Deadly & Ruthless, 2

When Evren Grenier stumbles upon Lowen Hayes crying at her own engagement party, her terrified tears echo deeper than mere sorrow. Without hesitation, he sweeps her away to safety.

One moment Lowen was falling to her demise, the next, she stood over her broken body. Teetering on the brink between life and death, she’s presented with the unimaginable choice: to fade into a blissful paradise or return for a chance to rewrite her story.

Caught between shadows, Evren must summon every ounce of courage to protect Lowen from a past that refuses to let her go. As their bond deepens, they discover true bravery isn’t just about fighting back but learning to trust one another. Will Evren become the guardian of her heart or will their fate be sealed by the very forces trying to tear them apart?

Be Warned: anal sex

Excerpt:

“Here, please take my handkerchief. A beautiful woman should never cry.”

Startled, she spun too quickly and lost her balance. Strong arms came around her, gently enfolding her against a muscular chest. She looked up, into brown eyes surrounded by the lushest lashes she’d ever seen. Rich chestnut hair held a slight, barely tamed curl.

She knew him. Remembered him. Evren Grenier.

In her other life, they had only brushed fingers as she accepted his handkerchief, so being in his arms was a new sensation. A spark of sensation traveled along her nerve endings and caused her heart rate to speed up, surprisingly not out of fear but with something different. Something unsettling. Whatever it was, she didn’t trust it.

“Thank you, Mr. Grenier.”

He didn’t say anything at first. Just offered her a smile as he studied her face. “You know who I am, so may I have the pleasure of knowing your name?”

“I’m Lowen Hayes. The unfortunate fiancée of Scias Mailliard.”

He frowned. “That explains why you’re crying.”

She gave him a wry smile. “Thank you for catching me, Mr. Grenier.”

“Please, call me Evren.”

“Evren,” she murmured.

He made sure she was steady on her feet before his arms slowly released her. In her alternate life, she’d written about this man. About the kindness she saw in his eyes, and how she wished he was the man she was marrying. Through the two years of her unhappiness, she’d often remembered this very night and wondered why she never had the backbone to ask him to rescue her. Now, she had her chance. She knew what would happen if she did nothing, and she refused to let history repeat itself.

darkness and tenderness coexist
Written by WMC Book Corner on 17th Nov 2025

Beth D. Carter’s “Savage Knight” is a romance set within a gritty, suspenseful world where subject matters of darkness and tenderness coexist — a hallmark of some of Carter’s body of work. Carter creates great characters. In “Savage Knight”, the hero, Evren Grenier, is a soul who struggles to merge his dark past and his current life with the possibility of including a love relationship. The heroine, Lowen Hayes, is a soul who is learning to be resilient and stand on her own after years of being treated horrifically by men. The pair’s chemistry seems authentic while they learn how to navigate the world together, discover how to be vulnerable enough to lean upon each other, and discern when to be strong enough to fight those who want to cause them harm. The story has moments that are physically raw and deeply romantic. The pacing and prose are brisk but accessible. Readers looking for an easy read of dark and protective romance, with a unique twist of fate in the beginning of the story, will find this book fits the bill. Readers should be aware, though, that Carter doesn’t shy away from sensitive to intense mature themes – such as strong language, violence, and sex. The aspects aren’t gratuitous. They are done within the context of the world building, thus adding to the “grit” of the story. I bought a copy of this book, and this is my honest review.
