Excerpt:
She was perfection. Every bruise, scar, and bandage paid tribute to her strength and determination. I wanted to become intimately acquainted with each dimple, kiss every freckle, run my tongue across every mole. “You’re fucking gorgeous,” I said, spinning her back around.
Her expression softened. “You’re not bad yourself. I mean, if you’re into those perfect stripper body, probably-works-out-everyday, sexy-as-hell types. Which I am.”
I chuckled and pulled her into my arms again. “Good. Is this okay? I don’t want to hurt you.”
She swallowed. “I don’t want that either.” The desire in her eyes made her desire clear, but the way she chewed on her lip and the slight tremble in her arms told me she was scared.
“What can I do?” I asked. “What do you need from me?”
She looked over our scattered clothes and scooped up my shirt. Turning me around, she used it to tie my hands behind my back.
I flexed, noting how loosely her bonds held me. “I can break out of this,” I said honestly.
She turned me around to face her again, her green eyes pleading. “I know. Don’t.”
My Thoughts <3
Such a good MC read!! I have not read the other books in the Dead Presidents MC, but I sure want to now! Harley Stone writes a book that includes the hard life of an MC but combines it with good and honest men, that is what I freaking love about this subgenre!
To give you backstory if you are like me and have not read the other books in the series, the Dead Presidents MC is made up of veterans that band together to support each other after they have gotten out of the service. These men are good and honorable and have a great moral code while keeping in line with the fact that sometimes to you have to skate the law to get things done.
Tap has been a member of the MC for about a year now but is extremely secretive in the fact that none of his brothers know his true name or even about his family. He keeps the two lives separate in making sure that his family is safe. This works but also causes his brothers in the MC to wonder even more about him. Oh, he is also freaking brilliant and belonged in intelligence in the military.
He wonders upon Sasha, a cop with good intentions but kinda awful execution, when Tap finds her beaten and broken he cannot just leaves her and takes her in. This goes against his entire plan of keeping everything separate but decides that he needs to get involved.
This is a great story about 2 people with hard beliefs and trust issues that can come together and maybe, just maybe, let someone in to help shoulder the burdens. Also it helps that the steam between these two is a slow burn but that does not make it any more powerful and the longing makes it even better!
Great story Harley Stone!!
PS: I received this book as an ARC but am voluntarily and honestly reviewing it!
