I am absolutely obsessed with all of Chantal Fernando's MC series and was so excited to jump on Saint. Saint and Sky were sweet and sexy. I loved how they reconnected and how devoted Saint and the rest of the Knight MC was to Sky.

While I loved how Sky and Saint reconnected I did wish that Sky was a tad but sassier. She always seemed quick to cry and be upset vs standing her own ground. All in all this was a fantastic start to a new series and I look forward to more.

I would like to thank Netgalley and the publisher for an advanced copy of this book for an honest review. 4 stars! ~Ratula

I am pretty much over the MC genre, however there are 2 authors that I will still read their MC books as they are released - and Chantal Fernando is one of them.

This is the first of the Knights of Fury MC series, and one that I am going to enjoy as much as the previous series.

Skylar and Saint's story is full of love, heartache, and a healthy dose of batsh!t craziness! Oy, there are some people in this book who need to take a good, hard look at themselves and their actions!

I love that we see the softer side of the bikers, not just the violence and bloodshed that can come with them. I loved watching Sky and Saint fall in love, go through the trial and tribulations that come with it.

There are a few characters that I really need to read their stories, and I hope that I don't have to wait too long to get more.

I fell for Saint from the beginning. He had my heart from the first scene. I loved this book it was hot, sexy and sweet. I needed a cold drink after some of these scenes.

Skylar had lived with her step-dad and mom and the Knights of Fury until she was sixteen, until one day her mom took her away and she never saw or heard from them again.
It’s years later and Skylar is now an adult, she rarely see’s her mom now, then one day she receives a letter from Saint, a guy she had a crazy crush on who’s now in prison. Skylar and Saint were pretty good friends, he was older than her but she didn’t care, just being close was good enough....until she left, why did they let her mom take her?
I did enjoy Saint. I felt the story a little rushed at times and under developed. The chemistry between them was a little..so-so..too. A fairly good read!

Saint is a surprise MC read that plays with the readers emotions and holds onto their heart. While I thought I was getting a gritty, dark MC romance what I really got was a sweet, family drama revolving around an MC.

When I was reading this story (and I will be honest I don't like emotional stories), I was a bit upset as the kindness, caring, heart and love the characters in this book had for each other. I tend to gravitate towards the darker MC stories with no emotions and a lot of dark violence. However, after finishing and stepping back for a few days I am really happy that I had the chance to read this book and want more from this world… emotions and all.

I thought the main character, Skylar was too childish and selfish at times and she was my biggest disappointment. After refection I realized that she is a product of her upbringing and cut her some slack. Now Saint on the other hand, was a heartfelt man who found love and held on. He was strong and bold but was nothing but caring and loving. Such a different man then I am used to liking.

As I stated earlier, this book (to me at least) was more of a family drama with some MC thrown in. There was no really grit or darkness. I did get so attached to a few characters that I did cry at one point. I loved the way the story developed and grew and the ending both gutted me and had me swooning slightly.
If I had one complaint about this story, it would be that I felt there were some gaps that the author could have filled in with more details. It felt rushed in places where I needed a bit more development to fully connect with the characters. I would have liked more of Saint and Skylar in their childhood relationship and more in the prison letters, if I am to be specific.

Overall I am happy to have read this story and found my self a new author. I look forward to more from this world and can't wait to see who gets a story next. I received an ARC via NetGallery and I am leaving an honest review.

Skylar lived with the Knights of Fury until she was sixteen and then one day her mom took her and she had not seen them again. Then one day she comes home from work to find a letter from prison from Saint, at one point Saint and Skylar were friends and then they weren't. This was an interesting story about a mother nobody would want, a girl that could have turned out worse because of her but somewhere she found the strength to believe in herself. I don't want to spoil this story too much but it's about Skylar being reunited with her biker family and all that stuff that goes on with the biker world. I would have loved it a bit more if we could have had Saint's POV and I was really sad about Hammer. Otherwise this story kept me interested to the very end

3.5 stars. A good, low angst MC read. Skylar has had a crush on Saint for as long as she can remember and after five years apart, will time make a difference? Throw in a few twists and turns that keeps you hooked until the end.

**4.5 Stars**

This book was exactly what I was hoping for and expecting after reading some of the author's other work and I was definitely not disappointed. The story sucked me in from the start and I did not want to put the book down.

I enjoyed all of the characters, especially Saint and Sky and Hammer. I found the premise of the story to be engaging, unique and interesting. I absolutely despised Sky's mother, though I know that was 100% part of the story. I cannot wait to read more in this series. I really enjoyed these characters!!!

I received an arc copy of this book from NetGalley for my honest review. This is not your typical gritty MC romance. Young Skylar’s life is rough with no dad, a bunch of brothers and a mother who just doesn’t understand her and at times seems disinterested in her but that’s okay because she has Hammer who’s like a dad and all his MC brothers. This is how she meets Saint who becomes her friend and confidant but those feelings change as she grows. Unfortunately Skylar’s crazy mom ruins everything and separates her from all her MC friends and family. Fast forward a few years and Skylar receives a pen pal letter from Saint via the local prison and their relationship rekindles. I must stress that NOTHING physical happens between Skylar and Saint when she was young and there age gap is not very big, but their relationship does grow physical once they meet again. There is a little bit of a mystery about Skylar and why her mom is so crazy and there is a bit of heat with Saint but nothing too hot. This was a nice start to a new series especially if you find a hardcore MC story a bit intimidating but I just wish Skylar was a little bit stronger as she does tend to give in a lot. Overall a great read. 4.5 stars

I tend to enjoy this author and I did with this new series too. We meet Sky who was raised with bikers (The Knights) til the age of 16, when her mother and I seriously name that woman that lightly forcibly takes her away from the father that she has always known and loved and also leaving her heart behind with Saint. Saint was 5 years older than Sky and she was also the Presidents daughter so he knew that he could not go there and would not go there but he knew that he had a connection to her. Years later when Sky receives a letter from Saint who is in prison she questions everything that she knew because these people that claimed they loved her had abandoned her and she sets out to find out the truth. My only issue is that I felt that her mom got away scott free.

Emotional and suspenseful, Saint shows that true love can weather any storm. I’ve never read a book by Chantal Fernando before, but when NetGalley offered me an ARC in exchange for an honest review, I was excited to give the book a try based on the cover and description. I wasn’t sure what to expect, but it turns out that Saint isn’t the typical romance novel - it’s not so much about finding love as it is about keeping it.

The story follows Skylar, the stepdaughter of an MC president who meets Saint when she is a teenager and develops a crush. Saint is 5 years older, so it wasn’t appropriate for them to date at that time, but Skylar always secretly hoped that he harbored feelings for her as well. Life gets in the way of anything happening between them, but when Skylar receives a letter from Saint from prison 5 years later, it reawakens all of her feelings for him. When they meet in person again, Saint no longer sees Skylar as a girl, and things change between them immediately. But dating an MC member comes with its own complications, and Skylar has to come to terms with the fact that though his nickname is Saint, that doesn’t mean he is one.

I enjoyed the writing style quite a bit - the story moves quickly and the relationship is totally believeable. Both characters are likeable, though certainly with their own flaws. The depth of emotion between them was great because they already had an established connection in the past - though I would’ve liked a little more of the wooing period. It doesn’t take long for Skylar and Saint to form a relationship; the bulk of the book is spent making sure they can stay together as issues arise. I also would’ve loved Saint’s perspective on things - though they do have plenty of conversations in the book, it’s told 100% from Skylar’s point of view so it’s tough to get a read on Saint. Overall it’s a solid book, though perhaps heavier and more emotional than what I was anticipating.

A Saint amongst the brothers? 😍

Skylar’s mom marries a man who is the Prez of the Knights of Fury MC when she is a young girl. Being the youngest of six and the only girl, Hammer showers her with attention. There is one other man amongst the brothers that she feels a strong connection to and that is Saint, but because she’s a teenager she accepts her crush might not go anywhere, especially when she sees all the women gravitate towards him😢 When she’s sixteen something goes wrong and her mother demands that they leave the clubhouse. She doesn’t want to leave and doesn’t feel as though she had a choice.

Five years later Sky receives a letter from Saint, while he’s in prison and it puts her on a path to finding out what happened when she was sixteen and to take control of her future💕 Saint has never forgotten Sky and when he writes to her, never expects the outcome it could have had❣️

I absolutely loved this first story in the series and I’m super excited for Renegade’s story next. A big thank you to Chantal, Netgalley and the published for my advanced copy for which I leave my honest review 😁

The book Saint, shows us once again that it takes more than just DNA to make a good parent. Skylar's mom is one of the worst parent's I've seen in a long time. I was so happy when Saint and Skylar finally got together. There's was truly a sweet love story.

This is the first book in a new series call the Knights of fury MC, this is Saint and Sky book, Sky is an Mc princess when she gets a letter from Saint who was her first kiss and her childhood everything, from prison ! It draws her back into the knights of fury Mc! Each letter she gets from her prison penpal has her heart racing! Which is nothing compared to how she feels when Saint surprises her in person as a free man! Sky was only a kid last time Saint saw her but the connection between the two is just off the charts! Saint is the type of man who would do anything to protect his woman and now that sky world is crashing down around her that’s exactly what she’s going to need! This book was good I would say it’s not my favorite but it was still a good read, I’ll continue on with this series I think it’s going to be a good series! Thank you Netgalley and the publishers for sharing this book with me!

Saint is the start to Chantal Fernando's brand new series, Knights of Fury MC and already has me super excited for more. Ms. Fernando set up the series so well during the course of this book with all of the hints about what's to come for the other MC members. This author writes some of my favorite MC stories, and I already know that this series will quickly become a favorite as well.

Saint and Skylar had an adorable relationship. I really enjoyed getting to see them find each other again when they were both at a point in their lives that they could actually be together. The conflict in the story didn't take over the entire book and instead left plenty of room to focus on Saint and Skylar reconnecting. I loved that we got to see them grow so much as a couple, while also learning about them as individuals.

There was a mix of sweet moments, with some heart pounding ones that involved the whole MC. It was intriguing from the very beginning and I couldn't believe the direction that it took. It was honestly shocking to me, which isn't something I can say a lot about book, and I loved that about it. I'll be impatiently waiting for the next book now, I can't wait to see what's going to happen next but I know it's going to be brilliant.

I really liked this book. Chantal Fernando writes really good MC romance. Great characters that you instantly get attached to, great storylines and swoon worthy romance. I think this is a very solid start to what I hope is a new MC series.

This was not my favorite of my MC books. It had a very heavy tone to it and that's what I read to escape.

I received this ARC in exchange for an honest review.
