I love the sound of a broken heart. Somehow it soothes my tortured soul.
Judge me, but if you’d seen the world through my eyes, you wouldn’t blame me. You’d seek justice, too.
Beautiful women shouldn’t be trusted. They think they’re in control. That I’m foolish enough to fall for their looks and manipulative tactics.
So it’s simple. I ruin them first. I’m not interested in happily ever afters.… interested in happily ever afters.
That’s the plan. Until my cousin, Brett, hooks up with a Beaumont. The daughter of a wealthy family who has connections to my late father and ties with the secret society of male billionaires. The same club my father ruled with an iron fist and I’m banned from joining. Brett’s new union introduces me to the second sibling, the raven haired beauty with curious innocence to challenge the vengeance ruling my life.
Freya Beaumont turns my universe on its axis after one intense, messed up night together. I break my own rules. She could be my biggest conquest of all. Except, I crave her, even though I want to hate her.
Now the game really begins.
Every time we’re together, the sinister secrets of my past unravel. Forgotten memories I’ve buried deep within me are pushing their way to the surface. They make me question everything I believe to be true.
But this story has a secret even I didn’t see coming.
This is the 1st STANDALONE in the Vow Series.

I read the warning at the front of the book, but that didn’t do the scenes and emotions I felt while reading this any justice. The protected and forgotten memories alone were so DEEP!! The feelings stirred were so intense I had to keep reading. The steam meter broke with Kaleb’s dominance but there were also moments of sadness and reflection. Not for the faint at heart…
I received a free review copy of this book and am leaving an honest review.
Dark, amazing, full of unexpected events, couldn’t put it down since the first chapter the story grabs you and don’t let you go until the end. It was just amazing. The characters give everything in the story making it a wonderful journey, is a must read.
This was such an emotional roller coaster of a ride! Man, it is one surprise after the other with this one! The story and characters are well developed and draw you in and keeps you engaged until the end. I found myself turning page after page having to find out what the next surprise was going to be. This is the first book I have read from this author and will be sure to look to read more.
Great story. Never a lull or dull moment in how twisted a mind may work!
Nothing is what it seems here. Kaleb is heartless, cruel, borderline evil…or is he? Freya came to be a Beaumont after an accident and is just an innocent pawn who has no place in his life…or doesn’t she? At first, I severely disliked Kaleb, even though he clearly had issues. And I loved Freya and her refusal to simply be the little mouse, but sometimes her retaliatory moves made me want to yell at her. And then everything turned on its ear and I was hooked. The mystery unfolds, and even though I’d already guessed at least a decent portion of it, that didn’t change how gutting it was to discover the entire truth of life and lies around Freya and Kaleb. There was even the necessary, yet devastating catalyst in Syrah to force all truths into the light.
I wasn’t expecting to like this book as much as I did, but wow, did I like it. I was so fully invested in needing to know what really happened and who was truly the bad, the good, and the ugly here. Autumn Archer definitely delivers with this one!
This story has everything! It is a dark romance, yet at moments contains some feelings of contemporary romance. I loved every single page, chapter, and every upside-down twist and turns that seemed to come around every corner. Vow of Revenge by Autumn Archer was amazing! She is such a talented writer that I am already thinking which will be the next read by Autumn Archer I should pick up next!
Intriguing, captivating, incredible!
One of the best stories I had a pleasure to read. Before I decided to reach for this book I had a great craving for something light, easy, funny and with no angst. This book doesn’t have any of this qualities but let me tell you it’s ten thousands times better. From the first chapter I was hooked. I couldn’t put it down and I read it in one sitting.
It was suspenseful, dark, full of secrets and unpredictable twists. I’m lost for words to give this story a justice. Captivating, intriguing, with full range of emotions, heartbreaking and in it’s own special way beautiful. The whole plot is perfectly timed, all loose ends are tied, characters are wonderful and complicated. As real life can be.
For me this was tale about two souls that were always destined to be together when the time comes. It’s like a destiny written in the stars. The road to happiness is not always easy and beautiful. Often times it is through humiliation, rejection, heartbreak, angst, loneliness, tears, sweat and blood. I loved every single word. Worth every minute I spent indulging in the world from the pages and now I need more, I want more of their story and their world.
So much darkness but yet a ray of light can shine through
After having read and really loved The Unforgettable series books by this author I found Vows of Revenge to be a bit different. However, this book is a great story and really well written with more than a toe dipped into the dark and dangerous side of things. There is a lot going on in this story with a number of twists and turns along the way.
I received an ARC of this book in exchange for my honest review. My opinions are all my own.
Wow! This book kept me on the edge of my seat the entire time. It’s very well written l, has great characters and a storyline that pulls you in and won’t allow you to put the book down until The End.
Kaleb and Freya’s story is full of buried secrets, lies, and their pasts and present is intertwined in ways they will only discover overtime when the secrets that Kaleb has Burris’s/blocked out in his mind links the two of them in ways they could have never saw coming.
This is a new to me author.
This book took me a while to get into unfortunately.
I perserved because as much as it wasn’t grabbing me I wanted to see if that changed and the last 30% of the book earnt at least one of the stars given.
Don’t get me wrong, it was well written, I just expected way more suspense that what was given.
So much was focused on unimportant things that detracted from what was actually going on.
The last bit of the book well and truly made up for my initial disappointment though.
Holy Moly this book was unputdownable!! This story captured me from the beginning, and it took me on an emotional rollercoaster ride, and it’s a story I won’t soon forget. The characters of Kaleb and Freya are written with such depth and skill, and I loved the dynamic and connection between them.
From start to finish I was so enthralled, it was twisted, dark, full of passion and heartbreak, and loved every second of it! A definite must read!!
Let me start by saying this romance book is on the darker side, and had me really crying more than once. This is not an insta-love but it is truly a love story. Watching Kaleb and Freya’s story unfold is a page turner!
The twists and surprises are as impressive as the sexy, heat and depths of the characters. I loved the dark and dangerous Kaleb right off, he’s a jerk but in the best way. He is not what he seems, then again neither is his past. As the layers get peeled back it makes me fall even harder for him. I read this book more than once and each time it feels like something new is added.
Freya has a good life, but doesn’t take it for granted. She’s a good girl who gets in the path of distraction. She has to battle not only her body and mind but the guy who “saves” her. Yet unknowingly their Hart is what saves them both. They both have a strong bond with their families. I adore Brett and Syrah as much as Kaleb and Freya.
As much as I REALLY Love Autumn Archer’s other books this one really got me. Her writing since her debut novella has hooked me in and just keeps holding on, tight. I don’t know how she does it. Thank god she doesn’t keep us waiting long for her next story. Fingers crossed a book 2 is in the future, i can’t get enough of these characters.
Wow! This is the first book I’ve read by this author and I absolutely loved it! Kaleb is a hot af dirty talking alpha that is a womanizer and is exacting revenge on all women due to his fathers murder he witnessed when he was a little boy by a women he felt safe with and that’s all he can remember …
Freya is the strong willed independent sassy heroine that’s beautiful inside and out and she seems to have a hold on Kaleb and he hates that about her.
OMG ! You guys have to read this story there is a twist to this story that I didn’t see coming ! This story is one hell of a emotional ride ! I cried, I laughed, I threw my kindle lol this book was amazing! Definitely 5 stars and I definitely recommend but be prepared with a box of tissues because this story will break you before it puts you back together.
Awesome book. I love the way it was written. I was shocked throughout this whole book. Parts made me mad and also shocking and made me cry. These 2 people have gone through hell and finally found it.
This is my first time reading this author and this is a dark but delightful read. Everything isn’t quite as it first appears and there are a lot of emotions that the author takes the reader through as she tells this story. It’s wonderfully written and kept me intrigued from start to finish.

5 STARS
I love discovering new-to-me authors and Autumn Archer is one that I will definitely read more of. This book had it all the heat, the drama, suspense, and the secrets will keep you captivated! Kaleb and Freya have explosive sexual chemistry! I FLOVED this book!
Vow of Revenge by Autumn Archer is an EPIC read that I highly recommend and will join the ranks of the BIBLIO-ARISTOCRACY!!!
Caleb and Freyas story will keep you on edge the entire time and your emotions all over the place. He witnessed his dads murder when he was younger and vowed to get revenge. Women are nothing to him and he hates them so much. Freya comes into his life and he hates her more because he actually wants her but knows it wont work out well. I just really could not put down and enjoyed everything about it.
I can’t find the words to describe my feelings at this very moment. I just finished and…. I am still in awe. In awe of this beautiful, dark and emotional story. I can only tell I was reading like crazy to finally to be able to find out what happend. I dreamt about the story, how it actually could end. It was that good folks.
Innocence meets darkness, pureness meets dirty. The attraction…holy WOW.
Can you feel me?
I loved every second, every single one. if you like dark reads that’s the real deal!

Every time she looks up at me, it’s like a vortex of the unknown luring me in. It feels like she could see right into my soul and whisper promises of breaking the tight chains slowly killing my spirit.
