GOAT

by T.O. Smith

I’m a criminal, and she’s a cop. We just don’t mix.

Cameron

My brothers and I may clash heads, and sometimes, we might even throw fists. But there’s not much I won’t do to protect them.

Which is how I find myself in this little… game.

Abbie thinks she can take down my family one by one to help her climb the police ranks faster. But she’s an amateur, and her first mistake was allowing me to overhear her conversation.

I’m a master manipulator. I’ll make her fall for me, and then, I’ll tear her to pieces for coming after my family.

She may have started the game, but she’s merely a pawn.

I’m the true master, and she’s going to regret the day she ever met me.

~*~*~

Abbie

I came from nothing, but I’m determined to have everything, no matter who gets in my way.

Well, that’s my mindset until Cameron comes crashing into my life–coffee and donut in hand–and wears me down until I agree to date him.

He’s dodgy, doesn’t like to talk about himself, and is a master between the sheets. I originally started this with a plan–take him and his brothers down to climb the ranks and make something of myself.

I never anticipated falling in love with him.

Before I can come clean and tell him myself that I’d started this as a way to put him behind bars, I’m too late.

And when Cameron’s enemies target me, we’re already over. There’s no reason for him to come after me–to rescue me.

I’m on my own… and I don’t think I’m making it out of this alive.

**Please read the author’s note at the beginning of the book before deciding to read!

**This is book three of a six-book series with an overarching plot. While Cameron and Abbie get their happily-ever-after in this book, it is highly recommended to read Agony and Bender first before diving into this book so you’re not confused on previous events that are important to the plot of this book.

Keep An Eye On Your Enemies

When Cameron/GOAT overhears Abbie talking about taking his brothers down you wouldn’t think it possible but what if Abbie turns out to be a cop wanting to climb the ladder in the police force. Cameron believes in the old adage to keep your friends close but keep your enemies closer. What could be better than getting her to fall for you?

The problem for that idea is that maybe there isn’t as much pretending than you thought there would be. When Abbie is taken by the club’s enemies will Cameron save the cop lady?

This book was angst ridden with plenty of steam with plenty of action. I can’t wait to see what comes next from this author.

I absolutely love these characters: they’re real, they’ve suffered, and when they love it’s all in! Cameron has so much anger inside that he’s on level million in .2 seconds, but he loves and protects his family even faster. Abbie is a cop and generally cops and bad guys don’t mix, but Cameron starts out playing with her and their connection becomes so much more. I love their intensity, their energy, and their passion! The emotional aspect is dramatic and heart wrenching when he rescues her: his care, his love, and his protection heals her body and soul. T O brings the heat, the pain, and the retribution with every book! This series is one of my favorites because these men are more than their pasts, they let their hearts fill with love!.

Cameron/GOAT can be moody even with his brothers. He sees a beautiful woman that takes his breath away, she is a cop. He overhears her talking about taken his brothers down to get ahead. He plans to make her fall for him and keep an eye on her.

Abbie came from a single parent home and was orphaned at nineteen. She plans to get information from Cameron about the Ghost Born MC and take them down. She never planned on falling for her mark.

Someone is after the MC and they take Abbie to hurt them. Will they save her before the sell her off? Cameron will burn down the world to find her.

The overall story of the series maybe triggering to some as there are several victims of human trafficking and severe abuse.

Goat is book 3 in the Ghost Born MC series and Cameron and Abbie's (Little Devil) fast-paced, steamy journey. When I first read Goat I knew it was book 3 in this series but I was under the impression that Agony was book 2 and didn't realize that Bender by another author was in there as book 2. I went back and read Bender and it changed my whole review and answered my questions. Goat has great characters, an interesting storyline and completely consumes it's readers. I completely enjoyed the story and it's characters once I knew what was going on with them. I can't wait for the next book!

GOAT is the third book in the Ghost Born MC series. Ghost Born MC is an awesome MC series. The characters are very realistic. They have all had a very rough life, leaving them broken and some feeling damaged. However, they are anything but that as they come together as an MC family.

How Cameron and Abby come together makes for a very engaging, high-drama, suspenseful, and steamy storyline. I could not put this book down and can hardly wait for book four!

Note that you should read these books in order, or parts of the storyline will not make sense.

When Cameron aka Goat overhears Abbie talking about taking down the MC so she can move up in the police force he decides to play her game but unbeknownst to her he is the one really in charge. Abbie never expected the feelings to become intense between her and Goat and when he told her about her plans, he left but not before enemies took Abbie. Will Goat get to Abbie in time before she is harmed and will they rekindle their feelings. This story had me all caught up in it.

This book is fast paced and heed the trigger warnings as at times I found it hard to read because of the content and how well that subject was portrayed. Overall if you like mc books, I do suggest reading the prior books first as continuing where they left off. This book is Cameron/Goat’s and it was well done. He overhears Abby a cop talking smack about his family and decides to have a little fun. Only things may have gone a bit too far….

When Cameron overhears a conversation between two cops at the local coffee shop, in an effort to investigate he asks out the female cop. Abbie sees this as her in to finding out more about the MC and agrees. When the MC's enemies see her as Cameron's weak spot, they go after her. This is a quick, steamy, action packed romance but beware of the TW's!.

What a great MC story, there is plenty of action, danger, tension, violence, romance and lots of steam. I enjoyed that Cameron and Abbie join forces even though she is a cop and therefore also ends up on the list of another MC and needs to be protected. Highly recommended if you like MC stories and otherwise it is still worth reading.

This series follows each the members of the Ghost Born MC and how they find love. Each story progresses the overall series about an illegal human trafficking ring. This story was especially difficult due to the first-person narrative about human trafficking but it brings to the forefront strong emotions. The strength of Abbie and how she faces (and recovers) from her incident is inspirational. This series is definitely one that I would recommend to others!

[Michelle Roberts · Rating 5 out of 5]

Gotta love the way they meet and how they react to each other. He heard her talking and didn't like what he heard and came up with a plan. She wanted to move up in her career and thought his family was the key. Neither one wanted feelings to get involved but somethings you can't control. The things that these two go thru to get to a future. I would love to see what the future holds for this family.

A thrilling roller coaster of betrayal, romance, and survival. The chemistry between Cameron and Abbie is electric, and their journey from enemies to lovers, tainted by manipulation, makes for a gripping, heart-pounding read. Fans of dark romance and suspense will be captivated by the twists and turns of this emotionally charged story.

[Kurtins R · Rating 4 out of 5]

Goat is book 3 in the Ghost Born MC series and Cameron and Abbie's fast-paced, steamy story. Goat hates the cops and Abbie is one both trying to use each other when real feelings start to develop on both sides.
Great addition to the series.
