ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date April 19, 2024

I’ve got one month to convince her to be my wife . . .

Until I laid eyes on Sophie, I never planned on marriage. All that changed after our hot night together in Vegas. Now she regrets our impulsive Vegas wedding and is demanding a divorce. But I’m not signing the papers. Hell no! I’ll give up every single one of my womanizing ways for a woman like her.

Sophie thinks I’m only infatuated with her looks, except I see how everyone underestimates her. I’m not intimidated by her wealth, her modeling career, and the trail of broken hearts she leaves behind her. What we have is different.

I’ve lived my whole life unable to feel anything thanks to my rough childhood, but for Sophie, I’ll risk everything. Her rich father and the jealous women in my club aren’t going to stand in my way. If she wants a divorce, she’ll have to spend one month with me at the War Brothers clubhouse. Sleeping in my bed.

Then we’ll see if she still refuses to say I do . . .

REVIEW: VIPER is the fourth instalment in Bianca Lee Ward’s contemporary, adult WAR BROTHERS MC erotic, MC romance series whose members are former military personnel. This is Brayden ‘Viper’ Young, and businesswoman Sophie Crown. VIPER can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty. Any important information from the previous story lines is revealed where necessary.

Told from dual first person perspectives (Sophie and Viper) VIPER follows in the wake of the unplanned Vegas wedding between our story line couple. Sophie Crown is a savvy business woman but never expected to find herself married to a member of the War Brothers MC. A drunken one-night stand results in a drunk Vegas wedding, a one-month promise, and a billionaire father who will do anything to protect his only daughter. What ensues is the building relationship between Sophie and Viper, and the potential fall-out as Sophie is targeted, and her father is threatening to destroy the War Brothers MC.

The relationship between Viper and Sophie begins as a one-night stand that ends in marriage and a runaway bride. Viper is desperate to give his marriage a chance but Sophie’s father is determined to tear them apart. As Viper and Sophie begin a one-month experiment together, someone else works behind the scenes to destroy them both. The $ex scenes are intimate and provocative without the use of over the top, sexually graphic language and text.

We are reintroduced to most of the members of the War Brothers MC including president Reaper and Ava, Bomber and Zara, and Axle as well as Sophie’s brothers Lawson, Harrison and Alec, and their father.

VIPER is a story of power and control, betrayal and vengeance, jealousy and obsession, family and relationships, acceptance and love. The premise is captivating and fascinating; the romance is passionate; the characters are desperate, determined and dynamic.

AXLE
(War Brothers MC 1)
by Bianca Lee Ward
Genre: adult, contemporary, erotic, MC, romance

ebook only 99¢ Amazon.com / Amazon.ca / Amazon.uk / Amazon.au /

ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date October 29, 2024

She’s a wager, a game…
I’ll pretend she’s mine, such a pretty little lie.

I’m exactly the type of guy Elena should stay away from. Sweet, innocent women like her don’t look for relationships in motorcycle clubs. Especially one as classy and out of my league as Elena.

I can’t resist swiping right on her dating profile for fun. I never imagined we’d be a match. I know I’d only be a quick thrill for her, but I’m getting tired of the women at the clubhouse anyway.

Then my club brother Viper goes and ups the stakes: he bets me one thousand dollars that I won’t be able to have a relationship with Elena. With my wicked smile and flirty charm, she won’t be able to resist me. And like my other hookups, I can’t let it get personal.

Until I let my guard down and she becomes my ride or die.
Which means I’ve got to make sure as hell that Elena never finds out about our bet

REVIEW:AXLE is the first instalment in Bianca Lee Ward’s contemporary, adult WAR BROTHERS MC erotic, MC romance series. This is Jake ‘Axle’ Evans, and Elena’s story line.

NOTE:Although Axle is the first book in the series, all of the books (so far) have been released out of order, and therefore some of the situations and characters are already known.

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

Told from dual first person perspectives (Elena and Axle) AXLE follows the building relationship between our story line couple. Elena is new in Crown Village, having ‘escaped’ her judgemental family back home but having met her new roommates, Elena begins to question her decision including working at the local seafood restaurant, and the boss who is questionable at best. When a fellow employee sets Elena up on a dating app, our heroine never expected to come face to face with a member of the War Brothers MC, the man with whom Elena will fall in love but all is not as it appears to be, and Elena will discover she is a pawn in a bet between members of the War Brothers MC.

The world building focuses on the building romance and relationship between our story line couple, as well as Elena’s unsettling boss, the problematic women of the War Brothers MC; our heroine’s battle to break free from the past, and Elena’s struggle with Axle’s life as a member of the MC.

The relationship between Elena and Axle begins as a dating app match, a match in which Axle is manipulating their ‘affair’. Elena is naïve to the MC lifestyle, and in this, she is gullible to the comments and rhetoric, as well as the manipulation of her roommates and fellow employees. As Axle continues his ‘seduction’ of our story line heroine, Elena begins to fall for a man who may not be as honest as she thought. The $ex scenes are intimate and passionate without the use of over the top,sexually graphic language and text.

The secondary and supporting characters include Elena’s numerous roommates and their ever present friends; her questionable boss Cameron, and co-worker Mel. We are (re) introduced to several members of the War Brothers MC including Reaper (Ava), Viper, Demon, Bomber, and Twitch.

AXLE is a story of secrets and lies, betrayal and heart break, family and relationships, forgiveness and love. The fast paced premise is engaging and edgy ; the characters are animated and sensitive; the romance is flawed and spirited.

She’s not my type.
Lila is all about looks and money.
I only care about my bike and my brothers.
But after a fire breaks out and she plays hero,
I wonder if there’s more than meets the eye.
She thinks I’m just some muscle.
I think she’s hot AF.
A little tryst between coworkers never hurt.
Right?
Wrong.

•••••••

REVIEW:VIPER is the fourth instalment in Savannah Rylan’s contemporary, adult STEEL SCORPIONS erotic, MC, romance series focusing on the Steel Scorpions MC. This is Viper and Lila Foster’s story line. VIPER can be read as a stand alone but for back story and cohesion I recommend reading the series in order as there is an ongoing premise throughout.

SOME BACKGROUND: Several months earlier the Steel Scorpions broke up a human trafficking ring run the Devil’s Rage MC, and in the ensuing months a battle for territory has seen most of the Steel Scorpions’ bars and night clubs burned to the ground.

Told from dual first person perspectives (Viper and Lila) VIPER follows in the wake of a number of fires that have destroyed the Steel Scorpions businesses and clubs. With the Tease night club burned to the ground, burlesque dancer Lila Foster begins working at Twisted, the lone surviving club owned by the Steel Scorpions MC but all is not well as the Steel Scorpions continue to be targeted by an unknown assailant, and Lila’s past is about to come full circle. What ensues is the forbidden relationship between Lila and Viper, and the potential fall-out as Lila’s past ensures she never walks away, again.

Lila Foster has a stalker. Our heroine is on the run but her past is very powerful and always has a way of uncovering her whereabouts. Landing in the small town of Twin Bays, Lila knows it is only a matter of time before her stalker discovers where she now lives. Viper knows that to enter into a relationship with Lila means to cross a line drawn in the proverbial sand but Viper has fallen for our story line heroine, a fall that places himself and the MC in the direct line of fire.

The relationship between Viper and Lila is one of immediate attraction but Viper has been warned to stay clear of the dancers. The heart wants something it cannot have, and when Lila’s past demands her return, Viper becomes protector and guardian of the woman with whom he has fallen in love. The $ex scenes are intimate and provocative.

We are reintroduced to the Steel Scorpions MC: Bender, Angel, Goose, Reaper and Fangs, as well as several prospects and Lila’s fellow dancers, and Lila’s stalker Wesley Abbott. Reaper’s story line is next.

VIPER is a story of obsession and infatuation, power and money, betrayal and vengeance, love and control. The fast paced premise is captivating, and entertaining the romance is erotic and intense; the characters are numerous, energetic, charismatic and determined. VIPER ends on a bit of a cliff hanger-the conflict has yet to be resolved.

NOTE: Excerpt intended for mature readers due to content and language

 

“Thanks for bringing me home,” she said as she gripped her dressing room bag.

I slid my hands into my jean pockets to keep from reaching out for her. “Like I said, it’s my job.”

Her gaze raked down my body as she opened the door. “Uh huh.”

Jesus Christ, how I wanted to kiss her. I wanted to blanket her mouth with mine and back her into that apartment before I closed the door with her back. But I forced myself to stay put. She had almost been abducted by some crazy-ass drunk back at the bar. The last thing she needed was yet another man groping her body as if he felt entitled to it.

Besides, she worked for the club.

And Fangs would kill me if I became involved with any woman that worked for us.

“Well, you have a good night,” I said as I took a step backward.

She tilted her head. “Goodnight, Viper.”

I nodded. “Yeah, good night.”

“Night.”

I waved at her as I backtracked toward the stairs. “Night.”

She giggled. “You already said that.”

I winked. “So did you.”

Then, as she closed the door, I heard her flip the lock behind it, which made me feel comfortable about going down to my bike and leaving her for the night.

Even though I had to stuff my hand down my pants and rearrange my cock just so I could get on my bike and head home myself.

VIPER: A Vampire Romance (Vampires of Hollywood #1) by Madisyn Ashmore-a review

Viper

ebook only 99¢ Amazon.com / Amazon.ca / B&N / KOBO /

ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date January 26, 2017

What turns me on? YOU.

Caleb Crane is a ripped and protective vampire who knows exactly what he wants. And what he wants is the sexy young lawyer, Abby March, who just showed up in Hollywood.

And then something shocking emerges from Abby’s past that changes everything. A secret so dark, she can’t hide from it or run away any longer. Will Caleb stay and fight for Abby, or will her shocking secret ruin everything?

Compulsively readable, Viper is a passionate, enthralling vampire romance and a must-read for paranormal fiction fans.

This is Book One in the Vampires of Hollywood series, and it’s also a great standalone alpha male romance with a HEA, No Cheating, and No Cliffhanger. This story is steamy, spicy, sexy, and hot. You’ve been warned.

••••••••••••

REVIEW: VIPER is the first installment in Madisyn Ashmore’s contemporary, adult VAMPIRES OF HOLLYWOOD erotic, paranormal romance series. This is Hollywood director Caleb Crane, and lawyer Abby March’s story line.

Told from first person point of view (Abby) VIPER focuses on the building relationship between Hollywood director and vampire Caleb Crane, and lawyer Abby March. Abby is a new lawyer struggling to find employment in the cut-throat city of Hollywood, California. Living with her best friend and movie star Natalie allows Abby the time to search for the perfect job. But meeting Natalie’s neighbor, the infamous and sexy Caleb Crane, throws all of Abby’s good senses out the door. When Caleb offers Abby the position of his new legal advisor Abby will soon learn there is something different about the man with whom she will fall in love. What ensues is the building relationship between human and vampire, and Caleb’s need to protect Abby from a potential threat from her past.

The attraction between Abby and Caleb is immediate but Abby knows there is something different about Caleb Crane. Our heroine is aware that vampires exist, and she suspects the man with whom she is falling in love may be the one of the creatures of the night. Caleb is a vampire who struggles to keep hidden his attraction to his new employee but there is something about Abby that lures Caleb to the woman that calls to his heart. When Abby’s life is threated, Caleb knows that the only way to keep her safe is to bring her to the ‘dark side’. The $ex scenes are intimate, erotic and intense without the use of sexually graphic, over the top language and text.

Throughout the story Caleb tends to keep secret much of his past and in this I struggled because we learn very little about the man who is the focus on the story. I was hoping to learn a little bit more about the man in question.

We are introduced to Abby’s best friend and roommate Natalie-a super star in Hollywood, and a woman whose romantic interest is a man not unlike our story line hero. Ansel Walker is an actor whose previous relationship with Natalie was destroyed by alcohol and drugs. There are a number of secondary and supporting characters including the beautiful Sophie Richards, Caleb’s housekeep Emiko, and the Queen of the vampires Reina. The requisite evil comes from another supernatural creature-the Lycan-who are out to destroy the vampires and all they hold dear.

VIPER is a vampire story with some similarities to Twilight including the relationship between Abby and Caleb that cannot be ignored. The premise is entertaining and spicy; the characters are familiar but colorful; the romance is fated and passionate. VIPER is a provocative and sexy look at vampires, romance and the Hollywood machine.
