L.A. Fiore and Anthony Dwayne teamed up for their first co-writing venture. They did such an amazing job complementing each other that if you didn’t know Unleashed was a co-written book you would think it was written by one ridiculously talented author. The world they built is great. Ogg’s Point is so charming you will wish it really existed so you could visit and feel the magic for yourself. Their characters are multidimensional and complex while also being endearing. Peyton is sweet and sassy with a quiet strength, Rutledge is damaged but deep down has a heart of gold; their chemistry is off the charts. The suspense will keep you glued to your seat waiting to see what will happen next. This story brings out true emotions, you’ll laugh, maybe even cry. Unleashed is an incredible story that will keep you hooked from the first sentence all the way through to The End.
I was really excited to read this book from LA and Anthony, I’ve read other books from LA, this is my first from Anthony, but it won’t be my last!! I loved Peyton and Rutledge, they are funny, the banter between them had me chuckling at times, and the chemistry was off the charts!!! The problem though comes in the form of Rut’s demons…he’s dealing with something from his past..or not really dealing, just existing, that is until Peyton comes on the scene. Peyton sees a good kind man….ok, maybe a little bossy…or a lot!!! Lol Rut doesn’t think he deserves to be happy, that he doesn’t deserve someone like Peyton, but she has a way of getting under his skin before he even realizes she’s gotten to him completely. This book had so many feels, and you feels so bad for Rut, even though you have no idea what has happened in his past, but you do know it’s bad. Will Rut allow himself the happiness with Peyton? Do you find out what happened to Rut that made him the way he is? Guess you’ll just have to read the book and find out…you won’t regret it!! I’m looking forward to what comes next for them together, hopefully there will be more from Ogg’s Point….Thank you LA and Anthony for writing this awesome book!!
Simply amazing I went into this blind thinking I was going to be reading another parnormal book but I was so wrong!
Have you ever layed eyes on someone and known instantly that they were your forever? Well that’s what happened when Peyton and Rut meet.
Rut is bossy, controlling has a dark and sexy as f***k. Peyton is headstrong gorgeous and has a stubborn streak a mile long. But when Peyton and Rut meet it’s like they were meant for eachother. Peyton keeps Rut’s demons at bay and keeps Rut on his toes. Rut gives Peyton a sense of what being needed feels like and being home. But with every demon comes trouble and it is up to Rut and Peyton to beat them and have their happily ever after.
I really enjoyed this book I laughed through out the book and even cried and I certainly lost sleep because I couldn’t put the book down.

The words of these two authors came together seamlessly. The peanut butter and jelly of the book world. I was hanging on every word as I read. I can honestly say this is the first emotionally charged alpha male romance I have read and OMG. Peyton and Rutledge could melt your kindle. Hang on for the ride and be prepared to only want to get up until it is over.
AMAZING!!!!
That is truly the only word I can use to describe this book. Unleashed is brilliantly written. A story filled with so much emotion and all the feels you want in a 5 star read!!
L.A. Fiore and Anthony Dwayne are a rock star duo. The writing is so flawless, you don’t know who wrote what part. I have read many books by L.A. Fiore, but Anthony Dwayne is a new author to me, but their writing styles work seamlessly together. I truly hope we see more books by these two authors.
I can’t really tell you much about the storyline because this is a story that needs to unfold for each reader. I would suggest going into this story blind. The less you know about this book going in, the better I think it will make this story.
Unleashed is the first book by the writing duo of L.A. Fiore and Anthony Dwayne. It is an enemies to lovers story with a romantic suspense aspect to it. This story is a complete standalone and is told in Dual POV. I thought this was an amazing love story. It’s slow to start but once things happen they take off. The chemistry between Peyton and Rutledge is off the charts. I loved each of these characters for different reasons. Rutledge was rough around the edges and kind of a lost soul, but when he loved he loved fiercely. Peyton was such a strong and sassy heroine. I loved how she stood up to Rutledge when needed to. The banter between these two brought some comic relief in this emotionally charged story.
I don’t want to say much more about this book, but I will say this READ THIS BOOK!! This is definitely one of the BEST BOOKS of 2018!! No romance reader should miss this book!!!
This is the first time these two Authors get together to write a book & after reading it, I want them to write more!Unleashed is the perfect title to express how this book will make you feel after reading it.
It has it all with a beautifully written range of emotions that pour off the pages.
Full of suspense, mystery and off the charts hot chemistry of Peyton & Rutledge, I could not put the book down because I needed to know what was going to happen between these two characters.
This book left me fully satisfied and a new fan of Author Anthony Dwayne who I have not read before till now.
Go grab this book & become addicted to this romantic suspenseful story.
A Top 2018 Must Read!
5 popped!
5 fucking sexy as sin stars!! Omg it’s been awhile since I added a book to the favorites list but this bad boy is going right there!!
This is a story of love, loss, demons, hope and lots of naughty bits!!
First of all I want to say these two main characters are like my all time favorite. Yes they both infuriate me but they make me love them all in the same sentence!!! Rutledge (never even heard that name before..I love it!) is such a little ass but in such a good way. I mean he is exactly my type of man. Ahhh I think he is my book crush of the year, maybe even EVER!! Peyton (such a pretty name as well) is fucking awesome!! I almost forgot her name just wanted to call her Peaches. I think these two are PERFECT together. And all the secondary characters were just great and fit in the story beautifully.
This book had a few twists and one twist I did not see until the very end. Good job there to both authors. This was written by two authors but let me say I had no clue. It blended like perfection.
If you can not tell I am I enamored with this book! Please everyone if you are looking for a sexy love story, with twists and turns and deep dark secrets this is it!! This book is a definite MUST read!!
Oh and I can not wait for more drama from Ogg’s Point…hmmm maybe Kinsley?!?!
**I received this book as an ARC and in return gave my honest review**
This book was written by two of my favorite authors and they did amazing co writing on this book. I felt that it was drawn out and picked up the pace at the end of the book. This is a very romantic read that will have you feeling the emotions and feel like you are their in the book. I laughed durning some parts and this book was very good just not fast moving enough for me.
Format: Kindle Edition
I’m glad I took a chance on this book. There is a dark subject matter in the book ,but the authors don’t go into detail . I was hooked from page one ,I wasn’t so sure that Rut would never get his happy ending with Peyton . Peyton seemed to just go with whatever Rut had to say . He was gruff and demanding, but yet his bark was worse than his bite.
Come with Anthony and LA as they take you into the secrets and mysteries that lay within the quaint little town of Ogg’s Point in their very first duet as coauthors. Let them introduce you to one hot alpha named Rutledge (Rut for short) and the spunky and sassy Peyton who just may bring Rut to his knees!!
This story was a page turner from the beginning to the end and keeps you guessing because what you think is going on in Ogg’s Point, isn’t really what’s going on. We find out something bad happens to Rut in the beginning of the book as a young child at his grandmother’s house. As an adult he puts it up for sale and Peyton is the potential buyer. I loved her from the beginning. I loved that she was ready to make a change and she just did it!! She’s funny, spunky and oh so sassy but has a heart of gold, but she thinks she just may need to to protect her heart when she meets Rut. If you like your men cocky and arrogant than Rut is your man. I’ve read Anthony Dwayne before and all his men in his books are alpha’s, but Rut takes the cake I think! He is deliciously alpha!! But Rut has some deep, dark demons that he tries to keep contained so as not to scare Peyton off.
The story moves at a great pace as these two banter back and forth and the sexual tension is smoking hot!! Both characters show the reader multidimensional sides of themselves which I love, especially in Rut. We see that he’s so much more than arrogant and cocky, especially as he begins to fall for Peyton. Be prepared for Rut’s language though. He drops the fbomb ALOT! And other curse words throughout the book.
I also enjoyed how the story moved to get you to the end and totally had me surprised with the twists and turns that happen. If you want a book with suspense, heart and heat, and characters you will love, then dive into Unleashed. You won’t be disappointed.
This book was amazing!!! First read from either author and I will have to look into their other work as I absolutely loved this one. Rutledge, what a name!, has had a rough life and when he meets Peyton things change. They both want to find thier hapoy and they do in each other. There’s so much love and understanding between these two even when they have to deal with and ex co worker and a deep dark secret. Just really loved reading this book. Have read it twice now. It’s definitely a must read and in my top 10 of 2018.
This is the first book that I read from both L.A Fiore and Anthony Dwayne and they both did an amazing job writing this book. If I was not told that it was co-written I never would have known, their work complements each other extremely well! This story was a roller coaster of emotions that had me wanting more the entire way. It had everything – steamy scenes, love, heartbreak, and a bit of mystery. I really like the chemistry between Rut and Peyton – definitely enjoyed that it wasn’t an insta-love. There was intsa-attraction but the love had to build as the Rut and Peyton learned to trust each other. It had an aspect of raw emotion that was exciting to see between Rut and Peyton. I highly recommend this book! You will laugh, cry, swear, and yes sometimes want to throw your kindle across the room because of this book but its worth it.
I’m fairly new to L.A. Fiore’s book and The Gathering is what had me falling in love with her writing. Once I heard she was teaming up with Anthony Dwayne to write Unleashed, I thought why not give this one a chance. Although I thought the writing was great between both of them, I couldn’t connect with the hero at all. And there were things here and there that didn’t work for me. I did find it rather enjoyable, lots of steamy scenes, but there was something about Rutledge that I couldn’t deal with at all.
This book really pulls you in from the very beginning, to be honest, I didn’t know what to expect at all. I thought Fiore and Dwayne make a terrific author duo and I’m definitely hoping they plan to write more in the future. Their writing, together absolutely works!
Peyton; I truly loved her character, she’s sweet, feisty, takes chances and just has a heart of gold. She’s definitely the woman to take Rut down a few pegs. When it comes to Rutledge, I don’t mind an alpha here and there, but he became a bit overbearing and he’s definitely a player. A bit of a jerk if you ask me, but it was to be expected since he constantly gives that off. And I kept wondering what the conflict was going to be between them. It’ll remain a mystery about this broken man for most of the book, but once it was revealed, your heart will definitely break for him. Despite everything that he has endured, I can’t say that it excuses the way he treats women, period. I was so nervous that he was going to treat Peyton the same way because she is definitely the light to his darkness. And the last thing she deserves is to be screwed over by someone she has deeply fallen for.
I truly enjoyed this but didn’t love it as much as I hoped. The writing is top-notch, but the lack of connection with the hero had me at an impasse. I am so looking forward to the next release by this new author-duo!
**I VOLUNTARILY REVIEWED FOR AN ADVANCE READER’S COPY**
Wow!! These two authors did an amazing job on this one!! It was passionate, emotional and very intense. It was dang near impossible to put down once I started.
Loved it
This is a beautifully intense written story that has all the feels and grips you from the beginning. This story brings you on a journey with Peyton and Rutledge and their road to love with some mystery, humor and sadness.
L.A. Fiore and Anthony Dwayne have just written a masterpiece. Unleashed is everything. Funny, sexy, sweet, suspenseful, and heartbreaking. ALL IN ONE BOOK. I laughed and cried while I sighed and swooned. Rut and Peyton’s love story is hard and rough but real. Each of them with their own secrets and demons, yet each one giving love a chance.
Rut is a domineering asshole, but oh so lovable. Peyton is more of a go with the flow type chick until you piss her off, then she lets her sass out. These two were so perfectly imperfect for each other. The slow and steady beginning of them to the hot and fast relationship they develop was a nice change to see.
This duo had no hiccups that could be seen in this beautiful story. The words and chapters flowed so easily. The writing was flawless, the characters perfectly flawed, and the mix of funny, sweet, mysterious, and hot made this a definite 5 star read!
An intense love story between Rutledge and Peyton. Love all the twist and turns and my heart broke for Rutledge. Loved seeing Peyton heal him.
Favorite quote: “words had power, even ones thoughtlessly spoken out of anger and fear.”
Rutledge wow he’s a bit of an asshole but he was funny, I really loved him as a character. The way he would get all confused about how he was feeling and then when he was protective mood. He had a dark past and I think in the prologue I guessed what had happened to him and it explained so much and all the anger he felt. I felt so bad for him so he tried his best in whatever he did.
Peyton she was such a naive character but I loved her. I did feel like with most things she always needed someone to push her, like with Tim telling her she was better than her job. I loved the friendship she had with Coda that was so nice and sweet. I also liked that Tim gave her the courage to leave her job.
The story was so gripping and it kept me hooked all the way through I really enjoyed the writing of both L.A. Fiore and Anthony it was an interesting combination and I really liked it.
I loved the humour in this story some of the one-liners in this book was so amusing. The sex in this book was written really well and you could feel the chemistry between these characters.
I loved the story I think my only thing with the story is that I did not feel like there was any need for Peyton and Rutledge have that break it felt so unnecessary for them to have it. The story could have continued without it.
Regardless I really enjoyed the story and thought it was really cute.
I received a copy of this book from NetGalley to review for Stephanie’s Book Reports.

I love when a book is co-authored and if flows so seamsly you can not even tell who is writing one point. I have read a ton of L.A Fiore written boks but never a Anthony Dewayne but I did learn these two make amazing writing partners. Your gping to love Rutledge and Peyton. Their cbemistry will have you wondering if your kindles going to catch fire in your hands and their banter is equally amazing. This is a book filled with mysery and intrique and so freaking good. It was so much more than I expected snd will leave you wanting more.
This is the first book I have read by this duo and it will not be the last. This story had everything in it that I love. The main character was all Alpha a$$hole, rude af eff and oh man was he a MAN WHORE and your main female character was so loving, funny, smart, and sassy. There was also suspense that I loved because trying to figure out the hero’s secret was something I was looking forward to uncovering. When I did uncover it I was like WTH but hey that is where the story went so I just followed because I could not stop reading until the end. I needed to know what was going to happen to these two and the ending was great.
Rutledge oh Rutledge did I want to shuttle kick and B!@ch slap him all at once. He was such an arse in the begging but it kept me reading because I had to see what was going to happen when he and Peyton met. He was an arse but not as bad as he was in the beginning and Peyton fell hard for him. This story grabbed me from the start and kept me going till late in the night. I will say this some will love this book like I did and some will not because the hero is such an arse but I say give it a go and see where it takes you!
