He bought me, but not to touch or taste. He bought me to save me, and to atone for past sins.Handsome and mysterious, he swoops in to offer me a new life, but this is no knight in shining armor. He’s cold, hardened by his past. But there’s an inferno underneath the ice, I can feel the heat each time he looks at me—each time he gives in to the desire between us.No matter how much I push to unleash … much I push to unleash the fire in his eyes, he shoves back harder each time. He’s merciless with his cruel words, telling me how naive I am, how little I know of the world.
But I’m stronger than he thinks.
When we face down our demons from the past, I’ll prove which one of us was in need of saving, and which one of us is the savior.

Is there such a thing as the perfect book boyfriend? Because I’m pretty sure Erik Brandt is just that. Everything about him was absolutely perfect. Alpha a-hole: check. Strong and protective: check. Sexy enough to melt a popsicle with a single glance: check. Inner heart that beat solely for the woman he loved: check. I am moving him to the top of my BBF list forever. And Alexandra was so strong. With all the crap life had thrown at her, she proved that she could make her way and still lean on Erik when needed. The storyline of this book was a fast pace that sucked me in and kept my eyes glued to my Kindle until I finished. And I loved all the side characters that were introduced in this book as well as glimpses of characters from previous books. This is definitely one of my favorite books of the year and all time!
Oh God, I just loved, loved, loved this book. I was glued, I found it completely addictive and it was a complete page turner. I was completely lost in Alexandra and Erik’s story. I don’t want to give away too much of the story. It was full of love, passion, betrayal and action. Two unlikely people come together and heal each other. It’s a large age gap story with so much heat, it was off the charts hot. I was new to Fiona in 2018 and started with voyeur and I’m absolutely loving her work. She has become one of my automatic 1-click author’s.I highly recommend Saviour, and give it a well deserved 5 stars.
When Alexandra (Alex) is so hungry and desperate that she resorts to trying to sell her v-card online, she knows it’s a bad idea. But too many nights of no food mean she’s got to do something to earn enough money to live. Luckily for her, Erik comes to her rescue. Erik’s been rescuing women for years now, ever since he failed to rescue his sister, but innocent, naive Alexandra is the first one who’s made him react, made him feel like this. Will he get his head out of his stupid ass and admit those feelings, or continue to act like a total dick and hurt Alex in an effort to contain his feelings?
I liked Savior in the very beginning, and once Erik and Alex became a couple. But in the middle, while he was behaving like a twatwaffle, I have to say I wasn’t very happy with him or the story. I felt like at 30+ he should have been mature enough to handle his feelings better than to force poor Alex to witness and hear him be with other women, all in an attempt to push her away and deny his feelings for her. I honestly felt like DNF’ing at the point when he started doing that, because it was horrifying to read of him hurting her like that. But, I am glad that I pushed through because once they got together, he was a sweetheart – loving, protective and very alpha. I just wish he had behaved more like the adult that he supposedly was. Aside from his lapse into douchecanoe behavior, I thought Savior was engaging reading – sexy, a little suspenseful, and once they got together, Alex and Erik were a great couple!
I couldn’t put this book down! I devoured every page till the end. Savior is an amazing erotic read you don’t want to miss out. There’s so much drama, so much adrenaline and thrills that grips one’s attention till the end. Savior is definitely worth one-clicking!
Sooo satisfying, but I always want more. I’ve been eagerly awaiting the next addition to Fiona Cole’s Voyuer universe. She does not disappoint!! Virgin Alexandra is strong-willed, fierce- the best kind of heroine; but so charming in her niavete. Erik is alpha perfection. And of course Fiona Cole brings the heat like no other author. When it comes to steamy sex that stirs all the feels, no one comes close to Fiona!
What happens when you finally decide at 19 that due to your circumstances the only thing that you have left of value and worth is your virginity ? When Alex places herself on the market for one night she never expects the man at the door to offer her safety, security and a future. Erik has his reasons for attempting to help this young woman and he also realizes he can’t seem to not want to help her . Alex soon realizes that as much as he wants to help the more he backs away emotionally. He is an arrogant handsome protect jerk but she feels such a pull to him and so safe when he is near. The attraction is immediate but his is a slow steady build ….. definitely need more of them !! Such a heartbreaking but fabulous story!!

**ARC REVIEW**
Alexandra finds herself needing a desperate change to her life. She’s tired of struggling everyday and not knowing if she will have enough to eat or even bus fair to be able to work. She’s practically an orphan, having both of her parents deceased and being in the care of her sister who has an addiction issue.
Desperate times calls for desperate measures.. She only has one thing that is absolutely vital to her and at one point priceless, until now. She decides to sell her Virginity..
Erik is trying his best to overcome a guilt that has been weighting on him for some time now. His solution, becoming a Savior. A Savior for women in desperate need of help. In the process he rescues Alexandra and his world turns upside down. He gives her an offer to good to refuse.
In between the chaos of what’s going on in her life, she’s trying her best to make it so much better for herself but the turmoil is just boiling between her and Erik.
Lots of drama, Alpha asshole at it’s best! Sometimes you want to strangle Erik .
I loved this book! I loved how Alex even though she was young she managed to be resilient. Even though life seemed to be knocking her down, she keeps getting back up. Erik is older, and he keeps saving her. She can’t help but love him. Erik couldn’t seem to let her go. I loved how romantic the ending was!
Fast paced, devilishly dirty and hot as freak read. The “forbidden” aspects of this read is what attracted me to the story.
Age-gap, A-Hole Hero, Heroine has some issues…ok I’m in.
Overall, I enjoyed the sexual tension and the scenes together between Alexandra and Erik were hot and kinky as heck.
The premise for Alexandra’s predicament and how she resolves it was what… the freak… am I reading?
Erik’s involvement in said predicament, made him the total douche a-whole and not necessarily in a good way.
The epilogue however, redeemed the whole story.
This is the story of Alexandra and Erik. Alexandra came from a hellish life and decides to sell her virginity to escape. Erik finds out and buys her due to his own motives. These two start out with OW craziness due to Erik’s inability to admit his feelings. Alexandra isn’t your typical virgin, she is determined to have Erik. Erik is an arrogant alpha a**hole but the steam and attraction between these two won’t be denied. A sexy, dirty talking, and protective alpha paired with a sassy, defiant woman is bound to cause trouble. Great read.
4.5 stars for me
Erik and Alexandra are EVERYTHING I love about age gap romance.
He’s definitely an alpha and at times a total asshole BUT he’s got plenty of hot and a dash of kind to make me forgive him.
Alexandra might be a virgin but she’s not your average virgin. Nope. She’s fierce. A little damaged and knows exactly what she wants. Erik!
The two together are explosive. Nobody writes sex scenes like Fiona. There’s always an element of the filthy to them and it’s why she’s a one click author for me. Guaranteed HAF read! Emotions are high in this one, tough subjects are tackled and you get the added bonus of catching up with some favourites from previous books in this series.
Gotta say that this epilogue had me gasping out loud & definitely has me ready for the next book in this series.
This is an action packed, as well as a seductive story.
Alexandra needs to be saved from her pitiful existence – working in a grocery store, not enough money for food, dead parents, and a drug addicted sister. She sees an ad and thinks that the answer to her situation is to sell her virginity…
Enter Erik – a man who has made a business of rescuing women from being kidnapped and used as sex slaves. Usually this isn’t a problem…. but he is entranced and attracted to Alex. He decides to let her live with him, and uses gruffness and snarky comments to hide his attraction.
Read this story to find out if Alexandra can help Erik overcome what has happened to him in the past, and if Erik will give in to Alex’s sweet nature.
Savior is a sexy age-gap romance. Alexandra is a 19 year tired of her living situation. Desperation drives her to sell her virginity. Erik is the businessman who buys Alexandra and saves her. Even though, he wants to protect her, he doesn’t want to be seen as her white knight in shiny armor in her eyes. Therefore, he does everything he can think of to push her away. But Alexandra sees right through him, making things hard for him. Pushing her away may be impossible and Erik realizing that she can save him from his ghosts of the past.
I love a good alphahole and Fiona Cole didn’t disappointed with Erik. He was all kinds of swoony… from his dirty talk to his protective side to his sweet side. Heck, even his possessiveness was sexy. He was also an a-hole. He did things that deserve a slap in the face or at least have a drink thrown at him. Yet, I found myself loving him. Erik was having new feelings he didn’t know how to handle. I got why he acted the way he did, like Alexandra did. I loved that she was able to see past Erik’s behavior and called him out on his BS. She may be young and naive, but she carried herself with strength. However, it got me upset when she put herself in dire situations. It made me want to yell at her for not listening. She had a big heart and was naive to believe the good in people. This person didn’t deserve her kindness.
The epilogue is a lead in to the next book. I wished it was more focused on Eric and Alexandra. Such as a dinner scene with them and his family. Still, it was good and got me excited for the next couple’s story.
This book also has some suspense. These scenes were heart pound and gut wrenching. It may trigger some readers.
4.5 Alphahole loving stars
Another great read from Fiona Cole, Erik and Alexandra is another couple in the Voyeur world and I loved it.
Fiona writes a great love scene but also a great plot,
I couldn’t put it down.
Amazing read!
Age gap romance are a definite favorite of mine and Savior gave me just what I was looking for plus more. Full of angst, red hot chemistry, and amazing characters that drew me in from the first page I couldn’t devour Savior quick enough.
I always enjoy when characters take me by surprise and Alexandra was not what I was expecting at all. I loved how fierce and determined she was to fight for what she deserved. Erik definitely evoked strong feelings from me. I was torn between wanting to either punch or throttle him yet Alex soon changed that. I loved seeing their rather unconventional relationship evolve and grow through her eyes. The journey these two broken souls took me on was beautiful, emotional and mesmerizing.
Savior was an amazing addition to the Voyeur world that has me hungering for more. Intense, angsty, and gritty Erik and Alexandra’s story is a beautifully complex pageturner you don’t want to miss.
Savior was a steamy and quick read. Alexandra and Erik sure had great sexually chemistry but when it came to the emotional aspect of their relationship I felt it lacked. I couldn’t feel a connection between them. It was mostly sexual.
The overall story was ok but I couldn’t connect with either Alexandra or Erik so it played a huge part in my enjoyment of the story. Savior sure knows how to deliver some very hot scenes and dirty talk and I enjoyed every moment of them.
The epilogue was so good because it tied Savior together with the other books in the Voyeur universe making me excited about Ian and Carina’s book. Cause with that ending I really need their story!
WOW!! That’s just one word to say about Fiona Cole’s newest book Savior. Once again Ms Cole has crafted a story that will pull you in, has so much emotion, yet is smoking hot at the same time.
I was excited to read Savior as I am a HUGE fan of older Guy younger woman books. And Erik and Alexandra didn’t disappoint at all. The sexual and emotional chemistry just bounced off the pages between these two.
Now of course Erik really had me shaking my head, and yelling at my kindle, “Dude!! WTF are you doing????”. On yeah he had a good bit of my wrath from time to time, but underneath Erik was a good man, just needed a strong woman to match him.
Alexandra has been through quite a lot in her young life. She was just looking to stay afloat in life, but once she met Erik he showed her so much more. She is one strong young lady. And I definitely believe she and Erik were each others Saviors!
I absolutely LOVED this story from Fiona. Like I said she has crafted Perfection and I couldn’t get enough of this book. Another 5 star must read!
** spoiler alert ** While age gaps aren’t my jam, no clue why b/c when I was 19 I dated a guy that was 32. Well I know why, it makes me realize all the amazing sex I missed out on. Boy was he a dud in the sack. DAMN I wish I could go back and show him a thing or two, but I was young and thought that was what was what. D’OH!
Ok so enough of MY hangups.
We meet Alexandra when she puts up an ad on the interwebs. She is broke beyond broke and just wants to get a leg up (or as the ad would suggest, both legs in the air. *see what I did there?*). Anywho! I will say there were times when she was just so naive (see I was that naive girl and wish I weren’t), I hated it. It just didn’t compute with what we know of her backstory. She should be this very strong, very WISE girl. Yet she seems so sheltered and stupid. That was one of my flaws of the story, her lack of backbone or strength. ESP when it came to Erik and his #alphahole ways. I wish she had flirted more with Wyatt or at least turned shit around on Erik just to show him how his actions really feel. He couldn’t stand one second of the THOUGHT of her talking to a male, yet he fingers, kisses, gets oral from others. Making Alexandra watch. I get the ‘why’ behind it. But at the same time I wanted to throat punch him and shake the shit out of her.
You get the HEA you want and a nice sneak peek into the next book in that epilogue, but UGH! I wanted to jump into my Kindle and do some damage. LOTS of damage.
The DIRTY talk will make you squirm.
~I volunteered to read an advance copy.
I liked the connection between Savior and Lovers and I’m really excited for the next book (no spoilers). But… I didn’t like Erik. Like at all. Maybe it was the way he was introduced, but I could’ve gotten over that if he didn’t perpetuate the same behavior for more than half of the book. I get that we all have different sides to us and various motivations, but his playboy ways are never really explained and they really don’t jibe well with his heroism or the way he interacts with his family and coworkers. Alexandra was ok. I sympathized with her situation and I tried to keep in mind that she is only 19 and is naive and vulnerable but some of her decisions (A LOT really) were just dumb. However, the story is compelling and I literally could not put it down because I wanted to see how everything would work out between the couple. I really enjoyed their HEA and the epilogue may have been my favorite part about the whole book. I’m still down for the ride when it comes to all things Fiona Cole, Savior just wasn’t my favorite. 3 out of 5 wine glasses.
Fiona’s stories are always captivating from the first word to the very last. Erik and Alexandra’s story did not disappoint. I love the Voyeur world she is creating and can’t wait to read more!
The unconventional relationship they had in the beginning evolved over the course of the book to something beautiful and perfect for them.
Not only did this romance have swoon worthy moments, it was also light hearted, sexy and adventurous. The twists had me sitting knit the edge of my seat, leave me holding my breath and not able to read fast enough.
Fantastic read that in devoured in a day.
