Amazing story other than the nicknames. It is just me personally, I cringed every time he said it. It is still a five star read.

Beautiful Savage is the story of Nicoli and Winter.

We were first introduced to Nicoli in Beautiful Carnage, so I would recommend reading that first due to the crossover characters and interconnected storyline.

Both Nicoli and Winter have lived tragic lives and together they will fight their demons.

Nicoli is dealing with the secret that was revealed in Beautiful Carnage (that he is the brother of the presumed dead brother of the Romero's), and hiding from his true family by moving to the mountains which is where he finds Winter.

Winter lost everything the day she was kidnapped. She loses her memories and her voice.
Now she is free but lost in the wild, snowy mountains until she is found by Nicoli.

Regardless of the torture she was put through Winter has come out as a strong survivor and is not willing to let anyone make decisions for her anymore. She now has one objective. To find and destroy "The Five" who held her captive.

They are both able to stay in their own secure little bubble for a time until someone recognises Winter. We then get a bigger plot twist and secrets revealed.

You get more of Frankie and Enzo and I can't wait for their stories.

Adored the second installment into Romero life following one of the other brothers. This was brought to life to me by listening via Audible too!

I thoroughly enjoyed this book.
I loved Nikolai in Beautiful Carnage so was super excited to know we would get his story in this book.
I loved Winter and her character development. I did not see the twists coming and was so shocked when it all came out.
This kept me interested from the very start and I just couldn’t stop reading it!!!!
Another great book by the twisted sisters

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/5

While I enjoyed the premise of this novel, and I really liked the characters, I found myself skipping a *lot* of pages during the second half.

The action scenes just felt piled on and kind of boring. Like, once they got off the mountain, we probably only needed one twist and maybe 1-2 events, but instead, it was just a lot of stuff.

Also, just like in the first novel, Clarrissa seems to be there as solely a plot device?
