Review: Wrecked - E.M. Shue

Wrecked by E.M. Shue
My rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ stars

Wrecked by E.M. Shue is book one in the Devil’s Handmaidens MC: Alaska Chapter and boy is it an emotional ride. The book tells the story of Scout aka Riddler who is President of the new Devil’s Handmaiden MC in Alaska and Thad. Both of the have a complex history and are on different sides of the law. Years ago, Riddler left with a lot of secrets and has come back to Alaska with just as many as she tries to find out what happened to her father. Thad, never understanding why Riddler left has some resentment towards her, but it is only through him finding out the truth, that his card of lies falls apart and he is determined to have Riddler in his life again, no matter how complicated that might be.

This story had a lot of secrets, betrayal and drama with lots of twist and turns, all which seem to lead back to Riddler, and not necessarily her fault. I love that she is a strong character who does have a streak of vulnerability that runs through her. She doesn’t put up with Thad and his ultimatums and is a wonderful mum to her young daughter. The feelings that her and Thad have for each other are complex but passionate and also complicated, making this a wonderful and suspenseful read.

There are some great characters in this book and I can’t wait to see what more this series has to offer!

Review: Matching All the Way - Veronica Eden

Matching All the Way by Veronica Eden
My rating: 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 stars

Matching All the Way is a seriously sexy holiday read which will have you laughing and swooning all the way through the Christmas season. It tells the story of Cole and Eve. Eve has always had a crush on Cole, her brother’s best friend, they grew up together and always seemed to have a connection and with Cole being back as an Assistant Coach for her father’s ice hockey team it seems that fate is going to keep throwing them together, especially since they keep matching up on a dating site. Trying to keep each other in the friendship zone is going to be tricky, especially when there is an undercurrent of sexual tension which is going to blow up at any moment.

Cole is a sexy and sweet main character; he totally gets Eve and her ADHD. He’s supportive and takes his time with her and let’s just say he is a master at the dirty talk! He is one of the best book boyfriends ever. Eve is equally as sweet and super quirky but has a goal and with Cole’s help and some sheer determination, she’s going to make it work.

Overall, this was a seriously sweet, sexy and all-round great read. Some great characters and low drama make it the perfect season read. A definite recommend from me!

Review: Dangerous King - Sienna Snow

Dangerous King by Sienna Snow
My rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ stars

Dangerous King by Sienna Snow is book one in the Street Kings series, and it is a sinfully hot book! The story focuses on Danika and Nikhil a complex couple who have known each other since childhood, one was shy and sweet, the other grew up on the street. As adults, Nikhil has become a mogul and Danika is put into an awkward position with her abusive uncle, but she has secrets of her own and this woman is powerful with a capital P. Her history with Nikhil is intense at times but they have both loved each other for a long time, sadly communication and their pasts get in the way of a clear run for these character’s.

Danika must make a deal with Nik and hopes that she doesn’t lose herself in the process whilst Nik has to come to terms with how her feels about the woman that owns his heart! There is definitely some sexy times between the two characters and I also loved the sub story that went on and hope that we get more from Nik’s brother in the series. I’m also intrigued to see if Danika’s slimy uncle pops up more too.

Overall, a really good and suspenseful romantic read!

Review: Until Hanna - Aurora Rose Reynolds

Until Hanna by Aurora Rose Reynolds
My rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ stars

Until Hanna by Aurora Rose Reynolds is book 13 in the Until Him/Until Her series and follows the story of Hanna Mayson and Walker St. James. Hanna meets Walker through her job as a flight intendent and both of them are instantly taken with each other, but it can only be a holiday fling since both of them have jobs that take them away from long periods of time. But when Hanna lets Walker know the reason that she can’t be more with him, it is game on and Walker will literally do anything to keep Hanna and help her to understand how important she is.

This was a wonderful book that can be read in one sitting. Hanna is both sweet and shy but feisty when she needs too. She has her girl gang behind her, and it is only from being burnt that she is hesitant to get together with the sexy and authorities Walker. When something bad happens though, he has Hanna’s back and even chats with her family (which gives him a big tick in the Mayson family book). Walker is definitely what Hanna needed, he is a mature man, with some dominant tendencies, but definitely treats her like royalty, even when she keeps pushing him away.

If you like your romances sweet with some hot scenes thrown into the mix, then this one is for you. Don’t forget the rest of the gang who also pop up in this book and you have a really great story with a HEA. A great addition to this series.

Review: Inciting a Riot - Karen Renee

Inciting a Riot by Karen Renee
My rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ stars

Inciting A Riot by Karen Renee is a fast-paced MC read set in the world of the Riot MC. It focuses on the characters Vamp and Lorraine. Vamp cheated on Lorraine many years ago and he has regretted it ever since. When he finds Lorraine in a dangerous situation, he knows that he will do anything to help her as well as make his past wrongs right. Lorraine on the other hand is unlucky in love, well at least when it comes t choosing the right man who isn’t a cheater. Sadly, things don’t work out for her once again and she finds herself in a violent confrontation which not only affects her work life but also her personal life. Enter the Riot MC, people who she formally knew and loved until Vamp messed it all up!  

Lorraine is a sassy woman who knows her own mind and doesn’t need anyone to save her. When she comes under the protection of the Riot MC, she knows it is in her best interest to take their help, but she doesn’t want Vamp’s help as he hurt her so much. Slowly though, their relationship starts to bloom again and both of them can’t ignore the tension that is between them.

There is a lot of sexual tension between these two characters, and it just works. Yes, there is some instant forgiveness and love, but it is an overall enjoyable story. Throw in some MC men, sassy women, suspense and sexy times and you have an easy read. What I really liked about the story is the other characters on the peripheral, and I hope they all get their own book so we can swoon over some more MC men.

New Release: Redeeming Rabbit - Harley Stone

 Title: Redeeming Rabbit

Series: Dead Presidents MC

Author: Harley Stone

Release Date: September 25, 2023

Genre: MC Romance, Military Romance

Goodreads: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/194737079-redeeming-rabbit

 Blurb:

Rabbit:

They say combat trauma can be the noose you hang from, the cross you bear, or the cliff you scale to survive. But I was a f*ck up long before my Army enlistment and the resulting PTSD. Thanks to the veteran MC that took me in, I’m coping with my condition. Mostly.

Until her.

The Complete Package. She’s way out of my league. I shouldn’t have a chance in hell with Elenore, but I got a peek under her hood and the sexy scientist has a screw loose.

Good thing I’m the best damn mechanic in Seattle.

 

Elenore:

I never once contemplated murder until my sister showed up bruised and bloody on my doorstep. Now, my intellect has overridden my morals to create an extermination plan with a 98.3% success rate.

Relax, I won’t actually kill anyone. Probably.

But he might.

Who knew I’d find a kindred spirit in my self-appointed tattooed biker bodyguard? Rabbit’s alarmingly protective but the most fascinating person I’ve ever met. And the sight of his bare chest just made the lock on my bedroom door spontaneously combust.

A tempest on the outside with a soft, gooey center, he could be the one.

If I’m strong enough to love him through his storms.

The Dead Presidents MC is a brotherhood of military veterans formed to help vets reintegrate into civilian society. They’re the good guys… mostly. Complete, standalone HEA love stories. No cheating, no cliffhangers.

Review: Reaper: Golden Skulls MC - Rebecca Joyce

Reaper: Golden Skulls MC by Rebecca Joyce
My rating: 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 stars

Reaper by Rebecca Joyce is book one in the Golden Sons MC series and boy is it action packed. The story starts with Reaper and Remi as youngsters, both being kidnapped and having unimaginable things done to them, they are lucky to survive. Being saved by Reaper’s MC family he knows that things will never be the same again and makes a promise to the little girl Remy that he will always be there for her. Fast forward a number of years and Remi is trying to find her saviour after again going through the unimaginable.

Thrown together through lies, hardships and love, we go on a journey with Remi and Reaper as they do what they need to do to survive. Reading about Remi’s journey is heartbreaking and horrific at times, as is the mental anguish that Reaper seems to go through on a daily basis. If you are triggered easily, this is definitely not a series for you as it does deal with a horrific subject matter and what happens to those that survive, it will certainly take you down the rabbit hole!

Remi and Reaper’s love is immediate and true, they are intense together (which can be seem through their sexy times),  but there is also a great sense of family in this series as well as people doing whatever they have to do, to get justice and bring the bad guy down.

That being said, there is a lot going on in this book, with lots of characters, twist and turns and things that you just don’t expect. It has been a while since I’ve read an MC series which has had me hooked form beginning to end and just makes me want to binge read the rest of the series. There are some grammatical errors throughout the book, but if you can overlook those them you’re going to really enjoy this series.

Review: Reaper - Bianca Lee Ward

Reaper by Bianca Lee Ward
My rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ stars

Reaper by Bianca Lee Ward is book 1 in the War Brothers MC and introduces us to Reaper and Ava. Ava is introduced to Reaper when she is at her sister’s wedding, but unfortunately the vibrantly beautiful woman is married so Reaper lets her go, it is only through circumstances that Ava is thrown back into Reaper’s world when she tries to escape her abusive husband. Reaper gives Ava what she needs, which is a safe place to stay, but the passion between them can’t be ignored and the two of them are explosive together.

This was a great start to a new series with some really interesting characters and circumstances that throw them together. Ava and Reaper are great together and I liked how Ava stood up for herself, especially when it came to her manipulative husband. The relationship that she has with her sister is also complex and I enjoyed the fact that everything wasn’t super sweet but there was an edge of grittiness to the whole story.

The introduction to other characters in this series was great too, and I’ll be interested to see who else pops up in the series.

Overall, a really good MC read.

Review: Redeeming Rabbit - Harley Stone

Redeeming Rabbit by Harley Stone
My rating: 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 stars

Redeeming Rabbit is part of the Dead Presidents MC series by Harley Stone and boy is it a great read. The story focuses on Rabbit, an MC member who has PTSD, his own demons and a lot of intenseness. He doesn’t see his own worth and struggles throughout the book to see how great he is. He instantly falls in love with Elenore ‘Poe” as the MC works with her and her sister, Tina after Tina’s abusive ex-husband comes after them.

Elenore is a fun and quirky character who overthinks a lot of things but is quite logical and methodical due to her science background and her quirks. She is apprehensive of Rabbit to begin with, but he definitely brings her out of her shell when he introduces her to the MC.

I really enjoyed the play between both characters as well as Elenore standing up to Rabbit to make sure that he got the help he needed as well as seeing his own self-worth. They were both really understanding of each other and even though there was some miscommunication, they were totally meant to be together.

Other secondary characters really helped Rabbit along the way and were rooting for Rabbit and Elenore. Overall, a really great book that deals with some serious issues but is all about meeting your person.

ARC received for a fair, honest and sometimes long review. All opinions are my own. 😊

Review: Dirty Twisted Lord - Jordan Grant

Dirty Twisted Lord by Jordan Grant
My rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ stars

Dirty Twisted Lord is book 3 in the Godless Heathens series by Jordan Grant. Be warned straight away that there are triggers in this book that some readers might find disturbing. The story focuses on Killian and Millie. Killian is damaged, a psycho with a darkness in him that is unmatched. We see that he has trauma form his childhood which has totally affected how he is right now and how that shapes his obsession with Millie, a good girl, who although broken is the light to Killian’s darkness. Millie has also been through her own trials and tribulations and although she starts of as a scared young woman who blends reality and that of the unknown, she becomes empowered throughout the story and that can only be because of Killian as well as her undeterminable strength as a character.

This is certainly a dark and twisted tale that isn’t for the faint hearted. If you enjoyed the previous two books in the series, you’re going to enjoy this addition. There is just something so page turning about an anti-hero and his corruptible prey. An addicting read to a fabulously twisted series.

ABOUT JORDAN GRANT

 Jordan Grant is a lost soul, who changed majors three times in college before deciding on English. Because she has about as much patience as her beautiful, wonderful (did she mention ah-mazing!) younglings, she graduated a year early and then went to law school because, well...

She mentioned she’s a lost soul, right?

The lawyer-turned-romance-author has a special place in her heart devoted to edgy alpha males and bad boys with naughty mouths. She loves to get lost in the blur between love and hate and is especially fond of prince charmings with dents in their crowns and strife in their souls.

She is an avid fan of all things sweet including red wine and cupcakes (red velvet, please!). When she’s not daydreaming about the characters in her head, she enjoys (attempting to) garden, petting furry animals, and wrangling her family into day-trip adventures.

Review: Glass Skulls - LM Terry

Glass Skulls by LM Terry
My rating: 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 stars

Glass Skulls is book 5 in the Rebel Skull MC series by LM Terry and boy is it a heartbreaker. The story focuses on Katie and Petey. Katie has had a hard life and she doesn’t let anything get in her way,  but she has a darkness inside of her which comes out now and again and this is what happens one day when she attacks a man for trying to do bad things to Petey’s daughter Charlotte, a young girl who Katie has a soft spot for. Here starts the relationship with Petey, a relationship that was once filled with hostility is now changing and becoming something else.

Petey is under no delusions that he is a bad man and kills for a living, but the one bright spark in his life is his daughter Charlotte and he will do anything for her, even protect the woman who protected her when he couldn’t. Petey’s relationship with Katie is complicated (as she’s a complicated woman), how to you crack the façade of a woman who doesn’t trust or like to be touched? You just keep chipping away at her!

This was a beautifully written story with some complex characters. Knowing the background of Katie from previous books, you understood where she was coming form and how she was protecting her heart, even from her own family. Both Katie and Petey fight like cat and dog, but you definitely know that there is some mutual attraction underneath that. I also loved the fact that the family element is so strong, and everyone is trying to help one another, even when sometimes that can become overbearing.

Overall, this was a great MC story with an amazing storyline and great characters. I can’t wait to see what else comes form this series.
