ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date April 19, 2019
I was about to make a huge mistake.
And when I say huge, I mean, approximately ten inches’ worth of mistake.
But after the week I’d had, this was just what I needed. A night of big bad mistakes with a big bad biker.
Honey Scott
Finding out your boyfriend is a cheating loser is a real buzz kill. Finding out you’re actually the other woman, is devastating. Call it temporary insanity, but I decide the best way to get over the loser I’d dated for two years is to get under a biker with tattoos, dimples and a hard body he knows how to use.
He’s going to make everything better with numerous mind-blowing orgasms. But just for one night.
Except one faulty condom means my one-night stand isn’t so one-night after all.
Caleb Calley
After a night of insane sex, the beautiful blue-eyed brunette gave me the slip. And even with all the women on offer afterwards, I can’t get her off my mind. So when she turns up at the Kings of Mayhem MC compound I’m quick to give her a second night of amazing sex and crazy orgasms. But this time, I’m not ready to let her go.
There’s just one problem— she’s not interested.
But if she thinks she’s going to give me the slip again, then she’s got another thing coming. I know she is keeping a secret from me but I don’t care what it is. I want her and I’m going to make her mine.

REVIEW: BIKER BABY is the third instalment in Penny Dee’s contemporary, adult KINGS OF MAYHEM MC erotic, romance series focusing on the men and women of the Kings of Mayhem MC in Destiny, Mississippi. This is MC member and tattoo artist Caleb Calley, and cupcake shop owner Honey Scott’s story line. BIKER BABY can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty. Any important information from the previous story lines is revealed where necessary.
Told from dual first person perspectives (Honey and Caleb) BIKER BABY follows the building relationship between MC member and tattoo artist Caleb Calley, and cupcake shop owner Honey Scott. Honey Scott thought she was in love but discovering her boyfriend of two years was in a relationship with someone else sent our heroine on an adventure of her own. A one-night stand in which our heroine ghosted the man in her bed, resulted in a pregnancy by someone she knew nothing about. Enter Caleb Calley, MC member, and the man with whom Honey would fall in love. What ensues is the building but back and forth, acrimonious relationship between Caleb and Honey, and the potential fall-out when a stalker turns their world upside down.
Honey battles between head and heart knowing the MC lifestyle may not be conducive to family and love. With issues of trust already riding her hard, Honey struggles with Caleb’s need to move in and protect the woman with whom he would fall in love. Honey’s ex demands a second chance; Mysterious break-ins, and unwanted gifts pose a potential threat to our story line couple when Caleb’s stalker gets up close and personal.
The relationship between Caleb and Honey struggles with issues of trust, and our heroine’s effort to remain guarded as it relates to Caleb and everything MC. Fearing Caleb’s inability to remain a one-woman man Honey is constantly pushing our hero out of her life. The $ex scenes are intimate, erotic and intense without the use of over the top, sexually graphic language and text.
The cast of colorful and dynamic secondary characters include Honey’s ex-boyfriend Charlie, and her best friend Autumn; Caleb’s brothers- Kings of Mayhem VP Cade Calley and his wife Indy, Chance Calley, and their mother Ronnie, and feisty grandmother Sybil; Sinister Ink employee Pandora; Caleb’s ex girlfriend Brandi; several members of the Kings of Mayhem MC-Maverick, Hawke, Tully and Club President Bull, and club wh*re Tiffani. There may be something developing between Autumn and Maverick. BIKER BABY sees the return of Chance Calley from overseas active duty, deployment that has left Chance a shell of his former self.
BIKER BABY is a story of family, trust, struggle and love. The premise is entertaining and intriguing; the characters are energetic and engaging; the romance is steamy and hot but struggles with the heroine’s need to push Caleb away. BIKER BABY focuses more on the relationship between Caleb and Honey, and less on the biker lifestyle.

The thought made me shift uneasily beneath him. I had to get out of there. I needed to be alone to collect my thoughts and find my senses. I wiggled and Caleb rolled off me. I thought he would let me go but he didn’t. Instead he turned my face towards him and kissed me hard on the mouth.
But I was leaving. I sat up and began looking for my panties on the floor. Finding them wedged under the corner of the bed, I slipped them on and began hunting for my skirt.
“Where are you going?” He asked.
“I have to go.”
“Why are you always running away from me?” He said, an amused sparkle in his eyes. “Will I see you again?”
I paused and looked at him over my shoulder. “Do you want to?”
He grinned and I was momentarily taken back by how beautiful it was.
How beautiful he was.
“Hell darlin’, I don’t want you to leave.”
I resumed looking for my skirt. “I have to leave. I have things to do.”
I found my skirt in a tangle with my shirt at the foot of the bed.
“At least let me give you a ride home.” He sat up.
“Its fine. I can call a cab.” I stood up and slipped my shirt on.
“I’m not letting you take a cab.”
“Really its fine.”
He climbed off the bed, unfazed by his nakedness, and began looking for his boxer shorts. I paused to drink in the fine display of his muscular body and his still swollen manhood swinging between his powerful thighs. It was obvious he took very good care of his body.
He slipped on his jeans and by the time I had buttoned my blouse and found my phone and shoes, he was fully dressed and securing his wallet chain to his jeans.
“Ready?” He asked.
There was no point arguing.
As he opened the bedroom door, I mentally braced myself. I wasn’t looking forward to the walk of shame through the clubhouse. But the hallway was quiet and the clubhouse was still. Sometime in the night the music had stopped and the party had wound down.
As soon as I entered the bar, the stench of last nights partying hit me like a bat to the face and I had to hold my breath. The bar was littered with snoring bikers and the odd club girl asleep where they had passed out. Bottles lay scattered and spilled everywhere. Stale booze and body odor were ripe in the air. Caleb took my hand and led me through the mess, stepping over discarded bottles and sleeping bodies. Musty smoke glittered in the dusty rays of sunlight bursting into the room from a window above the jukebox.
Across the room, an older biker was quietly having sex with a large, partially dressed woman up against the pool table. His jeans were down around his ankles and his eyes were closed as he lazily rocked into her. The slap, slap of her large wobbly boobs against the pool table broke the stillness of the morning.
Further away, a naked woman lay slumped at the base of a stripper pole with everything open and on display. She hugged a half-spilled bourbon bottle and snored loudly. As we passed by her, Caleb shook his head and grabbed a discarded shirt from a nearby chair to cover her.
“Is she alright?” I whispered.
“Yeah, that’s Candy. It’s not the first time she’s passed out there and it won’t be the last.”
I glanced around me. This place. These people. This was Caleb’s world. And it reeked of bad choices. Nausea roiled in the pit of my stomach and I barely made it outside in time before losing the contents of my stomach.
“Jesus, are you okay?” Caleb asked, coming up behind me.
I gestured for him to give me a moment as another wave of nausea washed over me and I vomited again.
“You drink too much?” he asked when I finally straightened and walked over to him. “I don’t remember you being drunk.”
I shook my head. “I didn’t drink a thing.”
He handed me a helmet. “Are you okay to ride? Or do you need a minute?”
“I’ll be okay.”
He led me over to a row of motorcycles parked alongside the clubhouse. His was a big black beast with lots of chrome gleaming in the early morning light.
Before he climbed on, he touched my hand. “Are you sure you’re ok?”
I smiled brightly but it was fake because I felt weird. Out of place. I didn’t belong there.
“Yes. I’m fine.” I said, very aware that I needed to get out of there. I did up my helmet and climbed onto the back of his bike. “Lets ride.”
