REVIEW: CROW is the first instalment in Nikki Landis’ contemporary, adult DEVIL’S MURDER MC slightly paranormal, erotic, MC romance series focusing on the members of the Devil’s Murder MC. This is new club president Austin “Crow’ Holmes Jr, and bartender Bella Hart’s story line. There is a slight cross-over with the multi-authored RBMC series.
NOTE: Due to the nature of the story line premise, there may be triggers for more sensitive readers.
Told from dual first person perspectives (Bella and Crow) CROW follows in the aftermath of the murder of Crow’s father Austin ‘Rook’ Holmes Sr, the former president of the Devil’s Murder MC. Upon his return to Vegas, Crow makes a quick stop at a local bar where he will meet his future, his mate in the guise of Bella Hart, a woman who is struggling with the abduction of her sister Brianna. Bella is being blackmailed, and her target is the Devil’s Murder MC new president Crow but Bella knows that to keep the darkness secret could mean the death of everyone she knows. What ensues is the quick building relationship and claiming between Crow and Bella, and the fall-out as the Devil’s Murder MC are about to go to war with a one-time enemy.
Austin ‘Crow’ Holmes, and the members of the Devil’s Murder MC have supernatural powers. Each has a ‘familiar’, a crow that protects and does the bidding of the Devil’s Murder MC. With the aid of the crows, Austin is able to take down some of the people responsible for abducting and abusing Bella’s sister Brianna but a hidden USB stick will reveal the dangerous secrets of some very powerful people.
The relationship between Bella and Crow is one of immediate attraction. Crow believes Bella is their mate but Bella is hiding a dangerous and dark secret, a secret that is directly connected to the Devil’s Murder MC. With threats against Bella’s sister, the MC enacts a plan to take down the people in charge. The $ex scenes are limited but erotic and intense without the use of over the top, sexually graphic language and text.
We are introduced to the Devil’s Murder MC: VP Raven; Cuckoo, Talon, Carrion, Hawk, Claw, their healer Falcon, IT specialist Eagle Eye, prospect Red, as well as several members of the RBMC Tonopath. Raven and Brianna’s story line is next.
CROW is a story of death and destruction, power and control, secrets and deception, acceptance and love. The fast paced premise is intriguing and entertaining; the romance is fated and seductive; the characters are powerful and magical.

REVIEW: RAVEN is the second instalment in Nikki Landis’ contemporary, adult DEVIL’S MURDER MC slight paranormal, erotic, MC romance series. This is club VP Asmon aka Raven, and twenty-six year old, receptionist Brianna ‘Bree’ Hart’s story line. RAVEN can be read as a stand alone but for back story and cohesion I recommend reading book one CROW. Some of the events of RAVEN cross over with, and run parallel to the events of book one CROW. Brianna Hart is Bella Hart’s (CROW) sister. There is a slight cross-over with the multi-authored RBMC series.
NOTE: Due to the nature of the story line premise, there may be triggers for more sensitive readers.
Told from dual first person perspectives (Raven and Bree) using present day and memories from the past, RAVEN follows in the building relationship between club VP Asmon aka Raven, and twenty-six year old, receptionist Brianna ‘Bree’ Hart. Ten years earlier after the death of his unborn son, Raven found himself out in a storm, rescuing the woman that would one day become his mate. Five years later, having buried another loved one, Raven would, once again, come face to face Brianna as she buried her grandmother, another fated meeting that would pull our couple into the present. Bella Hart (Bree’s sister) had ‘infiltrated’ the Devil’s Murder MC in the hopes of getting help for her missing sister but Raven and the DMMC had no idea as to the identity of the missing young woman, the woman that would call to Raven’s heart and his ‘crow’. Following the search and rescue of our story line heroine, Raven struggled with attraction to the woman he would one day call mate but Bree battled her demons on a nightly basis, until the reality had her facing them all over again. What ensues is the building relationship between Bree and Raven, and the potential fall-out as the past returns in an effort to reclaim our story line heroine.
Brianna Hart discover information about her boss, the Mayor, and in the process of amassing as much information as she could, found herself the victim of an abduction, torture and r*pe. Upon her rescue, Bree needed to turn over the information to the FBI but the agent is now missing, and Bree has been targeted once again. Meanwhile, Raven battles between head and heart knowing Bree needs more time to come to terms with what happened but Raven’s crow is desperate to claim Bree as their mate but someone else is coming to claim what doesn’t belong.
The relationship between Bree and Raven begins ten years earlier when Raven rescued Bree from a burning car. Fast forward ten years, and once again, Raven finds himself Bree’s savior and rescuer, a message from the crows that Bree is his mate. Raven and the Devil’s Murder MC all have the ability to talk and see through the crows, crows that will do their bidding when the time is called. The $ex scenes are intimate and passionate -but beware the scenes of assault are graphic and hard.
We are re-introduced to the Devil’s Murder MC: President Crow and his old lady Bella, Cuckoo, Talon, Carrion, Hawk, Claw, their healer Falcon, IT specialist Eagle Eye, as well as several members of the RBMC Tonopath, and Bree’s best friend Callie. The requisite evil has many faces.
RAVEN is a story of betrayal and vengeance, power and control, abuse and torture, acceptance, healing and love. The premise is dark, gritty and may be difficult for some; the age-gap romance is limited to Raven’s protection of, and claiming of our story line heroine; the characters are charismatic and strong.
