••••••

REVIEW:  FATEFUL HEARTS is the third instalment in KE Osborn’s contemporary, adult REVEL ROSE BILLIONAIRES erotic, romance series-a spin off from the author’s NOLA Defiance MC series. This is billionaire businessman Blake Branson, and PA /single mother Zoey Zavorelli’s story line.

Told from dual first person perspectives (Blake and Zoey) FATEFUL HEARTS follows building romance and relationship between billionaire businessman Blake Branson, and PA /single mother Zoey Zavorelli. After betraying a rival, Blake finds himself working for the man in an effort to prove he is a worthy competitor (Guarded Hearts 2). As a part owner at Ensure Asset Management, Blake is aware of the strict no dating/fraternizing policy but in an effort to protect Nash’s PA Zoey Zavarelli from her vindictive ex, Blake offers to play boyfriend and lover in the wake of the ex’s upcoming wedding. Zoey struggles with the implications and the possible repercussions not only with her job but her seven year old daughter Hailee, a child who is quickly falling for our story line hero. As the wedding date approaches, Blake finds himself getting deeper into the fake family routine, a routine he is hoping to one day make permanent but all does not go according to plan when their ruse is discovered, and one or both are about the lose their jobs. What ensues is the building romance and relationship between Blake and Zoey, and the potential fall-out as two families are pitted against one another in a game of winner takes all.

Zoey Zavorelli has struggled for years, both during and after, her disastrous relationship with her daughter’s father. A young single mother, gives up her life for her child, finally working her way to self-sufficiency in the wake of a debt that was never her own but her ex’s upcoming wedding is about to send Zoey into a spiral, a spiral in which she will have someone else taking the fall. Blake Branson knows all about betrayal and revenge but he isn’t about to let Zoey bear the brunt of her ex’s vindictiveness and anger. A pretend relationship quickly turns into something more, something that is about to be exposed for all the world to see.

The relationship between Zoey and Blake begins as a fake dating/romance relationship when Blake witnesses the emotional abuse first hand. Blake is desperate to protect our story line heroine but their actions may prove to be the detriment of them all. The $ex scenes are passionate, intense and erotic but our couple are often too caught up in themselves to be wary of everyone around.

The secondary and supporting characters include Blake’s partners: Nash and Brianna (Hostile Hearts), Lucas and Paisley (Guarded Hearts 2), as well as Tahlee, Dane, Cleo, Asher; Zoey’s ex Kyle and his fiancee Tamara, and their daughter Hailee. The hostility between Nash and Blake continues throughout the story, a hostility which began in the previous stories.

FATEFUL HEARTS is a story of betrayal and vengeance, power and control, secrets and lies, acceptance and love. The fast paced premise is intriguing and entertaining but the conflict resolution is too quick and not without some concerns as to the illegalities and abilities of the man in question; the romance is provocative and seductive; the characters are a little bit immature but colorful and dynamic.

ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date April 3, 2023

Everything changed in the blink of an eye.

I wasn’t expecting it. The way my life would be irrevocably altered in seconds.

Sophie was a painful part of my past I’d rather forget. Fifteen years ago, she packed her things and hightailed it without a word. Now she’s back—but she brought with her my teenage daughter, whom I didn’t know existed.

At first, I felt betrayed.

I don’t know how to be a father.

The problem is—I don’t have a choice.

Sophie is sick and running out of time.

But even with the dark clouds swirling with fear and uncertainty, I have one guiding light—Frankie. We’ve been darting around our feelings for a while.But maybe we’ve left it too long because I have responsibilities now.People who need me to take care of them.But maybe Frankie needs me to take care of her too.And if I lose sight of that, will I end up putting her in the ultimate danger?

•••••

REVIEW:CAPTIVATE is the fifth instalment in KE Osborn’s contemporary, adult NOLA Defiance MC erotic, MC romance series. This is thirty-five year old, Jay ‘Raid’ and thirty year old, club girl Frankie’s story line. CAPTIVATE can be read as a standalone 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: Due to the nature of the story line premise there may be triggers for more sensitive readers.

Told from dual first person perspectives (Raid and Frankie) CAPTIVATE follows in the wake of the appearance of ghosts from the past. Approximately fifteen years earlier our hero Jay had fallen in love with his best friend Sophie but hours before Jay was about to propose, Sophie ghosted Jay without looking back. Fast forward to present day Jay, now known as Raid, and a member of the NOLA Defiance MC, comes face to face with the woman that destroyed his heart but Sophie is sick , and she isn’t alone. Raid has a daughter, a young woman he knew nothing about, a fourteen year old teenager that is struggling with what is happening and why. Meanwhile, Raid’s attraction to club girl Frankie must be put on hold in the wake of the impending grief and fall-out of Sophie’s return. As Raid battles between head and heart, Frankie takes Addi under her wing, knowing life as she knows it is about to change. What ensues is the building relationship between Frankie and Raid, as Raid struggles to navigate fatherhood, and the death of someone he once loved.

Meanwhile, the NOLA Defiance MC continue to have problems with Iron Chains MC. From human trafficking to stolen drug shipments, the Iron Chains MC is pushing into the Defiance territory, a push that will directly affect the lives of the people Raid loves.

The relationship between Frankie and Raid is a ‘friends’ to lovers relationship. Frankie is the top club girl, and as such her job is to ensure everyone is happy and knows their place but Frankie, having been with most men in the club, only has eyes for our story line hero, a man who continues to push our heroine to the side. With the appearance of Raid’s past, Frankie accepts that his heart and mind are with someone else but our heroine is strong enough to know, that there is little reason to be jealous of a ghost from the past. The $ex scenes are erotic and passionate.

There is a large ensemble cast of colorful and dynamic secondary and supporting characters including many of the NOLA Defiance MC members and Iron Chains MC. We are introduced to Raid’s daughter Addilyn, and her mother Sophie, as well s Frankie’s friends and classmates Jasmine and Dan. The requisite evil has many faces.

CAPTIVATE is a story of secrets and lies, family and relationships, forgiveness and acceptance, grief and love. The premise is heart breaking and emotional; the romance is provocative and intense; the characters are charismatic and strong willed.

ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date February 16, 2023

I don’t believe in miracles.
Ever since she was taken.
She was simply gone, and it changed who I am as a man.

But as the years passed, the trail grew colder. I joined the club to help in my search, but what I wasn’t expecting was to meet someone new.

Lani’s funny, outgoing, absolutely beautiful.

But I have reservations.

The problem is—I’m waiting for that miracle.

But am I missing out on something amazing because I’m holding back?

Just as I let myself be open with Lani, my father shows up with that blast from the past, opening every old wound I thought I had closed.
But she brings with her the eight years of trouble.
I want to help her, to protect her.
But will the cost to save one end up with me losing the one?

•••••

REVIEW: INCINERATE is the fourth instalment in KE Osborn’s contemporary, adult NOLA DEFIANCE erotic, MC romance series -a spin off from the author’s Houston Defiance MC series. This is Grey ‘Grit’ and Leilani ‘Lani’ Mahoe’s story line. INCINERATE can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty but I recommend reading the series in order for back story and cohesion.

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

Told from dual first person perspectives (Grit and Lani) using present day and memories from the past, INCINERATE follows in the wake of the return of Grey’s childhood best friend Maddie Godfrey. Approximately eight years earlier, Maddie and her ultra-religious family disappeared without a trace, and in the ensuing years, Grey found himself prospecting for the NOLA Defiance MC in an effort to track down the girl he once loved. Fast forward to present day, Grey now known as Grit, has fallen in love with Lani Mahoe, a love matched by his worry and safety for our story line heroine, a safety in the presence of a medical disorder. The reappearance of Maddie Godfrey, with the help of Grit’s father, means Grit must come to terms with what happened and why but Grit is no longer the man he used to be, and Maddie has been subjected to years at the hands of a religious cult. As Maddie struggles to find a place with the Defiance MC, Grit knows it is time to claim Lani as his own but all does not go according to plan when a series of attacks against the MC including a robbery at their grow-op ‘plantation’, and the abduction of the woman with whom Grit has fallen in love threaten the safety of everyone involved.

Lani Mahoe struggles with epilepsy and finds herself often on the outside looking in but never thought she would fall in love with a man who had yet to let go of the past. Lani knew nothing about the woman that once called to Grit’s heart, a woman who claims she only wants friendship, and nothing else. Grit is torn between helping Maddie Godfrey, and moving on with our story line heroine but there are bigger forces at work, and Grit must choose to protect the woman he loves, and lose someone else in the process.

The relationship between Grit and Lani began in book one Gravitate. Lani is tattoo artist Kaia Mahoe’s sister-Kaia is the MC president’s old lady. Lani and Grit have danced around one another for several months, and the safe return of Maddie sets Grit on a course to claim our story line heroine. The $ex scenes are intimate and passionate without the use of over the top, sexually graphic language and text.

Grey’s brother Jones; Maddie Godfrey and her father; NOLA Defiance MC members -Hurricane and Kaia, Felix, IT specialist Raid, horticulturalist Maxxy, Bayou and Novah, Hoodoo, City, Omen, Quarter, Grudge and his son Cole; dealer Marcel; club girls Frankie and Davina; new prospect Jesse and his sister Clover, and the return of Bhodi. Not all will survive. The requisite evil has many faces.

INCINERATE is a story of betrayal and vengeance, power and control, obsession and madness, fanaticism and intolerance, love and acceptance. The premise is engrossing and riveting; the romance is seductive; the characters are energetic, dynamic and determined. INCINERATE ends on a cliff hanger -you have been warned.

ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date December 5, 2022

I hide behind humor…
Because that’s what you do to deflect the traumas of your past—to make people believe you’re something you’re not.
Completely fine.
When in fact, you’re broken—a shell of the man you want to be.

Despite my past, I made something of myself.
As the COO of my best friend’s company, I aim to be the best at everything—business, life, in the bedroom.
I earned myself an ego in all areas.
Then she walked in.
Paisley Drake—the temptation I can’t resist. Spirited. Artistic. Seductive.
I have to have a taste.
But there’s just one problem—one night with her would never be enough.
I’m that guy who always ditches the next morning.
Though she’s worked her way under my skin, my past haunts me every step of the way.
I’m going to hurt her.
But when she leaves, taking a secret with her, will our guarded hearts be open enough for us to find the happiness we least expected?

•••••

REVIEW: GUARDED HEARTS is the second instalment in KE Osborn’s contemporary, adult REVEL ROSE BILLIONAIRES erotic, romance series. This is twenty-eight year old, COO of Ensure Asset Management and billionaire Lucas Grant, and artist Paisley Drake’s story line. GUARDED HEARTS can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty but I recommend reading the series in order. Most of the events of GUARDED HEARTS run parallel to, and cross over with the events of book one HOSTILE HEARTS.

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

Told from dual first person perspectives (Paisley and Lucas) using present day and memories from the past GUARDED HEARTS follows the building but secret relationship between twenty-eight year old, COO and billionaire Lucas Grant, and artist Paisley Drake. Paisley Drake is best friends with Brianna Cox (Hostile Hearts), and Lucas Grant is the COO of his best friend’s company but Lucas doesn’t do relationships, and he is warned away from our story line heroine. A one night stand finds Lucas lusting after our story line heroine but Lucas’ past has destroyed his ability to love, his ability to accept a woman in his life. As the weeks and months pass, Lucas continues to drop in and out of Paisley’s life until Paisley’s heart is unable to withstand any more drama. Walking away is the most difficult thing Paisley has ever had to do but walking away with the secrets of Lucas’ unborn child mean Paisley is about to destroy what is left of the man that she loves. What ensues is the building but rocky relationship between Paisley and Lucas, and the fall-out as Lucas continues to struggle with the demon from his past, affecting his relationship with Paisley going forward.

Lucas Grant’s childhood was anything but normal, and the resulting chaos has left our hero a shell of his former self. Unable to move beyond the terror and nightmares, Lucas is unable to commit to the woman he loves, losing more than he could have ever imagined. Two years will pass before Lucas is able to reconnect with our story line heroine, two years wherein so much of his life is about to change.

The relationship between Lucas and Paisley begins as a one night in which Lucas all but ghosts our heroine the next morning. Intermittent contact and sexual relationships with one another will end when Lucas is caught between the past, unable to move towards a new future. The $ex scenes are intimate, erotic and intense with some scenes of bondage and discipline.

The secondary and supporting characters include the return of Brianna and Nash (Hostile Hearts, Brianna’s best friend turn Nash’s business partner Blake Branson; as well as their friends Cam, Asher,Cade and Dane; Nash’s PA Zoey, and her ex Kyle, and Lucas’ father Ray Grant.

GUARDED HEARTS is a story of secrets and lies, betrayal and abuse, attraction and obsession, understanding, forgiveness, acceptance and love. The premise is emotional and heart breaking; the romance is seductive but struggles in the face of demons from the past, and interfering but well-meaning friends; the characters are broken, embattled, charismatic yet strong.

Family is a bond.

One that can’t be broken.
But what if I want to bend the rules?

I wasn’t supposed to look at her that way. I’d practically grown up beside her. You shouldn’t ignite inside when you stare at your stepsister.

Now she’s caught the eye of someone else.Someone more sinister than me.The problem is—he’s dangerous.But is there more to him than even we are aware of?

Sharing our secret with our family should be easy. But just when we think the dust has settled, trouble comes searching, far more ferocious than before.
When all seems lost, I stand firm and fight.

Because a world without her in it, is a world I will burn to the ground

•••••

REVIEW:  HESITATE is the third instalment in KE Osborn’s contemporary, adult NOLA Defiance MC erotic, MC romance series-a spin off from the author’s HOUSTON DEFIANCE MC. This is Sargent at Arms Blaise ‘Bayou’ Ladet, and twenty-seven-year old social worker Novah Harrington’s story line. HESITATE 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.

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

NOTE: Some of the events of HESITATE cross over with, and run parallel to, the events of HOSTILE HEARTS (Revel Rose Billionaires). Novah is the sister of billionaire Nash Harrington.

Told from dual first-person perspectives (Novah and Bayou) HESITATE follows the ‘forbidden’ relationship between Sargent at Arms Blaise ‘Bayou’ Ladet, and twenty-seven year old social worker Novah Harrington. Blaise Ladet and Novah Harrington are step siblings. Novah’s mother Ingrid was once married to Blaise’s father, and alone with club President Hurricane, and Novah’s brother Nash, all four grew up together, each walking towards a different path in life. Novah and Bayou have secretly lusted after one another for as long as they can remember but Novah’s brother Nash, and Bayou’s brother Hurricane are over-protective of our story line heroine. When a client’s abusive husband takes aim at the woman he loves, Bayou becomes guardian and protector of our story line heroine but all does not go according to plan when not one, not two, but three possible predators have set their sights on Novah Harrington. What ensues is the building but secrets relationship between Novah and Bayou, and the potential fall-out as Novah finds herself at the mercy of a mad man, a killer who wants Novah as his next prize.

Novah and Bayou have danced around one another since the first time they met but Bayou refuses to cross the line of forbidden fruit, a line demarcated by responsibility and blood. Novah believes she is not worthy having been rejected by Bayou on numerous occasions, but Novah knows that family is everything to our story line hero.

The relationship between Novah and Bayou has been building throughout the series but Bayhou knows that to make Novah his own means to betray the family he now calls his own but the heart wants what the head refuses to accept, and Bayou’s need to protect Novah places our couple together for the foreseeable future. The $ex scenes are intimate, erotic and intense.

There is a large ensemble cast of colorful secondary and supporting characters including most of the members of the NOLA Defiance MC, as well as the arrival of Nash Harrington and his girlfriend Brianne; The Baroness (Houston Defiance MC; Novikov Bratva head Anton Novikov; and MC prospect Grey soon to be Grit, and the woman he loves Lani. The requisite evil has many faces.

HESITATE is a story of betrayal and vengeance; family and relationships; power and control; madness and murder. The premise is dark, gritty and raw; the romance is provocative and seductive; the characters are energetic, charismatic, determined and protective.

REVIEW: HOSTILE HEARTS is the first instalment in KE Osborn’s contemporary, adult REVEL ROSE BILLIONAIRES erotic, romance series-a spin off from the author’s NOLA Defiance MC series. This is twenty-nine year old, acquisition and mergers manager Nash Harrington, and event planner Brianna Cox’s story line. Nash Harrington is the step-brother to Hurricane and Bayou, son to Ingrid, and brother to Novah (NOLA Defiance MC). You do not have to have read the previous series but there may be some back story revealed in the MC series.

Told from dual first person perspectives (Nash and Brianna) HOSTILE HEARTS follows in the wake of Nash Harrington venturing away from his father’s control, starting a business of his own. Years early, Nash’s father left the family having had a secret family on the side. Fast forward to present day wherein Nash, having been set up to take a fall by his father, and loosing his largest account to a business rival, sets out on his own, in the hopes of surpassing his father’s control. Desperate to regain control of his lost account, Nash hires successful event planner Brianna Cox, the woman with whom he will fall in love but Brianna and Nash’s pasts about to collide, and Brianna finds herself torn between friendship, duty and contractual obligations, obligations that will pick friend against foe. What ensues is the building but forbidden relationship between Brianna and Nash, and the potential fall-out as misunderstanding, miscommunication, jealousy and revenge pull our couple in opposite directions.

Nash Harrington knew one day he would surpass his father in power and control but blindsided by backstabbing family and friends, Nash must take control of his life, beginning with distancing himself from sins of the past. Meeting Brianna Cox stirs something deep within our story line hero but Brianna’s place in his life comes with questionable associations, associations that could break our story line hero. Brianna Cox doesn’t want to destroy a life-long friendship but contractual obligations and fear of reprisal force our heroine to hurt someone she loves.

The relationship between Brianna and Nash begins as a business arrangement one in which Nash pushes a little too hard. Put off and put out by our story line hero, Brianna struggles with her attraction to a man that could all but destroy her business and her heart. The $ex scenes are passionate, seductive and intense.

We are introduced to Brianna’s roommate Paisley, and her best friend Blake, as well as Nash’s friends Lucas, Cam and Asher, as well as the cameo of Hurricane, Bayou, Novah and Ingrid.

HOSTILE HEARTS is a story of betrayal and vengeance, secrets, power and control, attraction and obsession, acceptance, forgiveness and love. The premise is emotional and engaging; the romance is captivating and erotic; the characters are energetic, powerful and charismatic.

REVIEW:ISOLATE is the second instalment in KE Osborn’s contemporary, adult NOLA Defiance MC dark, erotic, MC romance series-a spin off from the Houston Defiance MC series. This is twenty three year olds, NOLA Defiance MC vice president Jett aka City, and physical therapist Isabelle ‘Izzy’ Buchanan’s story line. ISOLATE can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty. Any important information from the previous story line is revealed where necessary.

Told from dual first person perspectives (Izzy and City) ISOLATE follows the childhood friends to lovers relationship between twenty three year olds, NOLA Defiance MC vice president Jett aka City, and physical therapist Isabelle ‘Izzy’ Buchanan. Izzy and Jett have been best friends for as along as they can remember, doing everything together since a very young age but City’s membership with the Defiance MC LA brought Izzy up close and personal with City’s Defiance brother Dice, a brother who quickly fell in love with our story line heroine. Refusing to get between a ‘brother’ and his girl, City requested a transfer to the NOLA Defiance MC, where he battled to forget about the woman he loved. Now the NOLA Defiance MC’s new vice president, City struggles when an injured Izzy Buchanan is at their front door, asking for protection against the man she once loved, a man who has sacrificed her life for a debt owed. Dice is no longer the man they remember but a man whose habits have placed Izzy in the direct line of fire. What ensues is the rebuilding relationship and romance between Izzy and City, and the potential fall-out as Dice demands Izzy’s return placing Izzy once again in the direct line of fire.

The relationship between Izzy and City is a childhood best friends to frenemies to lovers relationship in which Izzy never understood City’s move to NOLA; his reluctance to reveal the truth, or the emotional ties between our leading couple. Not intending to play the two best friends against one another, Izzy not only made a target of City, but Dice’s lifestyle made a target of our story line heroine. The $ex scenes are intimate, erotic and intense.

There are a large number of colorful secondary and supporting characters including City’s former best friend Dice (Defiance LA), as well as several members of LA Defiance MC. We are reintroduced to Hurricane and Kaia (Gravitate 1), Kaia’s sister Lani, Felix, IT whiz Raid, Grudge, horticulturalist Maxxy, prospects Grey and Bodhi; Bayou, Hoodoo, Quarter; Hurricane’s step-siblings social worker Novah Harrington, and investor Nash Harrington, as well as club girl Frankie. The requisite evil has many faces with the return of the Novikov Russian Bratva, and loan shark/businessman Gambit. Nash’s story line can be read in Hostile Hearts.

ISOLATE is a story of betrayal and vengeance, power and control, addiction and desperation, acceptance and love. The fast paced premise is gritty and heart breaking; the romance is erotic and seductive; the characters are energetic, charismatic, and captivating.

ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date May 19, 2022

I’m not a decent guy.
I don’t do commitment.
Women know the score before they land in my bed.

But there is something about this feisty tattoo artist. She makes my blood boil. But with that pure, unadulterated rage comes an ache deep inside I simply can’t ignore.
I despise her.
I shouldn’t want her.
The problem is—every part of me does.
And it’s a complication I can no longer ignore.

With threats against the club from our persistent rivals, it’s becoming clear we can’t be sure who to trust.
As the saying goes… keep your friends close and your enemies closer.
But without knowing, I’ve invited mine right in, and I’m falling for her hard.
And when we hit the ground, I know it’s gonna hurt!

REVIEW:GRAVITATE is the first instalment in KE Osborn’s contemporary, adult NOLA DEFIANCE MC dark, erotic, MC romance series-a spin off from the author’s Houston Defiance MC series. This is NOLA Defiance MC president Lynx ‘Hurricane’ Ladet, and tattoo artist Kaia Mahoe’s story line. The NOLA Defiance MC is first introduced in the author’s SURVIVE (Houston Defiance MC 8). Some of the events of GRAVITATE cross over with the events of SURVIVE.

NOTE: If you have not read SURVIVE (Houston Defiance MC 8) there may be spoilers in my review.

WARNING: Due to the nature of the story line premise including graphic violence and breath play (autoerotic asphyxiation), there may be triggers for more sensitive readers.

Told from three first person perspectives including Hurricane and Kaia, following several intersection pathways, GRAVITATE focuses on the building relationship between NOLA Defiance MC president Lynx ‘Hurricane’ Ladet, and tattoo artist Kaia Mahoe, and the impending war between the NOLA Defiance MC, and the Novikov Russian Bratva. Weeks earlier NOLA Defiance MC president Lynx ‘Hurricane’ Ladet lost his best friend and club VP Razor during a battle with the Bayou Militia, a battle they were called in to help with the Houston Defiance MC. To honor his fallen friend, Hurricane commissions a memorial tattoo where he will meet tattoo artist Kaia Mahoe, the woman that will immediately get under his skin. From the outset, Kaia is ascerbic and condescending towards our story line hero but a communication mix-up finds Hurricane’s attitude and actions towards Kaia angry and antagonistic. Weeks will pass, and our couple will run into one another on numerous occasions including a tattoo convention in Vegas but their caustic meetings continue to be a prelude to future interactions. Meanwhile, the Russian Bratva is attempting to take over the drug territory from the NOLA Defiance MC, an attempt that is going to pull the MC into a deadly and dangerous war for control. What ensues is the building but antagonistic relationship between Hurricane and Kaia, and the potential fall-out when betrayal destroys the woman with whom Hurricane is falling in love.

NOLA Defiance MC needs a new VP, and Hurricane’s brother Bayou refuses to accept the position offered. To fill the vacant seat, Hurricane approaches the Los Angeles chapter of the Defiance MC, and requests the transfer of their sargent at arms City, a transfer that will alleviate City’s growing anxiety with the Los Angeles MC.

The relationship between Hurricane and Kaia begins when Hurricane commissions a tattoo from Kaia Mahoe but Kaia is a strong-willed, independent woman whose private life is about to cross over with the NOLA Defiance MC. Hurricane is unable to get past his attraction to Kaia but a perceived betrayal against the Defiance MC finds Kaia struggling to understand what has happened and why, as she faces the wrath of the Defiance MC. When the truth is revealed, Kaia is unable to forgive the man with whom she was falling in love, a man who is battling between head and heart knowing he destroyed the heart of the woman he loved. The $ex scenes are erotic and intense including scenes of breath play and autoerotic asphyxiation.

There is a large ensemble cast of secondary and supporting characters as GRAVITATE introduces the members of the NOLA Defiance MC including new VP City, Felix, Raid, horticulturalist Maxxy, Bodhi, Omen,Ghoul, Hoodoo, Quarter, and club girl Frankie. We meet Kaia’s twenty-five year old sister Lani who struggles with a life-threatening disability, and their father Maka Mahoe; Hurricane’s brother Bayou, their step-mother Ingrid, and step siblings Novah and Nash Harrington; MC member Grudge and his son, aspiring boxer Cole; tattoo shop owner Jackson, receptionist Quinn, and boxing team member Yuri. The requisite evil has many faces. City’s story line is next in ISOLATE.

GRAVITATE is a complex and detailed story of betrayal and vengeance, power and control, that introduces the back ground and players in the NOLA Defiance MC. The premise is dramatic, haunting, raw and gritty; the characters are edgy and intense; the romance is provocative and impassioned.
