Something wicked hot this way comes.SLADEI was a Marine. An operative. A hardcore soldier. Something brought me to the Blood Legion MC in New Orleans, and now I’m a biker. Whatever drew me here is bigger than my own baggage, and it isn’t the CIA, or Force-Recon, or anyone else. There’s a pull. Her name is Grace. She’s missing, possibly because of the MC and our haphazard raid on the White Lair. … because of the MC and our haphazard raid on the White Lair. Grace is my new mission. An op. Nothing more.
Until I finally locate the gorgeous woman who has built an even bigger barricade around herself than I have, and I realize I’ll never be free of her.
GRACE
I don’t want to be found. Not by anyone. Not anymore. Not after what’s been done to me against my will. As if enslavement at the White Lair wasn’t enough.
It seems I don’t have a choice. I have a new client. He’s dark-browed, big all over, and broody beyond belief. This Killian Slade doesn’t force me. He doesn’t ask me to strip. He pays extra each time and he doesn’t even touch me. When he finds out the truth, he’ll hate me as much as I hate myself. Yet I can’t stop the hot hammering of my pulse where I’d only ever been hurt and used before—there’s a yearning to be with this singular man.
I want to wake up from this nightmare, but the nightmare is just beginning.
BLOOD LEGION MC:
Cry Mercy
Save Grace
No Saint
more
This was such a good story. After the events in book one, Slade is on a mission to find Mercy’s friend, Grace. When he finally gets the lead he needed he is shocked and surprised by what he discovers, but changes his mission to now be dead set on rescuing Grace and bringing her home. All while the pair seem to be falling for each other. I’m not saying anything else plot wise as it may spoiler it.
I really enjoyed this and can’t wait to see what’s going to happen next. I’m so glad I found this series and yet again I find it to be a 5 star read.
4.5 stars
Despite this being one of my favorite genres, each MC and author are so very different. Having never read Rie Warren, I didn’t know what to expect with the Blood Legions MC but I fell in love. My favorite MCs are the rebels WITH a cause and boy does Killian have a cause!
Killian’s on a mission to disrupt every sex trafficking ring in Louisiana, save every woman he can and give them a future; his firebrand in this mission is a woman named Grace. After barely saving his friend, Mercy, from the unspeakable trauma she endured at the hands of a New Nazi group, Killian vows to find the woman she befriended inside. When he learns she was sold as a prostitute to a brothel in NOLA, the former Force Recon / ex-CIA operative goes hunting.
Grace stopped believing in fairytales and heroes a long time ago and has resolved herself to her abusive fate. So when Killian shows up determined to “save” her, she knows it’ll never work out. Considering herself beyond redemption and not wanting anyone else to get hurt, especially the innocent, she’ll sacrifice herself. But despite all the atrocities she’s endured at the hands of men, she finds herself inexplicably attracted to Killian. Even knowing she can never truly have him, it can’t hurt to finally give herself a piece of happiness, right?
This book was heartbreakingly beautiful. Killian and Grace have both tragic and triumphant backstories and it made me root for their HEA even more. The story is a slow build but the love isn’t; with almost an insta-love quality, you feel their connection from their first interaction. While I did struggle with the sex trafficking aspect (especially given the reality of it these days) and felt the love story would’ve been harder won in real life, I genuinely loved this story. I especially loved the madam character and the dynamics between the brothers of the MC; they were quite welcome levity. Can’t wait to go back and read Mercy’s story!

If you have not read book 1, I really suggest it so that you have a better understanding of how things go with Blood Legion MC.
This book had me just as wrapped into it as book 1. I could not get my hands on book 2 fast enough to read it. You will not want to miss Slade & Grace’s story. She wants to run & not be found, he is determined to find her. I can not wait for the next book!
Wow, what can I say about this book. It was so amazing and was so emotional. When Mercy asks Slade to promise to find Grace he will do anything to fulfill that promise. Little does Slade know that Grace will change his life. I loved this story so much!!! Highly recommend this book and series.
5 Slade Filled Stars!!!
FINALLY!!! I’ve been waiting for Killian Slade’s story since waaaay back since The Bad Boys Of Retribution MC and he’s been around since. When I finished Storm I’d been upset bc Slade was staying behind and joining The Blood Legion MC and becoming Angel’s VP. I’m glad Rie decided to write this MC bc I’ve waited a long time for his story.
Ever since The Blood Legion MC saved Mercy from her horrible family Slade has been on a task to fulfill a promise he made to Mercy and that’s to find her friend Grace and bring her home safe and sound. But, it’s been months and he can’t find anything.
That’s a hard pill for him to swallow. Slade was a Marine and also in the CIA and special forces for awhile. He’s lost people before, seen people die right before his eyes. Him and Bo were kidnapped and tortured almost to death. Slade refuses to loose Grace. He’ll do anything to find her.
When Slade gets a tip on where grace could be he tells no one. He’s not sure what he’s walking into and wants to know everything. Slade walks into the brothel Grace was sold into preparing for the worst and instead got something that confused him more. He’ll do anything to gain Grace’s trust and get her to safety. No matter who he has to call in as backup.
Grace is taking everyday as they come. Her life might not be as bad as it was at The White Lair, but she’s still somebody’s prisoner. She must do what they say.
When Killian Slade walked into her room and didn’t want her to sleep with him but to talk Grace’s nerves spiked. When he mentions Mercy’s name Grace knows she must get him to leave. There’s too many other peoples lives at risk and Grace doesn’t think she’s worth the risk.
Even though she tells him to leave she’s glad he comes back. Even though he’s paying a hefty price just to talk to her. Grace is enjoying her time with Slade even though she knows when she tells him all her secrets he’ll leave and not return.
This story is nonstop from beginning to end. Both Grace and Slade have had terrible pasts and they don’t think they’re worthy of redemption or being loved. They do what they think is best for the other people in their lives even if they get hurt.
Both knows there’s a lot at risk. Grace has her reasons for continuing doing this day after day. Slade might get it but he doesn’t accept it and isn’t afraid to ask for help.
This definitely isn’t a topic that everybody can read. I don’t have any triggers. But, if you do be careful going into this story. Rie wrote grace and Slade’s story right.
Slade has been around for soooo long and you really don’t know much of his story except for what you learn when reading Bo’s story. Slade has always kinda been the man, the myth and the legend. Now you know his story and yet he’s still the man, the myth and definitely the legend.
Can’t wait for the rest of these Blood Legion MC hotties to get their HEA.
Save Grace was an awesome addition to Rie Warren’s new MC series Blood Legion. Killian Slade has made appearances in a few of Rie’s previous books but you do not have to have read them to read this one. I completely fell in love with Killian from the start with his determination to find and save Grace. There is some dark subject matter in this book but it also has hot Alpha males, hilarious man-bun wearing hipsters and tough women who can overcome hard lives. I highly recommend this book and series.
This Is the second book in the series and I’m falling for these characters more and more. These bikers are over protective to say the least, loyalty, love, brotherhood is their top thing. Yes, they are crude, rude, dangerous, and definitely annoying but they will go above and beyond for their loved ones. Grace survived a lot, she never gave up, her child came first no matter what, Grace is the epitome of a survivor. Well done Miss Rie Warren, you definitely got my attention with this series!
What a heart wrenching story this was!The story had you engrossed from the very first pages.The story was full of pain and one of acceptance but, one man fought for the both of them and for the women he loved to be free and failing was not an option.
Killian and Grace had one of the oddest courtship that I have read about but, it was cute in an endearing sort of way as Killian fought to gain Grace’s trust in order get her our for the life she is currently living because poor Grace was traded and sold into sexual slavery yet again.
Grace we met in book one where she was forced to whore herself by a group of horrible people but, she also got caught up in the war between the MC and White Lair and just disappeared but, not forgotten but, yet again Grace has been thrown into yet again other sick game her master is now playing but, this time around she might not survive once its played out.
I loved Grace and Killian together as Killian wore his heart on his sleeve the entire time and they had amazing chemistry together . My heart bleed for Grace time and time again and not only for what she had survived so far but, for the pain that was coming her way yet again.
Killian and Grace had chemistry but, they also had a amazing friendship that developed into so much more.We loved that Killian courted Grace in the only way he could even if it was a bit unconventional but it was a bunch of firsts for Grace her first kiss,first date and first love and something that was freely given between a couple who genuinely cared for one another.
Overall all the story was full of suspense and had drama and villainous characters and one whooping big surprise that you never saw coming.The story was one big emotional roller coaster for both the reader and its characters.We enjoyed it.
We are enjoying this series and looking forward to our next read.
4 stars form us
Killian took it on himself to search for Grace–the one woman they didn’t save in the raid to rescue Mercy (His MC Prez woman) and the other women held against their will. The MC helped the other women settle into a new future. Except for Grace. Now that was his mission. Ex-Marine/CIA agent–he refuses to fail.
Grace has a new life. She’s clean. She has her own room. In other ways, it is worse than the prison of sex slaves she had been. She’s still in the “business”. She still hates being touched but her reason for staying is different. No one from her old life, Mercy, wouldn’t want her if they knew. So she doesn’t make any effort to escape. She does what she’s told. What she has to do.
Killian has found her. Why doesn’t he tell Mercy and the club? What is going on with her? Why doesn’t she want him to take her out of there?
The answers are surprising and not easy to deal with. Will Killian and his contacts be able to finally “Save Grace”? Will she live through the ordeal?
This is steamy hot. Characters any MC lover will want to know more about. The other MC brothers are sometimes a kick, sometimes scary, always loyal. I loved this and the series so far.
You can’t go wrong with the hot alpha who is driven to protecting those in need!
Grace was definitely someone who needed help, but that doesn’t mean she isn’t strong and determined. She just needed to find a way out of her situation without putting her baby in jeopardy and Killian is just the guy to be able to help. She just has to allow him to help.
Killian and Grace’s relationship starts with a slow burn that turns intense and hot in a very short period of time. They are good for each other. Killian has a heart of gold when it comes to her and her baby and when Grace finally puts her faith in him the sparks fly and they each find their happily ever after, together!
Killian Slade is one tough, stoic dude. Determined to find Mercy’s friend Grace who seems to have disappeared into thin air. Once he finds her, how will he save her? And does she want to be saved?
What an intense book! Killian and Grace’s journey is full of suspense and passion! I was hooked from the beginning. Twists and turns you won’t see coming but will have you on the edge of your seat! You will be rooting for these two so hard. An absolute must read! I loved every single sexy, intense, emotional, and hot word! 5 stars!
Killian is on a mission to save women from the sex trafficking trade, especially his friend Mercy’s best friend Grace. Grace is a victim of the sex trafficking trade and has a child being held hostage to keep her compliant with the White Lair MC’s plans. Killian made a vow to protect Grace at all costs. Will his vow change the very face of New Orleans and can he save Grace from her own demons?
I received a copy of this book and am leaving a review.
Ok this book gets filed under dark romance. I race through reading it because I became so anxious. I actually like that. I know, don’t judge me (haha). In this story you definitely see characters suffering psychology trauma. It amazes me when you see the power it has over someone. It was so intense.
Grace and Killion are so delicious together. Color me surprised but the backdrop of a whorehouse worked. I wasn’t sure initially about a character that ran it. Not because of who they were but because I was questioning who was trustworthy. I was wrong to have any misgivings. OMG I have a ridiculous smile on my face just thinking about this person. Read the book and tell me what you think?! (wink). I have to admit, I thought the story was headed in a certain direction, dang it, I was right. My momma bear showed up and I wanted kick some booty. Yep i was slightly over invested (hee hee).
This wouldn’t be a Rie Warren book if she didn’t continually heap buckets of angst into it. Love that and wasn’t disappoint by this one. Oh the teaser at the end about a possible next book, nice job Ms Warren. I can’t wait to get my hands on that one. Happy Reading Everyone!

When Slade walks into her room and uncovers her identity will she be able to resist the pull between them? The slow simmering heat that is building cannot be ignored. Will Grace let her self be saved from the horrors she deals with? Will Slade be her saving Grace?

4.5 “She gives him Grace” Stars
Slade is on a mission to locate Grace for Mercy, after they failed to find her. They’ve tried everything they can think of…until a lead turns into a solid gold trail
Her circumstances are better than Slade expects when he finally finds Grace, but he knows something doesn’t add up about where she is and why she’s staying and he’s up to the challenge to find out what she’s hiding and help her
A great story with twists I didn’t see coming, that kept me glued to the pages until the very end. Looking forward to Saint’s story next
What a terrific addition to this series. If you read book 1 in the series, Cry Mercy, you know that Mercy’s good friend, Grace is missing. The night the Blood Legion, stormed the White Lair and saved Mercy and the other girls being held there, Grace was nowhere to be found. Killian has made it his mission to find her; simply because Mercy asked him to. Killian has hunted for Grace for months. When Killian finally finds her, he is stunned by her beauty and strength. He wants to help her escape and bring her home but Grace has her reasons for staying and won’t accept his help. As for Grace the more the handsome Killian returns to see her, the more her walls cave. But Grace knows she can’t let him help her. Visit after visit Killian is determined to change her mind. But can he? What is holding Grace back, why won’t she accept his help?
The author has written a wonderful storyline that held me captive from start to finish with dialogue that made me feel like I was right there in the middle of everything, watching it go down right in front of me. The characters captured my heart and refused to let go. Grace is strong and such a survivor. Killian is fierce, determined and yet very kind hearted once you get to know him.
Saving Grace has all the elements I love in an MC story: excitement, crazy MC banter, suspense, intrigue and romance. I highly recommend this sensational heartwarming addition to the series. In fact, if you haven’t started the series, grab up both Cry Mercy and Saving Grace, you won’t regret the phenomenal ride. 2 Thumbs Up and 5 stars.
This is the second book in this phenomenal series. Slade is on a mission to find Grace, and when he tracks her down at a brothel, things do not go to plan. Grace is determined to live her nightmare of a life and protect others, and she does not want rescuing as she feels she is beyond redemption. This is a well written flawless story, which is intriguing, and with twists, angst, drama, and love, which all had me captivated throughout this addictive page turner, and I recommend for all MC lovers.
This was such a good story. After the events in book one, Slade is on a mission to find Mercy’s friend, Grace. When he finally gets the lead he needed he is shocked and surprised by what he discovers, but changes his mission to now be dead set on rescuing Grace and bringing her home. All while the pair seem to be falling for each other. I’m not saying anything else plot wise as it may spoiler it.
I really enjoyed this and can’t wait to see what’s going to happen next. I’m so glad I found this series and yet again I find it to be a 5 star read.
As always, this Author has blown me away. Grace has had such a horrid experience and when Slade finds her, she doesn’t want to be found. She has been forced into so much and all she wants is safety. Slade knows that she is confused but he will stop at nothing to make her safe and keep her happy. Excellent writing with a storyline that will leave you wanting so much more.
This book is about Killian and Grace. Killian is a marine who has helped saving woman from sex trafficking. Grace is a woman who he and his team have been trying to find. This is not your typical damsel in distress story. Grace is a very strong heroine who has been through a lot and “plays” by the rules that are made for her. Killian is enamored with Grace and makes it his mission to save her. Their relationship starts out very unconventional, and is a nice slow burn.
Now for the reason for the 3.5 stars… I’m all about reading MC books, but I really didn’t get that vibe with this book. Yes we get some of the other brothers, but nothing was really MC related in it. I did enjoy the secondary characters especially Mistress Bunny. I think everyone needs a Mistress Bunny I their corner.
Please don’t let my review away you, because I know not everyone likes to read the same things. The storyline had a lot of potential, it just fell short for me.
