Everyone belongs somewhere. Even the misfits.
With the looming threat from the Mancuso Crime Family, the Forsaken Motorcycle Club is preparing for a war that could destroy them. Grady, the club’s Sergeant-at-Arms, knows that love makes you weak, and he has zero interest in adding to his liabilities– especially now. He’s already got his teenage daughter who keeps him on his toes and a beef within the club that could fracture his relationship with a fellow brother for good.
For Holly Mercer, her life is finally getting on track and the last thing she wants is trouble from her hometown’s resident outlaws. Keeping her nose clean is easier said than done, when suddenly she finds herself embroiled in club business. Holly might like the idea of being with a real-life bad boy, but even being in the same room with tough-as-nails Grady flusters her.
When Holly inadvertently finds herself on Mancuso’s radar, she has two choices: trust that Grady will protect her, or continue to refuse the club’s help. Both roads are dangerous, but only one has the chance to damage her beyond repair.
Love is never more dangerous than when it can destroy you.

AVAILABLE ALSO:
RIDE (Bayonet Scars, No. 1)
Death comes in Armani. Salvation comes in leather.
Principessa to the Mancuso crime family, Alexandra knows a thing or two about living outside the bounds of the law. Suffocated by the future her father has laid out for her, she makes a choice she can't take back, changing the entire trajectory of her life.
Thrust into the dark and dangerous world of the Forsaken Motorcycle Club for her own protection, Alex finds herself faced with the last thing she needs right now: the man of her dreams. He’s sex in leather, the devil incarnate, and one hell of a kisser. But he’s also off-limits. Ryan Stone can be her friend, but he’s forbidden to be her lover.
Third-generation Forsaken, Ryan knows nothing other than life on two wheels, and he wouldn’t have it any other way. He enjoys the many privileges that come with the patch, and the only laws he recognizes are the ones set-forth by his club. That is, until who he wants more than anything isn’t allowed on the back of his bike —or in his bed. Balancing his desire for her body, and need to keep her safe, Ryan tries to keep Alex at a distance. Finally having made a choice for herself, she’s done hearing the word “no” and will push boundaries even Ryan himself doesn’t dare cross.
Love is never more tempting than when it’s forbidden.
* Now with bonus content: Featuring never-before released prologue, epilogue, and two bonus chapters in Ryan's point of view. Plus, a sneak peek at Thrash (Bayonet Scars, No. 2)! *

THRASH (Bayonet Scars, No. 2)
Loneliness suffocates the heart. Acceptance breaks down walls.
As a Lost Girl to the Forsaken Motorcycle Club, Nicole Whelan knows how to party. She’s not cut-out for relationships and her life is way too complicated for anything more than casual encounters. But one night when she falls into Duke’s bed at the clubhouse, he sees something in her that he can’t let go of—no matter how many times she tries to run.
Having been left to raise her teenage brother, Jeremy, she’s already got her hands full and isn’t looking for anymore complications. But Duke’s just watched his best friend fall for the only girl he couldn’t have, and then almost lose her so shortly after, shaking him to his core. Faced with his own loneliness, he’s more determined than ever to break down Nic’s walls and show her that he can be good for her; but he’s got a bad track record and she’s got a bad temper. Changing his ways isn’t easy when he’s not sure what he’s even changing for.
The violence and turmoil are at an all-time high, and Forsaken is in a vulnerable place when a twist of fate breathes new life into the club. It’s a much-needed beacon of hope for the embattled biker family, even if everyone’s not exactly on board. With Duke and Nic’s relationship already on shaky ground, and something even more important at stake, the Forsaken Motorcycle Club will fight like hell to keep their family together and whole.
Love is never more precious than when it’s new.
COMING SOON:
Young love is always
perfect. Until it's not.
Cheyenne Grady is a
total daddy's girl to her bad-ass father, the Sergeant-at-Arms of the Forsaken
Motorcycle Club. She's funny, and kind, and she just wants that deep,
earth-shattering love like her dad has with her school secretary, Holly. But
Cheyenne's been looking in the wrong direction, because the only good that can
come from the way she looks at Jeremy Whelan is a lesson in heartbreak.
Jeremy always wanted
to prospect for the Forsaken Motorcycle Club and wear the same patch as his
father. When a life-long dream becomes reality, Jeremy realizes that the outlaw
lifestyle is not for the faint of heart. Nor is it easy on relationships. He
wants to be a good man, but temptation is everywhere.
Cheyenne is beautiful,
and strong, and exactly what Jeremy could have forever. As long as he doesn't
screw it up.
Love is never more powerful than the first time.
Let me start by saying that I am a huge fan of this series!!! I remember when I first read the synopsis for Ride I thought the idea of a biker gang and the mob could never work. Boy did JC prove me wrong! Rev is the third book in the Bayonet Scars series and they MUST be read in order! If you just jump into Rev you will have no idea what is going on half of the time. We've met Grady in the previous books, but I never knew there was so much to him. He is seriously a douche most of the time, but I found myself unable to protect my heart from him. There are only two things that really matter to him...the club and his daughter. Cheyenne is the girl her father raised her to be. Kind of a b@tch lol
When we meet Holly it is hard to picture her as an Old Lady, and the fun is getting to see her struggle to get there. She and Grady butt heads at every turn. I love that she makes him work for it. This book gives you everything we've come to expect from JC. Action, romance, and bullets flying! We get to see more of the characters we've come to love in the previous two books, and get a glimpse of what is to come. After seeing Cheyenne and Jeremy interact I cannot wait to get my hands on Crush. And please if there is a higher power make JC write a story for Ian!!!!! Yet another 5 star read :) Get ready to Rev your engines and go on the ride of a lifetime ;)
“We need to have a talk,” he says in the quietest way possible. I
try to nod, but his grip kind of immobilizes my head.
“Okay,” I whisper. He turns us just slightly and slowly walks me
backward. It’s awkward, walking like this, with his feet practically stepping
all over mine, and me being unable to see where I’m going, much less the path
we’re taking. A shadow falls over as we enter the small nook around the corner
from the hall that leads down to Mr. Beck’s office. I hit a hard surface that I
recognize as the door to the janitor’s closet, and Grady stops, now absolutely
flush against me. I breathe slightly easier knowing that Margot can’t see us
from her desk, because whatever is happening here is plenty embarrassing
without having to re-live it via the gossip chain He’s much larger in such
close proximity, with his entire body resting against mine and his hand
cradling my neck. Slowly, he tilts my neck so that I’m forced to face him.
“You threw twenty-five grand out of a moving vehicle,” he says.
“I’m crazy,” I say immediately. He smashes his lips together,
which distracts me from the whole intense eyeball thing he’s got going on. His
lips part and he pulls in a deep, shuttered breath. I try to form a coherent
sentence, but it’s difficult. He’s kind of intoxicating in this small space.
“You make me crazy.”
“Why don’t we just get this out of the way, huh?” he says quietly.
“I want to taste your pussy.” My face heats at the thought of him putting his
tongue to a good use for once. Pressure builds in my head, and it’s only then
that I realize I’ve stopped breathing.
“You see that—that nervous excitement you’re feeling? I’m under
your skin. You don’t have to like it, but I’m there,” he says so quietly it
comes out as a whisper. He reaches out with his free hand and strokes my arm
with a single finger. His touch is light, but it sends chills down my spine.
“Something you should know about me, babe. I don’t go into shit blind. You
think I don’t know you, but I do. I know every asshole who’s been inside of
you, I know every place you’ve called home—even the places you don’t want me to
know about. I know the way you like your coffee, and I know how you think. The
shit I don’t know, you’ll tell me. Eventually, I’m going to know every dirty
little part of you, and if you think I make you crazy now, just wait until I
bury my dick inside you.”
As a child, JC was fascinated by things that went bump in the night. As they say, some things never change. Now, as an adult, she divides her time between the sexy law men, mythical creatures, bad-ass bikers, and kick-ass heroines that live inside her head and her Netflix addiction. JC is a San Francisco Bay Area native, but has also called both Texas and Louisiana home. These days she rocks her flip flops year-round in Northern California and can't imagine a climate more beautiful. Her dream is to own her own Harley and she feels compelled to tell you that she is Team Peeta all the way.
JC is the author of the Men with Badges series, The Birthright Series, and the Bayonet Scars series.
