ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date July 20. 2021

The hotter the flame, the bigger the fire.

I’m a smokejumper.
I go where the flames take me.
And right now, it’s sending me from Baton Rouge to New Orleans.
Louisiana has called for a state of emergency because of a category five hurricane.
First responders from all over the country are coming to help.
It’s where I run into Ryan. A paramedic from Las Vegas.
He’s brave, smart, and gay.
I don’t have an issue with that.
And while I’m getting to know him, I start to battle a different kind of fire.
Our jobs are dangerous, and I don’t believe in waiting for the right time to get what I want.
I’ve never wanted a man.
But I want him.
There’s a problem. He has one rule.
He doesn’t do straight guys.
I’ll have to jump in the smoke and flames between us to show him I have no hesitation.
I’m a cowboy who loves the thrill of a wild ride.
But the storm? It’s far from over. Our lives are at stake.
I live my life to the fullest and I won’t die with regrets.
Ryan is the blaze I never want to fight.
If we go down, we will burn together.
Extinguishing us is not an option.
And my MC will have to get over it.

REVIEW: RAINBOW is the first instalment in KL Savage’s contemporary, adult RUTHLESS KING MC: BATON ROUGE erotic, MM, LGBTQ, MC romance series- a spin off from the author’s RUTHLESS KINGS MC. This is thirty-two year old, Ruthless King member and fire jumper Nathan ‘Rainbow’ Kennedy, and paramedic Ryan Hathaway’s story line.

WARNING: Due to the graphic nature and extreme violence, there may be triggers for more sensitive readers.

Told from dual first person perspectives (Ryan and Nathan) RAINBOW follows the building romance and relationship between Ruthless King member and fire jumper Nathan ‘Rainbow’ Kennedy, and paramedic Ryan Hathaway. Fifteen years earlier Nathan, and his brother Greer lost their parents to a horrendous California wildfire, and in the ensuing time Nathan and Greer found a home with the Ruthless Kings MC in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. Fast forward to present day wherein, the arrival of a new paramedic stirs something deep within Nathan Kennedy, something he had never once considered or thought to explore. Enter Las Vegas paramedic Ryan Hathaway, and the man with whom Nathan will fall in love. What ensues is the building romance and relationship between Nathan and Ryan, and the potential fall-out as the MC is targeted, leaving a trail of broken and dead bodies in the wake.

Someone is targeting the Ruthless Kings MC: Baton Rouge since the arrival of Ryan Hathaway. Long time members have been brutally attacked, killed or come under suspicion for aggression and attempted take down of the young paramedic, and Rainbow is determined to destroy the monster attacking the people he loves.

The relationship between Ryan and Nathan is one of immediate attraction but until Ryan’s arrival, Nathan never considered himself gay, bi or pan. The Ruthless Kings MC: Baton Rouge is accepting of the sexual lifestyles of many of its’ members but someone within the ranks is taking aim at those who would otherwise partake of an alternative lifestyle. Ryan knows that to fall for Nathan means eventually leaving with a broken heart but Nathan is determined to proves Ryan is worthy of his love, even though somebody has targeted the Ruthless Kings MC. The M/M $ex scenes are erotic, intense and provocative.

There is a large ensemble cast of secondary and supporting characters with the introduction of the Baton Rouge MC. As well as the MC, several members of the local fire department and fire jumpers are up front and center with our story line couple.

RAINBOW is a story of friendships, family, betrayal and loss. A heart breaking tale of discrimination and homophobia such that the acts of violence directed at several of the local MC is cruel, demeaning and tragic-RAINBOW is not a story of hearts and flowers, but a story of hatred and love, revenge and redemption. The premise is dramatic, dark, gritty, and tragic; the romance is edgy ; the characters are determined, inspiring, animated and passionate.

How the hell do I get myself in these situations? Out of all the jobs as a paramedic, I find myself constantly in front of biker gangs more than regular patients. I mean, I leave Vegas and come to Baton Rouge to do a favor for my boss and end up in Ruthless Kings territory, again? Do they multiply when I blink or something?
Should have told my boss that I wouldn’t swing by his old stomping ground to help cover a staffing shortage his friend was experiencing. It seemed convenient. Stay in Baton Rouge until the storm passes, then head down to the coast where they’ll need me most.
Now I’m here, and I can’t tell if the biker looking at me wants to eat me, fuck me, or kill me.
“For a little guy, you sure know your way around bone,” Butcher grunts.
“For a guy named Butcher, you sure do complain a lot.” I press the fresh bandage against his thigh, maybe a little harder than necessary, and he growls at me.
I always liked riling up a guy bigger than me. I don’t know why. I know I don’t have a death wish, but it’s fun, and usually, bigger guys won’t pick on me. I’m sure my luck will run out soon, but until then, I’m going to poke every single bear.
And giggle as I run away.
“Okay. I’ll just say it was an accident and that no one got shot, or we’d have to report it to the police, and I don’t feel like staying here longer than necessary. Not that your hospitality isn’t… wonderful,” I add, only to sound more like a jerk.
The big guy, the one that wears the patch that says Prez, laughs as he strokes his chin with his fingers. “You’re welcome back anytime, Ryan. We appreciate your willingness to… cooperate.” He reaches into his cut pocket—I learned they weren’t vests after being corrected a few years ago—and pulls out a stack of money.
Here’s the thing about bricks of cash like this: it’s most likely illegal money. Maybe it’s drug money or blood money, but honestly? I don’t really care. I have student loan debt to pay.
I pluck the cash out of his hand and tuck it into my paramedic bag. “It’s been a pleasure doing business with you.” I give them a mock salute and swallow down my nerves as I wade through the very large bodies covered in leather.
Now that I’m looking at them, I can’t help but wonder if they’re going to let me leave. Maybe I’ll get lucky. Perhaps they’ll want to take turns with my body and ravish me. I might be a smart man, but I’m still a man, and somehow these bikers get better looking with each state I end up in.
Ah, a man can dream, can’t he?
Lye, according to his patch on his vest—I mean, cut—opens the door for me.
Once I’m outside, I take a deep breath and don’t bother looking back. Of course, the quicker I get out of here, the better.
“Hey!”
A deep voice with a twangy edge has me freezing mid-step next to the rig, and I try not to panic. Did one of the guys see me check them out? I didn’t. I think I kept my eyes to myself. I thrust my shoulders back and open the doors to the rig to toss the medical bag inside. I close the left side and see the most handsome man I’ve seen in my entire life. I suck in a breath—no—he stole my ability to breathe, looking as good as he does.

K.L. Savage decided they were tired of looking for the kind of books they wanted to read. They had an itch that needed to be scratched, and as every girl knows, nothing scratches better than an alpha.

They write about gritty, alpha males, sometimes their dark sides, and the women they love.
If you have the same itch, their alpha males should fix that.

REVIEW:SLINGSHOT is the fifteenth instalment in KL Savage’s contemporary, adult RUTHLESS KINGS MC erotic, dark MC romance series. This is thirty-five year old, Noah ‘Slingshot’ Connors, and twenty-two year old, Natalia Moretti’s story line. SLINGSHOT can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty but I recommend reading the series in order for back story and cohesion, or at the very least MATEO (Moretti #1).

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

Told from dual first person perspectives (Natalia and Slingshot) SLINGSHOT follows the building relationship between thirty-five year old, Noah ‘Slingshot’ Connors, and twenty-two year old, Natalia Moretti’. Natalia Moretti is the daughter of Las Vegas Kingpin Mateo Moretti, and as such is off limits, especially in the wake of her recent abduction, and subsequent rescue by the Ruthless Kings MC but Noah ‘Slingshot’ Connors fell in love the moment he laid eyes on our story line heroine, and placed himself in the direct line of fire as it pertained to Natalia’s father. As Natalia and Slingshot struggled to stay under Mateo’s radar, someone else is working behind the scenes in an effort to recapture what doesn’t belong. What ensues is the quickly building romance and relationship between Natalia and Slingshot, and the potential fall-out as Slingshot’s past return, demanding everything and more.

Noah Connor’s life spiralled out of control in the aftermath of his mother’s death by cancer, over twenty years earlier. Emancipating himself from his father at the age of sixteen, Noah eventually joined the Ruthless Kings MC, still pining for a family of his own. Meeting Natalia gave Noah thoughts for a future but our hero fell in love with a Mafia princess, and knew it would be an uphill battle to claim Natalia as his own. Natalia Moretti never knew hardship but as the daughter of Mateo Moretti, Natalia has always had a target on her back. Falling for Slingshot aka Noah Connors, meant pushing all of her father’s buttons but a more lethal and dangerous threat is about to be exposed.

The relationship between Natalia and Slingshot is one of immediate attraction; insta lust to love for our story line couple that threatens the relationship between Natalia and her father, and the Ruthless Kings and Mateo Moretti. Natalia is a natural submissive, and Slingshot demands submission in the bedroom, and more. The $ex scenes are intimate, erotic and intense with scenes of spanking, flogging, and erotic-asphyxiation.

There is a large ensemble cast of secondary and supporting characters including several members of the Ruthless Kings MC. Poodle is still grieving the loss of his beloved pet, while Reaper and Sarah are about to face a possible loss of their own. We are introduced to Natalia’s friends including Cora and Benji-Benji may be the Ruthless Kings newest prospect. The NOLA chapter of the Ruthless Kings make a cameo appearance. I am hoping the author has plans for their stories-SEER anyone !!

SLINGSHOT is a story of family, betrayal, vengeance and retribution. The fast paced and character driven premise is emotional, raw and twisted; the romance is compelling and energetic; the characters are edgy, spirited and animated.

“Knives points to Benji. “We like you. What’s your name? What do you do? What’s your future like?”
“Knives, leave him alone.” Skirt groans. “He’s just a wee one.”
“He isn’t just ‘a wee one.’ He held his own. Who are you?” Knives asks, not sticking out his hand but running that damn ninja star across his knuckles like always.
“Benji,” my friend says. “Natalia, I’m so sorry about your eye. I shouldn’t have started anything. I didn’t like how he talked about you ladies.”
“No, you did good, kid,” Knives says. “You want something bigger, badder, and a bit messier, come prospect. We’re always looking for new blood.”
Benji rubs his jaw and nods. “Yeah, alright. Anything is better than going to the NFL to follow dad’s footsteps.”
Knives tosses his head back and laughs. “Ah, kid. You have no idea how many of us have fucking daddy issues.”
Slingshot comes outside, and he marches to me with powerful strides. The sun glints against his leather cut and his blue eyes; god, they hypnotize me. I don’t think he knows the power he exudes because he’s always holding it in. Without stopping, he wraps his hand around the back of my neck and bends me, dipping me over his knee as he kisses me, stealing my breath as his own.
A few catcalls sound out, and he pulls me up quickly, too quickly for me to piece together a single thought as his thumb brushes over my lips. “You didn’t go back to your seat. Good girls listen, don’t they?”
I nod and rub my thighs together when my clit begins to throb.
“Make it up to me by going out with me, right now.”
“Now? Right now?” I look around at my group of friends, and they’re all nodding.
“She’d love to go out.” Nora’s hand presses against my back, and she pushes me toward Slingshot.
“Well, there’s a bonfire tonight at the house,” Benji suggests. “If you want to come.”
“How about we meet you there? I want to change into something…better.”
Slingshot brings his soft lips to my ears. “Are you trying to tease me, Good Girl?”
I nod.
“Make sure you don’t wear panties, then. Text me the address.” He gives my behind a good squeeze as he leaves but then backtracks. “And be good while I’m gone, Natalia. You don’t want to know what happens when you misbehave.”
Oh, I do. I really do.
With hearts in my eyes and liquid heat between my thighs, I watch him mount his bike, which only leads me to think of all the ways he can mount me. The bikes grumble to life. The rumbles are deafening and shake the beverages on the table: the ice clinks together—the silverware trembles against the white tablecloth.
Slingshot does something I don’t expect him to do and reminds me how soft and tender his heart is.
He blows me a kiss in front of everyone without caring what others will think.
My knees are weak, and my brain is a complete fog as he pulls away.
“Oh my god, girl. You are so screwed,” Faye cheers before downing her drink.
“Nah, she’s about to be screwed. Right into a mattress!” Cora hollers and thrusts her hips into the air.
And then they begin to sing that damn song in The Sweetest Thing, and even Benji is cracking up laughing, but that’s not what makes it so bad.
Other people join in.
And I’ve never heard the word penis so much in my life.
I never want to watch that movie again.
Also, my friends need to come with a warning label. Society is never ready. I’m never ready.

RELEASE DATE : June 15, 2021

I’m a car accident waiting to happen and it’s only a matter of time before I crash.
Every day that passes, every second I blink, the need to drink grows.
Meetings aren’t enough.
My will power isn’t enough.
Sunnie…
The second I see her, I want to crash into her instead
But she may not be enough to kill the need
I’m trying…but I can’t try anymore.
And when Sunnie tells me something that I can’t handle?
I break.
I run away.
I sprint to the nearest watering hole.
Away from life, from responsibilities, from fear…
I’ve never been good with change. Everything is safe right now.
I’m in a bubble and I’ve kept Sunnie there too.
She wants more than that kind of life.
I don’t know how to give it to her.
Her words play on repeat in my head.
“Maybe isn’t fair for us to sacrifice the things we want if it means being together?”
If I don’t have her, I have nothing.
But you know what I do have? Addiction.
And I’m staring at the bottle.
She’s beautiful.
????. ???. ?????.
And everything will be okay.

••••••••

REVIEW: ORBITING MARS is the twelfth instalment in KL Savage’s contemporary, adult RUTHLESS KINGS MC: LAS VEGAS erotic, MC, romance series focusing on the members of the Ruthless Kings MC, Las Vegas chapter. This is the continuing story of Sunnie and Patrick Neil aka Pirate. ORBITING MARS can be read as a stand alone but I recommend reading PIRATE for some back story of our leading couple.

Told from dual first person perspectives (Sunnie and Patrick) ORBITING MARS continues to focus on the building relationship between Patrick ‘Pirate’ Neil, and his old lady Sunnie but Patrick begins to spiral out of control, and the results are going to force Sunnie to reconsider her future with the man that she loves. Patrick is unable to let go of the past, and Sunnie is about to make a life changing announcement that sends Patrick over the edge, an edge that neither may never come back.

ORBITING MARS also focuses on the next generation of Ruthless Kings MC as the pregnant old ladies including Reaper and Sarah, Doc and Joanna welcome their new arrivals but, once again, not everything goes according to plan including a heart breaking loss for someone close.

KL Savage pulls the reader into an emotional,thought provoking, raw and gritty look at addiction and recovery, hope and loss, love and acceptance. The premise is edgy and dramatic; the characters are broken and struggling; the romance is raw and needy.

No one knows where I am. I have my phone off. I didn’t tell anyone where I was going, and I didn’t speak a word to Sunnie about it. I’m too afraid to. After all the progress I’ve made and all the steps I’ve taken, I’m starting to relapse.
I want rum.
I want it so fucking desperately it keeps me up at night. I dream about it. When I drink coffee, I find myself wishing rum were in the cup instead. I’ll settle for anything at this point. Vodka. Whiskey. Gin. I don’t care. My mouth is watering for it.
My body aches for it. My muscles hurt and spasm, and there is this constant throb in the base of my skull.
Slamming.
Pounding.
Screaming at me to give in.
I rub my temples and exhale a shaky breath. My fingers tremble around my sobriety chip as I fumble with it, twisting and flipping it in my palm.
The room fills with people, and the cheap metal chairs scrape against the floor, echoing in the wide-open space. To the left is a table topped with coffee, tea, water, and soda. To the left of the coffee maker are packets of sugar in a container and a bottle of coffee creamer.
Maybe I just need to drink something, and the craving will stop. I stand, rubbing my sweaty palms against my jeans. There are a few new faces here tonight, and they’re hovering around the beverage table, away from the regulars. Ah, I remember standing in the back, hoping to not be seen. It’ll get easier. It helps being surrounded by people with the same struggle.
I grab a Styrofoam cup and fill it halfway, adding a dash of creamer. I don’t bother stirring in it. It isn’t to wake up. It’s just to do something other than think about alcohol. I take a sip and let the hot java sear my throat, hoping like hell it burns the addiction right out of me.
A younger woman, possibly no more than eighteen, is stirring her tea next to the table. She looks like she’s seen better days. She has bright blue hair, which I think is so cool. I’ve never seen anyone pull off a color like that. She seems sad and is a bit too thin. By the track marks on her arms, I’ll say that has something to do with it.
Maybe I can introduce her to Sunnie.
“Hi, I’m Patrick.” I introduce myself to try and break the ice, showing her that we aren’t a scary bunch.
“Poppy.” Her hand meets mine in a firm shake.
I thought it would be limper, considering how she looks.
“So, what’s your vice, Poppy?” I lean against the pillar and sip the bitter coffee.
It sure the fuck doesn’t go down as smooth as rum.
“Heroin and Vodka. You?” She lifts her eyes to mine, and the dark circles take me back to the early days of recovery.
“Rum, but I drank just about anything.”
She nods as if she understands. Her eyes dart around the room. I can tell she’s feeling overwhelmed. “I don’t know if I can do this,” she admits.
“I get it, but don’t put so much pressure on yourself. You don’t have to speak, but it helps.”
“Is this your first meeting?” she stares at me, hopeful.
I snort, bringing the cup to my lips. “Try my thousandth, maybe? I don’t know. It’s up there. I don’t come much anymore because I’ve been doing better.”
She cocks her head and analyzes me. “Why are you here today?”
“Because right now, I wish this coffee was rum, and I’m this close,” I hold my finger and thumb barely apart, “this fucking close, to saying fuck everything just to get a drink.”

The road is bumpy, a minefield of explosives with her debt and my pain.
Every chance she takes on me is a step I take to better myself.

Love is a surprise.

A dart that Ruby tossed, and it hit me in the middle of my chest.
Unleashing… everything.

I’m my own target. If there’s one thing I can do, it’s aim.

REVIEW:BULLSEYE is the eleventh instalment in KL Savage’s contemporary, adult RUTHLESS KINGS MC LAS VEGAS, dark, erotic, MC romance series focusing on the members of the Ruthless Kings MC Las Vegas chapters. This is thirty-six year old, Ruthless Kings MC Sergeant-At-Arms Waylon ‘Bullseye’ Presley, and boutique owner Ruby Raine’s story line. BULLSEYE can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty but I recommend reading the series in order for back story and cohesion.

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

Told from dual first person perspectives (Ruby and Bullseye) BULLSEYE follows the building romance and relationship between thirty-six year old, Ruthless Kings MC Sergeant-At-Arms Waylon ‘Bullseye’ Presley, and boutique owner Ruby Raine, Ruby and Bullseye have been dancing around one another for several months but Bullseye struggles with demons from the past and believes he is not worthy of our heroine’s love. Ruby, meanwhile, is struggling to keep her business afloat when she gets an offer she cannot refuse but a late night attack against our story line heroine finds Ruby under the protection and guardianship of Bullseye and the Ruthless Kings MC. What ensues is the building romance and relationship between Bullseye and Ruby, and the potential fall-out as Bullseye’s past rears comes back seeking vengeance, promising to continue what was started years before.

Waylon Presley does not remember a time when he was happy. Struggling to move on from the past, our hero considers to suffer, years later, in the aftermath of horrendous sexual abuse at the hands of the people he believed were his family. Years would pass, lives would be lost, and Waylon, now calling himself Bullseye, seeks out a life full of pain and misery. The only bright spot in his life died eighteen years earlier but Ruby’s presence is enough to break down the walls he erected years before.

The relationship between Ruby and Bullseye begins as a mutual attraction but it is not until Ruby is attacked that Bullseye see so much more than the untouchable woman with whom he would fall in love. Ruby Raine knows that there is something dangerous and dark in Bullseye’s past but breaking through his walls will take more than she has the ability to pull forth. The $ex scenes are intimate, erotic, seductive and intense including scenes of voyeurism.

There is a large ensemble cast of secondary and supporting characters including many of the previous story line couples. All of the member of the Ruthless Kings MC place their life on the line for our story line hero knowing there is a monster lurking below the surface of a man consumed by the monsters from his past.

BULLSEYE is a raw, gritty and powerful story of betrayal, abuse, nightmares and loss. The premise is dramatic, intense, heart breaking and dark; the romance is edgy, provocative and traumatic; the characters are broken and tragic.

Everyone’s room has a little history.
Where is his?
I tiptoe to the dresser. Pause. I cut a glance back to the door as if I’m about to get caught, but nothing’s there. After a minute, I continue. I open one drawer and roll my eyes.
Socks.
All mismatched.
“Of course,” I mumble.
I close that drawer and open the next.
Oh. Underwear.
Sexy underwear. None of that saggy Fruit of the Loom shit, but Grade-A nut hugging undies. I hold one up, and it feels like spandex. It has to be some type of stretchy material. Damn, I bet he looks so good in these as they cling to every curve.
Imagining them stretched over his tree trunk thighs, suctioning over his cock, and pulled taut over his plump ass like a second skin.
“God bless the woman who made this man,” I say silently to God, or whoever’s idea it was to make such a fine specimen.
I keep the drawer open because I’m nowhere near done with it. I want to see what else he has in the goody forbidden drawer. “I’ll be back,” I whisper to the sexy spandex briefs. “I’ll miss you.”
My knees pop as I squat to open the last drawer, and what I find surprises me.
It’s empty.
I tap my hand around the drawer, and the back end pops. I freeze. Oh, shit. I’m about to find something I’m not supposed to see. That was the point. This was what I wanted. I take a deep breath. Here it is. Here is Bullseye’s history that he keeps hidden away. Part of me feels terrible for just snooping around like this, but he left me in here, so…
With a slow, careful hand, I take out the board, ready for whatever surprises might be waiting for me. My imagination runs wild—maybe it’s photos of him and his lovers. Maybe it’s a secret stash of mementos. Maybe it’s… oh.
It’s nothing.
Just a bunch of cash and darts. That’s disappointing. I frown and dig around, even more, trying to find a dirty secret, but that’s all I see. Just stacks of cash and some of his darts. Nothing that tells me about Bullseye’s history. I’m coming up empty-handed.
“What are you doing?”
I scream, then hold my hand to my chest when I hear Bullseye’s voice. I look up to see him standing in the doorway, arms crossed and staring at me. “Uh, I’m snooping,” I answer honestly.
His eyes drop to my chest, and that’s when I remember I’m still holding a pair of sexy undies. I’m holding them close since he scared me.
“Need some underwear, Spitfire?” he tsks, walking into the room and shutting the door. “Cash? Both?”
“No.” I toss the underwear in the drawer they belong in and close it, then close the secret cash drawer. “I wanted to find something personal, I guess.”
“Disappointed that you didn’t?” He takes a seat on the bed, and the springs groan from his weight.
“A little bit.” I take the spot next to him and evaluate his face. His eyes are red, as if he’s been crying. A few things start to click together. He doesn’t have anything personal in his room because everything he deems personal, he keeps close to his heart.
So if I want him, if I want to get to know him, I have to earn him.

They write about gritty, alpha males, sometimes their dark sides, and the women they love.
If you have the same itch, their alpha males should fix that.

REVIEW: MERCY is the firs instalment in KL Savage’s contemporary, adult RUTHLESS HELLHOUNDS MC: Ruthless Underworld erotic, dark, MC romance series-another spin off from the author’s RUTHLESS KINGS MC. This is US Navy SEAL and Undercover FBI agent Andrey ‘Mercy’ Machado, and Michelle Douglas’ story line. Mercy was first introduced in Skirt.

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

Told from dual first person perspectives (Mercy and Michelle) MERCY is a prequel, of sorts, set twenty-five years in the past, that focuses on the relationship between best friends Andrey ‘Mercy’ Machado, and Michelle Douglas . Andrey, Brandon and Michelle had always been best friends for most of their lives but Andrey Machado was trained as a US Navy SEAL, and his next deployment was ten weeks away. Spending his final weeks in New Orleans, Louisiana with our story line heroine, Andrey would profess his love for a woman who never knew peace in the years that followed. Fast forward to present day, Andrey Machado, now known as Mercy, discovers that Michelle gave birth to his daughter twenty five years earlier, a young woman who now struggles with mental disorders in the wake of years of abuse at the hands of her step-father. With his beloved, his parents and his best friend Brandon dead, Mercy takes the reins of the RUTHLESS HELLHOUNDS MC, a position that places him in a position to take down the people that destroyed his life.

MERCY is a dark, gritty, and heart breaking prequel that reveals the love between Andrey and Michelle, and the life Michelle had desperately tried to escape. The premise is revealing, dramatic and intense; the characters are broken, desperate and lost; the romance is passionate, seductive and fated.

“Okay.” Brandon slaps his hands together and rubs them villainously. “Let’s go get our palms read.”
“In there?” I point to the double-gallery house behind him. There isn’t a sign. There’s a blue neon light in the shape of a palm in the window, and in the middle it says, ‘Palm Readings.’ Nothing else. No business name or anything. If anything, the building gives me the creeps. It’s two blocks over from Bourbon Street, so it isn’t as busy. It’s dark; the only light illuminating the sidewalk is from the blue glow of the sign.
“Look, this place has got to be legit, right? I saw a flyer at the bar,” Brandon protests.
Michelle is grabbing my hand tight and hiding behind me, peeking out from around me. “It looks creepy,” she whispers, just as the wind blows, causing the wind chimes hanging above the doorway to tinkle mysteriously.
I narrow my eyes at the musical instruments creating gorgeous high-pitched tunes, but the closer I look at them and the more my eyes adjust to the night, I begin to notice something off about them. I take a step forward, the porch groaning as I step onto it.
“What are you doing?” Michelle hisses to keep her voice low so no one inside hears us.
Doubtful, since no one seems to be here.
“How have we lived in New Orleans all this time and not done this? I’m excited.” Brandon goes to knock, but I grab his wrist before he can.
“Because locals fucking know better. Either you dive into the real shit or you don’t. Tourists don’t care,” I explain.
I keep my arm stretched out to keep Michelle behind me. Something feels off. I look around noticing no one else around. The upbeat jazz music has faded in the distance, but the cheers of drunk people can still be heard.
The clonks of hooves tap against the road, which has me turning my head to see a horse and carriage. The loud wail of the chimes rings again, bringing my attention back to the odd shapes. Are those… my eyes widen when I finally see what I think they are.
“Oh my god, are those bones?” I reach up to touch them to see if maybe they feel real, but Michelle stops me.
“Don’t you dare. If they are bones, you could catch something…”
“They aren’t real. Come on.” Brandon runs his finger over what looks like a ribcage. “It’s supposed to be spooky. Gives it the ‘real feel.'”
“Your friend is right, mon cher.” An old woman’s Cajun accent has us all jumping and taking a step back.
When the hell did she open the door?
“‘Dem bones are from a cat. Don’t worry. It was already dead. Did not want to let it go to waste.” She rings the chimes by pulling the spine that sways in the middle and runs it across the ribs to create more music.
Honestly, now all I hear are sad meows.

REVIEW:CHAOTIC is the second instalment in KL Savage’s contemporary, adult RUTHLESS ASYLUM erotic, dark, romance series-a spin off from the author’s RUTHLESS KINGS MC series. This is the continuing story of Chloe/Jessica Jone’s and Zain Rolands. CHAOTIC should not be read as a stand alone as it picks up after the events of book one LUNATIC.

WARNING: CHAOTIC deals with issues of mental health, abuse and murder. Due to the graphic violence and nature of the story line premise, there may be triggers for more sensitive readers.

SOME BACKGROUND: The Ruthless Kings MC purchased a former asylum in an effort to contain a violent assassin who targeted the members of the MC. With the return of Reaper’s uncle Zain, the asylum will become home to Zain, and a number of former asylum inmates with no place to call home.

Told from three first person perspectives (Zain, Chloe, Jessica) CHAOTIC continues to follow the unusual relationship between Zain Roland and Chloe/Jessica Jones. Chloe Jones suffers with DID (Dissociative Identity Disorder) and as such Zain never quite knows which woman he loves but Chloe is desperate to contact her father, and in doing so, sets into motion a series of events that lead to Chloe’s recapture, and commitment to another institution, a hospital where the people in charge, are sicker than the patients they control. Determined and frantic to rescue the woman he loves, Zain calls in help from the Ruthless Kings MC, leaving a trail of dead and battered bodies in their wake.

CHAOTIC is another quick read; a novella length story line focusing on mental illness, abuse, desperation and love. Zain struggles with bi-polar disorder and spends most of the story line manic and wild. Chloe endures several episodes and attacks that reveal a appearance of new personalities, personalities meant to protect our heroine when everything goes wrong. The premise is disturbing, dark and startling-KL Savage pulls the reader into a world of madness and mayhem; the characters are desperate, frantic, lost and uncontrolled; the relationship is unconventional and unusual.

ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date April 6, 2021

Instincts are all we have to rely on.
And mine were spot on.
There are a few things I don’t like to talk about in life.
My father.
And Kansas.
I hate him, and I hate that godforsaken state.
To this day, I haven’t loved because there’s a fear.
An inkling.
An instinct that I will be just like him.
I convinced myself our blood was rotten, tainted, and sour.
I believe I didn’t have the ability to be faithful or loyal.
But then after a blizzard, a sailboat washed to shore.
And she was there.
She’s here at the clubhouse now.
Violet Winston.
A name that matches the fields of lavender of her eyes.
I have no right to want her.
I can’t love her.
I’ll ruin her.
The more I get to know her, the harder I fall.
Usually, there’s a calm after the storm.
But not this time…Between her father being a drug dealer.
The drugs hidden in the boat.
And the man that wants his drugs.
We are about to feel the havoc of a hurricane.
Truths hit us out of nowhere and they hurt worse than a lie ever did.
Love tests us and rips us open. Friendships are lost. Loyalty is damned.
I’m not in Kansas anymore.
But Jersey hurts just the same.

What ensues is the building romance and relationship between Kansas and Violet, and the potential fall-out as Violet is targeted, threatening the growing love between our leading couple.

I wake up in the middle of the night to the sound of whimpering. For a second, I don’t know where I am, but then I hear a soft beep of a monitor and realize I’m with Springs. I glance down, and my nose gets buried in the bush of her unruly, wild, curly hair. I’ve never seen hair like this before. It’s how I came up with the name Springs. Each strand of hair looks like a tightly wound coil or spring.
Since I don’t know her name, I’ve been calling her Springs.
She quiets down and settles against me again, and I do something weird, something I’ve never done before, and I’m glad she’s asleep for it.
I inhale the scent of her hair, and my eyes roll to the back of my head when I smell peaches. I have to hold back a groan and many, many other things that are not appropriate right now.
I’m such an ass.
She rolls away from me, and blood rushes through my arm. Static tingles my fingers, and I slide my arm out from under her and then fix the sheet as it slides down her shoulders. She has a small tattoo right under her collarbone, simple, delicate, and sophisticated. It’s a simple flower, a rose. The line work is thin, which gives it a feminine, elegant appearance. I want to lean down and kiss it so badly, but it’s selfish thinking, considering everything she’s been through. I shouldn’t want her like I do. I have no right.
There are a few things I tell myself to stay away from.
Love.
And hate.
I like to be balanced. Being right in the middle means nothing can go wrong. There are no expectations to be met. No promises can be broken. No disappointment can be felt. No love can be lost.
I live life in the middle for the most part. Personally, I think it’s worked out pretty well, minus being whipped and strung up like a pig for standing up for what I believe in.
Keeping my desires close to my heart saves me, even if what I want suffocates me every day.
Even though I want love, even though I want more, and I don’t want to slide between the legs of a club whore, I’m scared.
What if I’m just like my father? What if what I have isn’t enough, and I’ll want another life, another family? What if his bad blood runs through my veins, and I’m just this piece of shit human being? Maybe I try too hard to be a decent man because inside I know just how rotten I am.
My stomach growls, yanking me out of my pity party. I rub my hands over my face and look at the time. It’s four in the morning. No wonder I’m hungry. I missed dinner, and that means she did too.
I sit up and swing my legs over the bed as I stretch my neck left, then right, getting the cricks out. My boots hit the floor with a soft thud, and I look over my shoulder to make sure I didn’t wake her. Her curly hair looks like a huge cotton ball on the pillow. Her body is covered by the sheet and all I see are those curly coils. I chuckle to myself and fight the urge to reach up and run my fingers through her hair.

REVIEW:MATEO is the first instalment in KL Savage’s contemporary, adult MORETTI: RUTHLESS UNDERWORLD dark, erotic, Mafia romance series-a spin off from the author’s RUTHLESS KINGS MC Las Vegas series. This is forty-three year old, Mafia king/ Las Vegas hotelier and casino owner Mateo Moretti, and twenty-one year old, college student Nora Thompson’s story line. MATEO can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty, but I recommend reading the RUTHLESS KINGS MC-Las Vegas series for back story and cohesion where Mateo’s story begins in book three TOOL.

NOTE: If you have not read the Ruthless Kings MC series, there may be spoilers in my review.

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

Told from dual first person perspectives (Nora and Mateo) MATEO follows the age-gap romance between forty-three year old Mafia king/Las Vegas hotelier and casino owner Mateo Moretti, and twenty-one year old,college student Nora Thompson. Months earlier, Mateo Moretti barely survived an explosion that destroyed his hotel, leaving Mateo in a coma, and his brother Maximo in charge. Fast forward to present day wherein Mateo, having no memories of the past, quickly discovers that the danger and betrayal goes much deeper and personal than he could have ever imagined, forcing Mateo to exact revenge the only way he knows how. When Mateo’s twenty-two year old, daughter Natalia is invited to the twenty-first birthday party of a college friend, Mateo finds himself lusting after the birthday girl, Nora Thompson, and Mateo will stop at nothing to get what he wants. An ‘attack’ against our heroine forces Mateo to take control, and in doing so, immediately takes control of our heroine’s life. What ensues is the quick building romance and relationship between Mateo and Nora, as our couple must come to terms with the own demons from the past, and family members who have destroyed their hearts, and damaged their souls.

Nora Thompson’s life has never been easy but when her friends arrange a party, our heroine struggles to let go in the face of everything that has happened in the past. Meeting hotelier and Mafia head Mateo Moretti stirs something deep and dangerous within our story line heroine, and with it, Nora is about to cross a line from which she will never come back. Mateo Moretti knows betrayal first hand, and in this,he is never one to forgive or forget. Vengeance is but the tip of the proverbial ice-berg when treachery and threats against the people he loves place everyone in the direct line of fire.

The relationship between Mateo and Nora is one of immediate attraction. Mateo finds himself pulled towards his daughter’s twenty-one year old friend, a young woman whose life experiences are both jaded and dark yet often innocent and naive. Having loved and lost, Mateo never expected to find the one, a woman that is able to capture his heart. The $ex scenes are intimate, aggressive, erotic and intense with a little bit of Fifty-Shadesesque lip biting, eye rolling, spanking and control. 😉

The secondary and supporting characters include Mateo’s brother Maximo, as well as several cameo’s from members of the Ruthless Kings MC (Reaper, Tool, Braveheart, Knives). We are introduced to Zio Giovanni; Mateo’s daughter Natalia; Nora’s friends Libby, Faye, Cora and Alice, as well as Nora’s mother Danielle Thompson, and Warden Nicholas Greystone.

MATEO is a story of betrayal and revenge; power and control; family and friendships; lust, love, romance and happily ever after. The fast paced premise is entertaining and engaging but felt a little bit rushed; the romance is hot and heavy; the characters are energetic and captivating. I did have a couple of issues with plot points that were left unresolved -hopefully the author has plans to wrap up those open ended and unanswered scenarios.

NOTE: Excerpt intended for mature reading due to strong language and content

One month after escaping the clubhouse…

I haven’t emerged from my Zio’s home since the escape. I don’t want the Kings to know where I am just yet or what I’ve been up to. Zio has been the face of the casino and taking care of business. I do not need to leave the house to know my face is on wanted posters for the Kings. It was a shit storm, Zio said, when he went to retrieve Natalia. The Kings were not happy. He barely got out of the door without getting shot or beaten.
He had to reassure them the only instruction he received from me was to pick her up. He had to swear to them he had no idea where I was. And they have been keeping a close eye on him.
They are waiting for me to slip, but this isn’t their fight.
“Please,” Maximo begs, clutching the bars of the dungeon Zio keeps underground.
There’s the house level, the basement, and then below that is the dungeon. It hasn’t been used for some time, but better late than never, I always say.
I think. I feel like I used to say that. Feels right.
“Water,” he croaks, reaching through the bars. “Fratello.”
I slam my fist against the bars and scream, “Do not fucking call me that! You lost that privilege when you tried to sell your niece. My fucking daughter. You filthy piece of shit. You think I care if you’re thirsty? Hungry? Or need to take a piss in something other than that fucking bucket in the corner? Let me tell you something, I’m here to watch you wither away, Maximo. You want fucking water?”
I snake my hand through the bars and grab him by his filthy shirt. I yank him forward, his cheek pressed against the iron bars. My lips are close to his ear and I whisper, “Drink your own piss.” I slam his head against the bars and knock him out. He falls to the floor limp and unconscious.
I tug on the lapels of my suit and sigh. I feel the overwhelming need to wash my hands.
I sidestep a puddle as I walk out of the dungeon. It’s your typical dark and gloomy cell. There’s no window, a dirt floor, and the lamps on the ceiling are powered by lighter fluid. Zio did not pour the family fortune into this dirt jail, that’s for certain. I climb up the stairs and grab the string above on the ceiling that controls the single lightbulb and tug.
Darkness.
Good. Let Maximo get lost. I don’t give a fuck.
I make my way through the basement and up the stairs to the main level of the house.
“Hey Papa,” Natalia greets me as she sits on a stool at the kitchen island, sipping her cappuccino she made.

K.L. Savage decided they were tired of looking for the kind of books they wanted to read. They had an itch that needed to be scratched, and as every girl knows, nothing scratches better than an alpha.

They write about gritty, alpha males, sometimes their dark sides, and the women they love.
