Gunner by H.J. MarshallMy rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ stars
Gunner by
H.J. Marshall is a steamy MC romance with a lot of drama, heartache and redemption.
The story follows the lives of Gunner a man whose childhood and subsequent stint
in the military has led him to be a part of the Death Hounds MC and Sadie, a
young woman who has been through a traumatic event which has left her emotionally
and mentally scarred. We follow their journey as the two characters lives
become entwined, but it is not all sweet and rosy and there are some hard
lessons for both of them along the way.
Gunner
has to live with his past trauma as well as PTSD which does cause him to view
relationships differently. There are times when he doesn’t treat Sadie the
nicest and does things which may not be forgivable. Yet saying that, he is a
likeable and redeemable character and knows that he has messed up. His love for
Sadie could be seen as a little different as he learns about what she has been
though and also the secrets and lies which have led not only the MC down a path
of violence, but also his own path of violence and retribution.
Sadie is
also a character dealing with her own trauma which can be seen throughout the
whole book. But she also doesn’t suffer fools and won’t put up with the things
that Ginner puts her through, and forgiveness is a long time coming. Her
relationships with her brother and Uncle are both sweet and sad at the same
time, but by the end of the book, she definitely comes out swinging and finds
her own identity, which is a strong willed, determined woman!
This was
a really good MC read, with a gritty storyline, a slow burn romance that burns white
hot at points and is filled of violence, blood and redemption. It may not be
for everyone and there could be triggers for other readers, so be warned!
ARC received for a
fair, honest and sometimes long review. All opinions are my own. 😊
