This book was definitely different from the rom-coms I usually enjoy from this author.
This one had a darker storyline and was an enjoyable dark read.
Loved the fact that initially the main dominant was a twist on the conventional and was the female in power.
The only problem was that I didn’t like Remy. She was a character I just couldn’t connect with.
The male lead… Yavok was likeable though and had great spirit.
Despite my dislike for the lead female I did like the twists and thought it was a good read.
I was given an ARC but voluntarily chose to review
Damn Good Read-
Fantastic storytelling with a unique twist of an alpha-female immersed in what I surmised to be the world of human trafficking amongst other things. The author doesn’t tell you how Remy acquired Yavok, why her family business is considered powerful, or exactly what the family business is…
Quite a few glossed over plot threads but an interesting and sexy read that will leave you hoping Yavok gets his heart’s desire in the end. Perhaps the next book in the series will address the missing pieces.
This is so different than her normal reads. It’s dark, twisted, and amazing read. This will pull you in and keep you wanting more and more. Lots of different emotions that will leave you breathless. Can’t wait to read more from this author
This is Xavier Neal like I’ve never Read her Before….. and I LOVED it!
Before diving in, let me note that Unleashed is NOT for the faint hearted, it’s not a hearts and rainbows love story but rather a dark and twisty tale, one that will likely have you gasping and wondering just what waits around the corner.
The synopsis had me hooked, tempted to the dark side and boy am I ever glad I dived in. Remy and Yavok deliver a deliciously dark tale that had me craving more all while asking myself if I could handle what came next.
Xavier Neal did an amazing job reeling me in with this book, from the first page to the last, my heart pounded and I found myself lost in the story curious to see how things would end for these two.
Unleashed is the first book in the Synful Syndicate Series. Unleashed is the perfect description of this twisted, forbidden and taboo tale of Remy and Yavok. This tale is not for the faint of heart as it is about the reality of the Syndicate world.
Be prepared for more twists than a rollercoaster filled with betrayal, lust, jealousy and everything dangerous in the world.
Absolutely loved this book. It’s dark and intense. It will suck you from the beginning with its twists and turns as it takes you through an emotional ride. It has a gripping storyline with characters that are have an intense connection that you will love. The chemistry is sizzling and steamy. Can’t wait to read more.
This story is fueled by passion, desire, and the darkness within. Master tries to control all things but her new pet may be the one to bring her to her knees. I was intrigued from the first page. The depth of the characters drew me in. They find their pleasure in dominance and submission. Master resides in a dark world of deception and power struggles. Their chemistry is breathtaking it kept me wanting more. The pacing is quick and the story develops naturally. The joy found when control is freely given is so accurately described. Seeing from both master and pet’s perspective adds such weight and paints such a vibrant picture. The secondary characters are fun and the master’s sass is thoroughly entertaining. I had so much fun pushing boundaries and finding the depth of my desires.
Wow! Rent & Yavok are intense & will keep you turning the pages. Talk about a dark book! I don’t think I’ve read any of Neal’s work that is anything like this. Very different yet very good.
Xavier Neal’s first dark romance is definitely a departure from her usual stories. If you are a lover of dark romance, then this should be on your to be read list. The Synful Syndicate is a group of mafia-like families with each house themed as one of the seven deadly sins. This story is of Remy Kessler, the strong, fierce female, who is feared by many, and now the protector and head of her family’s house — the house of Greed. Yavok has not had an easy life and was purchased to be Remy’s deadly fighter and becomes her submissive “Pet”, giving the story an added BDSM theme. Even though it’s dark with cruelty, violence, depravity, and dominance, it still manages to contain humor and tenderness. You can’t help but really like and feel for Yavok, but I would say Remy is an acquired taste and a person you would definitely respect. I think this first dip into dark romance writing was well done by Ms. Neal.
So this dark romance book was a first for Xavier. Needless to say, I of course loved it. I have read many dark romances and this one is one of my favorites. It has all the elements needed to keep you engaged throughout the whole story. So many crazy twists and turns that had me pausing to collect myself in order to continue. This is different than her other works so please keep that in mind! I hope you fall in love with Remy and Yavok like I did!
When Xavier Neal said dark, it definitely piqued my interest. I love dark, and all its varying degrees.
And she did not disappoint!
Seeing the D/s relationship begin and evolve was definitely wonderful. Watching how their roles evolved not only in the bedroom, but in their lives was great.
I have yet to be disappointed with Xavier’s writing, and will definitely recommend this to anyone looking to dive into darkness.
I really enjoyed reading Unleashed. This book was dark and very creative with the characters and the story. I was amazed and enjoyed reading Unleashed.
I voluntarily reviewed an advance copy of this book
A new dark romance that will keep you intrigued, after meeting Remy you can’t help but try to understand why she is the way she is and how Yakov seems to want to stay. With the normal dark roles reversed it will keep your attention and keeps you wanting more. Loved it
Head the warning that this is a dark
Romance! It definitely is DARK! While this isn’t
My favorite, I do appreciate the story line and the great character development!
Well that was an amazing read that had my emotions all over!! I was gripped by the story immediately. Yavok is special and I loved him from the start. Remy is intense, and takes a bit to warm up to her but boy oh boy, she’s FIRE!! It’s a dark world, twists, danger, nail biting suspense and epic. I can see this being an amazing SYNful series!!
There just isn’t adequate words to express how awesome this book is!!! Remy and Yavok are deep, complex characters and although their love affair takes place in a dark, dark world, it is a beautiful romance none the less. Yes this is considered a dark romance and includes dark subject matter at times but I would recommend this to anyone who loves romance novels. Truly a wonderful story and brilliant, insightful writing.
I received this book as an ARC in exchange for an honest review. This book is amazing. It is very different from any of the other books Xavier has written. It is truly a dark romance. Remy and Yakov meet in an arena of sorts. As soon as she speaks to him he falls for her and essentially pledges his loyalty and body to her. I did not connect with Remy because of how she talked and treated people. Others will say she was justified in how she acted but I disagree. Yakov was sweet and strong. I also liked how he treated her. He tried to understand her and figure out his place in her world. I loved this book!
Xavier Neal constantly amazes me with her talent. She tries a new genre and she conquers it! Remy and Yakov are her latest couple and WOW! I want to say so much but I won’t. You need to grab this book, clear your schedule, and find out how talented Xavier is while she tells the story of this couple.
