Once upon a time, they took me for their own. Killian, Silas, and Maverick Tiernan. Three powerful men in their own right, and when they want something, they get it.
And what they want is me. I tried to escape once. I failed.
They caught me. They will always catch me.
This time, I’m taking back control. Of my life and of my men.
But there are people out there who want to get in our way. There’s a price on my head and men who won’t give up easily to get me.
My men promise they will never let me go. Never let anything happen to me. Yet, as powerful as they are, even they can’t fight against fate.
It seems the road to happily ever after isn’t so easy after all.

V.T. Do is the author of angsty contemporary romance books. She currently lives in Colorado. When she's not spending time working on her upcoming books, you can find her talking to herself, arguing with imaginary characters (hence the talking to herself part), daydreaming, hunting magical creatures, in search of her next caffeine fix, or reading obsessively over dirty-mouth, bad boys from steamy, smutty romance books.

The sizzling hot and action packed finale is here ♨️
This is book 3 in the Tiernan Crime Syndicate series, so make sure that the first two books are read before diving into this one. Also, Pleas read the author's TWs before diving into this one.
We continue right from where we left off in book 2 where Mila leaves the Tiernan brothers after she finds out about a treacherous secret and is utterly disappointed in them for doing what they did.
Killian, Maverick and Silas are out of their mind, wanting to find out where their little monster is hiding.
I felt this one perfectly balanced many important events - mainly the brothers making their indisputable home in Mila's heart and then finding out about hidden secrets and also action and chase that's going on.
Seeing these brutes, who don't give anyone second chances, become soft for Mila was such a freaking heartwarming thing and especially because they seem to finally understand Mila and what she needs and how to go about claiming her without hurting her feelings in any way.
I really cherished their times together of sneaking in & out of the motel, wanting to have their angel all to themselves. Then popping up randomly and yet giving her space. Making her feel safe while also giving her the freedom to choose this time.
Ahhh... The SPICE IN THIS ONE THOUGH. I mean there are not like a couple of hot ones, but this one was like a buffet of sizzling and melting times either with one of the brothers or with all of them.🌶️🌶️🔥🔥🥵 We know the brothers are filthy but now that they wholeheartedly care about Mila just makes all their intimacy and 𝗌𝖾𝗑𝗒 times all the more special and hot.
Also, experiencing individually how each of them felt, Killian with his broodiness and always serious attitude, Silas the cool and Swoony one or Maverick the leader and commanding one - I loved seeing the changed but beautiful dynamics of relationships between them and Mila.
There are major revelations in this one surrounding Mila's past that had me like 😱 and I was amped up to see how everything would work out after finding this huge secret.
There's also the continuing danger of the Heartless Saints MC and their new leader who's becoming almost impossible to get ahold of.
We also get to see the business side of things that added that extra zing to this dangerous ride and just gave us a more enlarged picture of how powerful the Tiernan brothers are in their own right but also how fearless they are.
The story keeps you engrossed with the many turns, be it a sizzling one, an emotional one or an action filled one. I'm really happy that this finale not only gave us all the needed answers but also was a very emotionally fulfilling ride because now I genuinely felt the realness and care of Killian, Maverick and Silas for Mila and not the aholes we first met in the previous books.
The epilogue was the perfect cherry on top and brought a huge smile to my face. Loved this one. ❤️❤️❤️
“I want you to look at me while I fuck you. I want you to look at me as you take possession of my fucking soul. It’s yours. I don’t fucking want it back.”
I normally enjoy this author, but this book was not my favorite. In general, I don’t like contraceptive tampering; that happened in the previous book. In this book, the heroine discovers she’s expecting and is concerned that she will have no say in the raising of her child. This is not an unfounded concern, considering the controlling behavior exhibited by her reverse harem. In this book, they track her down and infantilize her while they proceed to stamp their ownership on her. They vow to be honest, but they say straight up front that they are going to withhold information from her for her own good and so as not to upset her. The second half of the book is a little better. They share a little more information. They give her more autonomy. But the fact that autonomy is their gift is troubling. One thing I will say for the men is they are honestly not in it for the money. They feel love for her, enough that they are absolutely fine with sharing her and with not knowing which one of them is the father. And in the extended epilogues, they are all content, even if it smacks of a little Kumbaya around the campfire. I think Killian’s name is a bit on the nose, but he is the most distinctive of the three brothers, and the most entertaining. What he does to her is Over The Top, but at least he’s honest, unlike Silas who is the one who gave her the fake contraception and leads her to believe it’s real. Maverick is a little too concerned with everyone else and with business, and Silas doesn’t have much personality beyond his willingness to be duplicitous until the end of the book (and even then, it gets a little lost). In the last book they treated her very poorly; in this book they do try to do better. Here’s the breakdown: MMC/MMC/MMC/FMC- Maverick, Killian, Silas, and Mila Genre- Reverse Harem Mafia Romance (Organized Crime) Heat- 🌋🌋🌋🌋🌋 and it’s the saving grace of the book. Series? Y Safety? Obviously, there’s sharing. Triggers- violence, language, explicit erotic content with multiple partners in a closed poly reverse harem. Tropes- Brotherly Love, Captor/Captive, Red Wedding, Simply Mad About the Mob, Surprise Heiress, Surprise Pregnancy.

This is the third and final book in the Tiernan Crimes Syndicate Series, you need to read book 1&2 before this one. I seriously loved this trilogy and am sad it's over.
The book opens with the 3 men interrogating Zoe, who helped Mila escape, trying to figure out where she is. People are looking for her and she's in grave danger. They are going crazy not knowing where she is & are willing to burn down the world to find her.
They each saw her individually once they found her & Killian is now all in! There are secrets about Mila that he finds out about and why everyone is out to get her.
The four of them are finally all together but there is danger on its way as people are still trying to get to Mila and take her back from the brothers. They are super protective and possessive of her and they refuse to let her go, they will always find her and are not going to let anyone take her. 😈
As with the other books in this series, the heat and chemistry between the MCs were off the charts 🔥. The way they connected and the relationship they built was captivating and I couldn't stop reading, I just love the characters and the story!
This trilogy is full of adventure, excitement, action, drama, suspense, a ton of spice & amazing chemistry between the MCs. I highly recommend this series - make sure you don't have anything to do because you'll want to binge-read all three!!! 🖤

Thanks to Booksirens for this arc. Right off the bat there’s an obscene amount of swearing and I have usually no problems with it, just by a couple of chapters in, it’s so potent for no real reason. We follow 3 brothers POV’s in first person and also a female character who escaped these 3 men. Definitely make sure you look up the trigger warnings. This is really action packed with violence and such right from the get go and surprise pregnancy early on, for me personally I love it, it keeps me interested throughout. This is a mafia why choose romance between 3 brothers Silas, Killian and Maverick with Mila as their girl. The only thing that really was repetitive is the use of “baby”. After a while it just gets annoying. As far as the dark romance aspect of it, it’s definitely there I guess it all depends on what you consider dark. To me it wasn’t really anything too bad, just mafia men who are bad and kill and torture the other bad guys. The romance between Mila and the 3 brothers are actually not bad but Silas is obsessed with Mila on a crazy level. This is very spicy! This is the third book in the series and I went in knowing that but it wasn’t too confusing and I want to go back to the beginning if I can find the first one. At the 50% mark heats up with Mila, Killian, Silas and Maverick and they are taking her back to the Tiernan Mansion. I usually have a hard time with MC or Mafia novels because they are just written weird or I don’t connect or it doesn’t entertain me enough but this is way different. It mostly focuses on Mila and the 3 brothers though and them taking advantage of her sexually so the spice is really spicing! Highly recommend if you’re into that kind of thing though.

The final book of the series! Mila, Maverick, Killian, Silas, boy has this group been through a lot!
We see the obsession and possession ramp up in this one, which I am an absolute sucker for. What I also love is communication, and though we had some rough secrets and tampering going on with the FMC, I would have loved to see a bit more grovel and communication. Serious conversations sometimes ended up being a bit clipped, and all was forgiven (or thrown out with some steamy action) which may have happened a bit too often for my own liking.
I really felt like the ending was a bit rushed. I tried to keep up with the whole business side of things but it did become a bit droning towards the end and I found myself skimming some pages to get to the crux of the story throughout each book, and this one was no different.
If you're a fan of epilogues and future moments years out from the book start, you'll definitely be given some cute and spicy bonuses as your reward for finishing!
Overall, this wasn't one of my personal favorites than previous series I've read by V.T. Do, but you can't win them all! It's definitely not stopping me from waiting to read future series from the author!
This entire review has been hidden because of spoilers.
Trilogy is complete and V.T Do definitely wrapped this love story with a bow!!
“Don’t fuck with the woman I love,” I said softly. “The end results are all the same. It’s too bad you won’t live long enough to take my advice.”
We pick up were we left off. Mila escape with some help and now the 3 brothers are after her. During her escape she starts to see that they give her comfort & freedom which she never had. That's what has her soo confused and now she....no spoilers
Silas, Killian and Maverick are also reflecting on how they feel too. Silas loved her at first sight, then Killian and Maverick was the hardest one to crack...no spoilers. I just LOVE that we see how much the men love her and they love her in return. All 4 of them had tragic pasts but they promised each other that they will the past in past and forces on the future.
My heart broke when she smiled with ease instead of forced like she did at Heartless MC. With her dangerous Knight's they make her truely happy...
"I will protect you from all the monsters in the world. I will be the biggest, meanest of them all, just to keep you safe."
Romance, suspense, action and heartache of family values MC & Mafia.
V.T. Do is amazing and keeps the perfect amount of drama & romance. I’ve read all the books available that V.T. Do has written and this series is good but it could’ve been better. It seemed like the characters went from sleeping to messing around to something happening back to sleeping. I felt as though there was barely any backstory and dialogue between killian, maverick, silas, and mila except for when they has one on one time but that was mainly just “sex”.This book is more realistic so I give it 4/5 but I just don’t feel that connection between Mila and Killian and I know V.T. Do can do better. I would recommend this book to readers that like a slow burner romance with a little bit of darkness! But if you want something more fast paced and 5 star I would recommend the Men Of Wrath Series or King’s Men MC, It’s thrilling and exciting !!.

V.T. Do’s latest book shows her skill in blending drama and romance. As a big fan of her work, I found this series interesting but not quite as strong as her earlier books. The story kept my attention, but the pattern of characters moving from intimate moments to conflicts felt repetitive. I missed having more backstory and meaningful conversations between Killian, Maverick, Silas, and Mila, as their interactions often just focused on sex.
However, the book does a good job of showing how Mila’s relationship with the Tiernan brothers develops over time. The slow-burn romance with a dark edge will appeal to readers who enjoy that style. The ending was satisfying, showing how Mila and the brothers look forward to their future together.
This book, like the previous ones, includes dark themes, so make sure to check content warnings if you’re concerned about that. Even though I hoped for a bit more depth, I enjoyed the trilogy and recommend it to those who like a gradual romance with a touch of darkness.
In Savage Reign, the heart-pounding third book in The Tiernan Crimes Syndicate series by V.T. Do, the stakes are higher than ever. Killian, Silas, and Maverick Tiernan are ruthless, powerful, and utterly obsessed with one thing—her. She tried to escape once and failed, but this time, she's determined to take control, not just of her life, but of the men who refuse to let her go. With enemies lurking, a bounty on her head, and danger around every corner, love has never been more dangerous or irresistible. Can she survive long enough to claim her happily ever after?
If you love dark romance with intense passion, power, and a woman who refuses to back down, Savage Reign is your next must-read!
V T Do starts the 3rd book from where the 2nd ended- Mila ran and her men are struggling. V T ‘s books are among my favorites because the characters are always interesting, their dialogue is very well written, and the spice is ohh so delightfully naughty and dirty. Mila faces her demons and insecurities, but she’s extremely fierce when her guys are threatened. Maverick, Killian, and Silas treat her like she’s their Queen: protective, passionate, and loving with some very imaginative intimacy. I love the banter, the support, and their relationship as it deepens. They all are scarred emotionally and physically by people who should have loved and protected them. Mila and her family are breaking the cycle and living their best life. I loved the series- so so good!!!.

I loved this addition to the series. At first, I was a bit annoyed with and worried for the mfc, I was sure the enemies would get to her. Then I was annoyed she asked for honesty from the guys while keeping her own secrets and feeling like she was entitled to do so. I understood but didn't like some of her decisions. I like the route the book went and the progression of the relationships with her and the guys. Things got down to the wire at the end, and I thought it could have another addition, but things wrapped up pretty nicely. My favorite was the epilogues. Silas's pov at the hospital was EVERYTHING! I especially loved the extended epilogues, so we got answers to what their futures looked like. It was an awesome way to end the series. Can't wait to see what's next from this author I received an advance review copy for free, and I am leaving this review voluntarily.
This is book 3 of the Tiernan crime syndicate. Please read the other 2 to follow the story completely.
Mila and her three men: Killian, Maverick, and Silas, are faced with danger when a member of Mila’s deceased father’s MC comes after her. He was promised her hand in marriage and he intends to see it through. But her men will stop at nothing to keep her and their unborn baby safe.
I love the different dynamics between Mila and her men. They all complete each other without realizing what was missing. Mila is the glue that holds the brothers together. When danger follows them to their wedding, an informant to the MC is found within the syndicate. To what lengths will they go through to protect what is theirs?
I would definitely recommend this series!.

Savage Reign is the final book to the Tiernan Crime Syndicate series. I absolutely love this series and enjoyed the growth among each character.
Mila. Silas. Maverick. Killian.
With the last book, Mila ended up running from the three men. In Savage Reign we have Mila hiding and the three doing everything to find her. All the while, Mila never truly understood how good of a life she had with her three men until she is constantly looking over her shoulder in fear. Add in the new realization that she is newly pregnant and carrying one of their children.
I adored their why choose family dynamic. Mila finally gets a good life with her children and their daddies.
These four I will miss, but I am glad how it ended.
I won't lie, I struggled a little with this book...I'm not a big reader of first person POVs, that's just a personal preference and not a reflection of the authors writing style. I did however enjoy the the character exploration and dark romance elements enough to stay hooked until the end.
The steamy scenes are fairly 🌶🌶🌶, they're smoothing integrated into the storyline with the darker elements of organized crime/mafia setting.
Its a solid addition to the trilogy, and definitely worth a read if you're into spicy, dark romance novels with a possessive male cast, THIS BOOK IS FOR YOU!!
Just be sure to read the content/trigger warning before jumping in!
Dnf at 89%. I tried to push through but I can’t. I never thought I’d say this but there is too much s*x in this book. What little plot there is, is horribly overshadowed by the smut. I love smutty books but only when they are done well. I love these characters and if I’m being honest, this series could have been cut down to one book if the smut didn’t happen every other page. Also the author has some weird thing with the word “wetness” she uses it in almost every spicy scene which is a bit of a turn off. And she uses it in reference to bløød anytime it’s mentioned. I also feel as though the writing has gone down hill. It seems rushed. The first book was the best. After that it’s gotten bad.
Ok so I loved this series but I did have some issues. First of all the time line it’s like all of a sudden time stood still. It’s was like this third book time stood still. Don’t get me wrong the book was great. But it just didn’t make sense. The only other thing I have sort of an issue with is I normally love sex scenes but there were so many in this book it was almost in determinant to the story line of the book. I could have used a little more story and a little less sexy time. And that’s an odd thing to say for me. I did like the extended epilogue. The characters and story was great.

This series was great if not a little too long. This definitely would have been better as a duet or a very long standalone. The plot did not have enough in it too carry three books. That being said great story. I loved who Mila was and how she actually had a personality not another boring carbon copy heroine. Each of the guys had their own personality and my favorite thing was that they each had a cute unique nickname for her. I loved the series and would recommend if you like spicy reverse harems with captivity like I do this series is for you!
I received an advance review copy for free, and I am leaving this review voluntarily.
Although I am not really a fan of reverse harem stories, I still read this series on recommendation. The chemistry and feelings between Mila and her men were great, each of them has a different bond and together they complement each other and everyone gets what he and she wants. When they think everything is going the way they want and they take the step towards marriage, there is a danger and they have a mole in their midst. How far will they go to protect and keep what is theirs? Highly recommended to read.

Excellent Conclusion!! This book did not disappoint. The author does an excellent job wrapping things up and giving Mila and her men a perfect and satisfying ending!
There was action, danger, lots of spice, and so many emotions. We also got a few revelations.
I loved Mila. While we do see some growth in her character, she also remained true to herself. I loved Maverick, Killian, and Silas more after this book. They finally acknowledge and admit their feelings for Mila. They prove they will do anything for her. The steam between them was off the charts for sure. We also see the love between too. I loved it!!
Mila escapes from Maverick, Silas, and Killian and they are going crazy without her. When they find her will they let her choose or just take her. Mila realizes that she misses them and has a secret she will have to tell them. Danger is coming for her and the brothers from all sides. Can they convince her to go home and keep her safe? Great characters and storyline Highly recommended Amazing Book. I love Mila, Maverick, Killian, and Silas and their dynamic and character development. Great supporting characters. This book has action and suspense and the spice is so good. I love this book and series. I can’t wait to see what’s next
If there was an ending for this series that I hoped for, VT Do definitely supplied it and in spades.
These 4 were so amazing together. I couldn't get enough of them. Each of the guys were so lovely in their own individual way and yet when they were with Mila it just amped up and it was an enjoyable journey for each and as a group.
There was so much happening and then throw in the crazy amazing adult time, wow it seriously was a fun filled ride and one I didn't want to end but I am happy with the way it ended.
I received an advance review copy for free, and I am leaving this review voluntarily.
The end of Mila and the Tiernan brothers’ story did not disappoint for me. I enjoyed how the dynamic between Mila and the brothers shifted and evolved as the story progressed. Loved seeing glimpses into their future as they grew their family! As with the previous two books, this book contains dark content, so check those content/trigger warnings before reading, but I enjoyed the journey this book (and the whole trilogy) took me on.
*I received an arc for this book and am voluntarily leaving an honest review :)*
I have thoroughly enjoyed the Tiernan Brothers series. Mila, Sila, Maverick and Killian are absolutely explosive and their story is completely consuming. They've come a long way from their beginning and now they've found true happiness and peace. The things these guys they've been through in getting back what was rightfully theirs to begin with is huge and then finding Mila along the way made for a great, intense, intriguing story that at times was so emotional it was palpable. All the work led to their HEA and that made it all worthwhile. What a fantastic ending to this fantastic series!
What an amazing end to the series. These men are intense though with that comes loyalty to their woman, obsessive protectiveness and a love so deep it would be easy to drown in it. It's rough, harsh and shocking at times but the author has managed to put everything together in such a way you need that side to match with the emotions flowing through the characters. Love it and loved all three books. Satisfied with the ending as it wrapped the book up just right. I received an advance review copy for free, and I am leaving this review voluntarily.
I really enjoyed this series overall! This is a new author to me and I would definitely read any future books. I really liked the relationships Mila had with each brother and how they developed and grew. The way they each worshipped her in their own special way really helped to make up for how they actually got to where they were. I appreciated how Mila started to see how she cared for and needed them. I still cannot figure out which brother is my favorite and no one can make me choose! Haha
There was some repetition in the writing that I think could be improved upon but this was a solid 4 stars for me!
Ok, so. . . . . . I manged to get to chapter 18, after zoning out a couple of times. With 5 hours still to go, I can't do it and more!!! I just found myself becoming more frustrated the more I read. These guys have learned nothing! NOTHING!! Even though Mila had removed the implanted chip, and run away, they still didn't get that she didn't want what they were demanding they were 'giving' her. Nothing in life is free! These three have just become pigs!! And Mila has become TSTL!
So, here I am giving up and not reading any more, and not regretting it one little bit!!!
I enjoyed reading this book. Once I started reading Savage Reign, I didn't want to put it down. I wanted to keep reading so I could see what was going to happen next. The characters are great and the storyline hooked me from the start. I don't want to spoil this book for anyone, so I won't go into details. Please read the book blurb for some information about the book. I recommend reading this book! I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.

Savage Reign (Book 3 of Tiernan Crime Syndicate) by VT Do is a dark mafia romance novel. This is the third and final and I admit it’s bitter sweet. I really enjoyed this series but I was so ready to read this book. Definitely read the books prior because this this starts up right where they left off.
Mila is gone after hearing a devastating secret about what they did. Silas, Maverick and Killian are upset. They will veo anything to get her back. There is a lot action, heated chemistry, romance, love, and more.
I loved this book and series. It is one I will be reading again!
The third and final book in the series. You must read Savage Cravings and Savage Hearts first. Check the trigger warnings before reading. I loved this series and was a little sad for it to end but this was the perfect conclusion to a great series. This begins where Savage Hearts left off. Mila escaped being held captive by the boys but really they were her safety. These men will stop at nothing to get her back. This book is full of action and the slow burn spice 🤌🏼 I really enjoyed the epilogues! I feel it really helped bring it full circle. Silas really had my heart.
I didn’t see how this series could get any better and then this book landed in my kindle. Wow! You have to combine the intensity of the previous 2 books to get anywhere near what this last book is like. I was practically cheering out loud in certain places, the church for example. Don’t worry though, this book has plenty of steam and more than enough moments to cause worry and concern over our favourite men. Absolutely loved this book and don’t know what to do with myself now it’s over.
