ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date NOVEMBER 7, 2025

One free spirit. One wandering man. And their journey for answers.

Keeping to myself is how I roll.
I’m not about to get embroiled in all the drama and chaos this club endures.
Training with the club’s enforcer keeps me busy and on my toes,
And always on guard.
I know how to read a room and access all situations,
Keeping my composure and calming the others.

But when I meet Halo,
A wandering man,
I’m drawn to him in ways I never expected.
No part of me can resist him.
His quiet demeanor with his fascinating intelligence hooks me from the start.
My sisters at the club think otherwise.
Suspicious of him, they’re all on guard,
Creating friction among us.

And when my twin sister goes missing without a trace,
Right before the MMM25 signing,
The wandering man is their prime suspect,
Yet, I know better.
His name may be Halo, and he’s certainly no saint.
Will he prove once and for all that he’s my guardian angel?

REVIEW:RUNNING FREE is the third instalment in DM Earl’s contemporary, adult RUNNING dark, MC series, a spin off set in the author’s DEVIL’S HANDMAIDENS series, a part of the multi-authored Mayhem Makers world which originally focused on the fictional Motorcycles, Mobsters and Mayhem author’s book signing blending fact with fiction as many of the participating authors in the series have cameos including DM Earl. .This is Dottie aka Storm, and Benji aka Halo’s story line. RUNNING FREE can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty. Any important information form the previous story lines is revealed where necessary.

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

Told from several first person perspectives including Storm, Dani, Halo, Heartbreaker, and Glory, RUNNING FREE follows in the aftermath of the arrival of our story line hero. Benjamin ‘Halo’ Dawson is a former Delta Force soldier but three years of torture, as a POW in the Middle East has left Halo a shell of his former self. Seeking shelter with the Blue Sky Sanctuary, n Timber-Wolf Montana, Halo finds himself surrounded by several members of the Devil’s Handmaidens MC and Grimm Wolves MC including our story line heroine. Dottie, along with her twin sister Dani, were previously rescued from a religious cult, and found themselves prospecting for the Devil’s Handmaidens MC but the arrival of Halo brings with it demons from the past, demons that are determined to reclaim Storm and her twin.

The world building focuses on the return of the Thunder Cloud Knuck Brotherhood, an organization that is dangerous and evil who run a human trafficking ring. In the wake of Halo’s arrival, so too do the demons from the past, as Dani and Dottie, once again must outrun the people determined to destroy their lives, taking aim at the man with whom Storm will fall in love.

The relationship between Storm and Halo begins as a friendship as Halo struggles to let go of the past. Scarred both inside and out, Halo battles to trust, his worthiness, as well as his attraction to a woman who has a target on her back. There are no $ex scenes.

There is a large ensemble cast of colorful, familiar and determined secondary and supporting characters from several of the author’s interconnected MC series. We are introduced to Dani and Dottie’s extended family: Noah, Matty, Esther, Dr. Mal and Dr. Cora. The requisite evil has many faces.

RUNNING FREE is a fast paced, quick read focusing on power and control, betrayal and vengeance, family and relationships, acceptance and forgiveness. The character driven premise is dark and dramatic; the characters are edgy and desperate; there is limited romance as Halo struggles to heal. RUNNING FREE ends on a happily ever atter -for now. The overall conflict has yet to be resolved.
