ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date June 27,2024

“Ollie, I’m afraid I’m going to have to ask you not to scream.”

HER

We met by chance at a random dive bar.
Him – a striking figure in a tailored suit who radiates dominance.
Me – an awkward introvert, innocently stalking my father.

He seduced me.
Worshipped me.
Then, in a blink, he vanished, leaving no trace—not even a name or number.

HIM

I wasn’t supposed to see her again.
We were never meant to meet in the first place.
But here we are:
Her – half asleep after passing out at work.
Me – caught sneaking into her family business in the middle of the night.

She has no clue who I am—that I’ve just settled into a ruthless birthright position within the Italian mafia. Or that her family legacy plays a role in my illegal activities. But I have a feeling the dead body at my feet might bring her up to speed.

REVIEW: REMY by Eden Summers is a contemporary, adult, dark, Mafia romance story line and the tenth book in the author’s HUNTING HER world. This is Remington ‘Remy’ Costa, and Olivia ‘Ollie’ Pelosi’s story line. REMY can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty. Any important information from the previous story lines is revealed where necessary. Remy is Abri’s brother (BISHOP #9).

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

Told from dual first person perspectives (Remy and Ollie) REMY follows in the aftermath of something Olivia Pelosi was never meant to see. Olivia aka Ollie works for her father’s funeral home, doing the make-up for the recently deceased but a late night at work ended with Olivia coming face to face with her future, in the guise of  Mafia man Remy Costa, the man with whom Olivia would fall in love. Remy’s appearance at the funeral home meant something else was going on, and another interruption revealed the truth when Olivia confronted her father about the who, how and why. As Remy’s late night excursions to the funeral home were becoming more frequent, Olivia would find herself caught up with the Mafia, and the darker side of the criminal underworld. What ensues is the building but tempestuous relationship between Ollie and Remy, and the potential fall-out as the man in charge threatens to permanently push Olivia out of Remy’s life.

The world building follows several intersecting paths. The Costa family is currently at war with the Mexican cartel, and Remy has declared himself the ultimate cleaner, involving the Pelosi family at the heart of their funeral business. Not only has the Mexican cartel taken aim, but the Irish Mob is not targeting our story line hero.

The relationship between Ollie and Remy begins acrimoniously when Ollie discovers the truth about Remy’s late night visits to the funeral home, visits that threaten the business if the truth is revealed. Needing to keep an eye on Ollie, as well as protecting the woman with whom he will fall in love, Remy finds himself guardian and protector of the woman who could destroy it all. The $ex scenes are intimate and passionate without the use of over the top, sexually graphic language and text.

Bishop and Remy’s sister Abri return for a cameo appearance as well as his brothers Matthew & Layla Langston (Seeking Vengeance / Ruthless Redemption/Hunting Her 7 & 8), Salvatore, and uncle Lorenzo. We are introduced to Olivia’s father Carlo Pelosi, and her co-workers/friends Ivy and Skylar. The requisite evil has many faces.

REMY is a story of power and control, betrayal and vengeance, secrets and lies, family and relationships, forgiveness, acceptance, loss and love. The premise is dramatic and intriguing; the romance is seductive; the characters are determined and dynamic.

ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date September 6, 2022

After two confidential informants are murdered by a drug lord the DEA has spent months trying to bust, agent Avery Carmichael is ordered to go undercover.

She’s going to need some help infiltrating the outlaw world, which is where the hottest, most infuriating man she’s ever met comes in.

Remy Fulton is the president of the newest Savage Kings MC chapter in Rockland, Virginia. When his younger brother RJ gets into legal trouble, he reluctantly agrees to help the prissy snob with her undercover operation to keep RJ out of prison.

Pretending to be the biker’s latest conquest may prove much more difficult than Avery anticipated. From the moment they meet, Remy argues with her over every little thing. He’s especially furious with her when he finds out she’ll be staying with him for weeks, sharing his home and his entire life.

Their friends and family can’t find out their relationship is fake because blowing their cover could inevitably put Avery’s life in danger.

It’s no secret that the two don’t initially trust or respect each other. But once they’re forced to improvise a few times under pressure, they become more comfortable playing the part of an infatuated couple.

The agent and biker ultimately get so good at being together that even they forget that they’re only supposed to be pretending as they attempt to set up the deal to take down a homicidal drug dealer.

Avery can’t seem to recall why she despised Remy in the first place since he’s proven to be a kind, caring man who would literally do anything to protect his family.

And while Remy didn’t want to spend a second with Avery at the beginning of the undercover operation, he suddenly doesn’t know how he’s ever going to let her go.

REVIEW: REMY by Lane Hart and DB West is the first instalment in the contemporary, adult SAVAGE KINGS MC: VIRGINIA erotic, MC romance series -a spin off from the authors’ SAVAGE KINGS SOUTH CAROLINA MC series. This is twenty-nine year old, Club president Remington ‘Remy’ Fulton, and thirty-one year old, DEA Agent Avery Carmichael’s story line.

Told from dual first person perspectives (Remy and Avery) REMY follows the building but acrimonious relationship between twenty-nine year old, Club president Remington ‘Remy’ Fulton, and thirty-one year old, DEA Agent Avery Carmichael. Two confidential informants were murdered by drug lord Thomas ‘Tank’ Sullivan, and DEA Agent Avery Carmichael has been tasked with taking him down. Working undercover with the president of the Savage Kings MC meant pretending to be the girlfriend of a man who wants nothing to do with our story line heroine but Remy Fulton’s brother is looking at hard time, and the DEA has called in a favor from the Savage Kings MC. Remaining undercover is difficult at best when Remy and Avery have been told to keep the assignment a secret when their relationship comes under the scrutiny of Remington’s brothers. What ensues is the building romance and relationship between Avery and Remy, and the potential fall-out as Avery’s time with Remy comes to a close.

Avery Carmichael has never worked undercover, and her first assignment involves the Savage Kings MC. Remy is a sexy, built MC President who wants nothing to do with our story line heroine but Remy will see green when our heroine catches the eye of everyone else. To get involved with Remy could mean the end of her DEA career, a career Avery is willing to risk if it means losing her heart to our story line hero.

The relationship between Remy and Avery begins as an assignment in which neither one is happy about their future arrangement. To make their relationship believable, Avery must move in with our story line hero,a move that places one another in each other’s radar. The $ex scenes are intimate, erotic and passionate without the use of over the top, sexually graphic language and text.

We are introduced to Remy’s brothers: Colt, RJ and Barrett aka Bear, as well as their father; Avery’s father Michael, several members of the DEA, Savage Kings MC both Virginia and South Carolina, and drug lord Tank Sullivan.

REMY is a story of family and relationships, secrets and acceptance, temptation and struggle, friendships and love. The fast paced premise is entertaining and dramatic; the romance is seductive; the characters are charismatic and dynamic.

ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date November 26, 2013

Underground fighter Remington Tate is a mystery, even to himself. His mind is dark and light, complex and enlightening. At times his actions and moods are carefully measured, and at others, they spin out of control.

Through it all, there’s been one constant: wanting, needing, loving, and protecting Brooke Dumas. This is his story; from the first moment he laid eyes on her and knew, without a doubt, she would be the realest thing he’s ever had to fight for.

••••••••••••••••••••

REVIEW: REMY is the third instalment in Katy Evans contemporary, new adult Real series focusing on underground fighter Remington Tate and Brooke Dumas-the woman that he loves. REMY is a storyline that parallels the time line of both REAL (#1) and MINE (#2). It is told in flashbacks from Remington’s POV and some present day leading up to Remy and Brooke’s wedding.

The premise is identical to the previous two instalments but we are pulled into a darker world of one man’s obsession with the woman that he loves. Remy suffers with bi-polar disorder and the emotional fall out that affects everyone in his life. Refusing to be medicated, Remy suffers ‘black periods’ where he loses all concept of time and what is happening. REMY follows our hero through his tumultuous battle with the disease, his friends and himself.  Remy’s fears of losing Brooke consume his every thought and in this the reader is pulled onto a roller coaster ride of epic proportion.

Katy’s style of writing is pervasive through the storyline-her use of similar phrases and expressions is seen throughout the entire series; Remy’s need for Brooke; the continuous references to scent, smell and taste; as well as Remy’s dysfunctional jealousy and possession of the woman he loves; and the repetition of mine, Mine, MINE. Remy is a psychiatrist’s nightmare and yet he is unwilling to be medicated because it affects his emotional and physical stability.

There are few things in the series that are questionable and unbelievable including the degree to which Remy refuses help or medication for a disorder that controls and affects every aspect of his life. The character is a danger to himself and to others but the solution proposed (in Mine #2) is not necessarily the best choice-in fact, it is only used as a last resort. But saying that, it is after all, a fictional storyline, with fictional characters in a fictional world and who are we to question when the series is presented as entertainment for the enjoyment of the author’s readers and fans.
