From USA Today best-selling author, Marie James comes the first standalone novel in the Gatlinburg, Tennessee chapter of the Cerberus MC.

This gritty protector romance is filled with emotion, steam, and a man trying to understand how one single person has the ability to change his brain chemistry.

Synopsis:

I might be the first man to join the Cerberus MC and not love it.

Instead of leaving, I bide my time, knowing that I burn every bridge I cross.

When an opportunity plucks me from the desert of New Mexico and transplants me in East Tennessee I feel a little better about the path my life has taken.

The new job isn’t as solitary as I expected it to be.

Instead of doing reconnaissance alone, I’m stuck sitting at a bar, trying to determine if they’re using the business as a human trafficking hub.

Everything would be fine if it weren’t for the bubbly bartender who can’t take a hint.

Doesn’t this woman know what I’m capable of?

She wouldn’t be smiling at me if she had a glimpse into my history.

Maybe giving her the attention she thinks she wants from me is exactly what she needs to start keeping her distance.

My Review: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5 out of 5

He was the one that sat away from everyone else and kept to himself. He didn’t smile, didn’t engage with the other Cerberus MC teammates, and he was the quiet one. When the chance came to go to Cerberus MC, Gatlinburg, TN he wasn’t even one to ask questions. It was the perfect set up for Hemlock, he has no connections and is able to do the job without interference. Or is he?

The first job he is assigned is taking longer than planned or expected and there is more to it than he was prepared for. When he meets the beautiful bartender he should keep his distance, but that is not as easy to do as it should be. He’s drawn to her like no one else and she’s a complication he doesn’t need. He’ll fight the attraction as best he can, but when fate puts her two cents in, no has a chance.

This was the book I’ve been waiting for. Hemlock has been an enigma since he was first introduced and his story was worth the wait. He and Zara are perfect together! Their story is deep, dangerous and secrets are going to come out. Hemlock’s future with Cerberus MC is at stake, and he’s determined to fight for what he wants, but he’s worried that he won’t win. I loved the story, and as with all Cerberus MC books, the characters are great. I can’t wait to read more in this new spin off of Cerbers MC, Gatlinburg, TN.

It’s a long-awaited homecoming…but not everyone’s happy about her return.

You’ll get:
🔥 grumpy sunshine
🔥romantic suspense
🔥small town
🔥former special forces hero
🔥return to hometown heroine

My Review: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5 out of 5

Tilly Taylor wanted to move back home to Misty Peak. It’s the only place that has always felt like home to her. She had to leave due to her father’s choices and the town turning on her. Now she’s back and wants to live her life in the one place she felt the closest to home. However, memories can run long in a small town and people can be cruel.

Kayden Walker loves his mountains and his job, but when Tilly Taylor starts working at the Visitor Center, his job is no longer as enjoyable. He is one of those that has a long memory about how things went when her father was around. He has a hard time trusting due to all of the loss in past. Now he has to find a way to trust and accept Tilly back in Misty Peak.

I loved this story, it was full of tragedy, danger, and wonderful characters that have to find a way to forgive even if they can’t forget. The sins of the father should not be put on the child. I look forward to more in this series to come.

This entire series is centered around the five Walker brothers.

My Review: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5 out of 5

Another great addition to the RBMC series and the Jacksonville, FL chapter. Highway and Gwen are great together and I loved their story.

Gwen is the sister to Lucy and a photographer that sells her photos and stories to well known publications. While working with the Jacksonville, FL chapter RBMC she is caught in the crosshairs of a rivalry and danger. She’s not the type to run and hide though. She’s curious and used to dangerous situations, so she gets herself in more trouble with her curiosity than anything.

Highway is the road captain for the Jacksonville, FL chapter of the RBMC and he finds himself wanting more with Gwen than he’s used to wanting. Not the type of man to date or spend a lot of time with one woman, he discovers that Gwen is different and he’s ready to explore what they could have. His first priority though, keep her safe and protected. That seems to be more work than it should be though.

I loved this book and the characters. The RBMC books have been some of my favorite reads since they came out and they continue to keep me coming back for more.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Grey’s Rescue Review (Siobhan D.) – “This book has action , emotions and plenty of heat.”

One broken military man. One veterinarian. And the compassion that ignites into passion.

Former Navy SEAL Ollie O’Brien can’t deal with being sidelined and discharged. His military career was his greatest accomplishment. And now, he’s flailing and fumbling as he searches for purpose in a world that doesn’t seem to value him at all. And when his sister lands him a job in North Carolina, Ollie is reluctant to accept.

Veterinarian Paisley Smythe is in over her head. She needs help with her choices in life, and she’s striking out left and right. But when a friend reaches out with an idea, she meets the one man that could be the saving grace that she’s needed all along. However, the rugged, handsome, and broken man may need her more than she needs him.

As Paisley and Ollie work together caring for the animals and saving the clinic, something sparks between them. Ollie’s injuries force him to believe he’s not enough for Paisley. And Paisley’s past demons destroy her confidence in relationships. Can they both find a way to heal in one another’s arms?

**Readers, please note: This book was previously published in 2022 as Survivor: A Salvation Society Novel. Content has been modified. **

 

One former military hero. One wildlife lover. And the animals who saved them both.

Relatively new to the Blue Sky Sanctuary, Grey Nottingham is desperately trying to find his bearings in a world he knows nothing about. Still reeling from a mission that crashed and burned out of his control, Grey searches for solace in a safe haven that specializes in the struggles that former military heroes face. But when he encounters a beautiful, determined, and compassionate woman who will do anything to protect the Montana wildlife, Grey suddenly knows his purpose.

Abigale Styeeks loves nature–and after finishing college, she’s dedicated her life to defending innocent, protected wildlife–even if it means bringing danger to herself. When the gorgeous and tortured Grey Nottingham brings her tortured wolves, Abigale launches an all-out mission to save them. Despite her efforts, the ranchers will stop at nothing to destroy the wildlife that threatens their livelihoods. Now, battling the ranchers and saving the animals being hunted becomes Grey and Abigale’s new mission. Teaming up, the two find more than the answers to protect the endangered animals. Grey makes it his mission to protect Abigale and the wildlife from the vicious ranchers. But, will they end up rescuing Grey from his own personal demons?

My Ollie’s Recovery Review: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5 out of 5

Such a great start to this new series. I’ve enjoyed reading about Ollie and Pixie since I’ve been reading the Devil’s Handmaidens MC and am so happy to get to read their story. It’s both heartbreaking and beautiful. There are so many that are struggling with mental illness from being in the service and this book really brings it out into the open.

Ollie and Pixie are on a great road to help so many that need it and I can’t wait to see how this goes for them and their “family”.

I love the characters that D.M. Earl writes as she truly brings out their character and their souls in her stories. I am excited to go on this trip with her and the characters of the Blue Sky Sanctuary.

My Grey’s Rescue Review: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5 out of 5

Great story, but have the tissues on hand when you read this book. Like Ollie’s Recovery, this book hits on a variety of issues with veterans and their recovery. It’s a great read, but very emotional. Grey is fighting to be “normal” again after his time in the service, and Abigail is looking to help her mother and younger siblings heal, but they will all have to fight to keep the most vulnerable safe.

I loved this story and the characters are great! It was a beautiful story of finding what love means after such horrific encounters while serving our country. D.M. Earl brings her characters and her stories to life with her writing. She writes about tough situations, but she does it in a way that you are educated about the issue and yet are entertained by her story.

It not only brings out trust issues with humans, but animals as well. I love how she shows her characters vulnerabilities as well as their strength in her stories. I can’t wait to read more of her books in all of her series.

Blurb:

The first lesson my father ever taught me was that power is the only currency, loyalty is the law, and always take what you want.

When the Mayor of our city begs me to keep his precious daughter safe, I seize my chance to strengthen the DeLuca hold on the town.

I’ll keep her safe, but it’ll come at a price.

Mia Gordan, the sheltered heiress, must become my wife.

She’s a stranger to our brutal world.

A symbol.

A means to an end.

A strategic move, nothing more.

But as I draw her into my shadowed life, shielding her from the ghost of our fathers’ past, I realize she’s more than a pawn. Every defiant glare, every whispered challenge stirs something dark and hungry within me. She’s an enigma, a mystery wrapped in innocence and hidden depths.

Protecting Mia becomes more than duty; it’s a burning need. The deeper we dive into the lies that bind her family to mine, she becomes more than just my wife in name. Mia’s the unexpected light in my dark world.

But can love be our salvation in a life built on blood and deceit, or will buried secrets destroy it all?

Dario: Savage Bloodline is an interracial (BWWM), forced marriage, age-gap, mafia romance that is a gripping tale of love, loyalty, and survival in a world where nothing is as it seems.

My Review: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4 out of 5

Both authors were new to me. I loved the story and the characters were great! Secrets are revealed, danger is lurking and lust turns into love in this story.

I loved Dario and Mia together. She’s been brought up to show her strength and always be aware of where she is and who she is around. Mia is the daughter of the town Mayor and is in need of being protected, so her father seeks help from Dario, but his payment for protecting her may be too high for the Mayor.

This was a great story and I look forward to reading more from this author duo. I kind of want to go back and read all of the books in the Savage Bloodline now, but my TBR is so long already…not sure I should add past ones right now, but I hope to read more in the future.

I’m a killer, I do it for fun, a way to quell the blood thirstiness that lives inside me.

No one has ever been able to penetrate the walls around my blackened heart.

Except her. Jessica Grace.

I met her at the lowest point in her life.

I saw the depths of despair that shone brightly in those blue eyes.

Begging for help, pleading for solace.

It was at that moment that I found the one.

My one.

But she’s too young, too innocent to be tainted by my darkness.

So I stay away until fate brings us back together.

Now, she’s hurt, and I’ll do anything to protect her.

No one touches what’s mine and lives to tell the tale.

I’m the Eraser.

Once I’m done with my prey, they simply cease to exist.

No traces of them are ever left behind.

Vengeance is all I crave.

I’m ready to start a war with the man who hurt my wife. Nothing will stop me.

I’ll do everything it takes to keep her safe.

My love. My wife. My everything.

My Review: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5 out of 5

This was the book that I didn’t know I needed to read. While Brooke Summers books are usually dark, this one took it to a whole new level. After meeting Stephen in previous books and the Eraser as well, I knew that this could be a dark book, but I didn’t realize how dark it could get. Not that I’m complaining. It was a balance of dark, twisted, and sweet. Stephen gives a new level of touch her and die vibes.

Stephen meets Jessica on the roughest day of her life, but he finds himself drawn to her. He knows she’s too young and sweet for him, but he’ll only say away for as long as he can and then all bets are off. Especially when he finds her hurt. Now he’ll make those that hurt her pay for it and he’ll claim her as his and protect her forever.

I loved this story. As with all of the books I’ve read by Brooke Summer’s, the MFC is strong, beautiful and resilient. Jessica may not be as ruthless as some of the other women in the family, but she is strong and resilient and she’ll become stronger with Stephen by her side. I love the characters in Brooke Summers books and I can’t wait for more in this series or her others. Always a great read.
