There is no romance here, but there is plenty of BROMANCE in this brash look at the two young men – Sal Raniero and Deacon Cruz – from their early days on the streets of New Orleans. Lots of kink, violence, and Sami-stylings.

I have to say again what an amazing author Kailee is, her style is bar none the best I have read to date! I was so exited for this book to come to life! The back story on the life of Deacon & his friendship with Sal was a great help to see how they came about & goes a long way to showing why Deacon is the way he is. No apologies love Deacon!
Deacon Cruz is a complex man but how could he not be after the upbringing he had and really his conception as well. Complicated seems to be his life, throw in a mix of extreme violence and crime, add a touch of love from his mother and a heap of lust and you have his story…or do you? Did I mention he was complicated?
This story returns to his youth and gives readers his background history, what helped to shape him as well as insight into his two friends Sal and Dom. I have to say at times I did find it a little disjointed in its style though. The interviewing technique had both positive and negative qualities; a lot of information is gained from various characters points of view first hand however I found it off putting at times at the interruption to the flow of the story.
The spiritual side of the BDSM aspect is refreshing in its entirety and brings a different approach to the whole topic. I found this was handled very smoothly. When the tension and drama built towards the end it was extremely exciting and had you on the edge of your seat wondering how they were going to get out of their mess!
I do suggest you read this authors previous books about these characters, it’s not imperative but I believe it’s helpful and insightful.
Son of Saint is Deacon’s story, past and present, and how he formed a special bond with Sal.
Two sexy delicious and yummy men that take you on a wild and crazy journey that will leave you speechless.
Believe. that when KS writes her stories she will send you on an unforgettable ride that will leave you wet.
Faith. in KS that she will have you hooked on her stories. Afterall, she IS the game master.
Trust. that every book that KS writes will blow your mind.
Another great read
Kailee sucks me in with every story she writes and this was no exception. I was hooked from the beginning with Sal and Deacon and Dom. These characters were weaved into a well written story that was addictive and hard to put down. She never disappoints and always has me guessing. Love these darker reads and cannot wait for more.
Kailee just doesn’t get it!! Some of us are not vampires(even if we think we are) and must sleep. But it was so hard to even think about putting this book down no matter how tired my poor little eyeballs got. I’m still having a hard time focusing as I type this so please excuse any typos..lol There are not enough words to describe how much I loved this book! Not only did it answer some questions but it brought backs some of the other stories to give you a more rounded picture. This one another great read from Kailee. All I can say is buckle up cause you’re in for a ride!
In Son of Saint we get to hear Deacon Cruz story.
Deacon’s mother’s has an affair with the president of a rival MC club while she is married to a mean man. Out of this affair Decacon is born.
I am not one for spoilers so all I can say is this book is an awesome read. Loads of action.
Do yourself a favour and start reading Kailee Reese Samuels books. Every single one I have read to date has all deserved the 5 star rating and anyone that rates the book less than a 5 star is just crazy.
I really enjoyed getting to know more about Deacon, in this detailed and very well written novel. It was interesting to see all of the twist and turns that led them to where they are now. Everyone has a past, but it’s all about how that past shapes your future that matters. In Son of Saint you see where Deacon started, and how he became the man we know him to be today..
Can not wait for Kailee’s next release.
Kailee Reese Samuels has created an amazing world with characters you either want to be, know or get a taste of . (If ya know what I mean.) I loved Deacon’s story and reading more about his friendship with Sal Raniero. KRS has written another one-click must read that leaves you with a 5-star hangover and looking forward to the next book. I definitely recommend you read all of this author’s books you will not be disappointed.
Wow i dont even know what to say about this book that you just need to read this amazing dark twisted read tell the very end and have you hooked. This is amazing read that will take you on dark thrill that will have you not wanting to put this book down because you will want to keep you with the dark twists.
I’ve been intrigued by Deacon since I met him in Kailee Reese Samuels’ other books, so of course I couldn’t pass up the opportunity to learn more about him!
Through flashbacks, interviews and present scenes , Deacon’s personality reveals itself little by little. I don’t want to say to much because it would be so easy to spoil the experience! He has that darkness inside of him and at the same time he yearns to find his tribe. His evolution from the sixteen years old he was to the master he is becoming was impressive.
“Walk your own path.”
Son of Saint is a complex book, clever, its multi-layered plot gripped me to no end. Trying to keep track of everything was very fun and entertaining. While you focus on one thing, it’s so easy to miss the larger picture or on the contrary, the little hints sprinkled everywhere! In true Kailee fashion every word counts!
That bromance made me cry, laugh, swoon and furiously fan myself. Once more the author perfectly captured her characters’ emotions. The Unholy Trinity that are these three alpha men shares an incredible bond, but don’t think everything came easily…. Oh, the first time Sal and Deacon met was priceless. And memorable! Hate, jealousy, love, trust, respect, created an astounding cocktail between the three of them, where it was fun to lose myself.
“We are bonded so deep in our soul that nothing could break us apart.”
Be careful, though, not to get too comfortable because these testosterone infused pages have a way to make you let your guard down, and when reality (KRS) strikes…
Don’t wait any longer, take the plunge into KRS’s, I can’t recommend it enough! Enjoy, ladies!!!
This book can easily be read as a stand alone. I haven’t read the other books that these characters are in. But this book gave enough background that I was able to follow along. The friendship between two alpha males is always intriguing. I’m glad I read this one before the other books due to the fact I always like to get the background of how a friendship came across.
I’ve recently begun reading this book and it’s both entertaining and engaging. I can’t wait to see how the characters progress and their relationships develop.
I really don’t know where to go with this review to be totally honest. I absolutely love KRS and her stories. But I can not say that I enjoyed or even really liked this story. I felt as if I was dropped into the middle of a book and I had to try to catch up. To say the least I never really did.
BUT I could not put the book down because I swore I would figure it out. I didn’t. Although the emotions and intrigue that came out of this book kept me going.
Again this book is hard for me if I take KRS out of the equation and just review the book, and ask if I would recommend this book I would say no. There are so many other books out there that are 5 stars that don’t confuse me. But being a huge KRS fan that brings in the confusion and makes me want to say yes read this story.
Deacon is such a good guy, it was great to finally get the story of his early days. He’s the real deal, sexy hot and loyal to the core. He’s also had his wild days, and his horrible excuses for parents didn’t help at all. We find out how he and Sal meet and build up a tight friendship that survives the test of time. We meet other characters along the way that we’re familiar with too. This is a beautiful look at a man who has given his all for those he loves. Though there’s definitely sex in this book, it’s more focused on Deacon and his character. There are so many amazing aspects to this story – if you are a little confused, by the end you will know all about this swoon worthy man! Ride on the roller coaster with us!
This is another Kailee book at her finest and an amazingly more than 5 star read. This is the story of Deacon Cruz and how he grew up and decisions he has to make. It connects the relationship with Sal and what their friendship is and where they have to go for the future. This is another piece of the puzzle that is in this Sal and Juliet world and one you can definitely not miss. Deacon is a hot, sexy badass with a sweet heart and focused mind that I know will steal your heart just like he did mine. Another must read in Kailee’s world!
This is a dark, emotional must read. It tells the story of Deacon Cruz and Sal Raneiro, two Alpha men and their journeys to become friends. Most readers who’ve read Kailee’s books will remember Deacon from Raw and Sal from Juliet, SOS and The Ride Series. There are major struggles and turmoil throughout that I wanted to at times throw my Kindle but I did restrain myself from doing so. This was written so smoothly that the pages literally turned themselves. I do have a book hangover after finishing this but it is so worth it!
Deacon Cruz who we met in Raw was raised by one man, the son of another. Rival club members and a step father who was evil.
Sal Raniero appears in this story as well and you will recognize him from previous stories by Kailee Reese Samuels. This is the story of how they met and how they became friends. If you liked these characters previously you definitely won’t want to miss this book!
It is filled with two Alphas and lots of intrigue, drama and you won’t be able to put it down! I highly recommend this book!
“We are not tucked away, fearful orphans—abandoned, alone, and small as together, we become the shadow looming over the face of pure evil.”
To say that this book was on my highly anticipated list would be a huge understatement. I couldn’t wait to get my greedy hands on it. Son of Saint is the epic introduction of Deacon and Sal’s friendship. We are given insight on how the unholy trinity between Dominic Gennaro, Lucas Salvatore Raniero and Deacon Cruz was formed. While Dom is present throughout the story, it is focused mainly on the relationship between Deacon and Sal.
“He is like my blood. The brother I never had. We are bonded so deep in our soul that nothing could break us apart.”
How can I describe Deacon? He is one of my favorite male characters that Kailee Reese Samuels has written, which is saying a lot because of the mad love I have for Sally. Deacon is the child of an affair between two rival MCs and because of this he has not had it easy life. Due to this you would think that he would be unstable, mean and cold but that couldn’t be further from the truth. He is a deep, loyal, honest and charming gentleman who can be a little shy at times. But make no mistakes he can still be a monster if the situation calls for it. I fell hopelessly in love with him in RAW (Ride Series Book 3).
“Deacon had all the makings of charm and wit and spiritual comfort to make a sinner praise his name.”
The meeting of Deacon and Sal is priceless and I enjoyed it immensely. Both are use to being the alpha and always the one in control but their connection is extremely special and something that we don’t see often. Even though, personality wise, they are total opposites they balance each other out and share an unbreakable bond.
“The blood pact between Deacon and Sal assured their brotherhood bond would never be broken. Their web together lassoed with ribbons of fine spider silk.”
Kailee Reese Samuels writing pulls so much emotion from me. I was clutching my kindle nervous as hell over what the next sentence would bring. I always seem to lose myself in her books a feel like I’m right alongside the characters experiencing everything they do. She never fails to draw at least one tear from me. Her writing style is a little different in this one but it is still just as captivating as ever. Ms. Samuels keeps me on my toes with plot twists and questions swirling around in my head. There was never a dull moment. My mind was focused and I was engaged through the whole journey.
“These people they do not play a linear game; it is multi-dimensional and motivational, one plus one doesn’t necessarily equal two.”
We get dabble into other characters heads a little which is an added bonus and I CANNOT wait for what she is giving us next. This is a must read especially if you are a fan of sweet, sexy dominant men who can be ruthless when necessary and stories that will leave you yearning for the next word.
“All things in the interest of Deacon Cruz—after all, he is a Saint.”
Son of Saint is another fantastic read by this author. This is my favourite of this authors so far. I’ve prob said that before but she has this knack to amaze me each time I read a book from her.
In Son of Saint we get Deacon Cruzs story. We met him in Raw and I was super happy to hear his story. As well as reading more about familiar characters such as Sal Raneiro we get introduced to some new characters as well.
I cannot praise this author highly enough. This book pulled on all my emotions. I found the storyline well thought out and unique. The characters are solid and likeable.
I’m really looking forward to reading more from this author.
