Serena Akeroyd is excited to announce The Last Bachelor Duet. Rex and his First Lady Rachel each get a book in this highly anticipated series finale of A Dark and Dirty Sinners MC Series New Jersey Chapter.
Rachel always thought I was wasting my life on the Sinners, but being Prez is all I’ve ever wanted to be. When she tore us apart on her journey to become someone, I let her go. I made sacrifices for her, because I knew why she had to prove herself. I just didn’t realize that’d involve freezing me out for years. Now, she’s the best criminal attorney in the Tri-State Area, and I’m still Prez—only my world is falling apart. The MC is under scrutiny, our dirty secrets are being laundered in the public eye, and some of my brothers could be facing jail time. Only one woman can stop that from happening. Rachel. She’ll fight for my brothers, but will she fight for us?
RACHEL
It took a death for me to realize a hard truth: I’m not just the Sinners’ lawyer. They’re not just clients. They’re family. But my family is broken, torn apart by politics and dangerous factions who want to control us. It’s no longer enough to stick to the sidelines. It’s not enough to be the face of the law amid the MC. It’s time to ascend. Rex needs his First Lady. It’s time to go to war.
BLURB: If I’ve learned anything while studying at Stonewall University, it’s to steer clear of the Scorpio Society. The powerful few hiding behind this private network do whatever they like. And they will gladly ruin anyone who threatens them. Just ask my friends. I’d like to tell you I made it out unscathed, but my suspension would say otherwise. Now my football career is in jeopardy.
To get back in the coach’s good graces, I decide to hire a tutor. But the girl who answers my ad is distractingly beautiful. And when I learn the secret she’s keeping, it becomes clear we’re both in over our heads. The Scorpio Society isn’t done with me, and now they’ve also set their sights on her. Playing their game is the only way to survive, so I match their deceit with a lie of my own. These privileged predators won’t rest until their darkness and destruction consumes us both. But we’re not going down without a fight.

I’m a stay at home mom that loves to read. Some of my favorite titles are Pride and Prejudice, Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings, and Horatio Hornblower. I started writing when I was trying to come up with suggestions on ways I could help bring in some extra money. I came up with the idea that I could donate plasma because you could earn an extra $500/month. My husband responded with, “No. Find something else. Write a blog. Write a book.” I didn’t think I had anything to share on blog that a thousand other mothers hadn’t already thought of. I decided to take his challenge seriously and sat down to write my first book, Jack. I was surprised at how much I enjoyed writing. From there, the stories continued to flow and I haven’t been able to stop. I hope my readers enjoy my books as much as I enjoy writing them. Between reading, writing, and taking care of three small kids, my days are quite full.

I want to heal all her wounds and show her she’s not broken by what happened to her.

I loved this story and these characters. This was my read of a book by Chantal Fernando, but it will not be my last. I can’t wait for the next book in this series to come out, but I will also be going to purchase the other books in the Wind Dragons MC and the Knights of Fury MC because now I want to know more about those characters. I loved that Decker had to go through an initiation of sorts with the Wind Dragons, but that he was not uncomfortable at all with them. I look forward to more books in Chantal Fernando’s writings and I give this book at 5-star review. I really want a Decker of my own, thanks. He’s sexy, kind, considerate, loyal, and protective.
Wow! I thought the Second Skin books were hot, spicy, sexy, and off the charts! Doubling Down was just as steamy, sexy, spicy and off the charts as well. Ophelia Bell knows how to write steamy books with multiple partners.

She has one more year before she graduates, but she has not been home since the summer she left for college and left the turmoil, memories, guilt, and ghosts of her young adult life.

Little does she know that her life will change again and all that she left is waiting for her to come home. I loved this short, steamy book of a taboo relationship and the need to explore as a young adult. It was a great read and as I have found with Ophelia Bell’s books it was very sexy and steamy. I give this book a 5-star review.
They had a secret that they’ve been keeping from their families and were afraid to admit to anyone that they never stopped loving each other, even after the years apart.

I liked this story of Angel and Nadia; they are both stubborn and can’t figure out that they need each other in their lives to live. Nadia is a fighter, but when she finds herself in danger she hopes and prays that Angel will find her and rescue her. Angel would do anything to find Nadia and when he makes a deal with the devil his future is in jeopardy. Now these two have to find a way. to stay safe and happy. I love the characters and can’t wait to see what kind of deals, trouble, or danger the rest of these Steel Scorpions find when they get snagged by the woman that will bring them to their knees. I give this book a. 5-star review and I am looking forward to the Goose’s story next.

Seeing Aria so defeated and deflated killed me inside. If no one else, she was the one that needed to have hope. I held my hand out for her and she took it, helping herself to her feet, and as I led her into the kitchen, I pulled out a chair for her at the table.
“Sit. You need some food,” I said.
She sniffled and wiped at her eyes. “Shouldn’t you be out there searching with the guys?”
I rummaged around in the fridge. “Once we eat, yes.”
“How can you think about your stomach at a time like this? I’m not even hungry.”
I pulled shit out of the fridge and slapped it onto the kitchen counter. “Can’t save someone on an empty stomach, I always say.”
“Idiot,” she murmured.
I ignored the quip and put sandwiches together. “You know she’s going to be okay, right?”
“I don’t know anything right now,” she said breathlessly.
“Well, she’s going to be. Your sister is strong. She’s always got her wits about her. She’s more capable than a lot of women out there, and the Devil’s Rage aren’t going to know what to do with that.”
“I get what you’re trying to do, and you can stop.”
I slid a plate of food in front of her. “You mean giving you hope so that you don’t drag the rest of us down your rabbit holes?”
“Angel,” Reaper said flatly. “Seriously?”
Aria’s angry gaze snapped up to mine. “I hated you back in high school, and I hate you now.”
I placed a bottle of water in front of her. “And that’s fine, you can hate me all you want. But the best way to help Nadia right now is to stuff down whatever you’re feeling so that you can be productive with us. We need all hands on deck, and that includes yours.”
She slumped into her seat. “It sucks when you guys are right.”
I chuckled as I sat across the table from her. “Now, eat. Get out whatever emotions you need to get out with me. Say whatever it is you need to say. But when we’re done eating? We get to work. Got it?”
“Yeah, yeah,” she said as she reached for her water bottle. “I got it.”
And as we sat there eating in relative silence, I watched as mindless tears dripped down Aria’s cheeks.
“We’re going to find her,” I said.
Her eyes flickered up to mine. “I know we are.”
“We’re going to find her alive.”
And when she swallowed hard, I knew I had hit the nail on the head.
“I sure hope you’re right about that, Angel,” she said softly.
I had to be right. Because if anything happened to Nadia, I would kill them all.
Savannah Rylan is a romance writer that spends most of her time writing and reading with her cat, Gris. When not writing about sexy bikers and the women that love them, you can find her on the beach with a drink in her hand or at the gym testing out some strange new position. Yoga, obviously. She lives in Southern California with her husband and Gris, the true love of her life.
Confused, enraged, ruined—that’s how I felt when she left that day, and it took every ounce of strength I had not to go after her. Our connection was a slow burn.And it had begun to rage. Until she blew out of town, with no warning, completely extinguishing the flames.Now she’s here, standing on the doorstep, holding a piece of me I never knew existed. I should be angry. I should be hurt. But there’s no time for that. Threats have been made, and now it’s up to my team and me to bring down the almost untouchable elite coming after them. I’ve already lost enough time, and I’ll protect them with my life before I go another day without the now most important parts of my world. Our fire is stronger than before. And they’re coming for my family. But we’ll use it to burn them to the ground.
I read lots of books, from mythology retellings to literary fiction and I love to reread books from childhood, this is a place to voice my thoughts for fun. I also like to ramble about things such as art or nature every now and again.
