Oh my god!! That ending!! I loved this book. These men are hot, our girl is finding herself with the help of the guys and it’s going to be fantastic, the story sucked me in from the beginning. Really an amazing book!! I need the next one so badly!!
After loosing her parents to some kind of wild wolf attack Jemma broke apart. Having no family members left she is left adrift with only a friend Bryan who later became more. Stuck with nightmares that leave her vulnerable Jemma stays with him not knowing where else to go. Little does she know her life is about to be changed by three alphas. Men who have purchased her for a debt that Bryan owes. But they make a deal with her. Submit to them for thirty days, obey their every whim and she will be rewarded. She can walk away when ever she wants, but when Draven, Kade and Bishop are done with her. Will she want to?
Okay so this is the second book I have read by Elaina Jadin and my first by Marie Robinson. I will be changing that after reading Fawn. I am completely captivated or I could say obsessed with Jemma and her story. From the first sentence to the last, I could not tear my eyes away from my kindle. This will also be going on my book shelf.
We are combining two of my favorite things shifters and mafia. These guys are not romantic, they are not soft. They are alphas all the way. They tell their fawn what to do and when to do it. They take what they want, and the thing is they make you want to be dominated by them. I do believe that my reactions to them would be just like what Jemma did. I believe that these alphas just moved themselves up to the top of my favorite men list.
Jemma, I felt for her so much. After watching her parents die savagely, not to mention living life as best as she can. She is completely captivated by the Alphas. They call to something in her, she wants the freedom or punishments that they give. She starts to crave them, and I do not blame her.
The plot itself had me intrigued, add in the well written characters, the drama, the super sexy times and that ending. There is a cliff hanger, one that fits the title of the second book Fury very well. I so cannot wait to see what happens next.
This book had me hooked from the very beginning. It was so dark an angsty and I couldn’t put it down. I loved every second of it. Jemma is so incredibly broken but in the best ways and the guys each give her something that she needs in a different way. Their relationships are incredible and that cliffhanger will be the death of me.
I am literally at a loss for words after finishing this book! I was dreading the fact that I knew the pages were dwindling and the book was going to be over. Fawn is astoundingly unique and beautifully written. I cannot express enough how wonderful the characters are and how fantastic the character development is. Major Kudos to this writing duo! I absolutely flipping loved this book and will be on pins and needles awaiting the sequel!
This is the first shifter book I’ve read and I absolutely loved it!
Jemma/Fawn is a strong character even when she’s brought to her knees by the agonising images of her past. So how will she fair against the domineering alphas, Draven, Bishop, and Kade?
Fawn is a fantastic, dark, sexy, and riveting, well written romance. And the cliffhanger had me on the edge of my seat! I can’t wait for more!
Holy crap. Fawn went above and beyond what I expected. A dark romance with delectable men with major control issues and a FMC who just needs the right kind of help to pick herself up. While the men are harsh, you can tell that something is brewing towards something more. Fawn ended with an action packed scene that left me on the edge of my seat and begging for more!
~BREAKDOWN OF RATINGS~
Plot + pacing ~ 5/5
This story moves and has tons of twisty developments to keep you intrigued. If there’s no plot movement, then there’s character development. Every scene builds off the previous one.
Character depth ~ 5/5
Even though there are multiple POV, this story is mostly Jemma’s. While we get brief views into the men’s background, you know exactly where Jemma’s headspace is.
Multiple POV ~ Yes
Hero(es) ~ 5/5
I do have a favorite out of the 3 Alphas. Kade is the inferno of the group. He may be impetuous at times, but he knows what he wants. Bishop is like a game master, he controls the business and security detail. There is an eerie stillness in him that only Jemma seems to cause a ripple effect.
And Draven… he’s a challenge. Controlling, aloof and icy, this man has built quite a wall around him. But when he cracks it will be glorious.
Heroine~ 4/5
Admittedly, I am difficult to please when it comes to female characters. If they’re not a warrior, then I expect them to have intelligence or wit as a weapon to weld. Jemma is growing on me, though.
Her character is BROKEN and crippled emotionally. Forget about other broken characters that you’ve read in other books. She wins the award.
And so, I had to keep reminding myself she is extremely damaged. However, I’m starting to see her character growth and moments of brilliance. So, I am starting to see how she will contribute to the relationships.
Emotion felt by reader ~ 5/5
Dear Lawd! This is one gripping read and your heart is gonna have palpitations. I FELT Jemma’s anxiety.
Triggers ~ (non-con, dub-con): No
Note, she consents to everything.
Dark themes (violence, gore, etc): Yes
Violence, physical abuse. Note, none of the harem men inflict harm to Jemma.
Sensuality, Passionate ~ 5/5
W.ic.k.e.d. good times!
Se(xxx)y time(s) ~ 5/5
Themes of Master/Slave (all consenting), Strong Dominance/Submissive scenes. Masochism/sadism
Everything is 100% consensual and Jemma even CRAVES it.
I personally think Kade’s scene could have been… dirtier. I loved it! But I like it super descriptive, too.
Cliffhanger ~ Yes
For the love of the authors, please DON’T leave a bad review or dock a star because of the cliffhanger!!! It’s called a series… the plot WILL continue in book 2, and so on.
Book Cover ~ 5/5
If they keep the ribbon…take notice of it and remember it when reading.
This is a self described Dark Shifter Mafia…. But it is like nothing I’ve read before! The characters are unique, the MC a little bit broken, and the men are Alpha down to their marrow!
Fawn, also known as Jemma, is struggling with a past that haunts her. The Baron Alpha’s are the men who are going to break her down even further, but then allow her to rebuild herself as the Queen they don’t even know they want yet!
This book has ups and downs, twists and turns, and surprises that will just lay you flat, but I absolutely loved it and would recommend it to anyone that needs a little Alpha-hole manliness in your life
DOM/SUB usually isn’t my thing but this book was absolute Jemma is thrust into a situation that will either throw her into yet another nightmare or make her finally stand on her own two feet but will she be far to broken to live after it’s all said and done? I was in the edge of my seat reading this story and immediately jumped to book number two. Now all I can do is wait until the conclusion finally is available.
