BLURB:

One way or another, all men pay for their crimes. Some do their time locked in a cage, while others meet their due karma without a judge or a jury. My debt to society is almost paid, and soon I'll be free to get my son the justice he deserves. Justice he wouldn't be due if only I had done my job as his father and protected him.

There's just one hitch, and her name is Charlotte.

The gorgeous and completely inexperienced paralegal's mission seems to be making me a law-abiding citizen and not a vengeful son of a bitch. But underneath her prim and proper facade, there is a woman begging to be unleashed. If I wasn't so hellbent on breaking the chains of pain bound to my boy, I'd be tempted to unravel Charlotte and show her what it's like to ditch the law and walk on the wild side. And there's no time for me to succumb to her efforts to make me a decent man. I've agreed to prospect for the Satan's Knights MC, and my pretty little paralegal is about to learn there ain't nothing noble about a man who sells his soul to the Devil in the name of revenge.

*Editorial note: Breaking The Chains is the second book in the Satan's Knights Prospect Trilogy. Fan's of Janine's Blackout Duet will immediately recognize Bishop, but all readers can enjoy this novel as a steamy, suspenseful standalone.*

My review:

**4 stars**

I'm an absolute sucker for books that involve kids and this one just about did me in! 

First an foremost, I loved the way Bishop was portrayed. His character had real flaws and didn't shy away from them. He embraced them and let it be known that he acknowledged them while also trying to make himself better. I like that he struggled. His character was extremely relatable and that was extremely enticing to me.

I also liked Charlotte's character. She didn't seem like much at firsthand comparing her to the past and present was bananas. I loved how caring she was, how determined she was, and how she also had her own demons and owned up to them.

Overall, the pace, character development, and tone of the book were spot on. I'm not a really big fan of the back and forth between past and present, but the author made it work for me.

I would recommend this book to others and look forward to others in the series.

Born and raised around Houston Texas, Jessica spent most of her life complaining about the heat, humidity, and all around pain in the ass weather. It was only as an adult that she quickly realized the cost of living in Houston made up for not being able to breathe when she stepped outside. That’s why God created central air, after all.
Jessica is the mother of a perfect little boy–she refuses to accept that he inherited her attitude and sarcastic nature no matter what her husband says.
In addition to being a wife and mom, she’s also a wino, a coffee addict, and an avid lover of all types of books–romances still being her all time favs. Her husband likes to claim that reading is her obsession but she just says it’s a passion…there’s a difference. Not that she’d expect a boy to understand.
Jessica has been writing since she was a little girl, but thankfully grew out of drawing her own pictures for her stories before ever publishing her first book. Because an artist she is not.

Random Release & Review . . . Bullied In His Arms by KL Donn



Title: Bullied, In His Arms
Author: K.L. Donn

AMAZON
US | UK | CA | AU


Series: In His Arms; Book 2
Genre: Contemporary Romance



Obsessive and determined.

Law Brentwood is more  than a high school kid. He's more than he appears. Determined and on track to achieve his goals, he's brought to a stop the day he meets Nell Tucker. When every primal instinct in his DNA surfaces and suddenly his world shifts and now he has new goals to attain.

Solitary and private.

Nell Tucker was used to the rude names, the back handed insults and sometimes -- violence. After the loss of her mother, Nell's dad moved them to the city where things were different. The pace was quicker and fitting in wasn't so easy.

Until she met the new bad boy in school. The one with an intense stare that made her heart rate quicken.

Law makes promises no high school boy should, yet, she can't help but believe him. Until she catches him in a lie. They begin to pile on faster than he can back track and soon secrets are revealed that neither had counted on. 

Law is determined not to hurt Nell, so he does all he can to gain her forgiveness, but at what cost to her already fragile heart?


My Review

**3 stars**

This book was short and sweet. I finished it in less than an hour. I liked that Law was so protective and that he wanted to be with Nell regardless of the plans he'd already set in his life. I liked Nell's loyalty. She was fiercely protective of her dad, even to the detriment of herself. 

While I enjoyed the book, it didn't quite deliver the emotion I'm used to getting from insta-love stories. With Nell's mother, I know there was anger and resentment, but only because I was told. I didn't actually feel it. I was also confused as to why Nell suffered so much. The principal cared enough to call Law in, but when it came to Nell's bullying it seemed like something everyone knew about, but ignored and that concept didn't go with the reason Law was there.

Overall, I liked the book and would probably read more from this author.
