Life is twisted and cruel.

After being ripped from the safe haven of Rafe’s arms, my kidnapper is waging a sick game. Unable to make my body do his bidding, he’s using mental warfare instead.

I’ll go through hell to get back to Rafe, but I’m unprepared for what I find.

He’s done what I can’t: he’s erased eight years of pain and betrayal. I don’t know how to bring him back to me, because bringing him back means ripping him to shreds all over again.

NOTE TO READERS: Rampant is a dark romance with kidnapping and other disturbing themes. Intended for mature readers. Not for the faint of heart. You’ve been warned. Part 2 in the Condemned series.

Review

"Haunting and pervasively atmospheric, Rampant is darkness imbued with an affecting power." ~ Pam Godwin, New York Times Bestselling Author
"Gemma James DOES NOT hold back in her latest installment of the Condemned Series. Suspense and angst like no other, Ms. James takes us on the ride of our lives with this incredible dark romance." ~ Shayna Renee's Spicy Reads
"I am speechless. Utterly and completely speechless. To describe this book as dark, twisted, wicked, and mind bending can not begin scrape the surface of what this book is and where it will take you." ~ Kathy Reads

5.0 out of 5 stars A very addictive read!
Reviewed in the United States on November 17, 2014

After reading the first book in this series, Torrent, I knew I had to get my hands on Rampant. This is the continuation of Alex’s story. Her twisted love for Rafe, and her desperation to get away from her brother-in-law, Zach. I chewed all my nails off reading this story. The Condemned Series is the most addictive reading I have done this year so far…

This story picks right up at the ending of Torrent. Alex is being taken away by her brother Zach. She thinks Rafe is dead. He isn’t dead, he has amnesia from the fight with Zach. The fall made him forget the last eight years of his life. He now has to rely on those people around him to figure out how he got to this point. While he is busy trying to put the pieces back together, Zach has claimed absolute control over Alex. She is trapped in a cabin with her sick brother. The things he does to her made my stomach turn. I want him dead, not just gone. He has their father in his pocket and the law. There seems to be no escape for Alex and then she does the unthinkable. At least, Zach never saw it coming. Rafe finally connects the dots enough to seek Alex out, but it might be too late to undo what has been done.

I have to say that Gemma has created some really f***** up characters that break taboos. Her heroine, Alex, is kidnapped, raped, tortured, drugged all in the name of love. This poor girl is in the wrong family, the wrong town, the wrong time. I feel so bad for her. She didn’t have a choice. Just like I now have not choice but to wait, with baited breath, for the next book in this series. I can see that Gemma covers all the angles of escape for Alex. This story was well thought out. I am addicted to these characters.

There is so much angst in this book. I am not even going to talk about the sex scenes in this book because some of them were not consensual. When it comes to the scenes where both parties are down, the words almost melt off the page. Rafe and Alex are so hot together. I want them to have a happy ending. This book ending on a cliff and so I dangle waiting for the next installment. It doesn’t seem likely that these two can be together with everything that stands in their way. I know this story can find a way. I am anxiously waiting to see what happens in the next book. Bring it, Gemma!

Good book. Still like Rafe a lot. Alex was better in this book and not as annoying. Still don't like the Nikki and now Jax thing. Nikki just feels like a filler for more drama. I'm curious to see how daddy dearest is truly involved in everything since I believe there's more to him that what's being shown!

3.0 out of 5 stars Installment #2 - major cliffhanger
Reviewed in the United States on November 13, 2014
Verified Purchase
Quick paced and a dark storyline, just a few things I like in a good book. Rampant was quick paced and had a dark storyline.

Now for the however. When I pre-ordered Rampant, the author had not included the following tiny bit of pertinent information; "RAMPANT is a new adult dark romance with disturbing themes and explicit content, including sexual scenes and violence that may offend some. Intended for mature audiences. Part two of the CONDEMNED series. This is not a stand-alone read, and it does have a cliffhanger! There will be at least THREE parts to this series. Approximately 46,000 words."

When I pre-ordered Rampant, I was under the impression (based upon the previous book description) that Rampant was book 2 of 2. Two books period. Not, "at least three parts." I do not like serials and I do not like cliffhangers. I purchased "Torrent" which was on sale at the same time that I pre-ordered "Rampant." I was fine with it being a two book story and I was also fine with the cliffhanger in Torrent because I was under the impression that everything would be wrapped up nicely in Rampant (book two). It was not. I feel like I was duped with a bait and switch. Sure, there is now a disclaimer but it was not there when I purchased books one and two.

- - - - - - - - - SPOILERS SPOILERS SPOILERS - - - - - - - - - -

At the beginning of Rampant we find out that Rafe is alive but he now has amnesia. He doesn't remember anything that occurred in the past 8 years (book one). So the reader gets to discover (again) along with Rafe this time what happened in Torrent (installment #1).

- - - - - - - - - - END OF SPOILERS - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Rampant has a major cliffhanger ending. Imagine my surprise when I discovered the huge cliffhanger ending. Keep in mind I still thought that Rampant was book 2 of 2. "Rampant" simply reads like a vehicle to get to the next book. I will not be buying book three nor will I ever and I mean ever, pre-order another book from this author.

5.0 out of 5 stars Gripped!
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on April 25, 2016

I am only 84% of the way through the book but I was too excited to write a review I just couldn't wait! I have to tell everyone to read this book!

This is the 2nd book in the Conemned series from Gemma James and it is just as gripping as the first. I went to bed early but still ended up having a late night! Where the first book, Torrent, was more a whirlwind of seduction and pleasure this book is more a follow on and build up of the story. Torrent ended on such a cliff hanger and this book has been working through that. That is not to say that there isn't steamy moments in this book they just happen to be with the wrong person. I really love how the story has developed and matured in this book. It's not just a steamy romp anymore it's life. I personally, and I imagine most of us are, am so invested in Alex, I feel all of her pain and her pleasure and I hope i'm not the only one but I actually shed a couple of tears through out this book.

My heart races throughout most of this book. I feel Alex's hate for Zach deep down in the pit of my stomach and I feel her want for Rafe in the depths of my heart, I feel her fear of the lake in my beating heart. Sometimes I have to put the book down just to catch a breath. This story is a very intense experience for me and I can imagine i'm not the only one so strongly invested in this story and it's characters. I often go about my day wondering what is happening in Alex's world and wondering what is going to happen and taking every spare moment I get to swiftly open my phone and read a few more lines.

I can honestly say, hand on heart, that a book has never made me feel so much! Gemma James is incredibly gifted for putting you in the moment. As if you were right there in Alex's shoes, as if you could hear the water splashing at your sides, as if you could feel the wind whipping your hair in your face, as if your heart was beating out of your chest. This is the best story I have ever read and there is never a dull moment or a slow spot. James goes into great detail to put you in the moment but not so much that it starts to resemble a Charles Dickens adjective-fest.

Gemma James is so remarkably talented, her grammar is impeccable and her paragraphs are coherent. She writes with flair and finesse and knows how to effectively and fairly concisely describe a scene and setting. I would recommend her as an author to anyone! I think she's my new Sophie Kinsella, but with pleasure replacing comical effect. That's not to say I haven'y laughed a couple of times throughout this story. This is honestly such a good read and I would strongly recommend it to ANYONE! 5 stars! Can't wait for the next one!

5.0 out of 5 stars Noch gruseliger
Reviewed in Germany on December 13, 2014

Das hier ist das zweite Buch von "Torrent (Condemned Book 1)" ohne man dieses hier nicht versteht. Es sind 150 Seiten angegeben, aber ich glaube es sind eher 300. So fühlte es sich zumindest an, denn man liest zwei drei Tage daran.
Zwischendurch mußte ich auch mal den Kindle zur Seite legen, weil es mir zu intensiv und brutal wurde.
Nachdem der erste Teil mit einem halben Happy End aufgehört hat, beginnt dieses Buch ziemlich dramatisch und bleibt auch lange schaurig. Die Frau wird diesmal von ihrem durchgeknallten Stiefbruder entführt, unter Drogen gesetzt und gequält. Wer rettet sie nun?
Der dritte und letzte Teil "Fervent (Condemned Book 3)" erscheint erst 2015.

To sacrifice your life for the one you love is the biggest gift you can give but what happens if that person doesn't know you have do e this for them?
This is that story yes it's grafic but life isn't flowers and chocolates.
And the People who are supposed to protect are the ones who hurt you the most. In its own way it's romantic warts and all
