A review by sonja_ahrb
Devastate by Pam Godwin

5.0

I am such a huge fan of Ms. Godwin’s Deliver series and I always get so excited whenever a new book comes out and Devastate was no exception. And while I was expecting an excellent read, I had no idea how truly outstanding it would be. I wholeheartedly loved Devastate and it is without a doubt my favorite in the series after Vanquish!

I have a standard way of writing my reviews, but it just feels wrong to do it with Devastate. I usually talk about the heroine and hero at this point and then go on about how the book made me feel, but I can’t it do that way this time.

I’ll be honest, although I was excited for Devastate because it was a new Deliver novel, I was a little bummed out that it wasn’t the hero that I wanted to read about yet. Don’t get me wrong, I loved Tate in Disclaim, but let’s just say that I wanted to read about a guy who has a thing with some needle and thread more than I did about Tate. Yeah, if I had known then what I know now, I would have squealed in delight and dove in as soon as Devastate hit my kindle because I loooooove Tate and I especially loooooooved his story.

There are times in reviews where I say that the book really captured me and I just could not put the book and while it’s always true in those cases, it was even more so in Devastate. After awhile, I simply could not tear myself away, although there is nothing simple about this story. It is a heart pounding, thrilling, gritty, fascinating read. It is raw and dark and heart wrenching, but it is also romantic and sweet and heart melting. Devastate was extraordinary, it was beyond beautiful and it truly touched my heart.

Devastate should be read after the first three books in the Deliver series, it’s told from Tate and Lucia’s POV, they get their happily-ever-after, and I absolutely cannot wait to read the next book!
