Savage Gods (ARC)

[4⭐️] [5/5🌶]

Savage Gods is an enemies > lovers Reverse Harem. This is book two so they are no longer enemies, but just lovers. In this book we get to see more of the mystery unfold, and watch their intimate moments as a new polyamourous relationship!

This book was much faster paced than Savage Hate (book 1), which I enjoyed. It was a rollercoaster of emotions to go from the cross scene in the beginning (*wink*) to the cross scene in the end (*sobs*). It was super easy to follow even though it was moving so fast! I honestly am loving the plot that continues to unfold between Lennon and the boys and the Church of Rapture. 

PLOT TWIST… idk if you guys predicted it, I honestly did NOT. I loved the end of Savage Gods, and it had me shocked… which is exactly what I was hoping for after Savage Hate. I loved the raw emotion that the plot twist brought out of all of the characters, not just Lennon.  The last chapter in Liam’s POV has me aching for the third book, which I will begin promptly after this review ;). 

The development of the relationship was maybe my favorite part of this whole book. I loved the integration of Briar and her boys. I think it was good for Lennon to see the dynamic outside of her own relationship so that she understands that she CAN have a future with her boys. I also loved the glimpse into Briar being a mom :) The fact that Lennon has truly opened up her heart to the boys makes this book 10x’s better. Especially the last chapter where they all just take care of each other… super intimate and super cute, but don’t worry, still super SMUTTY. 

The smut again KILLED IT. Even better than book #1. The cross scene with Jude at the beginning? AMAZING. Seriously this book could have no plot and I would simply read for the smut that it is giving. I love how the men are also intimate with each other… a lot of RH's are just there for the women and do not allow vulnerability between the men as well. It was nice to see everyone be able to be vulnerable with EVERYONE. 

Overall, I really enjoyed this book and would 100% recommend it to readers who love Reverse Harem and a suspenseful plot. It does end on a cliffhanger that will be resolved in book #3 (Savage Reign).
