Hawk
I am a nomad, moving between chapters of the Untamed Sons Motorcycle Club, trying to find a place to belong. I never wanted to settle down and make roots, not after what happened in my past, but then I meet Wren. She’s the sister of one of the Manchester brothers and she should be off limits for that reason, but what starts as a bit of fun quickly turns serious for me. I didn’t expect to fall for her or come to love her kids as if they were my own, but this little family is fast becoming my world. When their lives are threatened I do the only thing I I go to war with their enemies.
Wren
I never thought I would become the target of a gang, but they want to hurt Brewer and they plan on using me and my kids to do it. Hawk is a distraction I don’t need, but I get lost in him to forget the drama unfolding around me. It started as a one-time thing, a fling with no strings attached. I should have known better. I never expected him to come back for more, but now that Hawk has had me, he’s not willing to walk away. When I find myself in the crosshairs of dangerous men, I realise the only person who can protect me is the man I’m trying so hard to deny.

Oh. My. Days!! I think she broke me!! If you have been reading this series and read Brewer, you will understand why!
Some of that crosses with this one and THAT moment killed me again! Not going to lie, even though I thought I was prepared, I wasn't!
Any who, I digress! Hawk has been a nomad since shit went down at his chapter. But when he lands in Manchester and sets his eyes on Wren, a little of the darkness lifts. When it appears that old enemies are threatening this Chapter he will stop at nothing to help his brothers snuff them out. Aswell as protect Wren and her family.
Will Wren be enough to make this nomad put roots down again or will his past be too much?
There is so much more to this story but I am not giving spoilers!! But I will tell you this, buckle up Buttercups because this ride is going to get hella rough before it gets better!!
I am absolutely loving this series!!

"I've never begged for anything in my fucking life, Wren, but I'll get on my knees now and fucking beg for you. There ain't a world that makes sense with out in it."

4.25 stars!

Trigger warning: domestic abuse, sexual assault, murder, MC violence and gore


I was so intrigued when Jessica announced that the next books in the Untamed Sons Manchester series would be about the nomad Hawk as he has such an air of mystery surrounding him because of his chosen lifestyle. Both Wren and Hawk have traumatic pasts that they are trying to forget, so a no-strings attached affair seems as far as their relationship can go. However, one time is not enough, and they soon find themselves continuously pulled towards each other despite the baggage of guilt and shame each carries. I loved seeing how sweet Hawk was with Wren and her kids, while still having the ability to make her feel loved and sexy. The majority of the 'action' in this novel overlaps that of the previous story, BREWER, so it was a little repetitive, but I'm stoked to continue this series🖤

Tropes: instalust, scarred hero, heroine with tragic past, MC romance, no-strings attached, single mom, band of brothers, found family, STEAMY🔥

Single mum Wren isn’t looking for another relationship, she’s got the worst track record with men, and fears history might repeat itself.
However, when she meets nomad, Hawk on a rare visit to the Manchester chapter, aided with a bit of liquid courage, she gives into her instant attraction to him. What starts out as something causal, quickly turns into something more serious - taking both of them by surprise, and forcing them to overcome their initial reservations.

Hawk 🥺
I do love a he-falls-first story, and Hawk is just perfectly protective and vulnerable. It’s clear he adores Wren, and is willing to give her everything she deserves.

I won’t sugar-coat it, it hurt revisiting some of the traumatic events of the series so far, but these were necessary, as Hawk spans a slightly longer timeline. The way in which Hawk stirred my emotions just tells me, how invested I am in this series, and its characters.

This story has overlapping with events with the previous book, Brewer, so it may help to read that story first. We also meet Wren and Hawk there as well. There are some graphic moments, so please heed trigger warnings. Now onto the review!

Wren hasn’t had the best relationships so isn’t ready to dive into a new one when she meets Hawk. Yet we see she is willing to take a chance as long as her kids have stability. We see she can be a mama bear but is also fair and has a good relationship with her kids. She also gets along well with the old ladies and club brothers, and loves her own brother, Madden/Brewer.

Hawk turned into a nomad after an event with the Biringham chapter guts him. He has been moving between chapters, helping out whenever needed. Yet when he meets Wren, he finds a reason to stay. Hawk adapts well and has a good relationship with the Manchester club. He also gets along well with Wren’s kids, and while he does slip at one point early on, he vows not to hurt Wren.

The two of them have an instant attraction and while they at first didn't want things to go further, things shift and they find that they gravitate towards to other no matter what. They create their own family unit with Wren’s kids and we see how they care for each other as the story progresses. They might have some trouble, but they communicate with and respect each other and will make things work. Seeing the bond with and between Wren’s kids also made this family even more solid.

Along with this couple, we see the other club brothers and their old ladies as well as appearances from Ravage and Sasha of the main chapter helping out as they try to defend against the war with the Pioneers. There is tension and suspense as events unfold, and while we do get a HEA for our main couple, the plot continues to thicken as the war continues.

Overall this was an exciting read and I cannot wait to see what happens next.

HAWK is the fifth instalment in Jessica Ames’ contemporary, adult UNTAMED SONS MC: MANCHESTER dark, erotic MC series. This is nomad Hawk aka Owen, and thirty-five year old, single mother Serenity aka Wren Kelley’s story line. HAWK can be read as a stand alone but I recommend reading book four BREWER for back story and cohesion. Some of the events of HAWK cross over with, and run parallel to some of the events of book four BREWER. Wren is the sister of Madden ‘Brewer’ Kelley BREWER #4.

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

Told from dual first person perspectives (Wren and Hawk) HAWK follows in the wake of the rescue of our story line heroine. Years earlier, Serenity now known as Wren, survived several beatings at the hands of her abusive ex, and found herself, along with her four children, healing and thriving in the company of the Untamed Sons MC, a club in which her brother Madden aka Brewer was a member. With the support of the MC, Wren and her children found a family and a home but for the mysterious nomad Owen aka Hawk, who would come in and out of our heroine’s life. Neither Hawk nor Wren were looking for anything permanent until threats against the MC became deadly and dark. Claiming Wren as his own, and the children she loved, Hawk would become guardian and protector in the face of death threats and revenge against the Untamed Sons MC. Murder and torture, revenge and madness would force Wren and her children into seclusion with the MC, but at every turn someone always found a way to get close and threatening. What ensues is the building relationship between Wren and Hawk, and the potential fall-out as Wren and her children become pawns in a dangerous game of revenge.

The relationship between Wren and Hawk begins a ‘friends with benefits’ as neither one is wiling to commit to something more. Hawk is a nomad, with no place to call home but her is quickly falling for the woman who has stolen his heart. Wren has been through H*ll and back, and refuses to place herself, her heart and her children in the direct line fire but Wren knows that Hawk is the man to prove she is worthy of love, a love she will need to move on from the past. The $ex scenes are passionate and provocative.

There is a large ensemble cast of colorful and dangerous secondary and supporting characters including many of the previous story line characters and couples, most of whom will play a large part in the lives of Wren and her children including Madden ‘Brewer’ Kelley who is struggling with his own demons protecting the woman he loves. The requisite evil has many faces.

HAWK is a story of betrayal and revenge, power and control, murder, protection and retribution, acceptance and love. The fast paced premise is dark, gritty, dramatic and intense; the romance is seductive and energetic; the characters are desperate, dynamic and determined.

This is the fifth book in the Untamed Sons’ Manchester MC series and centred around Hawk (Owen) and (Serenity) Wren Kelly a single mother of four and younger sister to Brewer. Although Hawk can be read as a stand-alone I would recommend that you at least read Brewer as a lot of the action in this book is a direct result/ consequence of the events in Brewer. This is an MC book which means there are some very explicit scenes of violence as well spicy content, the trigger warnings are there for a reason.

Whist (Madden) Brewer has done all he can to care for and protect his sister Wrens’ romantic relationships have had a catastrophic impact on all the people she loves. Wren feels a lot of guilt that Brewer ended up in jail protecting her and her actions have had consequences on not only her loved ones but on the MC as well. Her family is everything Wrens’ four children are the light of her life, can she be content with her lot. Wren does not want to jump into another relationship and cause more hurt and drama but there is no denying the attraction she has to Hawk. He makes her feel alive, can she really just have a no strings good time with Hawk….

Hawk is a Nomad, still a part of the Untamed Sons but crashing at different Chapters helping out wherever he’s needed. Hawk is haunted by the events at the Birmingham Chapter, the losses he dealt with have had a profound effect on him as has the lack of support from his Chapter President.

When he meets Wren for the first time in a long time he wants to put down roots. Be a part of her life and be a father figure to her children. He’s all in but both are battling with their pasts they do have a couple of mishaps but they’re very much a team. It was refreshing that after some initial problems they did actually talk to each other and were respectful of each others past and problems. They looked good as a family. When trouble comes knocking there is absolutely nothing that Hawk would not do to protect those he loves. This was a thrilling read full of action, camaraderie, brotherhood and love. The Untamed Sons Manchester are facing an unprecedented threat but they are a team who will face any challenges head on and I can’t wait to see what happens next.

This is Hawk and Wren's story. Hawk is a nomad amongst the Untamed Sons. The beginning of the story explains what led Hawk to leave his main chapter to roam as a nomad. While visiting the Manchester chapter, Hawk sets his sights on Wren.

Wren is the sister of Brewer, a brother in the Manchester chapter. Wren has never had the best luck in relationships. Her first husband was abusive, and her next relationship ended up leaving her. The 2nd one comes in and out when he feels like it. She had two kids with each relationship, leaving her as a single mother with 4 kids. Thinking she will never be in a relationship again, she sets her sights on a one stand with Hawk. She is only human. A woman has needs!

What started as a one night stand ends up with Hawk making frequent visits to the Manchester clubhouse, more hookups and the realization that this may mean more. However, gaining Wren's trust is not easy for Hawk and he ends up screwing up before anything can get started.

It takes a dangerous situation to bring them back together and realize that life is too short to not let this happen. But when the danger comes knocking at their front door, Hawk will do everything in his power to keep Wren and her kids safe.

This story is intense from the beginning. If you have read the other books in this series, you kinda know what is going to happen. I love this different perspective of everything, and to see what happened next. The ending of this book prepares us for what... or should I say, who comes next. I look forward to the next book!.

Hawk and Wren

We met Wren in Brewer's book. She is his baby sister, and she and her kids were the only things he cared about besides his club family. She is a single mom of 4 kids, fathered by two worthless men. Wren has never had a man in her life who gave a dämṅ about her besides her brother Madden/Brewer. So when she meets Hawk, the tall, handsome, mysterious Nomad who just arrived at the Manchester clubhouse, she is besides herself. Especially when things between them heat up and she finds herself being loved and cared for by a man who by all standards would be considered a bad man. But he's been nothing but good to her and her kids. Yet she's still scared to let him into her heart fully for fear of being hurt again by a man she cares deeply about. However Hawk does everything in his power to make her see that he's in it for the long-run and she eventually let's their feelings for each other develop. Hawk left his original club because of a horrible tragedy, he never imagined that he would find a good woman and a ready-made family during a pitstop at the Manchester Untamed Sons clubhouse. But once he realizes the good thing he's found he's determined to hold onto it with both hands. There was so much angst, emotion, and heartbreak, in this book. We had a horrible loss that the club will never fully recover from and an ongoing wäŕ with the Dudley Pioneers that has cost The Sons so much. I just hope that in the upcoming books things get resolved and they are avenged. I can't wait to see what happens next with Rage's story!

Such a heart-pounding, suspenseful edition to this series!!

As a fan of this author and her addictive MC series, I eagerly awaited the continuation of this chapter's fight against the Pioneers. And boy, did I get one!! These characters are so easy to love and connect with!!

Wren (Serenity) is pulled into this club’s troubles because of her brother, Brewer and Ophelia. And this is why it is critical to read this series in order!! She becomes more than just the club’s responsibly when Hawk takes notice of her.

Hawk (Owen) has been a Nomad since things went south with the Birmingham chapter, the loss of Boxer, and the tragedy in chapter 2!! My heart broke for him! He finds the Manchester club has a huge war brewing with the Pioneers (who were responsible for Boxer's death) and meeting Wren gives him even more reason to stick around.

All the drama, violence, bloodshed, passions, and supportive MC brotherhood that we love in this author's works are engaging and addictive in this story. I could not stop reading!! Plan accordingly. 😉 My emotions were all over the place! I absolutely loved Wren and Hawk's dynamic and their chemistry.

This is a great series, that ties into the original Untamed Sons MC chapter (beginning with Ravage) that I encourage you to read as well.

I cannot wait to see how this storyline is continued and resolved. It's soo good!

Ms. Ames Untamed Sons series is one of my favorites. She doesn’t pull punches when she tells a story. By that I mean, she doesn’t spare the feelings of her characters or her readers, if an action needs to happen, trust me it happens. You get a full on action packed, suspenseful read with a gambit of emotions and a storyline you won’t soon forget.

Hawk takes up right after Brewer leaves off. (You don’t have to read Brewer first but I HIGHLY recommend it). Hawk is a nomad. While he loves the Sons and being a part of their brotherhood, things went down in his old chapter that he just couldn’t get on board with. So he now travels the roads and spends time in the various Son’s chapters when he’s needed or wants to take it easy. The last thing he ever expected was to fall for one of his club brothers' sister, Wren. Let alone a woman with 4 kids. But Wren doesn’t seem to feel the same. Oh their connection is explosive, but she’s been hurt by the men in her past and she definitely doesn't want another one, at least not full time. But when her brother, Brewer, wrongs the wrong people she ends up turning to Hawk. But will he keep her safe after all the hurt she’s caused? Will Wren be enough to settle down this nomad for good?

Excellent read. I can’t recommend it enough.

Hawk is Nomad, not through choice but necessity, Birmingham chapter let him and others down. Wren has had crap luck in men except her brother, the only one to stand by her and up for her but then she meets Hawk. With a war going on around the club and all its family it's not an ideal setting for romance, threats and violence surround them. This story is intense, graphic violence and it's tough and raw. Passionate and exciting, suspense and pain. Through it all a woman and her kids finally find someone who will do anything he can to keep them alive and safe. It broke my heart at times but I really loved these two coming together and becoming a family, I hope they get a little reprieve to enjoy it and settle for a while before the next round starts. MC in its full glory, they might not be legal but the best ones do have rules, do not target women and children, when that's broken then expect the full wrath. I thoroughly enjoyed it, great characters and nasty ones so the love/hate keeps readers wanting the good guys to win out. Strong women who stand by their men no matter what, fight for their lives if they have too and for their kids. I have nothing but praise for this well written fast paced book, I just can't find the words to adequately get that across.

I have to say Jessica Ames really brought the thunder with this story, and the first couple of chapters nearly did me in completely. Hawk has been a nomad for a cool minute due to things in his past, and let me tell you, I completely understood the why of it all as he has serious demons. Wren has had her own share of things in her past that really did a number on her, but these days, she's living a much better life with her kids, and her brother's MC but she's still very gun shy. Hawk & Wren were drawn to each other from the moment they saw each other, but neither wanted anything like a relationship, and yet, it didn't take much time before feelings were caught. I loved the fact that she was the holdout, not him, so he really had to make her see that he wanted to give them a real shot together, and lawd knows the heat was on point. On top of this new journey for both of them, there's another group who wants to harm them all, and if women & kids get caught in the crossfire, well, that evil group just didn't GAF! It made for serious twists, and even some action to get the heart racing, and it's still not over so yeah, I'm going to be waiting impatiently how it's all wrapped up! HIGHLY HIGHLY HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

Pleasant Surprise

After reading a few MC romance books, they all start to feel the same. UK based MC books have a different flow, but amazingly, this book is the right balance. Love it when a plan comes together

👏🏾 Wren is 35 twice divorced mother of 4. Each marriage was to an abusive partner, and she's done with love, but her vajajay was gathering cobwebs, and she saw Hawk across the club bar and its lust at first sight

👏🏾Hawk is a lone wolf Nomad doing his own thing, but something about the philly staring at him across the room catches his eye.

🥰 Hawk falls first. The steam was a little spicy, if not vanilla it was to the point. Could smex scenes have been longer, more explicit, and hit harder....why yes, but it's all good because the plot pulls you in

I appreciated how this author built up the overarching villains and Big Bad. I enjoyed each and every single character. The story just flowed quickly, and the action paced kept me on my toes. Most of all, each character had a distinct voice and made an impact. Most of all, I was shocked with the surprising death and violence.

Looks like I found a new MC series to fall into.

I am a nomad, moving between chapters of the Untamed Sons Motorcycle Club, trying to find a place to belong. I never wanted to settle down and make roots, not after what happened in my past, but then I meet Wren. She’s the sister of one of the Manchester brothers and she should be off limits for that reason,

I never thought I would become the target of a gang, but they want to hurt Brewer and they plan on using me and my kids to do it. Hawk is a distraction I don’t need, but I get lost in him to forget the drama unfolding around me. It started as a one-time thing, a fling with no strings attached. I should have known better.

Oh my gosh where do i start with this review all I can say is that this book was a fabulous book from start to finish. I was so sucked in I nearly forgot to eat and I had a late night as well. The characters are amazing and really pulls the story together. Jessica Ames is a fantastic author and all her books are phenomenal reads and anyone who loves Motorcycle romance definitely should read Jessica's books.

Hawk is a nomad. Having lost faith in his chapter's ability to protect their own and avenge the deaths of those killed by the Pioneers, a ruthless chapter who will stop at nothing to get what they want, Hawk leaves but as a nomad pops in to the Manchester chapter from time to time. It is there he spots Wren. Wren is a survivor. Having suffered domestic abuse at the hands of her first husband and her second husband deciding he didn't want to be a father or a husband, she no longer wants a relationship. When she sees Hawk all she wants is one night. When both start to develop feelings for each other they will both have to decide what to do next and with the Pioneers attacking them and then killing one of their own, it looks like war is about to start with Wren and her children at risk. Full of action this book will have you gripped from beginning to end. This is the first book I have read by this author and I look forward to reading the rest of this series.

Oh my. Hawk was everything! He was the perfect MMC for me. Obsessed, possessive, protective, growly, sexy. Yes, please! He'd do anything for Wren. And poor Wren, with her past I understand her fear of being with someone again. She hasn't had a good relationship. But the more she's with Hawk the more her nerves are settled. She feels loved and completely safe with him. Hawk was swoonworthy. A couple swoony quotes from him:

"Ain’t nothing going to stop me from coming back to you.”

"I’ve never begged for anything in my f***ing life, Wren, but I’ll get on my knees now and f***ing beg for you. There ain’t a world that makes sense without you in it.”

See. He's perfect. Their chemistry was explosive. There was also lots of sadness and danger in this. I missed Brewer's book, idk how 😭, but this one was fantastic.

Hawk & Wren

He went Nomad after his disappointment with his former president who didn't handle an enemy. He came to different chapters for short visits. He had no interest in a relationship--until he saw Wren. Yes, saw her. It didn't take more to know his feelings were different. Still, he fought it. She said never again. Her history taught her brother was the only man she could trust--until she spent time with Hawk.

This book is filled with danger, action, steam, and so much more. As a single mom, Wren had to protect her kids. It isn't easy and with the danger from another club she had even more trouble.

I loved the story and the two together, especially the way Hawk worked to earn Wren's and her kid's trust. You'll find so many emotions, fear, danger, steam, trust, love, and even more. Don't, miss this. It will draw and keep your attention from beginning to end.

This is the 5th book in the Manchester Chapter Untamed Sons MC featuring the action-packed, page-turning, raw,intense romance between Hawk and Wren. Hawk is a nomad after being let down by the Birmingham Chapter and ever since the fiasco with Crank his old president he's been set on getting revenge for Jade and his brothers. Wren has never had much luck when it comes to men except for her brother Madden who has always stood by her and protected her he saved her from her ex. When Hawk and Wren meet they're instantly attracted to each other and think that a one-night stand will take care of their attraction but they're both just fooling themselves that it's casual. I don't want to say anymore and ruin it for anyone else with spoilers. You really need to read this action-packed, page-turning, raw,intense romance to see what happens. I would recommend reading this book.

I love all of the Untamed Sons, both the original series, the Manchester chapter and the Fraser Crime Syndicate. Jessica Ames has created this great universe full of dangerous men and strong women. Though each of the books can be read as stand alones I highly recommend you read them all because there is an overarching story that runs throughout the three series.

The events of Hawk overlap Brewer, so out of all of the series I would say you should definitely read Brewer first to get the full scope of the current situation. Hawk is a nomad who rolls into Manchester when things are going down with a rival gang. Hawk meets Wren, Brewers sister, and they have some amazing chemistry. Wren has had a rough go of it, she has been abused, abandoned and all she wants is to take care of her kids. Hawk is exactly what she needs to begin living again and Wren is exactly what Hawk needs to find roots. I loved this book.

I love this series but I have to say this book was rather unexpected for me.

Adding together the facts as I thought I knew them did not lead me to what this book delivered in the slightest.

Hawk is down for whatever he has with Wren, no second guessing, no doubts and I have to love me a man who knows what he is walking into (4 kids) and willingly takes in that and calls it family from day 1. Total heartbreaker for me.

I absolutely respect Wren…a total mum to the core she has her families well-being front and centre and so despite the fact Hawk gives her heart flutters, she is cautious with flashing neon signs around her.

I love how this story played out and am looking forward to more in this most excellent MC series.

This is Hawk and Wren’s story. I remember both from Brewer. She’s Brewer’s sister, the one with 4 kids, and he’s the nomad, who doesn’t belong to any specific club, but travels from one to another. I find Wren much more interesting and as a strong character, as opposed to what I gathered from the previous book where we only learned a bit about her. I really like Hawk, how caring and protective he can be, as well as such a good father figure.

There’s so much going on in this book, parallel to what happens in Brewer’s book. It’s like seeing a different point of view of what happened back then, seeing another side of things without being repetitive. It’s like the author filled some gaps, or offered more information on what happened back then. I loved it!

I want Hawn and Wren to have a HEA and a larger family! I hope to learn more about them in another book.

When a one night stand turns into something more. Both Wren and Hawk agreed to one night and no strings, but when the chemistry hits just right between these two things end up getting heated for a month. Wren is a single mom that’s over being in a bad relationship hence just wanting to have a bit of fun. Hawk being a nomad after losing a brother and his brother’s daughter, decided to close off his feelings until it gets sparked by Wren. I love the relationship between this couple and the protectiveness that Hawk is willing to go for his new family. As the club is still fighting off their enemies from the previous story, it made me eager to see more characters that haven’t had a story yet as things are just getting great.

Hawk was really good. I couldn’t put it down. Everything Wren went, the horrible abuse - both physically and mentally at her ex husband was heart wrenching. He was just vile. Then to move on and marry again and go through another bad relationship, you really feel for her and her kids.
Hawk was amazing, how he stepped into her life and accepted her kids, and vowed to her that he’d never put her through that hell again, my heart was melting!
Both Wren and Hawk have fears from their past, they’re different, but also keep them from wanting to allow people in. But after spending time together, it’s obvious these two have a connection and are what’s best for each other.
This book was really good, the action is good and keeps you invested, and the spice is hot! I’m eager for the next book in the series!

We met Wren in the previous book and we quickly learned she hasn't had an easy life. Going through life alone with just her kids seems to be the safest way. Then she meets Hawk and is very tempted to just have a little fun, no strings. Hawk is immediately into her and her kids, he can see himself finally setting down roots. Things are tense for the club, their enemies are violent and ruthless. They will stop at nothing to eliminate the Untamed Sons. Hawk is determined to protect Wren and her kids, he needs them as much as they need him. This was a tough read, I knew it would be. Wren, such a sweetheart, has survived so much. She deserves a devoted man like Hawk. I adore Hawk, he is a perfect addition to the Manchester chapter! This series is intense, dark and dangerous. I have no idea where its going to take us and I can't wait to find out!

Wren has never really had good luck with men, he first husband beat her badly. Her second husband, just left one day, now she is a single mother of four. She does not want another man but the one across the room is making want to get lost in him, just for one night.

Hawk has been nomad ever since he was not able to protect his friend's daughter like he promised. He does not want to settle down, he is happy to moved from chapters of the Untamed Sons MC. He never expected a trip to Manchester would change his life, he met Wren. What started out as fun times, starts to be something more.

This was a great addition to the series, Hawk is better man than the two that came before him, willing do what is needed to keep them safe.

This is the fifth book in this amazing series, and this is Hawk and Wren’s journey. Hawk is a nomad seeking a place to belong, and he is protective and vulnerable, but the attraction he has for Wren, who is a single mom and sister of one of the brothers, and the last thing she wants in another relationship after her past track record. Wren and little family soon becomes Hawk’s world, and he adores them. This is a beautifully written story which is an emotional roller coaster, which is action-packed, with drama, danger, suspense, intrigue, romance, family, friendships, twists, trauma, trust, witty banter, humor, engaging and realistic characters, and love, which leads to an entertaining, haunting, and steamy addictive page turner.
I look forward to reading more from this talented author whose work I highly recommend.

A very intriguing and exciting story. Hawk is a nomad ever since people he loved were taken from him and his Prez did nothing to get retribution. He roams from MC to MC helping those who need an extra hand. Then he sees Wren at the Manchester chapter and he wants her. Wren’s past with men has left her cautious and careful. One husband was abusive and the second left after things got difficult. She does t need a man who won’t stay. As their bond grows stronger, she pushes Hawk away because she’s afraid he will leave just like the others. When the Pioneers MC come after her brother, the club goes on lockdown and Hawk is determined to keep Wren and her children safe. An outstanding storyline with plenty of danger, suspense, passion and healing for both Hawk and Wren. I loved this book.

Hawk is book five of the Manchester Chapter Untamed Sons MC Series.

I loved the relationship between Hawk and Wren. He was a nomad who was willing to put down roots to be able to be with Wren. I loved that about him. He really wanted to make something with her and her children.

Wren was hesitant to be with anyone because of her past history with her relationships. She wanted fun and no strings, but the more time she spent with Hawk, the more invested she got.

There is some drama with the club which causes some intense moments between the couple. He thinks she won't accept him fully for who he is, but he should know that Wren is a good person and wouldn't think badly of him.

I loved the chemistry between these two and how great he was with her kids. He treated them like they were his own.
