A fast paced MC series
A fast paced MC read that I highly recommend you read the first book before jumping into the second book Redemption. I didn’t read the first book and was lost and confused through most of this story with references, even though it could be read as a stand alone. It is action packed with lots of drama and wondering what can these characters handle next. I’m curious to go back and read the first book and will also be looking to read the next in series.
Kelsey and Axel have a history, which tore them apart and is now bringing them back together. Who will survive the fallout?
This novel is book two in a series about three brothers. I did not read the first novel, so I do not know the complete backstory of Axel and Kelsey. I think reading the previous novel would be helpful. Kelsey does have flashbacks of meeting Axel and there are glimpses of information about how they were when they first met, but it is kind of murky in my opinion. I am not sure if there is more information about Kelsey’s father in the first novel, however there is a lot of information about her mother’s Irish roots and family in this novel. Throughout the entire novel, Axel and his brothers refer to Kelsey’s dad as “Governor,” yet there was no clarification if he was a political figure or if that was just some type of criminal nickname. Either way I had a lot of questions regarding the state of Kelsey’s parent’s home when Axel and his brothers went there to investigate. There was a lot of action in this novel from the beginning, however I did not understand most of it. The intimate scenes are steamy as Axel and Kelsey are combustible together. The Axel and Kelsey portion of the novel ends on a HEA, however, there is a sneak peek into book three which is about the youngest brother Zane. He appears to be the most interesting of the three, but I like introspective and intense guys. Overall, the novel was nicely written and was a good read.
I received a free advanced reader copy of this novel for an honest review.
As far as Axel’s concerned, it’s time for his love to come back home. It’s been years since she ran, but now it’s time for her to be where she belongs – by his side. Except it really will not be that easy because Kelsey ran for a reason, and Axel will have a serious fight on his hands getting her to trust him again. Yes, she needs his protection, but her trust? Yeah that’s not going to be easy to come by. Especially when family dealings, action, and violence are still surrounding Axel, after all, it’s his family’s way…
I haven’t read the first book in this series, and I probably should have, because I was a tad lost at times. But, I was able to pick up the gist of the story and enjoy it. It’s intense and action packed, and Kelsey and Axel’s connection is bone deep. They just had to figure everything out to make that second chance work for them. Zane’s story is up next, and I can’t wait for more Savage brothers now.
Axel Savage is so dreamy! Gah! He’s a sexy, lethal, sweetheart of an alpha and I am in loooooove. Redemption is an awesome read. It’s got a little bit of everything- it’s suspenseful and funny, with lots of action and some super sweet moments. I am loving this series. Now I can’t wait for Zane’s book!!
Redemption is a second chance romance and can be read as a stand-alone, however if you like the complete picture and backstory I recommend reading Revenge first. Kelsey and Axel have a chemistry that sparks off the pages and an intensity that leads to some steamy scenes. With danger looming Kelsey might have to put her lack of trust to the side and allow Axel and his protective nature of what he considers his to take control. Action, drama, suspense, surprises and passion will have you captivated right to the very last page.
“The moment I read the blurb I knew it was going to be an amazing story and I’m amazed of what I read. The story was incredible good! Axel and Kelsey had history until she ran away. All her efforts to disappear weren’t enough. Axel wasn’t willing to let her scape. He was her knight in shinning armor! The moment she was in danger he didn’t hesitate on saving her. He was so protective and I fell in love deeply with him for that. Action-packed guarantee with suspenseful moments and off the chart chemistry. Highly recommend!”
Redemption is book two in the series. I wish I read Revenge first because I had some questions but I still really like this. It had suspense, secrets and tons of action. Axel and Kelsey had explosive chemistry and were scorching together. They were perfect for each other! I am definitely going back and reading Asher’s book and I can’t wait for Zane’s!
This is the 2nd book in this amazing series and is Axel and Kelsey’s turn. Axel is a sexy and protective alpha and Kelsey is a feisty, strong, and determined female who is more than a match for him. These two have a history and when she witnesses something she runs. Now 2-years later Axel has found her and is determined to bring her home. Now Kelsey is in danger and Axel will protect her by any mean necessary. This is a well written story which is a fast paced, action packed tale which is filled with danger, suspense, surprises, explosive chemistry, drama, and love. This is a riveting tale and I cannot wait to read more from this author whose work I recommend for all readers.
This book was so good! Kelsey and Axel were together previously and Kelsey ran, she changed her name, but that didn’t stop Axel from finding her. She’s in danger and he will do anything it takes to protect her. The attraction and chemistry between Axel and Kelsey is intense! I loved how protective Axel was of Kelsey. The Savage Brothers are just so dang intense and hot! With non stop action, suspenseful moments, and explosive chemistry, this book made for an amazing read and one I highly recommend. I’m so looking forward to reading Zane’s book!
It’s been awhile since I’ve read anything by this author but the epicness of her book Revenge has still stuck with me after all this time so was excited to dive in the next standalone of the series.
This book starts with a bang and doesn’t let up. Yes it might be a fast paced and quick read but boy does it pack a punch. I was riveted yet again from cover to cover. Can’t say much else as so much happens in such happens in quick succession, but definitely a must read with characters and plot you will adore.

Redemption (Revenge Series #2) by Christine Besze
I received this book from the author for an honest review.
OHHH YEAH!! I have been waiting for this book. I will say you need to read book 1 to fully understand the story here. I know the blurb says it is a standalone, but I would advise reading book 1 to not be a little lost in the story.
First up can I say the ladies in the story are AMAZING and strong. They are just the right women these broken men need to be whole again. Who doesn’t love an alpha man who but also doesn’t love a strong female to help said male?? If you love that then you will love this series.
The Savage Brothers are so hot!! I mean yup I will take one. Axel and Kelsey were together in the past, but she got scared and ran. Welp Axel is Mr. Protective and is not going to let her go! Kelsey is in trouble and the brothers are going to go and save her from the drama and action to happen in the story.
Serious the chemistry was amazing and I can’t wait for the next brothers book to hit my kindle!!
This was a good second chance story. Kelsey and Axel ignite the pages with their attraction and tension but eventually the string snaps and it makes for some intense, hot sex. The story centered around Kelsey who seems to be the center of a storm that will destroy families and alliances. Axel will do whatever he has to do to protect her. The Savage brothers are a force to be reckoned with and they fiercely protect their own. I need to go back and read Asher and Charlee’s story and I an excited about Zane and Kennedy. The action was non stop from cover to cover which made it a fast read.
” You matter. You matter more than anyone in my ‘freaking’ (sp) life.” ~ Axel
Redemption is a fabulous second chance romance. This is Axel and Kelsey’s story. The Savage brothers are at it again and this time saving Kelsey from danger she has no idea is coming. I love how protective Axel is of Kelsey. Their chemistry is hot. You get why Kelsey is not so trustworthy when it comes to Axel for what happened in Revenge book one of the Revenge series. Axel and his brothers stop at nothing to keep everyone safe. The Revenge Series keeps getting better and better. I can’t wait for Zane’s book to come next.
Book 2 in a ‘stand alone’ series. While there may be some pieces absent from the first book, I followed along just fine and loved the pace, action, suspense and secrets that are rolled into Redemption. The Savage boys are intense to say the least. Kelsey is coming to terms with the last couple years of her life as it all comes to a head. Are her doubts about her and Axel just a bump in the road or a legit road block? Then there’s everything else that was kept from her that she just discovers, how will all that play out? It’s a good read and left me wanting more. I can’t wait for Zane’s book and will be going back to devour Asher’s book next!

Great story that will leave you breathless with worry and all the action is off the charts. We pick up a little after book one ended. So we are familiar with our characters and what they are all about. This time we are focused on Kelsey and Alex although we do indeed get to see a lot of our characters from book one in the way of the family.
I love how interwoven the story is but that it gives us a whole lot of new action and suspense to figure out plus some new drool worthy hotties get mixed in. The boys are still just as alpha as always and our ladies just as tough and strong as from the beginning but they all have moments of weakness and fears that when shared get a little less.
One of the things I really like about this series is that although our ladies make our men stronger and give them a purpose they don’t fully “heal” them from their past. Some things can get better or less for all our characters in this story but they don’t go completely away and I feel like that is more honest then “oh I found love and am healed in every way”. Works of fiction or not it makes the story more enjoyable when you can have a sense of the believable in its characters.
Bravo to our author for a story that is truly a romantic suspense with all the parts that make it great!
