Wall Street Journal and USA Today bestselling author Winter Travers is a devoted wife, mother, and aunt turned author who was born and raised in Wisconsin. After a brief stint in South Carolina following her heart to chase the man who is now her hubby, they retreated back up North to the changing seasons, and to the place they now call home. Winter spends her days writing happily ever afters, and her nights being a karate mom hauling her son to practices and tournaments. She also has an addiction to anything MC related, puppies, and baking.
I was fortunate enough to be able to read and review two of the stories in this book and they were amazing. With all the other authors in here I know this is an extraordinary telling of many MC stories.
My Forever Kind of Love by Ke Osborn
The NOLA Defiance MC is an awesome series to follow and with this book we get a look at Hurricane and Kaia on vacation as only the President and his Old Lady can do. So much happens on their delayed honeymoon to Hawaii with trying to help the island’s Defiance club and with finding out some important news to them as well. It was action packed with plenty of steam and made me fall in love with this couple even more. I can never get enough of this author’s books.
Riding Into Love by Kathleen Kelly
This was a sweet romance about a man on a bike who saves the lonely barkeep from not only some troublesome men in her bar but also from herself. I was so happy that Tex stuck with it and helped Jane and they were able to get their HEA.
Wow, each story was absolutely fantastic! I couldn’t put it down. I absolutely loved Avelyn’s. I loved how protective he was of Charlotte from the beginning. The surprises in this story was fabulous and left me shocked. I can’t wait for the conclusion of this story!
On a whole this is an enjoyable literary ride with stories full of steam, suspense, and gut wrenching emotions. The stories aren't black and white, they're full of grays, courtesy of bikers who've not always been good with their choices. But when it comes to the women in their lives, they're oh so good in sizzling encounters and sweet and sentimental interludes.
The stories in this collection, which CAN be read on their own, are continuations of the author's series and will provide a richer experience if read along with the other books in the series. As part of the Grimm Wolves/Devil’s Handmaidens MC, I was particularly drawn to Last Chance at Love by D.M. Earl and its tale of redemption and forgiveness, forgiveness from others and from yourself. This novella reintroduces readers to Cletus aka Slick, a former white supremacist who's done a lot of bad things in the past as was seen in the book, Taz. He hurt a lot of people, put MCs in danger, and destroyed the woman he loved. He's starting over though, given a chance to find his own HEA, but it's a rocky journey to redemption as the truths he's telling are going to put a bullseye on his back. Lucy's a worthy heroine though, likable with a kind heart, but once all the truths are revealed will she still stand by Slick's side?
This is an emotionally heavy story as it deals with hard truths and bad choices. I didn't think I'd ever feel sympathy for Slick, but Earl managed to make him someone worthy of forgiveness. He truly wanted to be a better man and I bought into it completely, while rooting for Lucy to see the good man behind the bruised facade. There's a large cast of secondary characters, members of the MCs, that provide a feeling of family and support that Slick will need as he tries to right all the wrongs from his past life. From start to finish this is a quick read, an unforgettable one as well, that has a man putting himself out there for judgment in a journey that will be a gut punch!
Tex and Jane’s story was a very sweet love story, tex is a biker and Jane owns and works in a bar, Jane has some problems with some people and Tex steps in to help, sparks fly and a romance begins and they get their happily ever after ❤️🖤
OMG! Anthologies are usually a tease for me, but thank god all of these authors are so talented and I know I'll be reading more of these characters in their main works😍
So glad I got to read this wonderful anthology with great stories from wonderful authors. I can honestly say, hand on heart , that this has been the best one yet. Biker stories always tick my boxes. So when I saw an author i liked promoting it i jumped on it, i so hope more like this are coming in the future.
I read all of these authors' works, so an anthology of short stories was a no-brainer. It took me a while to finish because I dipped in and out. I would read a short story to clear my brain before/after reading a long, involved story. Some of these stories left me feeling fulfilled. The last one by Kathleen Kelly left me feeling like I was missing something. A very heavy feeling story. Feel free to reach out to me if you figure it out.
All of the authors who have contributed to this analogy did an amazing job. The romance of each story swept me away. Plenty of steam, some angst but not a lot. I discovered a couple of new authors that I want to check out. If you like bikers you will love this book.
LAST CHANCE AT LOVE by DM Earl is a novella set in the author’s GRIMM WOLVES MC series, and a part of the multi-authored anthology BIKER IN MY BED. This is Slick aka Cletus Jennings, and stripper/housecleaner / single mother Lucy’s aka Cashmere story line. Cletus Jennings first appeared in TAZ, book three of the DEVIL’S HANDMAIDENS MC series.
NOTE: If you have not read TAZ, there may be spoilers in my review.
Told from dual first person perspectives (Cletus and Lucy) LAST CHANCE AT LOVE focuses on Cletus aka Slick’s need to apologize for sins of the past involving his ex Raquel ‘Taz’ Smith and the Devil’s Handmaidens MC. As a former member of a white-supremacist group Cletus Jennings destroyed many lives including the life of the woman he once loved but in an effort to prove he is a changed man, and worthy of Lucy’s love, Cletus offers up some information, that will likely put a target on his back. Apologies for the damaged he caused threatens to break his tenuous hold on the who holds his heart.
The world building reveals a little bit about the past including some of the events that would set Cletus towards a different path. For a better understanding, I recommend reading TAZ (Devil’s Handmaidens MC) as the premise of LAST CHANCE AT LOVE are predicated upon the events of TAZ.
There is a large ensemble cast of secondary and supporting characters including several members of the Grimm Wolves MC, and cameos from Enforcer and Taz.
LAST CHANCE AT LOVE is a story of betrayal and vengeance, acceptance and forgiveness, understanding and love. The fast paced premise is heart breaking and emotional; the romance struggles in the face of reality and the truth; the characters are broken but struggling to heal.
•••••••••••••••
FOREVER KIND OF LOVE by KE Osborn is a novella set in the author’s NOLA DEFIANCE MC series, and a part of the multi-authored BIKER IN MY BED anthology. This is Hurricane and Kaia’s continuing story. Hurricane and Kaia’s introduction can be found in GRAVITATE book one of the NOLA Defiance MC.
Told from dual first person perspectives (Hurricane & Kaia) FOREVER KIND OF LOVE follows NOLA Defiance MC president Hurricane and his wife /old lady Kaia on their long-awaited honeymoon in Hawaii. A visit to the local chapter of Defiance MC on the island finds Hurricane on assignment to rescue the daughter of the Oahu MC but when he fails, Kaia takes it upon herself to save a woman who doesn’t want to be saved.
We are introduced to several members of the Oahu Defiance MC, as well as their president’s daughter Nalani who found herself involved with a Chinese gang known as The Ministry.
FOREVER KIND OF LOVE is a story of family and friendships, betrayal and power, forgiveness and love. The fast paced premise is intriguing and entertaining; the ongoing romance is seductive and provocative; the characters are familiar and determined.
•••••••••
LOVE BITES by Kristine Allen is a novella found in the author’s DEMENTED SONS MC: TEXAS, and a part of the multi-authored BIKER IN MY BED anthology. This is twenty-nine year old former US solider/ mechanic Max ‘Royal ‘ Windsor, and Luna Levine’s story line.
Told from dual first person perspectives (Royal and Luna) LOVE BITES follows in the wake of Royal moving back home to Texas in the wake of catching his ex-girlfriend cheating with the neighbor. As the newest member of the Demented Sons MC Texas, Royal needed a place to live, and staying with his sister was about to get a whole lot of interesting when she signed him up on a dating app, and the messages started to come through. One night with Luna was all it took but a Thanksgiving dinner with the club would reveal a few secrets that were never supposed to be exposed.
The relationship between Luna and Royal begins as a matchup that will quickly turn into something more but Luna is good at keeping secrets, and her biggest secret may threaten the people she loves. The $ex scenes are intimate and passionate.
We are reintroduced to several member of the DEMENTED SONS MC: TEXAS as well as Royal’s sister Lacie, and Luna’s father.
LOVE BITES is a story of secrets and lies, obsession and want, family and friendships. The fast paced premise is captivating and engaging reading like the prequel to Luna and Royal’s story; the romance is limited; the characters are desperate and determined. LOVE BITES ends on a cliff hanger-you have been warned.
We have to say we enjoy this collection of short stories. Normally I am not a big fan of anthologies but, we couldn't pass this one up as it had some of our favorite authors in this current tale, and didn't want to miss out not only that we have wanted to try some of these other authors we just haven't had the chance to so we are glad we got to experience to explore new authors.
We have to say that we loved some stories more than others but, for the most part, we enjoyed the characters in every story. We just didn't like the fact some of the stories ended without wrapping things up and we hate when that happens as we love epiloguoes but, we loved the characters in every story.
Since Winter, KE, and DM are some of our all-time favorite MC Romance authors we always love getting our hands on everything they write, and as always they never let us down. Winter's story we fell in love with her characters Red and Tara from the moment we started turning the pages. They made such a cute couple. KE's story was great it was heartfelt and emotional and it sure had a shocker of an ending that floored us Charolett and Thor had some beautiful chemistry and we loved that she started living again and was enjoying life once again. This one had an exciting twist.
DM's story took us on another roller coaster ride that always tugs on one's heartstrings. Slicks and Lucy's story was an emotional one. We loved that the man was owning up to his past not making excuses for mess-ups but, he was trying to right some wrongs and and tried to be a better man going forward. Loved how we saw growth in this man and the man he was becoming. Loved that Lucy listened was patient kind and loving and wasn't giving up on the man but, had to do what was right for her and her son, and she had the support of the club's old ladies in whatever she chose to do going forward. The mention of Taz Enforcer and Teddy they were a big part of the story and we loved that as they were some of our favorite characters. A lot of unexpected events going on in this story we love all the little surprises that pop up all over the place. Loved Kaia and Hurricane's story leave it to them to have a honeymoon neither one will forget. Kaia is one bad*** for sure.
This collection of stories was filled with tons of hot alpha men who we love. Love their possessiveness of their woman and how they love them crazy. Super hot sexy times throughout these stories. We loved that some of these characters got a second chance to get it right. What these stories did do however is want to make us seek out other stories and series of authors new to us and get lost in their characters as well.
This is so full of amazing characters, and great stories! I love the mix of tropes, the way each story was able to pull me in, some shorter, and some longer. It's definitely a collection to escape into, meeting new characters, new to you authors, and an overall great read.
Biker In Love by Winter Travers
I loved Red and Tara! She's fun and quirky, full of fire, and he's that alpha, I want her type. I loved their immediate chemistry and the sparks really flew!
Love Bites by Kristine Allen
Oh my goodness!! I was hooked on Royal and Luna, the hook ups, and how that is connecting them more and more. There's great spice mixed with some nail biting, and it all comes together so well. I need more of these two!!
Forever Kind of Love by K E Osborn
Holy smokes! Hurricane and Kaia definitely get into things that kept the heart pounding and the pages turning! I really liked these two characters, the heart they have, and how they care about those around them as well. I was hooked!
Love In Lightning by Addison Jane
OMG Jaxon and Stella are great! They are young, he's newly patched in the MC, she's just ready to graduate high school and start college. They are connected, they are still figuring out what they want and I need more of them!
Sidetracked Love by MariaLisa deMora
Absolutely loved this story! These two have deep feelings and a history that had my heart loving every second. Mya and Kade are great characters and I didn't want to let them go!
Bad Luck, Hard Love by Avelyn Paige This is a great read and I was hooked from the start! I'm rooting for Charlotte, getting away from her ex and pulling herself up to make that happen. Thor is this protector, a someone that is going to make things happen. They have a fantastic chemistry! I love the bits of suspense and I need more from them!
Love Hurts by Hilary Storm
This is a great best friend's brother read! Hadlee and Slade are intense and the story has some great nail biting suspense as well. I enjoyed the characters and interested in their world.
I received a copy of this book and am voluntarily leaving an honest review.
I only read 3 of the books in this anthology. I may go back and read more of them but I am not sure.
The first book I read was Kathleen Kelly's book. It is the last book in the anthology. Jane owns and operates a bar she got from her father. She feels tons of responsibility to it. There are also two patrons that harass her every night and want more from her than she is willing to give. Then there is Tex who comes through town regularly. Could she have something with him or does he want the same as the others? Could she give her heart to Tex and not get it broken? Wonderful read.
Next i read Winter Travers' book. Kind of a meet cute type book. Tara gets locked out of her house while trying to set up to sunbath topless in her back yard. Red her hottie next door neighbor helps her out. They find that they have a lot of chemistry. This story moves fast but it a great read. I love Tara and Red.
Finally I read D.M. Earl's book. This book is about Slick and I am hoping there will be a longer one will more about him. Slick has found a woman who he wants to have a future with but in order to do that he knows he must make amends with things that happened in his past. He needs to tell this woman all the things he has done and explain what led him to do those things. Then wait and see if she still wants anything to do with him. I will be honest and took me a minute to remember who Slick was, what he had done, and how he fit into the story line. I am still on the fence about him but the story was great. I can't wait to read more about the characters.
This is a great anthology I hope to get back to it and read the rest of the books. Fantastic job everyone.
Tara and Red become involved in a fast-paced, insta love/lust in this short read. They soon connect and find their HEA.
LOVE BITES KRISTINE ALLEN
This is a best friend's brother romance trope. Royal and Luna's heat burns up the sheets.
WRONG LOVE SAPPHIRE KNIGHT
Allison and Zeus get a chance with a steamy start.
FOREVER KIND OF LOVE KE OSBORN
Hurricane and Kaia, the President and his First Lady's tale will take readers through a ride full of excitement and drama.
LOVE IN LIGHTNING ADDISON JANE
Jaxon and Stella story is heartbreaking! I see more of their story coming.
SIDETRACKED LOVE MARIALISA DEMORA
Mya and Kade finally get their chance with this hot, quick story, which puts them right where they need to be.
BAD LUCK, HARD LOVE AVELYN PAIGE
Thor's the right one to show Charlotte what it means to live again. He has a job to do, one that is a lot closer to Charlotte than he foresaw.
LAST CHANCE AT LOVE DM EARL
This entry focused on redemption. Cletus/Slick, is given the opportunity to carry a do-over. Lucy and Atlas become his second chance at love and a new life.
LOVE HURTS HILARY STORM
Hadlee's best friend has a scrumptious brother, Slade. They end up together in the most wickedly hot way. These two take embark on a rollercoaster of a ride that grabs the reader.
RIDING INTO LOVE KATHLEEN KELLY
Jane and Tex both have had intense life journeys. Jane is a tough one as she runs a dive bar. She knows has to be this way, but Tex steps in with the intention of softening that exterior shell of hers and showing her how to live again.
These anthologies are a great way to try an new to you author and get a sneek peek at their writing style. I sometimes struggle myself though because I like a longer book and these short stories are never enough to satisfy my inner reader. I can't wait to get through all the stories.
Last Chance by DM Earl 4 Stars
Like most members of an MC club they find themselves as part of the brothers because they are looking for acceptance, maybe a new place to call home, a family they never had. This is all true for Slick. In fact he is certain he is only lucky enough to be part of the Grimm Wolves is because of an agreement between two clubs but he is determined to right his wrongs to the best of his ability. He has found more than a family of brothers and wants to move forward with Lucy and her son, form a family of his own. But first he needs to tell her everything and let her make the choice. He is also determined to right is wrong with Taz and help rid the world of that horrible brotherhood that is causing all the problems in Montana.
Tensions are high and emotions even higher as Slick opens up to Lucy in hopes for more.
I will update as I read more.
*** Advanced copy provided in exchange for an honest review. ***
What an entertaining and enjoyable anthology! I have selected three of the stories to write about. All very different and all terrific.
Forever Kind of Love by K.E. Osborn Hurricane and Kaia are finally taking their honeymoon—only three years after their wedding. 🤣 What an adventure it turns out to be for them both, too. I really enjoyed this snippet of time in Hurricane and Kaia’s life. Great action, drama and excitement with a good dollop of sexiness as well.
Love in Lightning by Addison Jane Jaxon, a member of the Brother’s by Blood MC, is a wonderful support for Stella. These two are great together, and I like both characters enormously. Though Stella, having just finished high school, has a huge decision to make about her future and whether Jaxon will star in it. I hope this is a prequel to Jason and Stella’s main book because I am sure it will be epic.
Riding Into Love by Kathleen Kelly This story is about Jane, the owner of a dive bar in a small town, who is closed off to most people to protect herself, and Tex, a biker who rides into town every so often. Tex’s stay this time is much more focused on Jane, and he’s determined to break down some of her walls and open her up to the possibility of truly living. Yep, I like Tex a lot and Jane’s character is great, too.
Last Chance at Love by D M Earl- I enjoy anything by this author, and this novella was no different. It was all about second chances and forgiving yourself for things you can't change, as well as many other little pearls of wisdom. I hope it gets expanded in the future as I am dying to know how his project goes.
Riding into Love by Kathleen Kelly- This one conflicted me. Normally I love anything by this author, and I did enjoy getting to know the characters, but I struggled with the plot side of things. There seemed to be stuff going on but no context or even a resolution was given. Could just be headspace I'm in, but even putting the novella aside and trying again a week later had me feeling the same way.
Lots of amazing reads in this anthology. I enjoyed each story in this. One of my favorites was Biker in Love by Winter Travers. This is Tara and Red's tale which I just loved these two, how they were able to connect like they did. Another favorite in this was Love Bites by Kristine Allen. I was excited to see that this was a Demented Sons MC character, Royal. I can't wait to see what the future holds for him and Luna. Aside from these two, the other stories in here were just as good. In fact I felt that all of these authors in this anthology did an exceptional contribution to each piece written in this. I couldn't get enough and each story kept my interest. I recommended reading this.
Omg, this anthology is jam packed with fabulous authors bringing the most fantastic stories to our eyes, everyone is interesting, entertaining and have fabulous drool worthy characters.
Take Winter Travers and her Red or KE Osborn and of course Hurricane, then we have Kristine Allen and Royal, DM Earl and Slick and then the lovely ladies, Tara, Luna, Kaia and Cashmere but that’s not all there are more guys and ladies that you’re going to just love and plenty of stories to keep you turning the page.
Excellent anthology. It’s jam packed with 10 MC romance reads that will have you reading fast and swooning throughout. 10 great authors have joined forces to give you bikers from every angle. Alpha bikers who find their perfect ole ladies. We have the older “Daddy” types, the hunk next door, to the one who saves the day and so much more. You can’t go wrong with any of these stories. I highly recommend grabbing up Biker in my Bed and giving yourself the perfect late night gift from these outstanding authors.
This anthology was soo good! Cute, Sassy and Sext short stories from some amazing authors. Absolutely loved all the stories in here from all authors well worth the read!
Winter Travers book Biker in Love is just great! Hilarious meeting between Red and Tara starts us off and I could not put it down! After the meeting, then a thank you and that just hits it out the park for them! Fast paced story that you must read!
Biker in my bed is a great collaboration of short stories by some awesome authors. This review is for “Forever kind of Love” by K. E. Osborn. This story is a continuation of the love story of Hurricane and Kaia, the President and First Lady of the NOLA Defiance MC. It catches them on their postponed honeymoon in Hawaii and details the shenanigans that only Defiance can get into. Full of action, laughter, love, family along with chaos and mayhem.
This anthology is great. Winter travers knocks it out of the park. I love Red and Tara's chemistry is off the charts. They way they Meet is funny and a thank you sets it off. Fast and easy read. Alk the others stories are great and steamy. This is a fast and easy read. I also found some other great authors to read. I love me some bikers.
This a great group of stories. I have read some from authors that I have not read before, but heard about, and authors that are old friends. Each of these stories shows the love and respect that the men have for their partners, and the respect and love their women have for them and the lifestyle. I have laughed, cheered, cried, and felt the emotions of the characters, and that is something that comes from understanding your characters and the thought that went into the plot line.
When your favorite authors come together, you get an explosion of hot bikers. All the stories are unique to each author, and each story is the perfect combination of alpha/ sweetheart. Just read it and you will not be disappointed.
A great collection of tantalizing beginnings to upcoming stories. Love Bites by Kristine Allen is fast paced right from the start. Royal and Luna’s story is going to be a good one for sure! Dive in, you won’t regret it!
