SYNOPSIS
Ashley
With marriage, there are things you can and can’t live with. Harry, my abusive husband, made that clear enough when he beat me like a dog, forced a miscarriage on me, and tried posing me as a hostage to my father’s notorious biker gang, The Reapers. I was lucky enough to get out of my marriage in one piece but it’s only a matter of time before he picks up my trail and hunts me down. Blackjack––swears he’ll kill him the second he steps foot in town. I know he means well but there’s something about his stare when he tells me I deserve better. A part of me wants to believe I deserve someone like him and yet my bruises are telling me never to trust another man again. But Blackjack isn’t like any other man. Is he?
Blackjack
When I enlisted into the army, I didn’t think I’d have anything or anyone to lose––except for her. Ashley Monroe, the blonde wild-child of Montana’s Reapers MC. It shouldn’t have been a surprise when I came back home years later to find out that she left town and ended up married. Life went on of course and I was fortunate enough to have Dex, a son of my own. Three years later, Ashley came back beaten and broken from her marriage. I’ve never wanted to kill a man so bad in my entire life. Just one look at her and I’m drowning with the urge to hold her in my arms and tell her that she’s safe with me, truly. Sometimes I wonder if there’s still enough strength in both of us for a second shot in life.
REVIEW
This is the first book I have read from this author and let me just say this will NOT be the last. . What an intriguing, consuming book! Oh my…this author surprised me in such a good way.
The beginning was a little slow for me but by the time I got to the end of this book, I was loving it! Some very angsty moments.
“Ashley Monroe married to an abusive man, her husband also happens to be a member of her father’s rival gang. After being badly beaten, Ashley finally finds the courage to flee her unforgiving life
MC storyline that was action packed, suspenseful, entertaining and had biker hotness.
I found the style of writing very atmospheric. I felt like I had stepped into an alternate reality where the real world was just a hand’s reach away,
I loved this story. I think what made this a 5 star book for me was Blackjack . HE IS HOT! There's a real beauty, polish, and purpose to the way the story is unfolding.
I can’t wait to see what is to come with this MC and which of the guys is next!
