Johnston

by T.O. Smith

JOHNSTON

Being the mother charter prez, I've got to lead by example. Treat your old lady with respect. Keep a level head. Never make rash decisions.

But Aaliyah tips my entire world upside down. My blood runs hot every time she steps into the room. It's a struggle to keep my hands to myself around her.

It's easier when I know she's got a man she lives with.

But when he screws up . . . well, that major boundary is now off the table, and I'm about to wreck my entire world and destroy the example I'm trying to make because Aaliyah . . . I need a taste.

AALIYAH

Johnston is the kind of monster your parents told you wasn't under your bed when you were a little kid. He's the boy your parents warned you not to date when you were in high school.

He's the definition of danger and a bad member of society.

But I don't care; I can't help myself. I've always had a taste for the wild side, and I'm telling you--it doesn't get much wilder than Johnston.

But apparently, I like them really wild because Johnston is married .

Talk about opening a new can of worms.

Aaliyah and Johnston

Wow these two were not happy in the relationships they had been in with other people. Johnston wanted to divorce his wife Wendy for a long time now. And Aaliyah wanted to leave Dirk for a long time also but didn't really have anywhere to go.

Their exes are crazy and do some awful thing that almost kill Aaliyah.

Johnston and Aaliyah

This was a quick MC book that I loved even though there may be others that won’t feel that way only because there is cheating in it. Believe me Johnston’s marriage was made in hell since they married so young and neither have loved each other for so long. Aaliyah may not have been married but she was with someone who abused her and she finally left him to live at the clubhouse that she worked at.

I really fell for this book with the connection that Johnston and Aaliyah had and all of the drama that followed their story. For me it was a page turner that I couldn’t put down.

I enjoyed this series starter. It was a relatively quicker read for me. I personally wouldn’t label this as “cheating”, but to each their own. I am excited to see what comes next from this series. I hope we see more of Johnston & Aaliyah in the future books.

So today T.O. Smith released the first book in her Satan's Worshippers MC.  I was so looking forward to Johnston as we were introduced to him in her Savage Crows MC Texas Charter.  I could not put this book down.  Johnston who is the Prez of the MC had eyes for Aaliyah for two years but there was a slight problem.  Johnston is married and well Aaliyah isn't single either.  Johnston has not the best marriage and well Aaliyah didn't have it any easier.  Aaliyah has worked at the club for two years and she really likes her job and the guys of the MC.  When things go sideways  and Aaliyah finds herself with nowhere to go Johnston comes to her rescue.  T.O. Smith gives us a story that  makes it where you not only fall for the main characters but also the other brothers in the series.  This book gave us a look at the story of both Johnston and Aaliyah finding their happily ever after.  It also had me swooning at the care and love Johnston has for Aaliyah.  I \cant wait to read more from the other brothers in the MC.

.....RED.....

There's a lot to be said for a biker and his "Ole lady", but there is even more to be said for a MARRIED biker who didn't claim his wife as his Ole lady....
Johnston, the Prez of Satan's Worshippers (Mother Chapter) married his high-school sweetheart(Wendy)...ah young dumb lust...
A line was drawn in the sand, clearly marking that Wendy was never welcomed at the Clubhouse. All she saw from him was dollar signs as the years drug on, refusing to sign the divorce papers. It didn't matter that she bed hopped, either. Johnston, actually preferred that because he wasn't touching her.
Aaliyah, now see she lands in this small town and starts working at the club bar...As soon as Johnston and her saw one another sparks flew 2 years pass of her slinging drinks before the cataclysmic explosion....
What will you get out of this epic morally Grey biker read... open the pages to find your burn and see your HEA...

I’m going to try not to spoil too much. There’s cheating ( I know most don’t like that, but it’s my guilty pleasure). I don’t really consider it cheating because he was stuck in a loveless marriage. There’s drama and action and lots of sexy time. It was right up my alley! I have noticed authors tend to make the woman so infuriating and stupid with their constant ‘he could never want me’. Aaliyah did have some doubts, but she believed Johnston when he told her how he felt. Johnston and Aaliyah were perfect in my mind. He was a dominating ‘we’re doing this’ and she was a strong woman who would stand up against him. It made for an interesting flow. The only downfall was it was so short, but I think it could be 1,000 pages and still not be enough! Can’t wait for book two in this series!.

So if this is how the first book in the series is gonna start out I’m all in for the ride! Johnston is the Prez of the Satan’s Worshippers MC, all alpha male and knows what he wants! Aaliyah is a bar tender at the club has been for a few years. She has Johnston attention, problem being she has a boyfriend and he has a wife. Neither is in the position to be with the other. When Aaliyah leaves her boyfriend with nothing but a bag of clothes, still in her Pajamas and slippers she turns to the club for shelter. Johnston realizes his sham of a marriage is over now is time to cut ties. Little do we know what cutting those ties will set into motion for both Johnston and Aaliyah! Can they both survive their choices?.

If you’ve read the authors Savage Crows series then this series is much of the same ilk, and a welcome return to the mc world for me as these are my favourite of the authors series.

Interlinked yet new in its own right we get a look at the inner workings of a new club and it goes with a bang.

Triggers abound and cheating (technically….) the authors works are never for the faint of heart so be prepared for a dirty and dark read that leaves you wide eyed in its conclusion.

Looking forward to seeing more of these characters.

Johnston may be dangerous, ruthless, and seemingly cold hearted as the president of his MC but he loves hard with devotion. Aaliyah is one tough woman and she’ll never give up fighting huge obstacles. Their enemies better start praying because he won’t tolerate anyone hurting his woman.
T. O. Illustrated this couple and their lives with extraordinary detail through dialogue and her story telling. The emotions, love, and carnality between them is starkly vivid. His absolute devotion to her is awe inspiring and her resilience equally unmatched. The sex is scorching hot too!!.

Johnston had not idea when he got married young, it was such a big mistake. He cannot stand Wendy any longer, it is just a matter time before he makes he sign divorce papers.

Aaliyah has been working as a bartender in the Satan's Worshippers MC clubhouse for about two years. He boyfriend is really starting to become a pain about it, if she had somewhere to go she would leave him.

Johnston has waited for the right time to make a move on Aaliyah, now that she is staying at the club, the time is right. This is a steamy read, the main character cheats on his wife not that you fault him.

As always this author never disappoints! Even though it's interlinked with another series, it's a thrilling start to a new one in it's own right. As ever expect lots of dark and dirty moments. If you're new to the author then make sure you check any warnings, best rest assured all topics are always approached with compassion and understanding. Both Johnson and Aaliyah have walked away from their pasts and find themselves meeting and their chemistry is undeniable. Expect plenty of suspense, twists, passion, hurt, danger and so much more throughout this intense story. Enjoy!.

Cheating Kindof

Good short story with steamy scenes and the cheating trope.
Very strong Ghost [husband], "Tasha [wife] can't you see I'm mounring the LOVE of MY LIFE" energy.

Hold back for me was....not a lot of communicating with current relationships and why/how cheating happened. No way we saw why they wanted to he together romantically. Perplexed that the MMC had to do a grovel. He was introduced as this bad-ah alpha dude but some of the situations made him look weak. Overall I did enjoy even though it didn't quite hit the cheating thirst. The writing was strong and I plan to read the rest in the series

[Danee · Rating 5 out of 5]

A wonderfully moving story that is full of emotions. We are taken into the lives of Aaliyah and Johnston. Both are dealing with a crazy ex who won't leave them alone, Aaliyah has to deal with an ex who abused her and Johnston has to deal with an ex-wife who cheated during his marriage. Will they get a chance together or will their budding relationship not have a chance to succeed. This is an MC story where you are stuck with your book from beginning to end.

[Lisa Bing · Rating 5 out of 5]

This was an engaging read by a new-to-me author. I loved Johnston and Aaliyah together. They both have been in terrible relationships that should have been over ages ago...and when they finally are, they both act on the attraction and chemistry between them. Of course, nothing is that simple because their crazy exes won't just let them go. There is definitely violence in here but the cheating, which I normally dislike, didn't hit me wrong for this story. I loved the other members of the MC that we get to see in here and can't wait for them to get their own HEAs ;D

[Andra Shaw · Rating 4 out of 5]

T.O. Smith always gets right to the point in her books. Johnston is no exception and sets the stage well as the first book in the Satan's Worshippers MC series. The characters Johnston and Aaliyah have been in love, well lust is probably more like it, with one another for a long time. However, complications have kept them from acting on it, until they do so anyway. What ensues is a page-turning high drama, action packed, steamy, romantic storyline.

A page turning start to a new MC series.

An exciting start to a new series. Book one in the Satan's Worshippers MC series, starts it with a band! Johnston, president of the MC, is in a toxic marriage but doesn’t stop him from admiring Aaliyah from afar. Will he be able to get his chance to find his deserving HEA? One click to find out in this high drama, steamy, and page-turning romantic storyline that doesn’t disappoint. I enjoyed the start of this series and can’t wait for more!

[Isabelle D'A · Rating 5 out of 5]

Johnston is an enthralling, steamy and gripping book that has bewitched me from the very beginning. I wholeheartedly recommend this book to everyone! If you're looking for an easy to follow, hot, steamy, sexy, smooth flowing read that captures your attention from the start. Congratulations my friends you've found it. The characters and scenes are realistic and believable. Twists and turns and unpredictable surprises that kept my eyes on the pages and on the edge of my seat.

Johnston and Aaliyah have some tough relationships that they are both currently in, but when there is an opening for this couple, things get really great and heated. Even as they take things to a new level not everything is easy as their crazy ex's won't let them go without a fight. A great read to see how they get their own ending.

I just loved this quick ready about Aaliyah and Johnston. He is the Prez of and MC and she is a bartender for the club. Love for both of them is not what the thought it would be. Until Johnston finally makes a move and claims Aaliyah! Quick but with all the feels, action and steam. Couldn’t ask for more….well maybe a bit longer of a read.

[J. Ockenhouse · Rating 5 out of 5]

This is a good read. I like that Johnston is aware of his mistakes with marrying the wrong woman and that his internal struggle with his attraction to "Red" took him years to act on.

Red is a club bartender who finally gets her time with him but it comes at a few close calls. Can they overcome the drama and show that they are stronger together? I received an ARC for an honest and voluntarily review.

[Miss SHF Urquhart · Rating 5 out of 5]

Johnston married young and his wife and he are separated, although he hasn't told the club. He wants a divorce and she won't give him one even though she has cheated a lot. Aliyah came to work for the club about 2 years ago and lives with her boyfriend.

Things heat up and action, suspense, and danger follow. I love T.O. Smith's work and for me, this is one of the best so far.

So I’ve read a bunch from T. O. Smith and loved all of them. This book I just wasn’t pulled into. The story is good and the characters are great but I just couldn’t get into it as much as other books. Even though so much was done and happened I felt like I needed more. I wish there was more of the normal day to day stuff. It’s a good book but I just wanted more.

This is book one of this MC chapter and man was it an intense read! You have the pres Johnstan and his wife in a turbulent relationship along with a club bartender “Red” with whom he wants to be with. Aaliyah “Red” in a bad relationship with a guy who doesn’t trust her so he jeopardizes their relationship on purpose. Add in some murder attempts and you get a real good mc feeling book.

This is the first book in a new series called Satan's Worshippers MC. It's a fast-paced and standalone book that will keep you engaged from start to finish.
This is a story about two people who have the hots for each other but one is married and the other has a boyfriend until things change for the both of them. He's the president of the club and she is a bartender at the club.

Aaliyah and Johnston had an intriguing read. Being the mother charter prez, I've got to lead by example. Treat your old lady with respect. Keep a level head. Never make rash decisions. But Aaliyah tips his entire world upside down. His blood runs hot every time she steps into the room. It's a struggle to keep his hands to myself around her. It's easier when he knows she's got a man she lives with. Am voluntarily leaving my review.

Mc
Dual pov
Cheating


Johnston is the president of the MC and Aaliyah works for the club but doesn't do sexual favors for the club. They have always wanted each other but Johnston was married and Aaliyah didn't want to be a honewrecker and she had a boyfriend. When her and her boyfriend break up all begs are off and she becomes Johnstons.

Aaliyah is loved by the club and Johnston never trusted his wife enough to bring her around.

Through conflict, pain, abuse, and drama they stay together. They pick each other up when one is down.

I thought this was a really good book but I wish there was more depth into the club and a little more action. I would recommend it to people but I personally think it's missing all the action I like in my MC books.

[Jenni · Rating 5 out of 5]

Johnston is stuck in a loveless marriage, Aliyah is a bartender at the club, their love grows and soon becomes to much to control, but where will it leave then in the end? Well written steamy, desires, hard choices, and more.
