But her freedom shatters the night Billy’s men drag her back to the Order of Disorder—the O.D.—where she’s collared, degraded, and pulled into a spiral of humiliation, control, and paranoia. To survive, Max retreats into silence. She lets the club use her body while she disappears inside herself.

  She ran from the man who took everything. Now she’s living with four who might take more. Maxwell Finch is barely holding it together when she lands on the doorstep of four ex-special forces operatives who give her a place to land. There’s Ryder—cold, commanding, impossible to crack. Jake—charming and relentless. Damian—dangerous in ways he doesn’t bother to hide. And Wyatt—quiet, steady, and far more than he seems. She doesn’t know what she wants. She only knows she can’t stop wanting them. But the past has a long reach. And it’s catching up fast.

Fleeing a violent boyfriend, Hannah has nowhere to go and no one to turn to. When her car breaks down in the tiny town of Haven, Hannah is forced to rely on the kindness of strangers… three tall, strong, and very sexy strangers… Sean, a career criminal, has been trying to build an honest life for himself and his boys for decades. They’re right on the cusp of retirement when a young woman out of options lands on their doorstep, with trouble in hot pursuit. He shouldn’t want her. He’s the dad.

HAVEN is a sizzling standalone reverse harem story with slightly taboo themes and an HEA. My Review This book is a quick read. It is also my second book I have read by this author. Astra really does know how to bring the heat with engaging characters and good storylines. A reverse harem story with mixed with dashes of age gap/older man and "daddy kink"...check, check, check!...
