BLURB

My entire world shattered in an instant.
One phone call was all it took.
Whatever triumph we felt in taking down the Governor was short-lived.
Because the Rojas Cartel was already rising from the ashes.

If we thought we’d won by wiping out Rico Rojas, we were dead wrong. His nephew isn’t just carrying the mantle—he’s rewriting the legacy of the Rojas name by gutting everything we’ve built from the inside out.

Now we’re being torn apart at the seams. Clover and Phoenix are forced to flee to Vegas, Valerie’s fighting for survival in prison, and Alpha is drowning in a tsunami of emotions that threatens to pull him under. We’re surrounded, outnumbered, and running out of options.

My only hope lies in a rogue bird who should have been set free when I liberated the Nest. But she’s working for Rojas. For the enemy. Nighthawk might have blood on her blade, but she could be the key to bringing down the Cartel once and for all. Trusting her means risking everything on the belief that birds of a feather truly do flock together.

With families ripped apart and war erupting on all sides, I have to tap into the darkest parts of my training. Because when everything you love is at stake, it’s not just about survival—it’s about believing that in the end, Defiance will come out victorious.

From USA Today Bestselling Author K E Osborn comes the highly desired Fifth book in the LA Defiance MC Series.

This is a high-stakes, enemies-to-allies, forbidden love romance, featuring birds trained to kill, underground cartel operations, and Defiance fighting for their lives. This is Part I of a two-part conclusion to the series.


TRIGGER WARNING

My Review: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5 out of 5

I both hated and loved this book! It’s going to be a tough ride all the way through it.

I love the Defiance MC characters in all chapters. They’re loyal, strong, and lethal. The LA Defiance has some badass women and they are just as strong and lethal as the men. Victorious is going to try all of the characters in the LA Defiance and it’s going to be brutal.

Clover and Wes are headed to Vegas for Clover’s social media work with Wes “Phoenix” will have their own battles to fight, but their minds will be in LA on their families as well. They’ll be tugged in two directions during this ride. I loved this book and can’t wait to read the next one, but I’m also scared to read it.

It’s time for another Saint’s Outlaws new release!

Her scars make her beautiful. My rage makes her safe.

Ruger

The moment I laid eyes on Tildie—the most luscious curvy bartender in town—I knew she’d be mine.

As President of Saint’s Outlaws MC, I’ve built my reputation on protecting what belongs to me. And from the second I saw Tildie nervously tucking that strand of hair behind her ear, something primal inside me claimed her.

She’s got secrets. Demons that haunt her. And an ex who wants her back.

Too f****ing bad.

Because I’ve spent my life dealing with men who think they can take what’s mine. Her ex doesn’t know it yet, but he’s already a dead man walking.

Tildie thinks she’s broken beyond repair, but she hasn’t seen what happens when a man like me decides to fight for what he wants.

I’ll tear apart anyone who tries to hurt her—even if I have to choke the life from them with my bare hands.

It’s Here! Unraveled is LIVE!!

If you love:
✔️ Enemies-to-lovers tension
✔️ Fake relationship chaos
✔️ Small-town romantic suspense
✔️ A protective fire chief with a soft side
…then Unraveled is for you.

He’s her neighbor…her enemy…so why has she told everyone he’s her boyfriend?

Sky Williams has a neighbor from hell. Every day, Becket finds a new way to torture her. Sometimes it involves cutting trees on her property line; other days—most days—it includes using an annoying nickname he knows she hates. It’s safe to say she can’t stand the guy. So why then, when her parents persistently try to set her up with one of their church friends, does she find herself blurting out that she’s dating Becket?

Retired Navy SEAL Becket Hayes has a great life. His family is amazing, he’s the fire chief of Amber Ridge—a job he loves. And more recently, he’s found unexpected joy in fighting with his cute but easily riled neighbor. She seems to take offense in his very existence. So when she publicly declares Becket as her boyfriend, he’s intrigued enough to play along. It’s just meant to be for show, but the longer they “date”, the less fake it feels.

When a string of seemingly unconnected incidents occur, putting Sky’s life in danger, Becket suddenly has even more reason to remain close. It appears there are parts of her past that refuse to be left behind. And someone determined to ensure Sky has no future—with or without Becket.

A Small Town, Enemies to Lovers, Fake Relationship, Romantic Suspense from Bestselling Author Nyssa Kathryn.

My Review: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5 out of 5

I loved these two! Great chemistry, story, and characters in this book. The neighborhood will never be the same again.

Becket and Sky fight daily about something. Becket is the instigator on most days. He’s the fire Chief of Amber Ridge, a firefighter, retired Navy SEAL, and the bane of Sky’s existence on a daily basis. He is only trying to keep her safe from the danger lurking in their town, but he goes about it in the worst way. He’s like the little boy at school that pulls the girls ponytail because he likes her but doesn’t know how to show it.

Sky came back home to escape the tragedy that she lived through in Wyoming, but now it seems that her bad luck has caught up to her. When things begin to happen to her in her home town, Becket is determined to keep her safe and protect her, but will he be in time?

I love all of Nyssa Katheryn’s books and how they seamlessly move from one series to the next with great characters and stories. I love her character and can’t wait for the next book in this series. It’s going to be awesome!

4 ⭐’s for One Night Collision – The Bellhaven Hotties, Book #8 by Laramie Briscoe and Chasity Bowlin

My Review: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4 out of 4

Damien is a lawyer that surprises everyone. He’s the son of a rancher but lives the life of a lawyer, for the most part. He’s good at what he does and he may come off as arrogant, but it’s just the confidence in his ability to gain what his clients want.

Maggie is a woman that is cautious and has walls around her. She’s divorced and that divorce did not turn out favorable for her. Her dealings with Damien cause her to be cautious and standoffish, but he has a way of breaking down her barriers.

I loved this book in the Bellhaven Hotties series. As usual, the characters were great and fun to read. This was a quick read, but full of great characters and a wonderful story. I look forward to more in the series to come from these two great authors.

Midnight

The best and the worst thing happened to me when I was nineteen.
I became the father to two beautiful twin girls, but it tied me to their mother.
I never thought I would trust a woman again until I met her.
Lainey.
She’s everything I should stay away from. Young, gorgeous, and comes with a lot of baggage.
Not only does she work at my tattoo shop, but she is also my twin’s nanny.
So why can’t I leave her alone?

Lainey
My only goal in life is to survive.
When I walked into the Lotus MC club that night, that was the only thought on my mind.
I had no idea what I was getting into until I met him.
Midnight.
Not only is he offering me a life raft, but there’s more to him than the grumpy persona he puts on.
When his life is thrown for a loop, I offer to jump in and help him.
Afterall, he is my attractive boss who I owe my life to.

My Review: 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 5 out of 5

Betrayal, secrets, deceit, and danger all in one dark, page-turning book.

Midnight was trapped, but he loved his girls. He would do anything for them. He’s done with women though after the mother of his twin daughters shows her true colors and leaves Midnight hurting and worried that he won’t see his girls enough.

Lainey is a young woman that is willing to find a way to survive, but when she takes the advice of her roommate, that is not her friend, she finds herself in a situation that she would never intentionally go into. When the leather wearing biker comes over and guides her to the couch he’s sitting on, she’s not sure what he wants. When Midnight explains things to her and tells her that he’s only trying to protect her, she relaxes, a little.

Midnight and Lainey have both been deceived and betrayed, now they are both trying to find their way to the HEA they both deserve.

I love the characters in this series and Midnight’s story was just a great as the others. I can’t wait to read more of the Lotus MC books to come.

Riot is LIVE! Here’s my Review of – Riot – Untamed Sons MC, Birmingham Chapter, Book 2 by Jessica Ames

  • Single mother
  • “His girls”
  • Slow burn tension
  • Emotional wreckage meets obsession
  • Possessive hero
  • Age gap
  • Grumpy hero
  • Fierce survivor heroine
  • “Touch her and die”
  • He falls first
  • He falls HARD
  • Found family
RIOT
I never expected to be fighting a war with my club, but there is no choice. We have to fix the things that are broken and to do that, lines will need to be crossed. No one sees me as a threat, but I have my ear to the ground, gathering anything that will help my brother and Nicky to dethrone our president. The last thing I should be doing is fantasizing about a woman, particularly one as off limits as Ivy. She’s too young and been through hell. If I were a good man, I’d leave her alone, but I’ve always been the villain and I can’t walk away from her, not even for my brother. Ivy is mine and I’m not giving her up.
IVY
Raising my daughter has been my only priority. I blocked out my trauma, buried my demons and focused on being a mother, but when my past comes back to haunt me, I find comfort from the one person I didn’t expect. Riot has never shown an interest in me like that until one reckless moment changes everything.
This is a dark romantic story with a guaranteed happily ever after. It does have some strong language, graphic violence and content that might be triggering.

My Review: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5 out of 5

A great addition to the Birmingham Chapter.

Riot and Ivy’s story doesn’t start out with the typical love and romance of a pair, but it works it’s way there and Ivy finds her place in the family again as well as a way to move forward from her tragic past. Riot is right there to help her and show her that she’s important, is lovable, and is a strong, independent woman that deserves happiness and a full family.

Ivy just needs for her immediate family to let her live her life and not keep secrets from her that are causing her pain and suffering.

I loved this story and I can’t wait for the next book in the Birmingham Chapter of the Untamed Sons MC.

Review of Nolan – Broken Falls, Book 7 by Laramie Briscoe – Available Now!

My Review ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4 out of 5

I have been waiting for Nolan’s story since he was first introduced and it did not disappoint.

Nolan the single dad of the younger group. He is raising his little princess on his own and runs his own business. The nanny he hires to help out with his daughter opens his eyes to what could be if he’d cross the imaginary line of employer/employee, but he’s afraid to ruin the good that is his life right now.

Annabelle has her own desires that she’s fighting. One night out with the girls has her thinking of showing Nolan how it could be with the two of them if they’d both just let down their walls and let the attraction take hold.

I enjoyed the book and I loved the story. As with all of the books in the Broken Falls series, I love the characters too.

Trace Miller

I had one ticket out of the suffocating expectations of my powerful Montana ranching family: an escape from the arranged marriage my father had decreed.

But my rebellion takes an unexpected turn when my younger brother steps in to take my place at the altar.

It’s my freedom – until tragedy strikes, and the weight of responsibility crashes down harder than ever.

Katie Brown

I was raised knowing my future wasn’t my own. Promised to a Miller to unite two land-rich dynasties, I steel myself for a loveless union. A stolen night of anonymity offers a fleeting taste of my own freedom before I’m expected to say “I do.”

In the close-knit world of Azure Ridge, Montana, fate has a twisted sense of humor. The land merger demands a marriage, and now, amidst grief and family pressure, Trace finds himself bound to me, the very woman he shares a scorching secret with.

Our marriage is anything but convenient, fraught with unspoken desires, family secrets, and the undeniable chemistry that ignites whenever we’re together.

Can this marriage of necessity blossom into a genuine connection, or will the weight of our families’ expectations and our own tangled pasts tear us apart?

My Review: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4 out of 5

The second book in The Azure Ridge Series and it was just as good as the first one. There were so many emotions in this book and it started off wreaking havoc on my emotions.

This book had some twists and turns in it, but in the end Trace and Katie found common ground and were able to make a life together. The Miller’s and the Brown’s are well known and have money or land that created their notoriety. The happy, loving family in each household is a front, and have caused the insecurity, mistrust, and controversies that arise with Trace and Katie.

I enjoyed the story and I look forward to more in the series by Selena Sanders.

My Review: ⭐⭐⭐✨ 3.5 out of 5

Total Carnage is a book with twists and turns and unexpected outcomes. While I enjoyed the book and the characters, there were a few parts that were a little off for me.

The characters were great and I loved that Ghost was back with a vengeance and wanted to fine Raven with no worries about what could happen to him. I would have liked to have more information/introduction of Ghost with the RBMC. It was like he met Jameson and then he was just a Royal Bastard.

In some parts of the story it seemed as though they happened after an initial part should have happened. It was a bit confusing in some parts, but I’m looking forward to reading more of the Lexington, KY chapter of the RBMC.
