REV by JC Emery

SYNOPSIS:

Everyone belongs somewhere. Even the misfits.

With the looming threat from the Mancuso Crime Family, the Forsaken Motorcycle Club is preparing for a war that could destroy them. Grady, the club’s Sergeant-at-Arms, knows that love makes you weak, and he has zero interest in adding to his liabilities– especially now. He’s already got his teenage daughter who keeps him on his toes and a beef within the club that could fracture his relationship with a fellow brother for good.

For Holly Mercer, her life is finally getting on track and the last thing she wants is trouble from her hometown’s resident outlaws. Keeping her nose clean is easier said than done, when suddenly she finds herself embroiled in club business. Holly might like the idea of being with a real-life bad boy, but even being in the same room with tough-as-nails Grady flusters her.

When Holly inadvertently finds herself on Mancuso’s radar, she has two choices: trust that Grady will protect her, or continue to refuse the club’s help. Both roads are dangerous, but only one has the chance to damage her beyond repair.

Love is never more dangerous than when it can destroy you.

RENEE'S REVIEW

This book was giving  to me by the author (thank you) in exchange for an honest review.


Rev is the 3rd book in JC Emery's Bayonet Scares series. This series is about a motorcycle club vs. the mafia, but that is just an element of the story.  Emery was more going on in each book than just fight, motorcycles and black sedans.  Each of these book have a love story, these tough motorcycle dudes and the women who fall for them.

This story follows school secretary Holly, who just moved back to town and Grady, the Sargent-at Arms for the club. Holly is assigned as sort of a counselor for Cheyenne, Grady's daughter.  Holly  tries multiple times to get in touch with Grady by phone over Cheyenne's behavior and grades, but he just hangs up on her. So Holly, is a little spit fire   herself, not known for making great choices, goes to their house to confront Grady. Who does this woman think she is going to a Forsaken members house?  Grady is beyond pissed, but she amused him. he thought it was funny to get her all riled up.  They soon find themselves tangled up into a mess, isn't that how all good relationships start? 

Emery really pushed some limits with this book.  She was really graphic and when Holly had enough in one scene, the sheer determination that Emery described and the description of that scene, shows how seasoned of a writer Emery really is.  I have never read a book that was like this, I've always stuck with romance and woman's fiction, with a little suspense and thriller mixed in to round it out.  Even in the suspense and thriller novels I read were not this riveting. Could you imagine if she did write thrillers??? Mind blown!

This so far was the best of the series, you do still need to read the other to know what is going on but this one right here gets my GOLD STAR! I will be talking about this book with my review friends/book friends. That says a lot when you read 20 or more books a month, you tend not to talk about many of them. 

I give REV by JC Emery 5 Platypires
or stars however you like to count!

BAMA LOVE!! Roll Tide!! and Keep Reading Y'all!

Because Of Beckett by A.D. Ellis

SYNOPSIS:

You met Audrey Decker through Nate and Libby’s story in For Nicky, Torey Hope book 1. This is Audrey’s story. It is highly suggested that you read For Nicky before reading Because of Beckett so that you can be emotionally vested in Audrey’s story.

Audrey Decker is a mean girl, a bitch, a bully. She has no plans to stop treating people badly and she’s definitely not going to stop using sex as power. But when she ends up in therapy against her wishes, an ugly and painful repressed past is uncovered and Audrey’s world is tipped on its axis. Everything she thought she knew, everything she thought she was, is all changing.

Jeremiah Jordan returns from serving two years overseas with a detached and hardened heart. When his world is rocked with unexpected news and difficult challenges, Jeremiah faces them head on. He’s comfortable with where he is right now; he has his parents close by and his son is his world. He definitely doesn’t have time for the hassle that has always accompanied dating in the past. He doesn’t have it in him to put effort into forming relationships that may just hurt him or his son again.

A chance encounter, second chances, and a little boy who believes in learning from mistakes is all it takes to bring Audrey and Jeremiah together. However, deserving a second chance and taking that second chance are two very different things. Learning from mistakes and letting go of the past may be easier said than done. Can Audrey and Jeremiah push through the pasts that are haunting both of them or will their romance wither and die under the weight of it all?

Because of Beckett is a story of love, forgiveness, and second chances.


**Because of Beckett is recommended only for ages 18+ due to harsh language, adult situations, and mature themes. Certain pivotal points of Audrey’s history may trigger unpleasant memories for some readers.**

Renee's Review

Because of Bennett was another great book by A.D. Ellis. The best part of this book was Mr. Beckett. Talking about a charming little fella, he was so sweet and wise beyond his years. He charmed his way into my heart and I think he will take up permanent residentsacy right along Nicky. I was so glad Nicky had a staring role in this story as well. His sweet loving nature captured my heart in the first book and didn't let it go in this one either.
This was a redemption story of sorts, learning to no

This was a redemption story of sorts, learning to not only love yourself but how to let go of the mistakes you've made in you past and move on. Getting the help you need and keep working on yourself.
A.D. Ellis has a wonderful way of making you care for her characters. You find your self so involved in their story and you want to cry with them. There was once in the book, I was saying... Oh, no she didn't, did she? This book was a little emotional but the epilogue made up for everything.

Don't let all this fill good mushy stuff you read in the previous paragraphs get in the way of letting you think Ellis skipped on the hot scenes. Nope, she has a strong knack for that too. From dirty talk to steamy interlude, Ellis continues with the hard core, ah romance situations.
I hope to see more from this little town!

I give Because of Bennett 5 Platypires
