Unbeautifully

Undeniable #2

by Madeline Sheehan

Warning: This is not a story about fate or destiny. This is a story about pain, sorrow, and suffering. This is an impulsive whirlwind romance between two lovers that are not meant to be together. Theirs is not a world with sunshine and roses. Instead, their love blossoms in a secret world full of crime, violence, and death. Their story is about what can be born from nightmares.

Danielle “Danny” West is the daughter of Deuce West, President of the Hell’s Horsemen Motorcycle Club. A sweet and beautiful girl, she loses her way, searching for things that are always out of her reach. Erik “Ripper” Jacobs is the Sergeant of Arms in the Hell’s Horsemen. Once a man who always had a smile on his face, his life takes a turn for the worst when a tragedy befalls him, leaving him scarred and broken. During a midsummer night, Danny and Ripper’s paths cross, forever changing their lives. Hastily, their lust turns to love until another tragedy forces them apart. On a journey that is marred with ugliness and chaos, Danny and Ripper must discover if their unforeseen connection can find the beauty in their world.

This is Danny and Ripper’s story.

Everything has beauty. Even the ugly. Especially the ugly.
Because without ugly, there would be no beauty.

Sweet Lord Jesus, new realms of awesomeness!!!



This is Danny and Ripper’s story:



Please take a moment and let that sink in...
...
...
...

Now close your eyes and imagine Deuce:



If you opened your eyes, say a little pray for Ripper's sorry ass or balls or any other part of his anatomy that he may need to function properly.



You’ll probably want to know some things before you start reading this (yeah, I'm pretty sure I'm talking to the one person who didn't get the chance to devour this book, yet):
1. Go inform your neighbors that they don't need to call the police or an ambulance if they hear you kicking and screaming, laughing like a hyena or crying like a lunatic.
2. Grab a swear jar, you're going to be rich.
3. Reel it in (I dare you to).
4. Do not go bat-shit crazy 'cause you need the next book "NOW!", we all do (I know, it sucks major balls)
5. Re-read point 3.
6. If you’re still feeling hormonal because you devoured Unbeautifully in less than 24 hours and now you have to wait some more for Unattainable, repeat after me: “I will have Shandor in a month!”
7. If you don’t know who Shandor is, well… grab me by the handle and call me Pan (it’s a Romanian saying for: “Are you shitting me?”)
8. Did I make you curious? GOOD!
9. Make sure you have an electrical tooth brush available.
10. Re-read point 3 or leave a message to Madeline cursing thanking her for ruining you for eternity and beyond. BTW: Did I tell you, Madeline, how much I hate love you!!!

In three words I can sum up everything I’ve learned about life: it goes on.
—Robert Frost

Let yourself sucked in to a hasty, impetuous, disastrous story that brings the ugly with the beauty, the scarred and broken with the sweet and delicate. As always, Madeline breaks the rules of a picture-perfect romance.

WARNING: There are no rules when it comes to love.

Undeniable left us wanting MORE. Thank fuck we got it and we'll keep getting it. Undeniable didn't quite finish with "...and they lived happily ever after", because lets face it, shit happened and the name's Frankie.
We all know by now what Frankie did to Ripper. In Unbeautifully we get a glimpse of what really went down and how Ripper got away with a shattered exterior but still much alive, unfortunately that wasn't his plan. He wanted to die. Yeah, things don't work that way, and love doesn't happen like it really should.
Here is when Danny comes into the picture. She may seem preoccupied with appearances and always rambling on and on about music and clothes and some asshat named Chan-a-something Tater Tots. , but her heart knows the difference from beauty and perfection.

These 2+tequila+skinny-dipping=TROUBLE



And me???



Was it just me or was UnB hotter than UnD??!! Maybe I was too shocked while reading UnD and didn't savor the hotness of it. But now in UnB I was like: "Oh, you're in love with a man 14 years older than you. Bitch, try 18 years older. Oh, you think Mama Vi is scary, does Frankie ring your crazy bell?!" So... yeah, I was more aware of how many times I was crackin' moisties.

Don't get me wrong, I was scared shitless of Ripper, that man was over 6 feet tall, bulged all over, missing an eye, scarred like he just survived a shark attack and had an attitude that you wouldn't want to fuck around with. But then he peed girly style and all was right in the world again.

...he, a self-proclaimed drunken, gun-wielding, biker extraordinaire, plopped his ass down on the seat, tucked his dick between his legs, and pissed like a girl.

This book doesn't lack in fucked-upness, it's the same style we grew accustomed to and that we absolutely and undeniably LOVE!!! Not going to say more, because you have to be Frankie-crazy to not want to read this book.
I was so happy that we got a little more Deuce (lets face it, he's the big Kahuna and he can't be left out). But who's making himself noticed more and more in this book? Yep. It's the little Kahuna himself, Cage (my new favorite slut).

“Little fucker is almost as big as the big fucker.”

Because there's no denying that Madeline Sheehan is the mother queen of all teasing, we get a little Cage here, then there and of course some more over there, too. Don't you dare expect me to reel it in and not go bananas after the next book, it's all your fault.

That being said, I just want to tell Madeline that she's the SHIT. I LOVE YOU!!! Please continue making hearts stop, bitches hate, jaws drop and panties wet.

"We existed in a world where words weren't needed. Everything I needed to know, everything he was feeling, I could already see on his face and feel through his touch."

Love is a feeling, a real, raw, and unscripted emotion so sensationally pure, unable to dull even under the strain of a world against it, strong enough to heal the broken and warm even the coldest of hearts.
Innate.
Unavoidable.
Undeniable.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Madeline Sheehan has written another FAN-fucking-TASTIC, EMOTIONAL, GUT WRENCHING, SOUL SHATTERING, HEARTWARMING, UNPUTDOWNABLE story that I absolutely LOVED reading.

Just like Undeniable, Unbeautifully is a real, raw, gritty and intense story. From the moment I started reading it, it sucked me in and kept me up until the wee hours of the morning because I simply could not stop reading it!! It wasn't always an easy story to read; some parts of it were downright hurtful and messy, but in the end the beauty of it far outweighed the ugly and to me, that's all that truly matters. Unbeautifully is the kind of story that will unavoidably, undeniably keep you glued to the pages until you've reached the final page and everything finally clicks into place in the most beautiful way possible.


Unbeautifully is the story of Danny and Ripper...

Ours was the furthest thing from a picture-perfect romance; it was more of a car crash, a metal-bending, blood-spattered disaster that left no survivors, only bad memories and heartache.
But it was ours.
And because it was ours...I wouldn't chance a thing.

The story picks up right where the events of Undeniable ended. Danielle "Danny" West, Deuce's oldest daughter is now twenty one years old and she's the girlfriend of one of her dad's club's members, ZZ. At a summer barbeque ZZ proposes to her but right before she's about to answer him, the story shifts back to three years earlier. After that, we follow the events that led up to that moment, a moment in which Danny will have to chose between ZZ and Ripper...

Danny --


As an eighteen year old girl, Danny feels lonely and miserable after everything that happened with her family. Her mother left her at an early age and her father Deuce, although he loves her and would do anything to protect his children, isn't exactly a role model kind of dad which pretty much left her and her brother Cage to grow up by themselves. Al these events have made her into a strong, mature young woman, but at the same time she's also struggling to find out what to do with her life. On her prom night, Ripper was sent to pick her up from the dance, but on their way home, they make a stop at a lake, because Danny doesn't want to go home yet and one thing leads to another...

"Danny," he growled, refusing to look at her. "You keep touchin' me like that and I ain't gonna be responsible for what I end up doin'."

And then he heard it. Five little words that shut off his brain and spurred his body into action. "Ripper," she whispered against his ruined skin. "Make my prom night perfect."

She wanted him to make her prom night special and just for once, forget about all the misery in her life, and that's exactly what he did. They spend one blissful night together and assumed they'll be able to pretend nothing happened the next day. But something changed that night for the both of them, it was a night neither of them is able to get out of their head and as the weeks grow, they realize they've developed feeling for each other.

"Whatever he wanted me to do, whatever he wanted to do to me, I already knew the answer would be a thousand times yes. I was at a point of no return."

Ripper --


Ripper is a man with a broken past. After batshit crazy Frankie got his hands on him, he's ruined on the outside. He has so many scars on the outside, and it feels like his ruined on the outside too. Other than the Club, his life doesn't seem to have much meaning. Until he meets the beautiful, young, vibrant Danielle...

"All scars tell a story, beautiful girl," he said. "And mine," he said softly, grabbing my hand, trailing my palm across his cheek and then his chest. "Tell the story of how I found you."

Ripper's always had his fair share of women, but he's never truly cared about a woman before, never been in love, until Danny...

"But Danny was different.
A game changer."

Danny finally makes him see that although he's all scarred up on the outside; those scars don't make him any less beautiful. Shee makes him feel alive and determined to truly start living again after feeling miserable and rather wishing he were dead for a very long time. He realizes he loved Danny, but their love is unconventional. They're not "supposed to" be together. Ripper is fourteen years older than Danny and a member of her father's motorcycle club and both of them *know* Deuce will never allow them to be together... They have to sneak around and when things start to get out of hand, their affair become messy and highly emotional.

But is that enough to keep them apart, or will their love prevail and make them strong enough to fight the odds and fight for what they both deserve?

"It didn't make any sense. Did love make sense? Oh god, it was all too much. But like most things involving Ripper and me, they were always impulsive, messy, and confusing, giving new meaning to the term whirlwind romance."

Aside from Danny and Ripper's story we also get a background story with scenes from Eva and Deuce's POV. After what happened with Frankie, the guy who singlehandedly ruined a dozen people's lives, both of them are still struggling to go back to the way things were before Frankie. I loved the fact that Eva and Deuce still had a big part in this story and that they eventually get the HEA they both deserve so much. At the same time we also get a lot of background stories on the other bikers and their crazy-ass lives like the one of Cox and Kami (still going at each other like crazy), Jase and Dorothy (who have a tragic history of their own) and Cage (who's kind of a man whore but also a hottie and whose story I'm already anxiously awaiting!) ;-)

Madeline Sheehan writes epic, badass biker stories like nobody else and I can't wait to read the rest of this magnificent series!

But of course the main focus in Unbeautifully is still on Ripper and Danny and their tragically beautiful and heartfelt story full of pain, misery and suffering but in the end it all comes down to one thing: LOVE.

"Ripper," I whispered, clinging to his neck as he carried me from the bathroom into his bedroom. " I think I love you."

"Yeah, baby," he whispered, sliding back inside of me. "Ain't no other explanation for what a girl like you is doin' in bed with a man like me."

"Baby," he said gruggly. "Man like me got no business with a girl like you. You're nothin' but fuckin' beauty and I'm a whole lot of fuckin' ugly who's already halfway to hell."

But he was wrong.
Everything has beauty. Even the ugly. Especially the ugly.
Because without the ugly, there would be no beauty.
Because without beauty, we would not survive our pain, our sorrow, and our suffering.

"You may not be beautiful the way you were before," I whispered, cupping his ruined cheek. "But you're still beautiful. To me."

If you haven't read this series yet, READ IT and fall in love with these beautifully flawed characters Madeline Sheehan has created and that will stay with me for a very long time. Unbeautifully is a more than worthy sequel to the epic story of Undeniable and personally, I loved it even more than Eva and Deuce's story. ♥

5 BEAUTIFULLY CAPTIVATING STARS.

[Baba · Rating 4 out of 5]

3.5 stars.****Review completed May 16, 2013
 

 

…we came together in a frantic rush of skin and limbs, my magnitude of need an all-consuming burn that I needed…needed…god, I just needed all of him, touching all of me.
 
"Baby," he said. "Listen to me. I ain't beautiful, you are. You're so damn beautiful you got it spillin' out all over the place, blinding' you into thinkin' I'm beautiful when I ain't. Farthest thing from it."

 

 

"Meant what I said," he said, dropping his head, pressing his forehead to mine. "You're with me, you're with only me. I ain't gonna share you with some teenage asshat whose dick ain't full grown."
 
"No, baby, I'm not. I'm tryin' to figure out whether I'm gonna slap some sense into you or fuck the shit outta you."
 
…we came together in a frantic rush of skin and limbs, my magnitude of need an all-consuming burn that I needed…needed…god, I just needed all of him, touching all of me.

 

 

"Ripper," I whispered, clinging to his neck as he carried me from the bathroom into his bedroom. "I think I love you."
Laying me gently down on his bed, he climbed over top of me and covered me with his body.
"Yeah, baby," he whispered, sliding back inside of me. "Ain't no other explanation for what a girl like you is doin' in bed with a man like me."
 
"Yeah, beautiful girl," he whispered. "I'm feelin' you too."

 

 

"FUCK YOU!" He roared as his fist shot out. The mirror shattered on impact.
Shattered.
Just like his fucking life.

 

 

Jesus. Why couldn't he have had boys? All boys. Little fucking shits like Cage. A whole slew of 'em he could throw condoms at and be done with it.

 

 

Rainstorms brought you to your knees, soaking you in uncontrollable need, lightning flashing before your eyes while you dug your fingers deep into the earth, trying to hold on; unable to tell which was louder…the thunder roaring in your ears or the pounding of your heart.
Ripper was my rainstorm, my skin-drenching frenzy, where you couldn't tell right from left, where all you could feel was the phenomenon exploding throughout your body, feverishly burning through you even as it pleasurably cooled.

 

 
The most difficult reviews to write are those where you neither loved nor hated a book. I’m sitting in front of my laptop, perusing my mind to find the right words and I feel underwhelmed and uninspired. Well, here we go. I’m trying to make it short and to the point though.
 
First off, the ‘quotes’ I added to my review are the most “interesting” I could find in Unbeautifully, and since I’m a sucker for great quotes it says a lot that my eye couldn’t catch more. In fact, it’s a little bit disappointing. What will always stay with me, however, are the never ending and excessive temper tantrums. In a nutshell Unbeautifully provided plenty of sobbing and crying, OTT hysterical and screeching women that hurt my ears and caused me a headache, plenty of male and female shouting as well as drama over drama over drama. Hence, I was ready to fall on my knees and beg: Just. Tone. It. Down. A. Little. Bit. Also, the sex in this book didn’t do anything for me. Mostly it was about f@ck--me--through--the--mattress or f@ck--me--through--the--wall encounters. Or whatever. Honestly, it didn’t knock me on my ass. I mean that might be good and enjoyable a couple times but then it gets old and boring pretty quickly. Readers who loved Deuce in Undeniable will get an eyeful, earful and mouthful of him and his oh-so smart Eva in Unbeautifully. Witnessing their antics was strenuous and yet totally diverting, I’ll give them that. However, I can’t for the life of me understand why Eva has been described as smart coz she was anything but. Truth be told I couldn’t believe my eyes when I read that:
 
“There is an old story passed down through the generations of a Native American grandfather counseling his young grandson, telling him that he has two wolves living inside of him, constantly fighting each other for dominance. One is the wolf of peace, love and kindness. The other represents fear, greed, and hatred. The boy asks, ‘Which wolf will win, Grandfather?’ and the wise old man replies ‘Whichever one I feed.”
Eva stared at her, wondering what the woman was talking about.
 
Um…clue the f@ck in, Eva, you dumb twit! Yup, you are such a smart ‘bitch’. *major headdesk moment* There’s no getting round it to point out that I slightly resent it when female characters come across as dumb, whiny, needy, and overly hysterical (this includes Danny too). It happened in Undeniable  and it was an ongoing issue in Unbeautifully as well.
 
Unbeautifully should have been Ripper and Danny’s story, however, I got the impression that Deuce and Eva overshadowed the other couple all the time—certainly Deuce. And let’s face it, without Deuce Unbeautifully wouldn’t have been the same because he somehow made this story. Though I felt that the fallout of Eva’s rape was not really dealt with. Deuce storming off all the time and attempting to have sex with another ‘bitch’ was weird, to say the least. After all, this is a major issue and dealing with it in a superficial way is neither believable nor ‘satisfying’. I would have expected to see them having a real conversation once in a while. Just sit down and work it out already! Geez, they were constantly avoiding the elephant in the room. That’s why I think it was a missed opportunity and everything was so nicely and quickly wrapped up in the end—delivered with a lovely bow actually. ’I want you back. I miss you.’ That’s so incredibly convenient and not good enough for me.
 
I didn’t like the plot twist at 58 % when Ripper simply left everything and everyone behind after Nikki had been killed. He didn’t say a word and his acting out led to their long separation and to Danny’s abortion AND to her hooking up with ZZ. Stilted drama, much?
 
What I liked
What I really appreciated about this book was the concept of loving someone who is physically scarred and ugly, but when you look beyond the scars you can find beauty. After all, beauty is in the eye of the beholder and it comes in many different forms and shapes. Besides, beauty is arbitrary. It is not only about physical perfection, it’s an inner feeling and being loved will make you feel good and happy and in spite of all the scars it helps you to radiate beauty.
 
Compared to Undeniable the editing of Unbeautifully was a major improvement which pleased me a lot.
 
In conclusion, I liked and enjoyed Unbeautifully and its entertainment value is rather high, for sure, and yet I can't help but feel a tiny bit disappointed. It wasn’t a knockout.
 

 

 

"All scars tell a story, beautiful girl," he said, releasing me to trace the marks on my stomach. "Yours are tellin' me how healthy and fuckin' perfect my kid is gonna be."
A tear slid out of the corner of my eye. "Shut up," I whispered.
"And mine," he said softly, grabbing my hand, trailing my palm across his cheek and then his chest. "Tell the story of how I found you."

 
 
Warning
If you are sensitive to explicit and graphic violence, torture and bloodshed, sex and swearing then this is not the book for you. The f-bomb is dropped in many different variations all the time and it’s very obvious that cussing is as vital as breathing in the badass biker world.

**WARNING** This review contains a lot of swearing.. If you don’t like swearing… don’t fucking read it!


… and he kissed her.
And kissed her.
Fucking kissed her.
Kissed the fucking shit out of her.

Holy fuck batman
This book didn’t just toy with my emotions.
It fucked them up!


Madeline is a genius.. Utter genius! I didn’t think that Undeniable could be topped it was such a fucking epic read.


But boy was I wrong…
Excuse my language but man.. She fucked me sideways with my feels in this book!

Sheen somehow managed to rip out my beating heart out of my chest.


While standing over me holding my still beating bloody heart she pets it saying


Leaving me grossly sobbing on my knees.



laughing like a maniac,


when I’m screaming WHYYYY


she just continues to laugh before she puts it back in my chest.


I can feel the blood course through my veins but it is not the same.
A part of me is broken.. I know there is more to come


Then I’m euphoric again, flying through the air on a unicorn, eating chocolate spewing rainbows and shit like that…


Until I’m vomiting from exhaustion from being so HIGH and then brought down so low, low as in the spec of dirt under a piece of gum that has been embedded on the sidewalk for the past 50 years.

And yet you soldier on cos you know it's only gunna get even better…


Ands then there is the epilogue…
Shakes head…
The fucking Epilogue…

ROCKED!

But of course it left me wanting MORE…
And then finding out that there is not just one more book like planned..

THAT THERE IS GOING TO BE 5 IN THE SERIES!!


OK So I know what your thinking… (must read in whiny voice) “But KELLLLIIIIIIEEE You haven’t actually told us what happens in this book?”
Well guess what suckers I’m not going to!
This book HAS to be read
So much happens that if I start to explain what happens, it won’t be a surprise!

I WILL tell you that

- > NO-ONE writes like Madeline!

- > We get MORE of Deuce and Eva.
- > NOTHING is easy for Ripper and Danny!
- > I THINK I like Ripper more than Deuce. (It’s really hard to compare them both! And then there is Cage, and Hawk, and ZZ and jusy sigh)
- >Sex Scenes are detailed, brutal and FAN-FUCKIN-TASTIC!
- > We also get a TEASE about Tegan and Cage.
- > Kami and Cox are still CRAZY Mo’Fo’s.
- > There is a TRIANGLE of Hawk- Dorothy- Jase.
- > SOMETHING horrible happens, but it is not a rape like in the first one
- > It is takes place over YEARS but not as many as the first book.
- > Ivy is so darn CUTE
- > The sneak peek that we have all read about Eva and Deuce’s WEDDING is in there.
- > It’s told in Eva, Deuce’s, Danny and Rippers POV
- > And old Blue is still around.


I mean SERIOUSLY how can you not love this book with quotes like:

You may not be beautiful the way you were before” I whispered, cupping his ruined cheek. “ But you’re beautiful. To. Me.”
#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#
“All scars tell a story, beautiful girl,” he said. “And mine,” he said softly, grabbing my hand,, trailing my palm across his cheek and then his chest. “Tell the story of how I found you.”
#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#
“Ripper,” I whispered, clinging to his neck as he carried me from the bathroom into his bedroom. “I think I love you.”
“Yeah, baby,” he whispered, sliding back inside me. “Ain’t no other explanation for what a girl like you is doin’ in bed with a man like me.”
#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#
“I wanna rip you the fuck open,” he said breathing harder as his thrusts became brutal.
“I want all of me inside you, not just my fucking cock baby, but all of me.”
“Yes,” she whimpered. “I want all of you.”
#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#
“Meant what I said,” he said dropping his forehead to mine. “You’re with me, your only with me. I ain’t gonna share you with some teenage asshat whose dick ain’t full grown.”
#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#
“Yeah beautiful girl,” he whispered. “I’m feeling you too.”
#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#
Jesus. Why couldn’t he have had boys? All boys? Little fucking shits like Cage. A whole slew of ‘em he could throw condoms at and be done with it.
#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#
“If your old man caps me, you better be front and center at my fuckin’ funeral, crying your goddamn eyes out.”
#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#
“Motherfuck,” Deuce muttered, staring after him. “Ten bucks says he fucked that mouthy little asshole. Motherfuckin’ little fuck can’t keep it in his pants for shit. Cocksucker would fuck a hole in the wall. Probably has.
#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#
“He knew Danny, she was a fucking chatterbox. She was always rambling on and on about music and clothes and some asshat named Chan-a-something Tater Tots.”
#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#
“Babe,” he whispered. “Can’t look at me like that and expect me to be keepin’ it reeled in.”
“Baby, don’t ever keep it reeled in,” she whispered back. “Not with me.”
#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#

OK so I highlighted a lot more than that but I'll leave it at that before I write the whole book on here.

I NEED THIS BOOK!

[AJ · Rating 5 out of 5]

Another sensational read from Madeline Sheehan.
AND GODDAMN, I WANT A HOT, BADASS, FOUL-MOUTHED BIKER BOY!!!

Danny and Ripper…

“Ours was the furthest thing from a picture-perfect romance; it was more of a car crash, a metal-bending, blood-splattered disaster that left no survivors, only bad memories and heartache.
But it was ours.
And because it was ours…I wouldn’t change a thing.”

That quote came from the prologue of this book. By the end of the prologue, I was hooked. By the end of the first chapter, I had already rated 5 stars and was bouncing up and down in my chair, so freaking excited to read the rest of the book.

Fair warning too - I’ve gone all quote-whore in my review again. Deal with it :P

This book starts where Undeniable finishes, and we are straight back into the world of the Hell’s Horsemen MC. Deuce and Eva are (at last) happily married, and Deuce’s daughter Danny, and club member, Ripper have some INTENSE chemistry going on, but despite all of the eye fuckery, there is some major animosity between them. They clearly have history, and there is one EPIC moment, before the story moves back to three years previously to get the start of their story.

As the daughter of a MC Prez, 18 year old Danny has grown up in the biker world. “A world of constant crime and cruelty, a cold world full of despair and death.”. She has always been a spirited, happy and vibrant girl, but with the fallout of the events at the end of Undeniable (before the HEA epilogue), her life has fallen to pieces, and she is struggling to cope. And then along comes Ripper. He has been left horrifically scarred after being brutally tortured in the first book, and is still nursing a whole heap of issues. At 32 years old, he is 14 years older than Danny, but the two of them come together unexpectedly one night, and it irrevocably alters them both.

Unable to stay away from each other, they engage in a clandestine affair – kept secret because of Deuce’s club rules that nobody is to touch his baby girl. And above all else, Ripper is loyal to his club, his brothers, and to his President.

“He was fucked. He was so fucking fucked.”

“If your old man caps me, you better be front and center at my fuckin’ funeral, cryin’ your goddamn eyes out.”

Theirs is an intense and all consuming love. They fall fast, and they fall hard, and together they are absolutely SMOKING HOT!!! There is some sensational character development as the two of them find strength in each other, but one tragic event brings it all to a screeching halt. And in order to protect Danny, and thinking that she is better off without him (ugh, why do guys do that???), he takes off, shattering them both.

Told in dual POV, we get to see both of them try to move on, and my heart broke over and over again at everything they went through, and the circumstances they are forced to deal with. And when they inevitably come face to face again, there is still so much feeling between them, their love and anger practically explode off the page, but there are even more obstacles between them now, and they still have so much more to face! There is lots of heartache, and plenty of ‘oh fuck’ moments, not only for Danny and Ripper, but for the rest of the MC, and it’s one helluva ride!

“FUCK THIS SHIT.
Fuck the club and the code, and fuck brotherhood. He would give it all up for her. For his woman. Because she sure as shit was his, and he’d go to hell and back ten times over before he lost her forever.”

And oh joy, there is a lots of Deuce and Eva time! The majority of this book is retrospective, and so we get to see them suffering through the after effects of the ending of Undeniable. And it is utterly heartbreaking! Seeing them so torn up after everything that they had been through was just devastating! But thank God, we got to see the moment where it all turns around for them, and even though I knew the outcome, I was still cheering.

“I love you,” she cried softly. “No one else, baby, not like this, not the way I’ve always loved you.”
“How much do you love me?” he asked hoarsely …
“You already know,” she whimpered. “You’re everything to me, everything, you always have been, baby…”

“Eva,” he rasped, cupping the back of her head and forcing her to look at him. “Marry me, darlin’.”

And a big shout out to Danny’s big brother Cage. He’s a total manwhore…

“Motherfuck,” Deuce muttered, staring after him. “Ten bucks says he fucked that mouthy little asshole. Motherfuckin’ little fuck can’t keep it in his pants for shit. Cocksucker would fuck a hole in the wall. Probably has.”

… but he is beautifully protective of his baby sister.

“Coulda fuckin’ told me, little sister,” he said quietly. “Would never let you go through all this shit by yourself.”
Grabbing my hand, he threaded his large fingers through mine and squeezed. “This is what big brothers are fuckin’ here for … To pick their little sisters up when they fall the fuck down.”

He's a total mini-Deuce and I love him. His story is set up very nicely, and I'm excited for the fireworks which I am sure are to come!

There are other storylines woven throughout the book involving the other members of the MC. It’s good, it’s bad, and it’s shocking, but it all adds to the biker world, and to the reality of the lifestyle. And the banter between the boys is sensational!

“Who’s fuckin’ pussy-whipped now, asshat?” Cox laughed over his shoulder. “That would be you, bitch!”
“You did not just call me a bitch!” Mick roared, chasing him.
“Bitch! I fuckin’ did! Bitch!”

While, for me, this book didn’t have the shocking ‘in-your-face-what-the-fuck-did-I-just-read?’ punch that Undeniable did, it is still an absolutely fantastic book. The writing is phenomenal, it’s vivid and real, and completely sucks you into the story. And once again, Madeline pulls no punches when creating her biker world. It’s dirty, brutal, violent, and shocking at times, yet the bond of the brotherhood is incredibly strong, and she still manages to make you care about her characters – even when they do horribly deplorable things. Plus we get not one, but two beautiful (although slightly fucked up) love stories featuring four broken, but incredible characters that are absolutely unforgettable.

I loved every single moment of this book, I wish it was longer. 5 sensational stars.

5 Phenomenal Stars!

When I read Undeniable last year, I was blown away. It was raw, gritty, intense... and I loved every second! This book was no different. I was hooked from the prologue. One of those books you will not be able to put down.



This is Danny and Ripper’s story.



Danielle West grew up with Deuce as a father. Deuce is the Prez of the local MC club. Things haven’t been ideal at home. Her mom has been out of the picture for some time, her dad and step-mom have been having their issues. Her brother is out manwhoring. She has had to step up at home a lot to help with her little sister Ivy. Her family is falling apart. It’s her senior year of high school and she is eighteen. At her high school prom. She calls the club for a ride home, she is ready to get out of there. Ripper comes to pick her up.



Ripper has been through hell. Not only did he lose his family at a young age, the last 5 years have been especially difficult. After being cut up and scarred by crazy Frankie, he harbors a lot of resentment. When he picks Danny up, he insists she dances. Its her prom. She wants to dance with him. Once they leave, she’s not ready to go home. Against his better judgement, he takes her to the lake. He knows they shouldn’t, but things happen between the two of them.

“Baby, man like me got no business with a girl like you. You’re nothin’ but fuckin’ beauty and I’m a whole lot of fuckin’ ugly who’s halfway to hell.”

Ripper knows he isn’t good enough for Danny, but he can’t stop wanting her. He keeps his distance... she is Prez’s daughter and he knows to pursue her would be suicide. She wears down all his defenses. She sees past the scars, sees him.

“Ripper, you’re still beautiful. So you’ve got some scars. So what?”

Weeks go by, and they keep their distance. Finally, they can’t stay away any longer. With Deuce and some of the others away on business, Danny and Ripper spend a magical week together holed up in his cabin.



Danny starts to fall for Ripper.

“Ripper, I think I love you.”

“Yeah, baby. Ain’t no other explanation for what a girl like you is doin’ in bed with a man like me.”

Danny wants to tell her father about their relationship, she wants to tell everyone. Ripper knows how dangerous that would be. He insists they stay quiet. But he can’t fight his feelings. He is falling for Danny too. He finally found someone that might be worth changing his ways for.

Erik Jacobs had finally fallen for a woman.

But loyalty means everything to Ripper. He is a brother. Things get a little sketchy from here...

I am going to stop summarizing there... you really have to read this one. I will tell you this. Shit gets crazy!

We get a lot of Eva and Deuce, some Cox and Kami, Cage, and a ton of other characters from the first book. It was really great to catch up will all of them and see their stories. You know I love me some Deuce...

“I’m gonna fix it, and then I’m gonna fix it again and keep on fixin it until the bad stops outweighin’ the good, until there ain’t nothin’ but good left.”

This book/series is a must read. It has angst, action, love, sex, grit, and intensity. This was amazing and is for sure going right on my favorites shelf. I think I loved Danny & Ripper’s story even more than Deuce & Eva’s. I loved those two. My feelings were all over the place while reading, but I loved every single second of this book! I will say it again... these books are MUST READS! If you haven’t read them... do it now! You are seriously missing out!

Madeline Sheehan you are most awesome for creating this world with these crazy, intense, yet lovable characters! The writing was fantastic as always. I can’t flippin’ wait for the next book... CAGE- yes please!!! I am leary about it being Cage and Tegen’s book... I really couldn’t stand her in this one. But I’m sure Madeline will make me love her!

“All scars tell a story, beautiful girl. And mine, tell the story of how I found you.”

How does Madeline Sheehan write this series?

My only guess is that she must be the ‘prez’ of her local biker club and if so…patch me in babe!

Ms. Sheehan writes foulmouthed hardcore bikers like nobody’s business!!

I'm still reeling myself in…from this gritty, raw, funny, flawed, dirty and intense ride with the Horsemen! Unbeautifully was absolutely FAN-FREAKIN-TASTIC!!!

The story takes place immediately following the ending of Undeniable. We back track to see how beautiful Danielle West, daughter of Deuce, club president falls for Ripper and finds herself in the position of being proposed to by ZZ at a barbeque.

The prologue kicked major ass and a fan will be sucked right back into this world that Ms. Sheehan has masterfully created.

We see and feel all the ramifications of Frankie’s terror spree on our characters and all of the scars that the victims bare. I felt their struggle and I celebrated as they slowly took their lives back.

We get so much of Deuce and Eva and then theres crazy Kami and Cox (hysterical couple) Old Blue (your still my boy), Dirty (loved him), Cage is smokin’ hot can’t wait for his book, and of course we fall in love with Ripper and Dani.

Ripper and Dani had CHEMISTRY and so much more! Ripper was a victim of Frankie. He bares horrific scars and has been broken and depressed ever since. On Dani’s prom night he gives her a ride home, and well the rest is history…

“Baby, man like me got no business with a girl like you. You’re nothin’ but fuckin’ beauty and I’m a whole lot of fuckin’ ugly who’s halfway to hell.” ~ Ripper

The couple sneak around due to Ripper’s fear of Deuce finding out and killing him. They find the forever kind of love and it’s Sexy and Beautiful!



”Ripper”, I whispered, clinging to his neck as he carried me from the bathroom into his bedroom. “I think I love you.” ~ Dani

”Yeah baby”, he whispered, sliding back inside me. “Aint no other explanation for what a girl like you is doin’ in bed with a man like me.”~ Ripper

A whole lot of terrible things happen to Dani and Ripper along with some horrible decisions. I was frustrated, angry and crushed by their actions.

"It was all there, everything he was feeling everything I needed to know, written all over his face.
He loved me.
And he hated me."

This love story is anything but perfect. But it was real, raw, heartbreaking and beautiful. I routed for them and I cried at their pain and I struggled alongside them to get our hea.

”Love is a feeling, a real, raw, and unscripted emotion so sensationally pure, unable to dull even under the strain of a world against it, strong enough to heal the broken and warm even the coldest hearts.
Innate.
Unavoidable.
Undeniable.”

I love you hard Madeline Sheenan!

4+ Scarred but still Shining, Beauty and Love Stars

Everything has beauty. Even the ugly. Especially the ugly. Because without ugly, there would be no beauty. Because without beauty, we would not survive our pain, our sorrow, and our suffering.





Once upon a time a girl, Danielle "Danny" West fell in love with a tortured man, Erik “Ripper” Jacobs who loved her more than his scarred heart dared to admit.



Danny, the daughter of the President of Hell’s Horsemen Motorcycle Club was supposed to get away of the club and the violence. She was to be something more. But happiness isn't in the achievements we make. It's in the details. In your father's smiling eyes, your brother's arms, on your man's bike...



Ripper, Sergeant and Brother wasn't supposed to fall for his Prez' Daughter. Scarred, tortured, bitter and older he has no right to Danny but heart wants what the heart wants and when life intervenes you have to fight tooth and nail and be brave enough to go against anything that stands in your way.

“We were doomed from the start, weren’t we, baby?”



They weren't ready to make a stand and fight. To defy all odds and the Motorcycle Club's rules. To face their past and hope for future, together. So they left. Ripper away to fight his demons and Danny withdrew inside her head to fight her dreams, making mistake upon mistake until life came full circle and they are one last chance and one wrong move away of the end. Happiness or doom? It's in their hands to claim. Will they risk the brotherhood, themselves and loved ones, their homes and lives to be together again?



This also the story of Deuce and Eva, we all felt was left incomplete in Undeniable. And if you think that they lived happily ever after, you are gonna get heartbroken....



They are broken. In pieces so small that just like sand, are slipping through their fingers and drifting apart. Frankie managed what everybody else tried and failed. To destroy them. They can't move on, because in their heads they are still in that hellish room, Eva getting raped and Deuce chained to the radiator witnessing the woman he loves be abused by her ex-husband. They have to start all over again, forgive and forget, because if they both know something for certain, is that they live to love each other...



An amazing series about unconventional love and undeniable passion. A glimpse in a world ruled by bastards, p*ssies and old ladies. Murderers and criminals. Feelings and emotions clogged by the smell of gasoline, leather and sweat. Life on the other side of the tracks where women must be stronger than men and men don't claim to be heroes. Danny and Ripper's story is unbeautifully perfect but it's theirs and they can do whatever they f*cking want with it...

“No sooner met but they looked, no sooner looked but they loved, no sooner loved but they sighed, no sooner sighed but they asked one another the reason, no sooner knew the reason but they sought the remedy…” —William Shakespeare



I can't get this pic out of my head, every time I think of these books...

Life goes on. If there is nothing else in this world you can count on, you can count on that. Life will go on. With or without you. Before you, after you, all around you, life has always done just that. Gone on.



Life can be so unbeautiful... Work it, seize it, own it!



I am addicted and craving for more, can't wait for Cage and Tegen's story!!!



My feelings upon the book's release:
4/27/2013 UPDATE: YAAAAYY! IT'S OUT!!!

HOLY SHIT!!




UnBeautifully is the heart wrenching,frustrating,intense and ultimately BEAUTIFUL story of Danny & Ripper.I felt every emotion!!!
It is real,I filled with such intense emotions!!!

"I don’t believe in fate. I firmly believe that life is what you make of it, that life will react to your actions, and that your final destination has nothing to do with destiny but instead everything to do with the choices you make along the way.With one exception.
LOVE"


"All scars tell a story beautiful girl''
And mine tell the story of how I found you"!!!



Danny and Ripper's story is...Scary, amazing,true,flawed,fucked up, intense and ...Beautiful.






"You may not be beautiful the way you were before" I whispered, cupping his ruined cheek. "But you're still beautiful. To me."


Danny is trying to keep her family from falling apart but is losing herself in the process. All she wants is to have one night that is perfect... And she wants Ripper to make it happen...


The first time they are together is on her prom night and from then on its like nothing happened between the two as they try to figure out how to deal with the fact one of the clubs brothers slept with Deuces daughter. Ripper is fucked up and thinks the only way to deal if to hide it from Prez or leave.Danny doesn't agree,then everything goes to shit...



I love how we were brought back into this world and we're filled in on some of the missing pieces and emotional struggle that brought Deuce's and Eva to where they are now.
We got to see a lot more of all these Horsemen!!
This book was epic!!had a bit of everyone in it!!






"Yeah I fuckin love you,bitch!I've only ever loved you and I ain't never stoped"

What the hell did I just read you may wonder?


Well sit down and cross your legs ladies and gentleman because when you hear about Unbeautifully by Madeline Sheehan, you run the risk of having your panties (or manties) run off into a lust filled abyss of awesomeness.



Last year I had the pleasure of reading book one of Sheehan's motorcycle club series promptly named, Undeniable. (Fun fact it was supposed to be a stand alone, but being that Madeline is a fucking Goddess of EPIC proportions she wrote another book for her fans AND recently told us that she will be adding another THREE, yes THREE books to the line up. This bitch is my hero. For real.)



Undeniable threw me into a world of lust, hurt, pain, wonder, hatred, belly drops from hell, and most importantly a real taste of the fucked up, but totally legit love story of Deuce and Eva.



That book ruined me.

There were parts where I just knew I was going to stroke out, or throw up all of my insides. Madeline has a way of getting under your skin to secretly rip your fucking heart out, while calmly keeping your punk ass alive, whilst your bloody, traitor of a heart erratically beats in her tortuous grasp. Then she holds your heart captive until SHE is ready to let you go, and even after that bitch ass heart is back in its place you're still fucked up in the head from the royal mind fuck that just slapped you in the puss. Curtiously delivered by those fucking ingenious digits of hers which spout this fucked up beautiful mess of a book out on to her computer screen.



Yes I feel that strongly about these books. That's how you know that your shit is REAL. Undeniable put me into the biggest book funk I've had to date because I couldn't REEL IT IN. Deuce and Eva have been on my brain for months, then finally....oh lord sweet baby jesus FINALLY Madeline released Unbeautifully early.



Ladies and Gentlemen, I found God and her name is Madeline Sheehan. We need a statue or something erected in this woman's honor because yet again she has released some beauty into this world that no one else can do.

Unbeautifully is the story of Danny (Deuce's baby girl from Undeniable) and the scarred bad boy, Ripper.

I will admit, I didn't think I'd be as hooked on Danny and Ripper as I was Deuce and Eva, but once again Madeline proved me wrong.



Unbeautifully has something for everyone. There are swoon moments, hot moments, OMFG TAKE ME NOW moments, youfuckingbastardhowcouldyou moments, laugh your ass off moments, and the most important to me, the "ah ha" moments. Danny's transformation from Undeniable to the end of Unbeautifully is something only an extremely skilled writer could pull off. It was nothing short of amazing and (to me) inspiring as hell.

[image error]

If you've read Undeniable, you already know that our boy Frankie did one hell of a number on Ripper. Ripper is scarred pretty bad, but Danny sees past that shit and loves him for who he is on the inside and not the shit that's on the outside. I was not expecting that from an 18 barbie-esq girl who wore pink and bling twenty-four seven.

Sheehan weaves the pieces together flawlessly to where you feel the pain and turmoil that Frankie caused during his crazy escapades during Undeniable. He fucked everyone up and even after he's long gone he is still causing all sorts of pain for a number of people. Unbeautifully picks up where Undeniable left off and you are given a taste of the hurt that everyone is feeling and why the characters are acting the way they are.

Danny is lonely and down on life. Ripper provides her with a night of letting go and being free of all of the worries in her life. Yeah it might have not been the greatest of ideas, but I loved it! I think I turned five shades of red when I read some of the lines that he said to her during THAT scene at the lake.



Oh lawd jeebus it's an orgasm!



Reel it in, Brandi. Ok where was I? Oh right, from that night forward we are taken on a roller coaster ride of emotions. Some of which are from Deuce and Eva's point of view because after what happened to them in Undeniable, shit didn't automatically fix itself. It was raw and it was real. Like I've said a million times before Madeline can do no wrong with her characters. I have mad respect for this woman and her brutal honestly about shit that most people would gloss over and tie up with a pretty bow.

Fuck that she said, here let me crush your soul and laugh in your face while I hang it over your head that they will in fact get over this shitty ass hump in life and be stronger than ever.



She's twisted like that, but I wouldn't have it any other way! Unbeautifully was just as good, if not better than Undeniable. I'm more than ever invested in this serious and I can.not.wait. until the next book which is going to be Cage and Teegan's story. That one is going to blow the roof off of the fucking house!



Thank you Madeline AGAIN for sharing your world with us. You're the coolest bitch I know. #DeuceBabe4life!

'It was so motherfucking good; she looked like a goddamn sex angel, face flushed and breathing hard, whimpering and crying as he took her hard and fast and she felt like heaven, tight and soft and smooth.
He felt the walls of his world start to shake and the bricks began to fall…
ONE

ONE until it was a free-for-all and suddenly he could breathe again when he hadn’t even realized he’d been holding his breath.

Breath he’d been holding for the last five years.' ~Ripper





'Yeah, he wanted to lay claim to Danielle West, ink his name on her body and slap an old lady patch on her ass. And worse, he wanted the world to know it. It was at that precise moment that Ripper knew his world had shattered for a third time, had crumbled and turned to dust at his feet. Nothing from here on out would ever again be the same.' ~Ripper









FAVE scenes and/or lines said and unsaid

'She’d fucked him, both literally and figuratively. He’d been done for the moment she’d called him beautiful. Jesus, he was only human.' Inner monologue of Ripper

'If I wanted this man, I already knew what would be expected of me. Was I prepared for all that came with it? No. But I was a fast learner and everything about Ripper had my body screaming he’s worth it, he’s worth it.' ~Inner monologue of Danny

“Ready?” the minister asked.
“Fuck, yeah,” he said gruffly. “This bitch is mine.” ~Deuce

“He’s big,” I admitted.
“But I don’t have much to compare him to.”
“I want inches and circumference,” she said, her tone matter-of-fact.
“Oh my god, Anabeth, seriously?”
“Seriously.”

…And he kissed her. And kissed her. Fucking kissed her. Kissed the fucking shit out of her. Kissed her the way he’d been wanting to kiss her since he’d left her. “Fuck,” he muttered in between kisses. Suffocating, nearly violent kisses that were growing harder, even more demanding. ~Inner monologue of Ripper

'Jesus. Why couldn’t he have had boys? All boys. Little fucking shits like Cage. A whole slew of ’em he could throw condoms at and be done with it.' ~Inner monologue of Deuce

I. NEED. THIS. BOOK.

[Lisa · Rating 5 out of 5]

*ARC given to blog for honest review*

5+++ MOTHER FUCKING “Beautiful Girl” Kisses!!!

*WARNING* This review will have profanity…I am about to go off on one of the best books I have read this year, possibly ever in my life and if you don’t like the word “fuck”…just stop now. :-) Oh and as usual, I will babble




‘Fuck. Jesus fucking fuck.’….can I just say that I have been waiting for UnBeautifully since the second I finished UnDeniable. Why, might you ask? Because…these characters crawl into your brain, fuck you up in the best way possible and then pop a squat for the long haul, never letting go and you love it. You want it. You beg for it and crave it. Don’t ask me how Madleine does it, she has magic jedi powers or some shit.

“Baby,” he said, “listen to me. I ain’t beautiful, you are. You’re so damn beautiful you got it spillin’ out all over the place, blindin’ you into thinkin’ I’m beautiful when I ain’t. Farthest thing from it.”

So…if you haven’t read UnDeniable, A.) What the fuck is wrong with you? B.) Stop whatever your doing and read it right fucking now? And C.) Don’t even crack open UnBeautifully until you do. First of all, let me address the prologue…the first 17 lines of this book, all highlighted. Because it’s beautifully written, profound and the straight up fucking truth hitting you in the face. It stole my breath, brought tears to my eyes and at that point I knew I was going to love this book. Those 17 lines solidified it for me.

“Jesus,” he whispered, running his thumb along my mouth, tugging it open, gently stroking my bottom lip. “Why can’t I say no to you?”

UnB picks up where UnD left off, seamlessly, you jump right back into the story of the Hell’s Horsemen Motorcycle Club. This time around, we start off with Danny’s POV. Danielle Elizabeth West…18 and Deuce’s eldest daughter, she’s an angel among devil’s and despite her father being the president of a motorcycle gang, she’s a good girl that’s got her head on straight. Until life smacks her in the face.



‘That’s how this shit was with Danny.
It was an accident, a mistake, it was the wrong place at the wrong time kind of shit that had quickly turned into a catastrophe of epic proportions.
If she’d just been pussy, if he’d fucked her at the lake then forgotten about it…
But Danny was different.
A game changer.
She wasn’t pussy, she was damned beautiful and everything he’d ever wanted in a woman but hadn’t realized until he held her in his arms.
She was the reason his world was about to shatter again.’

Erik “Ripper” Jacobs…oh my sweet baby JESUS this man. He’s dark. He’s twisted. He’s scared, on the inside and out. But he’s so fuckin beautiful. At 32 his lived a life with more pain and suffering, just the thought of it makes my eyes water. He’s a bad ass don’t get me wrong but even through his imperfections, he’s perfect. I swooned over Deuce, hard, but Ripper held my heart in his hand.

‘He was an incredibly beautiful man. The scars just forced you to look a little harder to see what was still there, and what was still there was the squared, strong, bone structure of a Greek god, the heavily muscled stature of a boxer, and a deviously sexy smile.’

They first meet when Danny is 3 and Ripper is 17 ‘at a bike rally while on a run through San Antonio.’ This isn’t crucial information, I just love it cause I’m from San Antonio…and fuck yeah, they met in my hometown :-) (ha…I’m a dork!) Another thing is the age difference, let’s just building a big fucking bridge and get over it right about now…14 years, oh wow, so big (I wish I had a sarcastic emoticon I could insert here…) Alright, everyone over that fact? Good…we can move on.

‘The things this man made me feel just by speaking was unreal. At times I wanted to weep from the sheer sensation of never before experienced feelings that I knew had already wrecked me for any other man.’

I was all set and ready for Danny and Ripper, and then….Madeline decided to surprise me. You don’t just get Danny and Ripper’s POV….*suspenseful pause* We get Deuce and Eva!!!! YAY!!!!! OMG best surprise ever! So you’ve got four different POV’s, two different couples stories – there are many opportunities for things to get confusing, flow to get a little messy – nope. Doesn’t happen. I promise you it’s seamless and effortless. I knew everything between Eva and Deuce wasn’t ‘perfect’ after the shit storm that happened in UnD, but Lord have mercy. I cried…a lot. They both were hurting so bad and there is not one fucking thing you can do about it besides hold on and just know in the back of your mind everything is okay in the end.




‘Because once you had a taste of a good woman, suddenly nothing else mattered but her.
Nothing.’

So back to Danny and Ripper. God I love these two. They ‘shouldn’t be together’ but they can’t stay away, which makes me want them to be together more. And if the fact that they couldn’t be open with their relationship wasn’t enough to kill me things kept getting worse…and worse, until I was in the fetal position just crying my eyes out. I hurt for them. Physically…Emotionally…that’s what Madeline Sheehan did to me with her writing.

‘I was a wreck, my life was a wreck, everything was just…wrong.
Irreparable.
And all I could think about was Ripper.’



Alright so it wasn’t all doom and gloom and sadness – there were SO many times where I was laughing so hard I couldn’t breathe. Kami and Cox are sheer brilliance on paper…and I have two words that will forever make me think of them and crack up… ‘American Indian’ . I loved seeing more of characters we were introduced to in UnD, but getting a better glimpse of in UnB. I loved that there was a 3 paragraph comparison of orgasms to a rainy day and rainstorm (just trust me, it’s genius), I loved the word ’sexalicious’ was used, and of course…being a classic dirty book whore, I loved all the sex. Hot. Mind Blowing. Amazing. Sex.



But the best thing in the book…was a line, that will always mean so much more to me than I can express… ‘Don’t let the lack of mustache fool ya, baby,” he said, grinning. “I’m always down for a gang bang.” Just typing those words brings joy to my heart that I can’t even put into words. Even though I was gutted and wrecked through so much, the ending pulled me through and I couldn’t be happier. The epilogue was magical…perfect…loved it. *sigh*

‘No, he didn’t care about anything else in the world except for his woman, the sweetest kid he’d ever met, the smartest too, a kid who’d turned into the sexiest woman he’d ever seen. A woman who didn’t just love with her whole heart but with her body and soul. A woman who time and time again, brought him to his fucking knees, had him prayer to a god he didn’t believe in just so he could keep her by his side.
A woman whose motherfucking smile made the world and his life seem somewhat livable. Even worth it sometimes.’

I got the same feelings with UnB as I did in UnD, but I was more prepared for them this time around. I welcomed them with open arms. In UnD I struggled with the fact that I was liking a book that by ‘society’s’ standards, I prolly shouldn’t like – but with UnB, I straight up didn’t give a fuck. I LOVE that this book is so different, I want that in a book. I want something that breaks the mold, challenges me and still makes me love the shit out of it, that’s fucking awesome. This book is not fucking sunshine and roses…if you’re looking for that, you’re in the wrong book. But that doesn’t mean it isn’t a beautiful fuckin story about real and raw people that are flawed and yet perfect all in the same breath.

“Ripper, I’ve always been yours.”



To say I am unapologetically, completely and 100% certifiably in love with Madeline’s brain and all the genius that comes out of it is putting it mildly. I want to live, breathe and exist in the world she has created. And I also want Cage’s story…now. :-)

REEL THESE 5 STARS IN BABY!



WOW! I loved Undeniable but I really wasn’t expecting Unbeautifully to be that freaking good!

This is the story of Danny (Deuce’s daughter) and Ripper. At the end of Undeniable we were all thinking Danny had something special with ZZ but boy, we were waaaaaay wrong.

I don’t really want to spoil anything for you so I’ll try to behave with the thousand quotes I highlighted while reading but let me tell you, baby, THIS SHIT IS GOOD!

Danny was a great heroine. Ok, she is young so she is meant to make mistakes but we all do, right?



She is hot and she knows what to expect from life until one night, until she looks at Ripper and she sees something else, something no one else see.



And well, Ripper doesn’t appreciate his life, does he? I mean, we all remember Deuce, don’t we? Yes, Ripper kinda kissed goodbye his great dick! But you know what? Danny is not a daddy’s daughter, if she wants something, she’s gonna fight for it, she’s not scared.



So… you want to know what happens? You want to know if Deuce kills Ripper? You want to know what the hell is ZZ doing in this story? You want to know more details about Eva fucking Fox and Deuce? You want to fall in love with Cage & Tegen? Ok, bitch, if your answers are YES you better stop losing your time reading my review and go buy this GREAT book!



And you, Madeline, you crazy bitch, keep writing, never EVER stop because the chemistry between your characters is just so damn special and I need your books like I need breathing!

I know this is a crazy review but I just couldn’t help it. READ. THIS. BOOK. You are sooooo gonna LOVE IT! And guess what? All this craziness, all these characters have a HUGE message for you if you know how to read between lines.

Enjoy the ride!



I wouldn’t trade mine either!

If you're a hater, guess what hater, you'll be hating.

If you're a lover...be prepared. Lock yourself into a room, get comfortable, have a drink by your side, shut off your phone, put a do not disturb sign on the door cause you are gonna be on one helluva ride.

Here are 6 easy steps before, during and after you get into Unbeautifully.

1. Breathe In, Breathe Out

2. Take your time reading the book. Don't rush yourself.

3. Breathe In, Breathe Out

4. Give yourself permission to show your emotions while reading the story. Just don't do anything to get yourself in trouble.

5. Breathe In, Breathe Out

6. Reread cause it will be a while till we get Unattainable(which I can't freakin wait for, Mad love for Teagan)

I'm not gonna spoil anything even if that's my name but I will say this, Fuckin A(while raising fist in air) can Madeline write a story.

*

*

*

*

Shit, this is hard to write without giving spoilers so here are little clues from the story...

*Some demons can take a long time to conquer

*Memories are not forgotten

*Assholes are assholes

*Love is a bitch

*The ripple effect is huge in this story

*Sex, yep it's in there and yep it's pretty damn hot


There are some of these type of moments:

*Fuck me, I didn't see THAT coming!

*Laugh Out Loud...there are plenty of those

*Don't do it Asshole!!!

*Fuck me, he did it

*Oh, bitch is gonna get it now


These are not good guys except for Blue, whatever he's done, he's forgiven and ZZ(sigh). You fuck with them or their families, you'll get their wrath. There was a scene that made me not like the horsemen too much. It's part of their way, not usually, but I visually saw it even if it didn't go into details. You know what happened.

Well that's all I got. Don't compare Madeline to any author out there. She's on a shelf of her own.

“All scars tell a story, beautiful girl”

Oh My GOD, another AMAZING fucking story that I absolutely LOVED. She wove her net and caught you completely, I am happy to say that even with my expectations so high, this so did not disappoint. Ripper and Danny were everything I have hoped for and more. We got to go back in time from the years that passed between the ending of Undeniable and the Epilogue, to see Deuce & Eva and how they got passed all that shit that was thrown their way, the back-story of Cage and Teagan, and god what the hell is gonna happen with Dorothy, Jase and Hawk ???? So freaking excited that there is so much more to cum!

I’m gonna keep this short, because really your just gonna have to jump in and live in their world and let them take you away, because this ain’t no fairytale, it’s a completely fucked up world that I’ve completely fallen in love with.

Ripper



Danny



and together they were

Hasty, impetuous, we were like lightning and tornados in a flurry of both excitement and agitation, making rapid, rash decisions, feeling, only feeling, never thinking, all the while heading face-first into a churning whirlpool of turmoil and not caring who we hurt along the way.

But fuck was it beautiful

“I wanna rip you the fuck open,” he said, breathing harder as his thrusts became brutal. “I want all of me inside all of you, not just my fuckin’ cock, baby, but all of me. All of you.”

“Yes,” she whimpered. “I want all of you.”

Sweet Jesus! I devoured every page of this biker badass book! ***pauses to catch her breath***



Unbeautifully was literally everything biker awesome that Undeniable was. Kudos to Ms Sheehan for never failing us.

This story picks up right after the Epilogue of Undeniable but then scoots back three years.....building you back up to present time. It's the story of Danny, Duece's daughter and Ripper, Master at Arms of the Hell's Horsemen MC Club. He's over a decade older than Danny, his face and torso horribly scarred from the assault by Frankie in Undeniable, and he's got a glass eye.....but he's still beautiful in Danny's eyes.

Everything changes for these two when Ripper shows up at Danny's prom to pick her up. Except she doesn't want to go home. Danny asks for him to put brotherhood aside....to make love to her. Their tumultuous love story begins from there.

The relationship between these two starts out as complete, unbridled lust- they physically cannot get enough of each other. They fuck, fuck, and top it off with a fuck....

“He looked down at his flaccid cock. "Congratulations," he said. "You've just fucked yourself to death

It's angsty...he's a brother, her father would kill him if he knew he was tapping Danny. Things have to remain quiet. But their combustible attraction cannot be denied....it won't take long until those stolen private moments, looks shared across the room start to uncover the truth. Ripper is torn between brotherhood loyalty to the Horsemen and his love for Danny. Not to mention he likely won't survive the wrath of Deuce once he finds out.

"I wanna rip you the fuck open," he said, breathing harder as his thrusts became brutal.
"I want all of me inside of you, not just my fucking cock, baby, but all of me."

I loved that this book had several stories in one. We got to see Deuce and Eva and their struggles post Frankie madness. How they work through their problems to an eventual happily ever after. We get the continuing saga of Jace, Dorothy, and Hawk (looking forward to their story in Undeniable #4). Cage (Danny's man-whore brother) and Tegan have a set-up for their story in Undeniable #3. ZZ..... well, no spoilers here but I want to see a HEA for this sweetie (he's Undeniable #5). I do have to say my favorite couple is Cox and Kami. They had me laughting out loud. She has him "by the balls" and it's refreshing to hear her banter, calling him a dumb Mexican, Cuban....everything BUT Puerto Rican. Cox was such a loyal good friend to Ripper- he deserved an Allison shout-out. This is a great series filled with a family of rough, dirty, illegal shit going-on but loyalty till the end. It is not for the faint at heart. There's rape, murder, abortionand everything dark but I still can't get enough of the Horsemen crew and their old ladies.

Loved Ripper. He's all scarred and knows he doesn't deserve Danny but he tried to walk away...he just kept getting drawn back. Nobody will have her. She's his lady. She's gonna be on the back of his bike....but he may be "put to ground" by her father before that dream comes to play..... But he's gonna try.

Loved Danny. She was young but she was tough. Ripper tore her heart. She did things she'd regret in its wake but her heart always belonged to him. She tried life outside of Ripper.... And failed.

It may not be philosophical and flowery, but Danny dear, no truer words have ever been said.......

4 Stars (Originally Read 11/3/2016)

3 Stars (Re-Read 9/20/2022)

Overall Opinion: This was an enjoyable read. If you want a grittier mc romance, this series is what you need! It definitely isn't rainbows and unicorns, but I still enjoyed it. There were some actions by the h that ticked me off, but otherwise I thought that the angst and connections were pretty spot on. This has a good bit of connection to the first book, Undeniable, because we get a lot of what is going on with Deuce and Eva in this one. I'm pretty sure this can be read as a stand alone, but I would recommend reading the first book to fully understand the dynamics in this one (and it was good anyways IMO and only $0.99 on Amazon right now ;D).

Re-Read Note: This is one that I've been wanting to re-read for a while now and finally jumped into. I think it was when I re-read Own the Wind (a good while ago) and it made me think of this because it has a similar premise -- daughter of mc president and mc member. It definitely is grittier! I just didn't necessarily like how much was about Deuce and Eva and I felt like it ended way too abruptly. I wanted to experience them as an actual outed couple! I also was really frustrated with how the h treated ZZ! I don't really think I'll re-read this one again because it didn't hold up quite as much as I'd hoped and I'm dropping my rating down to 3 stars.

Brief Summary of the Storyline: This is Danny and Ripper's story. Danny is the mc president's daughter, and Ripper is sent to pick her up from her disastrous prom. One thing led to another, and they end up spending the night together. Neither of them can deny the pull that they feel from that night, and they eventually give in and have a secret affair. There is some family and club drama, some hot sexy times, and a few sad and sweet moments too...and they get a HEA ending.

POV: This alternated between focusing on Danny, Ripper, Deuce, and Eva in 3rd person narrative. I did find it kind of odd that there was as much focus on Deuce and Eva as there was, but it worked somehow...

Overall Pace of Story: Good. I did skim very briefly during the club drama, but that is definitely a "just me" thing (because I always seem to do that with mc romances)! I thought it flowed well overall.

Instalove: Kind of. They connect instantly once they become physical, but I felt like it a was believable progression into stronger feelings.

H rating: 3.5 stars. Ripper. I felt really bad for his past trauma, and I liked the way he loved the h. I do wish he kept it in his pants during their separation .

h rating: 3 stars. Danny. I liked her, but then I had BIG issues with how she handled the H's return and treated ZZ.

Sadness level: Low/moderate. I teared up a few times, but I never needed any tissues.

Push/Pull: Yes The H is adamantly against coming out with their relationship, so in a way he pushes the h away emotionally. The H also pushes her away when some big drama goes down. They both pursue the relationship at times.

Heat level: Moderate. They have some hot chemistry and scenes, but not so much it takes away from the story.

Descriptive sex: Yes

Safe sex: Yes and no. Mentions of birth control and condom use (not always). The H mentioned never being without a condom, but no mention that I remember about the h's past practices (she does use a condom with OM) or STD statuses. The h does end up unexpectedly pregnant and has an abortion during their separation

OW/OM drama: Yes The h is another man's old lady when the H returns, and this causes a lot of drama. The H had a club whore that he was regularly with in the past, and she causes some drama too.

Sex scene with OW or OM: Yes There is a descriptive scene of the h and OM. There is mentions of the H's sexual activities, but I don't remember any descriptive details.

Cheating: Yes The h is another man's old lady when the H returns and she sleeps with the H. So, she cheated on the OM in my book.

Separation: Yes They are separated for ~1 year. They both have other partners during this time (H hooks up randomly and h becomes another man's old lady).

Possible Triggers: Yes 14 year age difference between h and H, H had been mutilated with a knife and is missing an eye (flashbacks), rape (flashbacks), violence/murder/drugs (harder but typical mc stuff), unexpected pregnancy, and abortion.

Closure: This had a cute jump ahead epilogue with a HEA ending.

How I got it: I paid the $3.99 on Amazon.

Safety: This one is probably Not Safe for the safety gals.

- Does have cheating
- Does have a descriptive sex scene with h and OM
- Does have the H pushing the h away
- Does have a ~1 year separation between the h and H
- Does have abuse (not by mcs)
- Does Not have OTT sad parts
- Does have a HEA ending

HOLY SHIT!!

I need a minute...

*sigh* ok where to start?

This book was AMAZEBALLS!!! I felt every emotion and then some. One moment I was laughing then the next I was gutted and right after I'd want to throw my tablet across the room. SO. GOOD. Definitely a stay up all night type of book.

Danny and Ripper's story is... Gut retching, scary, amazing, true, flawed, fucked up, intense, and ...Beautiful.

"You may not be beautiful the way you were before" I whispered, cupping his ruined cheek. "But you're still beautiful. To me."

18 year old Danny is trying to keep her family from falling apart but is losing herself in the process. All she wants is to have one night that is perfect... And she wants Ripper to make it happen.

"And then he heard it. Five little words that shut off his brain and spurred his body into action."Ripper," she whispered against his ruined skin. "Make my prom night perfect."

Ripper is emotionally and physically scared from his attack from Frankie. Even though Frankie is dead he isn't gone for Ripper. he can't let go of the horrific event that he still relives every time he looks in a mirror. But ripper does find some peace when he is with Danny.

"He suddenly couldn't remember a time he hadn't been staring into those beautiful icy blue eyes and not feeling completely at peace. Or maybe he just didn't want to remember anything before because nothing before her was worth remembering."

A lot of shit happens that makes them being together almost impossible but you must read to find out ;)

Also while reading UnBeautifully you meet a few new characters and continue to follow the ones you loved from Undeniable. One of my favorite things about UnB was that you got to see what was happening with Deuce and Eva, Jace and Dorothy, Cage and Tegan, as well as falling in love with Danny and Ripper.

I bow down to Madeline for making me fall in love with all these Asshole bikers and be ok with it. This book definitely isn't for everyone. But if you loved Undeniable you are going to freak the fuck out for UnBeautifully! <3

Babes. REEL. IT. IN.

[Courtney · Rating 5 out of 5]

As soon as I finished reading this - I sent Madeline a message and told her that because of this book I have to go on a reading sabbatical. She has ruined me for any and all books after this.

With that being said - I will try to make sure that my review does her book justice as to how FAN-FUCKING-TASTIC it is!!!

Unbeautifully is Danny & Ripper's story but we also get some more insights into Deuce & Eva's story. It is raw, real and filled with such intense emotions - crazy, scary, fucked-up and scarred. It is balls to the walls, hard-core action and sex-filled drama that I love!!

You will not find any other book that will have you flipping off the male characters and wanting to jump into bed with them next!!! There is absolutely nothing left out in this book - every chapter is just as important as the next.

Madeline has a way with her words that just sucks you into the story and has you feeling every word written! I literally cried with the characters!! And I seriously wanted to throw down with a few characters too!

Madeline has outdone herself with this book!! I didn't think it was possible - but she gets keeps getting better & better!! Unattainable had better come fast!!!

I am honored that Madeline has given me the opportunity to read and review this book early. You are one truly gifted woman!!

[Sharon ∞❥ is an emotional book junkie ❥∞ · Rating 4 out of 5]

Heed this well:

"Warning: This is not a story about fate or destiny. This is a story about pain, sorrow, and suffering."



Truer words have not be spoken. As with the first book, Undeniable, this book is dark and gritty. The author usually takes you to that extreme...almost the worst case scenario. That doesn't mean there aren't happy and sweet times, it just means they are far and few between.

I'm just going to start with my biggest complaint and it's that I feel cheated! While I wasn't sure how much I would like Ripper and Danny's story...I still wanted to read their story but what we got was half a story...if that. And while I'm not really complaining (not really!), I wasn't expecting almost half the book to be about Deuce and Eva.

I wanted more Ripper and Danny...heck, I WANT more Ripper and Danny. I feel like we barely got a taste and it's over. My only consolation is that if Unattainable follows the pattern, we'll get more Ripper and Danny in that book. Then I'll get to be mad about Cage and Tegen!!




This ...is their song! ♥

As far as Deuce and Eva are concerned, that killed me. I didn't want to read any more heartache about those two. And I certainly didn't want to read about what Deuce attempted to do....really??!! Could you imagine if Eva did that!! (Yes, Deuce is still a douchebag!) But...I understand how their relationship affected their family and consequently Danny. I mentioned in my review for Undeniable that I hope Deuce gets what's coming to him and he did...some. But I kind of forgive him a little, just a little, after he said this:

"But Jesus, Danny, who am I to be judgin’ anyone? Made my fair share of mistakes too. I spent too much time wantin’ a woman I kept lettin’ get away, and I don’t want that for you.”

Back to Danny and Ripper...I LOVE them!! Well, I did for the first fifty percent. How Ripper was with her was perfect...even if he was freaking out about Deuce. He was sooo loving that even I forgot about his scars...

“All scars tell a story, beautiful girl,” he said, releasing me to trace the marks on my stomach.[...]

“And mine,” he said softly, grabbing my hand, trailing my palm across his cheek and then his chest. “Tell the story of how I found you.”

Of course, things have to get effed up...no, not effed up, more like BLOWN ALL TO HELL!!



“Danny,” he said, glancing over his shoulder. “Shit just got real, baby.”

I really get what Ripper was doing to try to forget Danny but the way he left? My heart went out to Danny but then, of course, she has to do something unforgivable. (Wow...that was a bit intense!) The crazy part about all this is this kind of stuff goes on every day in the real world so why is it so shocking?

The interesting thing about this book is that all the different dramas had a trickle down effect. A lot of the old characters and some new ones were involved with each drama and most of them were left open ended. The fantastic thing is that MS will be writing more stories about those characters.

The book is really emotional. Again, with all the other dramas and especially with Danny and Ripper. One of my favorite parts is how they spoke to each other "silently". I LOVED that...especially the one at the end with Mama Vi. Ughhh...I just wanted more of them! I can't say that enough.



And speaking of Mama Vi...what happened with her? I was repulsed. Remember those worse case scenarios...well, this is one of them. Bad Dirty and Tap, BAD!!

Of course, the epilogue was wonderful and it was sorely needed. This book was rough and while it didn't have the shock value the first book had, there were still scenes that were hard to read. Thankfully, we didn't have to go through something happening with Ripper and someone else in the kitchen!


Favorite quotes:

♥ “Baby,” he said gruffly. “Man like me got no business with a girl like you. You’re nothin’ but f*ckin’ beauty and I’m a whole lot of f*ckin’ ugly who’s already halfway to hell.”

♦ "Maybe this was how his miserable life was finally going to end: death by p*ssy." (LMAO!)

♥ "He didn’t just want to f*ck her, he didn’t just want her in his bed…

He wanted her on the back of his bike."

♥ "Ripper was my rainstorm, my skin-drenching frenzy, where you couldn’t tell right from left, where all you could feel was the phenomenon exploding throughout your body, feverishly burning through you even as it pleasurably cooled."

4.5 Stars....


… but fuck, brother, you have been with me for eighteen loyal years now and that means you’re family.

Yep, this book was about family and when I started it I thought I was with this family …..




It was all the names, Jim-Bob, Ripper, John-Boy, Digger, Tick, Elizabeth, Hawk, Cage, Mary-Ellen, Grandma, Pop, Preacher …. I was confused.

BUT, I soon realized I was not on Walton Mountain, No Siree – this was a much darker place….


"I don’t believe in fate. I firmly believe that life is what you make of it, that life will react to your actions, and that your final destination has nothing to do with destiny but instead everything to do with the choices you make along the way.
With one exception.
Love.
There are not rules when it comes to love.
Love is not a reaction or an action; it is not a destiny or a choice.
Love is a feeling, a real, raw and unscripted emotion so sensationally pure, unable to dull even under the strain of a world against it, strong enough to heal the broken and warm even the coldest of hearts.
Innate.
Unavoidable.
Undeniable."








"He felt the walls of his world start to shake and the bricks began to fall … one-by one until it was a free-for-all and suddenly he could breathe again when he hadn’t even realized he’d been holding his breath. Breath he’d been holding for the last five years."



"HE WANTED HER ON THE BACK OF HIS BIKE …."






"If Ripper had learned anything in his thirty-something years of life, it was that dark roads only get darker if you stay on them, and his road was pretty damn dark."



Aw, Danny… don’t cry..



Aw, Cage, gotta love a …


"This is what big brothers are fuckin’ here for….. to pick their little sisters up when they fall the fuck down."



" This wasn’t love. It was hate. And love.
That fine line had been destroyed.
Mutilated."


"FUCK YOU! he roared as his fist shot out. The mirror shattered on impact.
Shattered.
Just like his fucking life."






"… And he kissed her.
And kissed her.
Fucking kissed her.
Kissed the fucking shit out of her.
Kissed her the way he’d been wanting to kiss her since he’d left her.
“Fuck,” he muttered in between kisses. Suffocating, nearly violent kisses that were growing harder, even more demanding."

OH, MY, RIPPER!

"Jesus. Why couldn’t he had had boys? All boys. Little fucking shits like Cage. A whole slew of ‘em he could throw condoms at and be done with it."

LOL, Deuce, know what you mean – not sure I could have handled a daughter myself!!




"He didn’t hate me. He didn’t even hate Ripper. He wasn’t even mad. He was disappointed. I had disappointed him.
It was infinitely worse. "

Yep, worst feeling ever, the thought that you had disappointed your parents!



"Life may not always go the way you’d planned, you may not have the perfect family, you may not be the most beautiful, but that doesn’t mean you can’t make the best of what you do have. My father wasn’t perfect, far from it. He’s made a lot of mistakes and I had no doubt he was going to make a lot more. But he was mine and I wouldn’t trade him for the world."

I really loved catching up with Deuce and Eva in this book …


…. And just when I thought everything was gliding towards a nice, happy ending… guess who the fuck shows up???



"I had to live.
I had to see him.
I had to tell him I loved him.
I had to live. "


Well, it all kinda ended suddenly after SHE showed up… but I didn't mind 'cos my head was spinning from all that went on and trying to remember who was who.

Yes, it is gritty, violent, the language is dreadful but I did like it.

Yes, It is Digger Ripper and Danny’s story but it is also the story of Deuce and Eva… so kinda like two for the price of one!
Enjoy it.

I seriously did not like the intimation of a “gang-bang” with Vi, really don’t think that was necessary. See deep down I am a prude and a nice person….

Silence. That is all that surrounds me once I finished reading the last page of UnBeautifully because….

1.) It is 2:00a.m. in the fucking morning.

2.) My whole being is so damn full of emotions that I fear that if I should cry, shout, run around naked playing the trombone and profess my undying loyalty and love for Madeline in such a sweet vulgar way, that I will be pimping new bracelets which would be provided by the lovely local law enforcements.

Wow! Son of a motherless goat that was fanfuckin’ragingcrazyBLOWMYMINDtastic!! (Yes that is all one word!)

UnBeautifully was Beautifully written and done so perfectly well that I am pronouncing Madeline as a fucking GENUIS! A Beautiful, loving, sexy, crazy, Russian looking, Queen of Vulgaria GENUIS!!

I’m not going to go on about the storyline because I truly…TRULY feel like I just can’t do it justice and knowing my fucking luck I will put a spoiler in there and have y’all kicking and probably murdering my ass. So I will say this…

UnB picks up where UnD leaves off and if y’all wanted more raw, real, angst, love and heartache then y’all are going to cream y’alls breeches because Mad delivers big time. UnB will have you laughing your fucking ass off, heart bursting with love, heart shattering when *** and *** happens, shocked because *** & *** have something going on, wanting to kick some major ass on ***, crying and hoping that *** & *** will be okay.

All the characters are fucking amazing (even the crazy ass character ***. Straight up cray cray!). We not only get Ripper and Danny’s story but others as well. I am so looking forward to Cage and Tegen’s book (is it ready RC?) and I so wish Kami and Cox were real and had their own reality show because I would so watch that shit.

If UnDeniable didn’t leave you having biker lust/fever than I can promise you this…you will have it so fucking bad after UnBeautifully.

*I am tempted to get Mad’s face tattooed on my back with her name going around my neck. And instead of tears tattooed on my face, I will get mini shanks. One with the initials UFG & the other with RC with a Hello Kitty design.*

Until next time…assjuice guzzlers

Happy Reading :)

(^^ add scars!)

I abso-fucking-lutely love these books!!! And Unbeautifully delivered to the nth degree!

Five Rip-Roaring, Motherfucking, Unbeautiful Stars!



I feel the need to include a little warning in my reviews of Madeline's books, to those who aren't familiar with the Undeniable series.
If you are a fan of fluffy romance, chick lit and opposed to bad language, violence and other unmentionables, these books will not be for you.



Madeline holds nothing back in her books. Think gang rape, murder, 'fuck' in every sentence and a whole lot more. I totally get that this won't be for everybody, but personally, it totally fascinates me and I can't get enough of them.

After all the shit they'd gone through - the pain, the loss, the heartache, the straight up evil brutality that made them question everything they'd thought to be true and had nearly driven them apart for good - he knew he'd do anything for her. Steal anything, kill anyone, be anyone.

I've always had a real morbid fascination with dark, sociological, criminal underworld kinds of stories, so for me, this hits every spot. But it's certainly not everyone's bag. So I would strongly advise you not to read these books if you don't think you can cope with the unconventional, gritty, violent, raw content.

Love is a feeling, a real, raw, and unscripted emotion so sensationally pure, unable to dull even under the strain of a world against it, strong enough to heal the broken and warm even the coldest of hearts.
Innate.
Unavoidable.
Undeniable.

Ok, that said, I could read these books alllll day long!

I love the dialogue, the flow, the characters, the ease at which the author tells the story, the alternating POVs and between first and third person. All of it. It just works! And then some. It's one of those you'll be reading while you're cooking/drying your hair/making the coffee. It's one of those books that will make you great at doing everything one handed.

"I love her," he rasped, his eyes on Danny. "You want me to beg, I'll fuckin' beg. I'll do whatever I gotta do if it means she keeps breathin'."

The characters; I feel like I know them all so well. Madeline Sheehan does a fantastic job of building a whole network of detailed, life-like characters.

I loved that Eva and Deuce's story continued within Unbeautifully. It was great to have those gaps filled in and read more of them.

And Ripper and Danny's story was gripping.



It was fast paced, hot and heavy, original and real! A story where opposites attract and beautiful is discovered in a whole heap of fugly!

He didn't just want to fuck her, he didn't just want her in his bed...
He wanted her on the back of his bike.
Yeah, he wanted to lay claim to Danielle West, ink his name on her body and slap an old lady patch on her ass. And worse, he wanted the world to know it.

These are the characters that you know you should hate, but can't help but love. These aggressive, trigger-happy, rebellious, can't-keep-their-dick-in-their-pants, foul mouthed, badass bikers, who work their way straight into your heart.

"I'm tryin' to figure out whether I'm gonna slap some sense into you or fuck the shit outta you."

I'd let any one of 'em put me on the back of their bikes!!

When I first read UnDeniable I thought, now here is a book that is honest, raw and a true page-turner. I honestly didn’t think Madeline could top herself. I mean, if you’ve read UnDeniable, you know what I mean. I.WAS.WRONG.

UnBeautifully is the heart wrenching, scarred, frustrating, intense and ultimately BEAUTIFUL story of Danny & Ripper. Once again, we have a book where chapter after chapter is action packed. There is NO FILLER in this book. Every single word written is relevant and important. I really wanted to take my time and soak in all that is happening – and trust me, there is SO much going on.

In UnBeautifully, you get the POV’s of Danny, Ripper, Eva & Deuce. In my mind, that was a GENIUS move. You get to be inside the head of all 4 of them and this gives you such a great perspective. There were times while reading that I just felt SO DEEPLY their emotions & got so connected to each and every character. Madeline is truly a talented writer to be able to suck me in and feel so much for these fictional characters that she has brought to life for me.

I’m truly honored that Madeline allowed me to read/review this early. She pours her heart, soul, blood and tears into EVERY book she writes and it shows – BOY OH BOY does it show.

THANK YOU MADELINE SHEEHAN FOR SHARING THIS FUCKING AWESOME MASTERPIECE.

4 HELL'S HORSEMAN STARS.



Where do I begin to talk about my feelings for this story. I'm not sure there are words to fit, I'm exhausted after my Madeline Sheehan book workout. This author certainly knows how to draw out every single emotion possible from her readers. I think I'll start where the other did with the most enchanting prologue I've ever read ...

“Love is a feeling, a real, raw, and unscripted emotion so sensationally pure, unable to dull even under the strain of a world against it, strong enough to heal the broken and warm even the coldest of hearts.
Innate.
Unavoidable.
Undeniable.
And sometimes, love is unconventional and it breaks all the rules and blurs all the lines and basks in its glory, shining as bright as the sun, unapologetically glowing even under the narrowed stares of society and its screaming, self-righteous morals, berating and judging that which it doesn’t understand.”

'Unbeautifully' is unbelievably raw, moving, emotional, gritty, gut wrenching, soul searching, intense, perfectly flawed and filled to the brim and over flowing with Horseman style drama.

This is a powerful, ugly, yet somehow beautiful tale of life, love and loyalty. Once again the author takes the reader front and centre stage into the lives of the Hell's Horseman Motorcycle club.

Danielle 'Danny' west daughter of the president of the notorious club is having difficulties finding her own way in life, everything seems to falling apart around her, throw into the mix her attraction for Erik 'Ripper' Jacobs, Sergeant in arms for the club and you've got the start of a tale of two with plenty to keep you entertained in between.

Ripper is carrying the burden of a past that has left him disfigured angry and unable to move forward. This unbeautifully, beautiful couple find a way to erase what should not be,and find comfort and hope with each other, but completing this journey takes more than its toll. An epic story of love and the aching possibility of a future for Danny and Ripper - pain, heartache and trials follow this couple like a curse and my heart was hanging on to all hope that it would be worth it for this couple to be together right till the last page.

This story is an eye opener and packs a lot into four plus hours of reading. The story is certainly not for the faint hearted. The author sums up the warning of what the book entails so I suggest you check that out before reading.

My final thoughts:
This novel hosts a book full of regrets, pain and ugly truths, it highlights a world of brutality and a community of men and women who fight hard for their survival and people they love.



All in all Strangely I was enthralled with this gritty love tale and i devoured it in one sitting, I'm looking forward to see what this author will do next. There is no doubt that this author can write, as a taster check out these 'unbeautifully' beautiful quotes:

❤❤“Baby,” he said, “listen to me. I ain’t beautiful, you are. You’re so damn beautiful you got it spillin’ out all over the place, blindin’ you into thinkin’ I’m beautiful when I ain’t. Farthest thing from it.”

❤❤“Ripper was my rainstorm, my skin-drenching frenzy, where you couldn’t tell right from left, where all you could feel was the phenomenon exploding throughout your body, feverishly burning through you even as it pleasurably cooled.”

❤❤“All scars tell a story beautiful girl....mine tell the story of how I found you.”

❤❤“You’re my reason, Deuce … You always have been.”

4 RIPPER AND DANNY STARS.

Five......'Holy fuckin' cow, what did I just read?, can I have my mind back please?........well deserved stars....



Are there any words to describe the feelings I had reading this book? How can an author have the ability to write about things in life that on the surface can only be described as raw and ugly nightmares, but yet she somehow turns them into something 'beautiful'?

'Unbeautifully' is Ripper and Danny's story. It's not a fairy tale story. its not a 'boy meets girl, boy falls in love with girl, and they ride off into the sunset. It's not about hearts and flowers or sweet love songs. As the author warned very clearly at the beginning....."this is a story about pain, sorrow, and suffering......love blossoms in a secret world full of crime, violence, and death"

Like 'Undeniable', it's a story full of bad mouthed, dirty talking bikers, and therefore, as expected, these bikers live in a world where drama follows them around. Bikers who certainly take the term 'alpha male' to a totally different level. Ripper and Danny's story is as the author warns "about what can be born from nightmares"... And I have to say I loved every freaking minute of this crazy arsed ride!!!

Ripper and Danny's story started where 'Undeniable' left us. It's the story of Danny; young, beautiful, sweet daughter of Deuce, the president of the Hell's Horsemen Motor Cycle club. Danny, who despite growing up surrounded by tough biker men is still living a fairly innocent, carefree life, a life that includes high school proms and 'hello Kitty' merchandise.

It's also the story of Ripper, broken and now scarred, both on the inside and on the outside, Sergeant of Arms in the Hell’s Horsemen MC Club, who's life has become that of nightmares, a life full of trauma.

You couldn't have two more different people, one is like the sunshine and one is like the shadows but what happens when the sunshine and the shadows collide?



What happens when Ripper, the man who was ready and willing to die, who has tasted nothing but pain for what seems like an eternity suddenly gets a taste of something sweet?



Please believe me when I say if you are looking for lovey, dovey romance, roses and white picket fences and love scenes that are sweet and tender...... then you're looking in the wrong place. This is a beautifully written love story, a love story that will pull you in and hold onto to you until the very end. But its not a love story in any conventional sense. It's laced with pain, suffering and loss. There is a whole lot of drama and lots of intense, animalistic fucking but lets be realistic here....this is a motor cycle club and these are bad mouthed bikers who are part of the criminal underworld....... so it was never going to be the next Romeo and Juliet!!!!.

Things happened in this story that shocked me, things happened that broke my heart, things happened that I could not remotely understand nor connect with and some things happened that I unfortunately could. This author has written a story that will challenge many people's views, a story that is both thought provoking and so utterly gripping but wether you as a reader agree with the things that occur or not, underneath it all, it was a love story.

A love story that reminded me that life isn't aways a fairy tale, nothing is ever straightforward, people are forced to make difficult and hurtful decisions, and people make both right and wrong choices but sometimes if you want to see the rainbow, you have to get though a shit load of rain.



Just sit back and enjoy the ride baby!!!!!!



Thanks to my Haven Hotties for reading Danny and Rippers story with me x♥x

[It's just me Shelly B · Rating 4 out of 5]

“He wasn’t the kind of guy you went to dinner and a movie with. He was the kind of guy who dragged you out of the lake, shoved you down on the ground, growling and groping you, telling you all the dirty things he wanted to do to you…and then did them."

HELL YEAH...that's what I'm talking about!!!!!!!!!!

Ripper........he is scarred up physically and emotionally. He is a badass biker and he is soooooooo damn fine!!!!!!!!! I can't even elaborate much more but I will tell you this scars or no scars that man is HAWT!!!!!!!

Danny........The MC President's daughter. She young, cute and in love with a bad boy!!!!!!!

“Ours was the furthest thing from a picture-perfect romance; it was more of a car crash, a metal-bending, blood-splattered disaster that left no survivors, only bad memories and heartache. But it was ours."



Is this book a hearts and flower romance novel.........Hell No It's Not!!!

Is this book as psycho crazy and Deuce and Eva's book.......Sadly no!!!!!

So what is this book? This book is a great love story about looking past what is on the outside and loving a person for what they are not what they look like.

"Everything has beauty. Even the ugly. Especially the ugly.
Because without ugly there would be no beauty.
Because without beauty we would not survive our pain, our sorrow, and our suffering. And in the world I lived in, the world he lived in, a secret world within the world, a world of of constant crime and cruel, cold, death, there was almost nothing but suffering."

This book is the 2nd book in this series I absolutely love all these characters. I was so happy and sad to get to see Deuce and Eva again......they have been through some rough times. I was kind of hoping for another crazy book like Undeniable but I will say this book fit these two characters perfectly. I can't wait for the next book!!!

If you haven't started this series yet GET ON IT!!!!!!!!!!



Scars or not I love you Ripper....and I don't care how many spoilers V has to hide stuff in, I will out right say it...you are MINE:))))

Buddy read with Vishous and Rachel!!!!!!
