The boy I knew is gone.
Maisy


Rule follower. Straight laced. Goody-goody.

I’m as well-behaved as they get, but then the worst thing ever happened to me…I caught the interest of the bad boy. Wilder isn’t the same guy I idolized when we were kids. He made that clear the day he moved back to Ridgeview.

He hunts me, stalks me, surrounds me from all sides. I’m his new favorite plaything. Again. Last year was bad enough, but as graduation looms his claws are in me once more and he refuses to let go.

And worst of all? I think I like it.

The Wilder name is a curse.
Fox

Pristine. Perfect. Fake.

Once upon a time we were friends. Then her family destroyed mine. In return, I’ll destroy hers.

I’m the resident black shadow this town fears. Whispers about. Everyone remembers that a Wilder means bad news. My sweet daisy should fear me because she’s the key piece in my revenge plot against her crooked parents.

I’m not her friend anymore.

I’ll take them all down, starting with her.
This is a New Adult enemies-to-lovers high school romance that explores mature/dark themes and dubious situations suitable for readers 18+. Read the series in any order as complete standalones.


The bad boys of Ridgeview are arrogant antiheroes brought to their knees by their spitfire heroines, so if you’re looking for a nice guy hero who grovels, this story isn’t for you. Strong heroines, alphaholes, and a satisfying happily ever after guaranteed!

STORY:
I can’t believe this is the end. I love this series, and I am in love with all the books but more so book 2 and 3. I also love book 4 with Fox and Maisy. What I found ok about this story, the first 40-50% of the book. The pace was ok. Fox came back to town seeking revenge and to solve a mystery. I wanted more scenes from high school and or more interaction during the bully stages with both characters. I felt I got this in books 1-3. I also felt the focus was more on the mystery Fox wanted to solve in the beginning.

With that being said, I have no issues with whom both characters are individually. Fox was everything. He was the bad boy that everyone was afraid of, that they would hear tales about. Maisy was the good girl. The yoga goody good girl. They knew each other as children with animosity brewing from Fox’s side years later made for an interesting read.


CHEMISTRY:
I heart their physical chemistry. I am so surprise by Maisy. She is not shy at all. The physical connection during the angry stage was good, but once they put aside all that anger, I thought it was amazing.


SECONDARY CHARACTERS
I love, love, love that we got to see all the couples come together from all 3 books prior. Connor and Thea has me seeing hearts in my eyes. The way they embrace Masiy in their circle and defends her, love it. When I really enjoy a series, I always hope for a next generation with the couples kids, however, I feel like the author should continue with a new series but still maintain it in Ridgeview and give us a new breed of bullies to lovers.


Overall, the beginning for me was ok, but once we got past this, I love how the story flowed and Fox’s and Maisy’s chemistry.


***I don’t equate these stories to real life. It’s about personal taste and what you would or want to tolerate with the books you read. I know we all have different opinions and preferences with what we read and hope this review was helpful.

"My heart knows yours, Fox Michael Wilder. It always has. I never ever forgot. Did yours forget me?"
"No. Never."

This is a two POV book, told by the POVs of Maisy and Fox.

I kind of liked Maisy as an FMC because of her independence and her being so headstrong. This was marketed as a Bully Romance, which; let´s be honest; it wasn´t really. I mean sure he is mean to her on two or three occassions, but the vibes are pretty much insta-lust and the whole time while he is "bullying" her they are having sex, which doesn´t really add up for me. I liked the sexual tension, but in my opinion this was more of a "childhood friends to enemies to lovers" book than a bully romance.

The side characters were okay, I think I liked Thea the most with her bakery and all her sunshine vibes, she seemed like such a good friend to Maisy. Other than that, there weren´t that many side characters. It kind of felt like the side characters each had their own background. What I disliked was how some side characters somehow just vanished after the first half of the book.

The plot was wild. If you read the trigger warnings, let me tell you, I really don´t understand how all of that could go down in High School, but okay. The pacing felt incredible slow to me, I wouldn´t mind if the book was a good 100 pages shorter but a bit more fast paced. Like I mentioned earlier, this doesn´t really classify as a bully romance for me, I don´t even know in which category to put this.

Overall it was an okay-ish read that felt really slow and I honestly don´t know if I want to pick other books in this series, I don´t think I will be.

trigger warnings: corruption (especially police corruption), gun violence, bullying, extremely controlling parents, blackmail, mafia, sexual assault (not caused by the love interest), threats of rape (not made by the love interest), mentions of cheating/affair, kidnapping, loss of loved ones, murder

ARC provided by the author in exchange for an honest review.

Savage Wilder was one of my most anticipated releases for this year and it was worth to wait for Fox and Maisy as their story seemed to be the most mysterious one - and it really was.

Fox and Maisy used to be best buddies, but Fox suddenly disappears, taking his promise to marry Maisy one day with him (love children engagement, I’m legit promised to 3 boys myself). Years later he’s back but the love for his childhood best friend is gone replaced with pure hatred.

The story starts with Fox hating Maisy and that’s what kept me hooked to this book so much as I couldn’t wait to finally find out what is really bothering Fox. He was really the mysterious one which added to his bad boy attitude. However, once we got to know him better I could understand his reasoning for everything and I really started to fall in love with him. He has been through some bad stuff and my heart was breaking for him.

Maisy was an amazing heroine, although she might not be my favourite from the series (Gemma owns my heart… that’s the fact). I loved her strength and her boldness. She always stood her ground and tried to fight her battler whenever someone treated her poorly. Sometimes, she got a little naive, but that’s totally normal in her age. In the end, she grew into an incredible woman.

Their relationship was so amazing and all the plot twists were so unexpected and made the story even more exciting. I really loved the connection the couple had which had a great development throughout the story with some touches of drama. It also had glimpses to their past which added some spark to the story.

I’m a little sad that this series is over now, but it was really a great finale! If you haven’t already, I totally recommend giving this series a try.

“Wanting Maisy Landry more than I hate her and her family is the worst nightmare I’ve ever faced.”


3.75/5

Savage Wilder is the fourth and final book in the Sinners and Saints series and follows Fox Wilder and Maisy Landry. Once upon a time, Maisy and Fox were best friends and spent all their time together, but all that changed when Fox's parents died, and he had to grow up in the foster care system. Ten years later, Fox is back in Ridgeview and is seeking revenge. He blames Maisy and her family for what happened and is willing to make them suffer.

I'm a little sad that this series is now over because I love the SAS characters, and the books were very entertaining. Nevertheless, Maisy and Fox's story ended the series well, and after DevlinBlair, they are probably my favorite couple. I'm obsessed with the childhood best friends (to enemies) to lovers trope, so I was very excited to get my hands on this book, and I wasn't disappointed! This book was action-packed, and it was interesting to see Fox working with Maisy and the rest of the characters to get justice for what happened when he was younger. Sometimes many things/drama happened at the same time, and it was a little overwhelming, but overall it didn't impact Maisy and Fox's story.

Throughout the book, Maisy Landry was an incredible character, and I fell in love with her right from the beginning. I love the confidence, determination, and strength she had. She always stood up for herself and did everything she could to be happy and true to herself. I adore her personality, and I need her to be my girlfriend! Fox Wilder was a very mysterious character, and at first, I didn't know what to think of him. But as his story unfolded, I grew to like him and also understood his actions and emotions. He was determined to get closure, and I'm glad he did so with the help of his closed ones. Together, Maisy and Fox had a lot of chemistry, I liked their dynamic and all their angsty moments a lot, and the flashback scenes between them were very adorable. And as I said, they are my favorite couple of the series after DevlinBlair.

Overall, I liked Savage Wilder and the whole SAS series a lot, and I'm glad we got to see them all together one more time. I also love the close friendship they have developed over time. Veronica Eden has teased her next work a lot in this book, and I'm very excited to meet the new characters because they seem interesting!

3,8🌟

Savage Wilder is the final book of this series and I think this book is really great as the ending of the series. It's really bittersweet to see them all go and I really like fox and maisy so much.

Maisy is such a great heroine. Love that she's so badass and she doesn't give up easily. The way she stood up for herself and always doing her best to make herself happy is admirable. For Fox at the beginning he's the mysterious one, but as the story progressed, I liked gradually. I definitely didn't expect the plot twist. However I think I love the relationship more than the whole mistery thing. They're unbreakable and they're really strong together. And I loved how everyone help them to solve the problem. I love their bonding and I really love to see them all together. All in all, this is such the perfect way to end the series.

“Fox Wilder is a black shadow.Mysterious, terrifying, and bad news to anyone who crosses him. And somehow, I’m the person he hates the most”



This story kept me on a never ending rollercoaster of every kind of emotions known by human kind .

reading this story was like being held hostage by this force that won’t let me put it down until I was finished . In other words it was a real page turner , I finished It in one night .

This one follows Maisy’s and her childhood friend , Fox’s story .

When they were kids , they inseparable, best friends , but then something changed , and their world wasn’t the same anymore.

But some years later , payback bring Fox Wilder back. He wasn’t the same kid who used to look at Maisy like she held the moon. Now he was looking for revenge ,against all her family and no one could stop him.

“I’ve existed like everything is upside-down for so long, but Maisy sets it right side up again. And it kills me, because I can’t have this.”



Maisy was a kind and very simple soul . She loved yoga , sunsets and the ocean. She didn’t have one bad bone in her . she was the quiet one, obedient and selfless . But then Fox Wilder happened , and everything changed. He challenged her , made her suffer but also feel things she never did.

Their journey wasn’t easy , it was filled with angst , resentment , but also so much passion and chemistry.

“We found our way back to each other”



I simply loved every single page. This was the end of a beautiful series , and I can’t wait to see what will come next!

--->For more check out my blog here<---

I gave it 4.5 stars

I hope you’ll enjoy it like I did

3.5 | I wanted to start this review by summarizing the plot, but seriously, the real question is HOW THE HELL DID WE GET HERE!? How did we go from the popular guys bullying their love interests, to psycho teachers, hackers and ties to some mob? WILD.

"I was surviving before, but I wasn't living until Maisy Landry was mine again."


PLOT.
Many years ago, Maisy's and Fox's family were very good friends, but it only took one day and one secret to break that relationship, taking Fox out of Maisy's life. Now it's Maisy' senior year and she's more than ready to leave her golden cage, but Fox is back in town, more mysterious than ever, and ready to terrorize and exact revenge on Maisy and her family. But the truth runs deeper than what Fox thinks and it seems like this small town has more secrets than meets the eye.

CHARACTERS.
↬ Maisy Landry: PLEASE MARRY ME. Seriously, this girl became my favorite character in the whole series. Maisy went from a happy childhood to living under a roof that controlled her every move, not letting her be the Maisy that Fox once knew. She was the perfect daughter of hers in her golden cage by strict instructions from her mother, but still she found space to show herself as she really was and to live the freedom that she so desired.

Besides, she might seem like the good girl who didn't make a sound, but Maisy was always ready to fight; first, against Fox for being mean against her for no apparent reason, then the rumors at her school, and then her parents who were the biggest pieces of $#!/ in history.

↬ Fox Wilder: If i'm being completely honest, there's nothing new about the guy who had everything taken away from him who comes back to take revenge on his once-best friend, but Fox had so many lost puppy vibes that it was impossible not to love him!

If you are looking for a bully romance then you are in the right place because he was really mean to Maisy and had a lot of satisfaction watching her suffer, but also his love and lust for her was so big that I loved the fact that he realized for himself that Maisy should never have been the target of his revenge, and that it wasn't her who had to basically spell everything that was wrong with his plan to him.

Overall, I really enjoyed the conclusion of this series and how all the loose ends came together along the way. And another thing that I really liked was being able to see each of the characters from the previous books, and the way new characters and plots were introduced.

4 stars

Savage Wilder is the fourth and last book of the Sinners and Saints series written by Veronica Eden. It follows Fox Wilder and Maisy Landry, whom we were introduced to in the past book. First of all, I have to say I'm getting sad as I write this review because we have to say bye to SAS characters.

Tropes: best-friends to enemies, sunshine/grumpy, bully.

Plot: Fox Wilder and Maisy Landry were best friends when they were children until one day, something happened and Fox's parents died and he dissapears. Now, years later, he's back in town and has a revenge plot against Maisy's parents where she plays an important role.

Characters:
- Maisy Landry was incredible, I fell in love with her when we first met her in Ruthless Bishop and then in We've Always Matched. However, after reading her story, I love her even more. She's such an interesting and well-written character. Maisy is a strong woman, who's confident in herself, doesn't let anyone pass over her. I enjoyed that she didn't stay quiet and always had an answer for Fox. Furthermore, I also liked the fact that Maisy wasn't ashamed to talk about her sexual life. It was refrashing
- Fox Wilder is our mysterious hero. After spending a decade with so much anger for his parents' death, Fox is willing to do anything for revenge. He's determined to get to the bottom of all of this and, I really admire that. Fox, again, is an interesting character that grows on you as you continue reading. I loved Fox and Maisy as individual characters and couple.

Special mention: I loved seeing everyone working together in order to help Fox and Maisy. I'm glad we got to see them all together one more time. Those scenes made me so happy and miss my people so much. (Devlin and Blair, I'm looking at you two).

Final thoughts:
Overall I enjoyed Savage Wilder. At some point I felt like there was too much going on, kind of too intense, but I think Veronica did a great job with this last book and at telling maisyfox's personal stories. I really enjoyed the little flashbacks and memories from their childhood and I'm excited to see more of the new characters.

I want to thank Veronica for writing this series and these characters, some of whom have become my comfort people ( devlinblair <3)

If you like bully romance, I think this is a great one for you.

This is a childhood friends to bully to lovers romance. Fox and Maisy were friends when they were eight when Fox suddenly went missing. But now, around 10 years later he's back and he's been holding a grudge against her for her betrayal to him. But his hatred for her is just as much as his love and lust for her, it's just buried deep down inside of him.

Savage Wilder is the fourth of four interconnected enemies to lovers stories in the Sinners and Saints Series.

If you like weak pushover heroines and nice guys this one ain't for you, but if you dig strong women and smug antiheroes, then you're in the right place! Hold onto your hearts, because these guys aren't above stealing.

Each book is part of a series but can be enjoyed as a standalone.

The plot was boring and the whole hatred towards maisy for something she did when she was 8 years old was dumb but apart from that they are definitely my favourites in the series. I love them as individuals but even more as a couple.

Maisy Landry is definitely my favourite character from the series I love her personality and the way she carries herself. She’s clever, thoughtful and considerate. I’m happy she went against her parents and did what makes her happy. I also loved her relationship with her brother it started off weak but towards the end their relationship really developed and showed how much they care for one another.

Fox was quite a mysterious character before his book was released and even more so in this one. It’s understandable how he reacted and went about his retribution seeing as though he was mourning his family but I feel like with their tropes the whole plot could have taken a different route which would have intrigued me more.

Overall I’d give this book 3 stars as even though I struggled to read some parts I did genuinely like their relationship and thought they complimented each other well. I’m happy these childhood friends got their happy ever after

Plot Summary :
Fox Wilder and Maisy used to be best friends. That is until she betrayed him in the worst way, She broke their promise which led to the death of Fox's parents and his life turned for the worst. But now he was back. He had been ruthless in bullying her but had never confronted her directly. But now she had wanted his attention. And that was what she would get! And trust him , she would regret ever crossing his path.

Maisy is so lonely. Stuck with parents whose only mission is to mold her for their benefits , the only bright spot she had in her life was Fox. That is until he was ripped away from her too. But now he was back. Gone was the boy who she loved and in place was a ruthless man who won’t stop at anything to make her pay for whatever she thought he had done.

Overall Opinion :
OMG. I am just so sad to see this world of characters go! But the best thing is that the author gave me this tantalizing taste of what’s to come and trust me , none of you are prepared! Maisy and Fox have the best tale ever and I have been intrigued by them since Fox made an appearance in Thea’s book. He has so much hate inside of him and I wanted to see why that was so and what he would do.

And man did he not disappoint me! I loved the way things unfolded. Even though the actual reason why he hated Maisy seemed sort of dumb to me , but I got where he was coming from. The finale is the best part of this series and all you guys need to read this bully romance book right now!

3.5/5 stars

Savage Wilder is the last book in the Sinners of Saint series and I'm so sad to see them all go!! Fox and Maisy were an amazing couple and definitely the right way to end the series.

Maisy was such a fun heroine to read about. She's a total badass but she also does yoga and her bond with her brother was so cute. Fox on the other hand is the typical New Adult bad boy who hates Maisy and is a jerk to her. I definitely think Fox and Maisy had good chemistry despite him hating her for something so long ago. I loved how she always stood up for herself and never let him walk all over her. She was the shining star of this book.

As for plot, I did like the whole mystery element to the story but overall I did get confused by what was happening and I didn't understand some of the things that were happening on the side. I think I like this book more for the couple and characters than for the plot but both were pretty fun to read about!!

"For every minute I've spent hating her, I hate myself a little more because I've never been able to let her go. The truth is, I never stopped loving her."

Savage Wilder is the steamy and addictive conclusion to the Sinners and Saints series. We finally get the story between Maisy and Fox. These two used to be childhood best friends until Fox's parents died and he disappeared from town. Ten years later, he's back in town and seeking revenge on Maisy's family for what happened.

Maisy Landry is one of the most resilient and down-to-earth characters. I loved her personality. She's strong and confident and always finds a way to joy to those around her. I really resonated with her calming and healthy spirit and lifestyle. She cherished adventure, nature, yoga, and crystals. She cares deeply about her friends and is determined to fight for what's right. I really connected with her <3 Fox Wilder was a very intense and somewhat emotionally unstable character. He often lashes out since he is fueled by so much anger and trauma. At the same time, he's a genius detective and cleverly hilarious. He's a sucker for Maisy and I loved their scenes.

These two were so adorable. The banter and drama was hysterical. I loved their dynamic. There was so much angst and sexual tension between these two like the sensual scenes were spicy... seriously some of the spiciest scenes Miss V has ever written, or at least equivalent to our king and queen Devin and Blair. I really loved how these two supported each other until the very end. I'm a sucker for the "I act like I hated you my entire life but I'm actually in love with you. It's always been you" trope. UGH YES.

In conclusion, I'm feeling very nostalgic writing this review. I can't believe this series is over. It feels like yesterday when I first picked up SAS. These characters are my absolute babies and I've cherished every single one of their stories. They'll forever hold a special place in my heart. Veronica is such a talented writer and I'm so excited for all her future books. I'm very eager to get into Veronica's new series which is hinted in this gem.

A really excellent read. This book was action-packed and beyond sexy. If you like high school bully romance, this a great book to pick up.

4/5 STARS

Let me start by saying this book was everything i excepted and even more. Savage Wilder is fourth and final book of the series and I’d highly recommend y’all to read it. I feel really nostalgic now that we have to say goodbye to the characters. But maybe we’ll meet them again someday. HOPEFULLY!
I have to say that Maisy is by far my favorite character out of all others. Although Devlin and Blair are still my no. 1 but Maisy has won my heart all over.

I absolutely LOVED Fox and Maisy together and even individually. There childhood moments were to live for honesty! But I just wished there to be more moments of their past together. That would’ve been more exciting.

The plot is intriguing and different from the other books and Veronica Eden definitely did a great job with this one. Savage Wilder wrapped up the series perfectly.
I wanna thank the author for giving us these badass stories and for inspiring us with her characters! I highly recommend everyone to give this series a fair chance. ♥️

This was a lot to take. It started with Fox bullying Maisy, they were childhood friends turned enemies, (at least on Fox's side only). Maisy didn't know what she did to Fox to deserve all of his loathing, but she was persistent in fixing their friendship.

Idk what to feel honestly about their characters. Fox was a bully, he was just downright mean and rude to Maisy. I did understand he was hurt and wanted to find out what happened to his parents. But I'm still not onboard with him directing his anger and hurt towards Maisy.

As for Maisy, I'm not sure whether to applaud her relentless effort for mending her relationship with Fox or to shake her so hard. Sometimes I think she was just a good person overall, and that she always tries to see the person behind all of Fox's aggression. But at times I also think she was pathetic for letting him walk all over her.

I've been pissed so much that when they finally got together it didn't matter to me anymore. I just wanted for this to end and read the rest of the book. There were so many lies and mysteries about what really happened to Fox's parents. I did like this part of the book and Fox and Maisy's own investigation.

I feel sorry for Fox for the betrayal he felt and that he only wasted a decade of his life in anger and revenge. But I'm also satisfied that at the end of the day he found answers to what really happened with his family.

Overall, this was okay. It took me awhile to finally root for the two of them. It was hard to get past the bullying part of their story, Fox was really a grade-a asshat. I also liked the fact that the H was the virgin in this story. He was so in love with her that he couldn't imagine his life with anyone else.

So I guess, if readers want some bully romance with some suspense and mystery this book will be up their alley.

so much wrong with this book. i cant even start. he is physically abusive, emotionally abusive and then decides out of no where he loves her? her best friend is married at 19 (nothing wrong with that- if it’s the right person) BUT how she met him was through him blackmailing her because she sent him nude picture accidentally. LIKE TELL ME THATS A JOKE. that’s sexual assault. and there’s apparently nothing wrong with that????? the amount of times fox has called himself a “bad boy” is inane. reality check, you call yourself bad boy- you’re not a bad boy. how about we treat women with respect instead? instead of blaming them for things they haven’t done. and slut shaming. he spray painted “easy” on her school locker because she let him finger her once at a party. she’s 18. another thing i find weird is the fact that she has a thing for not wearing underwear at school. she wears a school uniform.. and no underwear. that to me, is very strange on the authors part. no one, i repeat NO ONE is going commando at high school when wearing a skirt. what’s with the sexualisation of this? it’s so weird to me. i’m only on page 168 and it’s just… there’s no way to describe it. how he is the love interest and treats her like this, i don’t know. i’ll add more to this page when i read more

Is it too bad to say that most reading i enjoy in this book is of cameos of all the other three s. So the plot doesn’t make sense to me so is the reason for bullying . There was no proper reason for fox to hate maisy. Maisy character was all over the place one minute she is all good with her parents and next she wants to be free. It was not all bad but i don’t have much good to say about this book also.

The ”he was a punk and she did ballet (yoga)"vibessss thanks veronica that’s what I needed  

“The truth is, I never stopped loving her. It’s existed beneath the surface all these years. I can’t cut her out of the hold she’s kept on my heart”

 
Today i am reviewing one of the most anticipated books of the year for me, savage Wilder! Since ruthless bishop, when maisy and fox were introduced to the story I was soo curious about these two, as a couple and as an individual, fox somber with that dark mysterious  aura and maisy totally good vibes enchanted me from the beginning, even more when I learned that the trope from the book of the these two  would be friends to enemies to lovers, aka my favorite and the best one.
 
The book starts showing the two children, with VERY cute scenes that warmed in my heart, then a turnaround happens and maisy breaks a promise made to fox, which ends up destroying fox family and causing the two characters to be separated by years old. at the present time fox's mission is to destroy maisy and her family, even though i found the reason for his hatred for maisy a little stupid, i understand a little. fox has this dark energy due to everything he went through and he is a character that I loved a lot, he is very similar to what I imagined and I saw many similarities in him with my other favorite sinners character, devlin, seriously both of them together I would love it and I really want to see it in the next epilogue, in short he has all this dark facade, with the motorcycle, the tattoos and the black clothes that I love but with maisy he is sooo sweet (less in a part of the book, let's say he still has some hurt stuff to deal  lol), I loved seeing his scenes with his half brother, seeing that there are people who care about him and that he is not alone makes me so so happy!
 
 
 
Now talking about my best girl and favorite character from sinners , she is so precious like i dont have words for her ,maisy landry i love you so much , if you want to drop fox to be with me i would say yes in a minute !okay but seriously a maisy is AMAZING .she is so strong, she imposes herself, she doesn't let fox pass over her, she refutes what he says, seriously she is the best, her free spirit enchanted me and made her a light character, really charming, the way she is not ashamed to talk about sex and her sexual life earned me a lot of laughs and made me love her even more, she making her dreams come true and next to fox made sooo proud, maisy you are the best babe

“My heart knows yours, Fox Michael Wilder. It always has. I never ever forgot.” I lower my voice. “Did yours forget me?” “No. Never.”

 
Maisyfox came to share the first place on my heart for my favorite couple on the series with devlin blair! they are cute from beginning to the end, soulmates, fate, destined to be together (fox probably wouldn't believe it but it's the truth!) they manage to be so cute and at the same time sooo hot (those choke scenes killed me dead bia rip helppp they are SO good). I admit that the story plot didn't surprise and shocked me very much (that's why I'm giving 4.5 stars) but the couple made it worth every minute, they far exceeded my expectations and I really hope to read new things about them in the future because since I finished the book they didnt't leave my mind.
 
I would like to make some points of another things I loved in the book: thea's relationship with maisy, in ruthless bishop we see a little and now in savage too, I love this friendship very much and I love them both, the way they always support each other and are really best friends made me very happy, now something else, i didn’t know that i needed scenes from devlin and connor defending maisy until i really read them, the two of them beeing over protective with her is just perfect and I love it . I loved the dynamic of all the group together and I really need more scenes of all of them. well this book was very good and a perfect ending for the series, i already miss everyone! but knowing that i will win an epilogue from my best boy devlin, i'm already very happy. Veronica opened up for her new project at the end of savage wilder and i'm already excited to read it!

Savage Wilder is the last book of the Sinners and Saints series following Fox and Maisy’s story.

In the previous book we met Maisy’s character and were a bit introduced to the person she always felt close to, Fox, but now hit with confusion as to how things changed between them. Finally having their book we dive into their story and the reasons why things are how they are now.

Maisy Landry is such an interesting character that I enjoyed reading about. Throughout the chapters I connected a lot more with her personality and the way she carried herself. I applaud her for the way she handled moments that seemed like she would become weak but ended up becoming stronger. Fox Wilder is the mystery character of it all. I understood his emotions throughout the story and the way he went about certain things. Even in the end I was still able to understand why he felt a specific way about the moments he had with Maisy.

The end is here and Veronica Eden concluded this series in a great way. Seeing characters from the previous books was everything. How even when they’re all so different from each other, together they hold strong emotions within them. Friendships are truly one of the best things between characters and Veronica really wrote that well in this series and concluding with it!

To put it quite simply this book’s plot was a mixture of the Mindf*ck series and Bully, not as intense but involved whole family revenge, etc. Overall, it was okay. I mostly skimmed through it because it was kind of boring or maybe I was not in the right mood. The plot was okay, dialogues were somewhat acceptable. I’m glad I can finally get it out of my TBR list. Anyway, Maisy’s friends were kind of cringe. If I go on a picnic with my friends, having each other’s tongues shoved in their mouths is not something I will tolerate or expect them to do. I get it you’re in love but please no😕 It was embarrassing, Maisy was the only single one she was literally 7th wheeling and they made sure to rub it on her face.

Savage Wilder is the fourth and final standalone in Veronica Eden's Sinners and Saints series. You don't have to read any of the previous instalments in this series but I completely recommend them. This is spoken in Dual Perspectives.

I fell in love with everything that was Fox and Maisy. This book took me on a wild ride full of revenge, mystery, secrets, lies and all the good sexual tension that lit up my kindle. This kept me fully immersed until the very last page and I didn't want it to end.

This series is without a doubt a top favourite of mine and Veronica has definitely moved her way into being one of my favourite authors. Stop what you're doing and get to reading This series now! I cannot wait for the Crows!

we need to talk about how these are the ugliest covers i’ve ever seem in my entire life.

that being said, i stopped reading at 67% by this time they had already fucked and were very much in love, i couldn’t care less about the big suspense and it got kinda boring so i did not finish it.

i honestly got more interested at the crazy dudes from the other college (don’t even know if they were in college don’t remember at all) idk bout that let’s see how it goes in their series :))

Savage Wilder is the final book in Sinners and Saints series that centers around Fox & Maisy.

In the previous book, we have met both of these two characters which we had a small snippet about their relationship. Basically, Fox Wilder and Maisy Landry were childhood best friends. However, something happened that made Fox left town and never returned until a decade later. After he finally returns, Fox's persona wasn't what Maisy remembered. He hated her with all his guts, which lead him to plot revenge for her entire family.

First of all, I was quite surprised that this book isn't entirely romance. Like, I didn't expect for this book to have a major mystery element where they had to investigate a case. But, I'm not complaining. In fact, I actually liked it a lot because it's pretty thrilling and suspenseful. Furthermore, Fox and Maisy managed to capture my attention with their chemistry and the way they care and fight for one another.

Overall, I really enjoyed Savage Wilder and I think Veronica has done a great job in concluding the entire series. Pretty sure that I will be missing the characters a lot more in the future. Either way, I really recommend everyone to read this book!

I was so confused in the beginning. And then I loved it. But then they barely spent time together. And then they got together halfway through. But then I go bored. But also I love the writing. But they were very much teenagers. I actually didn’t like how plot driven this was, and that I know is a personal thing. Virgin hero! 3.5 ⭐️
