Savage Wild
VP of the Iron Dragons MC, Talon has a reputation for being ice cold. He runs the club's stable of hookers and brings in stolen goods from Europe, keeping the women safe and his club making bank. He's smart, and he's ruthless, and he doesn't let emotions cloud his judgment, especially after a chance encounter leaves him owing a debt he doesn't know how to repay.
Shot of her cheating ex-husband, Jenna has forged a new identity for herself, her fascination with motorcycles and the men who ride them not only a joke among her friends, but also her livelihood. She's warm, and she's funny, and she longs for a man to help her find emotions she lost a long time ago, especially after a chance encounter leaves her with a new sense of adventure and self-respect.
When Jenna and Talon cross paths, the heat between them scorches, but can they overcome the long buried past that stands between them?

Good start to a new series.
This book made me smile, roll my eyes, *sigh* deep, swoon & root for the underdog.
My most favorite things:
1) The characters- How they talked/their exchanges, the variety of ages, how they saw & treated Jenna & Cass... I liked a lot about them. And Jenna's relationship with Cass was one I envied!
2) The mini KA vibe- The length of the story, the interesting bit of backstories for each character, the solid relationships the main characters had with their family (blood or not)... it was reminiscent of KA storytelling & I liked that!
My two big beefs:
1) Too many POVs- I LOVE alternating POVs but prefer them alternating between just the Hero & heroine. More than that & it becomes distracting & the story, choppy at times. I understand the need to set things up for future characters & plot lines but doing too much of that detracts from the Hero & heroine of the current book... And that ain't cool because I want the spotlight to be on them!
2) The time it took for Talon & Jenna to come together- I think it wasn't until the 60ish% mark that he finally recognized her from years ago & then BOOM!, suddenly wanted her..? Ugh. I just wasn't thrilled about having to read about them being with other partners. On the flip side though, I was pleased as punch that they both did it. #GoJenna
I think Gate & Anna's book is up next but I'm really looking forward to Ryder's, Nine's & Maker/Lizzy's stories the most! :)

New author for me, yet a great introduction to her works, however I have a few niggles.
overall the book was well written and had a great story line but for me it was far to busy, there were so many characters introduced that it was hard to keep up and I felt overshadowed what this was about which was the romance between Jenna and Talon, the ending sucked big time, there was enough material there to make many more chapters so why condense it into an epilogue ??? I loved the cast of bikers introduced from Tank and Gage to Deuce, a few of the story lines reminded me of other books but I suppose that's the nature of writing you run out of ideas. I do hope the series continues because what I did read I enjoyed just those few niggles let it down for me

Enjoyed this
I must admit I found this a little hard gong at first. There was a lot going on and there were so many people's perspectives to take into consideration, but once I got into the writing style I absolutely loved it.
The club dynamics were so well structured, and Jenna was, for a change, a well established, successful woman who Talon didn't try and change.
Great story. Can't wait to read the next one.

Interesting start to a new series. I really enjoyed the story lots of introductions to other characters and their potential mates. I did think that the h/H finally coming together and forgiveness was a bit rushed.
I hope that this author has the other books in progress and we don't have to wait a year or two to read.

Excellent despite the choppy ride
This book is a fine star even with a lot of characters. One thing that bothered me most was introduction to so many fine characters, which really isn't all that bad. I'm looking forward to much more from this author.

Amazing!
Fabulous book. Great story, brilliant characters and a brotherhood full of love, loyalty and dedication. I can not wait to read about whoever is next-and there are at least six of them that I really really can't wait to get my hands on, so to speak!!

A Wild Ride
This book is like a mini series of a SOA. Written from many different POVs. It's a love story obviously but there is so much other stuff that happens, never a dull moment. I would love to see this series continue

Talon
I loved the family feeling being there for each other when you really couldn't depend on blood loving and respecting so deep. Have someone who will give their life for you and you for them.

Good
This is very different from what I'm used too and I didn't hate it. Can't wait to read more. I wanna see how Cassie story plays out.
