A synthetic that binds us
This is the final book in this series, which I have truly enjoyed. Fir me this book was more about Santos, his family, his lovers and the chaos that is him. I felt that it got to a point when it was more about their s*x scenes that the plot. Dont get me wrong. I loved reading this series, but I wanted it to move on and find Mac and deal out their punishment. Blaze softens alitte, zan nearly has a breakdown and Darius shows what love is. Selene deals with her past and welcomes new friends into the fold. I loved pepe and Santos. It was hilarious. Great books so worth the read.

Omg this series is amazing. The book to end the way it did was perfect. Selene and the boys are heading to their happy ending but things are not always easy. The book answers all questions that were left and end just perfectly.

This book was such an intense ride from start to finish, everything about it was spicy, twisty, and oh so dark! But absolutely delicious to the point where I literally could not put it down! The characters were so well written & the entire plot of this book just hit the spot!
If you’re into dark and twisty stories, this one is absolutely worth the read! Well done!

Claiming the Reaper is the final book to the amazing series by two incredible authors. I have fall in love with this series and characters with each book I have read and could not wait for the next book to come out and now that it has come to an end, I am happy and sad at the same time. I’m happy we get to learn how Selene and her guys will finally end up. And what a way to end ❤️

Oh Selene.....How can this be the end!! I haven't read a series like this - definitely one of a kind and has a permanent place on my re-read list!
A vigilantes work is never done, but the Reaper Incarnate is no longer just one kick ass female. There's now 4 psychotic, gorgeous, Deadly, loyal and quick to anger men in love with Selene and with the same target - to kill Mack Delaney - the last big dog in the massive skin trade link theyve been decimating since book one.
You'd think with z heavy topic the read would be heavy - nooooo, no,no,no,no!!
Santos is a complex character but he provides the light relief that makes a big difference in this book! He is the epitome of a big kid. His outlook on killing sprees are the same as how most people would view going to a funfair. He doesn't seem to hold any fear! His attachment to Pepe is disturbing but cute!
As his lover, Darius has the patience of a Saint! These two are extremely hot together-madly in love and with Selene completing their little triad, blissfully happy. Their love of knife and blood play is the tip of the non-vanilla iceberg!
Poor Zander. No wonder he's wiped out - being left as the designated babysitter to Santos for the majority of the book! But he also gets to blow stuff up so taking the rough with the smooth! And can't forget Daddy Blaze! He's with Selene at the MC compound for the majority of the book, conspiring with Papa and Loqi of who and when to attack and try to find their missing girl.
Santos is featured heavily in this book due to the fact his dad is the MC Clubs president and he has a brother that he's having trouble getting his head around. But now he finds out he has a sister too, that was stolen and sold into the skin trade when she was 12, 7yrs ago. Its a race against time to find her and we see the flipside of Santos personality - the scary, pissed off big brother that will burn the world down to find her.
Such a great series!! I loved it. From its humble beginnings of a novella in the anthology, Violent Tendancies to this awesome conclusion, you'll love the guys and their psycho ways, and the original reaper assassin vigilante who found her equals, her home and her future!
Perfect!!

This series? So great! I don’t usually annotate but I did with this series but it didn’t work so well because I was highlighting and annotating every friggin page. It’s so good. I love the crazy and darkness.

During this whole series, I feel like my heart was ripped out of my chest and put back in, especially in this book. I just love Santos and Darius' relationship, those two have my heart. The relationship between the five of them has changed over the books, especially each of their relationships with Selene. Although they are all complete psychos, they have a kinda wholesome relationship, in their own kinda way. All the twist turns and questions from other books were answered in this book. And although it was a small time jump the ending was perfect, and very much them. I think this series has slowly become one of my favourite all-time series. I haven’t read the Cat and Mouse Duet, but I feel that people who liked those books should quite enjoy these.
“Does Selene come off as a rational female to you? Are we with the same woman?”

I think I'm in love with Selene! She's a teeny bit on the crazy side, and I LOVE IT! Her men fit her in every way. I love her relationships with all of them.
I am so sad this is the last Reaped book, but whoa, did it come out explosive! Violence, blood, hot and spicy... yes please

A solid ending of the trilogy. Not as captivating as the first two installments but I enjoyed it nevertheless.
For my taste it was a tad too much of everything except plot. It could have easily been 100 pages shorter by cutting out some of the spicy scenes. I’m in for smutty parts but not being able to read more than 3 pages without something explicit happening or someone getting horny gets .. tedious. Especially because it felt as it had to top the first two books, which were already quite untoppable.
And as much as I liked the multiple POV, I continuously got lost who’s POV I was reading. They all felt pretty similar and often just repeat the story from a different angle than adding real new to it.
