ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date September 17, 2014

Matthew “Val” Taylor, the Road Captain in the club, was introduced to sex at an early age. Saved from the streets by the club’s Enforcer and President years ago, Val now lives for women and the open road. Until the night the only woman he’s ever loved is almost killed. Val determines to change his ways and be the man Zoann Donovan should have and the father their son deserves.

Zoann has loved Val for a long time. Violence and bitter betrayal forces her to ignore her feelings and distance herself not only from the sexy RC, but her beloved brother, too. Until she discovers the truth. Can Zoann ever be forgiven for all the pain she’s caused? Will Val overcome his own demons and have a future with her and their son? Who will survive in an MC filled with lust and revenge, love and hate?

Warning: This is a tale of rape, murders, deception, heartache, lies, and infidelity. The road to redemption is a tumultuous struggle where only the strong survive and justice is served…Outlaw-style.

REVIEW

5 out of 5 for this reader folks!

Responsible reviewer alert. This is a hard core motorcycle club series. You WILL find extreme language, violence, drug use, lots of sex, abuse, severe angst, and lots of “OMG did that just happen?” moments. You WILL also find some incredible characters, family bonds that run crazy deep, yummy hot bikers who like their naughty and love deep, tough woman who love their tough men and a story line so completely engaging that you will have trouble putting this book down.

Man Kathryn Kelly, you write one hell of a book. Misbehaviour is the third book (with some amazing novellas in between) of the Death Dwellers MC series. This story focuses on Matthew “Val” Taylor and Zoann Donovan (the Prez’s sister). These two are so damaged together and apart, it’s a wonder if they ever really find their way. With a child already born and another on the way, it’s incredible the lengths that these two go to hurt the other and then on the other page love each other. It’s such a contrast … but some how it adds to this brilliant storyline.

The book goes into the past and while some secrets were revealed in the previous books, this time Kathryn takes us into the gut wrenching depths. I tell you, knowing what happened in the past and then reading a first person POV is completely different. Zoann has been a serious bitch in the past few books and many times I wanted to smack her .. but after reading her story I wanted to just give her a big hug. Same goes with Val. We are taken back into present time where the last book left off and all the other pivotal characters have a strong presence. There are people that want to take the Death Dwellers down and our bikers will go to great lengths to protect their club.

I am not going into any details of this book as there is so much and it’s such a complicated story line. You absolutely need to read the first books of this series. I will say that while there is so much ugly, it only highlights the pretty all that much more. I will warn you .. if you are an emotional reader like I am, then you will be absolutely exhausted after reading this. I joke with Kathryn Kelly that I have to get into a certain mind set to read one of her books .. by the end I feel like I have been on a roller coaster in hell and heaven and I need to read a a gushy fairytale to sort me out. LOL

If you can handle the grit and grime please give this series a go. It’s so unique than other MC series out there and I applaud Kathryn Kelly for going to certain places that other authors will not go to. Thank you for another amazing book that once again leaves me wanting for more. Thank you for making me fall in love with so perfectly imperfect characters. THANK YOU!

Death Dwellers Series

5 out of 5 for this reader folks!

OK! Harder book review to write, simply because this is one of the grittiest motorcycle club (MC) series I have ever read. I do have to write a small disclaimer here as this is certainly the farthest from PG reading one can get. If you are squimish and/or sensitive (keep reading to find out what there is to be squimish about) in the least, take a pass on this series. If you are open to reading about harsh violence, rape, language, law breaking, controversial everything, hot biker dudes that are serious bad ass, tight brotherhood and a storyline that just keeps you page flipping or screen swiping, then you may want to check this out. I am a boundary pushing reader and appreciate an author who will lay it all out and not apologize for it. Well Kathryn Kelly does all of this in her Death Dwellers MC Series. I LOVE THIS RAW READ, will reread and anticipate future releases. My shock buttons were most assuredly pushed and while I am not by any means “in the know” of how MC clubs are truely ran, I would dare say this may be a little more accurate than some of the “rainbow glitter” versions out there (which BTW are quite a great read as well and ones I enjoy more than often).

Now I hope I haven’t scared you off, but there is a need to be honest. This series really rocked my world and the “WOW, the author went there!” factor was in the forefront.

The Death Dweller series by Kathryn Kelly is about the Death Dweller motorcycle club consisting of men and woman that live their lives according to a brotherhood and a code. Their lives are drenched in violence, they march to the beat of their own drum, live by their own laws, are in constant conflict, engage in drugs and alcohol and in the midst of it all, are hooking up with their future “old lady”.

Death Dwellers MC #1

Genre: adult, contemporary, erotica, violence, motorcycle club

Amazon.com / Amazon.ca / Amazon.uk/ Barnes and Noble /

DESCRIPTION-Release Date December 5, 2013

He deals in a world of violence, sex, drugs, and crudity. As president of the Death Dwellers’ MC, Christopher “Outlaw” Caldwell presides over a club in chaos after the death of their longtime president and his mentor, Joseph “Boss” Foy.

Megan Foy runs from her abusive stepfather, hoping for her daddy’s intervention to save her and get her terrified mother away before it’s too late. Only problem is, she soon discovers her beloved daddy is dead and the man who killed him is the man she’s falling in love with.

Warning: FOR MATURE AUDIENCES ONLY. CONTAINS PHYSICAL ABUSE, VIOLENCE, RAPE, AND EXCESSIVE PROFANITY.

REVIEW

Megan Foy has not lived a life most woman would brag about. She is the daughter of the former president of The Death Dwellers MC. While she has lived away from the club, she has been a victim of abuse by her stepfather. Finally pushed to leave her home, Megan goes to find her father for help. When she runs into the new president Christopher “Outlaw” Caldwell, she is stunned to discover that her father is dead. While there is chemistry between Megan and Outlaw, there are too many factors that prevent Outlaw from claiming Megan as his “old lady”. The biggest factor is that Outlaw is responsible for her father’s death. This doesn’t mean he isn’t claiming Megan every other way and keeping her close to his side. This is a tumultuous time for the club with war on the horizon and betrayal so large that one needs to concentrate on surviving before one can start living.

DESCRIPTION-Release Date February 14, 2014

Megan Foy is finally getting the big wedding she’s dreamed of. With her new child and the affection of the brothers of the Death Dwellers’ MC, her life is settling down. However, a new threat rides into town and targets Christopher “Outlaw” Caldwell, forcing him to re-evaluate his life once more and endangering everyone. Most of all, it threatens Meggie’s newfound peace.

REVIEW

Well, once Outlaw decides to claim Megan it’s “all in” with the baby and the wedding. Megan is realizing how much her life has changed when she faces the challenges of being the The Death Dwellers presidents “old lady”, mother to the treasured “little man”, and trying to plan her wedding and get all her hard ass MC biker boys in tuxedos. On top of all this, her mother is acting like an idiot stick and Outlaws dad is back in town and trying to get rid of her. With the odds stacked against her, Megan rises up and shows her new family just what she is made of … rainbows and unicorns have no place here! LOL

DESCRIPTION-release date April 16, 2014

John Donovan has been left in charge of the Death Dwellers’ MC while the club president is on his honeymoon. With six days left till Outlaw’s return and smooth sailing so far, trouble suddenly bubbles up. As the clock ticks, he’s determined to bring everything under control.
Kendall Miller, an attorney and the ex-girlfriend of another MC president, is in deep problems. When her little sister is taken by her ex, she needs to supply information to a man who is frantic for information on the highest ranking members of Johnnie’s club. When she suddenly shows up at the clubhouse and arouses the suspicions of a very handsome blond biker, she finds herself being taken as his prisoner.
Evil is all around them. To save herself and her sister, Kendall has to rely on the man she betrayed. To save his club, Johnnie has to trust Kendall’s story. Before it’s too late. Because lives will be lost and hearts will be broken.
WARNING: This isn’t an easy or light read. Please be advised. The way to Johnnie’s and Kendall’s resolution involves death, violence, destruction, a sexual assault scene and suicide.

REVIEW

Johnnie … SIGH! Yup he is the yummy biker. We met him in book 1 as he is Outlaws cousin, a member of the Death Dwellers, but he was raised educated, a more “proper” than his biker brothers. Although considered refined, he is still all bad biker. Now the VP, he is acting P when Megan and Outlaw are on their honeymoon and the quiet couple of weeks he was hoping for are nothing but a wish. You know what is about to hit the fan, and it all surrounds the mysterious woman that had offered to become the clubs lawyer. Kendall is the ex-girlfriend of an opposing club, and soon finds herself having to do things she wouldn’t dream of doing in order to save her sister. This means infiltrating the Death Dwellers and engaging the VP. Well while the flames are fanned between John and Kendall, a whole bunch of violence and trouble comes between them, leaving them with the doubt that things could ever work between them.

I really had trouble putting this series down. There are some serious LOL moments and the things that come out of these bikers mouths are at times nothing short of hilarious. There was also never a real HEA, more like HFN, but considering the lifestyle the HEA just wouldn’t fit. The sex is hot, the language crude and the grit REALLY GRITTY! Loved IT! 🙂
