This is book two in the series

This book is amazing, but I would recommend to read book one before you start reading book two cause otherwise it will probably not make sense since it built on the story.

In this book we get to read more about their past and lot of backstory but also many plot twists which you’ll not see coming😌😌
We will also get to meet a new and very special character, since there will be a lot of story between him and Ray.
Also this book is bit more spicier🫢🫢😌

As we know ray is a huge badass and a very strong woman, who did have a quit difficult past, but she still made the best out of it. And as we know she’s willing to do anything for her family and loved ones.

And short thought to this new character we met…
He is made for her, he couldn’t be more perfect for her…
There is so much chemistry between these two 🤭

Thoughts to this book:
I loved this and had a lot of fun reading this…I did giggle a few times reading this, so not only do you get to read a very interesting and suspense story but also a quite funny one…
I loved this series and love the carachters 😩
So if you want to read smth funny but also full of suspense and unpredictable plot twist this one is for you and do yourself the favor and read this 😌

Can’t wait for book 3 🤩🤩🤩

Thank you for the arc🫶🏼🖤

4.5/5 ⭐️

HOLY CRAP Y’ALL. I loved this second installment of the story. So much more character growth, background, and world building. Ray and Steel are LEGENDS. The banter between characters is still wildly entertaining and the love and respect everyone has for each other is just the best. Even more spice this time and MC bloody action.

I cannot recommend this series enough. Totally worth read and the story keeps getting better and better 🥰🖤 Read this now and become members of the “Twatwaffle Club” like the rest of us 🤪😂

I definitely stayed up all night to read this and there isn’t an ounce of regret.

Here’s a few things to know:

1. Steel should come with a warning label. You will be all sorts of hot and bothered. It’s inventible. 🥵😘

2. Ray is even more bad ass, I wasn’t sure that was even possible because she’s so amazing. Harley can write a fabulous heroine, you will either want to be here or fuck her. Or both. 🫶🏼🫶🏼

3. ☀️ - OMFG it’s the freaking cutest. IYKYK.

4. Book hangover is fucking REAL. I am questioning what to do now while I wait… 😭

5. Thank you Harley for these wonderful, amazing, beautiful, hilarious, and genuine characters 🖤🖤🖤

This second instalment does not hold back!

Packed with with twists and turns, Ray and Steele are a force to be reckoned with. I laughed out loud at some of the terminology used, and I liked the dynamics of the club.

This is wild.
This is spicy.
This is full to the brim with non stop banter.

Make sure you’ve read Reaper Restrained first! Then buckle yourself up for the ride 🖤

I definitely missed the five boys in this one, I really love all of their personalities & how they blend so well. I still don’t like “pa” phrase but I love the dads.

Steel is 🥵🥵🥵.
Ray is a badass per usual.
This is one of the best written FMC I’ve ever seen. We love a take no shit Queen who gets underestimated.

The wedding made me tear up 🥲 it was so well written. I feel as though a some of this book was repetitive & I was waiting for the action but once the action hit… 10/10. If you liked the first book you’ll really enjoy getting to know these characters more in depth. I love a good series & I can’t wait for the rest of these books.

My personal wants: more of the OG 5 boys and more of Scar 🩷 I want to see that girlie turn into a confident ass bitch. AND DICE NEEDS A HEA PLEASE

I don’t enjoy cliffhangers but that’s just me being impatient. So if we pretend that didn’t happen.. IM SO GLAD RAY GOT HER HAPPY ENDING😭 ik it’s not the end but seeing her surrounded by so much love makes my heart happy.

I thoroughly enjoyed "Reaper Released." The story captivated my attention from the beginning and held me in its grip. The characters, brought the story to life. However, the number of characters did get a little confusing.

I really do appreciate the British touch in the writing style. The Britshness infused the story with a certain charm and sophistication, making it stand out from other stories in the same genre.

I found that the pace is lightning-fast. While this kept me on my toes and added to the excitement, there were instances where I longed for more detailed descriptions. Such descriptions would have aided in painting a clearer mental image of the settings and characters, allowing me to immerse myself even deeper into the story's world.

In conclusion, "Reaper Released" is undeniably a compelling read, though it demands readers to be prepared for a whirlwind journey through its intricate plot and multitude of characters. The unique British flair and the unrelenting pace make it an exhilarating adventure that's difficult to put down.

Before starting this books make sure you have read Reaper Restrained.

We kick off where we left off in book one, and boy is Ray a good actor. She is bada** on a whole other level.

This book introduces a new character who is hotter than hell. There is an undeniable connection between him and Ray, and it's amazing to see the transformation that they go through together. Ray flourishes in this book, and I love it.

There are so many twists and turns that you don't see coming, which keeps you on your toes throughout the whole book.

There were so many moments where I caught myself smiling, laughing, and getting emotional. There were also a few WTAF moments, too.

This book did not disappoint, and I can wait for book 3.

Seppy's 5 Star Review: 


This is the second book in this series. I just love Ray because she is amazing. She is a bad@ss B#tch that is a strong woman trying to find her place. I love when she puts any man in their place with ease. Don't count her down or our because she always has a trick or two up her sleeve.


Is the Reapers motorcycle club the place or is it time to move on? But before that can even be decided Ray is taken and they think it's Scar. What is going to happen next? 


This book is full of twists and turns that keep you hooked. I love a good dark and dirty romance full of action. I love the characters especially Ray. I really want them to find their home among the reapers. 


There are dark parts but there are so many laughable moments as well. I really enjoyed reading this one that I couldn't put it down. I can't wait to read what is next.

4/5🌶️

I couldn't put this book down. I absolutely love Ray she's a total bad@$s and will do anything for the people she loves. And steel? OMG he's literally perfect. They were absolutely made for each other. And that PLOT TWIST I never once saw that coming, I'm counting down the days until book 3. Even though I was off to a rough start with the beginning of book one I have to say I'm completely invested in this story and cannot wait to see how everything plays out.

Just when you thought you knew where it was going, you don't. I was immersed within this book even more than I was with Reaper Restrained. Ray and Steel are forever with me. I loved the banter between the MCs. The amount of respect and love they all have for one another during everything is outstanding. There was more spice this time around and it worked so well with the story!

I can't wait for Book 3!

Ray and Steel 🥰🥰

Holy Hades! If you fell in love with Ray and the guys of Reapers MC in the first book, prepare for a wild
ride in this unputdownable sequel.

Ray has finally found a place that allows her to let her inner Reaper shine. The action is nonstop, and the heat is set to sizzle throughout the entire book. The side characters are interesting and add to the overall camaraderie that propels this book to the next level. Everyone has something huge going on in their lives, but it doesn’t pull away from the main storyline. It all meshes well together.

There are a fair amount of TW, so check them before reading. Unaliving, extreme use of profanity, abduction, violence, drug use.

Reaper is my hero

She is so wild and calm all at once. Finally letting herself feel a connection other than her family and the men if the MC . Steel knows what he wants and who he wants but will she give in. There is so much going on in this story with new alliances and friends. And damn the ending .,,going to need the next one stat.

Reaper is awesome, and this book had her proving she's one tough woman, over and over.

There was quite a bit of character growth in this book (book two in the series) and we learnt more about Ray, her family, friends and Steel, too.

This book had me laughing and smiling at the banter, tearing up at the emotional parts and cheering Ray on when she was being her kick-butt self! It was a rollercoaster of a story, but I loved it.

The twist?! Amazing. But that ending? I need the next one, please! I need to see what happens.

Holy Crap! I thought book 1 was great and there was no way it would get better. But Harley is an amazing author and does a great job writing. Her attention to detail makes you feel like you are part of it. I feel like everyone in the MC is my family and all I have to do is call! And the spice in book 2 OH.. MY.. Goodness!! I can’t wait for book 3!!

What an awesome ride.
I loved the second installment of the Reapers story.
I laughed, yelled and swore during this book.
The spice level was sizzling and left me rather flushed. And I'm so excited to find out what's to come.
What a fantastic rollercoaster of a ride.
I want to be a part of their world. Bring on the next book.

AMAZING!!! The plot twist was twisting!!! I usually lean towards more smut based books but the plot in Reaper Restrained was good but kind of hard to focus (because I have ADHD😂) but the cliffhanger had me NEEDING more!!! So I got started on Reaper Released right away and I must say it delivered and more!!!

This was my first ARC and it didn’t disappoint.

I don’t want to give anything away but if you’re in the mood for a book where the FMC is not to be messed with, dark without being depressing, plenty of spice and of course our famous British banter then give this series a go!
I promise Ray and the gang will keep you entertained!

WOW another fantastic instalment with book 2, Reapers Release, its every bit as good as book 1, Reaper Restrained. I absolutely loved Ray and Steels story ❤️❤️❤️ Ray has to face kidnappers who of course, as usual underestimate her lol 😂 I love it when they underestimate her, she’s such a bad@$$. After gathering as much intel as she can, she escapes after annihilating them all. She finds the love of her life who accepts her for who she is. She becomes a member of the Reapers MC. Befriends the head of the Mafia. A great big mystery is finally solved after years of trying to track down a deceased brothers son, the Pa’s find him, big shock there 😳 This is an exceptional read, full of chaos and drama. What an ending, Harley Raige always leaves us salivating for more of Reaper. 100% recommend this book to everyone ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ you will not be disappointed 😎 cannot wait for book 3

Spice level: 🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️

Harley has outdone herself with the complex storyline throughout this series- astounding & truly unlike any other series I’ve read!!

This series is fantastic! There’s not a single dull moment in this book, you’ll come to realize where Ray is chaos will most likely follow- but have no worries the bad@$$ b!tch will handle it.
I can’t count the amount of time I literally laughed out loud while reading, these characters are hilarious especially Ray, the things that come out of her mouth..☠️🤣
The character growth of Ray in this book was almost shocking, she definitely met her soulmate- l’m so happy shes found peace with her true self & got her hea. Plus that heat between her & Steel, damnnnn.

I did miss all the pov of the F^cked Up Five but can’t wait for book 3 to see where this stories goes

Book two in the The Reapers MC, Ravenswood Ch. You have to read book one to get the story. Ray is in a League of her own. She loves her life on her own beat. When things get difficult she always fines a way. Steel comes back to the club. He finds the best thing that could happen to him. Their conation is epic. The end of the book will have you at the end of your seat. Can’t wait to see what happens next.

Book: Reaper's released : The Reaper's MC Ravenwood book 2
Author: Harley Raige

This book is also available on Kindle Unlimited

Reaper's MC Ravenwood is Harley's series debut.

After book 1 left me on a cliffhanger, I could not wait to get stuck in to what happened next and what was going to happen to Ray, Scar, and the rest of the gang.

There are so many different events that happen in this book that I think some of the scenes get skimmed over, while other not so relevant sections get repeated or hyper focused on. However, halfway through the book, Harley kicks it up a notch, and a storyline emerges where it gets interesting. However, it was a struggle to get to that point due to repeated scenes, and I didn't think I would finish the book.

Some of the characters weren't relatable, and relationships weren't so believable. I really am not a fan of the male lead 🫣 and find him quite whiny and 2 dimensional. (

I really love where Harley's mind is going, and she has some great ideas in terms of storyline and raunchy scenes, despite the plot being quite predictable. It was still fun when the outcome was revealed.

All in all, I'm sticking with this series. I've ended on another cliffhanger just as things got good.

I'd give the book itself 3/5 stars
And 4/5 steamy aubergines!
🍆🍆🍆🍆

Keep 'em coming, Harley 💦
