ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date July 9, 2026

She came to Shine to save her family. Falling for the biker she was meant to betray was never part of the plan.

Vanessa
When I landed in town to do my sadistic stepbrother’s bidding, I never imagined I’d come face to face with the man I spent one unforgettable night with five years ago.

And I definitely didn’t expect him to be part of the MC I was sent here to spy on.

Still, I’m desperate to save my family and get us far away from the chaos that has become our life. And this is my only way out.

When the club takes me in under false pretenses, I certainly never dreamed Braxton and I would come crashing together like we had five years ago.

Or that the man I was sent to double-cross would be the one to consume my nights and break down my walls, making be believe that maybe he’s the only man in this world I can have faith in to get us all out alive.

Braxton
Our club is being attacked by an enemy who has escaped us too many times. I can’t afford any distractions or one more complication in my carefully constructed world.

The last woman I expected to crash back into my life was the gorgeous blonde who snuck out of my bed five years ago.

I never would have thought Vanessa would be the one to remind me life can be more than protecting my brothers—that I can have more, with her.

But she holds secrets that could destroy us, destroy my club.

And when they come to light, I have to make a choice—turn my back on her or show her why I’m the nightmare her monsters should be terrified of.

REVIEW:The final installment in The Black Rose MC, Braxton by Kate Randall has arrived! I’m sad to see the series come to end, but what an end it is. As always, I recommend reading a series in order to get the most out of it, however each book can be read as a standalone in the interconnected world.

Braxton and Vanessa’s story is a tension filled romance that has its readers hanging on every last page. These two have a history, one that is hot and heavy and started with a one night stand of all things, but come on, their bikers, are you really surprised? But just like in Cinderella, a step-sibling comes in and causes havoc and mayhem in their wake. After meeting Braxton again years later, Vanessa is forced into a spy operation by her weasel of a step-brother. Do what he wants or he’s going to hurt her mother and her sister, what choice does she really have.

But Vanessa isn’t taking this blackmail lying down, no she has her own plan, she just wasn’t expecting for Braxton to still have so much power over her. Even after all these years, their chemistry is still piping hot. As Vanessa starts becoming more and more familiar in the club, she starts to see just how much Braxton really means to her, and his club. She doesn’t want to give her brother what he wants, but what other choice does she have?

Braxton and Vanessa’s story was definitely a good way to end the Black Rose’s series. These two clearly vibe for one another, their chemistry and banter is top notch, but Braxton can tell Vanessa is holding back, he just doesn’t know why. I think when it finally came down to it and Vanessa had to make the choice, one way or another it was going to cost her. These two together are an amazing couple, two people bound and determined to protect those that they love, and stop at nothing to ensure they are safe and loved.

Overall, I enjoyed the book and hope to see another MC series from this author. For readers looking for a morally gray MC series about bikers who protect their own and the badas* woman that loves them, then look no further, The Back Rose MC is where you wanna be.

ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date March 26, 2026

When she barges into his clubhouse, he demands answers. Namely about the thirteen-year-old daughter he never knew existed.

Camry
We were oil and water the first time we met, and nothing has changed. He’s my sister’s ex, and the father of her child he claims he didn’t know about. Now he thinks he has every right to take my niece from me, and the only way I can be a part of her life is to live with the one person who gets under my skin simply by breathing.

He’s crass, arrogant, and completely off-limits. But someone needs to tell that to the butterflies that explode in me every time he turns his devastating smile in my direction.

The heat building between us is more than fiery disdain, and that’s something neither of us are prepared for, but we can’t seem to escape. Now I’m wondering if the cocky boy I knew has turned into a brave man who stays and protects what’s his.

Barrett
I left my hometown in the rearview and never looked back, until a girl shows up at my clubhouse and claims she’s my daughter.

When her aunt practically barrels through the gates searching for her niece, I’m left with only one option—play nice with Camryn Fuller or risk alienating my daughter. Easier said than done.

I’m stuck living with a woman who’s constantly looking over my shoulder, waiting for me to mess up. When I do, it isn’t with my kid. It’s with her feisty aunt and a moment when I should have walked away instead of kissing the hell out of her.

And I can’t bring myself to regret it. Now, a ghost from my past has set his sights on taking my daughter, throwing our fresh start into utter chaos.

He thinks I’m the same scared kid he got rid of all those years ago, but I’ll show him that I’ve turned into the man he should be afraid of this time around.

REVIEW: 💜The Black Rose MC is at it again. 💜

The next installment in the Black Rose MC has arrived with book seven; Barrett. As always, I do recommend reading a series in order to get the most out of it. Each of the books in the series can be read as a standalone in the series, but they are in an interconnected world, so most characters pop in and out of most of the books.

Barrett isn’t your average joe-smo, he’s stubborn to a fault, loyal and rough around the edges. He is used to his life and has no plans of changing things, that is until he gets the surprise of a lifetime on his latest birthday. That surprise you ask….a teenage daughter he never knew existed and she comes with a scary aunt too.

When young Sydney makes her way to the Black Rose MC Clubhouse to track down a man she knows to be her father, she is scared, but not as scared when her aunt Camryn finds out what she has done. When Camryn learns what her niece has done she goes thermal-nuclear. Her sister (Syd’s mother) was a mess, but she still loved her, with her messy way of life and death, Camryn has been the only constant in Syd’s life and she isn’t letting some man neither of them know hurt her niece. Neither of them were expecting Barrett or the Black Rose MC.

I think this is my new favorite addition to the Black Rose Mc. When he learns he has a daughter, his entire life changes, and when Camryn challenges him on everything he says and does, that just makes his blood boil even more. And not in a way he was expecting. You can tell how much Syd means to Camryn, and how quickly she starts to mean everything to Barrett. There two are light gasoline and fire, they only spark hotter when they are together, but that heat isn’t just their sexual chemistry, it’s also their joint goal to make sure Syd is happy and healthy. When Barrett’s past comes back to haunt him, it puts his very fragile relationship with Syd and Cam at jeopardy, but he is nothing if not determined to keep what he has found. Or rather what has found him.

Way to go Ms. Author, another great addition to add to the series, I hope there is more to come. For readers that love a MC romance with spicy undertones and found family, this is the book for you.

ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date November 6, 2025

She was supposed to be off-limits. He never much cared for following rules.

Cece

When I first came to Shine, I was quiet, sweet, and compliant. That’s all I ever knew. Anything else meant punishment and pain in my old life.
Now the rage inside of me is eating me alive, and everyone has all but given up on trying to help.
Except the one man who has always stood by my side.
No matter how horrible and cruel I am to him, he refuses to leave, refuses to let me fall into the black hole I’m not sure I want out of.
His gentle touches and sweet smiles are nothing I’ve ever known, and it ignites feelings in me I didn’t think possible after barely surviving the hellhole I was raised in.
But he wants that sweet girl he met, and I don’t know if he can accept the woman who rose from the ashes of her horrific past to become the nightmare for the monsters who once terrified her.

Cash

She came to the clubhouse terrified of her own shadow, thrust into a new life with complete strangers far away from everything she knew.
I made sure she felt safe and protected, and she became the salve that eased the pain of losing a brother.
I wasn’t supposed to notice the way she blushed so prettily when I held her gaze for too long, or the way she looked so damn tempting every time she gave me a real smile.
I sure as hell wasn’t supposed to crave that smile against my lips.
Giving into temptation would blow our world apart, and it’s getting harder and harder for me to care.
But the past has a not so funny way of showing up when we least expect it.
The monsters from hers need to be dealt with once and for all before they find a way to cause her more pain.
They will pay for hurting my woman then, and I’ll make damn sure they’re buried six feet under before they ever have a chance to do it again.

REVIEW:🌹 The Black Rose MC Returns 🌹

The Black Rose MC returns with the sixth book in the series; Cash. This book can be read as a standalone in an interconnected series, but as always, I recommend reading in order to get the most out of the book. Cash is a dark MMC, age gap, forbidden romance filled with past trauma from loss and spicy scenes that will have you running for the privacy of your own room. 😉

We meet Cece in book two of this series (Lucy and Jude) and ever since that I’ve been eager to see what Ms. Kate has in store for her. Cece hasn’t had it easy, but she is a trooper that keeps pushing through, her story is peppered with nothing but chaos and over time the sweet young girl has learned how to rage. With Cash as her protector and guide (kinda) Cece slowly grows into the person she wants to be, she stumbles through, be warned. There are going to be moments in this book that you are going to be scratching your head and uttering “WTF is this woman doing?!” Cash however is there to protect her and never judge her for the things she has experienced, he truly is so sweet and gentle with her and only her, it makes his character very well rounded.

Overall, Cash is a fast paced read that fans of the series are going to really enjoy. There is nothing like seeing a character that has been with the series from the near getgo, finally get the HEA that we all know we wanted. As always, check your trigger warnings and enjoy the next adventure with the Black Roses MMC.

ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date August 7, 2025

She swore she would never again let a biker into her heart. He swore she would be his.

Maizie
There is nothing I wouldn’t do to protect my son and the life I’ve built in Shine. Including keeping my past exactly where it belongs—buried and forgotten.

The last thing I need is the sexy and sweet biker shoving his way into my life. Before I know it, he’s slipped past my defenses and infiltrated the walls I’ve held in place. Walls that are there for good reason.

But when my past comes back and threatens to destroy the peace I’ve found with the last man I thought I’d find it with, I’m terrified the secrets that I’ve had to live with for so long will mean the tragic beginning of our heartbreaking end.

Wyatt
The brotherhood has been my life and the only family I’ve ever needed.

Then the dark-haired beauty walked in the club’s bar and made me want something different. Something more.

She has her secrets, but I’m willing to do whatever it takes to gain her hard-earned trust. Little did I know, those secrets could very well destroy the brotherhood I’ve risked my life to defend.

Now I’m in deep with the gorgeous single mother and will do anything in my power to shield her from our enemies who threaten to destroy everything I’ve sworn to protect.

•••••

REVIEW:Wyatt is the fifth installment in the Black Roses MC by the ever lovely Kate Randall. As always, I recommend reading a series in order to get the most out of it, but each book can be read as a standalone in an interconnected series. Wyatt is a MC romance with strong ties to found family, as always check your trigger warnings before reading.

Maizie is a single mother from a very religious family, and the kind that believes all love is equal. Mazie gains some limited freedom when she is away for college, but also meets Nolan. He’s a one night stand, but one that gives her her son Colby. Determined to not lead the same type of life her family has, and to give her son the best life she can, she ventures out and finds herself working at a MC biker bar owned by the Black Roses. There she meets Wyatt and the rest of the brotherhood and their women, there she finds a family for herself and her son. For five years she has worked her butt off to give Colby a good life, and Wyatt has always been there. The pair have chemistry, but neither of them have acted on it just yet. When trouble comes rolling into the clubhouse in the form of Colby’s bio dad, aka Nolan, it shakes Mazie to her core. What does he want? Are his threats real?

Wyatt and Mazie are such a pair. Mazie is strong and protective of her son and those that she considers family, but you can tell when her ex rolls into town how freaked out she is. When Wyatt finally makes his move to solidify their relationship, it’s almost like the breath she was holding in is let go. Wyatt is a biker, they come hard hired to protect what is theres and I think both Mazie and Colby both needed that in him. Pepper is a cute little bonus for the scenes with Colby as well.

The plot is fast paced and easy to keep up with, the spice is there, but for once I can say I enjoyed the story more than the spicy bits in it. It was fun seeing characters from previous books in the series as well as what else is going on in the club. The banter in this book is giggle-worthy for sure, overall very pleased with the read.

ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date May 15, 2025

She never thought her high school crush would give her a second glance. He thought she was too sweet to be tainted by him. Until one night changes everything.

Mia
Moving back to Shine wasn’t my plan, but when I thought my grandmother needed me, I dropped everything to come home. That’s what I’ve always done—what’s always been expected of me.
What I didn’t expect was to run into the only boy I ever dreamed of in high school who grew up to be the most beautiful man I’d ever laid eyes on. A man who is now the Vice President of the Black Roses MC
The last thing I should do is get swept into the dangerous life that I steered clear from when I came back, but there’s no denying the fierce pull between us.
And there’s no telling where I’ll end up if I give in.

Knox
My job is to protect my club and my brothers. I don’t have time for the little librarian who runs circles through my mind.
But no matter how many times I tell myself she’s too good, too clean for someone like me, she finds a way to infiltrate the walls I erected years ago.
I should have stopped myself from tasting her, from claiming her, but one kiss changed everything.
Now, there’s a danger lurking, and it’s unlike anything we’ve seen before. A new enemy is at our doorstep. And this time, it’s my woman they’re after.

••••••

REVIEW:The next installment in the Black Roses MC; Knox by Kate Randall has arrived, and what a book it is. As always, I recommend reading the series in order to get the most out of it, but each book can be read as a standalone.

Mia and Knox will always have a special place in my heart, their story speaks to so many reads, regardless of gender. We all have hope that a past crush would see us for who we are and return those feelings somehow. With Mia and Knox, it leaves a little hope left for the rest of us, even if it only is a book.

Mia returns to her hometown in order to help her ailing grandmother, while it is not something she necessarily wants to do, she does what is expected of her, like always. Little does she know her hometown has more in store for her than just helping her Nan out. Her crush from high school, the one boy she has never really let go of, he’s just around the corner, and just as handsome as he was all those years ago.

Knox lives his life to protect his club, to protect his family. He get his hands dirtier than most and doesn’t mind it as long as it’s for the right reasons. Chaos is circling, but the only thing that seems to occupy his mind is a face from long ago. The innocent little library that has haunted his dreams, she’s back in Shine, back in his terrority. One taste and he is gone.

Holy moly! Knox might just take the top spot for MC hotties in the series, and that is saying something, Ozzy had me in a chokehold, but Knox…(fans myself) These two had some of the best chemistry in the series, with their shared history they weren’t strangers, but more like long lost lovers coming together again. Knox and Mia take the time to learn one another, truly learn one another, not the personality they show to the world, the real person behind the mask. They make such a strong connection to each other because of this, and that too leaves their spicy scenes to be top notch hot.

The story line is fast paced, easy to follow and the added suspense of danger adds just the right amount of tension to keep the reader engaged and eager for the next page. With the next book arriving in the summer, I can’t wait to see where Ms. Author takes us next.

ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date January 25, 2024

Fifteen years ago, he broke her heart to save her from danger. Now she’s back, and he’s the only one who can protect her from the deadly threat closing in around them.

Freya
All I wanted when I left Shine, Massachusetts was a fresh start. I built a career and a reputation I could be proud of by putting the worst of the criminal underworld behind bars.
I was safe and away from the turbulent life of the Black Roses.
Until a knock at my door thrust me back into the town I ran from, and into the clubhouse of the man who shattered my heart.

Ozzy
I built a wall around my heart after I broke both of ours. I did what I had to do as the future president of the Black Roses MC. I needed Freya safe, and my brothers needed me whole.
For fifteen years, I pretended I was.
Now, I owe a man a favor, and he’s come to collect in the form of my club safeguarding the one woman who has the power to break me all over again.

They nearly ended her life fifteen years ago, now they’ll pay with theirs for ever believing they could touch her in the first place.

••••

REVIEW:Ozzy is the third installment in the Black Rose MC series by the ever talented; Kate Randall. As it is book three in the series, I do recommend reading the series in order, but they can be read as standalones should a reader choose. If you love MC romances filled with strong female leads, second chance love stories and alpha, protective men, then this series is the one for you.

Ozzy and Freya have history. A history of blood, broken promises and lost love. Fifteen years later and a favor of a friend brings them back together again. Freya is now a high-powered lawyer; she puts bad people away for a living. Now that what feels like her life-long goal of putting away the man that hurt her all those years is coming true, she feels like she can finally move on to the next stage of her life. Too bad said bad guy has other plans.

When a favor is called in; MC President, Ozzy makes good on it. The favor? To protect a woman that the Italian Mafia has painted a target on. The kicker? It just happens to be his ex, an ex that ripped part of his soul out when she left him all those years ago. Freya isn’t stopping though, even if she has to rely on the only man she has ever loved, the man who broke her heart when she was eighteen, and one that she never was able to forget.

Man of man, the amount of chemistry and angst between these two; you could cut it with a knife. From the little we saw of them in the previous books, I was excited to see what else was going to happen. Their second chance romance was so bittersweet at first, then they learned what really happened, and how Ozzy and Freya came to terms with it. It makes the storyline even better.

I can’t wait to see what MC man we get next; I hope Knox!
