Hung (Selected Sinners MC #4) by Scott Hildreth - @ScottDHildreth

I have to admit I always get a little nervous before starting a book in this series.  I worry if my limits will be pushed to something that I'm going to hate or not be able to handle.  But then I start the story and these men - just totally make me fall for who they are, even if it always isn't perfect and pretty.  Because with these guys, it's not.  They are crass, and they are in your face, they are criminals, but good citizens .  They are manwhores when they are not in a relationship, but ultimately if you're the girl for them, they are faithful, and they will always have your back and take care of you.

Biscuit just made me laugh and smile.  His stories were ones I'm sure most of us don't hear in our lifetime.  They definitely  were one of a kind, and you could actually "hear" him telling them to you.  The funny thing with Biscuit though - you know how there are some guys out there who think they are "God's gift to women"??? Well, Biscuit truly thought - with his "special talents and physical attributes" that God truly did put him on this earth to please women.  Now how can you not love a guy willing to do what God wants, right?!?!?  And he was working his way through pleasing as many women as he could.

Kat only wanted a "bad-boy", mainly I think to stick it to her cop father.  And, even though she had a bad experience with one in her past, it did not deter her from looking for another one.  So when she met Biscuit, she was game for whatever he was offering - even if it was just a good time and nothing serious.  Personally, I don't think I would have passed him up with his skills and attribute either though!

I liked Kat and Biscuit together.  Their personalities complimented each other so well,  and surprisingly to both of them, they start to really have feelings for each other, which they kind of discovered together at about the same time.  I wanted them to figure out they were good for each other.  The only problem that upset me was that Kat made a bad decision, which I wanted to punch her for.  I hated her for it, and wanted to shake her and tell her to fix it - but she had to learn in her own way - no matter how difficult, and I mostly summed up her choices to her being only 23, and slightly immature.  But with everything going on, Biscuit truly showed the kind of man he was deep down - taking care of Kat in more ways than one.

This is definitely one of my favorite MC Series.  I love these "Selected Sinners" or

"Angels in Selected Sinners cuts is more like it."

"Protective Angels."

Their stories are crazy and amazing, and who they are deep down is so much more than you get from their outside appearance.  I can't wait for more!

Ride Steady (Chaos #3) by Kristen Ashley

Tatum Jackson will always be my "#1 KA Alpha Male" - but let me just say that Joker 

has moved up the the #2 spot on my list and bumped Joe Callahan down to #3. 

I don't know how to even begin starting to explain the pure perfection that is Joker, 

you'll just have to   trust me on this one.

I really struggle with reviews for any KA books - because to me, there's no words to describe how much I love them all - every part of them, from the story line, to the location, the songs, the clothing, and each and every character.  So I thought of a crazy comparison - food:

 Most of the books I read are really like a good meal out - leaves you satisfied, glad for what you ate - maybe a really good burger and fries.  Then others books are more like a better meal - sit down, dress up a little, maybe get an appetizer and share a dessert.  Those meals don't come as often, but they are looked forward to and enjoyed immensely.  Then there are KA books that I have to compare to those meals where you get the WHOLE experience.  I'm talking dressed up, you're getting a drinks, salad, appetizers, sorbet in between to  cleanse your palate, you're getting all the food groups, cooked by the best chefs, and having the best dessert at the end to wrap it all up.  You're getting the full experience, pure bliss,  leaving nothing out - and to me that's what this book, and every KA book I've read has been like.  I savor it, never want it to end - but thoroughly enjoy the entire experience - and sometimes I even go back for seconds.

So do I recommend you read this book? - Hell Yeah!!! 

Until July (Until Her #1) by Aurora Rose Reynolds

To me,  the Mayson family can do no wrong.  I loved the parents story, and now thankfully, we get their kids stories.  July was a great way to start this new generation series.

  Not only do we get all the Mayson craziness, but we get a sexy biker with Wes Silver.  Their meeting was classic - one to tell the grandchildren for sure.  He was so perfect for July.  He could totally handle her and her family - winning them both over easily.

  If you are a fan of Aurora's Until series - then you will not be disappointed with this book - and the best part is, there are a lot of more Mayson's to be written about!

Taking the Heat (Selected Sinners MC #2) by Scott Hildreth - @ScottDHildreth

Damn, with the way this book started out - I was wondering where the heck it was going to go.  That was one sex scene I had never read before!  You may start off the book not really caring for Toad, actually I'm pretty sure of it - but that will be short lived.  You will grow to love the man that he truly is, deep down - the true giver and compassionate man that he is.

Then you will meet Sidney and totally admire her ability to persevere through what she's been dealt with in life.  She doesn't pity herself, and circumstances or expect handouts.  Nope, she works for what she has, makes the best of all of it - and in the process makes others around her be better.

Toad and Sidney, both broken people, are beautiful together - perfectly matched, and watching their relationship grow, felt believable and not rushed.

I'm so in love with this series.  I just enjoy all the main and secondary characters in the story - they have so much personality and even if they have small roles, they have a great impact.  But, I think the main reason for my enjoyment of this series is mostly due to Scott's ability to make you feel and think with his writing.  The words of inspiration he writes and weaves into the story - that will somehow pertain and reflect in your own life and circumstances, always leave me thinking and feeling.  I'm totally hooked.

Making the Cut (Selected Sinners MC #1) by S.D. Hildreth - @ScottDHildreth

I'm not sure where to begin.  This really isn't your typical MC story, yet it was.  There was some gritty biker business taken care of.  There was some big, bad, rough, mean, sexy bikers.  There was also romance, but not what you would expect.  There was no insta-love, no wham-bamm, and thankfully, no club whores - but there was the building of a relationship over time.  There was...progress.

I loved just about everything with Avery and yes, Axton.  Avery was who she was, and even though she was a little insecure - she knew what she wanted, knew how to get it - and stuck with her plan to get there.  I loved her moments of insight and internal conversations with herself, and I enjoyed her sense of humor.  She was persistent, strong, and yes, even cute.  Even with her chances being "slim to none", she persevered.  

The best part about Axton, was how he was with Avery.  That he never expected a relationship from her, but just took his time with her, yet never led her on.  She came from out of nowhere, and into his life, and ended up being someone who became and integral part of world.  Don't get me wrong though, he wasn't changing for her, he's not "flowers and cards" - he's just exactly who he puts out there - he's a biker through and through, that comes first.  He's a lot rough and doesn't put up with shit - take it or leave it, and trust me - you will take it!

This is the third Scott Hildreth book I've read, and each one has been drastically different from the others.  And even though they are all different, the common element is that each story has grabbed hold of me, and totally kept me wrapped up in the book, not wanting to get up until the story is finished.  Each books characters are so complex, yet easy to know and like.  You feel like you know their actual personalities, get how they talk -as if you can hear them saying the words in the book to you.  You can really picture them, their stance, their walk.  And even more, the characters somehow give you some insight-some statement made from something happening in the story, that makes you think and consider things differently.  As with Finding Parker and Karter, I totally loved Making the Cut and cannot wait until the next book comes out.  Give one of these books a chance, I don't think you'll be disappointed.

Reaper's Stand (Reapers MC #4) by Joanna Wylde - @joannawylde

If you've been reading this series, then I'm sure like me, you have been anticipating Reese/Picnic and London's story - and they sure did not disappoint!  This is one of my favorite MC stories - it has enough "grit" to make it real, and not go too overboard - and even though the guys may be "man-whores" when they start out, once that one girl becomes "theirs" - that's it for them.  They have and "old lady" in the making.  But for Reese it was harder to make that decision, because he had an "old lady" once, and swore after she died, that was it for him.

London is running her own cleaning business and taking care of her niece.  It's been tough, and money tight, but her business has been picking up, especially with cleaning some of the Reaper's properties.  She's noticed Reese a few times while she's been working, and can't help but notice how sexy he really is - although she imagines he can get any woman.  She isn't alone in her infatuation - Reese has definitely noticed London too, but she is not his type at all - she has no clue at all about his world, and he doesn't want to even go there - he's not looking for anything long term.

Then circumstances bring them together on a few "awkward" occasions - where London really sees the "man-whore" that Picnic is.  I have to say there were a few "cringe" worthy moments, that I would have personally died on the spot if I were London - but she handled them with class.  After an unexpected kiss - either of them can get each other out of their minds.  This is where it all get tricky and things get complicated - and this is where the story really picks up - and it becomes obvious of the feelings that Reese really has for London, with the way he helps her out.

 I loved all the twists and turns with Reese and London's relationship - because once they got together - things were hot and happening fast.  The only problem was that London needed to actually trust Reese and go to him for help - which she didn't do, and which ended up putting her in a dangerous position with the club and Reese.  With the choices she made, Reese's options with how to handle her were becoming limited.  I was wringing my hands, wondering what would happen - and how everything would play out and come together.  From about the last 25% of the book, I couldn't put it down!

Joanna Wylde has nailed it with this great biker-MC series - and I always look forward to the next in the series!
