Beautiful Savage

Victoria Ashley — 2018

JAXON KADE I can't breathe... I don't want to. With every breath that fills my lungs, I feel the pain she's fighting and it's killing me slowly, reminding me of the day she got ripped away. I've gone thirteen years without her, and as if she was never gone, she walks back into my life, feisty as h@ll and set on running from me. I refuse to let that happen. She's my Lex. It doesn't matter if I have to destroy everything in my path that leads to her-I will. I've been in love with her since the age of nine. I lost her once, and you better d@mn well believe that I will walk through the fires of Hell before losing her again. She's broken... Ripped apart by the world. I'm making it my mission to piece her back together again and claim her as mine. Every part of her sexy body has been possessed by me. I know she sees she's not the only one who has changed with time. I'm rough, savage, and just as damaged as she is. But there's one thing I'm capable of-always have been-and that is loving her. I promise to do everything in my power to show her, no matter what it takes or how much it hurts. ALEXANDRA ADAMS I never thought I'd lay eyes on Jax Kade again, and the moment I realized the rough, edgy man I allowed to take me home and have rough sex with me was him... my world came crashing down around me. I'm no good for him. Not for the sweet, protective Jax that took care of me back when no one else would. I'm damaged, unrepairable... I need medicine to escape this reality-the pills, c@caine, and liquor aren't even enough to numb the pain of my past. Years without Jax destroyed me-ruined me forever-and being back in his life will only ruin him the same. I could never do that to my beautiful Jax. I never meant to find him, and I sure as hell never meant to want him again as much as I did before we were ripped apart. It doesn't matter that I need to stay away from him. It doesn't matter that I fight to keep my distance. Jax refuses to let me go. He doesn't care how messed up I am. My biggest fear is destroying the only person I've ever been capable of loving, but he's not giving me any other choice...

***5+ Stars*** *Arc copy provided in exchange for an honest review* I’m sitting here with so much to say about this book, but not quite knowing how to put it into words. Everyone who knows me, knows what these books mean to me. The first book, Royal Savage, is my all time favorite book ever. There is just something about the Savage & Ink family that makes you want to be apart of it. Jax and Lex’s story is no different. It’s one filled with sadness, angst, and just pure beauty in the way these two love and fight for each other. I felt every single emotion these two did, and that says something about Victoria Ashley’s writing. She has a way of sucking you into this world, where she rips your heart to shreds, and then somehow puts it back together again. The women in these books are strong and fierce in their loyalty to their men. The men are just as loyal not only to their women, but to each other. They’re not just friends, but brothers. I can’t wait for the next book in this series. For the heartache I know Victoria Ashley is going to bring us, because I know it will be worth it in the end.
