Claimed by Elle Kennedy
4.0

FULL REVIEW::::::

First sentence: “I need to get drunk and laid-not necessarily in that order,” Rylan announced as the group crossed the threshold into the bar.

As soon as I found out that Elle Kennedy had a new book releasing I was like, “I have to have it.” And that was before the cover and synopsis were released. Those two things only added to my excitement because of…reasons. Okay, fine. That cover is yumalicious. *fans self*

Let’s go straight to the review before I start drooling over the cover.

THE SEXY SCENES WILL MAKE YOU BLUSH

We all know Elle can write the hell out of a sexy time scene. The sexy scenes in the Off Campus series are steamy. In the Killer Instincts, they’re smokin’ hot. And in CLAIMED? On fire. We’re talking explosive. They’re very, very hot. They will make you blush. Like, whoa. Prepare to blush a lot while reading CLAIMED because there are A LOT of sexy scenes. Better yet, have a fan handy too.

STRONG HEROES & HEROINES

Now, now there’s more to CLAIMED than just sexy scenes. Hudson leaves behind the only life she has ever known in the city and runs into Connor’s group of Outlaws. She has never lived in the moment like they have and she has to adapt to their way of life. Because of her ties to the city, she has to lie about her real identity. She’s definitely not weak. She’s eager to learn and she goes after what she wants.

Connor hasn’t asked to be the leader of the group of Outlaws, he just is. He doesn’t want to let Hudson join the group, but the group convinces him to. He’s an asshole most of the time. He wants revenge against the enforcers. It takes a while for Hudson to get under his skin and break down the walls he has built up. Their chemistry together was off the charts and they did develop an actual relationship over the course of the book, but what will happen when Hudson’s real identity comes to light?

SETS THE STAGE FOR THE SERIES

Elle Kennedy has created an intriguing world and introduced characters that I want to see more from. CLAIMED was a good series starter filled with heat and action. Elle knows how to introduce side characters and get you all excited to read more about them. There’s a certain Outlaw who I hope gets his own book, very soon. There were some things left unanswered in CLAIMED that I can’t wait to find more about in the next series. I have a feeling this series is going to be like the Killer Instincts, meaning each book will get better.

Conclusion:

Elle Kennedy always delivers a well-written story in whatever genre she writes in. CLAIMED was no exception and she brought her A-game. Filled with heat, action, strong characters, and an intriguing world CLAIMED sucks you in from the get go and leaves you wanting more. I can’t wait to see where this series goes next and to find out more about these characters.
