Exchanged against his money ?
I really liked this story, it could have been even longer to know what some characters become then.
It’s a beautiful romance for two characters who would never have met if they had not experienced dramas in their past.
After the suicide of his twin brother, Rémy joined the army, then he became a famous tattoo artist in a TV show. Scammed by a friend of the army, he tries to get his money back, but the man offers to keep his daughter Olive for two weeks, pledge, the time his ex friend returned the money. Olive is trapped because she only stays to protect her mother so that her father does not kill her. Rémy is not particularly pleased with this situation in which a woman is exchanging and he does not understand the situation and thinks she is also a scammer, but very quickly, he discovers the secrets and talent of Olive, and he will do everything to protect her.

Simon asked Remy, his brother, if he ever wanted to get away from it all, to Africa or another planet? They didn’t even have their driver’s license yet and Simon was having these odd thoughts. In fact, he’d been acting this way for a few weeks actually. Remy asked him what was bothering him. Simon tried a couple of times, but he couldn’t get the words out. Remy just wanted his brother to be happy and enjoy life. Simon got to his feet and headed out of the park. By the time Remy got up and followed, his brother was out of sight. But Remy got a feeling something bad was going to happen. He had to find Simon. An almost physical blow hit his stomach and took him to his knees – and he felt a piece of his soul die. Simon Anders was gone.
Remy met Luke for drinks since he had no more appointments at his tattoo parlor. It was Remy’s 31st birthday, but his friends knew he didn’t like to celebrate ever since his brother’s suicide. Luke, currently a businessman, told Remy he saw their old army lieutenant, Victor Chaminga, who was looking for investors in his latest scam. Remy didn’t tell him that he had already paid the con man a quarter of a million dollars! Luke said Victor had already taken half their Army unit for hundreds of thousands of dollars! Luke had his wife check into Victor’s background and what he was actually doing was running drugs for some very dangerous thugs! He warned Remy again to avoid him. But Remy had just lost a big chunk of his life savings and, though it wouldn’t crush him, he was angry that the man put one over on him.
Remy was now determined to get his money back. What he hadn’t expected was for Victor to offer his own daughter as collateral! He had been forcing Olive to do what he said by keeping her mother on drugs and threatening to do her harm if Olive didn’t obey. So now he was treating her like a commodity he could use in his sick games. She was being traded for his debt, to allegedly help Remy at his business in whatever way was required. Olive was so disgusted; she looked up at Remy expected his leer but instead saw the same disgust on his face! Her father took her aside to tell her she would stay with him, so whatever he wanted for as long as he wanted – or her mother would suffer. Remy gave Victor two weeks, then walked out the door, Olive forced by her father to follow him. She swore to herself this was the last time. When the two weeks was up, she would get her mother away from him for good. But what will she do when Victor can’t return the money in two weeks? What will she do when she, the “collateral”, now becomes Remy’s property? Now who will save her mother? And who will save her?
This was a good story, with characters well defined for the roles they would play in the story line. What would happen to Olive, caught in the middle of her father’s disastrous dealings? Grab your copy and catch up on the suspense!
I loved this book from the very beginning. It was sad but sweet. Remy and Olive make a great couple. They both grew strong through adversity but, did not loose their morals. I loved this book so much I could not put it down and read it in one sitting. The story flowed with ease and great words. This book will stay with me for a while. I find myself thinking about it even though three days have gone by since I finished it. I recommend that you read this book you will not be disappointed. I look forward to reading more from this author.

Exceptionally descriptive and emotional, this contemporary romance is a sure MUST-READ!
An amazing character study into the wonders only available when two are thrown together by the disastrous choices of one man and yet find within the mayhem a soul mate. It’s not enough that Remy and Olive had first impressions of each other that were COMPLETELY off base, tainted by what they each saw as a fatal flaw in the other. Nor is it enough that the chemistry and sexual tensions between them are so strong that everyone around them can feel it. Also, it’s not enough that she has plans and he has plans but then life happens. None of it is enough, . . . until it is, enough. Once again, author Cloe Fischer offers her readers an outstanding romance, this time of the hate to love trope, that will both curl their toes with STEAM and entertain them for hours. “REVENGE FORSAKEN” is a contemporary romance of EPIC proportions. It brings together some of the most loved, most controversial, and tragic markers of the early 21st Century culture into one action-packed and romantic storyline that took hold of this reader on page one and did not release its hold until the very last word. Author Fischer is growing into a wordsmith of talent with the release of her latest novella, “REVENGE FORSAKEN.” So, readers, take note and make “REVENGE FORSAKEN” your next romance purchase. I volunteered to read a copy of “REVENGE FORSAKEN” and this is my honest voluntary review. Because of its length, “REVENGE FORSAKEN” has earned 4½ out of 5 stars and a MUST-READ recommendation!

So, I gave this book a 3 1/2 star, the title was misleading. There was no revenge anywhere in this story.. Remy is a broken man but has pushed on with his life after his twin brother committed suicide. Olive is under the thumb of her father, he is a very bad man and is keeping her mother addicted to drugs and alcohol.
Olive is used as collateral for a debt owed by her father to Remy, Remy will hold onto Olive until her page off his debt, but of course the father will skip town. But in the meantime a romance will start between these two.
3 1/2 Stars
Remy’s tormented past dealing with the loss of his twin brother has him suspicious and on edge. Finding out that he had been swindled by Victor was the last straw and he wanted revenge.
Olive was the sweet and innocent pawn in this story. Emotionally abused by her controlling and bullying father, she lived her life manipulated by him, with her broken mother used as incentive to obey.
Thank goodness Remy finally realized that he was taking out his anger on innocent Olive.
Once Remy realized the way Olive had been existing, his protective instincts kicked in and steamy scenes ensued.
The author created an intense connection between this couple.

Remy Anders can’t believe he was conned by Victor Chaminga, his former Army lieutenant. When Remy threatens his life if he doesn’t return his money, Chaminga offers his daughter, Olive, as collateral, to which Remy agrees. Afterall, it’s only a temporary arrangement. What starts from a position of distrust grows into so much more.
Actually, would give this 3.5 stars. This is an interesting tale of revenge revised. Remy’s and Olive’s characters are appealing, and the storyline is a quick, easy, potentially engaging read. I did find the descriptive language of the intimate scenes somewhat immature, which, for me, was a bit distracting from the narrative. Overall, this is an enjoyable and entertaining romance.
Wow! Olive’s Dad is such a piece of work and what he does to Remy made me so angry! Remy and Olive’s relationship throughout the book had me all over the place. Will they find happiness?

GREAT READ!
I enjoyed this story very much. At times it was quite moving and intense. The chemistry was fast sexy & hot. A great storyline that was fast paced with some twists and turns along the way that kept me in suspense at times making it hard to put down. The HEA sparked a few chuckles and smiles that helped to lighten the mood from the drop off ending of the story itself helping to fill in some unanswered questions I had in the end making it a well rounded read that I would recommend as an enjoyable suspense filled read.
