Can two hearts entwined by hardship move on to form a healthy bond? From the author of His to Love and His to Protect, this tender, bittersweet romance brings together a man who loses everything—and a woman with everything to give.

Chelsea Dwyer arrives home from her job at the middle-school library in Latham Hills, Michigan, expecting another quiet evening—until she hears the screams for help through her living room window. As the first witness to a terrible accident involving two local students, Chelsea doesn’t anticipate how her own life will be irrevocably changed by the father of one of the boys. In the wake of tragedy, she’s the only one who seems to understand his grief. Chelsea’s a survivor, too—and she knows that there are brighter days ahead.

As a single father, Aidan Deveraux worked his entire life to provide a stable home for his son, Derrick. Without him, Aidan feels the deepest despair imaginable. The one thing that keeps him going is his connection with the woman who tried to save his son. Hard as he tries, Aidan just can’t stay away. Chelsea’s warm embrace is the comforting solace he desperately craves—and it doesn’t hurt that Aidan had noticed the beautiful librarian and wanted to ask her out for years. Now that she’s in his life, he doesn’t ever want to let go.

When you read a Stacey Lynn book you feel the emotion and the depth of pain/joy each character is feeling throughout the book. I have been attached to characters and loved them but no of them compared to what I experienced reading this book.

This book was so much more to me than a book, it was a book of hope to me personally. I love Chelsea and the person she was and even more the person she became through everything. My story is not like Chelsea's but I feel this connection with her through what she was thinking and my frame of mind. I felt like her words were exactly how I feel.

I hope to NEVER feel what Aidan goes through during this book, but I hope anyone that does or has can read this book and feel the growth in Aidan to help them overcoming their struggles. I will say that I felt like slapping Aidan a few times, which after you read this book you will agree with me. But I LOVED this story!!

My stomach is in knots after reading this emotional, heart warming and gut wrenching story. This has been hands down the best read I have had the chance to read from Ms. Lynn! Thank you for giving me such an overwhelming book that I connected with in such a soul deep level. I am patiently waiting for your next read.....for now.

I didn't start reading any of Ms. Jones' books from the beginning so going back to see where you meet Alaina, Vicky and Blake put all the books into order for me. Seeing what these men and women went through at the beginning of their friendships and relationships blew me away! I knew Ms. Jones could write and express so much emotion through her stories but talk about HOT and PASSIONATE!

I am a very big Amo Jones fan and to say that I was thrown back into a wall, pushed and shoved with emotions for these amazing characters does not even come close to describing what they went through and how I was pulled along. I can not and will never get enough of Amo Jones' books and I can not wait to see where she takes us next time. Ms. Jones these characters are becoming apart of my soul and I nearly broke several times during this box set! I love you for all of the pain though and congratulate on an outstanding job of writing greatness!

I think I am officially obsessed with this author because every time I read her books I get completely consumed by everything in the book I am reading. Everything in the world gets closed off for me and it feels like I am sitting near the people in the stories she tells. Especially this book had me right next to Bryleigh for the entire book, even if it switched to another person, and my stomach was aching around every different chapter wondering how things could have gone this way or that.

This read takes you back to what happened with Bryleigh and Ryker all those years ago during high school and what happened between them for Ryker to not have her family invited to a certain event. Let me tell you I was LIVID when I read about the past that she was put through and no wonder Ryker didn't want them invited. I understood how Ryker was from reading Losing Traction but the way he reacted with Phoebe made me hope he wasn't guy I had pictured in my head. But, Ryker is well, Ryker and he has a hot head when it comes to Bryleigh.

This book was my everything for the past two days, and two days because I wanted to expand this book out as much as I could because I am in love with these characters. All things that include this band and the people they are connected to pulled me into their world and has me aching for more. Some crazy stuff happens throughout this book and not only did those things shock me but they left me speechless with many different emotions. Ms. Jones kept me sad, excited, turned on, disgusted, hurt, and I even laughed quite a bit with Indie and Phoebe at times. If you haven't read an Amo Jones book yet, I suggest you start now because they are dark but they are AMAZING!!

I love MC books and I especially love MC books by these two ladies!! I was so excited to get this ARC and have a chance to get a glimpse of the men of Vipers Creed MC and Devil's Due MC!! I was in a different frame of mind after finishing a different read so I was a little lost thinking this should be apart of the other book, but that was something that quickly fixed itself after the first few chapters. You dive right into Ms. Camaron's Devil's Due MC where she takes you through the earlier years and it was hard for me not to question about a few things I remembered from the actual series that I read.

When I got to where Ms. Michele wrote about the Vipers Creed MC it was easier for me to pin point important parts I wanted to know about from the actual series because this was the last out of the two I read. I would have loved to read this novella before each series, and tie all of this together while binge reading! I loved hearing more about the early years of Stiff and Spook, although some of Spook's actions upset me very much and wanted to punch him.

Getting to hear from each of the guys from each motorcycle crew was so HOT and I just kept reading wanting more! Hearing some of their stories and how things started off for some of the guys was intense. I loved this novella and hope to read more from these two ladies together again!! Congrats on an awesome 4 star read!!

Holt

She likes it quick and dirty.

I like orders and rules.

She hates small talk.

I hate to share.

She’s an open book.

I’m a closed dresser drawer.

She rides a Harley.

And that drives me f’ing nuts.

Annalyse and I have both lived in our own personal hells for half a decade. She’s learned to love the warmth, and I’m still consumed. But my new neighbor is stoking more than my libido these days. We agreed on only pleasure. But she changed the rules.

And now I’m not even sure what they are.

Maybe there’s a reason she found me that night, maybe there’s a reason I can’t stop thinking about her, maybe there’s a reason for the pain. Maybe not.

We all look for reasons in life. Reasons for death, love, pain. Why one thing happens and not another? It’s human nature. We’ve been looking for the meaning of life since the beginning of time. But maybe the reason for all of it — life, love, loss, heartache — is the curvy brunette living next door.

I find when a book makes me cry I have really felt the book deep in my soul. The last couple of Prescott Lane books I have read have left me in tears and I LOVE that about this author. You feel exactly what she wants you to feel and you grow with these characters. Every chance I get I will grab a Prescott Lane book because I know she will deliver EPIC books! Her latest The Reason For Me is greater than her last EPIC book and I LOVED Annalyse so much!!

Annalyse is a young writer who is house sitting for her sister because she recently sold her place she had with her husband and her sister is going traveling. The way Ms. Lane shows Annalyse's growth, strength, courage, and choice to be happy was my all time favorite thing about this book! Annalyse's life has had some tragic things happen but she is overcoming them in her own way. She meets Holt is a crazy way and you can tell the level of friendship that could happen would be awesome. But, Holt is closed off and he has his own tragic past he is dealing with in that way all men do, they don't.

My mind was BLOWN when I read many parts of this book that I was not expecting Ms. Lane to take this book that way. I applaud they way you made me feel every emotion they were feeling, when they were happy, aroused, closed off and I was even taken to the dark places when I knew they closed themselves off. I would absolutely love to see this turned into a movie but the level of epic this book emanates I would hate for a director to cut any part of this book out! Thank you for another EPIC book Ms. Lane!

Synopsis

I was light, and I was pure. Until I wasn’t.

Millie
I’m Millie Hart, and for as long as I can remember, I’ve dedicated my life to my Catholic faith. It was a part of me every step of the way. So when I decided to join a nunnery, no one in my family was surprised. I’m not sure at what point my life changed or where it went extremely wrong. My nightmares are becoming realities as my world starts to slowly tremble under the ground I’m presently shackled to. I was taken. Everything I thought I knew was about to rain down on me in drops of lies, deceit, and undiluted evil.

Tripp/Raze
I’m more machine than man. I’m the alpha and the omega of The Army, and the leader of The 6 masked huntsmen. I live and bleed this life. The arms that raised me weren’t carrying love— they were carrying knives and AKs. I’m agent 000, the executioner, and the damn devil who walks in the flesh. No one can break through my hard shell— not even her.

I am still in shock of what I just finished reading! This book just goes to show how incredibly talented and amazing this author is what how she puts exactly what she wants you to see in writing. I envisioned ever single sick detail of what went on during this book that left me so fascinated it scared me. When we last heard from Millie she was just taken from her sister and the Devil's Due MC; what happened to Melissa's nun sister, I for one was terrified to know.

I could tell you about this story in certain details and describe each character but knowing what I know now about the ending and throughout this story just wouldn't give it justice. You need to just know that this was the most twisted story I have ever read, and I absolutely loved every moment. Millie meets Raze/Tripp and her world comes falling down around her to a dark place she won't be able to come out. I am so heartbroken over a certain character in this book and I don't know how things will carry on but I am aching to find out more of this story. You are left in such an heart warming way at the end it left me in tears. I fall more and more in love with this author every new book I read! This book was filled with blood, death, dismembered bodies, sister love, twisted romance, hot sex and even some humor at times. I craved to keep reading each chapter as it would get darker and darker. Thank you Amo Jones for pulling me out of my reading funk and back to life through your darkness!

Wow…just wow! This was my first Julia Sykes read and let me say that it was so freaking hot I could not contain my excitement from my husband! I have read a BDSM before but Ms. Sykes wrote this book in such an amazing way that left me feeling everything Dex wanted Chloe to feel. Ms. Sykes had some twists along with the drama of Chloe and her life. I was overwhelmed with the characters in this book I had to finish it as soon as possible, and it only took me about half a day. Even after reading this incredibly sexy and hot book I still kept thinking about the characters and what they went through and it left me wondering what was next for them. I fell pretty hard for the sexy nerd FBI agent and the way he dominated his sub.

Chloe was a bit of a surprise character for me to read because of what she went through with her past. It was quite interesting reading about her and what she was going through, and fighting against. I at times thought this would turn around and Chloe be the Dom because of her territorial stance in front of her Dom. I loved this book so much in many ways! I loved the writing, the characters and I am grateful for Ms. Sykes because she brought me out of a reading funk! Hero woke me up in more ways than one and I must go back and read this series from the beginning! Congrats to Ms. Sykes on her release of one of the hottest books I have read in a while!

She needs a Dom with heart. He sees the lifestyle as heartless. 

Can a brave submissive show a rock star that accepting his true nature will be nirvana for both of them? Letting go with her may help him put the pieces of himself—and his band—back together again.

Struggling with the death of her mother, Sage Lyndsey turned to her Dom for comfort, but his impatience led to a humiliating scene in front of their club. Devastated, she runs to a small town on the Cali coast. Buying into Citrus Pointe’s bakery may be her best decision ever—if she can overcome the embarrassment of having her new landlord’s dog steal her towel right in front of him. It gets worse when she realizes he’s none other than rock bassist Hank Nash, and despite the problems it would cause, she wants nothing more than his talented hands on her, bending her to his will.

Hank is an ex-cop who knows all too well what dominance looks like when it turns to abuse—he saw the consequences on another cop’s wife. After turning the man in, Hank left that life behind to start a rock band, Weekend Washout. Now he’s fighting to keep the band together, and to deny his urge to dominate pretty, spunky Sage. But when Sage’s ex-Dom reappears, Hank is forced into a life-changing decision: Accept both their needs and gain more than one night with Sage, or retreat to the safe life he’s built so carefully? ​

Ms. Wolfe has the most incredible way to make you feel the emotions and desires her characters have in every book she writes! In some ways this book had a feel of another book but with a very different twist than I thought would happen or even the outcome of the ending of this book. I had very different ideas of what would happen at the end but nothing compares to what Ms. Wolfe writes and leaves you with at the end. Craving for more from each character and even characters you haven’t met yet but hope you will meet in the next book.

Alexis Wilde is a paralegal at a law firm of some very high end lawyers. Alexis keeps to herself, doing what she is told and keeps her head down not to bring attention to herself. She especially keeps to herself while lusting after her very attractive boss Mr. Larkin. She is only seen recently when it comes to the attention of the partners that she has put in for a promotion. Is she ready for what comes with that promotion or will she risk it all and leave the company?

Chase Larkin is of Lark and Gannet and is a very dominant man that pulls at your desires. He built Lark and Gannet but also has The Firm after hours that fully had my attention every time it was mentioned. Chase is pushed by his partners to make a decision he didn’t think he was fully prepared for the repercussions. Only once going through with his decision he never wants to go back.

I absolutely love the way Ms. Wolfe writes a story and pulls me into every part of the storyline and begs for more! I think this is a read for more twisted readers, as me, but what an incredible read! 5 intoxicating stars I found this book by Ms. Wolfe to be!

*I received an Author's Copy in exchange for a honest review!

​Kim Jones is BACK with Clubwhore - the girl every woman loves to hate! Sweetbutt, skank, clubwhore - what every word you choose to use, they are there in the MC world. This is the story of Delilah, clubwhore to the Devil's Renegades. She works there! No really! She bartends, cleans, dances, and is generally at the club's beck and call. She even has her own room. It's hers and it's home. Let everyone look down on her. She doesn't care. She doesn't have to answer to anyone...until Bryce walks in and inadvertently demands her time. 

Holy!! This is the writing I've come to love from Kim Jones. It's alpha times two! Told in first person from Delilah's perspective, it is dirty and raw and beautiful. Take someone who says they don't care about what others think, and usually you'll find someone who is scared of what others think. When you are told repeatedly you are nothing, you begin to feel it, and you become damaged.

I loved this book! Bryce was a good guy.  Yes, he was relentless and demanding, but he slowly broke down the barriers Delilah had in place. Clubwhore is a 5-star read!
