➦📚Sway is the typical young Henchmen who has been sleeping around, and making his way through Shady Valley’s Female’s …… and lord let’s just say that when Sway is around the members of the clubhouse need tons of constant use of anti-bacterial wipes and spray … Cuz Given the opportunity he will use every vertical surface in the clubhouse for all his sexual Antics.
💘💘Shady Valley’s Sister Club Requested help to track down a Gunmaker who skip town with 40K and without finishing the job … So of course, It just seemed more logical to send out coach and Sway to go find Murphy’s hideout. Due to the fact that Murphy was tracked to some remote location In California……. And Let me just say once Sway and Coach were sent out to find Murphy things got very Interesting…..
➦📚Murphy was hired by the Golden Glades Henchmen to build custom guns for one of their clients, only thing is Murphy’s past has come to bite her in the ass….
💘💘Murphy has gone her entire adult life without attachments. The closest relationship she ever had was with her dogs, for good reasons……… So, Murphy was more concern about her past catching up with her then her jobs timeline….. so she took her dogs to her safehouse In the middle of nowhere off the grid.
Idk for sure how JG does it, with each new book she keeps things fresh & interesting, usually introduces us to great secondary characters. With that said …I really can’t wait to see what her plans are with these new members

Yes, that's exactly what I needed today.
A book by one of my all-time favorite authors ❤️
I wasn't doing so well mentally today, so I thought, what always helped me when I'm not feeling so well in the past, I needed a distraction.
Of course, that would be a book by one of my favorite authors, and as if she knew what I needed, I have I got an ARC from Jessica Gadziala.
Shady Valley Henchmen is definitely one of my favorite series by her.
This book is an excellent example of why I love this MC romance series so much.
The characters are so damn unique and intriguing.
The story is exciting, gripping, and unbelievable dramatic.
Don't let me start with how amazing badass the heroine in the story is.
And of course, the outlaw biker, Sway🔥🥰
He's the real deal.
Stubborn, smart and notorious bachelor.
With a past that has given him an insight into women's world and their behavior in all sorts of situations.
He knows how to read women.
He's like a sunshine in the room full of shadows and the epitome of a good mood.
Until he meets the woman who seems to be the ice queen for the outside world and a very lonely girl on the inside, Murphy.
She's the shadow, the bad mood and I'm feeling much better alone, kind of girl.
Yes, the exact opposite of him.
And it's so entertaining to read how the two approach each other.

The Shady Valley Henchmen are growing and developing into a fantastic collection of characters. In this book, we learn more about resident playboy Sway, whose antics in the kitchen (and elevator and basically every flat and vertical surface in the clubhouse, for that matter) warrant constant use of anti-bacterial wipes. When he and Coach are sent out to find some guy named Murphy who has failed to deliver the special custom guns one of their clients ordered, they are in for a surprise. Not because they finally locate Murphy holed up way off the grid in the middle of a lot of wooded acreage, but that Murphy is one of the hottest women he’s ever laid eyes on (and he’s seen a lot of babes in his time). Murphy’s reputation as one of the country’s premier custom gun designers has taken a bit of a hit due to her need to flee her usual home because somebody is hunting her. The story follows up on who she’s hiding from and why and ohmygod, it’s quite a tale.
Thrilling, horrifying and heart-thumpingly good, we also get our well-deserved dose of Henchmen-style family loyalty.
Another awesome addition to the series!

These Shady Valley characters are really starting to take tops spots for who I want to read next. Loved Sway and Murphy! Story was amazing. And the new characters are even more intriguing!

Again, with another heroine that blows me away. This author writes some of the best women characters... This time we have Murphy who is a weapon designer. I love that the author holds no bounds to what the women can do in her books.
We are back in Shady Valley for Sway's story which was really Murphy's story :) I can be in an absolute reading funk and when I get a new JG book, I just devour it. Her stories just speak to me and always make me laugh..

Oh my gosh. That ending was perfect.
I loved this so fucking much. Sway is hilarious, and hot. Murphy is grumpy and a total badass.
I love their total awkwardness when it comes to their relationship. 😂

Sway had me from day one.
Sway and Murphy are so opposite it shouldn't work. Yet they are perfect together.
Sway is larger than life, a dirty flirty one for all kind of guy who doesn't discriminate with women. He loves them all.
Murphy is our quiet bird. Wary, doesn't trust and spent the better part of 10 years on her own, isolated I'm her own hellish nightmare.
These two worked because they are so opposite. It's sweet because she calmed his crazy and he had her shinning a little brighter.
I adored their bickering, banter and moments of epic sweetness and saucy goodness.
The side characters as always pack a punch having me laughing hard and loving harder.
This journey is a wild one filled with a little action, suspense, heartbreak and a whole love of fun loving, learning and exploring.
Sway and Murphy did not disappoint. Another one for the win in this series. I'm looking forward to who comes next!.

Sway and Murphy such a cool mix. Murphy is exactly what Sway needed. I enjoyed how they were both not very good being in a relationship. The best part was they both knew it, acknowledged it out loud and with each other. They worked through awkward stuff together. There wasn't any couple angst but the subject of trafficking was addressed with the characters helping to stop it.
I was glad that a number of other characters were involved in the story such as Riff and Raff which I would like more of them both. Now Cohen needs his own HEA.

Sway is the fourth book in the Shady Valley Henchmen series by Jessica Gadziala. Although each book can be read as a standalone, they’re all great and have many of the same characters. This is Sway and Murphy’s book.
Murphy is used to living alone depending on no one but herself, especially since her father died. She’s quiet and doesn’t trust easily, but feels safe the moment she meets Sway.
Sway is a great guy who is laid back and loves to party. Meeting Murphy brings out his protective side and makes him think about the future for the first time.
Murphy and Sway are super cute. Neither of them have been in a relationship before, so they are both a little nervous and unsure about being together.
I like the new prospect Rook, and I am excited to read future books about the still single Henchmen. I hope we get to see more of Cohen in the future, especially if his kind of expertise is needed.
As always, a great book by JG. She’s an automatic read author for me and I cannot wait to see what she releases next.

Murphy can take care of herself.
I loved it and if you give it a read then you will too. Seat finally out his wild ways behind him once he sets eyes on Murphy.

Perfect for each other
Sway found his perfect match. She is the total opposite of him. He brings out so much in her and gives her a life she never realized she wanted. This was such a good book !

Another brilliant story
Murphy is a gun designer, everyone thinks she’s a man so Sway is quite happy after his initial surprise on finding her after tracking her down, because his club needs the gun she’s designing. He’s really taken with her.
There’s a few problems of course and it becomes a great story with interesting characters and really well written.

Sway the playboy who knew…
Sway finds himself with other club brothers tracking down a gun maker only to find things aren’t as they seem. Can he find a way to keep himself in check and do his job maybe but when things come out in the open with the elusive weapons maker he gets closer and more emotionally involved.

So cute and fun
Who doesn't like a woman who is her own white knight. I loved the h so much. I enjoyed watching her build relationships. I hope Cohen eventually joins the mc. And as always, the epilogue was amazing.

I am in LOVE with Sway and Murphy!! Probably to be honest more Murphy than Sway because lets be real here, who doesnt fall in love with a bada$$ QUEEN who builds her own specialty we8p0ns and does other killer things later on that just make my jaw drop?
Murphy does come with her own set of serious problems. She has been chased across California by a super bad guy for refusing to get involved with him and then making him increasingly angry, but I love, Loved her personality, her attitude and her ability to care no matter what she's been through.
Sway is the typical man who sleeps around, making his way through Shady Valley without a purpose other than belonging to the next generation of Henchmen and doing whatever Slash asks him to do next. So when he gets sent out to find Murphy (obvs thinking she's a man), he just gathers his stuff and goes.
Then things get complicated, and a whole heck of a LOT OF FUN!😉 Miranda and Samantha are perfection, even if they do fall in love with Sway far too quickly in my opinion. I loved their road trip, Sway's gentle questioning of Murphy, and Murphy's grouchy realization that she might want far more from Sway. Sway's ability to safely retrieve her from her dream space without either of them getting hurt is key here, and I really think the amount of attention Ms. Gadziala paid to Murphy's trauma and the steps she took to protect herself shows her depth and breadth as an author.
There are some parts of this book that could be hard for some to deal with, but Ms. Gadziala does an excellent job preparing the reader ahead of time, and the care and attention shown by the side characters - Morgaine, Crow, and all the other members of the Shady Valley family show that they're not only paying attention to Murphy for her special abilities.
The epilogue is wonderful, and I'm reminded over and again why Jessica Gadziala will always be my unicorn author!

4 Sway & Murphy Stars
Sway is the fourth book in the Shady Valley Henchmen Series by Jessica Gadziala.
I've been waiting for Sways story and how he was going to fall haha
I wasn't disappointed I loved his story
One thing that got me was at the start they were more like friends and the chemistry was off the charts but it did get better and in the end I loved their story. I would have liked more on the secondary characters especially Cohen.
Overall I recommend though.

I didn’t like this one as much as Slash’s story.
I just didn’t find Sway all that scary. He was more the jokester and seemed to lack personality. And unfortunately so did Murphy. Maybe it was their upbringings but I didn’t feel the relationship.
And the kidnapping trope has been done to death in these Henchmen series. I know it’s relative to Biker world but it’s almost every book. So predictable.

French & English reviews
Une romance presque grumpy / sunshine de bikers sexy et amusante que j'ai lu avec plaisir et un de mes tomes favoris dans la série !
Je dois avouer que, comme on a vu Sway coucher avec la moitié de la planète, j'avais du mal à l'imaginer avoir une relation sérieuse ... Et en fait j'ai ADORE le voir avec Murphy !! Leur première rencontre (quand il pensait que c'était un homme xD), la façon dont il tombe amoureux d'elle et elle aussi, leurs difficultés et leurs doutes comme ils n'ont jamais eu de "vraies relations sérieuses" ... Et bien sûr, le fait qu'il soit si "sunshine" et elle si grognon était parfait !
Mention spéciale pour Murphy qui est exactement mon type d'héroïne : mignonne, originale (elle crée des armes pour le marché noir !) mais aussi tellement forte vu ce qu'elle a vécu (son passé est tellement horrible ...)
L'intrigue était également passionnante avec son stalker qui était un tel monstre (et j'ai adoré la façon dont ça se conclue !)
Et bien sûr, l'épilogue était adorable avec leurs enfants xD
Bref, une romance grumpy / sunshine avec des bikers et un brin sombre que j'ai dévoré !
PS : bien sûr que j'adorais un tome avec Cohen =)

An almost grumpy / sunshine romance sexy and fun with bikers that I read with pleasure and one of my favorite booksin the series !
I have to admit that, since we saw Sway sleeping with half the planet, I had a hard time imagining him having a serious relationship ... And finally I LOVED seeing him with Murphy !! Their first meeting (when he thought she was a man xD), the way he falls in love with her and her too, their difficulties and their doubts as they never had "real serious relationships" ... And of course, the fact that he was so “sunshine” and she was so grumpy was perfect !
Special mention for Murphy who is exactly my type of heroine : cute, original (she creates weapons for the black market !) but also so strong given what she has experienced (her past is so horrible ...)
Theplot was also exciting with her stalker who was such a monster (and I loved the way it concluded !)
And of course, the epilogue was adorable with their kids xD
In short, a grumpy / sunshine romance with bikers and a bit of darkness that I devoured !
PS: of course I'd love a book with Cohen =)

Sway
An interesting couple. He's the quintessential manwhore who loves women and she's an antisocial shut in.
“We must have looked weird together. Him, all ease and smiles. Me, all tension and glares.”
There are several of these types of men in this author's work who turn in their manwhore cards for a steady relationship. It's a mystery as to why they are attracted to the women they end up with. Cyrus is the other one I'm thinking of. Both the MFCs for these two books are quiet and introverted - not at all the kind that would hang out at club parties. So on top of finding different kinds of women, I think the guys are getting older (growing up). But maybe equally important is the community around them is changing. The manwhores aren't the first ones in the group to fall into monogamy, but the others around them start to and maybe they just absorb the reasons why.
Another sex trafficker gets sent to hell in this story. As usual, thanks to the author for telling these stories. They need to be told so people remember that human trafficking isn't just numbers and statistics, it's actually human beings being put into the worst kinds of slavery.

Each time I read a new book by Jessica Gadziala, I say "this is the best one yet!" and then she releases a new one... Absolutely loved Murphy and Sway, but def a girl crush on Murphy. She loves her white knight and that he wants to rescue her, but she absolutely can do it herself. And Sway gave her the family she wanted. Sway himself is great, going from "to the window to the walllll" to absolutely being in it with Murphy. I always appreciate when the realism is acknowledged of "hey, I've never done this relationship thing, I know I'll mess up, but I want to try. I want to try for you". Absolutely loved it. I think Dezi, Pagan, and Cyrus will always be my #1s, but can't help but appreciate the others too

a good one
This one had an interesting plot and new character were added to the club family. I enjoyed every minute of it. The characters just grab you and the next thing you know … the last page is read. A weapons building inventor has disappeared without completing a contract for the MC’s sister club. Sway is sent to get the inventor, the deposit money or the weapons. They are surprised by the inventor and discover she has a stalker she is running from which is why the contract is not fulfilled. As always, these guys come to the aid of the gorgeous woman. There is a kidnapping, a battle, and a wonderful conclusion. The epilogue is a great ending. Highly recommend. HEA, no cheating, no cliffhanger.

Good story as always, yet I kind of had it with how the girls always are in dddeeeeppp trouble and get abused even though they are mostly strong and can get themselves out of it (Murphy and morgain).
I was also curious to know what with the obsession over Murphy? What was his plan? Like he wanted to break her or take her because he is fascinated, Unfortunately, I can't anymore know.
Still, there might be a story for cohan in the future

2.5 rounded up. After the 3rd in this series in a row I’m seeing too many author quirks (like the word cleft to talk about labia) and the pattern is just annoying.
There’s always foreboding warnings to try and ramp up tension but it’s just too heavy handed for me to care. Also everyone is “new at relationships” and starts out not wanting kids only to have the same exact epilogue and all get knocked up. Maybe if you don’t read them back to back it wouldn’t be as noticeable but I need a break.
