Week 52 Reviews: Annihilation Road, Savage Road


From Goodreads:
All paths lead to destruction in the new Torpedo Ink novel from #1 New York Times bestselling author Christine Feehan.

Savin "Savage" Pajari is convinced he's not worth a damn thing. He's not like his brothers. He's a sadistic monster, a killer--a man no woman could truly love. So it completely throws him when a stranger risks her life for his, pushing him out of the way and taking the hit that would have sent him six feet under. If he had any kind of sense, he'd leave her alone, but Savage can't get the woman with a smart mouth and no sense of self-preservation out of his head. With one kiss, he's lost.

Seychelle Dubois has spent her entire life not feeling much of anything, until Savage comes along and sets her whole body on fire. Kissing him was a mistake. Letting him get close would be a catastrophe. He's the most beautiful--and damaged--man she's ever met. He has a way of getting under her skin, and what he's offering is too tempting to resist.

Seychelle knows so little about Savage or the dangerous world of Torpedo Ink, but his darkness draws her like a moth to a flame. Loving him could mean losing herself completely to his needs--needs she doesn't understand but is eager to learn. But what Savage teaches her could destroy her. 

#1 New York Times bestselling author Christine Feehan explores uncharted territory in the new Torpedo Ink Motorcycle Club novel.

When Savin "Savage" Pajari and Seychelle Dubois first met, their connection was instant, their attraction undeniable. Their relationship has been full throttle since day one. Even though months have passed, the passion and love between them has only increased.

Savage completely owns what he is: a sadist in the bedroom who can only get off on his partner's pain. He believes he's not a good man, but he loves Seychelle with a fierceness that shocks him. He wants all of her, but only if she gives herself freely with eyes wide open.

Seychelle never imagined the lure of mixing pain with pleasure, or how much she'd crave Savage's darkness. She's been shaken to her core, but Seychelle is committed to Savage and their life together--even though he's keeping a piece of himself back. And to truly make their relationship work, he has to give her everything that he is, just as she is doing for him.

Savage knows that what he really needs could break his woman if she isn't ready. She agreed to come into his world, and he's not about to give her up. He has to find a way to let her see the monster inside without pushing her away. But the real Savage might be more than Seychelle can bear...and he knows he wouldn't survive losing her. 

My Review:
These were some really fantastic reads! I was a little bit worried, given how I didn't really like Desolation Road, that Savage, given that he and Seychelle needed 2 books to tell their story, would evoke the same reactions from me, but he didn't, and I was really glad!

I've since read that Annihilation Road was written to be a stand alone story for this couple where they're falling in love, and that Savage Road is the one that really delved into the issues that Savage has, and how they work as a couple as he's dealing with that. And that makes total sense, and I'm really glad that their story wasn't condensed into one book, they really needed that breathing space! 

Savage is almost certainly the darkest of the Torpedo Ink crew. The way he might have been if they'd had a normal childhood, on top of their childhood, well, he's earned his nickname. And then there's Seychelle, which her healing ability. 

These are dark reads, and reading them around the holidays was pretty not the best choice. But I love her writing, and I enjoy this series, and I had a great time with these two, and everything that went on in these stories besides the romance! 

These were really fantastic reads, and I can't wait to see where the series goes from here!
