ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date May 18, 2021
Leo Winter loves his life. He works when he needs money. He rides when he craves freedom. He frequents the local bar when he wants a good time. The Tin Gypsies might be a memory, but the bachelor life he lived with his motorcycle club still suits him fine. So when a one-night stand surprises him at a family barbecue and claims she’s pregnant with his child, he’s certain he’s died and gone to hell.
Cassandra Cline took one night off from her structured life. One. And now her wild fling with the local bad boy has turned her life sideways. Her dreams and academic career are circling the drain, and none of it would have happened if she’d stayed far, far away from Leo.
Except avoiding him is impossible, especially when she’s forced to move home to Clifton Forge, Montana. And he refuses to leave her side when a series of strange accidents put her and their baby at risk. But are they accidents? Or is she standing in the middle of a battlefield she doesn’t understand?
Her only allies are people she barely knows. And a man who has the potential to steal her heart.
If only he’d stop playing the fool.
•••••••••
REVIEW:FALLEN JESTER is the fifth instalment in Devney Perry’s contemporary, adult TIN GYPSY erotic, MC romance series focusing on the former members of the Tin Gypsy MC. This is thirty-two year old, automotive restorer Leo Winter, and twenty-four year old, graduate student Cassandra Cline’s story line. FALLEN JESTER can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty. Any important information from the previous story lines is revealed where necessary but for back story and cohesion, I recommend reading the series in order.
NOTE: Due to the nature of the story line premise, there may be triggers for more sensitive readers.
Told from dual first person perspectives (Cass and Leo) FALLEN JESTER follows in the wake of a one night stand between twenty-four year old Cassandra Cline and Leo Winter. Six weeks would pass wherein our heroine, along with Scarlett Marks (Noble Prince #4), had been abducted and held prisoner by Tucker Talbot and the Arrowhead Warriors MC, and in the ensuing time would discover she was pregnant with Leo’s child. Unable to accept the responsibilities of fatherhood, Leo pushes our heroine out of his life, due in part to immaturity and fear, a fear of failure and losing his freedom for a one-night stand. What ensues is the acrimonious but building relationship between Cass and Leo, and the potential fall-out as the enemy continues to focus on vengeance targeting our couple in their deadly games.
Thirty-two year old Leo Winter has yet to grow up; a party boy who is always looking for a good time, Leo barely remembers the woman that would call to his heart but it is Cass’s heart that will sustain the most damage as Leo continues to push her out of his life. Cassandra Cline is a strong-willed, determined young woman, and is willing to go it alone, and raise her child with or without Leo’s help. Leo struggles in the weeks and months as the birth date approaches but the reality of the situation will hit too close to home as Leo finds himself falling in love with the mother of his child.
The relationship between Leo and Cass begins as a one-night stand that quickly spirals out of control. Leo struggles to remember our story line heroine, and yet, he refuses to accept the possibility that he is the father of Cass’s child. Barely able to look after himself, Leo is the epitome of bad boy; a child-like attitude where fun and parties are more important than personal responsibilities including the biggest responsibility of them all. Believing he is unworthy of love, Leo reinforces the belief by continuously breaking the heart of the woman he loves. As Cass slowly begins to accept Leo into her life, Leo will find himself facing his demons, a demon that is about to destroy all progress he has made so far. The $ex scenes are intimate and passionate.
There is a large ensemble cast of colorful, energetic and dynamic secondary and supporting characters including all of the previous story line couples. We are introduced to Cass’s parents Dale and Claudia Cline, as well as Cass’s friend and former roommate Olive. Emmett Stone’s story line is next in Tin Queen.
FALLEN JESTER is a story of vengeance and betrayal; heart break and struggle; family, relationships, friendships and love. The premise is emotional and engaging; the romance is seductive and hot; the characters are temperamental, intense, broken yet healing. FALLEN JESTER sees another Tin Gypsy find love and a happily ever after.
