As expected with a little Damage , not a lot though, good purchase

Deliver Us is the first three books in The Deliver Series packaged together in a box set. In Deliver book #1 we meet Josh and Liv who set the storyline for this brilliant series. In Vanquish book #2 we get Van and Amber’s story, and in Disclaim book #3, it’s Matias and Camila’s turn.If you like dark romances then this book is definitely for you. You’ll be hooked by the thrilling twists and turns, not to mention the damaged characters; but the sexual, physical, and mental abuse is heartbreaking at times and may not be for the faint hearted.This brilliant darker than dark series is a story of redemption, forgiveness, and love, whilst fighting evil captors, slave traders and warlords.I’ve read all of this amazing series so far and can’t wait to read the last three books that are coming soon! I have this series on audiobook too and the narrators are fantastic. I highly recommend any and all versions.

I’ve been dying to read more from Pam Godwin since I read one of her stand-alone’s and she did not disappoint.The Darkness draws you in and won’t spit you out until each of the stories are finished with you and even then you’re trying to process, if your waiting to fall into the black hole well come on in, I’ll keep you a seat 🖤Honestly the cover alone should draw you in it’s absolutely stunning!!!!!But if you’re still questioning 🤨 then one click and dive right in!!!!!!

Deliver Us contains the first three books in Pam Godwin’s Deliver series – Deliver, Vanquish, and Disclaim – and I have rather mixed feelings about the series. It was an addictive read, but there were certain elements of the storylines I found difficult to connect to.In truth, I think I would have enjoyed these books a lot more if I had read them a few years ago. The storylines are addictive and suck you in, but the work I do makes it extremely difficult to get behind these kinds of storylines. I spend too much of my time picking things apart, noting on things that are too far from reality, and compare them with the things I have seen at work. Due to this, I’m pushed out of the storyline more than I should be and lose some of the impact of the story. This, however, is simply a result of working making it hard to enjoy these storylines when I know the reality and does not take away from the fact the author has created an addictive series.Although this ended up being not quite for me, I was addicted and can certainly see the appeal of the series. I’ll certainly be giving more Pam Godwin books a read in the future, as I’m curious to see what else the author has to offer.

If you were waiting to read 'Deliver' by Pam Godwin, now is the perfect time because she bundled all three books in a boxset so you can binge this deliciously dark romance series. This bundle contains the first three books in the series: Deliver, Vanquish and Disclaim!Deliver“She was stolen innocence, following the rules of monsters. Somewhere along the way, she’d become one.”This is one of my favorites in the series because the concept was new to me. Instead of a male kidnapper we follow a woman: Liv Reed, also known as 'the Deliverer'. Who's job is to kidnap and train slaves for specific clients. Her latest assignment is Joshua Carter, famous football player who wants to become a minister. In this book we get to know how and why Liv became the Deliverer and how Joshua Carter was the assignment she didn't see coming, who will break who?Vanquish“Eliminating the toxicity in your life is not a failure. It's curative and courageous and never, ever easy.”Oh gosh, someone who you thought was a unredeemable villain in the first book, stars in this one. And I don't know how Pam does is but she gets you to root for his happy ending too. Vanquish starts of right were Deliver left us. Van can't let Liv go because he requires some information from her, so he does what he does best. He stalks her. The female lead in this book is Amber, who has..issues..lots and lots of issues. She's agoraphobic, has OCD and a ton of self esteem issues because of her ex-husband. And somehow, through unconventional ways, they learn how to heal eachother. This one if for all of us who just can't help but fall in love with the Villain.Disclaim“Am I a slave or something else?” He cocked his head, his hands absently stroking her legs. “You’re my life, mi vida.”Disclaim features Camila, former slave, now head of a group that wants to bring down the leaders of the traffic circuit. On one of her missions, she poses as a slave once more to gather information needed to bring down the traffickers. However, she didn't expect that the buyer, her new owner would be someone she knew. Her former best friend and love of her life Matias. And now that he finally has her back, he's not planning on letting her go ever again.Overal, if you like your morally grey characters on the dark dark dark grey side, you will love this series by Pan Godwin. Although each book can be read as a standalone, I do recommend reading it as a series because it really broadens the plot. If you are a lover of Dark Romance, you need to pick up this series right away!

Deliver Us is one of the most dark, delicious, sinister , addictive series I HAVE EVER READ. It is so raw and gritty and spares no deviously demented detail. I really should be more disturbed, instead… I cannot get enough of these characters who should be unredeemable in every way. I’m a true sucker for a Stockholmn y'all! I want to see the most darling come from the most deplorable. Give me all the redemption, absolution, let me see every heard fought moment of vindication.DeliverIn Deliver book one we get the story of Liv and Joshua Carter, the All American, college football hero on his path to a life serving his creator. Unknowingly watched and ultimately chosen because he painted the picture of innocence with his gorgeous green eyes, Christiananity and disciplined skills on the field and off around his parents’ farm. Captured by the Deliverer to be trained as a slave for the Master that will ultimately purchase him , Liv, once a former captive since she was seventeen and slave herself, is tasked with training him.“She was a deliverer, a killer, a soulless captor.”From the get go things start to go anyway but how Liv predicted. I’m not gonna give anything away , but I will say that while Joshua did me the qualifications the buyer was looking for, Live was so inexplicably drawn to him from the first moment she had seen him and no matter what he was going to be the one they took.“He was a glimmer of goodness in her dark f’n world, a warm spark she could hold, if only for a fleeting span of time.”From early on he felt there was more to Liv than the cold Mistress vibe she was trying to portray. This story is so dark and all the webs that weave the ways this story connects all the characters together, Liv, Van, and Josh are emotional, and shocking. I felt ALL the feels in this book. Frustration, love, sickness, mad, sadness, desperation, overwhelmed, fear, redemption, angst and suspense. I loved Liv and Josh. I loved the hope he gave her. He was a walking ray of hope and second chance at life and our tragically broken and destroyed Liv needed that and more. Five Heart stopping Stars ⭐️🖤⭐️🖤⭐️🖤⭐️🖤⭐️VanquishHOLY HADES!! If I thought I loved Liv and Josh’s story, Yall! It had nothing on the number that Van and Amber’s story did on my heart. I HATED Van’s character for three fourths of book one and then right at the very end of book one something happens and I was in tears. Y’all really he was disgusting, creepy and seemed to have no conscience whatsoever. He had this weird love with Liv, but it was misplaced. He was trained to be the tyrant he was, by people who he should have been able to depend on. Anyhoo, when we start with book two it's around a year after the end of book one ended, and he is back up to his old watching/stalking ways, but there is a legit reason for it. During his staking out he runs across Amber, a former beauty queen with agoraphobia. In his selfish mind he quickly realizes one; she may have more issues than him and two; she just might be able to help him with his plans. The more I learned about this woman I was just so heartbroken for her. Van may be up to some of his old ways when he goes about helping Amber but OMG, this book is so freakin unexpected. It’s full of elements of violence, torture, emprisonment, with edgy BDSM themes used as coping mechanisms, yet it still a book oh so much hope and healing.“I enslaved her for seven years because I was selfish. That’s not love, Amber, which was why I never thought to free her.”We see such a side to Van I think we didn't even know existed to help Amber. IN helping heal her, he healed so much of his own brokenness, learned to care for someone so much that your own agenda mattered less than protected them did. GAH! I will never be the same after this book. TBH Vanquish is probably one of my ALL TIME FAVORITE stories of vindication and redemption. It was not an easy journey for Van or Amber but this was a phenomenal read. Five Vindicated Stars for Van Quiso 🔥⭐️🔥⭐️🔥⭐️🔥⭐️🔥⭐️DisclaimOMG! This series just continues to get better and better. In Disclaim we have the story of Camilla Liv’s first captive that was captured and trained by her and Van. Now no longer held captive but lives her life to fight to end human slave trafficking. She will do whatever it takes to ensure that happens, even if that means going in as a slave herself again. Things take a turn she could have never expected when she comes face to face with the boy she was best friends with as a teeenager before she was captured. The boy who was supposed to get all her firsts.“I’m scared, Matias, f’n terrified of where you’re about to take me, but I’m relinquishing that to you, surrendering my vulnerability without shame, because that’s what you want, and what you want, I crave.”This book is a rush of emotions and clashing of overwhelming desires, dominance. It’s about coming to terms with where they are now, getting over the years of deceptions, brutality, all the lies. Everything Matias and Camilla have been through and if there is any way they can overcome those insurmountable obstacles.“Over the years, his need for her hadn’t faded. It had become a living, starving thing inside him, ruling his f’n world.”I am OBSESSED with this series and cannot get enough! Five Submissive Second Chance Stars⭐️💋⭐️💋⭐️💋⭐️💋⭐️💋My cr8zysockbookblock blog wrap up for this book!⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐⭐- ALL THE FREAKIN Stars in the sky for this SET books 1-3 in the Deliver series.These books have everything you could want and more out of dark, delicious, deviant, dominant, and somewhat disturbed. Yet they are beyond ADDICTIVE and I can’t get enough. I live for the unredeemable to be redeemed and Pam Godwin is the queen if giving us these characters. They are tragically flawed, cracked and broken and she takes them on these gut wrenching journeys that help to put them back together. No without scars but better people because of their journeys.🔥🔥🔥🔥- These books are so hot. They are combos of dub-con,non-con, some BDSM and some serious Alpha Lovin’ and I am here for it ALL!!🌪Cliffhanger Warning- No cliffhanger! Each book does not end with a cliffhanger but the series does continue on with another couple.🔫🔫Trigger Warning- This book contains subject matter that could be a trigger for some folks. I’m not going to give specific spoilers. I will just say these books are heavily emersed in the world of human trafficking. It’s not always easy to read about it, but how the characters come out in the end was so important to their journey. If you have any specific questions please feel free to PM me.

DeliverWhat a fantastic book. It was dark and twisty, and very harrowing in parts. There’s so much heart in these characters, which makes their struggles and triumphs all the more interesting and real. It’s hard to like Liv at first, but you always get the impression that there’s more to her than what’s being presented. If you can get past the icky/iffy parts, you will not be disappointed by this story (or the series!).VanquishFirst off - I can’t tell you how happy I am that Van got a book!! Through most of Deliver, I wished a gruesome death on him... until the end. When I was devastated that he ‘died’. The relief I felt when Liv and Josh realized he was alive was huge.Which brings us to Vanquish. I wondered how a follow up book after such a neat, happy ending would go. I’ll be honest, I expected rainbows. I should have known better by now!The complexity behind the two characters was incredibly vivid in its intensity. We knew some of Van’s issues - though they’d never really been explained. But Amber’s illnesses and triggers were completely new - to us, and of course, Van. Watching him adapt to and change for Amber was my favourite part of this story. We, the readers, were always able to recognize that he never really loved Liv in a healthy, functional way, but watching Van himself come to that realization was the real breakthrough.I love that Stockholm syndrome was mentioned - and dismissed - particularly at the end.. which I won’t spoil. To me, this didn’t feel like captor/slave, even if that’s how it began. These were two broken people who fell into each other’s lives through circumstance, but when you find your missing half, your heart and soul know.I’m so happy Van had the chance at redemption. And even if the path was rocky and questionable, he came through the other side so much better than I ever could have imagined.DisclaimNow that I’ve finished this book, I’m almost ashamed to admit that I spent an amazingly long time of it sort of hating Matius. Not in the traditional way, either, but I was kind of hoping Camila would kick him in the balls. I’m happy to say that Pam redeemed him in the best way. And you can say what you will about antiheroes, but he’s a hero to me.Once again, we have an incredibly written, beautifully narrated story about unfathomable horrors. The depth of human depravity reached an all new level in Disclaim, and I find myself feeling completely impotent knowing that while this is fiction, it’s based in reality.As always, the character development was perfect, the twists and secrets emerged in all the right places, and the story was as compelling as it was heartbreaking.

Well-written but definitely out of my comfort zone. Felt compelled to read every word for their love story needed to be known.

Dark Romance lovers, rejoice! If you haven’t read any of the Deliver books now is the time to do so. The first three books in this action packed, suspenseful dark romance series are in one book bundle, Deliver Us, containing Deliver, Vanquish, and Disclaim. They’re interconnecting standalones, with different couples, and need to be read in order; each book will have you sitting on the edge of your seat.Filled with twists and turns you never expect, each book will keep you in suspense, not knowing who’s a good guy and who’s a villain. These books are addictive, and so incredibly steamy you’ll be fanning your face constantly, to cool off. It’s a good thing there are several more books in the series, you’ll crave them like a junkie needing a fix. Know these books aren’t for everyone, so beware, you’ve been warned! If you decide to wade in, you'll find they have a delightful and surprising HEA ending.Deliver sets the stage, introducing Van Quiso and Liv Reed. Van kidnapped Liv years ago and now she’s in charge of abducting, training, and delivering new s$x slaves to their masters. Kept in check by threats and fear, Liv finds Josh Carter, a young virgin to fulfill a specific order for a buyer. When he manages to break through her domme persona, Josh convinces Liv to break free, assuring she doesn’t have to fear anyone, including Van. And Liv frees Josh, in more ways than one.“I can feel you. Inside me. Everywhere. You own me, and I will walk through hell to keep it that way.”Vanquish is Van’s story and his journey to finding his true calling. While stalking Liv and Josh, Van’s attention is diverted by their beautiful and strange neighbor, Amber Rosenfeld. A former beauty queen, she’s housebound, suffering from agoraphobia, OCD, bulimia and an assortment of other ailments. Just what the doctor ordered, Van decides to claim her for himself; sure he can help her so she can help him later on. These two might be my favorite couple!“Let’s call it an exorcism. I’m not officially trained, but I’m well-versed in demons.”Disclaim features Camila Dias, a slave Van trained and Liv’s first delivery, and Matias Guerra. Camila has made it her life’s work rescuing victims of s$x trafficking rings and disbanding them. She grew up with Matias, the boy she loved and dreamed of marrying, before she was kidnapped and enslaved. No longer a boy, Matias is now a member of one of the most dangerous, ruthless Cartels and never gave up finding Camila. He’s been helping her for years; every time she calls he gratefully takes any crumb she throws his way. But when Camila finds herself in over her head, in chains once again, Matias could either be her captor or savior. The jury’s out on this one, you’ll need to read and find out!“He wanted her to love every piece of him, even the most depraved and unworthy pieces. Especially those. In return, he would protect her soul, cherish it, and put it at peace again.”

Overall, this set is worth reading. There are three books, so here's my mini-review of each:Deliver - 5 StarsThis book was amazing, brilliant, and complex. I've never been so anxious reading a book before (I haven't read many dark romances) but it was so worth it.Vanquish - 4 StarsThis one was okay. I appreciated the complexity of Amber, and how her having even more mental health issues than Van made it so he could actually focus on her instead of just doing what he always wanted. Although, to be honest, this story was rather light and sort of happy compared to what I'd expected for Van's story.Disclaim - 2 StarsThis was my least favorite, by far. The whole thing really dragged as Matias kept waiting for Camila to figure out what was going on inside the compound. (I guessed most of it pretty early on, which didn't help.) On top of that, Camila's character was all over the place, and was never really consistent. And while Matias kept going on about dominance, he mostly just beat her a lot. I get his surprises for Camila and his "secret missions" are supposed to warm him up to me, but I never really liked him. Both characters seemed flat after reading Van and Amber.Overall:Worth reading, although I won't be rereading Matias and Camila's story again. I'm continuing with the series, so here's to hoping the next one about Tate is on par with Deliver and Vanquish.
