ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date September 18,2023

Brandy–
When a bunch of bad-boy bikers walk through the door to the bar, one catches my eye.
He’s got a killer smile, and an air of wickedness about him that draws me in.
We come from two different worlds, and I know my wealthy family would never approve.
He’s the walking definition of wrong-side-of-the-tracks, but I can’t seem to resist him, even after my father forbids it.
I just can’t get the sexy-as-sin biker out of my mind.
when everything else in my life seems to be going wrong, he feels so right.

Marcus–
I’m a prospect for the Evil Dead MC. My life right now is all about earning my patch.
I don’t have time for anything else. But when I lay eyes on Brandy, I start looking for ways to make the time.
One look at the hot-as-hell beauty knocks me off my feet.
I’m the proverbial bad boy, the one her mother warned her about.
There’s no reason she should give me a second look.
But when she does, I’ll do anything to hang onto her.
When trouble comes knocking, will our love bear the test or will I lose her forever?

REVIEW:MARCUS is the first instalment in Nicole James’ contemporary, adult EVIL DEAD: SINS OF THE FATHER erotic, MC romance series-a next generation spin off set in the author’s EVIL DEAD world. This is Evil Dead MC prospect Marcus, and waitress Brandy Arrington’s story line . MARCUS can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty. Several characters cross over from the original series for cohesion and history.MARCUS was first released in Kindle Vella under the title My Christmas Bad Boy.

NOTE: Due to the nature of the story line premise, there may be triggers for more sensitive readers.

Told from several first person perspectives including Brandy and Marcus MARCUS follows the building romance and relationship between Evil Dead prospect Marcus, and waitress/bartender/writer Brandy Arrington. Marcus, along with other prospects TJ and Billy have been sent on a mission, a mission that will bring Marcus face to face with his future in the guise of Brandy Arrington. Brandy is working at a local grocery / bar room where Marcus and the other prospects have been sent to retrieve a Christmas package but Marcus is quickly pulled into the aura that is our story line heroine, and pursues Brandy with everything he’s got but someone is gunning for the Evil Dead MC, and Brandy is about to get caught in the crossfire along Melissa, the daughter the president of the Evil Dead MC. What ensues is the building relationship between Brandy and Marcus, and the potential fall-out as a rival MC begins to encroach on the Evil Dead territory, with the help of some powerful people at the top.

The world building continues to focus on the Evil Dead MC: their members, their wives and ol’ladies; their trials and tribulations; their enemies and threats.

The relationship between Marcus and Brandy is one of immediate attraction but Brandy’s past is refusing to let go. With her wealthy parents pushing for a permanent reunion, Brandy must tread carefully in the face of Marcus’ connections and membership in the Evil Dead MC. As Marcus and Brandy are drawn closer together, someone else is looking to destroy Marcus, using Brandy as the catalyst. The $ex scenes are provocative and intense without the use of over the top, sexually graphic language and text.

There is a large ensemble cast of colorful and charismatic secondary and supporting characters including many of the original couples and characters who play prominently throughout the story. We are introduced to Brandy’s parents, her ex, as well as several members of the Death Heads, and Dead Souls MC.

I do have one small issue, and that is the use of so many similar names as it pertains to the MCs: Evil Dead, Death Heads, Dead Souls-it was a little bit confusing at times, especially when all three MCs were together on the same page.

MARCUS: SINS OF THE FATHER is a story of power and control, betrayal and vengeance, opportunity and obsession, acceptance, forgiveness and love. The premise is captivating and riveting; the romance is seductive and passionate; the characters are determined, dynamic and strong.
