Nash Holland is a paramedic who lives for helping people. He’s never once been on the wrong side of the law. When he gets a call to a motorcycle club, he’s apprehensive, but then he meets a biker that makes his knees go weak. He never expected to find love in an outlaw biker, but he can’t deny the way Zayne makes him feel. Dating a biker with Nash’s profession isn’t a great idea but he’s been playing it safe all his life and maybe Zayne is just the right kind of danger for him.

Zayne ‘Saint’ Lewis isn’t your average biker; he’s the road captain of the Salvation Kings MC and he’s not afraid to do what’s necessary to protect his club. He’s a one-percenter but he’s dedicated his life to helping people in need. He’s hesitant to bring Nash into his club life, unsure if Nash will be able to handle it. One thing he’s sure of, though, is the way Nash makes him feel.

Will the secrets and dangers of Zayne’s life jeopardize their relationship? With a war brewing between his and a rival club, can Zayne keep Nash safe?

My Rating - 5 Stars!

I didn't know what to expect upon starting Saint, the first book in Ana Night's Salvation Kings series. What I found was an amazing book that immediately sucked me in and was a pure delight.

Emotional and inspirational, there are many moments that tugged at my heartstrings. This is a wonderful reminder that not all stereotypes hold up to be true. The Salvation Kings are around to actually help people. Yes, they may have to do some bad things, but it's always for the better good. 

An interesting conflict arises when Saint falls for Nash, a paramedic. Not only does Saint struggle with bringing Nash around the club, but Nash struggles with Saint being a part of the club. As a paramedic, his role is to help people, never to hurt them. 

Saint's an absolutely riveting book. This is my first time reading an Ana Night book, and I am thrilled. I can't wait to read the next book.

Warning: This book contains a scene of mild assault and battery.
Most of his young life, Morgan Wentworth has dreamed of becoming a principal dancer in a prestigious corps de ballet. After years studying the art in Milan, Morgan comes home to New York City to apprentice with the Manhattan Ballet Company only to be hit by the unexpected death of his older brother, Jake. The grieving dancer learns his life is threatened by a dangerous rival motorcycle gang and that pierced, tattooed, HOT biker Zeke Ivers has been assigned by Jake’s MC to guard him. Saddled with the constant presence of the infuriating man, Morgan juggles the demands of an exhausting dance schedule as well as his new responsibilities as CEO of his family’s multi-million-dollar company. He never expects to develop an attraction for the straight, obnoxious biker, but that’s exactly what happens.
Estranged from an abusive family, Zeke Ivers has lived at the Sentinel’s club house and worked on cars since he was a teen. When fellow club member Jake Wentworth and a rival club president’s girl are killed on Jake’s bike, the Sentinel’s president delegates the protection of Jake’s little brother, Morgan, to Zeke. Zeke would do anything for the club that pulled him off the streets, but Morgan’s a ballet dancer, for Christ’s sake, as well as annoying as hell. Still, Zeke finds himself inexplicably drawn to the young man. The more attracted Zeke becomes to Morgan, the more the biker is forced to examine his sexuality and decide whether two people from opposite sides of the tracks could possibly have a future together, or if Zeke should do what is fast becoming too painful to consider: let Morgan go.

My Rating - 5 Stars!

In my attempts to read new-to-me GRL Authors, I finally read The Ballerino and the Biker. This Rebecca James gem has been sitting in my kindle for a while. Now I am left wondering why the heck I waited so long.

I adore this book! Morgan and Zeke meet when Zeke tries to kidnap Morgan, all in the means of protecting him. It’s a fun and entertaining meet. I love how Morgan reacts to this large stranger.

Morgan is just adorable. He’s had a tough life, is alone after losing his parents and brother, and now he’s in danger. With Zeke protecting him, the emotions run high. There are some extremely tough scenes, where he breaks down, and you can feel his pain jumping off the page.

And Zeke. I love Zeke. It’s sweet the way he handles Morgan, and even better when he starts to realize the chemistry between him and Morgan.

They have some things they’ll need to deal with before they can be together though, including family issues, a homophobic father, the gang after Morgan, and a crazy stalker.

I am thrilled to have finally read this fantastic story. Now I’m on to book 2 in this Rebecca James series!

I've always loved to write and have written since I was a child, usually to entertain my family. I enjoy writing m/m romance because there's nothing hotter than two men in a loving relationship. I write contemporary romance but am not limited to that. I enjoy writing alpha/omega and vampire stories, and I wouldn't rule other things out. I'm very prolific, so look for a lot of things to come!

My Rating - 5 stars!

Everything He Wants is the second book in the Men of Wesley Lake series by Sarah Hadley Brook.

Marc had been floating from guy to guy until he sees his best friend fall in love. After that, he decided to look for Mr Right.  Then he meets Aidan Wright and the heat between them is instant!

Everything between them happens so fast. The day the meet, they spend all of their time together, just feeling this instant connection. Then they discover that they are perfect together in bed. Marc loves being submissive, and Aidan is more than willing to be his daddy in the bedroom. 

I seriously love these two guys. Marc is small in stature and has always been insecure about his size. And he finds his definition of perfection in Aidan, who is big and muscular. He feels safe with Aidan, and thrilled to be able to explore his daddy kink with him. 

One of the sweetest parts of the book is Aidan talking about Marc, saying '"It was like this beautiful, tender-hearted, smart, funny, amazing man had dropped from the sky."" 

Everything He Wants is the first book I have read by Sarah Hadley Brook. I am charmed by this sweet, easy story.  It is a fun, low-angst romance. I will be definitely be reading more from Sarah, including the first book in this series - A Love to Remember.
