REVIEW: REBEL is the eighth instalment in DM Earl’s contemporary, adult DEVIL’S HANDMAIDENS MC: Timber-Ghost Montana dark, erotic, MC romance series. This is Devil’s Handmaidens SAA Mya ‘Rebel’Mikowlowski, and single father and OB-GYN Dr. Atlas Gianopoulos’ story line. REBEL can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty. Any important information from the previous story lines is revealed where necessary.

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

Told from several first person perspectives (Atlas, Rebel, Shadow, Yoggie, Heartbreaker) REBEL follows the building romance and relationship between Devil’s Handmaidens SAA Mya ‘Rebel’ Mikowlowski, and single father and OB-GYN Dr. Atlas Gianopoulos. Devil’s Handmaiden MC’s IT specialist Raquel ‘Que’ aka Taz is heavily pregnant and goes into labor at the MC owned Fitness & Holistic Center wherein Rebel will come face to face with her future in the guise of Dr. Atlas Gianopoulos, an OB-GYN who just happens to be in the area with his three young sons. A healthy baby, an invite to dinner, and Dr. Atlas finds himself falling for a woman who doesn’t do relationships, a woman with a dark and heart breaking past but all does not go according to plan when Atlas’ past returns; the Thunder Could Knuckle Brotherhood continues to reign havoc, and the people in Atlas’ life find themselves targeted. As Atlas struggles with what happened and why, our hero begins to push everyone out of his life, including the woman with whom he has fallen in love.

The world building focuses on the rescue and recovery of abuse victims, most of whom are under the age of sixteen. Not everyone will make it out alive, some will suffer for the rest of their lives, and mental health advocacy is the primary objective once the body has begun to heal.

The relationship between Rebel and Atlas is one of immediate attraction but Rebel doesn’t do relationships, and Atlas’s refuses to let go. As Rebel begins to bond with Atlas’s three teen and pre-teen sons, she finds herself thinking about a future, a family and a home. The $ex scenes are intimate and passionate.

There is a large ensemble cast of colorful, energetic and familiar secondary and supporting characters, many of whom we have met in previous instalments including the Intruders MC, as well as many of the author’s other series : the Grimm Wolves MC, and the multi-authored Mayhem Makers series. We are introduced to Atlas’ sons Konstantin, Thanos and Stefanos; as well as Atlas’s parents Athena and Apollo Giannopoulos, and several survivors of sexual trafficking. The requisite evil has many faces.

REBEL is a story of power and control, abuse and terror, family and relationships, forgiveness, healing and love. The premise is dark, dramatic and gritty with difficult scenes; the romance is provocative; the characters are desperate, determined, charismatic and memorable.

HEED the trigger warnings, they are numerous, dark and upsetting.

ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date January 14, 2025

Firefighter Lourdes “Styx” Boyd loves her job and saving people. But when she picks up a crazy and obsessive stalker after an arson call, her life is suddenly in jeopardy. No stranger to deranged stalkers, Styx can hold her own against the enemies who threaten her. After all, her military training and expertise comes in handy quite often.

The owner of the building that’s engulfed in flames sees a familiar spark in the feisty fire fighter that he can’t ignore. Wealthy businessman Jeremiah Zeon refuses to let anything happen to her for reasons he’s afraid to recognize. Now, Jeremiah and Styx work together to keep her stalker at bay. But when the stalker sets his sights on Jeremiah too, they can’t seem to extinguish the stalker’s desire to destroy them both. Should they ignite the fire between them again while trying to stop the arsonist from burning down everyone and everything they hold dear?

••••••

REVIEW: LOURDES’S SENTINEL by DM Earl is a contemporary, adult, dark, romantic suspense story line set in the multi-authored POLICE & FIRE: OPERATION ALPHA, series with characters originally introduced by author Susan Stoker. This is billionaire businessman Jeremiah ‘Miah’ Zeon, and firefighter Lourdes ‘Styx’ Boyd’s story line. LOURDES’S SENTINEL can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty. Any important information from the previous instalments is revealed where necessary. LOURDES’S SENTINEL also crosses over with the author’s APPALACHIAN STAR and DEVIL’S HANDMAIDENS MC series.

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

Told from dual first person perspectives (Lourdes and Jeremiah) LOURDES’S SENTINEL follows in the wake of an attack against our story line heroine. Months earlier, Lourdes Boyd and Jeremiah Zeon attempted a sexual relationship but in the ensuing time, life and work got in the way. A fire at the newly constructed Zeon Financial Building finds our heroine a victim of an attack, and the resulting physical injuries force Lourdes under the guardianship of our story line hero but all is not well when a stalker takes aim at Lourdes Boyd, using a series of arson calls to threaten everyone involved.

Meanwhile, the police and fire respond to several calls resulting in the discovery of a number of abused and terrified children, Needing help and assistance, the local first responders call in the crew of Appalachian Star and the Devil’s Handmaidens MC who have experience in the rescue and recovery of sexual abuse and trafficking victims.

The world building follows several paths with the potential for new story lines in the author’s interconnected series.

The relationship between Lourdes and Jeremiah is a rekindling romance but Lourdes believes she is damaged beyond repair, and Jeremiah is hoping for a second chance. Lourdes fellow firefighters are over protective and guard our heroine in the wake of several attacks, but in this, Jeremiah finds himself with a new family and friendships for now and in the future. The $ex scenes are implied.

There is a large ensemble cast of colorful, familiar and energetic secondary and supporting characters many of whom cross over from the author’s numerous interconnected series. We are introduced to several abuse survivors, some of whom will struggle with their lives going forward.

LOURDES’S SENTINEL is a story of betrayal and vengeance, power and control, abuse and assault, recovery and rescue, acceptance and love. The premise is dark, dramatic and gritty; the romance is subtle; the characters are desperate and determined.

ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date October 25,2024

Letting him in means telling the truth…

KITTY

Crazy. Chaotic. and Carefree.
That’s how I presented and seemed at the signing.
No wonder he fell for me,
Wanted me;
I was the perfect package.

But now, back home, in the real world,
I can’t pretend to be that girl.
My life isn’t as it seems,
There are demons from my past,
Secrets that I hid,
Stories I never told.
Now, Malachi wants answers,
Truths that I can’t admit.

We may be heading to MMM25,
Yet he can’t come, can’t know the reality.
It’s all fun and games,
When it’s Motorcycles, Mobsters, and Mayhem.
But this is my life,
And I’m used to RUNNING ALONE.

••••••••••

REVIEW:  RUNNING ALONE by DM Earl is a contemporary,adult,romantic suspense story set in the author’s DEVIL’S HANDMAIDENS MC, a part of the multi-authored MAYHEM MAKERS-MMM series originally focusing 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 twenty-three year old Devil’s Handmaidens MC prospect Ruby aka Kitty, and tech giant/ software designer Malachi’s story line. Kitty and Malachi first met in DM Earl’s RUNNING WILD.

Approximately eighteen months earlier, several members of the Devil’s Handmaidens MC spent a weekend at the Motorcycles, Mobsters and Mayhem author’s books signing convention in Texas,where each would meet their potential futures including our story line couple but months would pass, and Ruby and Malachi’s relationship takes a back seat to distance and time. Fast forward to present day Malachi, and his associates Freddie, Nova and Jude are heading to Timber-Ghost, Montana,and Malachi is hoping to take time for their struggling relationship but the Thunder Cloud Knuckle Brotherhood has reappeared, taking aim at our story line couple.

The world building focuses on the building but struggling relationship between our story line couple, as well as perceived betrayal: extortion; and dysfunctional family dynamics.

The relationship between Malachi and Ruby started approximately eighteen months earlier but time, responsibilities and distance threatened any permanence. Hoping to reconnect with our story line heroine, Malachi takes his time to seduce the woman with whom he has fallen in love but Malachi has secrets, secrets that may threatening any future with Ruby. There are no $ex scenes, Malachi refuses to pressure Ruby into something more.

There is a large ensemble cast of familiar and colorful secondary and supporting characters including most of the previous story line couples in the Devil’s Handmaidens MC and Grimm Wolves MC.

RUNNING ALONE is a story of secrets and lies, betrayal and vengeance, family and friendships, relationships and love. The premise is dramatic yet entertaining ; the romance is sweet; the characters are dynamic and charismatic.

ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date June 27, 2024

Former Navy SEAL Ollie O’Brien can’t deal with being sidelined and discharged. His military career was his greatest accomplishment. And now, he’s flailing and fumbling as he searches for purpose in a world that doesn’t seem to value him at all. And when his sister lands him a job in North Carolina, Ollie is reluctant to accept.

Veterinarian Paisley Smythe is in over her head. She needs help with her choices in life, and she’s striking out left and right. But when a friend reaches out with an idea, she meets the one man that could be the saving grace that she’s needed all along. However, the rugged, handsome, and broken man may need her more than she needs him.

As Paisley and Ollie work together caring for the animals and saving the clinic, something sparks between them. Ollie’s injuries force him to believe he’s not enough for Paisley. And Paisley’s past demons destroy her confidence in relationships. Can they both find a way to heal in one another’s arms?

** This book was previously published in 2022 as A Salvation Society Novel. Content has been modified. **

••••••••

REVIEW: OLLIE’S RECOVERY is the prequel instalment in DM Earl’s contemporary, adult BLUE SKY SANCTUARY erotic, romance series. This is former US Navy SEAL Oliver ‘Ollie’ O’Brien, and veterinarian Paisley Smythe’s story line. OLLIE’S RECOVERY can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty. Any important information from the previous story line is revealed where necessary. There is a slight cross over with mention of Brenna ‘Raven’ O’Brien from the author’s DEVIL’S HANDMAIDENS MC: TIMBER-GHOST MONTANA series.

NOTE: OLLIE’S RECOVERY was originally released as part of the multi-authored SALVATION SOCIETY series. The current story line has been modified for re-release.

Told from three first person perspectives (Ollie, Paisley, Onyx) OLLIE’S RECOVERY follows the building relationship between Oliver O’Brien and Paisley Smythe. After a mission to Bahrain that went all to h*!! Ollie returned home struggling with injuries and the possibility of never walking again. Oliver O’Brien battled with a myriad of issues including survivor’s guilt, PTSD, and no direction in life. Struggling with her brother’s heart breaking battle, Ollie’s sister Onyx sets up a meeting with the group of former military members at FQS-Finnegan’s Quest Sentries-who will determine the best course of action for our story line hero. Now in North Carolina, Ollie will find himself working with, and falling for veterinarian Paisley Smythe, a woman with both emotional and physical scars of her own. As Ollie continues with his recovery, Paisley sees something more in the man with whom she will fall in love.

The world building follows the building romance, revealing some of the background of our story line couple. Paisley is a woman whose own scars tell a story of abuse, and Ollie is determined to claim Paisley as his own but he needs to break down the barrier around Paisley’s heart. Ollie is determined to start life anew, and with Paisley’s love and acceptance, they will set out on a new adventure in Timber-Wolf Montana at the Blue Sky Sanctuary.

The relationship between Paisley and Ollie begins when Ollie discovers an injured cat, and her litter of kittens. Working alongside Paisley at the animal clinic and rescue sanctuary, Ollie will discover there is more to life than pain and suffering. The $ex scenes are intimate and passionate without the use of over the top, sexually graphic language and text.

There is a large ensemble cast of secondary and supporting characters many of whom served in the US military, as well as their extended families.

OLLIE’S RECOVERY is a story of family and friendships, recovery and love. The premise is endearing and captivating; the slow building romance is impassioned; the characters broken but recovering. Ollie and Paisley’s story continues in the Blue Sky Sanctuary series.

Grey’s Rescue
Blue Sky Sanctuary 1
by DM Earl
Release Date: June 27, 2024
Genre: adult, contemporary, romance

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

One former military hero. One wildlife lover. And the animals who saved them both.

Relatively new to the Blue Sky Sanctuary, Grey Nottingham is desperately trying to find his bearings in a world he knows nothing about. Still reeling from a mission that crashed and burned out of his control, Grey searches for solace in a safe haven that specializes in the struggles that former military heroes face. But when he encounters a beautiful, determined, and compassionate woman who will do anything to protect the Montana wildlife, Grey suddenly knows his purpose.

Abigale Styeeks loves nature–and after finishing college she’s dedicated her life to defend innocent and protected wildlife–even if it means bringing danger to herself. When the gorgeous and tortured Grey Nottingham brings her some tortured wolves, Abigale launches an all-out mission to save them. Despite her efforts, the ranchers will stop at nothing to destroy the wolves that threatens their livelihoods. Now, battling the ranchers and saving the animals being hunted becomes Grey and Abigale’s new mission. Teaming up, the two find more than the answers to protect the endangered animals. Grey makes it his mission to protect Abigale and the wildlife from the vicious ranchers. But will they end up rescuing Grey from his own personal demons?

••••••

REVIEW: GREY’S RESCUE is the first instalment in DM Earl’s contemporary, adult BLUE SKY SANCTUARY romantic suspense series focusing on the men and women who operate Blue Sky Sanctuary. This is former Marine Grey Nottingham, and wildlife rehabber Abigale Styeeks’ story line . GREY’S RESCUE can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty. Any important information from the previous story line is revealed where necessary. Several characters cross over from the author’s DEVIL’S HANDMAIDENS MC: TIMBER-GHOST MONTANA series.

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

Told from four first person perspectives including Grey and Abigale GREY’S RESCUE focuses on Grey Nottingham’s recovery in the wake of serious injuries suffered in Bahrain.Grey is no longer the man he once was; his physical and emotional injuries are grievous, and the ongoing pain debilitating on a daily basis but when the people at Blue Sky Sanctuary discover several severly injured and abused wolves, Grey will come face to face with his future in the guise of animal rehabber Abigale Styeeks. Abigale and her mother Trudy are wary of men but with the help of the people at Blue Sky Sanctuary, as well as several members from the Devil’s Handmaidens MC, Abigale is learning to trust but trust will be hard fought in the face of the continuous attacks against the local wolf population, and our heroine, herself.

The world building follows numerous paths as several potential story lines are introduced through various characters, as well as the return of the Devil’s Handmaidens MC. The ranchers are battling the influx of wolves, as Abigale and her team try to educate the people about the population.

The relationship between Abigale and Grey is somewhat antagonistic as Grey continues to struggle with the fallout of his injuries, the PTSD, and the debilitating migraines that are threatening his life. Abigale is battling between head and heart with her attraction to a man who is often allusive and shuttered but an attack against the ranch finds Grey,once again, struggling to survive. The $ex scenes are limited but passionate and intense.

There is another large ensemble cast of colorful, dynamic and familiar secondary and supporting characters including the introduction of several ranchers, their extended families, and the return of the Devil’s Handmaidens MC.

GREY’S RESCUE is a story of vengeance and injustice, misunderstanding and forgiveness, acceptance and, family and support. The premise is compelling and riveting; the romance is impassioned but struggles in the face of confusion and misjudgement; the characters are determined and charismatic.

Andrea Description:
Andrea knows her past life is over. Now, laying in a hospital bed with her mother’s last words resonating in her mind, she waits in silence for her aunt. Only to her will she tell her secret before taking her place amongst those her parents trusted to protect and guide her.

•••••••••••••

Review:

Andrea by M.A. Abraham is a novella that is part of the Ignite Your Soul Anthology. Above is the list of authors participating in this Anthology. Since I read all of M.A. Abraham’s work, this review is only on her novella Andrea.

Andrea’s family were all killed in a car crash accident, with only Andrea surviving.  She remembered her mother’s final words before her death… “Remember what I am about to tell you; Andrea, your Zia Donna will be coming for you, or perhaps just her husband. When they arrive, they will address you as Dree, not Andrea. By doing this, you will know they are who they say they are, and are family. Trust no one who tries to take you out of the hospital but them”

Andrea is only 16, and until she sees her aunt or uncle, she pretends to still be in a semi-coma. She has been told to tell them this was no accident, that this was deliberate. Her uncle will know who order the hit, and he will keep her safe.  Her aunt and uncle, Donna and Benito, arrive from Italy, with the sons of Don Tammaso. Zia Donna whispers into her niece’s ear. “Mia Bella Dree. I have come for you. Andrea awakes, as she heard her aunt call her Mia Bella Dree. 

Andrea has a lot of pain, as well as suffering from the loss of her family; it will take time for the wounds to heal. All Andrea wants is to leave the hospital, and after disagreements with the doctor and family, she finally is released.  Andrea arrived in Italy, still very much in pain; they arrived at Don Tommaso’s home, who she meets, but she will be in the care of Zia Donna and Benito.  Luca, who is Don Tommaso’s son, is assigned to go to America, run the estate and investigate who was behind the attack.  As he leaves, he knows that one day in the far future, Andrea will be his.  The novella leaves things open, as Andrea will take a long time to recover, and until she reaches 18, she then could return to America.  I look forward to see when M.A. Abraham will complete this book, as it looks like a very good story.

MAGNETIC ALLURE
Ignite Your Soul Anthology
by DM Earl
Release Date: June 19, 2024
Genre: adult, contemporary,

As a traveling nurse, Luna Zawacki, loves the freedom her job provides Seeing new places and meeting new people always makes the work more interesting and exciting. However, a transient lifestyle makes little time for personal or even romantic connections. But when two young girls are rushed into her emergency room after a tragic car accident leaves the daughters without parents, Luna can’t resist the pull the girls’ loss has on her heartstrings. Ensuring their safety and well-being while they recover become her top priority.

Being on the hospital board poses some challenges for Eli Stanford. He likes to keep his work at work, and his home life separate from his business. But everything changes when his two nieces are fighting for their lives after a fatal crush kills his sister (brother?). Now, more than ever, Eli must trust the hospital to care for the girls. Luckily, the determined and compassionate nurse assigned to his nieces shares his vision.

As Luna and Eli drop everything to focus on the care of the innocent girls, the two grow closer. But is the magnetic allure that pulls them together a reaction to trauma or will Eli and Luna find a real connection after the devastation subsides?

••••••••

REVIEW:MAGNETIC ALLURE by DM Earl is a contemporary, adult short story, part of the IGNITE YOUR SOUL charity anthology. This is travelling nurse Luna Zawacki, and businessman Eli Stanford’s introductory story line.

Told from dual first person perspectives (Luna and Eli) MAGNETIC ALLURE follows in the wake of a deadly accident that took the lives of Eli’s brother and his wife but left their two children struggling to survive. Luna Zawacki is a travelling nurse, working the ICU when the children are brought in but Luna never expected to come face to face with her future in the guise of Eli Stanford, the children’s uncle. A quick introduction, and a mutual need for space, finds our couple spending the night together as they make plans for potentially something more.

MAGNETIC ALLURE is a fast paced, quick read, approximately five chapters in length that reveals the introduction to our story line couple. The premise is engaging and captivating; the romance is fast and passionate but mostly implied; the characters are single minded and strong-willed. MAGNETIC ALLURE ends on a bit of a cliff hanger-there is more to come.

ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date April 18, 2024

A second chance may hurt worse the next time around…

Funny and vibrant Brenna “Raven” O’Brien has experienced her fair share of pain and loneliness. She’s always used humor to hide her true feelings of rejection and loss. Always the jokester, Brenna brings joy to those around her. Being needed in IT for the Devil’s Handmaidens gives her purpose and a sense of belonging. After being betrayed by the only man she’s ever loved, Raven guards her heart from pain at all cost.

But when she comes face to face with the man who destroyed her, everything changes…

Ash Sterling has loved Raven his entire life. He’d do anything to repair the broken shards of her heart. But Raven’s pain runs deep, and her pride won’t be crushed again. However, when her sister comes back into her life, and the Handmaiden’s realize more danger and darkness loom, Raven knows that Ash is the one man who can help her seek the justice her family needs. When boundaries blur and passion ignites, will the pain of the past subside for both of them to find a future together?

•••••

REVIEW:RAVEN is the sixth instalment in DM Earl’s contemporary adult DEVIL’S HANDMAIDENS MC: TIMBER-WOLF MONTANA dark, erotic, MC romantic suspense series-a spin off from the author’s GRIMM WOLVES series/ and interconnected with the multi-authored SALVATION SOCIETY series. . This is rancher Ash Sterling, and Brenna ‘Raven’ O’Brien’s story line. RAVEN can be read as a stand alone but I recommend reading the series in order for back story and cohesion as there is an ongoing premise throughout.

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

Told from several first person perspectives including Raven and Ash, RAVEN follows the second chance relationship between our story line couple. Years earlier, Ash destroyed Raven, leaving a heart broken woman in the process. Fast forward to present day, wherein, Ash is hoping for a second chance but all is not well in Timber-Wolf Montana, and the Sterling family will be caught in the middle of a war not of their making. The Thunder Cloud Knuckle Brotherhood is determined to take control of Timber-Wolf Montana, and taking aim at everyone involved with the Devil’s Handmaidens MC and the family owned Sterling ranch.

The world building continues to focus on the take down of the Thunder Cloud Knuckle Brotherhood, a group of sexist, racist and abusive men who are determined to take control. As Ash struggles to prove he is the man deserving of Raven O’Brien, someone else is targeting our story line heroine, as well as several members of the Devil’s Handmaidens MC.

Once again, there is a large ensemble cast of colorful and determined secondary and supporting characters including most of the previous story line couples, as well as both Raven and Ash’s parents and siblings.

RAVEN is a story of power and control, betrayal and vengeance, secrets and lies, family and friendships, forgiveness and love. The premise is dark, complex, gritty and dramatic; the romance is fated; the characters are broken but struggling to heal.

Heed the TWs-there are many and pervasive.

Besides that, I live, breathe, and almost die for that ranch. I’ve not been a saint since we broke up, I’ll be honest, but I’ve never had another girlfriend or fiancée. Best I could call it was hookups when I needed, you know, some relief.”

I can feel my face getting hot and she’s looking at me, trying not to laugh at my discomfort.

“Go ahead and laugh. Not only was it far and few between, I’d drive into the city so it wasn’t someone from around here. Mom has been on me to try and find a bride to help me, but there’s only one woman I want as my bride. No, I won’t put any pressure on you, Brenna. I’m just trying to be honest and upfront. Now, I know you’ve had a really long day, I’ll get outta your hair. Maybe we can grab a bite to eat sometime. Your call. I’ll leave the ball in your court.”

LAST CHANCE AT LOVE by DM Earl

Not believing in such a thing as good luck since his life has always sucked, Slick takes one more chance at love. The one thing that’s holding him back from being one hundred percent in, is his past, especially his dark part in it. To clear the road to redemption you have to want to face your demons. And Slick has plenty he doesn’t want to introduce Lucy or Atlas in regard to his past life though if he wants a future with them both it’s definitely time to suck it up and make amends

••••••

REVIEW: LAST CHANCE AT LOVE by DM Earl is a novella set in the author’s GRIMM WOLVES MC series, and a part of the multi-authored anthology BIKER IN MY BED. This is Slick aka Cletus Jennings, and stripper/housecleaner / single mother Lucy’s aka Cashmere story line. Cletus Jennings first appeared in TAZ, book three of the DEVIL’S HANDMAIDENS MC series.

NOTE: If you have not read TAZ, there may be spoilers in my review.

Told from dual first person perspectives (Cletus and Lucy) LAST CHANCE AT LOVE focuses on Cletus aka Slick’s need to apologize for sins of the past involving his ex Raquel ‘Taz’ Smith and the Devil’s Handmaidens MC. As a former member of a white-supremacist group Cletus Jennings destroyed many lives including the life of the woman he once loved but in an effort to prove he is a changed man, and worthy of Lucy’s love, Cletus offers up some information, that will likely put a target on his back. Apologies for the damaged he caused threatens to break his tenuous hold on the who holds his heart.

The world building reveals a little bit about the past including some of the events that would set Cletus towards a different path. For a better understanding, I recommend reading TAZ (Devil’s Handmaidens MC) as the premise of LAST CHANCE AT LOVE are predicated upon the events of TAZ.

There is a large ensemble cast of secondary and supporting characters including several members of the Grimm Wolves MC, and cameos from Enforcer and Taz.

LAST CHANCE AT LOVE is a story of betrayal and vengeance, acceptance and forgiveness, understanding and love. The fast paced premise is heart breaking and emotional; the romance struggles in the face of reality and the truth; the characters are broken but struggling to heal.

•••••••

REVIEW: FOREVER KIND OF LOVE by KE Osborn is a novella set in the author’s NOLA DEFIANCE MC series, and a part of the multi-authored BIKER IN MY BED anthology. This is Hurricane and Kaia’s continuing story. Hurricane and Kaia’s introduction can be found in GRAVITATE book one of the NOLA Defiance MC.

Told from dual first person perspectives (Hurricane & Kaia) FOREVER KIND OF LOVE follows NOLA Defiance MC president Hurricane and his wife /old lady Kaia on their long-awaited honeymoon in Hawaii. A visit to the local chapter of Defiance MC on the island finds Hurricane on assignment to rescue the daughter of the Oahu MC but when he fails, Kaia takes it upon herself to save a woman who doesn’t want to be saved.

We are introduced to several members of the Oahu Defiance MC, as well as their president’s daughter Nalani who found herself involved with a Chinese gang known as The Ministry.

FOREVER KIND OF LOVE is a story of family and friendships, betrayal and power, forgiveness and love. The fast paced premise is intriguing and entertaining; the ongoing romance is seductive and provocative; the characters are familiar and determined.

LOVE BITES by Kristine Allen

ROYAL: I’m a loyal member of the Demented Sons MC. Other than my little sister they’re the only family I need. After the way my ex cheated,I’d rather chew off my own arm than get in another relationship. He//, I moved back to Texas to get away from that disaster. Hookups were my new game plan. Except I wasn’t expecting to meet her-especially in the middle of a deadly threat to my brothers. Someone was making sport of my club members and I became their next target. I needed to cut her loose for her own good, but I was pretty sure it would kill me.
LUNA: What we both agreed would remain casual, suddenly became something more. It didn’t matter that I knew I couldn’t give him what he deserved. I’d been burned and my heart was too damaged. Love bites. Then I messed up, like I knew I would. And it cost me the man I loved and my best friend. Now I have to find a way to get the both back-or die trying.

•••••••

REVIEW: LOVE BITES by Kristine Allen is a novella found in the author’s DEMENTED SONS MC: TEXAS, and a part of the multi-authored BIKER IN MY BED anthology. This is twenty-nine year old former US solider/ mechanic Max ‘Royal ‘ Windsor, and Luna Levine’s story line.

Told from dual first person perspectives (Royal and Luna) LOVE BITES follows in the wake of Royal moving back home to Texas in the wake of catching his ex-girlfriend cheating with the neighbor. As the newest member of the Demented Sons MC Texas, Royal needed a place to live, and staying with his sister was about to get a whole lot of interesting when she signed him up on a dating app, and the messages started to come through. One night with Luna was all it took but a Thanksgiving dinner with the club would reveal a few secrets that were never supposed to be exposed.

The relationship between Luna and Royal begins as a matchup that will quickly turn into something more but Luna is good at keeping secrets, and her biggest secret may threaten the people she loves. The $ex scenes are intimate and passionate.

We are reintroduced to several member of the DEMENTED SONS MC: TEXAS as well as Royal’s sister Lacie, and Luna’s father.

LOVE BITES is a story of secrets and lies, obsession and want, family and friendships. The fast paced premise is captivating and engaging reading like the prequel to Luna and Royal’s story; the romance is limited; the characters are desperate and determined. LOVE BITES ends on a cliff hanger-you have been warned.

ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date December 7, 2023

All it takes is a little guts and Glory….

As the VP of the DHMC Timber Ghost Montana Chapter and Tink’s right hand woman, Nora ‘Glory’ Winfield is struggling to keep everything balanced. But a past that keeps her guilt-ridden and on edge, she’ll do anything to protect those she loves–and she loves the sisters in her club. Watching them fall in love and start lives of their own gives her a sense of family and belonging–feelings Glory lost long ago. But she can’t help wondering when it’s her turn for something more than just toe-curling flings and fun.

Meeting her Boo changes everything. Suddenly, she wants more, but Glory fears getting too close and letting down her guard will only bring her more heartache. However, the desire between Boo and Glory can’t be ignored. But when Glory’s past comes back with a vengeance, it’s up to her sisters and her Boo to save the woman who’s everyone else’s savior. Will they protect her or go down in a blaze of Glory?

••••••

REVIEW: GLORY is the fifth instalment in DM Earl’s contemporary, adult DEVIL’S HANDMAIDENS MC: TIMBER-GHOST MONTANA dark, erotic, MC romance series. This is Devil’s Handmaiden’s VP thirty-seven year old,, Nora ‘Glory’ Winfield’s story line. GLORY 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 as there is an ongoing premise throughout.

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

The Devil’s Handmaiden’s MC: Timber-Ghost Montana is an all female MC with deep ties to the Grimm Wolves and Intruders MC.

Told from several first person perspectives including Glory GLORY follows the building but secret relationship between Glory and her ‘Boo’. Nora ‘Glory’ Winfield’s past is dark and heartbreaking. Rescued from a human trafficking ring, Glory has made a name for herself in the Devil’s Handmaiden’s MC but Glory’s past refuses to let go, taking aim at our heroine, and the people she loves. What ensues is the building relationship between Glory and ‘Boo’, and the potential fall-out as the Thunder Club Knuckle Brotherhood sets its’ sight on Glory, and the youngest members of the DHMC.

The world building focuses on Glory, her past, her present, and the future she struggles to believe. Having fallen in love with a younger man, Glory fears her past will take hold, destroying everything and everyone she loves. As the DHMC and their brother counterparts Grimm Wolves MC and Intruders MC, search for the people who have destroyed Glory’s life, a ghost from the past is about to haunt our story line heroine.

The relationship between Glory and her ‘Boo’ is one of immediate attraction but Glory wants to keep their affair a secret, a secret that doesn’t go well for the man that she loves. ‘Boo’ wants nothing more than to claim Nora ‘Glory’ Winfield, but Glory takes the first step towards their own happily ever after.The $ex scenes ere intimate and passionate without the use of over the top, sexually graphic language and text.

There is a large ensemble cast of colorful, familiar and determined secondary and supporting characters from all three aforementioned MCs, as well as the youngest members, survivors of a human trafficking ring using men, women and children.

GLORY is a dark, complex and gritty story of power and control, betrayal and vengeance, abuse and murder, acceptance and love. The premise is dramatic, raw, haunting and tragic; the romance is provocative and seductive; the characters are desperate, edgy and determined.

Heed my trigger warning-they are graphic and dark.
