"There's never been a time I've cared about anything more than my club. Today that all changed. Today I got you."

To truly understand a story; you need to start from the beginning, but to start from the beginning; you have to go back, further than just you. After all, our stories don’t start with us, do they? Our stories start with the person before us, and the person before them. We are created from the stories of those people - from their mistakes, from their achievements, from their love and their hate.

No one’s story is ever truly their own.

I tried to create my own story, my own path, and my own actions. I’ve seen things people only see in their worst nightmares, but I never let it beat me down. I never let it become who I was. I picked myself up, and I kept going. Everything was what it was.

There was no point analyzing what it could be.

Could be’s didn’t matter.

Until Maddox came into the picture. He saved my life. He changed my world; giving me the second chance some of us only dream about. There was only one thing missing in my second chance, and she was the reason I fought so hard to survive.

My sister.

My sister who is supposed to be dead, well, at least, that’s what I thought.

That’s what he told me.

Now is where my story changes, but to understand this story, you have to start at the beginning…where it all began…and before.

This story is the second book in a series. You can get the first book on all major retailers. (Precarious - Jokers' Wrath MC Book 1)

This contains no cliffhanger and has a HEA. 18+

Savaged by Nacole Stayton: Review


Title:  Savaged
Author:  Nacole Stayton
Genre:  Contemporary Romance 18+
Publication Date:  September 12, 2014
Cover DesignSommer Stein

Event Organized by:  Literati Author Services, Inc.


The twist of a knife shredded Niko Kincaid’s world all around him, leaving him with two choices—accept his fate and die, or fight to live.

He chose to fight, but the aftermath became a daily reminder, carved into his once flawless flesh.
Despite years of self-imposed solitude, Niko hungers for companionship and suffers from an aching loneliness that the darkness cannot satisfy. He temporarily soothes his pain with women, hired women, whose only purpose is to service him.  Easy.

He didn’t expect a complication like Cambree Evans, but desperation corrupts even the most innocent.

When emotions blend with lust, will Cambree's softness and ability to look past Niko's flaws be the one thing that releases him from his own personal hell?

Will the monster in the dark prove that his savaged heart is worth saving?



    I will begin by saying that I would totally recommend this book. I'm a huge fan of Nacole and was not surprised I liked this one. Though there was not anything surprising, the story is well told with characters you fall in love with. 

   Cambree has to drop out of college in order to help her grandmother and takes a job that is too good to be true. Niko lives the high life until something happens that causes him to see himself in a different life. While reading I got the feel of Beauty and the Beast...though the Beast is hot and not at all how he sees himself. 

   One of my favorite things about Savaged is that Cambree was a strong woman. She is willing to put herself out there and has no qualms about telling Niko exactly how she feels. And she is willing to look beyond what the rest of the world sees to the man underneath.

Shadowing Me by Crystal Spears

~Available September 22nd~
Shadowing Me
Breakneck Series #3
by Crystal Spears





Welcome back to the world of Breakneck where Pyro continues to mourn the loss of Lana, ZZ’s twins drive him crazy, and the whole MC prepares for the birth of Braxxon and Winter’s child. Things are quiet and calm… Or so it seems.

Shadow’s secrets are slowly being revealed, leaving him powerless to stop the resulting havoc. With Tatiana hot on his trail every time he turns around, the tables have turned, and now, she has become his Shadow.
As Winter and Braxxon begin a hostile takeover of the BDSM club owned by Shadow’s best friend, the unthinkable happens, and the result is the worst bloodshed in Breakneck history. The torture, violence, and death caused by the carnage will have the entire MC reeling from the loss.

When Shadow finally decides to stop denying his feelings for Tatiana, he discovers it may be too late. The Breakneck family loss is far too great for Tatiana to think about her own feelings for the one man who has constantly resisted her.

Causing further drama for the Breakneck crew, the Russians step back into the picture. Whether they are friend or foe remains to be seen. And when Winter gets an unexpected visitor, it throws Tatiana in a fit of rage and rebellion.

Welcome back to the real world of Breakneck… where bloodshed and mayhem are to be expected.





"What are your tastes today, my friend?"

Hmm… "Rose has me yearning for a pale, redhead."

Alec looks around. "Right over there." He nods his head to the left. "Haven’t had her, but I hear good things."

My eyes follow his line of sight until they reach the woman he is referring to. She’ll do. Although her skin is pale, her red hair is definitely not natural. After I finish looking over her body, my eyes go to her left wrist and I smirk. Lovely little, fake redhead, I’m coming for you.

I don’t bother with unnecessary goodbyes as I stalk my way over to her. I need to let some of this frustration loose, and as soon as possible. My demons claw at my chest cavity, begging for release. Her eyes roam my body and, stopping at the leather on my wrist, she nods in acceptance and puts her cigarette out. I don’t wait for her. I don’t have to. She’ll follow. I stroll through the club with confident movements that would make most spectators weak in the knees. I’m a man on a mission.

As I get to my room and dig out my key, the fake redhead comes up behind me. No words are necessary as she waits for me to unlock the door. I nudge it open with my foot, using my hand to gesture her inside first. I am not a complete asshole. I still have some manners.

Once the door is shut and locked, I shrug out of my leather cut and walk over to the closet. I have no patience for clutter. Thankfully, I’ve learned to separate my club from my extra-curricular activities because, let’s face it, some of my brothers are fucking disgusting. After hanging up my cut, I head towards the dresser.

"What shall I call you?" My hands slide along the cold, polished surface. I don’t bother looking at her yet. I’m studying her to see if she is looking for an emotional connection with her scene mate.

"Sunny, Sir."

Good. So far, we are on the same page, but I don’t like to be called Sir. "You’ll address me as Tavis."

"Tavis." She repeats it slowly, making sure she gets it correct.

"Yes, Sunny. Tavis, not Travis." My fingers continue to slowly caress the wood. "Drop your skirt and kick it over."

The sound of her zipper sings in my ears and the demons inside me rustle about. I fling my shades off and dig the contact case out of my pocket. With my back to her, I pinch the blue lenses out of my eyes, and as I place them in their container, her leather skirt lands on the toe of one of my boots. I want her frightened, and what better way to accomplish that than showing her my soulless eyes. "Now, your corset."

"Yes, Tavis." She murmurs.

Her breathing picks up as I unbuckle my pants and toe off my boots and socks.










Crystal Spears has always had a passion for literature. She fell in love with reading at an early age. After spending a decade in business management, she began blogging and book reviewing, only to find that that didn't satisfy her craving. So, she began to write. Like any Indie out there, she had goals and dreams. She wrote Talania - a trip down memory lane, a beautiful, contemporary romance novel. It almost made it to the top, just almost. Someone told Crystal to write what she knew. She gave serious thought to that advice.



For many years, her father had been CEO of a well-known gun and surplus store in Texas. He then bought a tattoo shop where Crystal found herself surrounded by bikers. Hardcore bikers. The Bestselling Breakneck Series was born when Crystal decided to write what she knows. Don't get the wrong idea.



Her Breakneck series is completely fictional, but based on things seen and heard, she now had a place to start writing from that knowledge. Seize Me was hardcore, and Crystal became the writer known as the chick with no boundaries. She took the critics the wrong way and made her next bestseller Withstanding Me a little tamer. Readers were quick to point out that they did not like that and demanded that Crystal return to gritty writing. When asked if she would write gritty from now on, her only answer was... "I'll write what my readers want me to write, and I'll also write what I feel."



Crystal resides in Indiana with her husband and their two children. They have a pit named Dozer, two fish, and one fancy rat. They enjoy the outdoors, and camp, fish, and go boating as much as possible.

Whiskey Lullaby: (Revised and Extended) 
Julie Walker thought she found true love with Jase. Until he betrayed her in the worst way, with one of her best friends. Devastated and heartbroken she runs away, leaving behind her family and friends. She starts a new life filled with secrets. When Julie meets Dean, she thinks he is the answer to all her prayers, but Dean isn’t who she thinks he is. Jase Gibson is a player. Even when he had the girl of his dreams, he still played. When he lost Julie, his life fell apart. He turned to whiskey and women, to fill the void. But, only Julie will ever make him whole. Nine years later, Julie's back home, but she's not alone. What will happen when all of Julie's secrets are uncovered? Jase vowed that if he ever got her back, he would do right by her and never let her go. Will he let Julie's secret keep them apart? When Julie's ex-husband refuses to be her ex, Jase must choose to help her or hang on to his anger. Jase and Julie have to find a way to give their whiskey lullaby a happy ending.

Broken: 
Brandon's wounded; Bethany's broken. Can these two shattered souls heal each other? 

I Hope You Dance: 
Join the Walker and Gibson families as they learn to dance. 


Love Song Series Box Set contains adult situations some readers may find offensive. These stores include explicit sex, foul language, and violence. Not intended for readers under 18.


Whiskey Lullaby was my first experience with Emily Minton and Dawn Martens...but has started a love affair. I was super disappointed for a long time when the goodreads link for the Love Song series said that it was on hold for the foreseeable future. Then they came out with the Renegade books and I was momentarily appeased. Suffice it to say when I heard about the Love Song Set, which has a new and revised edition of Whiskey Lullaby AND the continuation of the story I was basically jumping up and down with joy! 

I have to say that it was worth the wait! It broke my heart that Bethany's story was so much more tragic than we knew, but her with Brandon was everything I could have dreamed of.  

I Hope You Dance couldn't have been more perfect either. I loved the multiple POV, so we got to see where everyone ended up and how their lives were.

EEK!!! There are so many things I want to say, but I have to refrain. Too many spoilers want to pass my lips! Just do yourselves a favor and ONE-CLICK this now! I promise that you will not regret it! <3

Incandescent by River Savage: Review


Title: Incandescent
Series: Knights Rebels MC
Author: River Savage
Genre: MC Romance
Publication Date: August 9, 2014


Phoenix ‘Nix’ Knight thought pulling his club out of the illegal shit his Pops got them into was difficult. 

Until he meets Kadence. 

Kadence Turner has no business lusting over a student’s father, especially the president of the Knights Rebels MC. Nix is crass, obnoxious and dangerously sexy and for some reason, Kadence can’t seem to hate him for it. The bossy biker breaks down her defenses, but unlike the old Kadence, the woman she is today won’t give in without a fight. 

The tension is undeniable, the attraction fierce. A man that wants what he wants and a woman that will fight him every step of the way.


Words cannot express how much I loved this book! After a few hundred MC books you get the feeling you've read all of the story lines before. One of the things I LOVED about Incandescent is that I never got that feeling! Every second it made me want to read it more.

The story starts with a house on fire. Kadence wakes up to a noise that startles her and ends up fighting for her life. Her story is tragic, and I love that she is not only said to be a strong woman, but River Savage writes her that way. Each decision she makes and every action she takes gives a hint into the kind of woman who would not only survive something so tragic, but flourish despite the circumstances.

Nix is the bad ass biker who rolls into her life. His adorable son is a student in her class who is having issues. There is the ex-wife who for some reason feels she should be his only focus and doesn't seem to care much about her son. When the past meets the present Nix and Kadence have a battle to face which could put both their lives at risk.

The secondary characters are full and loveable...kind of ;) It makes me hope that everyone gets their story. Though next up is Kadence's BFF Holly who has her own demons to battle. I can't wait to read her story!

IT'S FINALLY HERE!!!
Dark Kiss
Amy Lynn Garcia
dark kis

Secrets and demons from Evan Lawson’s past pull this strong man to the edge of death where only the whispers of a mysterious voice can penetrate his darkness. 
A young woman dedicating her entire life to her career and family comes face to face with a heart stopping magnetic man who has the power to make all of her dreams come true or completely destroy her. 

Evan is a self made world renowned restaurant mogul who is cold and distant, pushing anyone attempting to enter his life away with intensity. Until the night he hears Mia Galloway’s soft alluring voice calling to him through the murky waters of his unconsciousness. 

Love is a foreign notion that neither Mia nor Evan had ever planned on, in fact both had sworn it off entirely. After going through a horrifying kidnapping at the age of 19 Mia made a conscious decision to never get involved with a man….ever. She has dedicated her life to healing others and loving her family and friends. Evan and his demons from the past have shaped him into the dominant, controlling cruel man he is today. The scars from his childhood run deep and the memories of a tormented mother and a father in denial of his wife’s illness bind him emotionally and make him believe he is incapable of love. 
Evan and Mia are thrown together in the ICU after he drives his car over the edge of a bridge, killing his passenger immediately. Evan was rushed to a private Seattle hospital where Mia is his nurse. She works at drawing him from his coma but has no idea who she is actually summoning. The man who went over the bridge in that car, the man known to his family and co-workers as “The Beast” teeters on the brink of death, ready and willing to make his way to hell. But when he feels the magnetic pull of Mia’s presence, hears her luring whispers, feels the electric voltage of her touch on his skin…..he knows….he’s not going anywhere…..not until he can see the face that belongs to his savior’s voice…..

Kings of Asphalt (Club Chrome) by Alexx Andria: Review & Giveaway

King's of Asphalt photo PicasaKingsofAsphalt_zpsd4fb9b57.jpg
Book Cover photo AlexxAndria_KingsOfAsphalt_1400px_zps1a11a925.jpg 
  Title: Kings of Asphalt (Club Chrome) 
Author: Alexx Andria 
Genre: Steamy romance (Motorcycle club romance)
  Cover by Kim Killion 
Publish Date: June 27, 2014


  USA TODAY BESTSELLING AUTHOR!   Alexx Andria delivers a motorcycle club romance between two very bad, yet sexy men and a woman with enough curves to satisfy them both. 

  My name is Zoe Delacourte. I thought I was going to build my future on the backs of Jax Traeger and Hunter Ericksen -- bad boys from the wrong side of the tracks, running the notorious motorcycle club, the Kings of Asphalt -- in my mind, the story had practically written itself. I was so naive. Little did I know they were going to change everything I ever knew about myself. Jax and Hunter. I can't even say their names without trembling. They don't see a fat girl or a girl who might be pretty if only she'd lose some weight. No, from the moment I walked into their club, they saw a hot, sexy woman with curves for days -- and they couldn't wait to get their hands on me. Some people call them bad men. They see the rides and the rap sheets and they slap a label on them. I don't care what they've done -- all I care about is what they're going to do to me next. But loving them is dangerous. In fact, loving them might just get me killed.

 *The following MC romance is approximately 41,000 words featuring a strong central love story, danger, and the rough, seedy world dominated by two bad boys and their curvy woman.  

  Click Goodreads photo GoodreadsClick_zps920a555c.jpg   


This book was short and sweet. Zoe is a girl on a mission..she wants to stop writing fluff pieces and be a real reporter! Little did she know her live was about to change completely when she walked into the room with Jax and Hunter. As with most MC books you get alpha males, drama, injuries, and suspense. While I enjoyed the book I did feel like the story was a bit rushed and would benefit from being a full novel. That being said I'm keeping my fingers crossed that this is a series. I will be all over the next book like a horny girl on a hot, tatted biker!
