ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date December 6, 2025

I have to make a choice.
The woman I’d die for …
Or the club that saved me …

For years, I’ve watched her. My deadly obsession. I don’t need to be told—I know Milly is too good for me. She’s off limits to me and every other club member. It doesn’t mean we can’t enjoy some harmless flirting. Except, I’ve got no self-control. Especially when it comes to her. Because with every glance, every accidental brush of her hand, I’m pulled deeper into a dangerous game of temptation.

I know I should walk away, especially now that she’s caught the eye of the new doctor she works with. He can offer her the life I never could. I’ve fought battles before, but nothing compares to the war I’m fighting between my heart, my loyalty to the club, and the secrets we’re hiding. But secrets have a way of unraveling. And if anyone finds out I slept with the MC president’s sister, I’ll end up six feet under …

REVIEW:TWITCH is the sixth instalment in Bianca Lee Ward’s contemporary, adult WAR BROTHERS MC erotic, MC romance series. This is club IT and security brother Reece ‘Twitch’ O’Connah, and ER physician Milly White, sister of club president Bain ‘Reaper’ White. TWITCH can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty. Any important information from the previous story lines is revealed where necessary.

NOTE: Due to the nature of the story line premise, there may be triggers for more sensitive readers.

Told from dual first person perspectives (Twitch and Milly) TWITCH follows the forbidden romance and relationship between club IT and security specialist Reece ‘Twitch’ O’Connah, and ER physician Milly White. Milly White is off limits to the members of the War Brother MC. Her brother and club president Reaper, had made it known that she is under the protection of the club but Milly and Twitch’s attraction to one another is anything but subtle except to the man in charge. All is not well when Twitch’s most recent past refuses to let go, and Milly is about to be pushed to the side when emotional blackmail threatens any chance for a future with the man who controls her heart.

The world building primarily focuses on the forbidden relationship, and the emotional blackmail used against our story line couple. Threats are made, repercussions ensue, and Twitch must make a choice between love, or the MC.

The relationship between Twitch and Milly is one of immediate attraction but Reaper has declared Milly off limits, refusing to accept any of his brothers are good enough for our story line heroine. Twitch is determined to claim Milly as his own but someone else is struggling to let go. The $ex scenes are intimate and passionate without the us of over the top, sexually graphic language and text.

There is a large ensemble cast of colorful and familiar secondary and supporting characters including the return of the previous story line couples. We are introduced to new ER physician Dr. Edward Stanley, and sweet butt Mercedes.

TWITCH is a story of secrets and lies, betrayal and vengeance family and relationships, acceptance and love. The character driven premise is intriguing and emotional; the romance is seductive and fated; the characters are charismatic and determined.

ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date January 6, 2026

She escaped with her life—now she has to survive the aftermath.

Aspen endured what no one should ever face. But survival came at a price, and the weight of what she did haunts her every day.

He reminds her of the past, yet he is the only one who brings her peace.

Asher lost everything to protect the one girl he can’t have. Now, he’s crossing lines he swore he never would, sinking deeper into a world he hates, because keeping Aspen safe means sacrificing more than just his morals.

But nothing is as black and white as it seems.

Can two broken souls find a way forward when the past refuses to let go? Or will the truth shatter what little they have left?

••••••••

REVIEW: WOLF’S SONGBIRD is the second instalment in Cala Riley’s contemporary, adult MOUNTAIN RIVER MC, dark, erotic, MC romance series. This is former FBI agent Asher ‘Wolf’ Zimmerman , and Aspen’s story line. WOLF’S SONGBIRD can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty but I recommend reading books one PANTHER’S MAGPIE for back story and cohesion. Aspen is Panther’s foster-sister.

NOTE: Due to the nature of the story line premise, there may be triggers for more sensitive readers.

Told from dual first person perspectives (Asher and Aspen) WOLF’S SONGBIRD focuses on healing and survival. Both Asher and Aspen were victims of the Ragged Anarchy MC. Woking undercover Asher quickly discovers there is more to life than working for the FBI, and becomes guardian and protector of our story line heroine. Fast forward to present day, Aspen continues to struggle with the demons from her past, as Asher must convince the Mountain River MC that he is no longer a threat to everyone involved.

The world building focuses on moving on from the past, acceptance and forgiveness. As the MC prepare for their fund raising carnival, someone else is determined to take what doesn’t belong.

The relationship between Aspen and Asher began as a forced proximity when both were trapped by the Ragged Anarchy MC but Asher was determined to protect Aspen with his life, even if it meant leaving behind everything he once thought as his own. The $ex scenes are intimate and passionate without the use of over the top. Sexually graphic language and text.

There is a large ensemble cast of colorful and energetic secondary and supporting characters including the members of the Mountain River MC : MC president Calloway ‘Panther’ Alstone, and Maggie ‘Magpie’ Ellis; Caterpillar, Yak, Ridge, Rain Wilson, Dove, Eagle, and the introduction of Asher’s sister Ashley,and Rain’s father Charles ‘ Mustang’ Wilson. The requisite evil has a familiar face.

WOLF’S SONGBIRD is a story of secrets and lies, betrayal and vengeance,power and control, healing and survival, family and friendships, relationships and love. The fast paced, character driven premise is dramatic and intriguing; the romance is seductive; the characters are determined, dynamic and charismatic. WOLF’S SONGBIRD ends on a bit of a cliff hanger-you have been warned.

About the book: Release Date January 8, 2026

Wren
It was supposed to be a quick job—slip into a criminal network, steal the money, vanish before anyone noticed.
Except now, I’m wedged between a furious cartel and an unrelenting FBI agent.
There’s nowhere left to run… except straight into the arms of the last people I should trust: the Iron Outlaws MC.
Yet Catfish—the biker assigned to shadow my every move—gives me attitude and quiet understanding in equal measure.
I’ve spent my life surviving systems built to erase me.
I didn’t expect a rough-edged biker with too many scars and not enough patience to be the one who sees me clearly.

Catfish
The club got hacked on my watch. Money gone.
Now I’m stuck protecting the outsider they brought in to fix it.
Wren—a hacker with no last name, no respect, and a mouth that drives me wild.
They’re off-limits. President’s orders.
And I’m already one mistake away from getting benched for good.
But when Wren is threatened, the rules go out of the window.
They become the line I’ll cross.
Because there isn’t anything I won’t do, to keep us safe.

REVIEW: THE TOUCH WE SEEK is the sixth instalment in S. Cole’s (Scarlett Cole) contemporary, adult IRON OUTLAWS MC: COLORADO erotic, MC romance series, set in the author’s IRON OUTLAWS world. This is club treasurer and secretary, thirty year old, River ‘Catfish’ Haines and twenty-five year old, Blackhat hacker Wren Maren’s story line. THE TOUCH WE SEEK can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty. Any important information from the previous story lines is revealed where necessary. Wren was first introduced in book five-THE TRUST WE BROKE.

NOTE: Due to the nature of the story line premise, there may be issues for more sensitive readers.

Told from dual first person perspectives (Wren and Catfish) THE TOUCH WE SEEK follows Wren Maren who has been under the protection of the Iron Outlaws MC: New Jersey but their whereabouts has been compromised, and Wren finds themself now under the protection of the Colorado chapter. Assigned to protect Wren, River ‘Catfish’ Haines discovers there is more to Wren then he could have ever imagined; a hacker whose connections to both the Cartel and FBI has placed a target on their back. On the run, and in hiding, Wren and Catfish find themselves at a disadvantage as someone is always a step ahead.

The world building follows several pathways including Wren’s non-binary identity, something everyone accepts but struggles to keep the pronouns correct. Catfish has been warned off Wren as they are a job, and not a conquest but Catfish sees something in Wren that no one else can see. As Wren and Catfish dig deeper into the dark web, a pattern begins to appear, as Wren discovers the person taking aim may be the most dangerous of them all.

The relationship between Wren and Catfish begins as protection but quickly turns into something more. Wren is determined to ensure their identity remains non-binary but their attraction to Catfish threatens the stoic actions and attitude of the Blackhat hacker.The $ex scenes are intimate and passionate without the use of over the top, sexually graphic language and text.

Once again, there is a large ensemble cast of familiar, dynamic and energetic secondary and supporting characters including several members from both Iron Outlaws MC series.

THE TOUCH WE SEEK is a story of power and control, betrayal and vengeance, obsession and madness, acceptance and love. The character driven premise is detailed and dramatic with much focus on Wren’s non-binary status. The romance is seductive; the characters are determined and desperate.

ABOUT THE BOOK: Release December 24, 2025

Christopher has reaped what he sowed in his marriage and, by extension, the club. Things between the heads of the Caldwell clan are returning to normal, though life at large remains hectic. Megan’s drastic change inspires Christopher’s next move.

CJ struggles to find his way after so many upheavals. Ryan’s deceit finally catches up to him. Axel is concerned that something will happen to send his mother away for good, so he takes matters into his own hands. Johnnie’s treachery has an unintended victim, one that neither he nor Rory ever considered. Diesel and CJ are at each other’s necks, and neither is keen to back down. The girl at the center of it all? Rebel. Jana’s presence adds tension. Diesel still intends to marry her, but he can’t get Rebel off his mind, much to everyone’s chagrin. Christopher experiences déjà vu as his sons’ rivalry starts to mirror what played out between him and Snake so many years ago.

Meanwhile, forced by a club vote, Christopher seeks an uneasy partnership with Bash and the Scorpions, though mistrust is high. Everyone wants peace, but the path there isn’t easy. As bullshit runs amok, bodies and betrayal pile up. Things reach a boiling point, making a last alliance between the Death Dwellers and the American Scorpions unlikely.

•••••

REVIEW:RAMPAGE: BOILING POINT is the eighth instalment in Kathryn C Kelly’s contemporary, adult DEATH DWELLERS MC: LEGACY dark, MC series, a spin off set in the author’s DEATH DWELLERS MC world focusing on the multi-generational family, and dysfunctional membership in the Death Dwellers MC. Most of the original couples plays a significant role throughout the legacy series. Covering but a couple of days in the life, RAMPAGE: BOILING POINT is part one of the two part RAMPAGE. I recommend having a working knowledge of the series and the characters, as much of the current timeline is as of a direct result from the previous instalments in both series. RAMPAGE: BOILING POINT should not be read as a stand alone as it picks up immediately after the events of book seven REMISS.

NOTE: Due to the nature of the story line premise including strong language, graphic violence and SA, there WILL BE triggers for more sensitive readers. Many of the main characters are under sixteen years of age but the series is intended for adult readers.

Told from numerous omniscient third person perspectives including club president Christopher ‘Outlaw’ Caldwell and his adopted son Diesel, RAMPAGE: BOILING POINT advances the series but a few days, and continues to focus on the flawed, dysfunctional and unstable family dynamics of the member of the Death Dwellers MC, and the large extended and unorthodoxly interconnected Caldwell family. Christopher ‘Outlaw’ Caldwell continues to struggle with his tenuous hold on the MC founded by his grandfather, and his relationship with the woman who controls his heart. The membership in the Death Dwellers MC is splintering along with the fluctuating support of the people Christopher trusted, watching from the sidelines as the next generation begins to take control.

Meanwhile, Christopher and Meggie’s fourteen year old daughter Rebel is battling between head and heart, both loving and hating a much older man she considers family, a man who is about to destroy every aspect of her soul. Heartsick and heartbroken Rebel is forced to suffer the desolation of a friendship and love are broken beyond repair.

RAMPAGE: BOILING POINT follows several intersecting pathways revealing old wounds, personal betrayal, jealousy and greed. Christopher is unprepared for the spiral he is both participating in, and witnessing, a spiral that threatens any chance of happiness for everyone involved.

The large ensemble cast of secondary and supporting characters are questionable, destructive, obnoxious, wretched, atypical, and problematic. There are few redeeming qualities; no one is immune to betrayal and revenge; even the youngest find themselves both predator and prey, when vengeance is dark and deadly.

RAMPAGE: BOILING POINT is a story of betrayal and vengeance, power and control, secrets and lies, violence and death, jealousy and greed. The character driven premise is dramatic, dark, gritty and unconventional; the characters are disrespectful, unlikeable yet determined and desperate. The language is offensive, graphic and shocking-heed the trigger warnings-this series is not for everyone. RAMPAGE: BOILING POINT ends on a cliff hanger-you have been warned.

ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date December 17, 2025

After betraying her club, Becki Crowley is handed over as punishment to Royal, the Kings of Anarchy’s black-clad secretary, the man who keeps the books, the secrets, and the bodies buried. What starts as revenge twists into obsession as girls begin disappearing around Pearly Gates, whispers of a Demon Leaper creep through the county, and the line between monster and man starts to blur.
While the club scrambles to hold itself together, Legend and Sophie’s once-unbreakable bond begins to crack, threatening the fragile peace keeping Hell from burning down.
Royal speaks in riddles and bleeds secrets.
Becki’s got sins she’s trying to bury.
Together, they might damn the whole town.
If you love alpha bikers, forced proximity, enemies-to-lovers heat, love triangles, knife play and twisted love stories scarred by the past, this steamy, gritty romance will leave you begging for more.
Becki
Hell, Kentucky ain’t big enough for the both of us, and I damn sure didn’t come back to be forgiven.
After I tried to tear Legend and Sophie apart, the Kings handed me over like property.
My sentence? Live under the roof of Royal, the quiet, dangerous, poetry-spitting secretary of the Kings of Anarchy MC.
I expected chains.
I didn’t expect his hands.
His knives.
Royal ain’t like the rest of them. He’s dark in a way that feels old. Protective in a way that feels dangerous. I was raised to fear fire, but he’s the one burning me alive.
And when girls like me start going missing, I realize the truth might be worse than the rumors.
Royal
Club said I could have her.
They didn’t say what to do with her.
Becki Crowley isn’t a woman you tame. She’s the kind you cage or worship, and I haven’t decided which sin I’m committing yet.
She tried to break the Kings from the inside. Now she’s mine to deal with, body, heart, and every twisted secret between us.
In Hell, Kentucky, revenge is a love language.
Protection is possession.
And I plan to speak both fluently.

REVIEW: PROPERTY OF ROYAL is the second instalment in Morgan Jane Mitchell’s contemporary, adult KINGS OF ANARCHY MC: KENTUCKY dark, erotic, MC romance series, a part of the multi authored KINGS OF ANARCHY MC. This is KOAMC secretary Royal, and preacher’s daughter Becki Crowley’s story line, as well as a continuing look at the struggling relationship between Legend and Sophie. PROPERTY OF ROYAL can be read as a stand alone but for back story and cohesion, I recommend reading the series in order as there is an ongoing premise throughout. There is a slight supernatural element to the story line. If you have not read book one, PROPERTY OF LEGEND, there may be spoilers in my review.

NOTE: Due to the nature of the story line premise including knife play, there WILL BE triggers for more sensitive readers.

Told from four first person perspectives (Royal, Becki, Legend, Sophie) PROPERTY OF ROYAL follows in the wake of the imprisonment of Reverend Ezekiel Crowley’s daughter Becki Crowley, a young woman who is struggling with years of abuse, abuse that continues with her contact with the KOAMC. In the previous story line, Becki threatened Legend and Sophie, because of Sophie’s father’s connection to the religious cult known as the Pearly Gates, a connection that sees a number of missing and murdered young women going back several years. Becki is determined to prove she is not the threat to the KOAMC but a messenger that has been used and abused by the same people involved with the Pearly Gates cult. Sophie wants nothing to do with Becki but Royal is determined to protect the woman that is more like him than he could have ever imagined.

The world building follows several intersection paths that lead back to the Pearly Gates, and Hell, Kentucky. Becki’s imprisonment at the clubhouse is a threat to Sophie and Legend’s relationship, a threat that sees a history between Legend and our story line heroine.

The relationship between Royal and Becki is unconventional and atypical. Their attraction to one another is mired in a barley veiled hatred and issues of trust but Becki wants the same things as Royal, a man whose predilections run dangerous and dark. The $ex scenes are intense.

The secondary and supporting characters are questionable and deviant. Several of the members of the KOAMC return, as well as the reintroduction of Becki’s father Reverend Ezekiel Crowley.

PROPERTY OF ROYAL is a story of power and control, betrayal and vengeance, secrets and lies, dysfunctional family dynamics and abuse, acceptance and forgiveness. The character driven premises is dramatic and dark;there is no romance only an aggressive and growing relationship; the characters are determined, desperate and destructive. PROPERTY OF ROYAL ends on a bit of a cliff hanger-you have been warned.

Her addiction nearly killed her, and our second chance came with a price.

Bloodhound

When I found Vanna unconscious in that hospital bed—barely alive after her worst overdose yet—I made a promise that would change everything. No matter what it took, I wouldn’t watch her destroy herself anymore.

I’ve seen the darkest corners of human suffering, but nothing prepared me for the moment she looked at me with clear eyes for the first time in years and whispered she didn’t want to die.

Twelve weeks of rehab. One night of weakness between us. And now she’s back with news that changes everything—a chance at the family I never thought we’d have.

She’s fighting her demons with everything she’s got. Making promises I want desperately to believe.

But Morgantown has a long memory, and her past isn’t done with her yet.

When her former dealer shows up saying she owes him, that the debts can only be paid one way, it’s not just her recovery at stake. It’s our entire future.

Some men think broken women are easy prey. They’ve never met a man who’d burn the whole world down to keep his family safe.

I’ve spent years watching her slip through my fingers. This time, I’ll destroy anyone who tries to drag her back into darkness—even if I have to become the monster they fear most.

ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date December 22, 2025

San Salona was supposed to be Cece Montgomery’s refuge after her messy divorce. Instead, it feels like a cage of gossip, family duty, and the shadow of her ex-husband, the mayor’s golden-boy son, parading his new girlfriend around town for the holidays.

Then Brayden Cole rides in with his motorcycle club to drop off toys and refuses to leave. Dark, dangerous, and uninvited, he keeps showing up at the church, at the market, in her shadows, pulling Cece into a fire she swore she would never touch again.

Everyone warns her he will ruin her.
The mayor wants her shamed. Her ex wants her humiliated. Her father wants her redeemed.

But Brayden wants her completely.

And this Christmas, Cece is ready to risk it all for the outlaw who will not let her go.

••••••

REVIEW:Santa on a motorcycle? Sign me up.

Hogging the Holidays is the story of CeCe and Brayden, one filled with Christmas magic, family drama and an ex that takes gold on being douche of the year.

Cece is dealing with the aftermath of a messy divorce, which like most, put her through the ringer. Hoping for a little sanctuary, Cece heads to San Salona in hopes of a little peace for the holidays. Alas, she is met with nothing but family gossip and obligations and her pain in the bum ex and his new girlfriend parading around town. Life couldn’t get any better. With everyone wanting something from her at all times, Cece has just about given up on the holiday season, until Brayden comes riding into town.

Brayden is the VP of the Heaven’s Rejects MC and he’s in town to drop the toys off for the families in need that the club has raised via the toy drive. Think Toys for Tots kinda thing. While in town, he hears nothing but gossip about Cece and her very new divorce, not that it matters to him much. However these two keep meeting, one interaction after another and their chemistry is off the charts. Maybe it’s fate, maybe it’s a little Christmas magic, but either way Brayden isn’t going to let Cece get away.

Cece and Brayden’s story was a nice treat for the holidays. These two were so different, a preacher’s daughter and a VP from a motorcycle club, but someone they just fit so well together. Brayden was the shield that Cece needed to finally grow, and Cece was the safe place that Brayden needed to find strength. Cece’s dad had me cursing, but thankfully he finally came to his senses and they were able to come together as a family and work through it. Overall, I enjoyed the book and I always look forward to what this author has coming up.

Her wolf calls. Mine answers with a snarl. Now she’s mine…whether we like it or not.

Morwyn

I’m the Helena Shifter Pack healer—calm, capable, always in control. Until my heat detonates.

It hits hard, vicious, and hungry enough to drag my wolf straight to the one man I swore I’d never want: Fenris Sheppard. My brother’s best friend. A walking sin in leather. The wolf I’ve avoided for years.

I try to fight it. My wolf doesn’t care. She wants him…only him…to claim me.

Fenris

I’ve wanted Morwyn since her scent first hooked into my ribs, but she was always off-limits—too good for me, too important to the pack, too dangerous to touch.

Then her heat erupts, feral and burning, and every rule I ever followed goes up in smoke. She calls. My wolf answers. And once I get my hands on her, there’s no going back.

Heat bound us. Desire claimed us. And I’ll tear down the whole damn pack before I let her go.
