Elsie has a problem. She has a mystery she is bent on solving, a mystery that led her to run for her life down the streets of Navesink Bank until she found herself rescued by a sexy stranger.
Paine has a past. He’s done everything in his power to move on from it, to distance himself from the things he has done.

4 Stars!!
'Savior' is the third book in Jessica Gadziala’s series entitled 'Savages' and features Paine, male character we met in the previous books in the series. This third book can be read as standalone, but features secondary characters from 'Monster' and 'Killer' the other two books in the series. So, I highly recommend for you to read them first since you don’t want to miss how the other two ‘bad boys’ meet their ladies and also the dynamic between these three strong, alpa males.
'Savior' was without a doubt my favorite Jessica Gadziala book to date. A great mix of sweetness and sexiness, this third book in the series was highly entertaining from the beginning until the end. It was well-paced, with a great solid plot and just a little bit of action and suspense to make everything more appealing.
Elsie’s sister has gone missing for a few weeks now. She is desperate to find some answers, but the police can’t do anything about it since her father insists her sister just ran away with some guy like she did in the past. Elsie knows something happened with her sister, so she's willing to do anything to find her. She starts playing detective, but very soon she finds herself in serious trouble for snooping around. Lucky enough, she is saved by a tattooed African American guy, named Paine who apparently feels the need to protect her from the moment he meets her.
Paine is not exactly known as a good man. For years he tried to forget his past and who he was once upon a time. He is a tattoos artist now, trying to distance himself from all the bad thinks he has done years ago, but when he meets a sweet, gorgeous blonde who needs his help he’s ready to do anything to make sure she’s save. Anything!
Jessica Gadziala delivered an enjoyable, pretty addictive read that held my attention from start to finish. The story was written well, the story-line was interesting and the two main characters were well portrayed and endearing from the beginning. I liked Elsie. She’s smart, hard-working, independent, strong and fun. I loved her determination to find the truth about her sister, her confidence and the fact that she knew what she wanted in and out of bed. The way she accepted Paine’s past was also pretty great. She never judged him, she never pushed him away thinking she is better than him simply because her family has money and I liked that about her.
Paine simply stole the show for me here. He was such a swoon-worthy hero. A badass tattooed alpha man, Paine was fantastic from the moment he was introduced. Sex-on-a-stick, protective and possessive, he was everything Elsie needed. They complimented each other perfectly and I just loved their connection. Their chemistry was off the charts and the sex scenes between them well written and so hot. They were so combustible together!
Once again, the cast of supporting characters were engaging, well-written and I just loved their bond and their interactions.
Overall, a fantastic read!

“I liked his strange mix of old school manners, modern respect for my ability to handle myself, street smarts, alpha manliness, and well... sexiness. Let's face it, that was a huge factor. The man was hot. And he had a mouth on him that was positively pantie-melting. “

4 'Babygirl' Stars
I am loving this author! And by that I mean I've got a big ol' crush on her for being able to write these amazing books. I love the world that she creates and how these stories can suck me in so far it's like I'm living these wild days along with the characters.
But enough of my fangirling, and onto the book.
Savior is Paine's story, whom we met in some of the previous books, most notably as Breaker's friend and a sexy ass tattoo artist. One night while at his shop he see's a young woman running from the local gang and takes it upon himself to help her out, even though getting back on the gangs radar is the last thing he wants to do. After he makes sure no one is coming back for the girl now hold up in his shop he tries to find out why she was running from them, and why someone as rich-looking as her is even in the neighborhood.
Elsie has questions that she needs answers to, which leads her to the bad part of town and putting herself in danger. Luckily the big tattooed bad ass is there to save her, but the run-in with danger doesn't stop her from digging into dangerous things that she has no business in. Paine can see that the girl he saved isn't going to give up easily on whatever mission she's on, so he'll just have to become her protector for the time being. Getting close to the girl way out of his league was never on the agenda, but sometimes things just happen.
We didn't learn too much of Paine's past in the other books, just enough to have me very intrigued and dying to get his book. So I was jumping for joy the second this book became available and I could dig into it. I was really happy with the story we got and I loved Paine even more than I thought I would. One of the huge things I liked about him was that he wasn't like the other Heroes in this series, and yet he was kick ass in his own ways. He may not have been this gun-crazed assassin or a contract killer, but his was a quiet kind of crazy that sat right under the radar. He had this normal type job tattooing, and for the most part stayed out of the killing business, but he was far from the typical Hero, you just had to dig into his character to learn all of that.
Elsie honestly surprised me because from the description I really wasn't sure if I would like her. I did end up enjoying her character, though, because she wasn't some meek rich girl that got herself into a bad situation. She never gave up on her search for answers and that determination made her perfect for this group of characters, and, of course, me. Seeing her with Paine was such a treat and I loved how different they were with life experiences but how similar their personalities were.
Bottom line, if you haven't' read any of these books yet, what the hell is wrong with you?!? Trust me when I say that after you read one you will be hooked on this author and want everything she's ever written. Her books aren't just about two main characters, but instead about a whole cast of people that you'll be dying to know more about.

Re-read: Still love this. Paine is one of my favorites not only for the extremely sexy things he says and does but for how forthright and honest he is. No games. No guessing. You get him: flaws and all with no secrets or mysteries. It's refreshing. Elsie was hilarious and someone I see myself befriending. Again, I appreciate how Roman was incorporated into the story. Overall, so low angst yet it kept things interesting. I reaffirm my 5 stars and add that this is one of the few re-reads I've ever done and it happened to be less than a year between reads. It's my fave by the author.
Original: Elsie and Paine were not what I was expecting. I love how they came together and getting to know them as individuals. There's so much more than meets the eye but especially for Paine. Despite a very bad past, his heart is golden. He's straightforward in a way that leaves no room for doubt or games. Elsie has a big heart too and her motivation for putting herself in danger proves it. Together, besides being combustibly sexy, they are sweet, funny, and perfect for each other. Of course, as we've come to expect, there's quite a good deal of trouble and action in the plot. I was a little surprised by the antagonist but that's what was so great :) I loved the role Roman played in the story and that it wasn't made into something else. I enjoyed the glimpses into the rest of the crew and how they come together when one is in need. Safety: No OW/OM/Sharing. Condoms at first, then not. Neither are Vs. No rape. Yes to abuse.

I enjoyed this third book in the series by Jessica Gadziala. In fact, as I was reading it, there were several times I felt like I was reading a KA book!!! The hero in this story is as alpha as a male comes, and it makes him oh so yummy...LOL
I don't have time right now for a big review but I am glad that I picked up this series again. I am now going to check out The Henchmen MC series written by the same author! The first book I believe is "Reign!"

Paine was absolutely delicious! Like I mean, he was fi-i-i-i-i-ne! One of them boys who stood out like a diamond in the rough. If you ever spent time in the hood and found yourself captivated by the light-skinned brother with the light eyes... you know. So Paine and his fine self used to run the Third Street Gang and when he got out, he started his own tattoo business. And he was successful. He had an amazing family, great friends (big up Breaker and Shooter), and a pretty great life.
Then Elsie comes through, running for her life, and what's a man to do but stop to help a beautiful damsel in distress. Unfortunately, Elsie doesn't see herself as a damsel. Her rich, white privilege has afforded her the luxury of thinking she's above it all. She's virtually untouchable. That is, until she's touched and starts to realize that maybe she's a damsel after all.
I liked learning about Paine's past. I knew he was involved with the gang, but I didn't know the levels of it and I didn't understand how he got out. So now I know and I feel blessed about it. I'm really really hoping that his brother, Enzo, gets a book. I haven't gone through all of the blurbs for JG's books, so if he does have one, can someone let me know which one it is? I loved seeing Breaker and Shooter and their women in this book. I loved the brotherly love. I obviously loved Paine. Elsie... I could kinda take her or leave her. I think what's really getting to me is the heaviness and outright shoved-down-my-throat intensity of the author's push for feminism. It's turning me off of her heroines. And I have a feeling that it's only going to get worse when I get to Repo's story.
Thankfully, the heroes and the overall plot of these stories are what keeps me going and keeps me loving the heck out of these books because I don't intend on stopping!

I have a thing for bad boys. Paine, omg… he has my whole heart now. This book rocked just like I thought it would.
Elsie and Paine are opposites in every way. She is the rich Barbie girl, while Paine is the sexy, dark, tough, tattooed bad boy. She is little miss perfect. Paine is a different story. He is a tattoo artist and he plays by his own rules. He does what he wants when he wants.
Though Elsie knows that he is wrong for her, her heart just won’t listen.
When Paine finds sweet Elsie trapped in a very dangerous situation, he feels the need to protect her. But things start to emerge from their pasts that threaten to tear them apart. Paine realizes she’s the one woman who could turn him around. Staying away from Paine, Elsie's about to find out, is the only thing she's incapable of. What follows is an intense journey of love, hope, passion and acceptance.
JG’s books flow seamlessly and I found it impossible to put this down - I loved every word. Paine completely blew me away. What I loved most was the undeniable connection and chemistry that scorched between him and Elsie. It was clear to me from the beginning that they complimented each other. Elsie really rang the bell for being an incredibly strong woman. Their chemistry and love was scorching, active and caused hot flashes! I highly recommend giving this one a green light.

"4 Babygirl stars"
"Never gets old."
"Never will."
This was another great book by Jessica which I enjoyed very much. Paine was a hot alpha male and a badass, ready to protect what was his...The storyline was pretty much the same as some of her previous books but that didn't stop me from reading it. ;p
"He got what?"
"That you're mine.And what's mine is mine and he better
the fuck not cross any lines with you from here on out."
Paine was the hot alpha male who every woman need in her life...but he was sweet too, because he started to show a different side of him when he met Elsie...I just loved him and the things he was ready to try with his girl even though it was something new to him, he didn't back off!
Go Paine!!!You know what you want and you go for it!
Elsie was a good heroine too. She was one of Jessica's usual heroines strong, sweet, determined, and head over heels with her Man!She went through some stuff in the end but Paine was there to make sure everyone got what they deserved...Super Paine saved the day!
"Babygirl, when I say you're mine, I mean everything. Mouth, tits, ass, pussy. It's all mine. And in case your mind is going there, let me shut this shit down right now.That means everything I got is yours too."
This was a nice reading.I really enjoyed Paine and Elsie, they had great chemistry and I liked that there wasn't unnecessary drama between the couple like "a break up or some ex drama". They decided to be together and they stayed that way until the end...The storyline was flowing so I just enjoyed the journey of two people finding their HEA and having hot, hot moments.
Enjoy!xxx

4 stars!!!
I think a 3.5- 4 star ratings are a constant to JG novels. Paine and Elsie story was a quick cute read.

5 "Babygirl" Stars! Review posted
Well, like always, I am head over heels for another of JG's men.
Paine absolutely did it for me. He was sweet yet fierce, respectful yet kinky and he absolutely adored his family and friends. He knew how to treat a woman with respect, how to give her independence but he also made himself irresistible and impossible to not NEED/WANT/and WORSHIP.
I always knew some lucky girl would swoop in and capture his heart. He always seemed a little quiet and brooding..almost troubled by, what we learn, is a really hard past with the 3rd Street Gang.
As always, the 'h' is getting herself into a shit ton of trouble only to have a fine ass, smut talking, beautiful, 'hypnotic hazel" eyed Savior make it his mission to keep her safe.
Elsie and Paine, of course, were typical insta-love BUT it was fun, frustrating, sweet, HOT and super exciting.
With Elsa came a rich girl trying to build her own identity to get out from under her fathers iron fist and expectations. We immediately get the idea that she is searching for something super shady, criminal and possibly life threatening- as the story progresses, we see a sisters love/bond that moves her to make bad decisions, put herself in dangerous situations, and she eventually has to suck up her pride and rely on others for help.
I adored the fact that Paine was determined to put himself into her life. He made her 'feel' the connection they had and he kept popping up at the worst yet most perfect times. He was sexy, (tatted) strong, street smart and PERFECT. He respected Elsie and even though he was new to his feelings, he did not hold back and did not sugar coat anything.
I enjoyed reading a book with no bullshit between the 'H' and "h"...they fell fast and hard-and they just FELT and LOVED.
I am enamored and totally love struck with Paine. Reign, my love.... it is time to talk about a threesome LOL!
Author gifted me this baby in exchange for my honest review!
I LOVE YOU JG!

That was brilliant! A quick, easy read that totally worked for me. Two really likeable characters that are straight up with each other - no miscommunication, no lies, no BS. Both characters are adults and acted as such. Paine is by far my favourite JG hero, by miles.
This book was focussed more on their relationship rather than the outside drama which I really liked. Don't get me wrong, we still got the baddies with a couple of twists, but they didn't overwhelm the story.
All this topped off with a brilliant little epilogue that has left me wanting Roman and Enzo to get their stories told.
4.5 stars

Savior
Savages series
Book 3
By: Jessica Gadziala
I feel like I love Jessica Gadziala's Henchman, and Savages series.. And couldn’t wait get my hands on Paine book.. This was another great book by Jessica which I enjoyed very much.
Elsie is independent & confident women, & Elsie who knows her own strengths and weaknesses. She's on the hunt for her missing older sister and that is where she bumped into Paine literally
Paine straight up kind of guy, as we seen in Ms Gadziala's other book where Paine has been seen.. He was honest with Elsie about his past
Paine was a hot alpha male and a badass, ready to protect what was his...When he realized Elsie was his , He clearly stated that to her & anyone else that came close to her “Mine”
I loved the epilogue to this story…You get peek into month after everything happens, then years
"Never gets old."
"Never will."
It’s sad this Series had to end I wouldn’t mind reading about Enzo
If you have read any of Ms Gadziala's other book, you know there is no shortage of Suspense or Alpha Male.. Oh & we can’t forget the great sex screens

I loved Paine. Let me get that out there straight away. He was fabulous but then this author does write a great male character. To be fait she’s also written some good female ones as well.
Elsie I wasn’t struck on straight away. I just couldn’t wrap my head around why (particularly when she had money and could therefore hire someone) she was snooping on Third Street. She’d put her life on the line but wouldn’t tell anyone why. She was driving me nuts.
But then, firstly I appreciated the honesty between her and Paine. She grew on me after that. And secondly I discovered why she’d been snooping.
Now I have to say the story was a step too far for me. I read certain bits with my jaw dropping in disbelief.
But ultimately I enjoyed this one but it wasn’t my favourite.

I knew Paine was going to be a good character. In the other books he already seemed sexy and sweet but in this book he’s the extremely sexy guy.
I liked the fact that he is upfront with everything. He isn’t hiding anything even though he has a pretty bad past. He isn’t playing any games, it just is what it is!! The sexy alpha, protective possessive male that he is just adds to his overall appeal.
Elsie is a good character too, bright, funny and independent. I really liked her friendship with Roman and I was happy how he meshed into the story even with all the changing components in Elsie’s life.
I like some action and suspense sometimes as something different in a romance. It just gives edge to a sexy sweet story. This was a really good book, definitely one of my favorites so far in the Navesink Bank world that Jessica has created.

*4.5 THRILLING STARS*
Jesus, I'm falling more and more in love with Navesink Bank and it's flock of hot dudes the more books I read.
I skipped Shooter's story (I'm rectifying that now as we speak) and skipped ahead to Paine's story and I love him so so much!
Elsie is an awesome heroine as well.

I'm not even sure why I continued with this series after the first two being just OK reads for me. But hey, I finished it!
This was Paine's book but with how little we get of his POV in this book you really wouldn't know it.
Elsie was OK. She wasn't as annoying or unlikable as Amelia. So that's a step up from the last book.
Paine, what I got of him in this was an awesome Alpha badass. This author has no problem writing some hot alpha guys. But her females (not including Summer and Alex) have been lacking in the last three books I've read. It's disappointing after really liking Summer and Alex.
The plot in this one was just way too damn far out there. You want me to actually believe that Elsie's rich bitch sister with daddy issues has the brains and brawns to take over a gang, a lethal gang at that, who is run by the badass that is Enzo?
You want me to believe this chick, Elsie had no clue that her bestie had the feels for her? Once again...
The whole story:
I think I need a break from this author.
Maybe indefinitely.
BUT HEY!
Loads of people really have loved this series so it must just be a different strokes for different folks kind of thing. Happy reading, dolls!

I seriously cannot get enough of anything Jessica Gadziala writes! While I've loved every man she's written - Reign, Cash, Shooter, Breaker - even Wolf who was my latest favorite - I have to say that Paine has taken my heart and totally stepped in front of the others.
Why? I think Elsie summed it up perfectly....
"I liked his strange mix of old school manners, modern respect for my ability to handle myself, street smarts, alpha manliness, and well.... Sexiness. Let's face it, that was a huge factor. The man was hot. And he had a mouth on him that was positively panti-melting."
The story for me...... Perfection!

The reason this ... book got 5 stars is because hoooolllly sheeeeeeeit.
Seriously. Need a man that treats me like a woman, wants me to be independent while wanting to help take care of things, takes my sass and gives it right back, and knows how to handle me in the bedroom.
Is that to much to ask for?

Honestly I don't think Jessica can write a bad book. I loved getting to know Paine's background all the while eventually seeing how his and Elsie's future turned out.
April 25, 2016
5 MILLION BILLION STARS!!!!!!!!!!!! Jessica has done it again y'all!!!
I have an unhealthy obsession with Jessica Gadziala and her books, and Savior just gave me life! This book is in close competition (Sorry Reign, you still have a place in my heart) for my new fav! I stayed up all night because I literally could not find a good stopping point to put it down, it was so amazing!!
"Before I could even finish speaking, his hand was at the back of my neck and he was simultaneously moving into the entryway and slamming me back against the wall as his mouth crashed down on mine. There was nothing tentative of gentle about the kiss. His lips seared into mine, claiming them, branding them, guaranteeing I would feel him there for hours afterward." *SWOON* *HEAVY BREATHING* *HYPERVENTILATING*
ELSIE
Elsie is a relatively normal, 28-year old woman. She's a blonde hair, blue-eyed, rich girl from the right side of the neighborhood (complete with the asshole dad and all!). I really enjoyed Elsie because of how normal/average she was. Don't get me wrong, she's a badass, but in her own way. She independent and confident; I found it so easy to relate to her because she didn't have the "I can shoot guns, fire explosives, and fight like a man" attitude that you see in a lot of MC books. She knew her strengths and weaknesses, and she wasn't too proud or above asking for help (from a particularly hunky alpha-male). She's on the hunt for her missing older sister, which lands her (literally) in the arms of Paine.
"Oh yeah. I was definitely open to having Paine turn me bad for the night. Or week. Or the rest of our time on Earth."
PAINE
OMG. I don't even know where to begin with Paine, other than to confess my undying love for a fictional book character. Paine was upfront, brutally honest, and a no-bullshit kind of man. I loved how we get to see an huge, in depth look at Paine's past and why he is the way he is. This of course brings a strong secondary character from a previous book (). He was definitely different than the previous guys we've seen (Reign, Cash, Breaker, etc.) He didn't have to lay on the charm like Shooter or have the "overbearing alpha" quality like Wolf. Paine is a breath of fresh air. Paine and Elsie sexually chemistry was off. the. charts. He is definitely the most kinky out of all Jessica's bad boy heros and Elsie was all for it (I mean who wouldn't be with Paine??) Also, his relationship development with Elsie WAS PERFECT, it wasn't too fast or too slow! He wasn't promising marriage and 2.5 kids when they first met, but he wasn't pushing her away either. Love love love.
These two could not be more perfect for each other, and I was so happy to see Paine get his HEA. This book went 0 to 100 starting from the first page and never slowed down! Paine's story is a MUST READ!! To put it simply, this book gave me life. It's not absolutely necessary to read the previous books before this, butyou have to I strongly recommend you do.
Being with Paine, even after the worst night of my life, it felt right. It felt like it was where I was supposed to be.

Plot: 1/5
Grovel: none
Cheating: none
HEA: yes
Triggers: http://www.jessicagadziala.com/trigge...
Average score: 1.5/5
Best Lines: “God, I was so stupid. Poor Roman.” – she admits it but still leads him on
Worst Lines: so many bad ones in this book and most of them were from the clueless heroine:
"He was right; I wasn't going to call the cops. Why? I had no idea. But I wasn't.”
“Something told me that since Paine grew up with a strong mother, aunts, grandmother, and two little sisters, there was no way he was going to pull that sexism shit on me.”
Personal Review:
This was a very ‘blah’ romance between an annoying rich girl and a hot tattoo artist.
Random Ramblings:
•Don’t understand how the h could not see how much Roman was into her – hate this sort of leading-on type of ‘friendships’
•This girl never thinks before she acts and it’s not cute
•Gurl…you don’t need to keep telling me how attractive you are, I get t!!
Overall Feeling:
This is what I was thinking every time the heroine spoke:
I just wanted to slap her silly
This book was a big waste of my time

WARNING proceed with caution, spare panties and some wipes... < that is what needs to be on the front page.
Seriously though this book is fucking smoking hot!
Pain is my man, no seriously when I grow up I'm going to marry him so back the fuck of bitches.
He's not what I expected though. I expected the alpha asshole me man you women thing and although he was to a degree he was alot calmer than I expected. He's most definitely up the with best of my book boyfriends/lady spankbank men. He was such a sweetheart underneath the caveman.
Elsie was great to! Considering she's from money she was in no way snobby or stuck up. Even though she had a trust fund she worked for everything she had just so she could say she done it herself. Her determination to find her sister even though the odds were shit and circumstances were terrible she never gave up which was super admirable. She was fiesty and funny which makes for a great combination when reading.
Honestly I loved how there relationship started and how it blossomed even if that happened to be through running for your life and a few house break-Ins (he was determined) ;);) the sex was off the ferking charts as per usual and the random pop ups of old and new faces were great to read about to.
Also the epilogue melted me in to a love puddle.
All in all Jessica Gadziala you have out done yourself again lovely you just fucking rock!!

It's always amazed me that this series is getting better and better. i though Paine's story won't beat Shooter's. But Paine, my God, he's kinda man I'd like to have for myself. Alpha, sexy, know what he wants, and a keeper. Damn, Elsie's a lucky girl.
Sometimes, we need to believe in destiny. I think Elsie and Paine did, from the night Paine saved her from D and Trick, until everything's clear between them, that they're meant for each other.
I also loved how all of Jessie's heroine are some badass girls, strong and confident, and a melted worthy for the guys :)
Elsie was no less.
I'm kinda love this girl, no wonder Paine 'the slut' , suddenly stopped being slut since he found his 'match' in Elsie. Good boy :)
Let's continue this series, I won't be tired for some more !

***Received a ARC for an honest review****
First off I have to say that this book was AMAZING! All of Jessica's books are great but she's outdone herself with this story. Paine has become my new fav hero. He had so many great qualities (I'm sure it's all thanks to his mom and sisters) that there isn't a person who wouldn't love him. Elsie isn't like some of the girls we've seen before but is a perfect addition to the extreme girls we have now. This story had me feeling so many emotions and the drama wasn't like the rest. I'd recommend this book to everyone and anyone. Now of course you have to read all the others first to get the right flow.

Well, another difficult decision how to rate...
I actually liked the heroine, less hormonal mess and she would be decent.
He was ok, I guess. I didn't like his past and his present didn't convince me either.
But better as an average among romance books.
At least she wasn't a doormat.

I love this series, every book I read by Jessica just keeps me enthralled. It really is a traditional rich girl meet badass biker/tattoo artist and fall hopelessly in love story, but I love every single twist and turn the book throws out.
