They see me as weak.
Just a scared kid.
The moment my big sister took me away from the club, it sealed my fate as a burden.
As the son of a president for the Houston Defiance MC, I was born into power. I’m destined to lead. My father and older brother before me, I should follow in their footsteps. But they don’t see me that way.
The only path to keep me safe is to ship me off.
To live a life they have chosen for me.
Doesn’t matter what I want.
Behind the ivy-covered walls of Stonewall are mysteries, lies, deception.
I want to uncover it all.
The sting of secrets is to be revealed.
One thing I wasn’t counting on was Thayleah, a fellow student who takes my breath away the second I see her.
But she’s tied to another club.
When enemies come in all forms, you need to keep your eyes open.
But I didn’t see this coming!

REVIEW:SECRETIVE is the seventh instalment in the contemporary adult HOUSTON DEFIANCE MC erotic, MC, romance series co-authored by KE Osborn and Addison Jane. This is Koda Walker and Thayleah’s story line. SECRETIVE can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty. Any important information from the previous storylines is revealed where necessary. Koda’s brother Zero, is the president of the Houston Defiance MC.
NOTE: Koda and Thayleah are college age (not yet twenty) but the story line is adult in content.
WARNING: Due to the nature of the story line premise, there may be triggers for more sensitive readers
Told from dual first person perspectives (Koda and Thayleah) following several timelines and memories from the past, SECRETIVE focuses on betrayal and obsession, and the building romance and relationship between Koda Walker and Thayleah. Having met at a college party, Koda finds Thayleah struggling with her demons, and our hero is the only one to get Thayleah under control. Our couple is immediately attracted to one another but all is not well at the prestigious Stonewall College, as a secret group known as the Scorpio Society had set its’ sights on our story line couple. When Koda refuses to join, his friends are threatened, and Koda must come to a decision to protect his classmates and the woman with whom he is falling in love but not before death and destruction follow in their wake. What ensues is the building romance and relationship between Koda and Thayleah, and the potential fall-out as the secret society refuses to let go, and Thayleah is about to pay for sins of the past.
Thayleah has suffered so much in her short time on earth, and the trauma has left our heroine struggling with her day to day life. Meeting Koda Walker eases Thayleah’s demons, demons that are about to resurface when the past demands more from our story line heroine. Koda Walker knows loss having witnessed the murder of his parents. In an effort to protect Koda from the life of the MC, Koda is enrolled in college where everything is about to spiral out of control. Meeting Thayleah gave Koda plans for the future but or hero refuses to back down when Thayleah’s life is threatened, calling in help from the people in the Houston Defiance MC, and the family that Thayleah calls her own.
The relationship between Koda and Thayleah is one of immediate attraction but Thayleah struggles with PTSD. Koda worries about the society, and the barely veiled threats to the lives of his family and friends but no matter the protection, someone is always waiting on the other side. As Koda and Thayleah restart their lives with the Houston Defiance MC, the past returns with a message for our story line couple. The $ex scenes are intimate but limited.
There is a large ensemble cast of colorful and energetic secondary and supporting characters including several members of the Houston Defiance MC. We are quickly introduced to some of Thayleah’s extended family in the Brothers of Blood MC of Phoenix ; Professor Vance Huntington, and his son Brady; Thayleah’s roommate Tinsley, and Koda’s roommate Myles.The requisite evil has many faces.
SECRETIVE is a story of betrayal and vengeance, power and control, secrets and lies, family and friendships, relationships and love. The premise is dark and gritty but does not read like the previous instalments due to the age and circumstance of the story line couple; the characters are captivating ;the romance is passionate. SECRETIVE ends on a cliff hanger-you have been warned.

There is no fighting this strange magnetism that draws us together.
I want to be near him.
But what is it about him?
What is it that has me jogging after him through the library, zig-zagging through shelves and around tables and desks until we finally reach a corner of the library, I’m pretty sure only a certain type of people see—it’s a dead-end—a little nook of shelves hidden so deep you would have to purposely go looking in order to find its location.
Koda holds his arms out with a wide grin. “Welcome to my humble abode.”
