REVIEW: HELL ON WHEELS is the first instalment in Nikki Landis’ contemporary, adult RBMC : LAS VEGAS NV erotic, paranormal MC romance series-a spin off from the author’s RBMC: TONOPAH, NV- a part of the multi-authored Royal B*stards MC series. This is thirty-six year old, veteran US Marine Flint ‘Maddog’ Shepherd, and twenty-seven year old, Lark Simmons’ story line.

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

Told from dual first person perspectives (Lark and Maddog) HELL ON WHEELS follows in the aftermath of the rescue of our story line heroine. One year earlier, Lark’s younger sister Molly was abducted and sold in sexual slavery, and Lark was determined to save her life but all did not go according to plan when Lark found herself the prisoner of a sexual sadist, and never did discover the whereabouts of her sister. Abused and terrorized, Lark would be rescued by former US Marine Flint ‘Maddog’ Shepherd, the man with whom Lark will fall in love. Flint Shepherd knows the only people who can help are the RBMC Tonopah, but Flint never thought he would find his future as the president of the newly formed RBMC: LAS VEGAS, a position that came with unexpected abilities and new found powers. What ensues is the building relationship between Lark and Flint, and the potential fall-out when the past comes back to reclaim what it had lost.

The world building focuses on Lark’s struggle to find her sister, and the take down the men who destroyed their lives. With the assistance of the RBMC Tonapah, and the man with whom she is falling in love, Lark will come face to face with the past, including facing down the man who destroyed them both. As Maddog slowly comes to terms with the loss of lives on his tour overseas, our hero will face a new future, and a new direction

The relationship between Lark and Maddog begins as a rescue. Maddog witnesses the smack down of our story line heroine, and in the aftermath of the rescue, Maddog draws the ire of Guerrero Cartel. Desperate to find the location of her sister, Lark struggles with her attraction to our story line hero, and the need to place herself back in the direct line of fire. The $ex scenes are passionate and intense.

There is a large ensemble cast of energetic and powerful secondary and supporting characters including several members aka reapers from the RBMC Tonapah, as well as Lark’s sister Molly, their brother Torin, and Lucifer f’n Morningstar.

HELL ON WHEELS is a story of power and control, betrayal and vengeance, madness and obsession , acceptance and love. The fast paced, character driven premise is dramatic and graphic; the romance is seductive and fated; the characters are dangerous, determined and dynamic.

ABOUT THE BOOK:

Never make a deal with the Devil. Manic: They call me a monster. A master of disguise. The phantom who travels within shadows. It’s been said that I can steal a man’s breath from across the room or slice his throat without lifting a finger. The rumors are true. I have a gift for dealing death, a hunger for bloodshed that blocks rational thought. And when something of mine is threatened . . . I unleash the beast, giving into his carnal, wicked appetite. There’s one soul on this earth that I crave, covet, and swear to protect at all costs. My pretty, perfect doll. A wicked biker like me doesn’t deserve her light, grace, or love, but that doesn’t stop me from taking it. Bianca is mine. Nothing is breaking us apart, even if I have to wreck everyone in my path to keep her. And selling my soul to the devil seems like a fair price to pay to ensure no one stands in my way.

A twist on the classic The Phantom of the Opera.

REVIEW: RECKLESS MAYHEM is the second instalment in Nikki Landis’ contemporary, adult RBCM: LAS VEGAS NV dark, erotic,paranormal, MC romance series. This is the continuing story of Benezio ‘Benny’ ‘Manic’ De Santo, and twenty-one year old Bianca Huber. RECKLESS MAYHEM can not be read as a stand alone as it picks up immediately after the events and cliff hanger of MANIC MAYHEM, a cross over with the author’s RBMC: TONOPAH, the multi-authored RBMC world, and MAYHEM MAKERS worlds.

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

SOME BACKGROUND: Years earlier, following the death of her beloved father, Bianca Huber would meet a badly burned and disfigured young man who was in desperate need of help. Taking Benezio to the estate care taker aka mortician, Benezio would find a home and a father figure in Archie Craven but having lost his heart to our story line heroine. Benezio would discover Bianca had been sent away, and he would only find solace five years years later with Bianca’s return

Told from dual first person perspectives (Benny and Bianca) RECKLESS MAYHEM follows in the wake of Bianca’s perceived betrayal by the man that she loves but Bianca will quickly discover the betrayal comes from within the family, a family with deep connections to the criminal underworld. Meanwhile, Benezio ‘Manic’ De Santo is about to come face to face with his future when he is introduced to the president of the RBMC Las Vegas, NV, a future that see his darker side take control. With Bianca a target, Manic will become guardian and protector of the woman he loves, and in doing so, take down the people responsible for destroying both of their lives. What ensues is the building relationship between Manic and Bianca, as Manic and the RBMC Reapers and Shadows, return evil to its’ original master.

The world building is complex and dark. Manic is about to become a part of a world into which he was born, a world that beckons the darker side of humanity, a world where vengeance is reaped upon the souls of the marked.

The relationship between Manic and Bianca is a childhood best friends in which Manic was never good enough for our story line heroine. Bianca has been promised to not one but two potential suitors, men who see Bianca only as a payday, not anything else. Benny De Santo lost everything from his innocence to his sense of worth but meeting Bianca meant everything including a chance at his own happily ever after. The $ex scenes are intimate and passionate without the use of over the top, sexually graphic language and text.

There is another large ensemble cast of colorful and powerful secondary and supporting characters including the return of Manic’s caretaker Craven, several members of the RBMC Tonapah and Las Vegas MCs including Maddog and Rael, and Lucifer, himself. The requisite evil has many faces.

RECKLESS MAYHEM is a dark, dramatic and emotional story of betrayal and vengeance, power and control, greed and obsession, acceptance and love. The premise is gritty and haunting; the romance is seductive and provocative; the characters are tragic, twisted and determined.
