Monica has one mission, and that is to expose the monster who destroyed her sister’s life. No distractions. No compromises. And definitely no falling for the lethal, sinfully gorgeous Dark Guardian now shadowing her every move.

Kane lives for the hunt, lots of women, and no attachments. But the moment he tastes Monica’s fire, he wants more—wants all of her—no matter how hard she pushes back. She’s sharp-mouthed, stubborn, and inconvenient as hell… and he can’t get enough.

But someone is watching. Someone who knows the truth Monica is chasing and will kill to keep it buried.

Now Kane has a walk away like he always does…or burn the world down to protect the only woman who makes him forget every rule he lives by.

Kane Teresa Gabelman

I was given this book by the author for an honest review.

I am a huge fan of the series, but I admit this book was a little hard to follow along with.  I had to go back and refresh myself with the previous book.  I am  huge fan of the series but it is getting so long and we have so many characters to follow along with and remember it is getting tough.

Kane helping the VC Warrior but is a Dark Guardian. He is interested in finding out about Golden Blood that is being whispered about.  His journey to discover it has led him to be a bodyguard for the woman he cant stop thinking about.

Monica has been looking for her sister.  She is devastated to find her dead but will not give up until she uncovers the truth.

When the 2 join up to find out what is going on the begin to appreciate the other.  They have some chemistry, Steve makes us all laugh, Becky has some secrets and Sloan is not sure what to do.

I love the series and will keep reading,  I really need Becky to be ok!!

Leave a comment

As a VC Warrior, King has spent a lifetime protecting those who can’t defend themselves. Easygoing, fiercely loyal, and deadly when crossed, he’s the one you want at your back when the fight turns brutal. Friends love him. Enemies fear him. When someone dares to threaten the ones he cares about, King doesn’t just fight; he destroys. But this time, it’s not just any fight. Now, it’s personal.

Amara Tarvin has spent months trapped in fear, fleeing from unseen enemies lurking in the shadows. When her nephew befriends a VC Warrior, a spark of hope flickers in the darkness—a chance for safety, maybe even freedom. But hope can be dangerous when the ones hunting her will stop at nothing to possess what runs through her veins.

A new threat looms over the VC Warriors and Dark Guardians—Golden Blood. Their enemies have uncovered a sinister these rare humans can be turned into deadly weapons, powerful enough to take down one of their own or…save them. The hunt has begun.

Here

I absolutely love this series!! I have been a fan since she released book 3 so I have been here for the long haul.
King has been a fun character to get to know through the series. I always wondered who his mate would be, and Amara is the perfect person especially since she is Joey’s aunt aka King’s friend.
This series we get a lot more Realm information and maybe see a possible new fear for Daniel and also maybe a MATE??? I kinda wanna know more about her. But back to King…..King and Amara have amazing chemistry and the fact that Joey is down with his aunt and his friend is even better.
We learn about Golden Blood and how not good this is but could be good but right now it is not good. LOL There is always a new story line or plot that Teresa gives to us to keep the series fresh. I mean 28 book in a series is a lot but trust me when I say it is an amazing series to jump into. There are so many things in the storyline that I can’t wait for the next warrior book and also the Mate’s book because Becky has some stuff going on and your girl needs to know ASAP!

MC, Opposites Attract

#MC #Reread #oppositedattract #enemiestolovers #audio – Innocent Ride, The Hellions book 5 by Chelsea Camaron

Leave a comment

She is a corporate accountant. Her life is full of structure, routine, and organization. Settled, comfortable, and content, Caroline Milton loves knowing what to expect every minute of every day. More importantly, she loves knowing her life is what she pictures it to be and not where she came from.

He is the Catawba Hellions’ VP and a wild one, refusing to be tamed. His motto-“hit it, get it, and go; no repeats”-guarantees a new woman in his bed nightly. His life, though, suddenly tilts on its axis when his wild days come barreling back with a major responsibility.

When a situation quickly spins out of control at work for Caroline, she reaches out to the one group she least expects to find herself dependent upon – the Hellions Motorcycle Club. When asked as a personal favor from Doll to protect her best friend, Rex can’t refuse.

Protecting Caroline was supposed to be an innocent task. However, the attraction from their first meeting is a fire burning strongly inside them both. Neither can deny the pull, despite the fact that they come from different worlds.

Can Rex show Caroline the safety and security of the MC? Can Caroline tame the wild beast inside of Rex? Can their innocent ride become a journey to long-lasting love?

Here

 

I received this book from the author from an honest review.
*Breath in and out* Rex….WOW!! Where do I begin??? He is suuuuuch a DB in the last book. He really only cares about what makes his “member” happy. He only cares for himself and the next barfly to warm him up. He sees Caroline and immediately nick names her “Lux” because she IS a deluxe model woman. She is stiletto heels, suits, fancy hair up dos and so NOT in his world like her besties Sass and Doll.
This book we see an entirely new man. Rex got some BIG news last book and he is really re-evaluating his life. He realizes what a selfish guy he is and offers to help Lux. He sees his failures from before and will not let Lux, extended Hellion family, down. This book was really DEEP. I mean Rex is really stepping up to make himself a better man. He sees Caroline and is attracted YES but knows it will never happen. She is a business suits future wife not a man in a leather cut. I loved that this “innocent” friendship actually helped them settle into a routine and that in itself allowed a REAL relationship to grow.
Caroline…wow!!! Not the girl we think. We have SEEN her as a rich girl and living a rich lifestyle. The discoveries made in this book blew me away. I never thought that THIS was Caroline. Seems the name Lux is totally incorrect!! Caroline has some deep dark secrets that all come crashing down. These secrets force her to come clean about her past. It forces her to accept help from the Hellions and Rex.
I have to admit, I was expecting a lot of push/pull and sexual chemistry in the book based off of prior books and scenes between the characters. That is all there but is it sooooo much better. The connection that Rex and Lux make is much more and even deeper then I could have imagined. Lux really learns to rely and TRUST Rex while he learns to open up and CARE for someone fully and unselfishly. There are a few twists and turns and each one makes the couple open up a little more and each new discovery leads to more opening of their hearts…….As much as I love me some Tank for my future Baby Daddy, I think Rex may be fighting for contention to my heart…..

#Audio #Military – Found in the Lost, The Leonidas Corporation book 1 by Tarina Deaton

Leave a comment

Crypto archaeologist, Kinley Dunn accomplished the impossible; translating an ancient Mayan text that stumped experts since its discovery hundreds of years ago. Rumored to hold the key to a vast and priceless treasure, Kinley is determined to be part of the discovery until she finds herself stranded in Guatemala without a way to reach her mentor.

Former SEAL Shane Ivers is searching for his purpose, but on this trip his only goal is to relax and catch up with his old teammates while exploring ancient Mayan ruins. What he didn’t count on was the smart and beautiful Kinley falling at his feet—literally.

An offer of a ride turns into a dangerous, heart-pounding trek through the jungle, while a simple vacation attraction develops into something deeper. With the help of The Leonidas Corporation, they’ll race to find the lost Mayan city, but there’s more at stake than priceless treasure and Kinley and Shane could lose more than they bargained for. Because someone wants the secret Kinley holds and will do anything to get it.

Found in the Lost, The Leonidas Corporation book 1 by Tarina Deaton

I was given this audiobook by the author for an honest review.

Kinley and Shane were a fun read.  I don’t know why but I kept thinking of the 80’s movie Romancing the Stone.  She is in trouble and he saves her.  LOL

The way they meet is a funny moment but also you are wondering what is happening.  They end up traveling together with his Navy SEAL friends when someone tries to grab them.  Kinley is like what is happening and who are these guys!!!

Kinley is at risk and Shane, and the guys, jump in to help her.  The banter between the guys is great.  But the chemistry between Shane and Kinley is delicious.

Two people once lost.
Two people once broken.
Two people who have endured the pain.

One love brought them together. One love healed their hearts and made them whole again. One love carries them through both the good times and the bad.

Shooter and Tessie have faced the shadows and demons that haunt their souls. They have built their life together on a solid foundation of love, friendship, and understanding. The only thing they haven’t done is make it official.

Join them as they come together to commit to one another for the eternal ride.

Here

If you love Chelsea raise your hand? *Raises hand*

If you cannot miss anything about the Hellion hotties, raise your hand? *Raises hand and even starts to jump up and down*

If you THINK you LOVED Shooter before, raise your hand? *Raises hands, jumps up and down and yells MEEEEEE*

Ok so all of you Shooter fans, this book will make your heart melt even MORE in love witht this MC hero. Yes Shooter is a Hero in my book. He has done so much in so many ways to save Tessie that I think calling him a hero fits.

Shooter and Tessie are in love, engaged but she is still not wanting to set a date. This novella takes place during the time of the novel ICE (written by her and Jessie Lane). Shooter and Tessie go to Brook’s graduation when Tessie decides THIS WEEKEND is THE WEEKEND!!

As to be expected, Shooter and Tessie bring Rex in to the circle for Axels well being and because, lets face it, he is a SERIOUS PART of this family. I laughed alot when Rex was in the scenes and THUD/SWOONED when it was just Shooter…..sigh……if you love the series you need to read this ASAP!!

Mercy is no friend of mine. Karma, she has yet to show kindness to me.

The hits just keep on coming for Tessie Marie Harlow. She has never had an easy life. Her mom disabled, her dad long gone, and a single mom raising a rambunctious little boy, that’s Tessie’s world.

Her childhood aspirations to be a nurse long since disappeared after a college spring fling both blessed and burdened her with a baby boy. Dropping out of school, she returns to her hometown and begins to settle in. Getting the only job she could as a bartender she spends her days caring for her son and nights serving the Hellions Motorcycle Club and their affiliates.

Tired of waiting for Rex to grow up, she’s faced with the bane existence of her life until one night changes everything. In the darkest hour of her merciless ride through life, she’s saved by a quiet, laid back Hellion.

Andy ‘Shooter’ Jenkins has always been around. Too wrapped in Rex she has never really noticed him before. He has never been loud or known to have the girls hanging all over him. He is a mystery. A chance encounter brings him to her rescue not once but twice.

The Desert Ghosts Motorcycle Club are in town and bring their own brand of chaos right to Tessie’s door. Forced into her day to day life, Shooter is doing everything he can to shelter and protect her as lines are crossed and a war between two clubs begins.

Secrets revealed putting two brothers in the Hellions Motorcycle Club at a serious crossroads in their lives.

I received this book from the author for an honest opinion.

EEEEP!!! Shooter is a tall drink of water. Tessie is the such resilient character sooo how can you not love them. So this book was about two minor side characters and TBH it may be one of my favorites. I mean Tessie has HAD IT with Rex and his man-whoring ways so she never SAW Andy aka Shooter. Rex made sure the other guys at the MC kept away from Tessie but never really claimed her as his own. Shooter has watched Tessie from a distance for a few years and thought what a great woman she would be if Rex opened his eyes.

WELL, fate stepped in and help those two broke souls find each other. Tessie’s car breaks down and who comes to help her out? Not Rex but Shooter. She is a bit disappointed that Rex couldn’t be bothered but not really shocked. Rex is Rex. Shooter is kinda smitten with Tessie right away. He goes out of his way to help her out but then realizes he is no good for her because of his past with his ex Tracie…..sooo distance is the plan

Again Fate makes Shooter and Tessie rely on each other. Tessie is assaulted and Shooter is there to help her through it. When the club can’t help her because she isn’t “claimed” by anyone, who steps up? Nope not Rex but Shooter. The two start to live together and discover they calm each other and help the other through the rough times.

Tessie’s little boy Axel is a whole other story…WOW…what we learn about his life and what Tessie did to keep her boy safe. She will do whatever to make sure her son has what he needs. It made me like her a whole lot more to be honest. When Axel’s daddy realizes his responsibility and steps up to the plate I loved Axel refering to Shooter as his other dad too……made tears well up!!

I liked Caroline and her feisty attitude. She will not put up with Rex and so their book is going to be insane!! Rex cannot stand that Caroline puts it back on him for how he is viewed and his actions. Rex also realizes he screwed up a chance with Tessie and is looking for someone to love. I tell you this series is awesomeness topped with amazingness too!!

Second chance love rarely happens in his world.
They share a past that will forever tie them together.

The danger, the wildness, and the chaotic lifestyle of the Hellions motorcycle club is too much for Savannah “Sass” Perchton. Swearing off bikers, she pushes herself away from her family and the very life she knows.

Things aren’t always what they seem. The grass isn’t always greener on the other side.

A different broad in his bed, off on a different ride, and always chasing something new, Frank “Tank” Oleander never settles down. The Haywood’s Hellions road chief will give anything for his club, from love to even his life.

Throttle down. Ride it out.

When the fast-paced lives they have both been living catches up to them, they find themselves at a crossroads.

As Tank teeters on the brink of giving in to death’s darkness, her voice is all he can hold onto. The coma he can’t get out of is full of the memories he can’t discard.

She is the light in his darkness. He is her saving grace.

*** This is a motorcycle club romance. This book contains strong language, strong sexual situations, violence, and is not suitable for readers under the age of eighteen. This is a work of fiction and is not meant to be a true or exact depiction of a motorcycle club but rather a book meant to entertain. ***

I received this book from the author.

OMG i am so stunned by this book. I mean I knew it was Sass and Tank’s book BUT the way it was told totally rocked my socks off. I mean who can have a main character be in a coma while we the reader are falling in love even more with him? Uhm Chelsea can that is who. Yes my friends, Tank is in a coma 50% of the time. How can that make this awesome you ask? Well we KNOW how Sass feels after book 1. She bared her heart to him for it to be shut down. What we dont know is that he admitted alot to people before he was injured protecting her and Doll. We are inside his brain during his coma and we are hearing him proclaim his love of Sass.

While Tank is struggling to get back to his Button (I loved that name FYI) we are seeing Sass flounder. Nick aka Mr. Perfect Prince Charming is not so perfect but Sass will not fail because she will not be an ol’lady. She will not not be a priority to the man she gives her life to…so she settled for Nick.

When Tank gets out we know right away, Sass is in for it. We see their dynamic several times before Sass finally leaves to be with Tank. Now I am skipping over some MAJOR stuff because people I want you to read this book. When I knew I fell in full on love for Tank was when he claimed Sass in front of Nick…defo a SWOON moment if ever for me.

Now i know that some people felt their romance was rushed but I think it was true. Sass was not sure if she wanted a life with Tank even though he told her he was in it for the long haul. When Sass sees some stuff she realizes she is done fighting it and they admit their love. Yes there wasnt a lot of sexy time or dating but we KNOW they are both head over heals. So I am good with howt he story ends and the way their story went. I cannot wait for the next couple of books. The set ups have been pretty awesome so far.

Their forbidden attraction couldn’t be denied.

Can one ride turn lust into love?

Delilah “Doll” Reklinger has never been in danger before. As the only child of Roundman, Haywood’s Hellions motorcycle club president, she has always been protected.

When a threat to Roundman’s club gets too close to his precious doll, he does the only thing he can think of—sends her away until his enemy is in the ground.

Talon “Tripp” Crews lives his life from one ride to the next. As the Catawba Hellions motorcycle club chapter president, he doesn’t hesitate to answer Roundman’s call for help.

One ride across the country sounds simple enough.

One ride tempted by a forbidden desire is far from easy.

One ride changes everything for everyone.

Here

I received this book from the author for an honest opinion and review.

So I am a SUCKER for a good MC book. I am a huge SOA fan sooo yes this book sounded good. Then when another author recommened the series to me……SOLD!! I got swamped and had to let this little gem sit on my TBR shelf for a few weeks….BOOOO but holy smokes when i started reading it, I. COULD. NOT. PUT. IT. DOWN!!!!!!!

Doll is a hellion throughand through. She was rasied by her dad, Roundman aka MC pres, and she knows her place. But she still is wanting to be an ol’lady at some point in her life. She wants this life and will find a biker someday to be hers. Well enter Tripp. He is the Pres to a charter club and sees Doll….SPARKS!! When he realizes she is Roundman’s Doll he runs the other way. He can’t stop thinking about her and her him buuuuut she will not chase a guy and she is OFF LIMITS to him.

Well a bad guy who is in business with Doll’s dad makes a threat against her. So Roundman sends Doll and her bestie Sass packing with Rex and Tripp. They have to make it look like a romantic trip so to keep the bad guys from knowing that Roundman is gonna kill ’em!! NOBODY meses with Roundman and his MC family but you mention Doll and you pretty much signed your own death warrant!!!

SOOOOO, life on the road, hot sexual chemistry and BOOM they are at it. BUT Tripp can’t be with doll. She is to pure sooo he does what all idiot men do…turns to another woman!! GROWL!!! When the two finally admit to the attraction ,after Rex and Sass helped get some prospective, the relationship blooms until its time to take Doll home. They are both a mess but how can they be together? How can they make it work???? My favorite scene was when Doll and Roundman had “words” about her relationship with Tripp and when Tripp and Roundman have words…..best scenes ever.

I loved this book and can’t wait to jump into book 2 with Sass and her story. I also can’t wait for more Tripp and Doll story. The two of them are two peas on the biker pod!!

My name is Thia Mackin. I was born and raised in a small town in central Kentucky near the Bourbon Capital of the World. I’m a boring person who has experienced amazing things.

 

How did you hear about this event?  How many years have you attended?

Both readers and authors have told me great things about this event. I’ve been meaning to apply for a while, but this is my first year!

 

What genres do you write?

I write Urban Fantasy Romance. My books are spicier than UF readers expect but less spicy than most paranormal readers want.

 

What is a book of yours you wish more people read?

Omega is my favorite book I’ve ever written. When I saw the premade cover my artist dropped, I dreamed the entire book like a movie that night. Luckily, Alex hadn’t sold it! I absolutely fell in love with Omega. She’s a strong, independent woman who will do anything to save the world–even sacrifice herself.

 

What is one fun fact about you?  It can be anything like food allergy, fear of something, weird way you broke a bone…….

I’m an adrenaline junkie–snorkeling with Caribbean reef sharks, ziplining over the Grand Canyon and Niagara Falls, hiking volcanos!
