Savage Hate by Helen Scott, Zoey Shelby
5.0
I was SO amped for this book, after finishing the Sweetest Revenge series, I couldn't wait for Melody's story to be told. After what she did I am glad that Lyric (her sister) was able to figure out how to repay the debt they had with Dante Leonardi without it being herself. Side note: if you haven't read that series, I definitely recommend it! You won't be totally lost, but it'll help as to WHY Melody was forced into this marriage, because it's not the typical way.
Melody is not happy at all that she's forced to marry Dante Leonardi, a known heartless and cold crime boss. She tries to figure out how to get out of this arrangement, but she's warned to obey her husband and do as he says. She's on the fence about what Dante is really looking for with this marriage but she knows she is stuck.
It’s a very rocky start to their relationship, Dante will not stand for disrespect in front of his family or men. Melody has not had an easy childhood, dealing with the loss of her mother from a young age, her father who was… a bastard (to put it lightly), and all of the other things she’s been through. If you haven’t read the other series I don’t want to spoil it for you. So she’s been sheltered and thrown into situations that usually she can work her way out of them, but not this time.
We learn about Dante and that even though he rules his mafia with an iron fist he truly wants to protect Melody. There’s a lot of threats, deceit & secrets that’ll keep you on the edge of your seat with this book. And the cliffhanger will make you question everything.
I’m excited to see where Helen & Zoey take Melody & Dante’s story next.
