ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date December 28, 2019

Gabriel Cross has spent his entire life keeping a secret from his older brother. The tattoo artist all but inked the two words on his flesh, and yet Abe still hasn’t figured it out. Terrified of losing the only family he has left, Gabriel keeps his mouth shut, even though he hates himself for being a coward.

Ian Long loves women. After being locked up for five miserable years, he can’t wait to make up for lost time, all while trying to forget about a certain someone who took care of his needs during weekly visitations. He’s convinced himself that being with Gabriel was a matter of convenience and nothing more.

Gabriel foolishly assumed that his secret affair with Ian would continue once he became a free man. However, Ian doesn’t waste any time hooking up with the first woman he sees at his homecoming party, even doing so right in front of Gabe’s face to prove just how little he meant to him.

Jealous and hurt, Gabe knows it’s time for him to move on. He has to quit waiting for the impossible to happen with Ian and find someone who will give him the unconditional love he craves without having to hide who he is anymore.

But what neither Gabe nor Ian realize is that the woman who comes between them may turn out to be the one who finally brings them together.

This story is for mature readers only and it contains MFM and MM scenes.

••••••••••

REVIEW: GABE AND IAN is the eleventh instalment in Lane Hart and D.B. West’s contemporary, adult SAVAGE KINGS MC erotic, romance series focusing on the members of the Savage Kings MC. This is Savage Kings MC members Ian Long and tattoo artist Gabriel Cross, and para-legal Quincey Cohen’s story line. GABE AND IAN can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty. Any important information from the previous instalments is revealed where necessary.

NOTE: GABE AND IAN is a ménage story with scenes of M/M, M/F, MMF and MFM sexual situations that may not be suitable for all readers.

Told from three first person perspectives (Gabe, Ian and Quincey) GABE AND IAN follows the building relationship between Savage Kings MC members Gabriel Cross and Ian Long, and para-legal Quincey Cohen. Quincey Cohen lost her job, her home, and her self-respect, but with the help of her best friend Peyton (Dalton #6) Quincey jumps into a one-night stand with the recently-released from prison Ian Long, a man who struggles with his attraction to club member Gabriel Cross.

Ian Long was serving a five year prison sentence for trafficking and possession of a fire arm but in the last year his most frequent visitor is the man he blamed for his recent incarceration. Gabriel Cross, in an effort to win favor with Ian Long, offers to procure sexual services but found himself the submissive to the man with whom he will fall in love, a man who refuses to admit his attraction to Cross. Upon his release, Ian refuses to acknowledge his sexual relationship with Gabriel Cross, and proceeds to enter into a relationship with Quincey Cohen. What ensues is the building relationship between Gabriel, Ian and Quincey, and the potential fall-out as Quincey offers to step aside so that Ian and Gabriel can pursue a relationship behind closed doors.

Ian Long has never been attracted to men but a year spent with Gabriel Cross down on his knees found Ian jealous and wanting what he could no longer have. Never intending to enter into a long-term relationship Ian jumped head first into a highly sexual and aggressive affair with Quincey Cohen, an affair that soon included Gabriel Cross.

The relationship between Ian, Gabriel and Quincey is fraught with uncomfortable situations for everyone concerned. Ian refuses to admit his attraction to Gabe, and Quincey finds herself caught between two men who struggle in the face of potential problems with the Savage Kings MC. Jealousy, envy, secrets and lies force Gabe to come out to the Savage Kings MC but in doing so reveals his attraction to a man who would rather remain closeted in an effort to save face. The $ex scenes are energetic, aggressive, forceful and hot.

There is a large ensemble cast of colorful and dynamic secondary and supporting characters including most of the Savage Kings MC. Fearing rejection by his brother Abe, Gabriel Cross would keep his secret until he could no longer deny his attraction to Ian Long.

GABE AND IAN is a story of family, friendship, attraction and love. There is no outside conflict except for the fear of losing the friendship and respect of their fellow MC members. The premise is strong and heart breaking; the romance is raw and gritty; the characters are passionate but challenging.

Cooper (Savage Kings MC #10) by Lane Hart & DB West-a review

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

ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date September 28, 2019

Cooper and Elizabeth Townsend are from two very different worlds – she’s an attorney and he’s an outlaw biker. At first, she was just an escape he needed, but now she’s everything to him, even though their relationship remains a secret.

After his world is blown apart, Cooper is no longer the same man he was before. He’s questioning everything and wondering how the Savage Kings MC are going to fix the mess they made.

It isn’t easy for him to admit that he needs Elizabeth’s help, knowing she’s resisted becoming a part of his life. She just doesn’t think the two of them make sense together. Cooper lives in the constant chaos that Elizabeth tries to control in the courtroom.

Despite the danger, she decides to go all in and do whatever it takes to help Cooper heal.

Unfortunately, no matter how hard he tries, nothing goes Cooper’s way, not with Elizabeth, the MC, or the redemption he desperately seeks.

Trying and failing to do the right thing, Cooper finally submits to his demons, letting them have everything they crave – the violence, vengeance, and destruction because he doesn’t think he has anything else to lose.

Before it’s too late, Elizabeth and the other Kings will have to try and stop Cooper from making a mistake he’ll never come back from.

••••••••

REVIEW: COOPER is the tenth instalment in Lane Hart and DB West’s contemporary, adult SAVAGE KINGS MC erotic, MC romance story line focusing on the Savage Kings MC. This is attorney Elizabeth ‘Liz’ Townsend, and Cooper Cummings’ story line. COOPER can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty. Any important information from the previous story lines is revealed where necessary but I recommend reading the series in order for back story and history as there is an on-going premise throughout.

Told form dual first person perspectives (Liz and Cooper) COOPER follows in the aftermath of the explosion that destroyed Savage Ink tattoo studio, and the Savage Kings MC strip club Avalon, killing a dancer, and severely injuring our story line hero. Two years earlier, Cooper Cummings began a ‘sex’ only affair with his attorney Elizabeth Townsend, but Cooper’s demands for something more push Elizabeth out of his life until desperate times called for desperate measures. The death of Jenna Higgins left her four month old daughter Ruby without a family, and Cooper made it his mission to bring Ruby home into the fold. Needing a ‘marriage of convenience’ in order to adopt Ruby, Cooper asks Liz for her hand in marriage, a marriage to which Liz agrees, in name only. What ensues is the building romance and love between Liz and Cooper, and the potential fall-out as Cooper struggles with what will never be.

Liz Townsend doesn’t do relationships and her ‘sex-only’ affair with Cooper Cummings was exactly what she needed but when Cooper developed feelings for our story line heroine, Liz panicked and kicked Cooper out of her life. Cooper Cummings didn’t know when he started to fall for his beautiful attorney but knew he blew the day he asked for something more. The explosion at the club left Cooper struggling in more ways than one but he never expected to need Liz more than he did at the moment.

The relationship between Liz and Cooper is a friends with benefits that turns into something more. Cooper is willing to risk his heart but Liz struggles with the possibility of destroying her career if caught associating with the Savage Kings MC. The $ex scenes are intimate, erotic and intense, without the use of over the top, sexually graphic language and text.

There is a large ensemble cast of secondary and supporting characters including club president Torin Fury; MC members Chase, Abe, Reece, Dalton, Cedric, Miles, Jade, Ian and Gabe; Liz’s childhood friend Owen, and secretary Barbara. Ian and Gabe’s story line is next.

COOPER is a story of betrayal and vengeance; family, friendship, acceptance and love. The premise is captivating and engaging; the romance is heavy and hot; the characters are energetic, colorful and sassy. If you are a fan of the MC romance genre, I recommend giving the Savage Kings MC a try.

ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date August 2, 2019

I never thought I would be stupid enough to make a deal with the devil, but here I am doing just that.

It’s not like he really gave me a choice. I have to give the Governor what he wants, or he’s going to throw all of my Savage Kings MC brothers into prison for decades.

And what exactly does Governor Satan need from me? That’s the real kicker because he’s insisting that I…date his daughter. No, not just date her. He wants me to convince Isobel to stop spiraling out of control before she ends up dead, or worse – ruin her father’s chance at getting re-elected.

I have no clue why his beautiful wild child is partying her way through life, crossing off items on a mile-long bucket list, and I don’t really care. Somehow, someway, I have to convince her to put down roots and go back to being the picture-perfect good girl her father raised.

As if I’m not in deep enough, I’ve never wanted anyone more than the free-spirit who refuses to spend her short life standing in one place for too long. Too bad Isobel is going to hate my guts when she finds out I’m the asshole who has to lock her back up in a cage.

And if I fail to do so, well, there won’t be an orange jumpsuit waiting for me. I’ll never make it to prison because the Governor dug up all my dirt that I thought I had carefully buried.

If he tells the Kings that I started prospecting with them as a DEA rat ten years ago, they’ll never forgive me.

How could they when I still haven’t forgiven myself?

••••••••••

REVIEW: SAX is the ninth instalment in Lane Hart and DB West’s contemporary, adult SAVAGE KINGS erotic, MC romance series focusing on the Savage Kings MC. This is Savage Kings MC club officer Saxon ‘Sax’ Cole, and twenty-eight year old, nurse/singer Isobel Washington’s story line. SAX can be read as a stand alone without any difficult but I recommend reading the series in order for back story and cohesion.

Told from dual first person perspectives (Sax and Isobel) SAX follows the building relationship between Savage Kings MC club officer Saxon ‘Sax’ Cole, and twenty-eight year old, nurse/singer Isobel Washington. Saxon Cole found himself the target of North Carolina governor Lawrence Washington when the governor demanded a ‘favor’ in return for our hero’s freedom. Running for re-election Governor Washington needs to present himself as a loving family man but his daughter, Isobel Washington, wants nothing to do with her father’s campaign. Estranged for years, Isobel refuses to bow down to her father’s wishes, wishes that will be forced upon her by the man with whom she will fall in love. What ensues is the building relationship between Isobel and Sax, and the potential fall-out when the truth is revealed.

Saxon Cole’s freedom and that of his fellow MC members is dependant upon his ability to ‘coerce’ Isobel back to her father but our heroine wants nothing to do with the man she believes has lied to her throughout her life. On her own, completing a bucket list of things to do, Isobel refused to accept defeat but acceptance will come at a cost. A wild child by nature, Isobel struggles to move on from the past, a past that is slowly destroying her life.

The relationship between Isobel and Saxon is built upon a lie. To protect his fellow brothers Saxon must battle between head and heart when he is forced to push Isobel back to a man she no longer trusts. Having been given the go-ahead to do whatever is necessary, Saxon begins a temporary affair that turns into something more. The $ex scenes are intimate , erotic and intense without the use of over the top, sexually graphic language and text.

There is a large ensemble cast of secondary and supporting characters including several of the previous story line members. We are introduced to Isobel’s father Governor Lawrence Washington, and her former co-worker and pediatric physician Daniel.

SAXON is a story of secrets and lies; betrayal and vengeance; family, friendship, and falling in love. The premise is inviting ; the characters are feisty and sassy; the romance is seductive and provocative.

MILES (Savage Kings MC #8) by Lane Hart & DB West- a review

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

ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date May 18, 2019

Who could ever fall in love with a cold-blooded killer like me?

The answer is no one.

That’s why I’m giving up trying to find a woman who wants me for more than one rowdy night. I’m determined to find a wife instead.

If I buy a mail order bride, then she’ll have no choice but to stick around. Besides, I have plenty of money to spend thanks to all the successful Savage Kings MC legal and outlaw enterprises.

Kira’s the perfect woman, and she’s just as eager as I am to tie the knot. I didn’t ask why she needed half a million dollars; and honestly, I didn’t really care.

Maybe I should have.

A few weeks after Kira becomes my wife, I find myself in the middle of her family’s fallout with the Russian mafia.

When I shoot first and ask questions later, I unknowingly drag the entire MC into the crossfire.

Now the Russians are pissed and are out for blood. But they’ve screwed with the wrong man this time.

The Kings will do whatever it takes to protect their own, no matter the consequences.

And now that Kira is mine, I’ll gladly kill anyone who tries to hurt her.

••••••••••

REVIEW: MILES is the eight instalment in the contemporary, adult SAVAGE KINGS MC erotic, MC romance series co-authored by Lane Hart and DB West. This is thirty-four year old, former US Marine sniper and MC member Miles Taylor, and twenty-three year old Kira’ story line. MILES can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty. Any important information from the previous instalments is revealed where necessary. There is a slight cross-over with the author’s OUT OF THE CAGE series.

Told from dual first person perspectives (Kira and Miles) MILES follows the ‘mail-order bride’ in exchange for money between thirty-four year old, former US Marine sniper and MC member Miles Taylor, and twenty-three year old Kira. Miles is lonely, and his desperation for a wife or significant other grows with each new relationship in the Savage Kings MC. Finding an available bride on line brings Miles up close and personal with a twenty three year old woman named Kira, a woman who is desperate to pay down her father’s debt to the Russian Mob. What ensues is the building but fractured relationship between Miles and Kira, and the potential fall-out as the mob targets Miles and the Savage Kings MC.

Miles Taylor battles with sins of the past, and believes no woman will accept the darkness within. Completely oblivious as to the how and what of a long-term relationship, but fiercely protective, Miles struggles as a husband and partner to the woman with whom he will fall in love. Kira only wants to help her struggling parents but a debt owed to the Russian Mob finds our heroine caught between her head and her heart. Never expecting to fall in love, Kira is suddenly thrown into the world of the Savage Kings MC when the mob demands more than her father can afford.

The relationship between Kira and Miles is one of immediate attraction but a relationship based upon desperation and lust. Miles has no idea how to be a husband or provider; Kira struggles with the possibility of a loveless marriage to a man she doesn’t know. Their lack of communication and misunderstanding is inevitable and heart breaking. The $ex scenes are intimate, erotic and intense.

There is a large ensemble cast of colorful secondary and supporting characters including many of the previous storyline couples. We are introduced to Kira’s parents: and Ivan (Out of the Cage #2), head of the East Coast Irish and Italian mafia.

MILES is a story of family and blood; of desperation and vengeance; of loneliness and longing. The premise is energetic; the characters are dynamic ; the romance is spicy and spirited. MILES is dramatic and passionate story in the Savage Kings MC series.

REECE (Savage Kings MC #7) by Lane Hart & D.B. West-a review

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

ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date March 16, 2019.

Former military specialist and recluse Reece Hunt takes his job of protecting the Savage Kings MC very seriously. When one of their regular girls go missing, he won’t rest until he tracks her down and makes sure she’s safe.

While Cynthia Collins has loved every second she has spent with the Savage Kings, the problem is that none of the men have ever really cared for her. The guys are all starting to settle down and she’s not getting any younger. Whatever hope Cynthia had of becoming one of the Kings’ old ladies is quickly dwindling as she gets ready to turn thirty; that’s why she decides that it’s time to give up the club life in search of more.

After Reece shows up on Cynthia’s doorstep, her plan of leaving the MC may unknowingly become more difficult than she expected.

For reasons Reece can’t even understand, he begins sabotaging Cynthia’s plan of dating men who don’t ride Harleys or wear leather to try and lure her back to the club.

When Cynthia finds out what Reece has been up to, he’ll have to either put up or shut up. It’s been more than a decade since he let himself fall for a woman, and he’s not sure if he’s ready to go down that bumpy road again. Besides, he doesn’t have time for any distractions from monitoring the club’s security.

Reece has apparently forgotten that sometimes love has a way of knocking even the most stubborn men off their feet, whether they’re ready for it or not.

••••••••••

REVIEW:  REECE is the seventh instalment in the contemporary adult, SAVAGE KINGS MC erotic, MC romance series co-authored by Lane Hart and D.B. West. This is thirty-six year old IT specialist Reece Hunt, and thirty-year old, adult toy shop owner Cynthia Collins Smith’s story line.  REECE 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 (Cynthia and Reece) REECE follows the building relationship between thirty-six year old Savage King’s IT specialist Reece Hunt, and thirty year old adult toy shop owner and former Club wh*re Cynthia Collins Smith.  Three years earlier Cynthia arrived at the Savage King’s MC looking for help and protection from her abusive spouse. Fast forward to present day wherein Cynthia is tired of being passed around as the Club wh*re, and is hoping to walk away from the life she had grown to love but Reece Hunt, a man who never spared her a second glance, is worried about our story line heroine, the woman with whom he will fall in love. What ensues is the building relationship between Reece and Cynthia, and the potential fall-out as Cynthia’s past comes looking for revenge.

Reece Hunt has lusted after Cynthia Collins from the first day that they met but was unwilling to ‘use’ our heroine the same way the other men used the whores at the club. Biding his time, Reece thinks he is too late when Cynthia disappears only to discover that Cynthia no longer wants to be known as the Club house wh*re. Cynthia Collins has been hiding in plain sight for close to three years. With the help of Reece Hunt, Cynthia has a new identity, and a possible future away from her abusive husband.

The relationship between Cynthia and Reece begins as a case of unrequited love. Cynthia had no idea that Reece felt anything but contempt or dislike, having never made a move on our story line heroine. Hoping to make up for the past three years, Reece agrees to Cynthia’s terms of ten dates, ten dates wherein our couple will get to know one another. The $ex scenes are intimate erotic, and intense.

Several of the previous story line couples play secondary and supporting characters but Miles has gotten himself into a bit of trouble landing the MC in the direct line of fire with the Russian mob. Miles and Kira’s story line is next.

REECE is a story of betrayal and vengeance; passion and romance. The premise is fast paced and engaging; the romance is flirty and fun; the characters are energetic and seductive.

DALTON
(Savage Kings MC #6)
by Lane Hart & DB West
Genre: Adult, contemporary, erotic, MC, romance

ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date January 8, 2019

ATF Agent Bradley never suspected that the pretty, charismatic bastard was actually an unrepentant thief, born to be an outlaw.

•••••••

REVIEW: DALTON is the sixth instalment in the contemporary, adult SAVAGE KINGS MC erotic, MC, romance story line focusing on the men and women of the Savage Kings MC, co-authored by Lane Hart and DB West . This is Savage Kings MC treasurer Dalton Brady, and ATF agent Peyton Bradley’s story line.

NOTE: DALTON can be found in the multi-authored WANTED: AN OUTLAW ANTHOLOGY.

Told from dual first person perspectives (Dalton and Peyton) DALTON follows ATF Agent Peyton Bradley as she is tasked with uncovering the truth behind a number of gang related murders tied to the New Bern Savage Kings, MC. An almost one-night stand with a local attorney finds our heroine grovelling when her all-important laptop is stolen by her sexy and beautiful online Tinder connection. Enter Savage Kings MC treasurer Dalton Brady, and the man who tugs at our heroine’s heart. What ensues is the secret relationship between Dalton and Peyton, and the potential fall-out as Peyton’s investigation draws to a close, and the Savage Kings MC have no idea if charges are forthcoming.

Peyton Bradley has been assigned the unenviable task of uncovering the who, what and why of a series of murders, including the death of cartel drug kingpin Hector Cruz, indirectly related to the Savage Kings MC. What Peyton never expected was to fall for the beautifully handsome Savage Kings treasurer, a man who is all kinds of wrong, with or without her connection to the current investigation. Dalton Bradley doesn’t do relationships, especially a relationship with the ATF but his heart wants the woman who could inevitably destroy his entire life, and the lives of the people he loves.

The relationship between Dalton and Peyton begins as a lie; a Tinder hook-up wherein Dalton, pretending to be someone else, goes for more than a one-night stand, but a possible take down of the ATF agent. Peyton knows that to get involved with Dalton could spell the end of her career; and Dalton is warned that Peyton could be the death of them all. The $ex scenes are erotic, seductive and intense; the sexual attraction is palpable and hot.

The secondary characters are limited. We are re-introduced to the Savage Kings President Torin Fury, Club VP and Torin’s brother Chase Fury ,former military tech genius Reece ; Peyton’s friend Quincey; and Dalton’s ailing father Rubin Brady.

The world building continues to look at the fallout of the Savage King MC’s war with the Aces MC, and Cartel drug kingpin Hector Cruz. Although Hector is no longer a threat, the threat comes from the law.

DALTON is an engaging and spirited story line. The premise is moving; the romance is provocative; the characters are animated and colorful. DALTON is a spicy and passionate addition to the Savage Kings MC series.

ABOUT THE BOOK : Release Date January 4, 2019

Who the hell is Deacon Fury?

That’s the question I asked myself when I was fifteen and saw his name on my birth certificate for the first time.

Deacon Fury may be long gone from this world, but at least he left behind a legacy – the Savage Kings MC.

Deep down, I knew that I was destined to become a King too. That’s what brought me to Emerald Isle four years ago.

And after putting in the hard work, I’m a breath away from patching in, becoming a brother.

That is, until she took my breath away.

One of my final orders as a prospect was to find Audrey O’Neil and keep her safe during the hurricane that devastated the coast.

War is not only my sponsor, he’s been like a father to me since I first came to town. Now, I’m falling for his sister, and if War finds out, he’ll kill me.

But how am I supposed to choose between following in my father’s footsteps with the MC or being with the one woman who makes me feel like I’m already a Savage King?

This is the fifth book in the Savage Kings MC series, but it can be read as a standalone.

••••••••••

REVIEW: MADDOX is the fifth instalment in Lane Hart and DB West’s contemporary, adult SAVAGE KINGS MC erotic, romance series focusing on the members of the Savage Kings MC. This is Savage Kings MC prospect Maddox ‘Mad Dog’ Holmes (aka Fury), and college student Audrey O’Neil’s story line. MADDOX can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty. Any important information from the previous story lines is revealed where necessary but I recommend reading the series in order for back story and cohesion.

NOTE: MADDOX contains scenes of torture that may not be suitable for some readers.

Told from dual first person perspectives (Maddox and Audrey) MADDOX follows the building but forbidden relationship between twenty-one year old Savage Kings MC prospect Maddox ‘Mad Dog’ Holmes (aka Maddox Fury), and college student Audrey O’Neil. When a hurricane descends upon Wilmington, North Carolina, Savage Kings MC Man- at –Arms Warren ‘War’ O’Neil calls upon prospect Maddox Holmes to rescue his sister Audrey from potential danger, a woman who doesn’t want rescuing and refuses to leave her college apartment. What ensues is the quick building sexual relationship between Maddox and Audrey as Audrey stubbornly denies the truth about her identity, and the potential fall-out as Audrey’s past history with men pushes Maddox to run, and the threat of death from our heroine’s brother.

Audrey O’Neil uses $ex to get what she wants but her history with men will threaten what little semblance of control she has over her life. Blackmail and intimidation from the men in charge reinforces the hidden danger for a woman trying to survive in a world controlled by men. Six years earlier, a then fifteen year old Maddox Holmes discovered he was the bastard son of the late Deacon Fury- the founder and former president of the Savage Kings MC. A stint in military school, and his on-going hatred towards his mother for her secrets and lies, finds Maddox searching for the people and life his father once loved.

The relationship between Maddox and Audrey begins acrimoniously. Maddox is assigned to look after our heroine but Audrey refuses to confess her identity demanding $ex and companionship before revealing the truth. Caught between duty and lust, Maddox takes advantage of what Audrey offers but in doing so places them both in a compromising situation. The $ex scenes are intimate, erotic and seductive.

The secondary and supporting characters include several members of the Savage Kings MC including president Torin Fury, VP Chase Fury, Man at Arms Warren O’Neill and his significant other Nova, computer hacker and IT specialist Reese, as well as a number of potential prospects.

MADDOX is an animated, spicy and spirited storyline. The premise is startling; the romance is energetic; the characters are colorful, sassy and sensitive. MADDOX is a story of family, friendship, courage and love.

CHASE (Savage Kings MC #1) by Lane Hart and DB West-a review

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

NOTE: CHASE will be FREE for a limited time  June 25 and June 26, 2018

ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date June 26, 2018

Chase Fury, the VP of the Savage Kings MC has dealt with his fair share of tragedy over the years. He never wanted the responsibility that comes with being at the head of the table, preferring to leave that to his brother, Torin. But after an unexpected attack on the Kings sends his brothers on a path of vengeance, Chase will have no choice but to take on the burden of being the man in charge.

Reporter Sasha Sheridan has steered clear of any and all bad boy bikers wearing the bearded skull for the last ten years. While investigating a story, she suddenly finds herself back in the cross-hairs of the Savage Kings. Uncovering the secrets that the club’s president is trying to keep hidden may very well put her life in danger. She may be able to handle the threat, but she can’t escape the man who broke her heart.

Chase hasn’t forgiven himself for hurting Sasha and causing her an unbelievable amount of pain. He still wears her name on his chest, a reminder of the night that he wrecked his bike and everything the two of them had together. Now, with secrets, lies, bloodshed, and violence causing chaos in the club, Chase is determined to use his second chance with Sasha to keep her safe. He never imagined that the best way to do that would be to get her as far away from him and the MC as possible

••••••••••••

REVIEW: CHASE is the first instalment in the contemporary, adult SAVAGE KINGS MC erotic, MC, romance series co-authored by Lane Hart and DB West. This is twenty-seven year old Savage Kings vice president Chase Fury, and reporter Sasha Sheridan’s story line. There is a slight cross-over with the author’s PLAYING DIRTY series.

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

Told from dual first person points of view (Chase and Sasha) CHASE follows the second chance romance between Savage Kings vice president Chase Fury, and reporter Sasha Sheridan. Ten years earlier, high school sweethearts Chase Fury and Sasha Sheridan were the victims of a drunk-driving accident that resulted in months of recovery for our leading heroine but a recovery without the man that she loved. Fast forward to present day wherein a more matured, and hardened Chase Fury must face his past, the woman who blamed him when everything went wrong, but a woman he hasn’t stopped loving for close to ten years. What ensues is the quick, rebuilding relationship between Chase and Sasha, and the fall-out as the Savage Kings MC is targeted by Hector Cruz and the local drug cartel leaving heart breaking death, betrayal and vengeance in its wake.

Sasha Sheridan never knew the truth that destroyed her relationship with Chase Fury. Ten years earlier, facing a long recovery without the man that she loved forced our heroine to move on with her life, a path towards journalism and the respect she deserved. Chase Fury is a sexy, bearded and tattooed biker who has spent the last decade angry at the world but a decade spent growing within the ranks of the Savage Kings MC.

The relationship between Chase and Sasha is one of second chances; a rekindling romance between two people torn apart by secrets and lies but a romance that is quick to restart once the ghosts from the past have been exorcised and pushed aside. The $ex scenes are intimate, erotic, and provocative.

We are introduced to a large number of colorful secondary and supporting characters including the members of the Savage Kings MC: Chase’s brother and club president Torin Fury, his wife Kennedy, and their step-sister Jade; Chase’s best friend and right hand man Abe, and his brother, tattoo artist Gabriel; club members Turtle ; MC secretary Sax, treasurer Dalton, tech guy Reece, Sergeant in Arms War, Cooper, Fast Eddie, enforcer Miles, and Sergeant Barnes. A cameo appearance by Kennedy’s sister Kelsey and the two men in her life (Eligible Receivers-Playing Dirty #4) tie the two series together. The requisite evil has many faces including meth kingpin Hector Cruz.

The world building focuses on the rekindling relationship between Chase and Sasha, as well as the friendships, strengths and failings of the Savage Kings MC. There is a war on the horizon; retribution and revenge at the forefront-a battle that will see many more loss of lives.

CHASE is a character driven, dramatic and heart breaking story line of loyalty, misunderstanding, forgiveness, betrayal and revenge. The premise is raw, realistic, gripping and tragic; the romance is compelling and seductive; the characters are sassy, charismatic and spirited.
