I've always been a man of pleasure, never one for commitment.
Friends with benefits is what I’m after. And I’ve had a lot of... ahem... friends.
But Willow is different. She's fiery, sassy, and takes no prisoners. I thought a fling during lockdown would be fun, but I never expected to see beyond her tough exterior to the real woman inside.
When she gets shot and the cartel comes after us, I realize I can't live without her.
I'll do whatever it takes to protect her, even if it means burning this place to the ground.
If she lives through this, I'll make her mine forever.
Can this reformed gang banger win the heart of the one woman he can't live without?

Craving a gritty, action-packed friends-to-lovers romance with bikers so hot they'll melt your Kindle?

Joaquin and Willow

This is another great addition to the Reckless Souls MC series and the club still has the Iron Kings MC coming at them.

With this book comes Joaquin and with his no attachments attitude things take a big change for the time being with a feisty woman who works at one of the club’s businesses. Willow is all about having fun and partying and has her eyes set on the gorgeous biker who is all about fun times. I loved the connection between Joaquin and Willow and their budding romance. Their scences were definitely hot and it got even better when feelings were thrown into the mix.

There so much club drama with other clubs and now the cartel thrown in that I couldn’t put this book down. The twists and turns in the storyline was fantastic which made this such a good mix with the Reckless Souls men and the women they loved.

Joaquin and Willow😍

Joaquin is the next book in the Reckless Souls MC and focuses on Joaquin and Willow❣️Willow we meet in the previous book, she helps Maven with her bakery and she is entertaining and funny as all hell😂 Joaquin on the other hand is newly patched to the MC, but know a with all the flirting him and Willow have been engaging in, is soon going to explode from all the sexual teasing😉

Loved this couple and their chemistry. This was another action packed suspenseful story, both sad and haunting. I’m excited to read Dix’s book and find out what happens next🤩 I received an advanced copy via Booksprout and voluntarily leave my honest review❤️

I voluntarily reviewed a copy of "JOAQUIN" OMG!!! Buckle up for one crazy wild intense rollercoaster ride full of none stop action, danger, violence, angst
steam, emotional turmoil, Rival MC, Cartel, twists that keep you on the edge of your seat.
Willow Martinez works at For Goodness Cakes with owner Maven & Letty both women from Satan Sinner's MC, she is attracted to Joaquin & wants to become his O'l Lady someday, the club is on lockdown due to a war with Iron King's MC.
Joaquin & Willow take you on quite the journey she all about having fun, she's feisty, loves to party, loves bikers, the connection between these two is off the charts scorching hot.
I definitely recommend to get this amazing page turner you can't put down so much is happening with the Club, I couldn't get enough of Joaquin & Willow the danger that follows them, will they survive the new Cartel threat along with Iron Kings MC, the twists & intense drama makes you love these guys & how they protect their women at all costs.
I'm so looking forward to "DIX'S" story next after that shocking cliffhanger it can't come soon enough.
PHENOMINAL MINDBLOWING MC ROMANCE 🖤 🖤

JOAQUIN starts out strong and carries you through with an intense and well-developed storyline. Joaquin and Willow have been dancing around each other until they finally decide to take it a step further with a friends-with-benefits type relationship. But it doesn’t take long for them to move past the “friends only” part. Theirs is a strong passionate relationship that is tested by outside forces which might prove too dangerous to ignore. If you’ve been reading these stories, you will not be surprised by the deadly violence considering the whole rival MC backstory. But this is not a story or series for the faint of heart. It is for those who enjoy a good MC romance, who are sure to enjoy this compelling tale with its well-drawn characters and extremely engaging storyline. There’s a new conflict introduced that is going to be the next challenge for this MC to face, which will leave you anxious to read what’s coming next for the Reckless Souls.

The Reckless Souls MC California chapter has so much going on, and absolutely no one is safe!

This chapter is really addictive. It absolutely should be read in the correct order to avoid confusion in the storyline, and to have the best experience. Reader beware: This read is intense!

Joaquin and Willow are great together and have steamy chemistry! They have their own challenges to face before securing their HEA, but they are good together.

I cannot believe the level of danger this club is facing, and the violence it takes to protect everyone. The story's intensity hits fast and hard, and was challenging to put down. My nerves are fried! It was so good!

While Joaquin and Willow's storyline may be settled, the MC's is anything but! I have more questions than answers! (But that just gets me excited for the next book in this series.)

I was fortunate to receive my free ARC from Booksprout and I voluntarily leave my review.

i have been with this author for many years and her books just get better and better. I loved this series. This is the sixth book in the Reckless Souls MC series. I love the action, and the fast-pace. This story follows Willow and Joaquin. He is t relationship material - love and leave ‘em or friend’s with benefits is as much of a commitment as you are likely to get for this guy. On the other hand, Willow is a shoot from the hip girl, honesty in your face if necessary and not what he’s used to. They are in lock down She's fiery, sassy, and takes no prisoners. I thought a and he thought this would be great, for him but when Willow is shot he realizes she’s his other half.

Joaquin and Willow. He is attracted to her, but unsure about commitment as a couple. She wants the man and being a couple.
The opening chapters are about their relationship with each other, sex and being more serious together. It then rushes into danger and drama as the MC and Willow are under threat.
Mixed feelings about this story as it seems to be two components of their relationship and threats to the MC. I was distracted at times and my interest waned Liked it but felt something missing and not sure what exactly. .

Willow is the one you want on your side. Doesn't take anything from anybody, says what's on her mind and is loyal to a fault.
Joaquin is your typical bad boy. Handsome, no strings, former gang banger and loyal to a fault. Putting him and Willow together is like fireworks on the 4th of July. Their story is full of loss, of course trouble with the Iron Kings brings lots of action and finally the Reckless Souls start the healing from all of the loss. Of course that won't last long. The Reckless Souls always have something they have to sort out.

Wow! This was a awesome book. I had a really hard time putting this book down. Joaquin and Willow were awesome together with their intense connection and chemistry. These two were only meant to be FWB but that quickly changed. Now, Joaquin and Willow have to deal with not only their growing attraction and feelings, but also danger and outside forces that are trying to get in the way. I would highly recommend this book, this series and KB Winders as an awesome author.

Dream come true

Willow wants a biker for keeps and with her bestie dating one she has chance to make the dream come true. While Joaquin and his mc fight and try to clean up the town, Joaquin meets his match. I loved the way they navigate their relationship with threats that surround them. The club and the devotion is true in each story. Well written and thought out plot and I don't want to give anything away. I can't wait for the next book to see how the fight continues and who else will fall in love.

Fast Paced, Action Packed, Steamy MC Read!!!!

Joaquin is one of the more newly patched members and a playboy just looking for his next good time. Willow is friends with a number of the ladies in the club who works for Maven. The two start really eyeing one another while the club is on lockdown and when they do get together, the sparks fly and they fly hot!!!

I love this MC Series and seeing all the guys throughout each book. The story of this MC is enthralling, fast paced and full of action! I can’t wait to read Dix’ book and can’t believe how this book left off!!!

Another intriguing story in the life of the Reckless Souls. We see thier tough harsh sides as well as the softness to their women.
Danger is all around them, Willow could be dying in hospital. Other people in their lives are kidnapped and possibly dead. There is way more than an enemy MC, it seems like the Cartel is involved. Things are likely to be worse before they get better.
Joaquin and Willow made a great couple, flirting around each other until the chemistry caught flame.
This was one emotional ride and I can't wait for the next one.

Joaquin finds what he was never looking for and Willow finds exactly what she was looking for. Steadily paced story. Overlaps the previous book. Zero relationship drama. Huge MC drama. They sadly lose some people along the way bringing a lot of sadness to some of them. Some very funny moments. Willow and Joaquin are really good together. So much hotness.

Joaquin & Williow are a fun character to know & root for. Love how they want more yet take it as it comes till it doesnt become a want but need. The danger & choas doesn't break the brotherhood but make them stronger. The suspense & danger still continues.

This action-packed story is filled with drama that had my heart racing and my emotions all over the place. Joaquin and Willow are a matched couple that I connected with and found myself cheering for. Once again Ms. Winters has woven a story that touches the heart and soul of its reader.

Joaquin is the 6th book in the Reckless Souls MC series and it’s full of drama and excitement. Joaquin is a very likable character, as is Willow. I loved his protectiveness to her and I loved her feisty personality. They are perfect together. Another awesome addition to the MC series. *this was a complimentary copy and this is my honest review*

I love reading about the MC & what goes on with them, how they get together with the their Women. Joaquin & Willow are so right for each other. With everything that's going on with the club & the war with the Iron Kings, they still managed to have a very hot & exciting relationship!

Awesome!

I really enjoyed this book because it's one of the first ones where the girl, Willow, was actually looking for a biker instead of the rich girls or "good girls" who happen to get involved with an MC guy because of the circumstances. Naturally their chemistry is off the charts!

Joaquin & Willow

Who knew that a gang banger biker could be so sweet too. Joaquin and Willow really evolved into an amazing couple. Joaquin hasn’t been with the club nearly as long as the rest of the men, but he is just as loyal and hardworking as any of them. Loved this story! Anxious to start the next one!

EXCELLENT!! I really got into this book. Joaquin and Willow is such an amazing couple. There is so much going on in this book that you won't want to put it down. There is action, threats, friends with benefits connection, steamy scenes, strong willed characters, there are also a lot of twists and turns. I fully recommend this book but you need to read it in the series order.
