Law has been alone and hurting from the loss of his fiancée for years. He finally feels like it’s time to get some happiness back in his life. His first step is to join the Archangel's Warriors as a prospect, which is definitely not something you see every day from a police officer. As he navigates, learning more about the club, and works toward his patch, he meets for a second time a woman he met two years ago. Only this time, she grabs his attention and won’t let go.

Tonya has been through hell these past two years. She survives finding out her husband cheated on her, gets a divorce while pregnant with her third child, and has her entire world turned upside down. Thank God for her friend, Soleil. Moving back to Dublin Falls is for a lot of reasons, and being close to Soleil is only one of them.

Law’s not happy when he discovers Tonya has been mentally beaten down by her ex. He’s acting strange and it’s causing her to fear him. As Law gets to know her and protects her and her children, he realizes they’re what he’s been missing from his barren life.

He’ll have his hands full convincing her to let him in, to disbelieve the things her ex said, and to accept that he’s not in love with his dead fiancée. She’ll learn something about him she never expected but intrigues her in so many ways.

As Tonya and Law work together on growing their relationship, her life is endangered. The enemy isn’t who they expect. One of their pasts has come back to haunt them and Law will do whatever he has to do to eliminate the threat to his new family and his Valkyrie, even if it means breaking the law he serves.

An avid reader with a passion for romances that finally got the chance to write one of her own. The rest is history. Not what anyone thought for someone who has been a nurse and in healthcare management for years.

I sit writing as my two fur babies, my pugs Kujo and Khaos, impatiently wait for me to get done so they can lay on me as their human sofa!

My children are finally considered to be adults, so it's me, the hubby and the dogs.

I'm a iced tea drinking fiend who has insomnia, more ideas than I know what to do with, and a need to write them down.

Not too bad for a girl from rural Ohio in the foothills of Appalachia that grew up in a town of about 4000 people.

Years ago Law lost the love of his life, he has gone about working hard as a police officer but was still feeling like something was missing. He decides to prospect for the Dublin Falls Archangels Warriors MC. While not young like many of the prospects, he has put in his time but when he sees Tonya come into the clubhouse, his instincts tell him something is wrong. Tonya is best friends with another members Ol' lady and even though still a prospect, Law steps in. Finding out she is getting tormented by her ex while being the sole provider for their three kids infuriates him. Law is following his heart and it is telling him Tonya is the one for him.

Tonya is reluctant to have others help her, yes she knows she needs it but she is a proud woman. Law stepping in eases her but when one explosive kiss changes everything, Tonya is not sure what to do. Can she give her heart to another man or will she safe guard herself?

Different then the other books, I don't think it had that instant connection but there was reasons as to why it took time. I liked Law with Tonya, the kids were adorable. Law was everything I was hoping he would be.

It was nice to see Tonya come to the compound when she needed help, even if she forgot her friend wasn't there. Better was to see everyone jump to help her and her kids. I liked how Law was instantly pulled to Tonya, then smitten, then talking her into believing he was all in for her. There were some bumps along the way, due to both of their history, but they talked about it to get over things. I especially loved that Tonya got to see the family that the MC was and how she and her kids fit in and how a man should treat those he loves.

The drama towards the end was crazy! I loved how the MC came up with a plan to take care of things and make sure people that needed it were safe once and for all. It made the ending all the sweeter.

DNF. Sigh. Didn’t like Law, didn’t enjoy the plot. Didn’t make sense in places.

I struggled on with this book and I nearly finished it, but it’s boring, and a lot of it just doesn’t make sense. I didn’t like Law/Jake which is sad as I liked him in all the other books. The other thing I didn’t like is that he’s a prospect. He works a police officer for twelve hours. He’s shattered and comes back to be a prospect??? Erm….Then he covers for other police officers that have time off. So basically he can’t be a prospect as he’s never there!!! So Lance is the only prospect and he apparently does everything? Cleaning toilets, jobs for the Mc, manning the bar, manning the gate. 😂😂 It doesn’t make sense!

Jake/Law is a prospect for the Mc, when Soleil’s friend Tonya comes to the Mc with her three children in need of help. We met Tonya in Soleil and Falcon’s book. Tonya was married to Dan who raced with Soleil. He was cheating and abusive to Tonya. (Verbally.) Since they got divorced he had gone off the rails and he started to get aggressive with her.

Jake is instantly smitten, but he has to convince Tonya that she’s beautiful and he only wants her. As she’s very inexperienced with men, Jake says he’s taking it slowly with her. So why does he ask her to call him SIR in the bedroom straight away? Why does he tell her that he’s dominant in the bedroom and she’ll do everything he says? He tells an abused, lacking in confidence, over worked mother of three all of that, WHY??? 🤦‍♀️ I thought he was building her up? 😔

There’s a bit of danger, not really a lot that involves Jake’s past, and it’s over quickly. There’s a lot of sex, and the an*l sex is written badly, yet again! 😡

One last thing that annoyed me. Jake tells Lance (The other prospect.) that bunnies HAVE TO HAVE SEX WITH ANYONE WHO WANTS TO AND THEY ARE NOT ALLOWED TO REFUSE! That’s not true. Of course they’re allowed to refuse, otherwise it’s RAPE! What if they’re poorly? On their period? They’re not allowed, according to Jake to refuse!

Not sure why the author changed his character so much, but I didn’t like him.

A second chance at a love of a lifetime for two

Law's Valkyrie (Dublin Falls' Archangel Warriors MC Book 20) by Ciara St. James is a long awaited story for me! Law (aka Jake, a Dublin Falls police officer) has finally decided to join the Archangel Warriors. His backstory is sad and tragic and my happy ending loving heart couldn't wait for him to get a second chance at love!
Jake meets Tonya and her children just as she learns about her husband's infidelity and decides to leave him. Fast forward a bit and now Jake is officially a prospect when Tonya comes looking for help from her friends, Soleil and Falcon. One look, a few words spoken and Falcon's protective instincts surge and the next thing you know, Tonya and her children are claimed!
This book in the series lives up to it's predecessors; intense insta-love, swoon-worthy alpha protector, steamy chemistry, independent heroine, fiercely protective mom who is also in danger that adds some suspense into the mix as well.
Overall, this author has taken me on yet another wild and crazy ride, suspense and emotions included. Law will steal your heart though. Who can resist a tough biker who gets wrapped around children's little fingers? I fell just as hard as Tonya, but probably with a little less resistance! All is well in the end, another Archangel Warrior finds his true love with a ready-made family, a second chance at a love of a lifetime and a beautifully promising HEA.
I read an ARC of this book and voluntarily share my review.

When it's right, love heals all.

Jake thought that his chance at love and a family, died when Frankie was murdered.

Tonya believes she isn't worthy of love and that her body is nasty.

When Tonya's ex husband starts his crap all over again, she finally goes to her friend. Unknowingly bringing Jake's second chance to him.


Mental and emotional abuse is a real thing. In some ways it's worse than the physical. This story shows this perfectly. The struggle Tonya faces to retrain her brain to NOT believe all those words and actions of her ex. The wonderment and disbelief of Jake, at his second chance of love and family.

I would have liked to see Dan, Tonya's ex suffer more. Solely based on how he acted towards her and their kids, plus his words did so much damage. I feel he got off too lightly. Frankie's father and brothers? They got exactly what they deserved. The bunny, she disappeared and I hope we find out that she's not going to come back to haunt Lance and the club.

This is another great chapter of the Archangel Warriors. These books keep getting better with each new one. The characters flow together beautifully.
Law and Tonya have both had bad pasts. They bring each other back to life and become the strength to build a future together.
Law has a double life, police officer and prospect for the club, he makes it work. When he see’s Tonya and her kids, he starts to feel, and states that she is under his protection.
Tonya needs help, but is to proud to ask until its almost to late. She’s in trouble from her ex and from an outside enemy of Law’s. This just brings her closer to Law and she starts to feel for him like she never felt for her ex.
Law and the club take care of the problem, and then Law and Tonya plan their future, which is getting brighter all the time.

Good Read

Law’s Valkyrie is book 20 in the Dublin Falls’ Archangel’s Warriors MC series and sees prospect, Law fall for Tonya and her kids who were introduced in Hawk and Soleil’s story as a friend of Soleil. Threats come from different directions and Law proves he will do anything to protect those he claims as family.

I found this book intriguing as it had two characters who had suffered in their pasts who then found comfort in each other. This book had me in tears a few times while I was reading and I really felt for what the characters were going through. The story saw both of the characters pasts coming back to haunt them in some way and I loved how they came together to deal with it.

Overall, this was a good but emotional read and I enjoyed it. I would recommend giving it a read.

So Happy For Jake aka Law!

Meeting Jake in previous books & knowing his past heartbreak I just wanted him to find his HEA! And to be surprised he joined the DFAW MC was a bonus! He was meant to be apart of the DFAW MC Family!

I was also happy Soleil's best friend Tonya came back after all the heartbreak she & her kids went thru because of her ex.



This was a great story, lots of catching up on this ever growing MC, and learning more about the Alpha men & Strong Women they fall for is always fun. I truly enjoyed this HEA for 2 people who deserved to find love again! Even though they had a few intense moments and more heart break while as a new couple trying to figure out their new relationship I loved the ending bonus surprise!

Off to my next book happy reading!

Tremendously great story.

What a sweet sweet love story. And by no means does that sweet have to do with the steamy content because it is a hot book! The love story between Tonya and Law is sweet but even sweeter is the growin.relationship between Law and his soon to be 3 step kids. Since the introduction of Jake and Tonya into the series I was hoping they each would find their happily ever after. Knowing that they were to find it in each other made my heart swell. There is a little angst but also two big outside threats to the newly formed family. Ciara sure knows how to write a book that keeps you hooked from the first page to the last.

Finallllllllyyyyyyy!

Seems like we have been waiting for law forever! I love how the all the kids showed a little personality Dylan loving pizza and saying dad first! Dena sweet and shy until she needs to be outspoken and her style shining through! Daniel the protector and spokeskid for the family and making sure Law is right for them from the start
Tonya is so strong and resilient and the perfect old lady knowing when to ask questions and when to just let it ride, her emotional struggles after the shooting were so real!

I completely and totally fell in love with Law and Tonya! Law has been a character that I have admired for a while. If there is anyone who deserves to find true love, its him. Tonya desperately needs help and the Warriors are ready, willing and able to step in and do just that. What she didn't expect was Law to be front and center to be there for her and her kids. They are such a solid couple, they fit together so perfectly. There were a few obstacles to overcome but they were definitely up to the challenge. An incredible and beautiful romance!!

Law is my new man!!🔥

I've been waiting forever for Law's book, and it did not disappoint!! Tonya and Law both had their hearts broken, one with a cheating jerk and one with the love of their life murdered. I was so happy these two found each other they are what they needed to mend their broken hearts and find a love so great! Law was absolutely amazing with Tonya's kids. I love it when a man is able to treat children that aren't theirs like their own and love them so much!! This was another fantastic read from Ciara!!

Beautiful and Amazing

Again I've fallen in love with Ciaras's creation. I don't know where she comes with half the stuff she writes but she's truly a goddess!!!!
Law and Tonya are so very cute and special. I can't wait to see what happens next in Dublin Falls. I can't wait too how they cope with 5 kids and counting. Another set of twins to love on. Tonya is a wonderful mom and Law took 3 kids and loved them like they were his. He's truly an amazing guy!!!
Keep up the awesomeness Ciara!!!!

Second chances for Law and Valkyrie

This story packed a punch or two. You think you marry the man you are going to spend forever with and then he changes so you make sure you and your kids are safe. In comes coo/ prospect and your world is thrown for a loop. For Law he thought he had the one he always wanted but tragedy took her away. Can he be the man for a ready made family and keep them safe take a chance on their story you won’t be disappointed.

Hot !

This is Laws story. Law is a police officer who is also a prospect . After losing the LOVE of his life he was ok to live his life alone. That is until he meets falls in love with the abused mom of three small kids. The author once again knocks it out of the park with this hot hot love story. Please read the previous books in the series before you read this book so you can better enjoy the characters in this book. You won't regret it.

Pleasantly surprised with how this book went. I’m happy Law found his Happily ever after. After losing his fiancé Frankie the love of his life. He got a second chance at happiness & love with Tonya. Not only does he love her but he loves her three children like they’re his own.

Wasn’t expecting the prison scene but it was purely perfection. Glad Dan got the help he needed. I got my eyes on a prospect & not in a good way & a certain club bunnie. Getting bad vibes.

Very few authors are able to keep me up after bedtime but Ciara St James is one of a few that can. Tying past books and events seamlessly into each and every book is a gift that she manages in each book. I highly recommend that you start reading from book 1 to enjoy past references, but each book is self standing. 5*+

Law's Valkyrie'

Wow, just wow. Things went from exciting to scary real quick. Didn't know Jake could get as scary as the rest of the other bikers, but hey that's what finding your soul mate does to you. Tonya didn't think there was a happily ever after for her, until Law came along and bam, the drama begun.

awesome

Well Ciara st James does it again an awesome addition to the series I always hoped Law would join the Mc and find a HEA and he does with Tonya plenty of drama and steamy bits and it’s always good to catch up with the rest of the worriers and their allies can’t wait for the next

Reading about Law and Tonya and them finding their way. Was epically awesome! I cried and laughed. Amazing job again, Ms St. James. Tonya has real fears like all of us and Law is strong enough to push thru and make her listen

Long awaited and thoroughly enjoyable.

I had no idea Jake was so dominant and this really hiked up the spice factor.

Loved how the past came full circle and the final showdown was perfect. Great flow, amazing H/h and old favorites made for a five star read.
