WOW! Holy Sh*t!!! Natalie Bennett is an amazing author whose books I like more and more with each one I read. Outcasts Left me completely MINDBLOWN it’s a dark and twisty mindf*ck of epic proportions! It picks up right where Deviants ended with Arlene kidnapping. AND its finally time to get Arlene and Grimm’s story!!! Also, just a side note really, but Outcasts is a standalone book within a series; However, I would highly recommend you read these books in order as the relationship between Grimm and Arlene starts in Savages. Now, this review isn’t going to include any spoilers. Also, I am not going to bother giving you a synopsis of the story. I am just going to tell you what I loved about the book…
Natalie Bennett did an incredible job in writing a blurb and selecting a cover image that really works for Outcasts! I was so intrigued by the cover that I couldn’t wait for the book to release and signed up to review it as a blogger. Let me tell you I am so grateful to have had this opportunity and cannot possibly thank the author and the PR company enough for letting me have this chance. I love dark romance and would tell you that Natalie Bennett is my current favorite author for this genre. She writes twisty and arcane stories that keep you on the edge of your seat. Outcast is very well written and had a faster pace that worked extremely well for the plot. Set in a post-apocalyptic word where anything goes and sick, twisted minds reign supreme!!! The distorted life lived by one and all is intense and will leave your body rife with tension at some of the scenes play out. Outcasts was absolutely a roller coaster of emotions. This book is truly a DARK romance set in a warped time and place called the Badlands. Arlene endures horrific, perverted moments during her kidnapping that made me sick! This book had lots of blood and guts.
Grimm and Arlene (our hero and heroine) of Outcasts were disturbed and perfect for one another; In a broken and unstable sort of way. It takes Grimm time to come to turns with his deepening feelings for Arlene in Savages and Deviants… hell, he was ready to kill her to keep from the prolonged exposer to these feelings. Only he can’t, he’s falling too quickly. As twisted as Grimm is, Arlene’s spunk, backbone, loyalty and bombshell body draws him in like a moth to a flame. Soon, Arlene is the Queen to his King. In Outcasts, Arlene endured things that NO WOMAN should ever experience and instead of allowing it to rule her life, she takes back her power! I loved her smart mouth and how she just gets Grimm. The chemistry between the two is tangible and intensely sexy!!!! Like you will need a change of panties and new batteries by the time you’re done reading the book 😉
If you’re in the market for a dark romance that will have the hair standing up all over your body, you have to read Natalie Bennett’s Outcasts. Its seriously twisted as f*ck. But I FLOVED it! Like FLOVED it so hard that Natalie Bennett needs to get Heathen’s, the next book in the Badlands series, released in very short order… otherwise, I think I might insight a riot 😉 I highly recommend this series and Outcasts and give it 5 out of 5 stars!!!
