Publisher's Summary

I named myself. I took the word animal out of their mouths, wore it like a badge of honor, then shoved it down their throats. I've fought for what I have. I see you coming before you even know you want a piece of me. In a city riddled with warring families, I'll rise up between them. My people, the broken souls I gather, will have power by the time I'm done with them.

I protect mine.

Him. My brother, Nix.

Her. The girl that is the only home I've ever had. She knows me.

I'm coming at you, sweetness. Stay ready.

Thoroughly Enjoyed!

Intriguing story. It's gritty, but in the best way.
Awesome narration - really, I'm about to search for my next book by narrator.
Romance is well developed. No insta-love ridiculousness.
Intimate scenes are gritty too, as they would need to be in a story like this, but hat's off to the author - they are well placed and not over done. They are written in the modern way with lots of frank details.

The first book was pretty good, this one is at least a shiny star better. The story is about the struggles and loyalties of kids who are truly on their own due to missing parents for one reason or another.

There is no cliffhanger but room for another addition in the series. hoping for that. Happy listening.

(I am an avid listener with over 700 titles in my library. Not compensated in any way for reviews)

Havoc YES!

5 STARS!! This book was the best. Animal and T to hear their story draws you in. Benjamin Charles did an awesome job and it was nice move to slide in Zachary Webber who voice I adore. I can listen to this again.

A story full of action!!

What made the experience of listening to Havoc the most enjoyable?

The audiobook experience was the best of Havoc. Rose Dioro & Benjamin Charles did a phenomenal job with their narrations. I loved the accent in Benjamin's performance, and his tone of voice was strong and dangerous, just like Animal. Rose's inflections were in point, showing a quiet but strong T in her voice, bringing the perfect contrast to her personality.
And the few chapters narrated by Zachary Webber were amazing. I never imagined getting Nix' POV in this book, it was a great surprise.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Havoc?

My fav scenes were the ones with a lot of action. T was a badass and the description in the book was pretty accurate: "A ballerina made of violence". I loved the description of the fights, they were stressful and full of action.

Any additional comments?

I loved how protective Animal was of the inner circle of people in his life: T, Nix, Becca, Nix' sister Ember and Merck. I loved his loyalty to all of them and how they were loyal to him as well. I loved the dangerous plot around this whole story and how all of them had a very important role in Havoc. But what I loved the most is how Nix and I overcome all their ugly pasts and became strong characters in the present, ready to kill and be killed to protect their loved ones.

This was a good read!

I would have like to know what happened with Merk and Ember. All in all it was good.

Beautifully Heartbreaking

What a journey! I think I’ve cried more through this than I have in the last few years. The story is well presented and you can’t help but feel love and compassion for the characters. I knew the story would end well, but getting there was rough. I can’t wait to discover what else Debra Anastasia has written. I highly recommend Havoc if you’re looking for a love story that’s not cliche.

All around great book 💗

Excellent story, and superb narration. It was the perfect follow up after Mercy. I love the relationship between all the characters, so much love and support. Family is everything and I love how they stick together. Animal is someone I would LOVE to know, and T is a total badass. Love them both. Didn’t want to stop listening and that’s how I know when a book can be called GREAT.

Disappointed

I absolutely loved Mercy, it’s one of my favorites. I wasn’t sure about reading Havoc because Animal is a man whore who sleeps with tons of random women. Multiple women at a time, orgy style. But I was hoping there wouldn’t be any of that, but I was very wrong. There are detailed sex scenes of him with other woman besides the heroine, and to make it worse, it’s after he knows how the heroine feels. The depth of connection that Nyx and Becca has in Mercy is missing from Havoc. Animal was so horrible to T and she just let him. I didn’t really want to read about the past either, so the chapters from the past didn’t really draw me in. The positive is I listened to the audio and the narrators did a good job. The narrator for Animal did a good job, but I didn’t like his other voices; especially the women. The female narrator did a good job. Zachary Webber is amazing, he was the 3rd narrator. So, anyway, I’m very disappointed and will make sure to read reviews before I purchase another Debra Anastasia book. Some of the later stuff was okay, and it was great to see Nyx and Becca. Unfortunately, that’s not enough and my Read was already tainted by Animal’s actions.

Fantastic

I adored this book, the narrators were just perfect and the story was brilliant. I loved animal in Mercy and was so excited to listen to this. it was everything and more.

brilliant story. cannot fault it in any way.

The struggle, the patience of the , it pulls you in. from all angles. make you realise that bad is not always bad. so much feeling. Brilliantly written

Great story

Definitely read Mercy (the first in the series) before this one as although it focuses on different characters, it’s very much intertwined. I thought Mercy was an ok/good listen, but this one was better.

This book succeeded at getting me completely absorbed and invested. Great plot and good characters. I’ve listened to way over 1000 books now and I rarely give a 5 star rating.

I’m surprised I still stuck with the 5 star rating despite the numerous other women, graphic scenes with other women, and the heart wrenching hurt it causes the lead female (they’re not in a relationship at the time so it’s not cheating, just horribly and knowingly hurtful). Even how it all turns around doesn’t feel like penance has been paid. However, despite all that, I still felt like this book had me hooked and the great plot means I can overlook that. If you’re looking for a fluffy romance this book is NOT for you. Definitely a strong emotional connection, but lots of other action going on too.

I’d liken this book to the King series by T.M. Frazier, and it’s got elements of Colleen Hoover books too (both authors have books I’ve loved).

And Benjamin Charles as a narrator? Seriously sexy. The 5 star performance rating is for him. Just checked and it’s a big shame that he hasn’t got any other books on Audible at present. Rose Dioro was ok, not my favourite and she wasn’t great at male voices, but it didn’t detract from me enjoying the book too much.
