ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date November 22, 2024

Wesley Blake is my brother’s best friend.
He has been a part of my life longer than I can remember.
He’s seen it scrapped knees, birthday parties, and the worst moment in my life.
But I’m just a little sister to him.

To me, he is so much more.
He is all I have ever wanted.
I have never even considered anyone else.
But now that I am older, it’s time for me to make a decision.

Do I continue to wait for a man that doesn’t want me?
Or is it time for me to grow up?

Maybe it’s time for me to leave Severn and everyone I know in the rearview mirror.

REVIEW: BROKEN PROMISE is the first instalment in Jade Marshall’s contemporary, adult MEN OF SEVERN erotic romance series. This is bar owner Wesley Blake, and Karmen Jones’ story line.

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

Told from dual first person perspectives (Wesley and Karmen) BROKEN PROMISES follows the tempestuous relationship between our story line couple. Approximately six years earlier Karmen’s brother, and Wesley’s best friend Tommy died, and Wesley made a promise to protect our story line heroine. Fast forward to present day, the relationship between Wesley and Karmen is at a stand still, and after Karmen professes her love for our story line hero, Wesley continues to push Karmen out of his life but another tragedy brings Karmen back home, soon to be followed by threats against the people she loves.

The world building is fast and furious as we are up closed and personal with grief and death, madness and mayhem, and the difficulty of letting go.

The relationship between Wesley and Karmen is a best friend’s sister; a story of rejection and pain in the face of a promise meant to keep everyone safe but a promise that will be broken when the heart finally awakes. The $ex scenes are intimate and provocative.
We are introduced to the dynamic Blake brothers: Shane and Adam; Karmen’s best friend Lenor, and brother and sister duo Jacob and Charlotte Wilson .

BROKEN PROMISE is a story of love and loss, family and friendships, acceptance and love. The character driven premise is fast paced, entertaining and captivating-the novella packs a ‘lotta punch’. The characters are desperate and charismatic; the romance is fated and provocative.

ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date December 4, 2024

I’m not too fond of Christmas.
Even as a kid, my family never celebrated. What makes it worse now, is my friends, my club, trying to make me fit into a lifestyle that doesn’t suit me.
I’m not a nice guy.
I don’t like people.
Instead of feeling welcomed, their affection makes my skin crawl and sends me running on Christmas Eve. I find myself in the only place where people like me are the norm—From Dusk Til Dawn, the strip club owned by the Gypsy Bastards MC.
I’m here to drink, watch a few girls dance, and escape from everything my life has become.
That is until I lay eyes on Allegra.
All my plans are shattered as the brothel manager for the Cammareri family entices me. She is the one absolutely off-limits woman. She is the one woman I can’t stop thinking about.
How much damage can one night of fun do?

•••

REVIEW:THE GIFT is the fifth instalment and novella in Jade Marshall’s contemporary, adult GYPSY BASTARDS MC erotic, MC romance series. This is twenty-two year old, brothel manager Allegra, and thirty-five year old, MC member Bishop’s story line. THE GIFT crosses over with the author’s Cammareri Family series.

Told from dual first person perspectives (Allegra and Bishop) THE GIFT focuses on the one-night stand between twenty-two year old, brothel manager Allegra, and thirty-five year old, MC member Bishop. Both Allegra and Bishop despise the Christmas holidays, and find one another at the Gypsy Bastards MC owned strip club on Christmas Eve. One night together ends with Bishop disappearing from Allegra’s life, and in the ensuing time, our heroine will discover her life is about to change in many ways.

The world building reveals some of the background of our story line couple How Allegra met the Cammareri Family; and Bishop’s introduction to his life with the Gypsy Bastards MC.

The relationship between Allegra and Bishop is a friends to lovers in which a mutual disdains, and loneliness on Christmas Eve ends with only a good bye. The $ex scenes are erotic and provocative.

The secondary and supporting characters are limited except for hotel and bar employees.

THE GIFT is the introduction to our story line couple. Some of the background of who and what they are but an introduction that ends with Bishop walking away, wanting no more than one-night together. The premise is entertaining and intriguing; the characters are sassy and sexual. THE GIFT ends on a cliff hanger-you have been warned.

THE BEAST (Gypsy Bastards MC 4) by Jade Marshall-a review

Amazon.com / Amazon.ca / B&N / KOBO /

ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date February 16, 2024

When life gives you lemons, grab some tequila.

I won’t let a man hold me back or rule my life. I am an independent woman and when things spiral out of control I don’t have to sit here crying. Instead, I take a trip to visit my friends Kaiya and Storm in Gypsy Falls.

What I never expected is to find what I have been missing my entire life.

The men of the Gypsy Bastards MC are not what I was expecting, and I quickly find myself falling into their rag-tag family.

Now, I only hope I can keep them.

••••••

REVIEW: THE BEAST is the fourth instalment in Jade Marshall’s contemporary, adult, GYPSY B*STARDS dark, erotic, MC romance series. This is Kelly aka Beast, and Irene’s story line. THE BEAST can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty. Any important information from the previous story lines is revealed where necessary

NOTE: Due to the nature of the story line premise,there may be triggers for more sensitive readers. There is a slight cross over with the characters from the author’s Cammareri series.

Told from dual first person perspectives ( Irene and Beast) THE BEAST follows in the wake of the assault against our story line heroine. Packing up, moving out, Irene heads to her friend in Gypsy Falls, where she will meet her future in the guise of MC member Beast. From the outset, Irene is an independent woman who is struggling to ask or accept any help including from the man with whom Irene will fall in love. Beast’s attraction to Irene is immediate and intense but Irene’s issues of trust have built an impenetrable wall that even Beast struggles to climb or overcome. When Irene’s past returns, the Gypsy B*stards claim Irene as their own, and our heroine will find her happily ever after with our story line hero. What ensues is the building relationship between our story line couple, and the potential fall out as Irene’s need for independence threatens her own safety and the safety of everyone involved.

The world building focuses on Beast’s need to claim the woman with whom he is falling in love, and Irene’s determination to remain independent and strong but all does not go according to plan when the past refuses to let go, targeting our story line heroine.

The relationship between Beast and Irene begins as acquaintance and friends when Irene seeks shelter with the Gypsy B*stards MC. Beast sees something, suspects all is not well in Irene’s life, and our hero is determined to prove he is worthy of her love. The $ex scenes are intimate and passionate .

There is a large ensemble cast of colorful and energetic secondary and supporting characters, most of whom we met in previous instalments: Club president Pope and Storm; Wolf and Hadley, the return of Sparrow; Viking, Doc, Mad Dog and Kaiya, Justice, Trinity, as well as Severu, Alceu and Preacher (Cammareri series).

THE BEAST is a story of power and control, betrayal and vengeance, madness and obsession, family and friendships, relationships and love. The fast paced premise is dramatic and intense; the romance guarded yet building; the characters are desperate and animated. THE BEAST ends on a cliff hanger-you have been warned.

ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date December 1, 2021.

The Gypsy Bastards MC is a family, and they continue to expand.

Bodhi “Mad Dog” Black fell for Kaiya Walsh the moment he saw her. Bruised, beaten, and broken, she was still the most beautiful woman he had ever seen.

Kaiya Walsh comes from a violent past and getting past it may not be possible. Moving forward is hard and no matter how much her mind, body, and soul has healed she simply doesn’t feel worthy.

When Kaiya starts to spread her wings, Mad Dog takes a chance and tries to get close to her, but he doesn’t think she is ready for everything he wants. And he wants it all.

There are more obstacles to overcome than just navigating Kaiya’s’ harrowing past. Will they survive? Will there be a happily ever after when the dust settles?

••••••

REVIEW:THE DOG is the third instalment in Jade Marshall’s contemporary, adult GYPSY B*STARDS MC erotic, MC, romance series focusing on the members of the Gypsy B*stards MC. This is forty year old, single father Bodhi ‘Mad Dog’ Black, and twenty year old, Kaiya Walsh’s story line. THE DOG 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. Some of the events of THE DOG cross over with and run parallel to some of the events in book two THE WOLF.

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

Told from dual first person perspectives (Bohdi and Kaiya) THE DOG follows the building relationship between forty year old, single father Bodhi ‘Mad Dog’ Black, and twenty year old, Kaiya Walsh. One year earlier Bodhi and the Gypsy B*stards rescued Storm (The Pope) and Kaiya Walsh from the Mongrels MC but in the ensuing months Bodhi kept his distance from the woman that called to his heart. Fast forward one year, Kaiya struggles with Mad Dog’s ongoing rejection, and in this, takes some time for herself, returning to the Gypsy B*stards a stronger version of the woman she left behind, a woman who knows what she wants. Bodhi ‘Mad Dog’ Black has bided his time with Kaiya Walsh, having witnessed the abuse, first hand, of our story line heroine. Believing Kaiya isn’t ready for a permanent relationship, Mad Dog continues to push Kaiya away but our heroine finds herself looking after Bodhi’s children, children she will one day come to call her own. When another woman is attacked, the MC goes on the hunt for the people responsible but Mad Dog never expected that Kaiya would become fodder in a game of revenge. What ensues is the building romance and relationship between Kaiya and Mad Dog, and the potential fall-out as the past takes aim at our story line couple.

The relationship between Mad Dog and Kaiya is one of immediate attraction but Mad Dog refuses to cross an invisible knowing Kaiya needs time to heal. Kaija has all but thrown herself at our storyline hero but believes Mad Dog’s rejections are a sign that she is broken beyond repair. The $ex scenes are intimate, passionate, and intense.

The secondary and supporting characters including elementary school vice prinicpal James Parsons; Bodhi’s ex-wife Darla; his children Tatum, Gunner and Kash; MC members MC president Pope O’Brien and his ole lady Storm Lin , club enforcer Wolf and his old lady Hadley; Sparrow, Luna and their son Gage, Beast, Justice,Viking; tattoo artist Laine, and his sister, woman’s counselor Irene.

THE DOG is a story of betrayal and revenge, family and relationships, acceptance and love. The premise is edgy; the romance is provocative; the characters are dynamic and inspiring.

•••••

REVIEW:THE WOLF is the first instalment in Jade Marshall’s contemporary, adult GYPSY BASTARDS MC erotic, MC, romance series focusing on the members of the Gypsy Bastards MC. This is club enforcer Brandon ‘Wolf’, and waitress/tattoo artist Hadley Freeman’s story line.

WARNING:Due to the graphic violence and assaults, and strong language, there may be triggers for more sensitive readers.

Told from dual first person perspectives (Hadley and Wolf) THE WOLF follows the building relationship between Gypsy Bastards club enforcer Brandon aka Wolf, and Hadley Freeman. Years earlier, Hadley, a product of the MC lifestyle escaped when her brother was murdered for protecting our heroine but life on the run meant Hadley was always one step ahead. Fast forward to present day wherein Hadley, rejecting the advances of a member of the Mongrel MC, finds herself under the protection of the Gypsy Bastards MC when her best friend Storm steps in and saves her life. Enter Gypsy Bastards MC enforcer Wolf. What ensues is the building relationship between Wolf and Hadley, and the potential fall-out as Hadley finds herself a prisoner of the Mongrel MC, and life as she knows it is about to change.

Brandon is a broken man, having loved and lost years before. Never expecting to fall in love again, Brandon is blindsided by his need for Hadley, a need that does not go unnoticed by the other members of the Gypsy Bastards MC. Hadley has known struggle for most of her adult life but a war is brewing between the local MCs and our heroine is caught in the middle as the prize for the taking.

The relationship between Hadley and Wolf is one of immediate attraction but Wolf doesn’t do relationships, and struggles with his feelings and emotions towards our story line heroine. Hadley is a woman who makes friends easily, and as such becomes tight with a couple of the members of the Gypsy Bastards MC but it is not until Wolf stakes a claim do the threats against Hadley become personal and deadly. The $ex scenes are erotic and intense.

We are introduced to several members of the Gypsy Bastards MC : Club president Pope; Sparrow and his old lady Luna; Viking, Doc, Mad Dog, Beast and Justice; Hadley’s best friend Storm, and newcomer Kaiya. The requisite evil has many faces.

THE WOLF is a story of hardship and betrayal; love and acceptance; power and control. The premise is gritty and raw: the characters are flirty, troubled and flawed; the romance is provocative and consuming-there is a palpable sexual chemistry between our leading couple.

•••••••

REVIEW:THE POPE is the second instalment in Jade Marshall’S contemporary, adult GYPSY BASTARDS MC erotic, MC romance series focusing on the members of the GYPSY BASTARDS MC. This is Gypsy Bastards MC president Colin ‘Pope’ O’Brien, and exotic dancer/baker Storm Lin. THE POPE can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty but I recommend reading the first instalment THE WOLF for back story as the events in The Pope are directly in relationship to the events of book one.

Told from dual first person perspectives (Pope and Storm) THE POPE follows the second chance romance between Gypsy Bastard MC president Colin ‘Pope’ O’Brien, and Storm Lin. Storm has loved Pope most of her life but Colin was once her sister Winter’s boyfriend, and rejection by Pope sent Storm spiralling out of control. Fast forward to present day wherein Storm works as a stripper at the Gypsy Bastards owned Dusk til Dawn bar and club, a position that keeps Storm front and center with our story line hero but a call from a lawyer sends their lives in another direction. What ensues is the rebuilding relationship between Storm and Pope, and the potential fall-out when the Mongrel MC comes seeking revenge for sins of the past.

Pope O’Brien had been in a relationship with Winter Lin but always felt something stronger for
Storm but pushing Storm out of his life was the biggest regret,and Pope is hoping to start anew with the woman he has always loved but their lives are about to change when secrets are revealed, and revenge takes a toll on the Gypsy Bastards MC. Storm Lin has never stopped loving Colin O’Brien but rejection years before sent Storm spiralling out of control . Four years now clean and sober, Storm will be thrust in another direction when news of a different kind pushes our heroine and Colin back together. The $ex scenes are intimate and passionate without the use of over the top, sexually graphic language and text.

We are reintroduced to club enforcer Wolf and his old lady Hadley; Justice, Sparrow, Luna and their son Gage, Mad Dog and Viking, as well as the introduction to the club’s new prospect Bishop. The requisite evil returns demanding back the woman he lost.

THE POPE is a story of family, secrets, betrayal and lies. The premise heart breaking and captivating; the romance is steamy and hot; the characters are energetic and intense.
