It provides the history of this secret Society, the Academy and really sets the scene for this series. I loved the prequel Dark Desires and fully recommend you read it first. This is an excellent dark suspense romance, an enemies to lovers with revenge and bullying aspects, plus obsession and forbidden attraction. Savage Games is the first book in Rachel Leigh’s new series The Bastards Of Boulder Cove. In the thick of it all, I begin to see the truth.

The three leaders of this place-Crew, Jagger, and Neo-have always been an aching thorn in my side.

There’s a rhythm to a lot of them in which a typical gag is set up, but then it’s twist is the hyperdetailed facts of a particular animal being explained to counter the gag or set up the punchline. There are a good handful of gags and jokes that were enjoyable. It makes it awkward and difficult to enjoy. The size and layout of this book does the material no favors. I found that every time I turned the book to read a page like that, it was not only humorless but also really annoying as it broke up my rhythm of reading. There are also times in which you’ll need to turn the book and a page sideways… why they didn’t go with a two-page spread or even skip the page altogether will remain a mystery to me. There were numerous times in which I felt like an old person refusing to put on their glasses to read something, but the problem was A) I did have glasses on and B) much like when an old person finally caves and puts them on, they discover that it wasn’t worth the effort. What I instantly realized was that the size of the book was much too small for Mosco’s work.
