Love this book! The story was well written and an amazing read!!!! I love an emotional read! There is adventure, love, lost love, found love, and at times humor and sadness. Garrett is very broken when the love of his life is kidnapped and killed with her medical unit (so he thinks). Sage fights to stay alive after being kidnapped (not killed) to return to Garrett. Once they are reunited... can they rekindle the love they had? So much time and so many changes- Read the book and enjoy the ride!

Garrett Hawkins is my man yes I said that right back off ladies he is all mine. I absolutely loved this book it was fantastic in so many ways. The plot was suspenseful and kept me on my toes however it didn't drag on. Angle Payne is phenomenal I can not wait to read the next book!

Saved by Angel Payne is much more than your steamy, hot, super hot (did I already say that?) love/lust story. There is so much pain in this story and while BDSM plays a part, the emotional pain is excruciating to read and to feel. Angel does a great job at putting us in the story and feeling what each of these characters is feeling with neither of them having the ability to express it...at least not fully.

Garrett believed his fiance dead over a year earlier. Until his unit of Special Forces was sent in to rescue some American women held hostage. Sage, Garrett's fiance was one of the women. She was alive, and he vowed then to keep her that way. He became so protective, that he was even protecting her from himself. It took her being kidnapped a second time, when he did let his guard down, that made him really open his eyes to what she really needed from him, more than his protection, his love, his dominance.

This book just didn't do it for me. I thought the premise was great but it could have been executed better. I thought it was cheap for Sage and Garrett's first time after being reunited to be in public. I couldn't connect with the characters or relate to anything they were going through. It was pretty hard for me to want to pick up this book and get through it.

Gosh, this book started off heavy! I went into this book blind.... based on my enjoyment of Angel Payne's previous work (which you should totally check out). I didn't read the blurb, the cover offers no clue as to what the book is about. I had all kinds of thoughts about where the book might be going, and I was so pleasantly surprised and shocked with where Angel took the story. Read this book, you will not be disappointed.

Amazing!!!!! Hot and steamy!!! Loved it!! Angel Payne, you are an incredible author!

This was my first book by Angel and I was very happy to discover her as an author. This novel was sexy as hell and had all the qualities I look for in a romantic suspense novel. Story was well researched on all topics discussed and addressed. Can’t wait to read mire from this author .

The Honor Bound Series is off to a fantastic start! This story of love lost then found is suspenseful, action packed, and hot, hot, hot! Garrett and Sage get a second chance at love after Garrett, who is a special forces soldier ends up saving his fiance, Sage, who he believed was dead. Sage endured a year of terror and hardship and her reunion with Garrett while joyous ends up being fraught with danger. After an emotional rollercoaster and a bumpy ride these two get their HEA and I'm looking forward to the next book in the series.

After the death of his wife over a year ago, Garrett cannot seem to function without hatred and control. When he and his Special Forces teammates attempt to save a group being sold as sex slaves, Garrett’s life comes to a standstill when one of the woman he is saving ends up being his wife Sage. When they return home and try to get back to a normal life Garrett cannot get past that she needs to be treated like glass when all Sage wants is for her husband to dominate her and take control. But when Sage is kidnapped again and Garrett has to go undercover as her buyer does he fully understand what they need as a couple. But will it be too late and the mission go south or will they finally get their HEA? With beautifully written characters and a storyline that keeps the reader on the edge of their seat, this story is a must read. I cannot wait for more in this series.

Garrett is a member of an Elite Special Forces Unit. He works hard and has no regard for his own life, not since his fiancé, Sage was kidnapped and killed on a rescue aid mission. He has been living as a shell of himself for over a year. All of that changes when he and his team are sent ona mission to save some aid workers in Thailand and he finds his fiancé alive having survived the past year.

Sage wants to move forward and get her life back. What she doesn't know is that her captors don't like that she has gotten away and put a price on her head. Garrett keeps this from her and tries to keep her safe. He draws from the darkness inside of him that has kept him going for the past year. Garretts need to dominate scares him and he is worried that if he lets Sage see the darkness that it will push her away. Will Sage get him to open up and embrace it or leave to start anew?

I am not enjoying this one, just too brutal for me. Best I stop and DNF. I was forced to include a star rating which I didn't want to do as I did not read the entire book. It was just not to my taste.

A steamy second chance story. Another great story by an amazing author!

love love this book i read her from misadventures series and cant get enough

This is the first book that I have read by author Angel Payne and I have absolutely fell in love with her writing style and this book is amazing!! It has all the emotions and feelings one could ask for in a story. It has love, loss, passion, action, and so much more. This book brings together Garret and Sage pulling together two people that have a lot of secrets and past demons that surface throughout the story. The story does have some tough topics but it is well worth the read. A sexy and dominate military man and more. This is a great beginning to a beautiful series and I cannot wait for the rest.

Sometimes a story just isn't your style and for me this was one of those. Give it a try and see if you love it, because you should never let someone else's opinion stop you from reading a book.

Saved was one of those books that I struggled to get into The story line was good and the characters were well developed, but for me there was a lot of extra content that drew away from the flow of the story.

The WILD boys of special forces are back! Angel Payne’s has brought back her WILD Boys and given them new life and new covers. There are also rumored to be new stories coming to the series, which has now been renamed Honor Bound.
Book one is the story of Garrett and Sage. Garrett has been in mourning for the past year thinking Sage is dead, and he gets the surprise of his life when he finds out that Sage is alive when he is one of the woman he rescues in Thailand on a mission. Garrett brings Sage home, but there are a couple of problems. One, Garrett denies his dominant nature, even though Sage wants him to control her in the bedroom. And her kidnapper isn’t quite shut down like she thinks he is.
This was just as great a read the second time around as it was the first time around! I loved all of the characters, and I’m totally looking forward to reading the rest of this series again!

The journey with Garrett and Sage was a long, hard fought one. But in the end everyone won. The suspense in this book kept me on my toes the whole time. I was just waiting for the ball to drop. And my did it ever. But the alphas in the book prevailed and the women showed their strength and bravery. The sexual tension throughout the story was crazy. And the ending was, wow, hot. Can’t wait to see what happens in the next book!

I started and stopped this 3 times before finally giving up. Maybe it was the slow start or even the time of the year not being conducive to a dark read, but I could not get into this book at all.

4 His Heart Is Still Beating Stars!!!

I'm a huge fan of military romances and when I read the blurb for Saved by Ms. Payne I knew I HAD to read it and I'm so glad I did! Garrett and Sage are a couple that thought they had the best of both worlds, careers they loved and their hearts connected. But then one day, Garrett's heart is torn from his body.

Garrett isn't the man he was before that fateful day and the minute I met him in this book my heart hurt for him. It's been a little over a year and he and his team are tapped to rescue a human trafficking ring in Thailand...little does he know that his heart, his Sage is one of the captives and this is when the story really takes the turn and keeps me on the edge of my seat for the rest of the book.

I immediately was cheering when they're reunited, but so much has changed for both of them in almost every way possible. Sage wants Garrett to treat her the way he used to, but little does she know that he's let a darker side of himself out and he thinks that will taint his beautiful girl. Well, this is where he's in for a surprise!

I literally devoured this book. I was cheering, fanning myself because oh my, biting my nails with the suspense and wanting to slap Garrett upside his head. There's so much action in this book too. Just because they've left Thailand behind them, there's some surprises waiting for them when they return home which puts everyone on alert.

Garrett and Sage have a lot going against them, but ultimately what will get them to their HEA is the love they still hold for each other and once they battle some demons both real and imagined the life they want for themselves can be achieved.

Because this is book one in the Honor Bound series, we meet so many secondary characters and Ms. Payne has done a phenomenal job of the details we're given which just makes my mouth water for Cuffed which is Zeke's book!
