Title: Forever Ride (A Hellions Ride, #2)
Author: Chelsea Camaron
Genre: MC Romance

Events happen in life that can awaken our truest and deepest desires. They also show us our greatest fears. Sometimes we are forced to face those fears, other times we build walls that can't be broken to protect ourselves.

A profound connection these two once shared. A strong friendship once formed was shattered. Fate has stepped in and shaken both their worlds.

The danger, the wild, the chaos, and the lifestyle of the Hellions world has become far too much for Savannah 'Sass' Perchton. Swearing off bikers and attempting a 'normal' life, she has settled. She's committed to Nick, her country club, pretty boy. She's found a way to be content.

Things aren't always what they seem. Wrap an empty box in pretty paper and a bow, it may look amazing, but it's still a hollow shell.

He's a Hellions playboy. A different chick in his bed, off on a different ride, and always something new. He's Frank the 'Tank' Oleander, Haywood's Hellions Road Chief. Throttle down and life is good.

The fast pace of the Hellions life catches up to him. At a crossroads, he's forced to face some life changing thoughts or succumb to the darkness of death. Teetering on the brink of giving in, her voice is all he's holding onto. The coma he can't pull himself out of, but her voice is the light in the darkness. He wants the girl who pulled him through when his life was literally in the balance.

She's sworn off bikers. Can he pull through? Can she ever see past the lifestyle to the heart of the man behind the cut? Will they find their Forever Ride?

I love MC reads and Forever Ride is just another to add to my  list!

Sass and Tank’s story has been intriguing from the start. Tank is a bad ass MC and his rejection to Sass, hurts her deep. Sass wants a new life--a life without the MC family, her friends and ultimately Tank. 


Sass desperately tries to move on. She moves on with her "normal, office-working, suit-wearing" boyfriend. But her "normal" life is far from perfect. Her boyfriend, Nick, is not who she thinks he is. He's controlling and tells her either it's him or her family. Seriously? She drove me nuts and picked him. She pretty much isolated herself from her loved ones and lived an empty life, trying to pretend to be someone else.
 

For part of the book, Tank is in a coma, recovering from the injuries in One Ride (it's a must read!). Even though he is not awake, he is able to tell us his story--his thoughts while lying there in the hospital. He's very aware of his visitors and his surroundings. Particularly, his visits from Sass. I love how we got to hear how he felt and his feelings for Sass.

As Tank wakes up, he refuses to give up on Sass. But she's way too deep with her controlling boyfriend. Forever Ride takes you on an angsty and action-packed ride. It's filled with heartwarming moments and some steam. A great weekend read!


And seriously...I want Tank to call me "Button"!

~Tank~

She’s in my arms, her body draped across mine. I have not slept one bit. 

We left the kitchen after the barbeque and came back to my room on the compound. I have one of the duplexes that really is all my own. My roommates are all married, so usually the place is empty except for me. With the charter clubs here, I have a few people staying over, but they don’t care that Sass is in my bed. 

Last night was nothing short of incredible. The hellcat likes it rough and everywhere. I lost count of the orgasms between us. Thinking of it, my dick is ready again. I am sure her pussy needs a break, though. Her ass, too. 

Reality hits me like a sledge hammer.

I fucked my brother’s daughter. My boss’s daughter. I fucked one of the untouchable two.

Worse, though, I fucked my friend. Never cross that line. There is no going back. I live my life with no regrets, the words tattooed across my lower stomach, reminding me and every female that goes low, there will be no regrets. Only now, I have gone too far. I don’t regret last night—it was the best damn night I have ever shared with someone—but it shouldn’t have happened.

Looking at her red hair lying across my chest, the contrast against the colors of my tattoos, I don’t want to move. I don’t want this to end, but it must. 

Each breath she takes tickles my nipple piercing, reminding me of each bite and tug her mouth gave them mere hours ago. How can I go back to the way things were between us? Every time I see her I’m going to want nothing more than to be balls deep once again. 

Maybe with enough space, fresh air, and distance everything will go back to normal. Yeah, normal, that’s what I need.

Smacking her ass playfully, I wake her up. Abruptly, I move out from under her, standing by the bed, watching as she takes in her surroundings and remembers last night. 

It’s time to make my clean escape. I make my way to my bathroom, calling out over my shoulder to her, “Time to say goodbye. Gather your stuff up. You found your way to my bed, you can find your way out the damn door.”

Chelsea always wanted to be a writer, but like most of us, let fear of the unknown grab a hold of her dream; she realized that if she was going to tell her daughter to go for her dreams, that it was time to follow her own advice. Chelsea grew up turning wrenches alongside her father, and from that grew her love for old muscle cars and Harley Davidson motorcycles, which just so happened to inspired her ‘Daddy’s Girls’ series. Her love for reading has sparked a new love for writing and she currently has a few more projects in the works. When she is not spending her days writing you can find her playing with her kids, attending car shows, going on motorcycle rides on the back of her husband’s Harley, snuggling down with her new favorite book or watching any movie that Vin Diesel might happen to be in. She hates being serious and is still a big kid at heart. She is a small town country girl enjoying life and, Chelsea hopes that her readers remember not to take life too seriously and to embrace your inner five year old, because five year olds know how to enjoy the simple things in life and how to always have fun.

Blog Tour Stop: Better When He's Bad (Welcome to the Point, #1) by Jay Crownover

Welcome to the Point

There’s a difference between a bad boy and a boy who’s bad . . . meet Shane Baxter.

Sexy, dark, and dangerous, Bax isn’t just from the wrong side of the tracks, he is the wrong side of the tracks. A criminal, a thug, and a brawler, he’s the master of bad choices, until one such choice landed him in prison for five years. Now Bax is out and looking for answers, and he doesn’t care what he has to do or who he has to hurt to get them. But there’s a new player in the game, and she’s much too innocent, much too soft…and standing directly in his way.

Dovie Pryce knows all about living a hard life and the tough choices that come with it. She’s always tried to be good, tried to help others, and tried not to let the darkness pull her down. But the streets are fighting back, things have gone from bad to worse, and the only person who can help her is the scariest, sexiest, most complicated ex-con The Point has ever produced.

Bax terrifies her, but it doesn’t take Dovie long to realize that some boys are just better when they’re bad.

4.5 Stars out of 5

Bax. A total bad ass. And not just a bad boy in a leather jacket on a motorcycle, but a bad boy criminal! A felon. But despite his history and his long rap sheet, you just can't help but fall for this man!

Dovie is a great female character. I love the fact she is not some voluptuous, knockout that men fall for in this book. She's a plain Jane, with crazy, red curly hair. Even though she's a plain Jane, she is street smart and knows how to handle living in The Point. Dovie knows how to take care of herself while being smart of her surroundings.

Bax is released from prison after being locked up for five years and now wants answers. He took the fall for his best friend, Race and was set up. Bax is full of hate, anger and revenge when he gets out. He finds Dovie, thinking she is the key to all the answers, but it turns out she is Race's half sister and is in just as much trouble as he is with the bad people from The Point!


  
Bax and Dovie soon find more questions than answers to everything that has happened in the past five years. Their relationship doesn't start off on the right foot. Bax terrifies Dovie and Bax can't get over how stubborn she is in order to help her brother.  

Better When He's Bad takes you on a wild, mysterious ride to figure out what really happened and who you can and can't trust. 

And when Bax and Dovie finally react to their attraction with each other, it is bad ass HOT! This book is a real page turner, you can't stop until you find out the answers. 

Looking forward to more in this series with Race's story and hopefully a little more of Bax and Dovie!

COVER REVEAL: Falling Away (Fall Away, #3) by Penelope Douglas

Title: Falling Away (Fall Away, #3)
Author: Penelope Douglas
Genre: New Adult Romance
Release Date: January 6, 2015




Jaxon is the guy she’s supposed to avoid. 
K.C. is the girl he won’t let get away....

K. C. Carter has always followed the rules—until this year, when a mistake leaves her the talk of her college campus and her carefully arranged life comes crashing to a halt. Now she’s stuck in her small hometown for the summer to complete her court-ordered community service, and to make matters worse, trouble is living right next door.

Jaxon Trent is the worst kind of temptation and exactly what K.C. was supposed to stay away from in high school. But he never forgot her. She was the one girl who wouldn’t give him the time of day and the only one to ever say no. Fate has brought K.C. back into his life—except what he thought was a great twist of luck turns out to be too close for comfort. As they grow closer, he discovers that convincing K.C. to get out from her mother’s shadow is hard, but revealing the darkest parts of his soul is nearly impossible.…

“You’re afraid of yourself,” he said flatly. “Not me.”

And then he backed up, looking down at me." And that’s why you’re gutless, K.C." All the softness from his voice was now gone. “Now I have to shower, and you need to leave.”

And he turned around and strode for the men’s locker room.

I shook my head.

He was wrong. I wasn't gutless. Why did he keep saying that?

I sniffled and cleared my throat, standing tall. “Maybe I just don’t want you,” I blurted out and damn near smiled when he spun around, looking surprised. “Maybe I just don’t want you, Jax. Did you ever consider there might be one woman in this world that doesn’t pant after you?”

And I breathed out a small laugh as I spun around and headed for the door.

But before I even reached the handle, an arm circled my waist, yanking me back into a warm body, and I gasped just as my hair was swiped to the side and a hot mouth was on my neck.

Everything fell apart. My knees buckled, but he held me tight as my eyes closed, and my neck fell to the side, inviting him in.

Oh, my God!

It felt so good. I couldn’t think. I couldn’t pull away. I couldn’t stop him. His mouth was like hot water pouring over me, creating a blanket of heat. His teeth grazed my skin, rough but not hard, and he slid his lips and teeth over the sensitive area under my ear, and I wasn’t sure if he was kissing me or getting ready to eat me.

He left short but deep kisses across my neck, at the base, and under my ear. His tongue flicked my ear lobe right before his other hand reached around and turned my chin to him.

And then his mouth was on mine. I moaned and gasped, probably sounding like I was in pain, but I couldn’t help it. The tornado between my legs made my skin tingle.

Jax’s tongue found mine, and I groaned into his mouth, inhaling his scent that reminded me of summer. Of sweet cotton candy on a Ferris Wheel and cool water on hot skin.

The heat, the wetness, the taste, everything was hard and fast as his lips worked mine.

Keeping the same arm around my waist, his other hand left my face and dove straight under my skirt and into my panties.

“Oh,” I whimpered a muffled groan into his mouth that still held me hostage. What was he doing? I needed to stop this!

But my eyes fluttered as his smooth fingers dipped into my center, swirling the wetness already there around my clit.

And then his mouth left mine, and he yanked me up off my feet and growled in my ear.

“You’re so wet for me, K.C.” His voice was hard and threatening. “You're gutless, helpless, and a fucking liar, too.”

And then he dropped me on my ass, and I fell to the mats, shaking with confusion.

All I heard behind me was a door open and close, and I knew I was alone.

Bringing a shaky hand to my mouth, I sucked in air like it was going out of style. “Holy shit,” I whispered.

Blog Tour Stop: Overwhelmed by You (Tear Asunder #2) by Nashoda Rose

Love is ugly and secrets will destroy you.

KAT

I don’t beg.
I don’t cry.
And I don’t give second chances.

Ream, the lead guitarist of the rock band Tear Asunder, deserves a gold medal for best dick move ever when he ran the moment he discovered my secret after two days of hot sex. Then he brings some chick to my coming home party from the hospital—after being shot.
I hate him.

Until …

Ream’s six foot two frame unfolds out of the car after being gone on tour for eight months. I stared. And in my defense, any girl would stare. It would almost be rude not to because Ream was the type of guy who stood out. Not because he was loud and obnoxious. No, it was because he was the complete opposite. Subtle and dangerously quiet. If he spoke, you’d better hope he liked you because otherwise you’d be falling at his feet begging for mercy. Except me … I don’t beg—ever.
But when our eyes locked, it was Ream’s steady confidence that had my nerves shooting off like jet sprinklers.

Then…

Ream told me he didn’t need a second chance because he was still working on his first.


REAM

Sex is ugly. It’s using someone for your own narcissistic pleasure. I did it, but hated it—until her. She was unfuckinexpected. Then I had to wreck our beginning with my screwed up past. I don’t deserve her, but I’m selfish and I’m taking her anyway. This is who I am and it’s too late to change me.

Overwhelmed By You continues to bring the angst, heartache and emotion in this series. It picks up after the first book, leaving Kat heartbroken and trying to find life after Ream.

Coming back from tour, Ream has his work cut out for him. Trying to convince Kat that they belong together  becomes  a long road throughout this book. He still has his secrets and soon discovers Kat has her own secrets.

Kat tries to convince herself that she has moved on from Ream. She has a steady boyfriend, one who is safe and treats her right. Or she thinks..

But living together, proves it hard for the both of them to deny their chemistry and ultimately love.There are plenty of angst and back-and-forth between them, which makes this book a real-page turner. Eventually the secrets and lies come out and  potentially harms them. There is plenty of action and OMG moments toward the end of this book!

Blog Tour Stop: Seduce Me (Ravage MC #2) by Ryan Michele

Casey Alexander grew up part of the Ravage Motorcycle family since the day she was abandoned by her mother and thrown into her father’s lap. Always seeing herself as an outsider, she spent her whole life trying to fit in, but never really succeeding. When she loses her beloved father, the utter aloneness engulfs her, leaving her searching for solace in the one man she’s always craved. Confessing her love for him only results in devastation when he pushes her away. Convinced she needs a fresh start, she leaves everything behind in order to mend her broken heart and begin building a future without him.

Gage Thomas (G.T.) Gavelson fell in love with his Angel when he was just a pint sized kid. Both beautiful and smart, he always felt she deserved so much better than him. Growing up beside her in the club only continued to test his will power, until one night, he gave into temptation. Realizing he couldn’t allow himself to hold her back from the life she deserved, he pushed her away, allowing her to believe she would never be enough for him. Letting her go had been the hardest thing he’d ever done. Even though he’d thought it’d been the right thing to do, not a day goes by that misery doesn’t consume him for it.

When a tragic shootout occurs, everything changes as once again their lives are intermingled. When you find your way back to the one person you are meant to be with, forgiveness should be easy. But sometimes, we hurt each other too much to ever be able to forgive.

Is their love strong enough to heal their pain?

5 Stars out of 5 

I could not put this book down. I was hooked from page 1. Casey and G.T. made my heart hurt. I did shed some tears reading this book. I absolutely loved these two together.  But it wasn't perfect.

Casey takes off for college, leaving G.T., Harlow and the Club behind. Thinking that G.T. didn't want her and just wanted to sleep around, Casey is determined to make a life on her own. 

But even after making some new friends at college, Casey is still missing her life back home. After a heartbreaking secret and tragedy strikes both Casey and G.T., it sends Casey back to the Club. 

G.T. and Casey find each other again, but it's not without plenty of drama and devastating heartbreak. Secrets and lies come to the surface and it pushes the test between these two. And just like past books in this series, Seduce Me is still filled with serious bad ass MC hotness, angst and plenty of action.

I can't tell you how much I love this series and seriously...I'm ready for some more. I thought I loved Harlow and Cruz, but sorry Princess  and Cruz, but Casey and G.T. are my new fav Ravage MC couple!
