“Baby girl, I’m going to count to three…”

Carlee is doing just fine on her own. She doesn’t need a man in her life. They never treat her right anyway. She certainly doesn’t need her best friend’s brother to swoop into town and take over like he never left her. It takes him less than one day to cause her to lose her car, her job, and her apartment. Now she’s furious.

Atlas is in town as a favor to his father to help the MC club. What he’s not prepared for is Carlee—a woman he’s spent years trying to forget. A woman with cute pigtails, a sassy attitude, a pile of problems, and the need for a good spanking.

She can push him away all she wants, but he's not going anywhere without her.


Combining the sizzling talents of bestselling authors Pepper North, Kate Oliver, and Becca Jameson, the Shadowridge Guardians are guaranteed to give you a thrill and leave you dreaming of your own throbbing motorcycle joyride.

Are you daring enough to ride with a club of rough, growly, commanding men? The protective Daddies of the Shadowridge Guardians Motorcycle Club will stop at nothing to ensure the safety and protection of everything that belongs to their Littles, their club, and their town. Throw in some sassy, naughty, mischievous women who won’t hesitate to serve their fair share of attitude even in the face of looming danger, and this brand new MC Romance series is ready to ignite!

4.5⭐️ I loved these two so much!

Carlee is such a sweetheart and it makes me sad that she was alone for so long but she is so strong! I love that Atlas knows what he wants and lets nothing stop him from going after it.

I cannot wait for Bear's story! Hopefully with Brooke. If not, I can't wait for her story too!

Hammie finds a home

I loved this third book in the Shadowridge Guardians MC series.
Atlas is an interesting character, having grown up in the MC he left for university, then a job in the big city. He's been working the corporate ladder for ten years when he's called home. The MC treasurer has gone missing, and Atlas needs to find out what's going on. On his first night home, he runs into Carlee, whose car has broken down.
Atlas has known Carlee since she was five, best friend of his sister Remi. Why hadn't she called for help? Anyone in the club wouldn't hesitate to help. She's family.
Carlee's reaction to him sets Atlas on a path of discovery of who he now is and wants to be.
Carlee has not had it easy. And life now is spiralling out of control. Altas's reappearance in her life comes at the worst time in her life, and that's saying a lot.
As Atlas makes it his mission to help her, all bets are off.
This is a loving story full of heart and heat.
I love this MC and all the daddies within it.
I highly recommend this book,series, and author.

The Shadowridge Guardians MC is comprised of Daddy Doms and the town of Shadowridge seems to have a lot of Littles. Carlee is one of those littles and this is her story with Atlas.

Carlee is more than a little surprised as she's looking for something in her broken-down car trunk and a motorcycle pulls up behind her. Not so much the motorcycle but it's rider, Atlas.

Atlas had left the MC and Shadowridge to pursue his career as an accountant. He lives in the city and has only returned at his father's request to figure out the books when the club treasurer vanishes.

He knows Carlee is a little, she is his sister's bestfriend. He never expected to have to Daddy her in order for her to cooperate with him. He only wants to get her out of a bad situation.

Carlee is set to walk home, but Atlas won't hear of it, at her apartment her landlord is waiting for her wanting the two months' rent she owes. It's Atlas that buys them time to at least get her things out of the apartment. She really doesn't want to go to the clubhouse, she believes everyone there hates her.

Atlas will get that story out of her but not tonight, tonight she needs rest before she goes to work. He drives her into work but to her dismay has her collecting her things and leaving. Her boss is a lying bully, and she wouldn't be working there anymore. although she was blaming him for everything that has happened in the last few hours, Atlas is having none of it. He gets her back to the clubhouse and gets her breakfast before he questions her about her relationship with Silver.

The more Carlee tells him the angrier he gets, not at her but at the man she had put her trust in. Silver had been lying the whole time he was a member. He wasn't a Daddy Dom he is an abuser. Apparently, the books at the MC aren't the only thing he needs to pay for.

His sister Remi doesn't get to see Carlee yet but she will shortly. In the meantime, Atlas checks on the sleeping Carlee and then starts on the mess left behind by Silver.

Carlee is very Little, but she is also independent and feisty, much like Atlas' sister. She is constantly pushing the Daddy in Atlas and he's loving every minute. He's already decided she's the only one for him, but he has to prove it to her.

That process and the finding what Silver has done to the finances of the MC take up the rest of this book. I found it amusing, sexy, fun, romantic and with regard to Silver a bit scary.

I now have to go back and read the first two books in this multi-author series. I need to see how Steele and Ivy and Kade and Remi got together before the next book comes out.

Aggressive and quick of possession in the beginning. Cute. quick read and different than kate oliver’s style of writing. Since it’s an mc i liked it even more. Though i should read more since I don’t really know most of these characters like steele or bear. I’m on Gabriel’s book but I’ve only heard of Kade but never read it. 4.5/5 spice was 🌶️🌶️ cute. I always tear up when the mc’s are sweat and caring and attentive. She really was brave for leaving

Simply wonderful addition to series, great characters and a plot that will hold you riveted

Atlas had been returning home to his father and the Shadowridge MC that he had grown up in and that were his brothers and where his father and younger sister still resided and now his younger sister Remi had found her Daddy, who was Kade one of the MC brothers and who he had known for years.

On the way to the MC he sees a young woman broken down on the side of the road, he is extremely and is shocked to discover that it is in fact Carlee and Atlas realises that this little girl is in trouble but not even he could have envisioned that his club and one of its members is behind it.

Atlas realises that Silver that is behind the embezzling that has been happening at the club is in fact the Daddy that Carlee had been with for a little while, when he speaks with his little girl, he discovers that she had been mistreated, beaten and completely isolated from her friends and the MC as well as taking anything of worth from her and selling it.

Within a very short time Atlas realises that he has met his Little Girl and that they are going well suited and that he wants to take care of this delightful little girl and ensure that she is kept safe from Silver as he is sure that he will return to the MC where she is now living with him and his family.

I guarantee that you will be blown away by this wonderful story and I am sure that you will not be able to put this book down until you reach the final page and discover the outcome.

I assure you that you will love every moment of this book it is simply a fantastic read.
I voluntarily received and review an Advanced Reader Copy

What happens when your long time crush comes back to town in the middle of you having the worst sting of luck ever? Oh a lot! Especially when he is the Daddy you have always wanted and he goes all Daddy and protective and determined to help. Carlee is in the middle of a crisis and has no where to turn. Her opinion anyway. In rides Atlas. Back in town to straighten out a mess left by the club treasurer, Atlas never expects to come to the rescue of a little. Certainly not his sister's best friend who is all grown up. Thrown together unexpectedly, sparks fly, and these two find a way to their HEA. Oh the journey there is hot as hades and full of the unexpected. They both need to figure out what they want out of life and Carlee needs to get her head out of her tail and realize that the Shadowridge Guardians protect the littles they view as theirs.
I loved this book and was hooked from the first chapter! Bring on the next because I am hooked on this world.

I didn't read the first two books in the series but it didn't effect the reading experience for this one. Ever since I read my first book by Becca I've always loved her writing. Even though some of her books deal with serious topics, like this one with domestic violence, she always finds some way to fit in some fun things with the littles. She's one of the few authors who does't hesitate to write her littles in little headspace. I loved Carlee in this book. After the rough relationship she just got out of it was great for her to find Atlas. She deserved someone who will take care of her, love her fiercely and put her first. Atlas had all that and then some. They have become a favorite couple that Becca has written. Where they ended up was so special!

I am leaving my honest review for a complimentary copy of this book via the author.

Getting to read Atlas and Carlee's story just after finishing Remi and Kade was awesome and made perfect sense. Remi and Carlee had grown up as best friends. Carlee had hung out at the MC Clubhouse for years so when she started dating the Treasurer nobody really thought much of it. When she moved in with him and stopped coming to the clubhouse they thought it was strange but sometimes that happens. Sadly what they did not know was he was not the man he said he was. Luckily Atlas runs into Carlee when her car breaks down and not only does he rescue her from the side of the road but ends up rescuing her from her bad luck and a very bad man.
If you ahve not been reading these books I would recommend starting firm the beginning. You do not have to but in my opinion they flow so much better when you do! Just watch out they are addictive!

What can I say? This new series by Pepper North, Kate Oliver and now Becca Jameson has been outstanding. Carlee has had a string of really bad luck and the guy she's crushed on for seveal years shows up just when her car breaks down. Atlas left the MC to become an accountant in a big city but he had to come back home to help straighten out a mess by the former accountant...........who has disappeared. These two at first were like oil and water..............didn't mix but that changes quickly and I loved watching them come together as a couple! When Carlee is in danger, Atlas and the rest of the MC are there for her. I loved seeing the couples from the first two books and can't wait for more in this series!

If you want a sweet romantic book with a little action you should read "Atlas" by Becca Jameson. This this the third book in The Shadowridge Guardians MC series. When you know you found your partner for life you just know especially with Atlas and Carlee. Career was bad on her luck with getting out of a horrible abusive relationship when her car broke down on the side of the road. Atlas came to town to help the MC since the treasure disappeared when he saw an attractive butt sticking out of the trunk of a car. When he realized it was Carlee. The whirlwind of romance and love has started. It was super sweet. I highly recommend this book.

I was given an advanced reader copy of this book for my honest review.

This is the 3rd book in the Shadowridge Guardian series and it’s amazing! Atlas grew up with the Guardians but always wanted to make his own way in the big city. He’s been living in the city for years but comes back to help his dad and the Guardians when their treasurer disappears. His first night in town he stops to help a stranded car and is shocked to see that it’s Carlee, his little sisters best friend.
Carlee’s life has always been rough but she can handle it, she doesn’t need a man, but a Daddy sure would be nice! She’s sure no one will want to deal with her messy life but Atlas storms his way into her life then her heart! Their relationship is contentious, fast paced and really smokin’ hot! I can’t wait for the next book!

Such a great story

I love all three of these books. Such a great idea splitting them between the three fantastic authors. The books draw you in and make you never want to leave. I absolutely love the dynamics that these to have and laughed hard at the tree as I could so clearly visualise the whole scene. Love love love these books the only downside is having to be patient and wait so so long for the next story. Yes I get it you each have your own fantastic books to write and I gobble them up but I am invested in each character and can't wait to see them all happy with their own littlest Rock, Doc, Talon etc oh my. I really really need to learn patience.
Everyone READ THESE BOOKS THERE BRILLIANT.

3.5/5⭐️ This book was the first book from Becca that I’ve read and I actually found it really cute and well written. I loved the relationship between Carlee and Atlas so much. At times I did question how strong he came on, especially considering her history, but I liked that she was sassy and pushed back. This book definitely has more age-play than the last two and we got a good insight into the characters. I do wish that Silver’s return was a bit more climactic but I did like what followed regardless.

One thing I would have liked was for the chapters to have said whose POV it was. It would have made things a bit clearer.

Overall, I did like it. It’s a super fast-paced romance but very sweet.

Looking forward to the next few books and hope we get to meet Brooke.

Atlas & Carlee

Is age difference really an issue? Not when it's real love. That's what happened when Atlas came home to fix Silver's mess!! Silver was the treasurer of the MC. A few of the guys have a feeling about him but they shake it off.

Then Atlas, who just got home & was taking his bike for a ride, came across a woman with a broken down vehicle. He stopped to help, it's what the Guardians do, & she turned around & his headlight shows that it's Carlee!! WTF?!?! When she sees it's Atlas she wants to run. She hasn't been to the compound in months. And she doesn't want to see them! Mostly embarrassed & sad.

That's how they reconnect! It's a great love story of a Daddy & His Little! I loved it!

Enjoy!!

I volunteered to read and review an advanced readers copy of ATLAS . I enjoyed reading this story . This story is book 3 of the Shadowridge Guardians MC series . Carlee has had a thing for Atlas since she was younger after college Atlas left town and the MC . He's back in town to help his father and the Guardians straighten out the books after their treasurer Silver took off and stole money . Carlee dated Silver till he abused her . Carlee is struggling and Atlas steps up to help even if she insists she's ok . This is Atlas and Carlee's story . It's full of steamy kink and romance definitely a sexy tale . I highly recommend taking the time to read .

I normally avoid MC romance, they just don't do it for me. However, an MC romance that's also DD, and written by one of my favourite authors? I gotta read that!
So glad I did because I adored this story. The idea of these big, bad bikkies carrying around teddies in case a Little needs help - does it get anymore adorable?
I loved the interaction between Atlas and Carlee, and the way that Carlee tried so hard for so long on her own. There are obviously characters who have had or are going to have their own story, but they don't detract from this standalone, HEA, easy to read book. Loved it

Carlee has had a really tough upbringing and thanks to her bestie Remi she has grown up around the Shadowridge Guardians clubhouse. Life isn’t going well, but she’s doing her best to survive. She doesn’t need any help, especially from Atlas, Remi’s older brother. He has returned home and in one day has made everything even worse.
Atlas can’t believe how grown up Carlee is and how she is living. Why didn’t she get help from the club? He has to help her but he can’t get too close. She’s off limits and he’s leaving town again.

I can’t wait for the next book.

What a wonderful story! I loved everything about it! Atlas is such a lovable character especially with how he is with Carlee. She is a complete breath of fresh air and I enjoyed her sassiness when she talks to Atlas. They’ve known each other for years, but never acted on their attraction until Atlas came back to town. My heart is so full with these two! This was my first read by this author and definitely not my last. I’m really enjoying this series and can’t wait for more delightful stories!!

oh Atlas 🥰

There is something that soothes me to read about a Daddy claiming his Little one. Atlas and Carlee are no different. She has been through absolute hell and is in need of a safe place to lay her head. He is coming back to town after years away to help with a club problem. Both their problems have to do with the same evil man!
Atlas knows within hours of being around Carlee again (she’s his sisters best friend) that he cannot live without her and needs to make her, his! I absolutely loved the ending and that she kept her sassy side!

My Favorite

This is my favorite book of the series so far. I have read all three in the past two days and I have to say it very much loved Atlas and Carlee’s characters. Carly was fierce, determined, and incredibly sassy making for a wonderful combination. The series it’s definitely worth checking out. Being a multi author series allows for a bit of difference in writing style, while still keeping a common thread through all the stories. I’ve read books by all three authors in the past, and looking forward to the rest of the series.

It was past time to finally come home.

I've been anxious to buy this book and it didn't disappoint. Carlee has had such a tough life but always kept her innocent and sweet personality, and it was time for her to get her own real life "knight-in-shining-armour" Daddy. Atlas had a lot to prove to himself and he did, but it was time to come home to the club, his family, and find his own "forever little girl". Saving Carlee on the side of the road was karma for both of them. So good. I highly recommend this book.

Atlas is the sexiest accountant I’ve ever read.
Atlas grew up in the Shadowridge Guardians MC but left after college. He’s been climbing the corporate ladder in the city. He is needed by the MC to review their books after their treasurer disappeared. He didn’t count on running into his little sisters best friend stranded and in trouble.
This is a sweet and sexy tale of a protective man and the woman he’s always been drawn to. Guaranteed to leave you with a smile.

When It’s Right ~

I loved this story. There was a lot of things going on, some good and some not so good. I liked that some of the persons in this story, were also in the previous stories. I didn’t like that she had been hurt, and deeply too. When he found her, in need, their past rushed right to the surface. I liked that he knew right away that she was his. I liked that he knew her and knew what she needed. Loved their epilogue.

DNF at 2nd chapter.
This is what bothered me about the world building.
Atlas' parents, are Dom and Sub. Atlas is Dom. His sister is a Little. Her friend is a Little. The friend and Atlas get together.
Even though, this is fiction. This goes way out of scope, in my opinion, to be believable.
And also the story, just wasn't for me. Because the female has way to many problems. Atlas was way to demanding for my tastes.

In need of a good Daddy

Carlee is barely getting by after leaving her abusive boyfriend. She can't reach out for help because of his threats. Atlas finds her on the side of the road with her broken down car and convinces her to let him help her. He quickly realizes she's his Little. Sweet with just the right amount of dominance, he helps her find her self worth again while protecting her from harm.
