Dear Skylar,
Five years. That’s a long time to go without talking to somebody, especially someone who was such a huge part of your life…
A letter from my first kiss and my childhood everything…from prison.
He may be nicknamed Saint, but this sweet, sexy biker most definitely has a wild streak. Hearing from him draws me right back into the Knights of Fury motorcycle club—the people I’ll always think of as family.
He’s still the only man I’ve ever wanted.
Each good, old-fashioned letter from my “prison pen pal” has my heart racing. Which is nothing compared to how I feel when Saint surprises me in person, as a free man.
I was just a kid the last time we saw each other, but the connection between us now is anything but innocent.
He’s the type of man who would do anything to protect his woman. And with my world crashing down around me, that’s exactly what I’m going to need.
There is nothing as great in this world as the moment you find out one of you’re favorite authors is releasing a brand new MC series! Absolutely nothing greater!
When I first heard that Chantal Fernando was writing a new MC series, I was over the moon excited. There is something about the way this author writes and the details she gives that has me always coming back for more. I love the creative flow she gives, but I especially love her creative flow revolving around the MC world.
Saint is the first book in the Knights Of Fury series and is told from Skylar’s point of view. Saint tells a tale of a young woman who is desperately searching for truth about who she is and where she comes from.
At a young age, Skylar learned whatever she did and whoever she became would never be good enough for her mother. But there was always one man she could count on, her stepfather and the Knights of Fury club president and founder, Hammer.
Hammer was always the man in her corner, smoothing things over when her and her mother got into little spats, and making sure Skylar was taken care of. Until the night her mother decided to wreak havoc on her perfect MC world and left the MC world behind in a cloud of dust.
Years later, Skylar is barely living life, working menial jobs just to get by. Until an unexpected letter shows up in the mail. A letter from her teenage crush, Saint. A letter that is about to redirect her whole life and bring her back to the place she was always meant to be, with the Knights Of Fury.
My Thoughts:
I loved Saint and Skylar’s story! I loved the premise of a young teenage girl crushing on a man and then reuniting years later to find that the man was crushing on her and still is. True love is in the works with this one! I’m usually not a fan of age gap romances, especially one where it includes a teenager and a twenty year old man. I find them to be very creepy if not told right. Saint and Skylar’s story is far from the creepy with one simple reason, Saint hid his emotions. Throughout the beginning chapters, you can clearly see that Skylar has mad love for Saint but Saints attitude comes off as a best friends relationship rather than one of romance. I loved the way this story was told. It made me feel more for Saint and Skylar when they eventually reunited and grew into something more.
I really loved the father/daughter relationship between Skylar and Hammer. There’s an unspoken kinship between the two that if spotted across the room you’d think they were blood. They were tight and the ending completely tore my heart apart. I felt all weepy and I may have shed a tear or two. I’m woman enough to admit it.
Now onto why I dropped a star, I felt a few key moments in this novel were rushed. I would have liked a little more explanation on Skylar’s mother towards the ending. And maybe a few more kinship moments between Skylar and her brothers.
Overall, I really enjoyed this read. I’f you’re looking for a friends to lovers read with a little suspense, I highly recommend you pick this one up! It’s too good to be missed! Saint was the perfect story to start a brand new series. I’m now invested! I need my next fix
