As a single mother, I’ve always been fully devoted to my son. We didn’t have a lot, but we had a good life and I made sure he didn’t experience the struggles I did when I was his age.

Love had never been something I thought I’d find, but meeting Royal changed everything. The moment our eyes connected, I knew he was it for me. He and his daughter became our world. We became a family; his MC became a part of our life.

But people from our pasts had hatred and revenge on their agenda…

What they didn’t realize, however, was that Royal would do anything to protect his own. Even if it meant destroying anyone in his path. Nobody threatened his family and lived to tell the story.

I love leanna books, but some of her plots are kinda the same. The only different thing around is the bad guy.
So please, Leann, try to make something different.

We met Royal and Naomi, and both single parents both had some troubles from their past. Naomi her baby daddy is dead and was a nice guy it's his mother who's a bitch who doesn't like her dead sons child. As for Royal his ex raped him to get prego so she can be a old lady. It worked but he never got with her he just made sure his child was with him. They start off cute and go on dates.
They get to know one another tell there tell and share stories about there kids. And when drama happened at Royal daughter school he moved in Naomi and her son. And pretty much play family until the drama comes looking for them. I won't give more away.

Thing I love about leann the way she always makes sure the parents are always there for their children

No ow/om drama, no cheating, drama, sexy times, no virgins

Royal by LeAnn Ashers, the sixth installment in the gripping “Sinners, Rebels” series, is an absolute gem that is a must-read for fans of motorcycle club romances. LeAnn Ashers once again showcases her talent for delivering a perfect balance of swoon-worthy romance and intense heat within the gritty world of an MC club.

The story follows the journey of Royal and Naomi, who from the moment their paths crossed it’s was evident that this couple was destined to make waves, and Ms Ashers masterfully crafts their spinetingling storyline, drawing readers into their lives with every page turned. What sets Royal apart is the heartwarming aspect of these characters being single parents, adding layers of depth and complexity to their relationships. The challenges and triumphs of parenthood weave seamlessly into the fabric of the story, making it even more relatable and compelling.

As with any MC romance, readers can expect a rollercoaster ride of emotions, with twists and turns that keep them on the edge of their seats until the satisfying happily-ever-after. “Royal” is a testament to LeAnn Ashers’ ability to captivate readers and immerse them in a world where love, loyalty, and passion reign supreme. Dive into the pages of “Royal” and prepare to be swept away by its irresistible charm.

This is the sixth book in the series. This book had me at single dad and single mom romance. I could tell from the blurb this was my jam. I fell for Royal and Naomi. Naomi hasn't had it easy most of her life, but her little boy is her life. The moment the Royal enters her life it's going to change forever. This book has plenty of heart, but it packs the heat and the suspense. There were moments I was on the edge of my seat. Not gonna lie some parts towards the end were a little tough for me to read. Some nasty characters, but they got what they deserved. It showed how strong Naomi truly is. Her son Donovan is a little cutie and a hellion. Royal's daughter Penny has such a sweet caring kind soul. Naomi is on the brink of living the life she has always dreamed and creating a loving family unit along with the MC brotherhood, but some really shady characters aren't going to let their HEA happen that easily. Great book that I gobbled up in a day. A great cast of characters that had me hooked right from the first page. A book I do recommend!

I’ve been impatiently waiting for Royal’s story to come out. Let me tell you it was definitely worth the wait. I just love Royal and his daughter Penny. Naomi is such a kind sweet FMC that is totally devoted to her son Donovan. I loved how Royal was patient with Naomi in their relationship. He was very protective of her and Donovan. It’s awesome how they became a close knit family. Lots of twists and turns. I just love LeAnn Ashers books. Can’t wait for the next one.

I loved this story. We finally get some more of Royal and I knew I was going to love him. I love how the author can write alpha men but show their vulnerability. This book was fast paced, well written, and kept me engaged the entire time. If you know me, you know I LOVE single parent romance and OMG we have two single parents Royal and Naomi coming together in their found family. I loved it! The kids were adorable and added some lightheartedness to the story. I just wish we had gotten a bit more of the kids after a certain addition to their found family occurred (you’ll know what I mean if you read it!). One of the things I love about this author is the epilogues that we get! It shows us a glimpse of the next generation and I love it so much. I can’t wait for what’s to come in the series.

Royal and Naomi’s story is intense. Naomi is just trying to make a life for herself and her son, and she’s doing the best she can. Once she meets Royal, she doesn’t know it at first, but everything is about to change. I liked that we were able to see more of Royal’s backstory with this one, it was nothing like I was expecting, but it made me love him more. It’s always nice to see the tough alpha biker vulnerable once he finds his person. The bond that they shared was intense and fast, but so perfect. As always, the past has a way of coming and trying to ruin the good things, but once again the MC proves they’ll do anything for their family - and Royal & Naomi will do anything for theirs.

Its almost a cinderella story, he comes in and sweeps her of her feet, whisking her away from her trailer park. Serendipitly things are changling for her at the same time, and now she has everything she could ever dream of. Their family blends quickly, and the MC welcomes them. But this is LeAnn Asher, and she always brings the drama, and this is quite action-packed with some very scary parts.

Yet again, LeAnn Ashers makes me fall in love! Not only with a swoon worthy, sexy, protective alpha biker but with the sweet, pure, and totally kick *** woman he falls for.
This whole MC is all family and protection and god help anyone who messes with any of them.
Thank u LeAnn for an absolutely amazing book

Holy carp, this book gave me whiplash.
It starts off as a sweet and light Instalove with ridiculously good looking protagonists. It gets crazy happy when which was a little over the top for me, but what the heck. I leaned into it.
So the book is full of adorable moppets: her little son, Donavan (age 2-3, I can’t remember and it doesn’t matter) who is hell on legs, his slightly older daughter Penny (in previous books it was Penelope and I think it’s a little weird that a daughter is named PENNY and her father is ROYAL.) who is somewhere between 6-8 (again, doesn’t matter except that she’s in elementary school), and Oh yeah- There are kisses and snuggles and playing on trampolines, reading books at bedtime and family French toast, plus a rather disturbing scene with a decapitated Barbie™️ doll.
It gets real dark, real fast.
SA/R/CSA victims are coming out the woodwork like it’s an old-school Oprah episode, and suddenly the book is no longer a lighthearted piece of fluffy fun. The characters demonstrate that adults and children, males and females can all be victimized by s e x u a l predators. It’s very realistic that some of the male characters are survivors of SA/CSA/R, because it doesn’t just happen to women. It gets a bit revenge porn-y up in here, but whatever works for the survivors; it’s just very dark.
Speaking of dark, the violence is extreme, graphic, and explicit. There’s a lot of it. And they eat pizza after. It takes a strong stomach to read, so if blood and gore are difficult for you, choose a different book as this might disturb you.
As I said, all of this gave me whiplash. Not that there’s a problem with revenge porn per se, but it was quite unexpected.
Here’s the breakdown:
MMC/FMC- Royal and Naomi
Genre- MC Romance
Heat- open door, explicit, moderately frequent.
Series? Y
Safety? Oh, son….
Cheating? N
Triggers- SA, R, CSA, abuse of children, attempted SA, Extremely graphic violence including detailed torture, language, sex.
Tropes- More Triggers than an NRA Swap Meet, Instalove, Adorable Moppets, Single Parent, Dysfunctional Family FTW, It Could Happen to You, Instant Family, Breeding Kink, Full-On Jael, Matchmaker Matchmaker.

Royal is a mouthwatering biker & single father to the most precious little girl so I fell in love with him from the jump. Naomi is a young single mother to a precious hell on wheels toddler who she would do anything for, and has taken care of him well with no help. The moment these two people meet, it's game over for both of them, and so their journey comes out of the gate quickly which I couldn't get enough of. Royal's little girl needs a real mom while Naomi's tiny human needs a father so they blend their families together seamlessly, and she fits in with his MC life perfectly to boot. However, her past is coming for her which puts her in danger, and his past doesn't want to leave well enough alone either, so Royal & the MC have their hands full keeping his family safe. It makes for exciting twists to keep the heart racing but that's nothing new when it comes to this author. Plus, Naomi comes into her own spectacularly when it's time to keep her family safe. There's also a great deal of heat in the pages, humor to have me laughing, and the best supporting cast so of course it's another perfect read in my eyes from this amazing author! HIGHLY HIGHLY HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

Another hit from LeAnn! I am really loving the Grim Sinners Rebels – they’re still very insta-love, but the characters are slightly different from the previous books and chapters of the MC. This installment focuses on Royal and Naomi. They are both single parents of different circumstances, and when they meet, they’re both instantly smitten with each other, and the rest is history. While we first see Naomi struggle in the beginning, throughout her relationship with Royal we see her gain more than money by way of her deceased baby daddy, and even though we know Royal and his daughter from the previous books, we find out that his daughter came about in an unconventional way and while it wasn’t planned, he has done everything possible to protect her. I loved that these two ended up together, and I also loved that they were able to give their love to other children by way of repentance for Naomi’s brother. Can’t wait for the next MC man to fall!
I voluntarily read and reviewed an Advance Reader Copy of this book.

Royal (Grim Sinners Rebels Book 6) by LeAnn Ashers 5 stars due 4/9/24
Royal & Naomi + Kids

Love at first sight? Maybe. It sure was quick. Of course, her adorable boy and his precious daughter didn't hurt the attraction. Both are single parents who love their kids. Her son's father died and you'll need to read about his situation. (you will see it in a previous book in the series)

She hadn't dated but Royal was irresistible. Watching the two with their children the reader just knows they are meant to be a family. She isn't familiar with the MC life, it doesn't take long to realize Royal got much more support from his club family than she ever got.

A touching, sweet, steamy, story with amazing characters. The enemies are the worst. The friends are the best. I was offered an early free copy which I read and this review is my own. I am rereading it already because I loved it so much.

This one that has it all don't miss it.

4 Stars!

LeAnn Ashers is back with the next book in her swoony Grim Sinners MC Rebels series. Y'all, this series is crazy good with men who are the ultimate dedicated alphas in all the ways and your can't help but fall hard.. and fast.

Royal is the sixth in this series, giving us Naomi and Royal's story and this is one you do not want to miss.. if you've been following and reading this series. Y'all these two. Whew. What a journey this was packed into a fast-paced romance. Filled to the brims with heart, heat, suspense, twists, and alllllllll of the feels.. Royal will steal your heart and have you swooning from the very, very start.

All of LeAnn's books are fantastic and this series, book are just an example of why I keep coming back.

I can't recommend this author and series enough y'all.

Ok, this author writes some pretty violent scenes which I usually just skim past because, yuck. I do this because I like the parts where I can just enjoy. It's unrealistic so often (everyone is so rich the men just adore their women from first sight etc...) but it's my guilty pleasure.

But truthfully, there was just way too much in this book. The violence, the (pretty gross) descriptions of the cartoonish villians (like their nasty anatomy, descriptions of bodily functions - sorry I just don't want to revisit some of those) and there is way too much majorly disturbing crimes committed by said villians. The worst possible things to the most-vulnerable persons/children. It's just too much here.

Sounds the like kids books are coming up an I really do love when a series goes next generation but I'm hoping the author will tone-done the violence or make it more off-page.

Royal -

Interactions with kids absolute best parts of book. Royal is attached and loves her son Donovan and hs woman loves Penny, his daughter. They also adopt an abused and neglected little girl. Kids range in age from 2-5. These are well loved kids and it shows.
In addition to the romantic relationship there are strong friendships in the story as well. The MC brothers are tight. Ans their women get along really well. This story has no catty ^..^ club girls. They eat, they drink, they torture their prisoners together. I hated the torture scenes, mostly because I’m not into that stuff. Too gory and it went on for a long time. So graphic. I’m a wuss. I would have happily taken a shopping trip instead to get little girl they adopted her princess room lol.
I do recommend this book and author. She’s my go to author when in a reading slump

This is a quick read but so enjoyable you get lost in the world of the Grim Sinners MC and I have been waiting for Royals story. This book didn't disappoint. I love how Leann Ashers rights her MC men they are cinnamon rolls for their women but whoever crosses them or the loves of their lives better watch out they will burn the world down for them but don't ever second guess the FMC's as they are just as vicious as the men. When Royal sees Naomi for the first time he knows she's meant to be his. This woman is strong and independent and has had to do everything on her own until she meets Royal. The book is fast paced and has great suspense and will keep you engaged in the story all the way though. I was given this book as an ARC for my honest review.

This is the 6th book in this phenomenal series, and this is Royal and Naomi’s story.
Royal is a member of the Grim Reapers, and is a single dad to his daughter, while Naomi is a widow and single mom to her son. From the moment that Royal and Naomi meet, there is in intense connection. Both has demons from the past comes back to haunt them, but will Royal be able to keep Naomi and her son protected and safe?
This is a well written action packed, emotional roller coaster, with danger, suspense, intrigue, family, friendships, humor, witty banter, romance, and love, which leads to an entertaining, tragic, twisted, unpredictable, haunting, and steamy addictive page turner.
I look forward to reading more from this talented author whose work I highly recommend.

I swear I say this with every book by LA but Royal is my favorite hero by her! He is such a sweetie, such a tender father to Penny. He is so gone for Naomi from the moment he sets his eyes on her. She is a loving and attentive mom, her beauty is soul deep. She is smitten with the big biker and immediately accepts when he asks her out. Things move fast and soon she is meeting his daughter. Their connection was written in the stars, they were meant for each other, I have no doubt. She is a loving woman and fiercely protective of her kids. When trouble from the past comes calling, she is willing to do whatever it takes to protect the people she loves. She is quite wonderful, she is so lovely and perfect for Royal and the Grim Sinners Rebels family! I loved this book, could not put it down!

Royal by LeAnn Ashers is book six in the Grim Sinners Rebels Series.
Naomi is a young single mom who works hard to make ends meet.
Royal is the born protector, perfectly capable keepinh Naomi and her son safe.
It took him one look at woman and son to fall for both of them, sigh how romantic that is.
When trouble finds them he has to fight for his loved ones.
This is the final book in the series, a fitting end to a great 6 bookseries that I enjoyed reading. A sweet and swoony story with instaconnection between h and H, I recommend the series.

Another fantastic story in the Grim Sinners Rebels series!! We get a sneak peek of the couple in Terror's book and I was super excited to read it and was not disappointed. Both single parents they aren't looking for anyone until they saw each other at the diner. From the very moment they met their connection was instantaneous and Royal was hooked. When trouble comes knocking at their door, can Royal protect Naomi and her son? I can't wait for the next story this amazing author releases next. Well done.

My heart ❤️.

My goodness this book was intense.
Royal and Naomi's Story was one full of heartache and it broke my heart in places knowing what they had both been through.

They were meant for each other and loved each other fiercely. They deserved the very best that life had to offer and they shared that love with their children .

But mess with their children and no one will ever see the light of day again . I loved their story and look forward to reading more in this series ❤️.

I guess I should be used to it by now. Leann you rock! Royal and Naomi have the perfect relationship he keeps the boogers away from his family. She is mama bear when it comes to her cub and she lives only for him until Royal enters her life. They make a heck of a family unit. Royal a single very protective dad and with a new family to protect he's all in. Then adding other blessings to their life is beautiful. 5 Stars all the way!

P.S. I'm stingy with my stars. lol

Another great book in the series by LeAnn. Royal and Naomi’s story started in Terror’s book.

In this book we get a deeper look into Royal and also into Naomi together and apart. Their story is perfect from their first meeting. Catch up with all your favourite characters and meet some new ones and jump into the mayhem and happily ever after for the next couple in this series.

This is book 5 in the series and I recommend reading books 1-4 before starting Royal and Naomi’s story.

Who know loving a bad boy could be so good!  Apparently Naomi knew!  One look at Royal and she was hooked and vice versa.  As all Sinners have, Royal fell and fell hard for Naomi, her son was just an added bonus.  When things go sideways, Royal is there to save the day along with the rest of the MC.  Ms. Ashers really makes you want this kind of MC to be real.  For this kind of man to be real.  Royal is definitely a MC Book Boyfriend of your dreams.

This is the 6th book in this brilliant series and is Royal and Naomi's story. Royal is a member of the Grim Sinners MC and a single dad to gorgeous Penny and Naomi is also a single mum to a cute little boy Donovan. They are introduced by Terror and his Ole lady and the connection is instant.

In true LeAnn Ashers fashion its insta love that you are totally there for. Add in red hot chemistry mixed with drama and violence and this is one hell of a page turner. With humor mixed into the violence I love the fact she makes the women in the MC just as blood thirsty as the men and gives them some of the fun.

I can't wait to see how the next book plays out.

I was gifted a copy of this book by the Author and this is my honest opinion

Royal & Naomi

Royal and Naomi took me one on neck of ride. Their both caring, loving, have huge hearts and dark side when their family is at risk. I loved seeing them go from single parents to a blended family with room for one more who needs all the love and support she can get. Those kids brought me to tears more than once. I can't wait to see what the road ahead brings as he next generation take over.

Royal and Naomi

An exquisitely captivating, sinfully seductive and beautifully heartwarming romance. All I want to know is, where do I find a man like Royal? His compassion, honesty, loyalty and love for Penny, Naomi, and Donovan captured my heart but what sealed the deal was meeting Presley. Be still my beating heart! I loved, adored and enjoyed everything about this phenomenal story.

Wow. What another amazing book by Leann Ashers. I couldn't put book down once started.

I loved Royal and Naomi together, they clicked instantly when they met. They both bring something to the relationship. Royal can't help want to protect Naomi, but she shows she doesn't need protecting in the end.

I can't wait for more.
