Roman McNamara is not only the president of the Savage Kings of Myrtle Beach, South Carolina but he’s also the king of one-night stands.

Growing up in a tourist town where there’s a party every night means living up the good life with no commitments to anyone but the MC.

There’s just one woman Roman can’t get off his mind no matter how hard he tries…

Five years ago, Charlotte Newsom’s husband, Adam, died for his country. She hasn’t been able to move past the death of her best friend and soulmate and fears she never will.

When tragedy strikes during a bachelorette weekend, Roman and Charlotte’s paths finally cross in the most unexpected way.

Charlotte has no idea that Roman served in the Marines with her husband, or that he’s been keeping an eye on her for years, all while continuing to keep her husband’s secrets.

REVIEW: ROMAN is the first instalment in the contemporary adult SAVAGE KINGS MC-South Carolina erotic, MC romance series co-authored by Lane Hart and DB West. This is Savage Kings MC –South Carolina President Roman McNamara, and Charlotte Newsom’s story line. The Savage Kings MC-South Carolina is a spin off from the authors’ Savage Kings MC series.

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

Told from dual first person perspectives (Roman and Charlotte) ROMAN follows the building relationship between Savage Kings MC –South Carolina President Roman McNamara and Charlotte Newsom. Five years earlier Charlotte lost her husband Adam to a helicopter crash in Afghanistan. Fast forward to present day wherein Charlotte and her friends are spending a week in Myrtle Beach as part of a bachelorette party for their friend Tessa. A nuisance call to Roman McNamara, co-owner of the beach house where the party is underway, finds our hero mistaken for the hired stripper, a mistake that brings Roman face to face with his late friend’s wife Charlotte. A series of kidnappings and rapes against several women in the Myrtle Beach area pulls Roman and the Savage Kings MC into a search for the people responsible, responsible for hurting Charlotte’s friend Tessa, and at least three other women that they know. What ensues is the building romance and relationship between Charlotte and Roman, and the fall-out as Roman reveals a secret that he promised to keep from Adam’s wife.

Charlotte Newsom believes in soul mates, and believes her soul mate is dead and gone. Meeting Roman McNamara gives Charlotte a hope for a second chance but with it comes the guilt and heart break of a loss she is unable to comprehend. Roman McNamara knows the secrets Adam Newsom took to the grave but Roman promised to never reveal the truth about what happened years before. With Charlotte on the verge of leaving Myrtle Beach, Roman struggles to reveal Adam’s secrets in an effort to open Charlotte’s eyes to the truth about the man with whom she was once in love.

The relationship between Charlotte and Roman is one of immediate attraction but a case of mistaken identity. An invite from Roman to meet him at Fluid, the Savage Kings MC nightclub, finds Charlotte and her friends enjoying another night on the town but when their friend go missing, Charlotte finds herself pulled into the web that is Roman McNamara. Feelings of guilt and pain follow Charlotte with every encounter until Roman is unable to keep secret the truth about the man that she loved. The $ex scenes are intimate, erotic and seductive.

We are introduced to the members of the Savage Kings MC –South Carolina branch: Verek, Winston, Conrad, Hugo and Cannon; Charlotte’s friend Tessa, and Tessa’s fiancé Paul.

ROMAN is a story of secrets and lies, betrayal and heart break, second chances, relationships, survival and love. The premise is edgy and tragic; the romance is provocative and intense; the characters are edgy and energetic.
