These books were pretty boring and once you had read one you might as well have read them all the plots were so similar. This whole MC was one of the most dull and boring clubs ever there was hardly any action at all. Most of the characters were dull and uninteresting the storylines tedious. There were plenty of grammatical mistakes but the Rocky story beat them all with the female characters name being wrong from start to finish. Sorry I found this whole series avwaste of reading time.
I really liked these stories, but wish there had been a little more description of the male characters. Also, the Rocky Story was somewhat confusing trying to translate the correct name for Liv-her best friend was Rosa, but throughout the whole story it was labeled Rosa & the name Liv was correctly used about 2 times. Not sure how something that important & major was missed during the editing/proofreading phase. I caught it right away-it should be fixed for future readers. Other than that, I liked the characters & each of their stories-wish we found out if Rex ended up as Mayor though, lol.
Boring boring boring! I really wanted to finish reading, but I just could not justify the wasting of my time! Stories are too long too droning, drag on too long They are not exciting, only when the characters are about to do something stupid! I read the first two books The two brothers who are the sons of President Mc In the first book MFC. Is literally 2S2L dumber than a box of rocks. First stealing expensive shoes from a store owned by a dangerous violent Mc club known to traffic women! And worse! They literally tell her they are going to traffic her! And even after her friend puts her on a bus to her cousin Otis’s Mc club in another state.. she gets on a bus and goes right back to turn herself into the violent club. Knowing they will SA her .. force her into prostitution, and most likely eventually kill her! Instead of staying with the Mc Club that was protecting her! And if that wasn’t enough she continued to steal or tried too. Tried to steal a ruby pendant at a outdoor market in full view of public. And after she stole $50 out of MC wallet for her ridiculous bus ticket , she proceeds to steal a candy bar because she refuses to use the remaining cash to buy a $5 sandwich of which she gets caught immediately!!! Knowing she has to lay low cause a gang is after her .. getting arrested is gonna put her in public eye!. Omg! How stupid can you get? Apparently even more so.. other dumb things are done by both MFC and MC .. but wait there is more! if you thought like me…that the next book couldn’t possibly be as boring or have dumb MC’s doing stupid things .. you and i both thought wrong. In the next book . The younger brother is attached by a rival gang member. I refuse to call them an MC club, they just don’t behave like one at all! Trying to “mug” him? and the MC in self defense unalives him.. so older brother and Mc covers it up but the rival club knows they did it. So they put plans into motion,to Get revenge so blaze DECIDED to turn himself over to the Rival gang .. knowing they will kill him! Face palms! Really? And by the way while I’m on about the MC .. they behave like a teenager gang or a hood gang rather than an MC .. SO LETS DISCUSS The smexy stuff in both books, THEY were so vanilla it was boring. I LITERALLY NODDED OFF SEVERAL TIMES! no a joke no kidding! I literally decided to just skim and eventually just skipped past it altogether. Everyone in book behaved childish, and Juvenil.. the “constant rolling of eyes”. By male characters. Who are supposed to be big bad bikers ., honestly seemed more like teenager girls! Especially Blaze !I wanted to smack him. The level of whining and complaining from him was childish! And smex was. Very male oriented! He gets o r a l, but she doesn’t? Huh? And a lot of slamming it in. Rutting like a teenaged male and it’s over. Was this written by a 13 boy? Or a 13 yr old girl Or worse some super bored housewife in her 40s who thinks that is all there is to smexy times. Super sad! Her hubby must be a one pump chump. If she thought that vanilla stuff was the hottest she could come up with! The plots were good . However badly developed and written. And for the love of.. could someone please explain to me what the name “blaze” has anything to do with Cain & able ? Huh? I’m soo confused When FMC finds out his name is blaze . She says , “like Cain & able?” He responds “yeah, I get that a lot”. What? Huh? I literally debated on this for 15 mins and. Could not move on .. I tried so hard to figure out what the connection was? I just could not care to read the remaining 3 books ! Sad I was looking forward to this collection! It wouldn’t be so bad if the stories were shorter. Cut out all the filler and redundancy in the stories would cut them down to half. And I could at least stomach the remaining books but they are just tooo long tooo boring . Very little happens just a not very good read .. at all! Pass DNF
Dante: a bit anticlimactic for an MC romance. No real drama or grit. It's definitely spicy but could be spicier. There is some drama, especially with the klepto that is the lead female character getting into trouble with a rival MC. You'll never believe over what. Some of the author's choices in the story will have you palming your forehead, they're just so random and out there. If they made sense, it would be okay. But they don't. Not sure if I'll finish the entire box set but this first book was just okay.
Blaze- Blaze & Bella: triggers: kidnapping and assault. The second book of the series follows Blaze, Dante’s little brother. We saw blaze get into some trouble in the previous book and now he's a member of the Thunder Bikers MC. Bella is the owner of a coffee shop working alongside her sister despite what her father the sheriff wants. Blaze and Bella start off hot and heavy but blaze has a hard time balancing club life with his life with Bella. This was not my favorite book. It was actually kind of boring. Since Blaze is teetering between being a member and not, there's not a lot of connection to the club. I didn't like it. Hunter- Hunter & Brittney: (triggers: hacking, kidnapping, assault, politics) this book was very interesting and extremely sexy but the end was extremely lackluster. Hunter is the club's “researcher”. When they get a job involving a politician, he seeks the aid of an old friend, Brittney. However, Brittney has unknowingly been working for some bad people and also needs protection. These two are very hot but I expected more from the main story with the politician. The author could've done so many things. Instead I was left feeling, blah.
Rocky: Rocky & Rosa- triggers: assault, tampering with evidence. So this book almost ruins the entire series because the author totally messed this one up. First off, there's a really huge mistake in this book. The author messed up the name of the heroine, starting from chapter TWO! Secondly, this book was more boring than the previous books, nothing really happens and I still have the same complaint that there's not enough drama involving the actual club members. It's always one or two members but never all of them, no parties or anything. Not even a connection with the new “old ladies”. I also didn't understand why Rocky had a bike but he was walking everywhere. Really? I can't… I'm hoping there's only one book left because this series is working my nerves at this point.
Rex - Rex & Bella. 🤦🏾♀️. It just gets worse and worse. Rex is told by Otis to go do a protection detail on a woman and to get to know her. The woman is a teacher so they pull strings and he's sitting in the class while Bella teaches. They get to know each other and start getting involved. It's pretty quick that you can figure out what's going on with the book. And despite a mention of someone making trouble for other chapters of the club… we never see any actual trouble and never hear about it again. It's all just blah.
Kyler- Kyler & Diane: well 8 have to say that this book is just as disappointing as the previous such l six. there's no antagonist and the author once again fails to dig deep into the characters so you can begin to root for their relationship. Kyler spends the first few chapters whining about being made to go transfer to Greensboro because of something he did in San Diego. I have to say this entire series was a waste of time.
Dante Dante is part of his dad's MC and gets a job watching over a woman that's a friend of the family. Hazel is friends with Becca and steals a pair of shoes from a store run by a MC. She had no idea what would happen until two guys followed her and asked for money or they would kidnap her to make them the money. Becca calls some family and asks for help with Hazel's problem. Hazel goes to Greensboro via a bus and meets Dante when he picks her up. Sparks fly between them as they bicker, and he tries to keep track of her. Will he be able to protect her? Will they find something together?
Blaze Blaze is Dante's brother and is usually in some kind of trouble. His dad finally lets him in the MC and his first job he sees Bella in a coffee shop and is drawn to her. When the job ends Blaze starts taking trip to the shop just to see Bella. Soon, they start seeing each other. Then club issues start popping up and something Blaze did comes to light. Can they be together? Is she safe?
Hunter Hunter is a hacker and its those skills he uses to help the MC. However, this time he comes up against something he can't break into. This has him reaching out to someone from his past. Brittany is a hacker secretly and works at a bagel shop during her days. When Hunter shows back up, she knows that trouble isn't far behind. Turns out the firewall he needs down is one she was paid to put up. When things get complicated, she turns to Hunter for help. Will he be able to keep her and her friend safe? Will Hunter and Brittany grow closer during their time together?
This is an amazing collection that will hook you in the first story. Once I started this collection I couldn't put it down. This is a well written and very entertaining collection. Its a collection that any book lover would enjoy.
I voluntarily read and reviewed this book for Bad Boy Update.
For a motorcycle club there isn't much action...only 2 stories have any action....the rest are bad boys trying to prove they aren't "bad boys"
Dantes story was a good introduction but slow. However there was a slip up on names (it's hard enough that her name is Hazel, it's changed to Heather for her safety then Dante almost calls her Oli..... honestly I laughed out loud thinking he was going to call her an ex's name....but nope. It was a typo)
Blazes story was my favorite. Growth, devopment. An actual love story. It actually felt like there was a connection between all the stories.
Then, Hunters story. Hunter betrayed his friend whom he had feelings for and now he needs her help. But she got herself in her own trouble. Another good hook about love and forgiveness and some character development. But a stand alone and I struggled to figure out if the stories were going to be connected.
Rocky. THIS IS THE MOST FRUSTRARING BOOK! Not because of the plot, but the names.....her name is Rosa, her best friend....is Rosa....Rosa's kid's call her aunty Liv, Rocky calls her Liv.... what is her NAME!.....ANYWAY.......Rocky is the enforcer of the group and after getting set up ends up in anger management therapy where he gets the hot for the therapist extern. Ok...it's not horrible but her past kind of gets thrown in and it's a lot of in their head conversations where she pushes him away without explaining and how is someone suppose to grow in a relationship if you don't talk?
Next is Rex, it's an ok story. Nothing happens, except a single mom, and a love story. You read one you read them all.
Finally, Tyler. Again. A love story. You read one. You read them all.
I didn't hate these books, but they didn't really hit me as an MC.... Maybe MC Lite? The books aren't horrible. I think with a little work they could have been good, but I definitely had some issues with them. Here are a few that stuck out...
First of all the name of the club did not sound scary or commanding at all. I kept thinking Saturday morning cartoon. "THUNDER BIKERS!" 2ndly nobody uses condoms or even discusses birth control... EVER! Which is stupid in this day and age. Pregnancy is the least of your worries now when you have unprotected sex! Third the whole premise of the first book is silly. They are after the heroine because she stole a pair of shoes AND the way she kept escaping Dante's protection and going back to Boston is dumb... Some of the other plots are equally as weak. And finally DID NOBODY PROOFREAD (Rocky or Rex) and Sara/Ivy's book??? Each chapter alternates between the hero or heroine's point of view. The hero's chapter is labeled Rocky or Rex (sorry, I can't remember who Ivy was with) The Heroine's chapter is labeled Sara... BUT Sara is the Heroine's best friend and she is clearly called Ivy several times in the book. WTH?!?!? This one REALLY bugged me! Sorry if I seem nitpicky, but I read a LOT of Biker books and these just came up a little short.

I have never given less then a four star rating for a book where the author appeared to be trying. But with the confusion in the book of Rocky, I really can’t give more than a three and that is pushing it. The story is wonderful but very disappointing when trying to figure out who Rosa is….. Rocky girl or Livs friend or is Rocky’s girl Liv? The beginning of her chapters have Rosa but then it’s Liv, sometime Rocky calls her Liv but then Rosa……. I’m so confused……. Trying to finish the series but at this point , why?
Dreadful book only got 13 chapters into first story - Dante & had to give up. The writing is stilted, disjointed and clunky. The characters are unbelievable and as others have said the most lame MC club ever. Hazel is just a thieving lowlife, and really basing a plot on her stealing a pair of shoes- weak!!! Dante is the furthest thing from an MC biker protector I’ve ever read. The rest of the books do not get better judging by the reviews and one even forgets the main females name apparently - not good at all - doesn’t deserve any stars.
Blair Grey did a great job on this series, the plots and characters were strong, the stories were written well, they were packed with action, suspense, drama and more. Dante, Blaze, Hunter, Rocky, Rex, Kyler and their women were made for each other, they're connections were intense, like like their chemistry which was off the charts, they were made for each other. I enjoyed each of these stories. Thank you, Blair Grey. Great work :)
This exciting series has six amazing stories about the MC brothers comprised of the Thunder Bikers MC. Each story follows the journey into the lives of Dante, Blaze, Hunter, Kyler, Rex and Rocky and the women they chose to share their lives with. the stories are filled with action-packed drama that kept me glued to the pages from start to finish. I am volunteering to leave a review for an ARC of this series.
I absolutely love MC romance. Blair Grey is a phenomenal author. I love her characters and fully addictive stories that I just want to keep reading. This box set is full of yummy alpha males and the women that are perfect matches for them Dante, his little brother Blaze. As well as Hunter, Rocky, Rex, and Kyler. The action and drama in this book had me flipping through the pages. I loved the experience of reading this series.
So I purchased this set 14/03/24 and as soon as I started reading it I knew I'd read them all before, I've looked at all of my purchases and can't seem to find it anywhere amongst my Blair Grey books and I'm positive they weren't the Thunder Bikers before, I may be wrong 🤷. Books were ok I've read them twice now, would they be on my to be read again list no they won't sorry, but if you haven't read this author before then it's a good place to start.
I only managed the first story. The build up was good, I was looking forward to the outcome, but there was no action. Hazel was too intent on sticking her nose in his business, and pouting about it, if it was a real MC I doubt he would have stood for it. Couldn't get into it after all that, really disappointed
This MC isn't as family oriented as the others that I have read but they still gave each others backs. The book Rocky had me confused as to who his love interests name was the chapters were titled Rosa but the best friend of the main female was named Rosa every once in awhile the name Liv was thrown in. But over all great story lines.
This was going well...until ROCKY. I'm reading along and getting to Chapter Two, Rosa but it's reading from Livie's POV, not Rosa's. Is Rosa the Doctor with two kids or is she the newbie counselor that has the dipwad boss?
Not sure if I should skip this story and continue the series or chuck it.

⭐️⭐️ = struggle to finish I only read the first book, Dante It was a struggle to read for me as I am not really a easy romance book reader the story was very straightforward from the beginning I expected more to come of Hazel drama with the vipers or even Blaze but it didn't happen. So I won't be finishing the series. I will go back to reading my dark romance books instead
Arc review For honest Review in my own words.This box series is packed with action, suspense, drama and more. Dante, Blaze, Hunter, Rocky, Rex, Kyler and their women were made for each other besides the chemistry between each of them .I enjoy each story of the bikers of the thunder mc.
Do you enjoy reading books about MCs? Then this book series just may be for you. Each book is about a different man but the stories are intertwined with the previous characters to a point which I enjoy. #badboyupdate
These several stories all tied together very well. They have enemies to lovers in every story. Some of the descriptive words didn't seem to work well but it got the point across.
DNF: I tried, I really did to read this book but I finally gave up at about 30% in. This is not good. The story is boring I didn't connect with the characters. I was hoping that it would pick up. This was available on Kindle Unlimited. I would NOT recommend this book/series.
Loved this six book box set. Each man works for thunder bikers Mc and each find women that match their personalities and are just as Fiesta. A great read!
