Pamela is not like most girls. She hasn’t been waiting excitedly for her eighteenth birthday. She’s been dreading it with every fiber in her being, trying to figure a way out.
As the princess of the Donkey Punchers MC, eighteen does not include freedom. Instead, it’s the exact opposite. It’s an unimaginable hell.
Jaguar doesn’t know much, but he knows one thing, and he knows it well—betrayal. He’s been a traitor to the only family he’s ever truly had, and he hates himself for it.
He cannot be the man who deserves to breathe, let alone be welcomed back to the Savage Beast MC clubhouse. If he’s ever going to atone for his actions, he knows that he has to do something huge to help his brothers.
Things aren’t exactly as they seem. A man on the brink of death. Destruction and war on the horizon. Relationships tested, unsure if they will hold the weight of the world around them.
Two people scared of the uncertain future, yet when they collide, one caged bird is finally set free, and the other discovers that being bound is exactly where he needs to be.
Hayley Faiman was born and raised in the Central Valley of California. She and her husband met when they were still in High School. They were married a few years later. They lived in Oregon while her husband was in the US Coast Guard. After living in Hill Country, Texas, for eight years and three years in East Texas, they now call North Carolina home and spend their time with their two teenage sons at all their events, screaming from the stands as they swim their hearts out!
Pamela, Sunny, or Pammy, and let's not forget jailbait. She was called all those names was saved by Dylan also known as Jaguar. I don't mind nicknames just stay with one not hope around to all of them because than you have all the other characters names on top of them.
Anyway we get to watch Jaguar get his happiness with Pamela and get his trust back from the brothers. I am truly disappointed with the Mamba and Gator story. Maria up and leaves and book they find a waitress and have a HEA? Where were the emotions??
This one was a punch to the chest kind of read. The type of MC Storytelling I love because it’s not easy. Pamela is not your average 18 year old and I found her quiet strength impressive. Jaguar’s redemption has intrigued me since he first wronged his brothers. I loved how this one played out and the epilogue was one of my favourites.
If you can’t handle a dark and dirty MC book this isn’t for you but for those of us who love them this is an awesome story. Jaguar did some unspeakable things in his club The Savage Beast MC and is now looking for redemption. He infiltrates a rival club the Donkey Punchers MC and he can’t believe what he finds there. They are nothing like the Savage Beasts. What they do to their daughters when they turn 18 is unthinkable so being the daughter of Riot the Donkey Punchers club President she is desperately trying to get away from them before that fated birthday.
Jaguar knows he too old for her but there is a definitely chemistry between them and he is bound and determined to bring her back to the Savage Beasts with him. Her father may not be willing to let her go. This was an intense, amazing read that I highly recommend.
This story took you on one heck of a rollercoaster, it was emotional so much so your heart hurt for both Jaguar and Pamela and you felt their pain, and it went straight to the heart. Jaguar came from a crappy home life filled will abuse that left him beaten & broken and unworthy and as the story progresses it was evident that Jag never dealt with his pain because it was constantly effecting him in everyday life which was tied to his self-worth. We understood his feelings and even the guilt he felt betraying Eagle and the brothers but, no matter the betrayal, we felt the brothers deep down understood where Jag was coming from and where it leads him to take the path he took. Even though the entire situation which lead to Jaguar's questionable loyalties, and other parties involved stepped up to the plate taking their share of the blame in the drama surrounding Jaguar, it will be one uphill battle for all to heal from, and we will wait to see if a certain someone survives at all...
Pamela was a character who grew up fast no matter her age she was older in mind and spirit to survive the hell she did growing up. Pamela's father was an absolute monster and so was the MC club she was born into all those men monsters to the core it's a wonder how she survived it all. We really enjoyed seeing her blossom at the Savage Beast MC Club and how the old ladies took her under their wing. She had many firsts turning just turning 18 that she never had before, and that just broke your heart.
This ride was filled with tons of drama, forgiveness, love healing, karma and justice for one an all. The story was so emotional that it was impossible not to effect the reader. What's wrong with these men can't seem to fall in love with women their own age? Seems impossible for the men of this club but, they find their soulmates each and every time. This was one heck of a ride, we loved it! Talk about surprises? This one had several ! Hot and intense and tons of hot and sexy scenes tons of drama and as always the story had amazing characters. Mamba and Gator hoping for a happening ending for you both! Perfect ending to this emotional tale ...
FINALLY getting Jaguar’s story! After everything that has happened with Jaguar in previous books, I was so excited to not only get his side of the story after everything that went down, but also see him find his HEA, and Hayley did not disappoint! Infiltrating a rival club as a way to help his MC after all he had done, Jaguar is disgusted to see how they are running things, even more so after finding out what the president and all the members do to their daughters when they turn eighteen. Pamela is the president’s daughter and is desperate to get out of what is coming to her as her birthday looms ahead. Thankfully, Jaguar feels a pull to Pamela that he can’t explain and works with his MC to not only take down the rival club but also get Pamela to safety. With her father being one of the only members to get away, Pamela is taken to Jaguar’s club to keep her safe while they hunt him down, but she also doesn’t know how their club operates and assumes she will suffer the same fate she was intended. Latching onto Jaguar because he saved her, she fights for his life when she finds out how he betrayed his club, and between the other women in the club and Pamela, his life is spared, and he starts to work on his repayment to the club. There are some huge twists that I never saw coming in this book involving Pamela and one of the club girls, but it was in true Hayley fashion, and I expect nothing less from the quality of books she provides. I was so happy to get to know Jaguar better in this book and for him to get his HEA with Pamela! I voluntarily read and reviewed an Advance Reader Copy of this book.
meh, the only good thing about this one is that finally there is no cheating but there is a random scene where a girl hits on him and he keeps talking to her even if the h is in the same room, then he tells to another brother that he almost hit that ass... well thanks author for this little unnecessary scene...if he wouldn't say that to the other guy i wouldn't be upset by it because he was just talking not touching or anything he wasn't even flirting so that phrase to the other guy came out of nowhere.
Other than that basically i didn't read a lot of books in this series because there was cheating or other stuffs i hate, but i did read Della's book , this H's ex, now i don't remember exactly what he did to her but i do remember how much i hated her ANYWAY i hated how in this whole book there is all this Della's stuff, then Pinkie stuff...the fact that he slept with that one in the past doesn't change my disgust , because then we find out who she is for the h.
There is basically no plot here, no build up relationship NOTHING!
We have him saving her from rape, getting her in his clubhouse, then he kept pushing her away mind you her being completely in love with her savior , they don't connect, LOL, and when they finally are together they love each other etc, AGAIN with no build up , NOTHING , then he goes in 2 runs and that it the whole freaking book :))) there is no reasons or explanation how he gets over Della, there are no reasons for them to be so hooked in another. I wanted to like them, but there is nothing to like, i ended up not caring at all about this couple. I did really well in skipping all this books in this series if it is like this LOL.
This entire review has been hidden because of spoilers.
I loved Jaguar. I said it. Redemption stories are my favourite and this one made me happy. I liked how there can be a moving on from what was to what is and acceptance and second chances. It was really well written in that regard and came across similarly to her other series of redemption arcs. There's even a easily faithful hero in this one which I was ready for. I liked the cheating books but I was getting tired of the narrative of being unable to be faithful.
The one twist was predictable but still nice as a wrap up. It did make an early scene kind of squiggy but 🤷.
Generally I'm not into the giant age gaps honestly, especially when the heroines are barely adults at all, but I just ignored that part.
The only thing I didn't really get into was a lot of the side things going on. I'm assuming it's to open potential for other books but because this was the end of the series it just got frustrating because there were a TON of story starts in this book and I kind of hated the one alluded to with Bones.
I would love a skulls series if the author is going to make it honest with kink and consent, but that's my jam so I am here for it.
I don't tend to really enjoy this authors shorts at the end of books just cause they are always just crazy rushed super short stories that don't really offer any emotional satisfaction. This one was okay but man, I would have liked a m/m story with some depth.
Overall this series was up and down for me but I liked this wrap up!
This was...an ok read. Not really that good, but not bad either. I just... wasn't enthusiastic about it, I guess. Jaguar was more of a pussy most of the time. I didn't like him much. Hated every single time he pulled back from Pamela. It was annoying AF. After the 3rd time I was fed up with his bullshit. 2.5 stars for me.
The Heartfelt, Emotional Conclusion to This Generation of Savage Beasts...
I knew Jaguar's book was going to be the most emotional story of the entire series. His ongoing tale of uncontrollable rage, desperation, and betrayal has run bone deep throughout most of the Savage Beast saga. What I didn't expect however was the almost unnervingly quiet approach this installment would take, as here Hailey Faiman digs deeper than ever before, giving us an enormously introspective battle not only for Jaguar's life, but also his very soul, and it is simply beautiful.
I have written often how this series has captured my soul, often stealing my breath with its unapologetic darkness, how it depicts a club steeped in danger in often uncomfortably brutal terms. Jaguar and Pamela’s tale, with he being the embattled traitor desperate to reclaim his place within the MC that means so very much to him, and Pamela, the seventeen year old daughter of Donkey Puncher’s Prez Riot, a young women abused from birth, silently waiting her horrific club determined fate the day she turns eighteen, is in my opinion the best representation of the often mundane yet all-consuming violence that envelops the Savage Beast’s world. And with their tale, Faiman uses her last installment of this series, “Uncage Me”, as an almost allegory of sorts of how each man within this club ends up viewing life in general. A fitting stance for a series that has been far more emotionally sophisticated and real than most others I've come across.
Here, Jaguar fights a much greater battle than any of his brother’s before him (although Mountain comes very, very close). Here Jaguar fights a far more sinister demon than anything outside the club can throw at him, himself. And through his need to show his brother’s he’s changed, his need to save Pamela from her predestined fate, you will remain riveted, glued to the edge of your seat with each passing page as you witness this man struggle with his insecurities, his self-worth, his past, his present, and the uncertainty of his future.
It is a stunning journey that is as stomach churning as it is haunting. A heartbreaking look at two people so damaged by the atrocities done to them in childhood it imbues them with fear, doubt, and an overabundance of emotional triggers that sabotage their lives day in and day out preventing them from really living, especially Jaguar.
It is also extraordinary in its viciousness and not at all for the easily offended or faint of heart as it contains elements of gang rape, sexual assault, child abuse, murder, and other themes some may find deeply unsettling. However, none of it is glorified or unimportant to the larger story being told and I promise you it is worth every, single, bit, as the literary reward is worth every ounce of horror and heartbreak.
However I do have to say the following, as much as I truly loved this story I have one huge criticism, it doesn’t actually come to a full and complete conclusion, and falls far short of the ending I was truly hoping for, for this series (and for Jaguar). Here you go through thirty-six chapters of deep uncertainty, winding through every dip and climb of this couple’s pain and emotional journey of survival, personal growth, and redemption. As such, as the last chapter comes to a close you expect to see things come full circle, expect conclusions for Jaguar, not only with the club, but with many of the little items spread throughout the book with him and Pammy. For example, does he get accepted back into the MC fold as a full voting member? Does he get to brand Pamela and afford her the official title of “Old Lady”? Does Pamela get to pursue all of the little life things she talks about at the beginning and middle of the book with Dragon? It’s all left out! Even seemingly inconsequential things like what name she chooses, is all left out despite many of them being rather riveting and substantial plot points. Instead we are launched into an epilogue ten years into the future, that while sweet and infers a happy ending for them both, doesn’t actually answer many of the larger questions burned into my brain throughout the entire series. Instead the epilogue feels more like a set-up for a next generation view of the Savage Beasts.
And while I would be absolutely thrilled to read a new series about all the little biker babies growing up and taking over, I really wanted to leave this one with a more holistic feeling of completeness instead of the “stay tuned” feeling I actually got.
If you have triggers then the Prologue may be a little tough for you.
Jaguar is trying to make up for a past mistake. Pamela doesn’t want the life she currently has. Eagle has a voice here because his story is the start of Jaguar’s. You may want to read. First for a better understanding of how Jaguar got to where he is.
These men may not do honorable things but some of their decisions may have you rethinking that. The men of the Savage Beasts rule together even though there is a president. Sometimes their rulings can be tough. Something else to be mindful of is that these men sometimes have relationships with someone who may be much younger than they are. I didn’t see that being an issue but it’s what your personal preference is - this is pure fiction after all. Most of it for me though was the great way that our author builds tension and suspense.
I think that this has to be one of the darker reads that I’ve read of Ms. Faiman’s. She still gives us a hero to save the damsel in distress but his opponent seems to be pure evil. Plus our hero seems to have a conscience when it comes to said damsel. How she shows the difference between the two MC groups kept me turning the page. And what better way to end the book then by getting a real treat, so make sure to continue past the book’s Epilogue. Sadly, there was no indication if this series is going to continue on from here. But I have plenty more of her books to read in the meantime.
I was not compensated nor was I required to write a positive review. The opinions I have expressed are my own.
I read this via my ku subscription and am leaving my review voluntarily. This is part of an ongoing series. It helps to start with book 1 as the stories are connected. This is a dark story and may have triggers for some.
Triggers: age gap, violence, murder, g a n g r a p e, mmf, m/m

A quick story about Mamba, Gator and a waitress they meet.
The two men thought they had found the perfect woman in Maria but after she left, they both questioned what went wrong.
I wish this story was a bit longer. Sexy time. HEA
I was waiting to know what happened to Jaguar. I felt for him, Eagle, and Mountain. Why they let things get so out of sorts? Why didn’t they just talk about Della and the sharing. I enjoyed the fact that Jaguar wanted to redeem himself. He knew that he was wrong and that he should have been more mature about the relationship between the guys and Della. In this book Jaguar is growing as a man and realizing that he needs to step up. On a secret assignment, on his own, he is trying to take down the enemy. Jaguar ends up saving a beautiful young woman Pamela. She is already in lust with him, but Jaguar stepped up to save her life. This is their journey. The short story at the end is beautiful with Gator, Mamba, and the beautiful Shelby. It’s well written. . . . Read On!
Jaguar has struggled with his demons forever, his childhood was something no child should every have t o go through. Jag ' s betrayed the club them ran and now he's on the road to redemption. Pamela knew that she’s in a no-win situation, thanks to her father. Jag though he lost a part of himself until he meets his Sunny. As they prove themselves to each other and the Savage Beasts, they find love. Their story is emotional, heartbreaking, action packed and full of suprises. Mamba and Gator have always been taken with one another and I so happy things turned out the way they did for them and they got the happiness they deserved .
Five stars not enough for its book. Jaguar was lost in his world of hatred and betrayed his brother's and his club. Pamela is the club princess and heading to hell on her 18th birthday. Jaguar takes one look at Pamela and knows that he has to save her and seek redemption form his club. A lot of action and a twist that will make you gasp.
The short story Unchoke me is just as good. Mamba and Gator get their HEA all thanks to Shelby.
I think this was one of my favourites, more so because the character showed growth and the story line moved forward with a proper HEA. I get these books are meant to be dark, the author doesn’t pull any punches. They are fast and gritty within the MC world and the alpha males that live within it. The short story at the end really topped the series and tied it with a bow.
Nothing like a Savage ending . Jaggers did something unspoken. He tried to kill a brother. On the run looking for salvation. He stumbles across sunny. Innocent and jailbait. He wants to save her. But how if he can't even safe himself. Together they learn a second chance is worth all they have endure. Both saving each other.
This might be my favorite from the series. I was curious if Jaguar could redeem himself and boy did he in spades. Pammy was amazing. She is definitely one of my favorite heriones from this series.
I liked revisiting this club. I enjoyed this read and learning the fate of two other member in the short story. I would recommend reading the whole series to know the H in this book better but it’s not necessary. Looking forward to the next gen books.
As much as Jag was an absolute jerk in the past books, he more than made up for it in this one. Good characters and plot. Great twists and turns plus lots of action. A very enjoyable book.
Im new to the author but I LOVED every single one of the books. I adored Mamba, Silver & Dragon! I do wish that the short stories were like a novella. I hope that we get a new generation with Buster & Kora !
Forgiveness is not something the Savage Beasts MC are known for...especially when it comes to the betrayal from one of their own.
Jaguar has turned his back on his brothers, he has run and hidden after losing his control, and his mind, over Della and Eagle. He has started to atone for his mistakes in the only ways he can think to, by working undercover in one of the most disgusting MCs the Beasts have ever been into battle against. He isn’t expecting to be forgiven, or even saved from his fate, the one thing he has done is protect a young girl from a horrific situation, hoping the Beasts will step up and do right by her because she is an innocent victim.
Pamela has been raised without love, without care, and without respect. Her entire life has been about survival and fear. Having a person who is one of the most vile men to ever exist as a father has been a living nightmare. Dylan (Jaguar) has never seemed like the rest of her dad’s brothers. This belief is shown to be true when a battle ensues and he saves not only her life, but saves her from an event that would ruin her for life. As Pamela meets the Savage Beasts and the women at their clubhouse, she slowly learns that not all MCs are like the one she grew up in.
Dylan and Pammy don’t make sense, he is more than 20 years older than her and he points that out often. He fights his feelings for her, believing he has no worth due to his past, and the decisions he made that caused him to lose the only family he ever had. Pam is innocent despite all she has survived, and cannot deny she wants more from Dylan. As time goes by, Jaguar is slowly accepted as a brother by various club members, even though he does not believe himself deserving. Nothing is easy, and his future is not certain, he has a long road to travel to get back into his club as a full fledged Beast, but it is easy to see he has changed. He has grown and matured in a way that he needed in order to become the kind of man Pamela needs.
Jaguar’s redemption has been a long time coming for readers of the Savage Beast’s series. His story is not easy, and readers will definitely feel the anxiety and doubt that Jaguar and Pamela both feel throughout this story. There are obstacles for the entire club to over come, and some revelations come to light. Overall, this story is well done on keeping with the way the Beasts operate their club. There is also a short story afterwards for Mamba and Gator that cannot be missed!
Finally redemption time’s arrived for Jaguar, after everything he’s been through with the Savage Beasts it’s time to put things right. Infiltrating the Beasts rival club, the Donkey Punchers MC and helping bring them down from the inside, Jaguar struggles with the goings on, he can't believe the way the members treat their daughters when they turn eighteen, he’s been holding of for as long as can, waiting until the daughter of the Donkey Punchers President is due to turn eighteen herself.
Pamela may only be just shy of eighteen, but she’s a wise head on young shoulders, old before her time some would say, she’s aware of what lies ahead and has been desperately trying to think of ways to get away, without success and just as her time is running out the Prospect from her fathers club, the one she’s been feeling a strong connection towards comes to her rescue. Jaguar feels that he’s for too old for Pamela, he also feels that he’s not good enough for her, however he can’t deny the chemistry between them, they have a connection of sorts like they’re bound to one another which is why Jaguar felt the need to bring her back to the Savage Beasts MC with him as he faces uncertainty, paying the price for his betrayal.
Will the Savage Beasts spare Jaguar his life? Can he remain in the club? Will he ever be accepted as a brother again? As for Pamela, will they allow her to stay? After all she is their rival's daughter, as for him will he even let his daughter go? Surely he’ll seek revenge on the Savage Beasts for taking her away from him.
You’ll find the answers and so much more in this dark, dirty and intense read, I can’t recommend it enough, another fantastic addition to what is an amazing series.
5 stars ***** We finally get Jaguars story… and what a story it is!!!!
After betraying The Savage Beast MC in the worst way, Jaguar knows he has to try to redeem himself, so he infiltrates The Donkey Punchers MC to take them down from the inside. He struggles with the inner workings of the MC and is completely disgusted at how the members treat their daughter when they come of age. When he meets Pamela he knows has to help this beautiful innocent girl out of a horrific situation.
Watching her mother die at the age of ten Pamela, the princess of the Donkey Punchers MC, has had a hard life trying to survive her controlling father and his vile men. She hates them with every fiber of her being and is desperate to find a way to get out before her eighteenth birthday. Then she meets Jaguar and he changes everything for her. She slowly learns that The Savage Beasts are nothing like her father and his MC brothers.
Jaguar is twenty years her senior and he tells her this often as an excuse to fight his feelings for her believing he is not worthy of such purity and innocence. Pammy knows she wants Jaguar, he is the only person she has even been attracted to. He saved her from a fate worse than death. As time goes by, he is slowly accepted back by some of the club members, but nothing is easy and with his future so uncertain he battles with his want for Pamela and his need for her.
Jaguars story is not an easy one and will have you on an emotional rollercoaster the whole way. I love this story so much. It is well written and really puts you on the edge of your seat and is a real page turner.
P.S. Mamba and Gator have a mini story at the end of this book that is a must read
It's so good to have another book from this author. I missed her writing. Hayley Faiman is the author that I'm talking about. Her writing is raw and wild, sweet and intense series with a touch of danger and darkness. Just see for yourself. Uncage Me is her latest release and it's the eighth book from the Savage Beast MC series. I hadn't read the first books from this series but I will get them. I love MC books and I know that coming from her they will be so good. This new book explores the lives of Jaguar and Pamela. Pamela is not the average teenager. Being the princess of an MC turning eighteen doesn't mean she's free to live her life. On the contrary... Jaguar hates himself. He sees himself as a traitor and traitors don't deserve to breathe let alone have a family. How can he amend this? How can he Uncage himself... Oh boy... What a journey this was... Perfect plot, well written, super dark, and engaging. Of course that you can find the light if you truly deserve it. You just need to seek it. The characters worked perfectly with each other and you could feel their struggles, their fears, their doubts. This book had it all, betrayal, loss, crime, darkness, as well as redemption, loyalty, and forgiveness. Of course that we have some hot stuff into the mix... Oh boy... My panties melted. lol This book was perfect and it made me want to read the other books from this series. I have a few questions that I need answers to. Great book Hayley. Perfect and I want more. I voluntarily reviewed an Advance Reader Copy of this book.
I feel like I have been waiting for this book for awhile, and then all of a sudden it snuck up on me. It wasn't a bad surprise at all. When it was announced that Jaguar was going to get a book, I was pretty adamant that he had to pay for his previous sins. He beat down Della emotionally. He actually shot Eagle. He betrayed his club, which in any MC book is a huge no-no. How was he ever going to be redeemable in a way that makes sense? Was I, as the reader, going to be okay with the way he enters the fold again? Is it going to cheapen the rest of the story that I have been invested in for 7 books? Let's just say that all fears should be put to rest. I consider this book one of the better Savage Beasts stories if not the best one.
The last time that Jag was mentioned, he's infiltrated the Donkey Punchers MC as a new prospect. He really is only there to gather intel so that the Savage Beasts can get retribution, but there's a little hiccup. He's wants to save the president's daughter from a fate worse than death. She's naive but there's something about her that calls to his wounded soul. I really enjoyed their story because it's not perfect. Jag is not given an easy pass for his actions, and Pamela has to learn to function on her own among other things. However, together, they might be able to heal each other's fractures. I also loved seeing glimpses of some of our favorite couples.
I am sorry to see this series ends, but there's a hint of a second generation. I am hoping Hayley takes the hint.
