ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date October 31, 2024

She was meant to be a job, not the woman I couldn’t live without.

Turmoil

They were f***ing with the club’s money and we were tied of dealing with it. The moment Damon asked for one of us prospects to volunteer, I jumped at the opportunity. I was itching to prove myself to the club and this was my way to do that.

The task? Go undercover and get close to Seraphina Bernard—find out what her and family’s plans were with the club, and stop them before they got the chance to do anything else.

The problem? Seraphina got under my skin. She was cocky, privileged, and had the world at her fingertips. Getting her to want to be around me was one thing, but eventually, I proved myself to her.

Not long after knowing her, our relationship shifted. It started out as a friends with benefits situation, and one night at a club with her, someone tried to attack her. I intervened and that’s when it shifted. I crossed a line I shouldn’t have that night. I knew better, and somehow I was now in a fake relationship with her.

I had a duty to the club and I would fulfill my obligations, but after a time, I realized Seraphina was in the dark more than we anticipated.

As the truth came to light, my feelings for Seraphina grew, but how would she handle it when she found out the club sent me here to spy on her?

Would she forgive me, or would she view herself as nothing more than a target?

REVIEW: TURMOIL’S TARGET is the second instalment in Elizabeth Knox’s contemporary, adult REAPERS REJECTS MC: NEVADA Second Generation erotic, MC romance series, set in the author’s Reapers Rejects MC world. This is prospect Abram ‘Abe’ Morozov aka Turmoil, and heiress Seraphina Bernard’s story line. TURMOIL’S TARGET can be read as a stand alone but I recommend reading Spark’s Inferno for background.

Told from dual first person perspectives (Turmoil and Seraphina) TURMOIL’S TARGET follows the undercover operation into the who, how and why of the people taking aim at the Reapers Rejects MC. Someone is targeting the MC for sins of the past, and at every opportunity, are one step ahead of the Reapers Rejects. Desperate, the Reapers Rejects send in two undercover prospects to ferret out information in an effort to put an end to what is happening and why. Enter Abram ‘Turmoil, Morozov. Turmoil is expected to seduce heiress Seraphina Bernard, a young woman with connections to the MC past but a woman caught in a spiral not of her making. As Turmoil’s seduction gains momentum, the possibility of a mole forces the club to look inward.

The world building continues to focus on the business ‘attacks’ against the Reapers Rejects MC. Someone is outbidding and ensuring the MC’s business plans and success begin to fail, and in this, prospects Turmoil and Jolt are assigned to find out the who, how and why. Seducing heiress Seraphina Bernard was easy but falling in love was never in the plans.

The relationship between Seraphina and Abe aka Turmoil begins as an assignment; a seduction to uncover information but Abe found himself falling for his mark, a fall that threatens the future of the Reapers Rejects MC. Seraphina has no idea she is a pawn in a dangerous game but a game where she will discover all is not right in her well orderly world. The $ex scenes are passionate and intense.

The secondary and supporting characters include several OG members of the Reapers Rejects MC including club prez Damon and VP Dixon, as well as prospect Jolt, Doc, Shiver; Seraphina’s mother Sally Bernard, her grandfather, and her best friend Rita.

TURMOIL’S TARGET is a story of secrets and lies, betrayal and vengeance, power and control, determined and desperations, family and relationships. The character driven premise is dramatic and engaging but the seven month jump leaves too many unanswered questions; the romance is fated and flawed; the characters are stubborn and daring. TURMOIL’S TARGET ends on a bit of a cliff hanger-you have been warned.

DOC’S DECISION
Reaper’s Rejects MC: Second Generation 3
by Elizabeth Knox
Genre: adult, contemporary, dark, erotic, MC, romance

Amazon.com / Amazon.ca / Amazon.uk / Amazon.au /

ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date November 30, 2024

She stepped up when she didn’t need to, and that was the moment she belonged to me.

Doc

With the immediate threat dealt with, the club could finally rest. At least, that’s what I thought at first. I thought we’d all get a break, that we’d enjoy the few moments of peace we had.

But, I was wrong.

Sassy delivered my son and I was accepting the truth—a clubwh*** had my baby. I was going to try to coparent with her, and I wasn’t opposed to the idea of trying to make an honest woman out of her.

I wasn’t going to be a jerk about it. I was going to be mature. I had my mind made up. I just never thought Sassy would leave a note in her room saying she wasn’t coming back and that I could have him.

I went from thinking my son would have a mother in his life, that he wouldn’t be raised in the same turmoil I was. Sadly, that wasn’t the case. The club stepped up, though. All of the ladies were there for my little man, but there was one woman who showed up more than the rest—Mandy.

I’d become good friends with her over the last year and seeing her with my son sparked something inside me. I don’t know when I made the decision, but I knew then I’d make her my ol’ lady.

I wasn’t going to let this magnificent woman slip through my fingers.

REVIEW: DOC’S DECISION is the third instalment in Elizabeth Knox’s contemporary adult REAPER’S REJECTS MC: Second Generation erotic, MC romance series-a spin off set in the author’s Reaper’s Rejects world. This is MC member /medic Darren ‘Doc’ Nixon, and Amanda “Mandy’ Blake’s story line. DOC’S DECISION can be read as a stand alone but I recommend reading the series in order for back story and cohesion, as there is an ongoing premise throughout. Mandy was first introduced in book one Spark’s Inferno.

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

Told from dual first person perspectives (Doc and Mandy) DOC’S DECISION follows the building relationship between our story line couple. Darren ‘Doc’ Nixon is a single father who is struggling with his newborn son. Mandy Blake, adult internet entertainer, steps in to help which only adds to her attraction to our story line hero. Doc has lusted after Mandy from afar but all bets are off when Mandy’s past returns, while Doc claims our heroine as his own.

The world building follows several pathways including Mandy’s past, and Doc’s personal struggle with his ailing mother. When Mandy’s past returns, our heroine and the club become a target, a target of a sick and twisted mind.

The relationship between Mandy and Doc has been simmering for a long time but Doc’s new found fatherhood found our hero struggling but with Mandy’s help, Doc sees a potential future with the woman with whom he will fall in love. The $ex scenes are intimate and provocative including some scenes of Daddy kink.

Once again, there is a large ensemble cast of colorful and familiar secondary and supporting characters including several members of the Reaper’s Rejects MC, as well as Zoe and Spark, Turmoil and Seraphina. Seraphina figures prominently in the current time line.

DOC’S DECISION is a story of power and control, betrayal and vengeance, madness and obsession, acceptance and love. The premise is intriguing and dramatic; the romance is seductive; the characters are desperate and charismatic.. DOC’S DECISION ends on a cliff hanger-you have been warned.
