Thunder is older and more seasoned than the rest of the Pride men, but even he is thrown for a loop when the girl he hasn’t been able to get out of his mind shows up in his town. Thunder dated Rose’s sister until things went south and when he cut his losses, he left Rose and her family behind. Rose wants to live a quiet life in her quaint flower shop, but it seems that the ugliness of her dead sister’s past has caught up with her. Even though Rose has always distanced herself from her drug addicted sister, it seems that her enemies want their pound in flesh. Thunder will do what needs to be done but can they resolve this issue without bloodshed?

Thunder and Rose

Thunder is a member of the Satan’s Pride MC and his past has just come back full force. Rose was the younger sister of a woman who Thunder was seeing a few years back who done him wrong. Now that Rose is grown that crush, she has always had Thunder has a chance to become what she always wanted.

Not only has the man she is now ready for but her dead sister’s past has come knocking. Thunder wants to do nothing more than to love Rose and protect from the people who threatening her life.

This was a book that I couldn’t put down. I loved the connection between Thunder and Rose and the family feeling of the brotherhood. I can’t wait to read more from this series.

Opening a new flower shop was Roses dream. But running into her sister's ex Thunder. What was that? When things from the past come back to haunt her can Thunder keep her safe?

I really enjoyed this one. MC's are my all time favorites so they get judged s lot harder than other books. I have high expectations. Rose and Thunder were such a cute couple and wonderful characters. I loved that they found each other again. The plot was great and I loved how we get to see other characters from different stories. It was around 1.5/5 on the spice level. I definitely would pick up the rest of this series.

I love all the characters of Satan's Pride, and while Rose and Thunders story was good, I didn't feel the same emotional attachment I usually do. I know authors repeat some of the same previous information to get new readers somewhat caught up, but I personally think it cuts in to the current story to much. With this being book 12, that's a whole lot of characters to back pedal through. The plotline was somewhat different, and the writing style remains the same so you breeze right through it in a couple of hours.

Book #12 is an awesome addition to the Satan’s Pride MC series. I enjoyed Thunder’s and Rose’s story. She is the younger sister of an ex of his from his past. She had a crush on him, back then, and when they connect again, they really “connect”! Their attraction is undeniable. This is a very entertaining read. (this was a complimentary copy and this is my honest review)

MMC/FMC- Thunder and Rose

POV- 1st person dual

Genre- MC Romance

Heat level - 🌋🌋🌋 They do the thing and name the parts.

Series? Y

Safety: Y. No S. Violence or cheating.

Triggers- menacing, violence, explicit erotic content, language, discussion of addiction, threatened trafficking, potential allergens from floral arrangements.

Tropes- Mob Debt, She’s All Grown Up, Ex’s Sister/Sister’s Ex, Secret Crush, Do-Si-Do With The Mafioso, Almost Instalove, Found Family.

What I liked- The way that they pretty much knew they were for each other from the moment they saw each other again. The MC’s sense of loyalty and family. The fact that they are not 1% ers but still manage to protect what’s theirs. The pacing of the plot. The blend of action and romance, with some good zexytime. What I didn’t- there were a couple of continuity errors. First, the numbering of the book didn’t match on the cover and the title page. Second, his past is a little murky- it said he left home at 14 when his grandmother died, and later it said he left home at 18 and made no mention of the grandmother.

Special note- the author bio says that she was born in Italy. If English is her second language, I’m amazed; you’d never be able to tell. Her English is far better than my Italian would ever be (I know like four Italian words and three of them are swear words).

I was fortunate enough to receive an advance review copy of this book for free and I am voluntarily leaving this honest review.

Rose wants to live a quiet life, but Thunder inflames her crush to full-blown love. When her dead sister's past comes calling, can Thunder protect her, or will she wind up like her sister? A.G. Kirkham brings such emotion to this dark romance, I couldn't put it down. With characters that'll tear your heart out, emotional narration, and second chance romance, Thunder makes for an unforgettable dark MC romance.

It all starts and ends with emotional narration. The narration is layered with emotion and the reader has no choice but experience the heartache. A.G. Kirkham uses emotion to connect her characters to the reader and the result is an unputdownable romance.

The characters drive the plot in this story. I connected with both Thunder and Rose right away. Thunder is a later-in-life hero I adored. He thought he’d never see Rose again. Is this a sign for a second chance at love? Rose’s sorrow is heartbreaking and I totally cried. These characters are written with so much emotion, they became a part of me.

The writing is poignant, instinctual, and bleak at times. This author is a one-click for me. She writes authentic characters and storylines. A truly remarkable book and one I strongly recommend.

My Rating: 5+ stars

Rosie and Thunder were the sweetest couple! Having known Rosie since he dated her older sister for a bit, he never thought he would see her again. Her sister burned him and he cut ties with the whole family. Years later he comes into a florist to pick up wedding flowers for a brother and finds the sweet woman he never forgot. Rose had a crush on Thunder from the beginning. After the last time she saw him, she never expected he would walk into her flower shop. There is danger lurking in the shadows, ready to swallow her up and destroy everything. Thunder is determined to protect her at all costs and the Pride is ready to assist. Coming back to visit with the Pride, while getting to know Rose and Thunder, I loved every minute! Cannot recommend this series enough!

This installment of the Satan's Pride shows us that family isn't always about blood. Thunder has sworn off of long-term relationships after falling for the wrong woman many years ago. But then he has a chance meeting with the sister of the woman who soured him. Rose knew as a child that she loved Thunder. Thunder was, well, thunder struck when he sees Rose after several years apart. Rose has loving parents, but Thunder has no relationship with his family. Thunder's chosen family takes Rose in too in her time of need. The Satan's Pride doesn't disappoint, and they protect their own!

Thunder is a member of Satan’s Pride MC. His last serious relationship ended badly and he took his frustration out on her family and younger sister overheard. Rose lived in the shadow of her older sister and people saw her as a wallflower.
Thunder hasn’t forgotten about Rosie all this time and when he first lays eyes on her after all these years and knew he was a goner. This book shows you that family doesn’t always share blood but they have your back through everything. I love this series and was pleasantly surprised about characters from her other series showing up!!!

Received as an ARC and leaving my honest review voluntarily. Note that the story mentions drug abuse, prostitution and murder, nothing overly descriptive but sensitive readers proceed with caution. As always I was pulled into the story and I loved how easy the feelings were for Thunder and Rose, seeing as they shared a past. The story and emotions just flowed so well, with some danger and suspense but compared to the earlier books, I found it be less intense but no way less engaging and intriguing. Loved the book and the spillover from the other mafia series (with Dante and Sebastian, and Reno). Can't wait to read the next book which I'm guessing should be Hammer's.

When Rosie was younger, she was the forgotten sister as Thunder and her parents did everything they could to help her self-destructive sister, Clarissa. Years later, Clarissa is dead and Thunder meets up with Rosie again, finally seeing her worth and what he lost. As their relationship grows, the past comes full circle when the people Clarissa was involved with start looking at Rose. The Satan's Pride are there to help solve the puzzle and give their full support in protecting Thunder's woman. Like many Kirkham books, this is a wonderful story showing family doesn't necessarily mean blood relation.

Satan's Pride is back with Thunder in this great age gap story. Thunder's thrown for a loop when he comes up on Rose, his exes younger sister. The ex didn't leave good memories with Thunder but Rose, she may just be what he's been waiting for all along. Rose has always known she loves Thunder and now is her chance. They both feel the connection and it kind of solidifies it when the Pride steps in when she needs help. As with all of the previous books in this series Thunder is all about the Brotherhood, family and relationships within this club. Another great read!

I have always loved the Satan's Pride MC and this is a fantastic addition to the series. Thunder knew Rose from when he was with her sister, that relationship ended and he lost touch. Rose seeing Thunder again brought back feelings she had for him when she was younger, he was her crush and now she needs help and in Pride fashion him and the club are there for her.

Another perfect book in the series. I adore this couple. I was on pins and needles worrying that they wouldn’t find their happily ever after. This author never misses.
