ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date May 18, 2019

Who could ever fall in love with a cold-blooded killer like me?

The answer is no one.

That’s why I’m giving up trying to find a woman who wants me for more than one rowdy night. I’m determined to find a wife instead.

If I buy a mail order bride, then she’ll have no choice but to stick around. Besides, I have plenty of money to spend thanks to all the successful Savage Kings MC legal and outlaw enterprises.

Kira’s the perfect woman, and she’s just as eager as I am to tie the knot. I didn’t ask why she needed half a million dollars; and honestly, I didn’t really care.

Maybe I should have.

A few weeks after Kira becomes my wife, I find myself in the middle of her family’s fallout with the Russian mafia.

When I shoot first and ask questions later, I unknowingly drag the entire MC into the crossfire.

Now the Russians are pissed and are out for blood. But they’ve screwed with the wrong man this time.

The Kings will do whatever it takes to protect their own, no matter the consequences.

And now that Kira is mine, I’ll gladly kill anyone who tries to hurt her.

REVIEW: MILES is the eight instalment in the contemporary, adult SAVAGE KINGS MC erotic, MC romance series co-authored by Lane Hart and DB West. This is thirty-four year old, former US Marine sniper and MC member Miles Taylor, and twenty-three year old Kira’ story line. MILES can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty. Any important information from the previous instalments is revealed where necessary. There is a slight cross-over with the author’s OUT OF THE CAGE series.

Told from dual first person perspectives (Kira and Miles) MILES follows the ‘mail-order bride’ in exchange for money between thirty-four year old, former US Marine sniper and MC member Miles Taylor, and twenty-three year old Kira. Miles is lonely, and his desperation for a wife or significant other grows with each new relationship in the Savage Kings MC. Finding an available bride on line brings Miles up close and personal with a twenty three year old woman named Kira, a woman who is desperate to pay down her father’s debt to the Russian Mob. What ensues is the building but fractured relationship between Miles and Kira, and the potential fall-out as the mob targets Miles and the Savage Kings MC.

Miles Taylor battles with sins of the past, and believes no woman will accept the darkness within. Completely oblivious as to the how and what of a long-term relationship, but fiercely protective, Miles struggles as a husband and partner to the woman with whom he will fall in love. Kira only wants to help her struggling parents but a debt owed to the Russian Mob finds our heroine caught between her head and her heart. Never expecting to fall in love, Kira is suddenly thrown into the world of the Savage Kings MC when the mob demands more than her father can afford.

The relationship between Kira and Miles is one of immediate attraction but a relationship based upon desperation and lust. Miles has no idea how to be a husband or provider; Kira struggles with the possibility of a loveless marriage to a man she doesn’t know. Their lack of communication and misunderstanding is inevitable and heart breaking. The $ex scenes are intimate, erotic and intense.

There is a large ensemble cast of colorful secondary and supporting characters including many of the previous storyline couples. We are introduced to Kira’s parents: and Ivan (Out of the Cage #2), head of the East Coast Irish and Italian mafia.

MILES is a story of family and blood; of desperation and vengeance; of loneliness and longing. The premise is energetic; the characters are dynamic ; the romance is spicy and spirited. MILES is dramatic and passionate story in the Savage Kings MC series.
