but this one just didn't do it for me. The characters were overly immature and the dialogue and comebacks were cringe. I didn't like the hero at all either. While he was loyal to the heroine when they get together, he had a manwhore mentality at the beginning where he would always check out girls, including the heroine, which made it gross and unprofessional, and I didn't like how much he paid attention to the heroine's cousins and sister either.
What made it worse was the big drama we got and the threats on the heroine's life was actually because of the hero's obsessive, older, ex-girlfriend that he used to love. It was such a cliche thing of the author to do because the whole reason they needed guards in the first place was because of what they did in the beginning, which ended up somehow just disappearing, which again, I don't understand, because I thought it was the main point of this story, and yet we never got closure.
Lastly, some more minor things that annoyed me was how their father kind of just passed the responsibility onto two younger guys from Russia, to protect their daughters, especially when they have Bratva ties (the hero and the heroine do) You would think he would try to protect them more. Also, I didn't like how this heroine was some big "badass" who acts like she has a lot of experience and yet she's still a virgin. I wouldn't mind it if we didn't have ow crap as the main plotline but that ruined it for me 🙃
Overall, it was almost a dnf but I was bored and didn't feel like starting another book. I'm doubtful I will read this author again though.
Safety:
Virgin heroine
Hero's sex life details are very vague but he was recently in love with his girlfriend (who screwed him over which is why they're not together now) but his thoughts are a little too frat boy for me
Ow drama- hero's ex makes appearances and causes drama but hero doesn't want her back
No cheating/sharing

Plot? Is there a plot? Roll call! Plot?... yeah there is none lol. But was this enjoyable? Yes, yes it was. The plot (for lack of a better word) was so flip floppy it would have been irritating if not for the characters. Are they the most well thought up or sophisticated characters? Well no but they entertained me and I plan to read the next book so yeah.
Maybe don't read this if you want a strong plot and solid story. But if you want entertaining character structures loosely written around said "plot" then yeah totally read it.

✨Thoughts: I absolutely loooooved the tension between Elle and Talon from the get go. I mean, she throws a knife at his head and he’s just like 😍 this woman!

I really loved this heroine and enjoyed the story overall. I would definitely pick up another book by this author.
What I loved:
1. The heroine. Elle was without a doubt the best part of this book. Her protective nature, her illegal fighting…just all of it. There was a vulnerability to her though that she rarely shows.
2. I did like the hero as well. He was the perfect fit for Elle.
3. Great side characters. I loved Alex most but I’m so intrigued but he other secondary female characters.
4. It was a great storyline, forced proximity, mafia, bodyguard. The ending was amazing.
5. Good steam. There was just enough and it helped to foster their relationship.
What I didn’t love:
1. There were some writing issues for me. There were several times that wrong words seemed to be in sentences or missing. I wouldn’t normally mention this as I generally read ARCs, but this was a KU READ and the final manuscript.
2. There were times, not a lot but enough, where I felt like I was being told a lot vs seeing or hearing or feeling it. I needed more development or to see certain scenes.
3. This is completely personal preference but some word choices for the steamy scenes made me pause. Again, this is completely personal preference and this one point didn’t lessen my overall rating of the story.
Overall, it was a really good read. The characters and the generally plot line were really amazing! I’ll be excited to read about Nora.

If the first line doesn't drag you head first into this book, nothing will.
Cold & Broken is my favourite of Nichole Greene's books and this follows the couple from that book's daughter many years on. She is feisty like her mother and a cold-hearted fighter like her dad. She's fierce and will do anything to protect the people she cares about. (love you Connor).
Enter Talon. Poor unsuspecting Talon. Given the job to guard Elle after she does something to annoy some very dangerous people, he finds himself with a much harder job than he inspected. Pun intended.
This story is gripping, sexy and funny. Read it.

This was a quick and light read for me.
Elle and Talon go head-to-head almost instantly. They’re both to stubborn for their own good. The sexual tension was real with this one but I was here for it.
Yes, it is a mafia romance but it wasn’t that dark. It was kind of a nice palette refresher.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ ARC Read
🖤Nichole Greene just gets better and better and the first book In The Twisted Legacies does not disappoint.
🏙The use of descriptive passage leaves you falling into every scene getting lost in the character and their surroundings
👌🏼the character build is perfect!!
🌈The personality of all of the female leads for the entire series are seamlessly summed up in the first few chapters! Making you pine for their stories.
🔥The spice was hot!!
📚The Titans are tied in so well letting the personality of the OG crew shine. The book is structured flawlessly enough that you can get a solid feel for the character with out having to read the original series.
💚Elle is an absolute boss bitch and the perfect blend of her parents Con and Lillith- she is sassy, savage, determined and not afraid to fight dirty … she is totally summed up in the line Elle Volkov isn’t the prize. She is the penance.
🤍Talon is total male main character goals! With a Bravta background he may very well be the only man strong enough to calm the fury that is Elle. For anyone who love the Titian’s of Founders Ridge, I feel Talon has some of the best traits of the original boys all rolled in to one delicious package!!
I’m not going to delve into the story and spoil the experience but do yourself a favour- shelve you TBR and pick this one up on release day- you won’t regret it!!

THIS. BOOK. this book y'all. wow i don't even know where to start i loved it so much. the very first chapter, the very first SENTENCE, had me hooked immediately. i was already super excited for this book and it surpassed all of my expectations. the banter is amazing, it made me cry so many real tears (all too well sad girl autumn version playing in the background didn't help), and my heart grew ten times to fit the love i feel for these characters.

elle volkov is a firecracker (lol) and i swear i fell in love with her on the first page. she's fiercely loyal and protective of her family which i always love and her preferred method of transportation is a motorcycle. yeah, please marry me. talon is her PERFECT match. elle is a take nothing lying down kind of girl and talon pushes her in ways that can only help her grow. i also just really love couples who spar and ride motorcycles together.
·
i am a big fan of the bodyguard trope and lemme tell you, i'd love talon to guard me any day lol. i adore his friendship with alexi and i love that he had someone in his corner from the beginning. you know that moment when the guy realizes he's fallen for the girl? his moment was one of my favorites 🥺
·

Savage Love is the perfect blend of spice, steam, sass, relationship and hotness. Nichole I love you, you write so beautifully it always touches my heart. I’m so fond of the boys who have become more protective fathers. It’s touching to come back in their world and see how their daughters have grown up. Getting a glimpse in all their lives builds a support system for the story. There is not one single character in her books that I dislike, all of them have different traits to love and adore.
Savage Love is the book which follows character Elle, who is one of the twins of Connor & Lilith’s. She’s fierce, strong and no nonsense girl. She’ll go to any limits to protect what she loves, just like all of them. She lands into trouble and to protect her from evil, Connor hires a Russian mobster Talon who has a different agenda in life and will do whatever it takes to protect the job he’s taking. Talon doesn't know what he has signed up for, Elle is no easy work to go through in the first place.
Talon & Elle have a great chemistry budding and their banter is hilarious. Every conversation between them is not enough, it’s like I wanted more and more with every page. I was enthralled by the story and it’s very binding too.

When there's distance between us I can stay rational. But even an innocent touch unleashes such a destructive need inside me. It feels like everything around us blurs in these moments and the only thing in bright, vivid color is her. Her tongue swipes across her pink lower lip and I lose my mind. Those are my lips. That is my tongue. I crush my mouth over hers, inhaling her surprised gasp like it is my dying breath. - Savage Love
First of all thank you to Nichole Greene for sending me the arc for this book! I’m obsessed and in love and rereading Cold and Broken now cause I miss Connor and Lilith!
Y’all…this book was soo good! I had missed this world and getting to step back in and see the kiddos of some of my favorite characters made me so happy! Elle is a Volkov through and through and I love her! Talon was perfection, he loved our rough girl and saw her even when she didn’t want to be seen. If you haven’t read the Titans of Founders Ridge series do yourself a favor and download it asap! This book comes out on November 22nd so you have time to read it before this book comes out!

Nichole Greene is a new to me author and let me tell you… this book was AH-MAZING!
Savage Love follows Elle and Talon. Elle comes from a Russian background and when she does something that pisses of the cartel, her dad reaches out to a close family ally. Enters Talon. He is hired to protect Elle until the threat is eliminated. What happens when business mixes with pleasure?
I love these two characters so much. This is a forbidden story with a bodyguard. Elle is a strong, independent woman who doesn’t believe she needs a bodyguard and that she can protect herself. Talon is a strong, handsome Russian. He has his work cut out for him as Elle is tough cookie. Their chemistry is insane. The push and pull from each other… I couldn’t get enough.
The plot. It was a page turner. From the moment the book started till it end, it was action packed and full of twists and turns.
The spice. This is not full of smut book. There were several scenes, but it was thought out and HOT. The details made you feel like you were in the scene. Oh so good!
I definitely recommend this book and this author!!
Rating: 4.5/5
Spice: 2/5

“It’s never felt like this before, and I doubt it ever will again. What a cruel hand fate has dealt, to give me someone so perfect, yet so unattainable.”
_______________________________________
I adored this book.
Elle is no nonsense, tough and(a tad) abrasive but so caring and soft in her core. Talon is NOT your typical Russian mobster punk lol. He is multilayered and sweet, and tender! Swoon!!
•
It was so SO great to see all the Titans and the women again and the karma Con got in the form of a daughter who is JUST like him 😅
•
The connection and tension between Elle and Talon is so tight I was waiting on pins and needles for it to snap and when it did!
🥵
•
Fell for my bodyguard
Forced proximity
Deliciousness.
Nichole is a queen, and this book is the perfect legacies edition to her Titans!

The Cartel is after Elle after she burns half their product. So Talon and Alexi get hired on to protect Elle and Nora. Nora is sweet and smart and doesn't like to cause issues. Elle is a little to hard headed for her own good and at times you might find her beyond frustrating but when Talon finally breaks down all of her walls, you realize a lot of what you see is just an act. Talon tries to fight his attraction but when these two fight / wrestle each other, all bets are off while these two take it to the next level.

I haven’t read a good mafia style romance in quite a while. This does not disappoint! I love how tough Elle is and Talon is now a new book boyfriend of mine. The chemistry! The banter! The spice! I can’t say enough good things about this book! Greene has absolutely outdone herself with this one! Read it. You’re going to love it!

This was a great bodyguard romance with plenty of action and sexy time! I like Elle as she is fiesty and takes no crap from no one and has no problem fighting her own battles. Talon was a terrific love interest from the beginning. I loved how into Elle he was and how he wouldn't back down from her and back off like she wanted in the beginning. If you need a spicy bodyguard romance pick this one up!

I went into this book completely blind and not even sure who recommended it to me. I didn’t realize it was a bodyguard / mafia romance. So this was a first for me. I didn’t hate this book; in fact I loved the spice. I just cringed on certain parts of the book. All together; i gave three stars + it was actually a really quick read. I definitely will be checking out more books from this author in the future :)

This story starts with the ferocity that is Elle. I love how strong she is and how protective she is over her family, especially her twin sister.
Talon loves that Elle challenges him. The back and forth between them was 🔥
I also REALLY liked the side characters and can’t wait for Noras story!

I enjoyed it a lot! A great continuation of the parent series. But I just wanted *more*. More of the parents from the parent series and more of the siblings. Hoping to get that more in the next book. The teaser at the end was just cruel! 😝

The amount of plot and romance in this book was perfect because I don’t like when plot overpowers the whole story. Bodyguard romance loved it and can’t wAit to start the next one

Alexa, play "Bad Reputation" by Joan Jett and the Blackhearts.
I AM SCREAMING. This book blew me away. Arguably the best book Greene has ever written. The world building was just perfect, the characters developed extremely well, and the BANTER. THE BANTER y'all.
Elle may be my new favorite FMC of all time. I love that she owns her crazy and gives no room for BS. She knows her reactions can be extreme, but she never apologizes. She's fiercely loyal, which I suspect is hereditary. ;)
Talon, oh Talon. How in the world do I begin to type the words to describe the gravity that is Talon. Greene created the perfect man for Elle, honestly. His protective, alpha male bravado challenges Elle at every turn. He takes no BS from anyone, except Elle, he allows her to be exactly who she is and never once tries to change her.
If you love enemies-to-lovers, mafia romance, and a kick butt heroine this book is for you. THANK YOU Nichole Greene for sending me an early copy of Savage Love. This review is being left voluntarily, all opinions are my own.

ARC reader and long time fan!!!
I loved the series Titans of Founders Ridge! The endless banter, wit, charm, and aggression kept it going for me. Now years later it’s the childrens turn starting with Elle! Elle is a chip off the old block, a carbon copy of her father. When threats start to arrive for her and her twin, her father enlists the help of the Bratva to protect his own. But will Elle and Talon, the bratva male that is protecting her, make out alive with our killing each other? I’m anxious now for the next one in series!!! Give me more!!!

I LOVED this book. I even highlighted certain passages which apart from Haunting Adeline is unknown for me 🤣 I was meant to read one chapter before bed and before I knew it I was on 98%, it was 5am and I was on the prologue for book 2. Which I have the ARC for so I'm currently reading that now! Would definitely recommend!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ REVIEW (BETA READER).... If you loved the Titans of Founder's Ridge series, you are going to LOVE the next generation. I just finished the book and it blew me away. It was phenomenal. I love the fierce and sassy Elle (one of Connor and Lilith's twins). I love the banter between Talon and Elle. I love getting to see the original gang as grownups/parents. I love seeing the traits the second generation got from their parents too. This story is heavily focused on the Russian mafia (which Connor has history with because of his family). Elle has the same strong willed, stubborn personality that her mom had in the original series, along with her dad's up to no good tendencies, so she gives Talon more than a little trouble when he is assigned as her bodyguard. I can't wait to read Nora's book next (Elle's twin).

This fast paced book had a strong, stubborn heiress meeting her match in her equally stubborn, and incredibly handsome, bodyguard. I would consider this a dark romance book solely for its mentions of different crime families and their businesses, but aside from a few scenes dealing with violence or violent threats, it’s not terribly dark. The MCs are definitely anti-heros, but the actual mentions of their actions are limited or very light on the details.
Fiercely loyal and oftentimes reckless, nineteen year old Elle would do anything to protect her family, so when a video of her twin sister, Nora, during an intimate moment gets leaked, Elle doesn’t hold back in seeking her revenge. She doesn’t regret it for a moment, not even if her actions caused unforeseen trouble for her and Nora that eventually lead to assigned bodyguards shipped straight from the Russian Bratva. Elle knows she’s capable of taking care of herself, so while she’s grateful for the protection their new babysitters provide her sister, she has no plans to quietly accept her unpleasant new situation—not even if her irritatingly gorgeous bodyguard is able to keep up with her and give as good as he gets.
With his best friend Alexi by his side, twenty three year old Talon is determined to do this job right and prove to his uncle that he won’t fail the brotherhood a second time. It should be easy; all they need to do is guard and protect a couple of spoiled heiresses as they attend college, and when they return to Russia, Talon will be back in his uncle’s good graces. Meeting the twins is a different story however, especially when Talon realizes his personal charge will be a bit more of a challenge than he thought. Elle is the most beautiful—and most reckless—woman he’s ever met, and throughout his time there, he can't seem to keep his eyes off her. Though that’s what his job entails, the way he thinks about her is definitely not what he was hired to do, and if the looks she gives him are any indication, he’s not the only one feeling this way.
As they get closer and spend more time together, the tension simmering between them ignites, but when threats arise that point to deadly consequences for them both, Elle and Talon are faced with decisions that could affect not only their safety, but their budding new relationship as well.
While this book does deal with the initial reason that made bodyguards necessary, not much action happens besides in the climax of the book. It was more focused on the relationships between the different characters rather than the dangerous aspect of the plot. That’s not a bad thing at all though! It left plenty of time for the characters to grow closer and for the pieces to set up for the final showdown. I honestly enjoyed the slower momentum because of the suspense it brought to the plot; while menacing things would happen, I was waiting for the moment things would become truly dangerous. When it did, it was intense yet wasn’t over the top, bringing the story to a peak that made it hard to put down.
This book focuses mainly on bringing the two stubborn MCs together, and their relationship was slow building and surprisingly sweet. While they had chemistry from the very beginning, the MCs took their time letting it develop before they gave in, making for a tension filled read full of great banter and heated moments. The actual spice was well written and was equaled out nicely by the softer moments that showed a more vulnerable side of the characters. I think the author did a good job with using the MCs’ circumstances to bring them closer together without letting their personalities change with their new dynamic. Despite their violent tendencies, Elle and Talon’s relationship was actually very cute and was fun to read.
As much as I liked it, I do think this book would have benefited from a final edit and read-through before it was published. The handful of typos and few inconsistencies weren’t anything more than a minor issue and they didn’t influence how I was able to enjoy the book, but it did take me out of the moment whenever I came across one.
Regardless of that, I enjoyed this book! The story was interesting, the characters were entertaining, and Elle and Talon’s story came to a satisfying finish. Since this book is part of a series of standalones, it can be read separately from the others, but with how much I liked this book, I’m sure the others will be just as good.

this book sucked too like i’m not that surprised bc i find body guard romances to be the same kind of shit w the main girl being rich and spoiled and the body guard being all cold and serious but the forced proximity and the banter makes them fall in love. the only good one is twisted games fr but this one was so bad like the pacing of the book was so fast i was caught off guard w all the shit happening bc it’s all coming at you out of nowhere like i know it’s a short book but that doesn’t mean you can’t have good pacing. the couple was also so instant lovey like how tf does the main girl say she hates the main guy and then all sudden misses and then they fuck and think they’re in love all within a week or two like what’s going on. their relationship is just so forced to me bc there’s been not much to build up the foundation of trust or even liking each other that much like the main girl always bitches about the main guy and there’s supposed to be this tension between them but i’m just not feeling it i don’t like either of the characters as well. the main girl is such an entitled spoiled brat to me and she has no kind of character growth this book is very much wattpad type of shit bc this bitch is super rich living in a house her parents bought her along w her sister and cousin for college like what. but she’s so annoying to me bc she’s complaining about having a body guard as if there aren’t people literally coming for her family and she thinks she’s all that w defending herself but this girl is so dumb there’s a reason why you need a bodyguard bc a stranger asked her to help him find a place and he kidnapped her and she even acknowledged like oh i shouldn’t help knowing there was threats going on but she was like i’m thinking like my dad let me help like girl are you dumb how did you think you were gonna defend yourself against shit when you’re literally a dumbass. omg this shit got me heated lmao but i just don’t like her character at all she swears she cares about her family but she seems very self centered thinking she’s all knowing and that things should go her way like girl humble yourself. i don’t like the main guy either bc idk something about his pov feels very objectifying to the main girl and also he’s just so boring to read like i be yawning when it switches to his pov. he also makes dumb ass choices and doesn’t know how to talk to women bc mommy issues ig but like bro how you gonna hook up w the main girl and find out she’s a virgin and be like oh it’s a mistake but also boo the main girl bc she cant ever think she did something wrong bc she was like oh so you don’t want me bc i’m a virgin like girl pls he didn’t want ur first time to be at a gym what. i’m just incredibly annoyed but these characters bc how they gonna be annoying but also boring asf. the ending was so bad too bc girl got kidnapped and there was this miscommunication moment where the main guy said he was playing the main girl to his ex so he could protect her and make it seem like he doesn’t care about her so the ex backs off but she recorded that shit and played it to the main girl and she’s all upset which another dumb ass bitch moment for her she sees the main guy while escaping and doesn’t accept his help bc she’s mad at him like girl he’s tryna save ur ass from fucking bleeding out and you wanna yell like yell after fr and why would he want his ex like the main guys little bestie told her about how the ex broke his heart and she’s gonna believe shit the ex says like girl how you gonna think you’re in love w him but can’t even trust him. she pushes him away and he leaves and she’s all upset like girl you did this to yourself and when he comes back all a sudden she forgets why she’s mad and she’s like omg sit down let’s talk like where was this before but they make up and i hate them they need to wake up and break up. omg i hated this book this gets like a 4/10 it’s like one star tbh.

ARC Review!
I loved Titan's of Founders Ridge and the second generation, Twisted Legacies, did not let me down. There's danger, intrigue, women who can take care of themselves, and sexual tension that steams off the page. Savage Love is a bodyguard romance full of banter and bonding that makes you swoon.
Talon has been demoted by the Pakhan in Russia, and is given a detail assisting Connor Volkov to protect his daughters in order to earn back his place in the Bratva, and brings along his best friend Alexi. Elle and Nora Volkov, twins who could not be more different, find themselves threatened by a cartel for Elle's actions on Nora's behalf. The danger is real, but Elle gives no fucks and has no regrets.
Elle is the best. She's strong both physically and in terms of temperament - she is decisive, loyal, and has an inability to keep her mouth shut. As a female lead, she's fun to follow but also surprisingly innocent. Elle is fierce, and it makes it easy to want her to be happy and understand why she makes some of the decisions that she does. Elle is beyond overprotective, like her dad, but that doesn't mean she doesn't need protecting too, and her family gives it to her in their own ways.
Talon is a male lead in search of a purpose, and I love that while he looks like a typical broody Russian, his personality has a lot more charm and humor than that. He is a restless kind of person, he's trained well and knows how to fight, but he also has a genuine ability to connect and care. When he and Alexi are placed with Elle and Nora, and by proximity with Alina and Sloane, they create actual relationships and friendships with them. I love that the characters don't hide behind "professionalism" in all things, and know that they are better at protecting their charges if they actually know them.
Elle and Talon cannot stop sniping with each other and the banter will make you smile - they are so alike, and it bonds them to one another. They fit like two puzzle pieces, and make your pulse race as they give in to their attraction. It's extra sexy because it's just forbidden enough for them to fight it, but even the people around them can see how obvious it is. They try and push each other away but it's for the right reasons, reasons that aren't written in to add drama come from a place of logic. These two are so dynamic you might cheer out loud.
It's so much fun to see the Volkov/Marsh/Potter family all together. Con, Griff, and Lev are definitely still up to illegal shenanigans and their women are definitely keeping them in line, and it's fun to see what traits their children got although we mostly spend time with the girls this book. The four of them are all different, but all intertwined in each other's lives, and look after one another in their own way. It's a very non-judgmental family, and I liked that none of the parents hold their kids to standards so much higher than the trouble they got up to. It makes it more believable when they do crazy things for each other because you know the love is there, without strings or conditions.
One of my favorite things about Greene is that her writing is always super smooth, and the story hooks you in and flows into your brain. I cannot wait to read more Twisted Legacies and find out more of this family's secrets.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ ARC Read
💞💞Omg! If you loved the Titans of Founders Ridge series you are going to fall so in love with the Twisted Legacies series!!
🤤Daddy Connor made his appearance and let’s just say he definitely made sure he did it with his Volkov charm!
📚I absolutely loved seeing the OG crew make their appearances throughout the story because you truly got to see which characteristics each of the kids got from their parents! And oh boy just by what we have seen so far the daughters of the titans are going to have some badass stories!
💚Elle Volkov is literally the carbon copy of her father with her fierceness, aggressive side but also her loyalty and protective side of the ones she loves. She just might be my new favorite female that Nichole has written. Nichole perfectly summed up Elle in the line “Elle Volkov isn’t the prize. She is the penance”
🖤Oh my Talon!! 🔥🔥 Russian mobster with a dark side but then he goes and flips the switch on us with his sweet, tender and downright walking sex on a stick! Talon was so well written that he definitely has the best traits of the OG boys and is wrapped up in a sexy package! Victor (Connor’s dad) states the absolute best line when it comes to Talon & Elle because it reminds you sooo much about Connor and Lilith…”So, it turns out you(Lilith) and Elle have similar taste in men”
❤️🔥You will fall in love with the connection Talon and Elle have, their banter back and forth, the aggression and push and pull they have for each other! Nichole did not disappoint in anyway!
👌👌Not only did Nichole write an incredible story of Elle and Talon but she also emphasized on the relationships Elle had with her twin as well as with her cousins! It reminds me soo much about the OG Crew!! I absolutely cannot wait for Nora’s book (Elle’s twin)!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️This book was phenomenal and you will fall in love with the very first paragraph! If you haven’t read the Titans of Founder’s Ridge series or you need a reread you still have time! Savage Love releases on November 22nd!!!🔥🔥🔥

O livro conta a história da Elle e do Talon, mas também somos apresentados a personagens que terão livros mais pra frente, a Nora, que é a irmã gêmea da Elle, e suas primas Sloane e Alina.
A família da Elle tem ligações com a Bratva, porém tentam sair dessa "amizade" a anos, mas quando Elle se mete um uma confusão com o Cartel pra defender Nora, seu pai sabe que os seguranças da empresa de sua esposa não serão o suficiente para as proteger de uma possível retaliação, então vai até São Petersburgo pedir ajuda ao Packan (chefe/líder) da Bratva, e ele então manda seu sobrinho e o melhor amigo dele para serem os guarda-costas das meninas.
Alguns anos atrás a pessoa que Talon achava que iria se casar, o traiu e traiu sua família vendendo informações para inimigos, então ele foi rebaixado de nível, e é o equivalente ao menino do café para seu tio, qualquer trabalho mais ou menos que apareça é dele, então ele vê essa missão como a oportunidade perfeita de mostrar ao seu Packan que ele pode confiar nele e o restituir a sua real posição.
Mas com sentimentos envolvidos na equação, quando o pior acontecer, quem Talon irá escolher, a única noção de família que conhece, ou a menina que roubou seu coração sem consentimento?
Eu adorei o livro, surtei bastante, quis socar muito a Elle, porque o menina burra, ela tenta tanto ser diferente das outras meninas que ela fica chata, mas com o tempo ela percebe que não precisa ser assim pra conseguir o que quer.
Ela é super leal, e vai até os confins do mundo pra proteger quem ama, principalmente se essa pessoa for a Nora.
O Talon por mais que seja o que teve o coração partido, e alega não querer romance, é o primeiro a cair, e não tem medo de ir atrás do que quer, e nem de rastejar se for preciso.
Eu também amo a relação dele com o Alexi, eles são super fofos juntos.
Pode parecer, mais não tem uma grande diferença de idade entre eles não.
