About the author
Sarah Bale's family always knew she was destined to write romances when they saw the elaborate stories she created for her Barbie dolls. At fifteen she penned her first book, which will never see the light of day if she has any say.
When Sarah isn't writing she enjoys spending time with her family and friends, and also planning what she’d do in a zombie apocalypse. One of her favorite pastimes is attending comic cons where she can nerd out over all things Marvel. She is a USA Today Bestselling author, and resides in Oklahoma where she doesn't plan on leaving any time soon.

Ten years ago, Alessandro met Isabetta by chance. Both felt an immediate connection, but as she was on the cusp of her 18th birthday, she was out of bounds and he was only in town briefly for business on behalf of the Defiant God Brotherhood, a secret society with immense power over decision-making in everything from the mafia (Alessandro is a mafia Don as well) to politics to Hollywood.
Present day, Alessandro (known as the Violent God) has just become an Elite Member, one of the five men who rule the Brotherhood, following the murder of the 5th Member. Alessandro never expected to be promoted this quickly and he’s not happy about it, especially as he’ll have to marry. His best friend Brooks, who’s next in line whenever another Member dies, takes Alessandro to a meeting with a man named Giosue who wants to join the Brotherhood. Giosue is rich, but needs his heiress fiancée’s money to afford membership. Alessandro is shocked to learn that fiancée is Isabetta, who’s been controlled by her abusive father her entire life and is being forced to marry Giosue. She has no idea that she’s to inherit a fortune on her wedding day. She’s always had problems standing up for herself but she finally finds her spine when she’s at the altar. At the same time, Alessandro unexpectedly shows up and marries her instead. While Alessandro hunts down the murderer stalking the Elite Members, he worries about keeping his new bride safe. Meanwhile, Isa wonders if she’s traded one cage for another. Will her father/Giosue let her go? Will she fit into Alessandro’s violent world? Can she ever love her husband?
I was so excited when I learned Sarah was writing a new series! She has a unique ability to blend dark and light and make the reader fall in love with men who are often more villain than morally gray (and who you really want to smack sometimes!). The women are always strong (even when they don’t think they are), the plots are always intricate and the smexy times are oh-so-seriously steamy. She already has me anxiously awaiting book 2. Even though we only got snippets of Brooks, I can tell I’ll love him.
I flew through the story but was sadly disappointed at the end. Not at the story itself, silly. At myself. I hated I couldn’t pace myself and savor it longer. But with the writing as perfect as it was and the romance as delicious as Bale was putting out, I couldn’t help myself. I am a grown woman with no self control.
Violent God ended up being more than I could have hoped for. It was suspenseful, utterly intense, and had me glued to the pages. I wanted every secret I could pull from it. Obsessed. There. I said it. I was obsessed!! I need more and I need it now. 5 Stars.
The pace is relentless, keeping you on the edge of your seat from start to finish. I can't wait to delve into the stories of the other Brotherhood members.
Loved the wedding crashing scene, hooked me right from the beginning! Great book!
