He’s everything she didn’t know she wanted. She’s everything he thought he could never have. The last thing I expect when I walk into The Hawkeye Club is to fall head over heels in lust. It’s supposed to be a rescue mission. I have to get my baby sister off the pole, into some clothes, and out of the grasp of the pussy peddler who somehow manipulated her into stripping. But the moment I see … the moment I see Savage Hawke and verbally spar with him, my ability to remain rational flies out the window and my libido takes center stage. I’ve never wanted a relationship—my time is better spent focusing on taking down the scum running this city—but what I want and what I need are apparently two different things.
Danika Eriksson storms into my office in her high heels and on her high horse. Her holier-than-thou attitude and accusations should offend me, but instead, I can’t get her out of my head or my heart. Her incomparable drive, take-no-prisoners attitude, and blatant honesty captivate me and hold me prisoner. I should steer clear, but my self-preservation instinct is apparently dead—which is exactly what our relationship will be once she knows everything. It’s only a matter of time.
The truth doesn’t always set you free. Sometimes, it just royally screws you.

Okay, love the book obviously since I brought the whole series. Now this is gonna sound like I’m shaming but Danika? Yeah she turn me off a lot, yes I get it I’m a woman, I’m independent, but her behavior was appalling to me, others might not agree but that’s how I feel. I really enjoy the book but I could do without Danika’s behavior. Other than that I’d still give it five stars and recommend it, why? My opinion is not the only one that matters, other readers could find it’s great and love everything about the book, so all and all well done.
Loved it…start to finish!
Loved it! Touching story with some surprising elements. I will definitely read works from this author again.
Great storyline!
This is definitely a fun read with steamy scenes and unexpected developments. Recommended for fans of the genre and the series.
Loved this book. Like all the books in this series, but Savage is my favorite.
Such a great book. Nothing like I expected and everything I could hope for in a romance. The Hero’s name alone had me so intrigued. I loved him and the heroine. The chemistry between them was off the charts! Wow. And they were so different from what I’m used to and I was so moved by their flaws, their tragic pasts and how they came together, found love and their well-deserved happy ending.
Captivating and Intense
This was my first book by this author and I am all in! I enjoyed every minute of it. It was so much more than I was expecting. Love the twists. There are a lot of I didn’t see that coming moments in this story!!! Gotta Love Danika and her lack of filter. This book is super hot and at times funny. I think the supporting character is hot too! Can’t wait to read his story. It is a great start to a series I can’t wait to read them all! Definitely a must read.

Savage Collision is the first book in the Hawke Family Novels and an exceptional debut novel by Gwyn McNamee. This is an intoxicatingly steamy romance, with a good dose of suspense, mystery, danger and intrigue. This book has so much going on with-in it, I am finding it almost impossible to do the book justice, without giving away any spoilers. But, here goes…..
Danika Eriksson (Dani) is an Investigative Reporter who is extremely passionate and driven. Nothing gets in the way of a good story, her career is her life. But she doesn’t have time for a relationship. Instead she gets what she ‘needs’ from frequent one-night-stands and her B.O.B.
Savage Hawke owns several restaurants and the Hawkeye Club, an upscale and classy Gentleman’s Club. He prides himself on his strong work ethic, impeccable reputation and professionalism. Get set for the sparks to fly when these two meet!!!
This book is amazing, with the plot twisting and turning so effectively, I was firmly held in the story’s grip- completely hooked from the very first page. I couldn’t put it down, totally immersed in the story, page-after-page. This book is an experience of sensory overload- it had me yelling at my kindle; things like “No!” “No-way!” and “O.M.G!” … Then there were points where I caught myself reading with a big goofy grin on my face. On other occasions my tears were streaming so fast, I couldn’t see. Then there was the electrifyingly HOT bedroom (office, Lounge, car…) action that set my Kindle (and Panties) on fire and had me chewing my lip avidly. Phew!!!!
Gwyn McNamee has found her place firmly on my favourite author list, with this outstanding and truly enjoyable novel. I will be waiting expectantly for her next offering!!!
Congratulations, Gwyn McNamee- you hit this one out-of-the-park!!!!
I loved Savage & Dani. She walks in all in charge, and Savage is captivated. This book surprised me, and that is seriously hard to do. I can’t wait to read about the whole family.
Danika Eriksson is an investigative reporter for the Times looking/working on the next big story. She is a strong, independent, beautiful woman that goes after what she wants, whether it’s in regards to her personal life/goals or her professional one. She has no time for relationships, but does love sex! A lot!
Savage Hawke owns The Hawkeye Club, an upper-class gentlemen’s club, where Danika’s sister Nora happens to work at. He is an alpha, hot, strong and likes to have control of everything around him at all times. He hasn’t wanted a relationship in a really long time.
And this is where the story gets hot…. when Danika strides into Savage’s office to give him a piece of her mind. That one action, that one day, that one moment of time puts everything into motion for the two of them.
This story has everything you want in a read – strong characters (including the secondary ones), secrets, drama, sex (and lots of it) and a little on the suspenseful side. It was a fun, exciting, sexy read! Parts of the story were pretty emotional when they decided to peel back their layers, but overall a good read!
This was a random find that I found free and thought fuck it let me try it. Sometimes you need to read a book to break your arcs and the books you need to read and this the book for it. You meet savage the strip joint owner/ business owner and Danika a journalist for the times.
When Danika approaches savage for hiring her sister as a stripper she doesn’t expect to be attractive to him, she is there to abuse him but you feel every moment between these two. That whole seen makes you laugh because what she excepts isn’t what she gets instead she meets a charming and honest man. I couldn’t stop reading this book it has everything funny, heart breaking, sexy and swoon worthy moments. Revelations are made but will that keep these two together.
You really fight for them to be together. One tortured soul with a past and the other never having been in a relationship. A lot stands in front of them but when the going gets tough they choose love. I’m so glad I got to read an author I have never read before because now I found a new author to love. There are another three books in the series that I need to demolish about savages siblings.
This is a dislike to lovers romance that will keep you wanting more.
First book with this author and I am so excited I took a chance on this book. Absolutely love Savage and Dani relationship. The pain, the emotional struggle Savage has is written so beautifully. Love Dani strong independent character but the need for love she didn’t know she needed. Can’t wait to read about the entire Savage family.
This is my first book by Gwyn McNamee but certainly won’t be my last! This book was a 5 star read all the way! I loved it! Savage is amazing! He and Dani are fire together! I love the Hawks family and can’t wait to devour the rest of the series!
Savage collision is filled with suspense, love, sadness, regret and fright. There were moments that I wanted to cry with the characters or times where I was on the edge of my seat waiting to see what was going to happen.
Danika is an investigative reporter who goes on the war path when she finds out that he baby sister has dropped out of school and is now working at a gentlemens club for Savage Hawke. Danika is a woman who is a force to be reckoned with. Savage is just a man who has had disastrous things happen to him in past, and thinks that he living life again. That is until Danika busts her way into his life, starting with tearing him a new one for hiring her sister at his club. The road for these two is not easy and there are many obstacles for them, but their love is indestructible.
I had to force myself to put this book down to take care of things and to sleep. This book draws you in from the beginning and doesn’t let you go till you get to the end. I can not wait to read the next book in the series.
I would totally recommend this book to all my friends and family
I really enjoyed reading this book! Dani and Savage have chemistry that is off the charts.
Dani is a reporter and Savage is a “business man” and when they meet the battle begins. The story is full of twists and turns that keeps you engaged.
Thank you for the privilege of reading this book! Well done!
Talk about a book hangover. I was up until about 2 am just wanting to finish the book. This is one of those books that you just keep reading to get to the end, but don’t really want it to end. There were twists and turns that I didn’t see coming. An amazing book.
Savage Collision is the first book in the Hawke Family series. Savage and Danika’s story is great and a definite must read. Danika meets Savage when she tries to save her sister from working as a stripper at The Hawkeye Club. Savage is the owner and boy did he get a surprise when Danika walked into his office. The chemistry between Danika and Savage is scorching hot! I love it when a strong female character challenges the hot sexy alpha male. Danika is my kind of girl she speaks her mind and doesn’t put up with crap. Can Savage handle a woman like Danika? Or will the secret Savage has been keeping tear them apart? This book was well written, the characters are great and the side characters definitely need their own books. This was an amazing debut novel for this author and I’m ready for book two. Luckily I already had Tortured Skye on my kindle ready to go.
Do yourself a huge favor and read this book. So many omg moments, your head will do three sixties. Dani storms into Savage’s life like a Hurricane. One that there is no coming back from.
Dani never expected to find herself feeling the way she begins to after storming into Savage’s office.
Let the Hawke Clan take you on one Hell of an epic ride
Savage Collision by Gwynn McNamee
Five Stars
Savage is dreamy. A bad boy with so many soft spots. I couldn’t seem to put this one down. Dani was so out spoken and unapologetic. I enjoyed watching them together. Reading their growth. Not only as individuals but as a couple. Savage had to trust and Dani had to give patience. The author really has something going with this family. The characters are all string and independent but better together. I couldn’t live looking over my shoulders. I would die from stress. But these characters handle it well.
