Lots of action, steamy romance and intense scenes that keep you on the edge! Loved Lindley and Kyla’s story that actually began when they were children. Kyla has to find him when his sister, Sage, is sold by their father to another monster. Kyla finds out that all of what she was told that Lindley did before forcibly leaving the pride was false. Now they have to work together to get Sage back from the monster and they both realize they are mates. Definitely a great read!
Holy smokes! I loved the intensity that is Lindley! He’s brooding and struggles with life, his past and struggles with the loss of his family. Kyla is strong and I enjoyed their connection. There are great moments to bite your nails and I loved every second of it. It’s a great read in a great series!

Intriguing and engaging storyline you find yourself drawn into the story and have to keep reading. The characters are so amazing well written you feel like you are there with them. If you enjoy paranormal books you’ll enjoy this one. I can’t wait to read the next book by this author
Absolutely captivating. Ms. Lane is one of those extremely talented authors who has the ability to take a thought and weave a tale that is so intriguing, that it is almost impossible for the reader to put it down, and she has certainly proven this with Savage Claim. The characters are complex, yet down to earth, easy to love and hate, depending on which one it is. The tale itself is well paced, full of excitement and action, with lots of love growing along the way. All in all, an absolute gem to read. Loved it!
I was gifted a copy of this book and am providing my honest opinion.
SAVAGE CLAIM is the second book in the Lion Hearts series. Though each will stand on its own, I recommend reading them and their sister brother series, the Black Claw Ranch.
Though life has been difficult for Sage, Kyla, and the rest of the women in the lion packs for the last ten years, Kyla knows when time has run out she has no choice but to run. Between the misogynistic attitudes, the stalkers, the kidnapping, and the abuse, it’s not hard to understand why Kyla’s lion would hide within her; She has spent years learning to hide within her own mind. When her lion finally releases her claws, it’s even more satisfying!
Lindley started his adulthood on the run, labeled a murderer. He saved his own life, and has such a strong survivor’s guilt that it has become near debilitating. This is PTSD!
I loved the growth and strength that both of these lion loves showed in their second chance romance.
I can’t wait to see the rest of this clan pairing off with the perfect mates for each of them.
Note: While I received this book as a gifted ARC via Booksprout, my opinions are my own and are given freely.

This is the second book in series and was just as good as the first one! Lindley is having trouble finding his sister and her best friend Kyla, who he had always liked…Kyla has escaped from her pack running to find him to help find his sister who was forced into a bad mating. All kinds of trouble follow them….Great storyline with awesome characters. You don’t have to read the first one but it helps to understand the story. Now can’t wait for Dash’s story!!
This highly-suspenseful lion shifter romance is definitely worth reading & it keeps the reader’s attention from the beginning until the end. The well-developed characters are interesting & quite unique in their individuality although one of them is inclined to be regretful & does not trust himself while the other one is determined to escape from an intolerable future. The plot is intriguing with some unexpected situations or occurrences.
There is: a strong-willed female lioness (Kyla) goes on the run to look for help only to literally run into a male lion shifter (Lindley Levine) who was banished, Lindley’s sister (Sage) who was sold to a old enemy (Jasper), Lindley’s despicable father & alpha (Roland), lion shifters, humans, pride politics, a lion consortium, pride rivalry, mates, friendship, action, adventure, twists & turns, secrets, intrigue, drama, devastating memories, devious intentions, threats, enemies, danger, confrontations, abduction, violence, conflict, injuries, death, distrust, regrets, manipulations, compromises, promises, hope, contentment, some steam & a wonderful, happy epilogue with a interesting ending. I would recommend this shifter romance to people who enjoyed reading this genre.
Lindley Levine is a ruined wannabe alpha. He’s a mess. Drinking, fighting and fing drown out his inner demons and his lion. His father, a lion alpha, did a mental number on him.
Kyla is his mate he ghosted on after a kiss. She’s very docile, maybe too much so.
Pack drama. Inner turmoil for Lindley.
I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review. Lindley levine a lion shifter after being banished from Levine pride and more in line of problems he is dealing with the consortium pitting shifters against humans .then to find out that his sister is being sold and mated to jasper his enemy and that’s not even the half of it he needs to even protect his mate. Awesome story this has a lot going on in this book.
The Crowley pride may be few in members but they are determined. Beta or second Lindley is a strong personality but his past tortures him. When one of his biggest regrets from his past comes looking for him he has to step up. Kyla and all of the females in the Levine pride have been beaten down, can she reclaim her strong shifter attitude? From the moment we start this story with Kyla and Sage I could feel their pain, but they still had an underlying strength. That strength fuels so much angst. The big baddies drive the action, feeding the overarching plot. Will the consortium be brought down? Can Lindley and Kyla claim each other for mates?
One of the roughest of the clan finally gets his mate.
It was hard to read how the females were treated even though in some cases it just made them stronger.
As in Kyla’s case she finally came into herself and found her inner cat.
A hard book to put down once started and I am looking forward to the next installation.
Will be interested to read of any of the other female lionesses making their way into their new lives.
Actually, just enjoying reading all of this author’s work, keeps me interested and wanting more each book.
