Riveting and page-turning, Severed, had me on the edge of my seat always wondering what was going to happen next. The twists and turns are unpredictable and the anticipation for what happens next had my body buzzing and fidgeting.
The name of the game in this follow up to the prequel, Stolen, is REVENGE.
“Revenge. Such a beautiful word. Blood will be spilled. I will bathe in it. Drench myself in the metallic liquid because that’s what they deserve.”– Drake
Having been sexually brutalized since they were children, it is now time for these characters to take back their power. To exact their revenge and move on in the only way they know how; brutally, viciously and painfully.
This is a fast-paced read that I enjoyed tremendously. I must say however, that in the beginning the connection between Caia and Drake was strong and that I could feel the pull between them. However, as the story progressed, their love, in my opinion, fizzled. I found that it felt forced. Like they were puzzle pieces that just did not fit together. As for the ending, it felt rushed. Everything was resolved rather too quickly.
Regardless, this is a story that will captivate and hold your interest until the very end.
Please note that this is a dark read and will have triggers.
I received an ARC of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own.
Every once in a while you encounter an author that takes their books to the next level, and keeps on pushing the envelope. Dani Rene spins a tale of lust, love, and revenge in the most fascinating way.
It is a deliciously wicked tale that makes you root for the revenge. in an unconventional, and dark place that holds nothing but horrors for our main characters they see the light that is each other as they burn the world around them to get the love they want.
You will absolutely want to read this book if you are interested in Dark romances that have some taboo subjects with very steamy scenes.
WTF did I just read?
That pretty much sums up my absolute shock after reading this book and I don’t know why I’m saying I’m shocked, because this lady has proven over and over again at just how diverse she can be in her writing and this book just proves it again.
Holy hell that twist I didn’t even see coming just…wow. This book is the conclusion to Drake and Caira’s dark, twisted, broken love story and the life they so deserve.
This book pulled me in from the start and absolutely had me glued to the pages to see what happened next.
No spoilers but if you’ve read Stolen you’ll want to grab this and read it to find out what happened next. It is definitely a must read.
This is just my opinion and my voluntary review
Another hauntingly delicious read by Dani René, one that I’ll be thinking about for days and weeks. I loved the unpredictable nature of the story-telling and not knowing what would happen from chapter to chapter. Twists and turns are my favorite, and this book is riddled with them. Definitely recommend to lovers of dark romance who can handle violence. Overall, beautifully crafted and expertly delivered. I can’t wait for the next one!
Do you dare venture into the dark? Do crave something more?
This is it! This book will captivate you, and you will not leave the same <3
**PLEASE READ STOLEN BEFORE YOU JUMPED INTO SEVERED**
When this was put in anthology awhile back, I knew I wanted more and I got my dark twisted read.Severed took me right back into the dark tale that left me hanging in Stolen. I didn’t know how Caia would survive her situation and if Drake was going to evolve as a character. I got my answers and so much more. The connections between the characters were amazing and absolutely dark. It wasn’t just Caia and Drake in situations together but River was thrown in the mix.
Dark and twisted with desire and romance woven in. A perfect mix that captured my attention until the end.
Dani René pulls us back into the broken world of monsters and revenge. I thought Stolen: The Prequel was fantastically dark, Severed was so much more…
Drake, Caia, River and Dante have all been captives of the monsters. They all want to take revenge on the people who put them in this place. They want their lives back. To be free of the memories and nightmares. Will they get revenge and the freedom they want and deserve? Or will they remain broken, unable to heal?
Fantastic writing and storyline that had me hooked. I’ve loved reading Drake and Caia’s story. Dante and River too – I really hope this isn’t the end.
Wow ok to be honest I was not expecting the way Drake and Caia relationship went. It was dark, twisted and at the same heartbreaking and maybe I’m crazy for loving me dark reads but I found it even sweet at times. But one thing I got for sure I love Drake with all his dark and twisted ways.
Wow! I loved Stolen,but Severed…. it was something else…. something sinister,twisted,and beautiful! Questions answered in such a brilliant manner that nothing left hidden.
Thanks to the author for such an amazing masterpiece!
I loved Drake’s world, with it’s ups and downs, it’s twists and with Caia in it. It’s one of the books that leaves you speechless for a long time! Bravo.
Wow, what a ride! After Stolen, I had no idea what could possibly be in store for Drake and Caia.
This book definitely is not for the faint of heart, so definitely heed the warnings and take them seriously.
This book is vicious, violent, dark.. darker than the first. It was an amazing book to read and watch as Drake and Caia develop over the course of this book.
There was so much development in the characters and storyline, vivid details, and raw emotions and feelings.
Drake and Caia story starts in “Stolen” you must read that first for “Severed” to continue the story. Dani’ is an amazing author and makes this story unbelievably outstanding. This for sure is a dark romance but one you can’t put down. I couldn’t stop reading to see what would happen next. Drake has grown up in a world where no child should ever have to grow up. Caia was stolen into that world and then taken from it. Drake and Caia both felt strong feelings towards each other but they had to figure out if they needed each other to survive or needed to be apart to try to survive.
OMFG !!!! A DARK YOU MUST READ !!
bloody, gruesome, and filled with retribution. twists here and there that almost got me worried but this is a HEA! even for those who were bred in the darkness. everyone gets what they deserve in the end
Dani René is well known for her dark and dirty books. And let me say this this one is definitely very DARK. And very important thing you must read “Stolen: The prequel” first in order to get this story. And then you won’t be surprised about all kinds of dark, twisted, gory things that may happen in this part. Yet despite all of that I loved this book every step of the way. “Severed” is a wild ride from start to finish and you will love every brutal moment of it. It’s not as gory as “Stolen” but don’t let that fool you because it’s still very VERY DARK. This part is focused on vengeance. It shows that savior won’t always come on white horse. Sometimes he will come on a dark horse and being saved from one evil will result I throwing you into even hotter flame. But there is something about these characters that made me want to reach out and grab ahold of them. Drake and River are at the same time dark and mysterious, both depraved in their own ways. But at the same time Drake has the ability to capture every reader’s dark heart. I can’t wait to see what will happen next. Yet another book this year that left me in both state of shock and anticipation of what will happen next.
I am in constant awe of Dani and her writing. From the first page this author will suck you in her books and drown you in her words. This is definitely a must read for readers who love theirs stories more on the darker side.
I don’t think I’ve ever read a book that
has left me feeling like this. The way
this book was written…just wow.
I have to say that you have to keep reading past
all the gore,blood,and violence to be able to
see what the author was aiming for. This is
up there with my Top #5 dark reads of this year,
maybe this decade. You HAVE TO READ “Stolen”
before you read this one in order to not only
understand the main characters but to understand
how and why some things/people made the leap to
change or make a change. Hopefully I was vague
enough not to give anything away
Sexy, dangerous, dirty, taboo,… the naughty adjectives are endless.
Severed picks up where Stolen left us in a cliffhanger.
Dani has created characters with depth and twists and turns you’d never see coming. This had a little of everything!
This book was suspenseful, romantic, and dark. Exactly what you might expect for the conclusion of Drake and Caia’s story.
There’s a hint to further stories from the secondary characters. I’d love to see more of Dante!
Wow just wow. I honestly never thought this installment would be as dark and amazing as the prequel but boy was I chuffed to find out it was even darker and twisted.
Please read stolen before you read severed as you really need to read that one first. Dani has once again nailed this story, her word are simply awe inspiring.
Wow!!! Dani Rene really outdid herself on this book. Note*** make sure you read the prequel Stolen, before you start this, if not you will be totally lost!!
Now this book is dark, twisted and soo good. Dani’s writing hooks you from start to finish. The darkness she writes about has your heart in your throat. This characters where so complex, twisted, perverse in their own way. Drake and Caía Journey is one you don’t wanna miss.
5 dark and twisted stars!!!
*i read an advance copy and this is my honest opinion*
Severed is one of my absolute favorite dark romances to date. After reading the prequel Stolen I figured out quickly I was in for an unforgettable read and Severed blew all my expectations. Dark, gritty and spellbinding Severed held me riveted until the very last page.
There were moments where my jaw literally felt like it was on the ground and in the next moment I was thirsting for revenge right along with Caia and Drake. I loved the secondary characters just as much and how much they added to this story. Together they all pulled me further into the Savage’s world as I was desperate to unravel what was truly going on. Their world is one that nightmares are made of yet at the same time I couldn’t dive quickly enough into it. I was unexpectedly taken by surprise by twists and turns that managed to constantly keep me on my toes.
Severed is not a light and fluffy romance. It will drag you into the dark with an utterly captivating read that will keep your head spinning and your heart racing until the very end.
Stolen left me with my chin to the floor. I had so many questions and had no idea how the story would continue. But it did not disappoint. This story is told from different POVs which helped me learn each of the characters. POV is crucial with this story line because each of these characters have been through so much, darkness apart of them. Seeing all the characters through different eyes really helps a reader understand.
This story is intense and intricate. I feel this story reflects the author’s talent so well. This story is so well written with in depth characters it’s amazing. I’ve read this author before but this story just packs the perfect punch.
