HawkI’m the joker, the clown. I make my brothers laugh, and I make women feel good. It’s a gift, to make laughter in the darkest of times, but don’t be fooled by my charm. Just because I can tell a joke, and just because I can make you laugh, it doesn’t mean I won’t protect my club, my brothers, and those that I love. Hawk is the life and soul of any party. Men want to be him and women want to bed him, but things change. Life changes, and Hawk’s life is about to change in a way he isn’t prepared for.

I'm a self published author. I fell in love with reading as an adult, when I found the romance genre. I immediately got sucked into the stories and fell in love.
The romcom, the dark, the Suspense, all of them!

I struggled a lot with reading and writing when I was younger. Being dyslexic made it extremely hard for me, but I loved writing stories even then.

I wrote Rise Above in secret too scared and embarrassed that it wasn't good enough, that people would laugh at it, at me.
My husband pushed me to take the leap. So I did. Not having an editor to start with and a friend making my cover it scary jumping into a world your unsure of what to do. Learning as I go.
Its the best decision I ever made. The response was amazing.
I am currently working on the rest of the series. And plan on writing until I run out of words.
I love it and one thing I've learnt is you only live once and you should to do what you love and what makes you happy.
I hope that people enjoy my stories as much as I enjoy writing them.

Note to self: Hero brings OW home to f¥ck in chapter 25, 75% in the book. Heroine catches them making out on the couch, is jealous and storms off. But immediately spreads her legs when the H chases her, while the OW who he was making out with just seconds before is still downstairs. 🤢🤮 The H and h aren’t together at this stage but have a connection, or at least she thought so. He clearly didn’t feel the same way.

These guys just keep getting better!

This story has it all…. Trauma, heartbreak, humour, heart and heat…so much of each..oh and quite a bit of bloodshed….which all just adds to the madness and fun of this MC world.

I loved Hawk in Rage’s story …from the ending of that book, I would never have guessed the direction Hawks story would take and that’s a real credit to Ms Campbell for that massive curveball!!! My heart broke from the first page for Hawk and everything his life had been…I would have loved more of his journey to becoming a member of the MC.
This story is such a wonderful addition to the series…I loved Hawk and his ol’ lady…she’s quirky but boy is she strong when she needs to be!!
Any lady who gets to say ‘Oh Hawk, I’m gonna……!’ on a regular basis is very lucky indeed!!😂😂

Oh and can I just say….I’m so excited to get to know the next brother😉

LG Campbell promised she wouldn't pull another Hidden Truths ... and she kept her word but still managed to break my heart yet again. Maybe I just fall in love too easily. Maybe I dwell too much on the "what-ifs," the forks in the road. I love Hawk, and although he claims to have not been in love with the woman he was secretly meeting, I wonder if his affections would have grown into something more, and I mourn what could have been, and I grieve for a mother that was taken from a baby too young to understand or even remember the moments they shared. Then we meet Josie...

Josie is such a sweetheart, caring for little Maisy and as well as caring for the family around Maisy. Not only does she take on nannying the little ones, but she helps Hawk heal and work through his grief as he adjusts to life with a baby after the chaos that happened in the last book. There is so much constantly happening in this series, and the plot can be wild and stressful, but the stories are so full of love, and the HEA is absolutely worth the process!

"This is me showing you that you are mine. I don't want anyone else. All I want is you. I want you as my ol' lady. I want you to be the mother to my kids, whether this happens right now or not. You are all I want, and you are all I ever fucking need. I don't love you darlin', I fucking worship you. I am completely and utterly fucking infatuated with you,"
.

I don't know what is happening to this series but I am finding myself not really enjoying it, which is sad because I absolutely loved the first two books. I love Hawk's personality I love how he was the funny guy and had the banter and sassy attitude but then comes along his book and again just like Rage it was completely gone and I don't really like how it changes when it comes to their books. Josie was a fun character and I absolutely loved her British personality being British myself it was done without feeling like they were just mocking us, I am just really looking for a book where there isn't so much trauma from everyone that would be nice. I know beast's book is next and I adore him and his personality I just really hope he doesn't lose himself like it seems everyone else does when it gets to their book. I will say I find this writing really well and I know that I will gladly read more from this author in the future.

I just cannot get enough of the Black Hearts MC men!

I’ve always had a cheeky eye on Hawk in the series, always popping up with his flirtatious ways, but this book shows him in a new light!

With trouble brewing following on from the previous book, Hawk lands himself right in the centre of it. Having to find his way of this new life he has to lead, he needs help - and not just from his brothers. In strolls the beautiful, kind and calming Josie. Experienced in the right areas, but maybe inexperienced in the sheets - but she’s damn good at her job, meaning the MC want her to stick around. With that, comes protection and boy does she need it.

Absolutely loved the story between Hawk and Josie, and I’m so glad to see beyond ‘just’ the flirt banger he shows, but god, his filthy mouth just adds to it 🥵🥵🥵🥵

Another amazing book!

This was an incredible mc romance and perfectly well written. While it starts off as tear jerker and then turn out to have laugh out loud moments. L. G Campbell has gone and done another fabulous book and it really sucks you in from the start and can't wait until the next one.

Hawk the joker of the MC ends a friends with benefits liaison, but when she disappears without trace, he senses something isn’t right. He goes to find her and returns back at the club with his baby daughter.

Josie, an English rose, recently split from her abusive ex applies for the job as Nanny. Danger from more than one direction soon comes calling.

I was gripped from the very first page of this emotional rollercoaster bursting with action, angst, danger, melancholy to bliss and of course the humour and banter of the Black Hearts MC

I am a huge fan of L G Campbells books and the Black Hearts series just gets better with each story. The teaser at the end of this book has left me impatient for the next one.

Hawk is an amazingly written, fast paced and emotional read that I absolutely flew through reading. I was gripped from the start and couldn’t put it down. I loved Hawk and Josie and thought they were perfect for each other. Their chemistry absolutely sizzled off the pages. Hawk is the joker of the MC but he hides a lot of pain behind his mask. I loved watching him with his daughter and how he stepped up and did the right thing by her. I loved Josie, I loved how quirky she was but most of all I loved her strength and how she came into her own near the end of the story.

I’ve loved catching up with all the Black Hearts MC, but my favourite scenes were the ones with Star, I always love how brutally funny she is and again I always enjoy seeing her put the boys in their places. As always LG Campbell has absolutely smashed my expectations and delivered another amazing read. I love all of Lauren’s books but this one is by far my favourite book so far that she’s written. That being said after the ending of this one I’m really looking forward to reading Beasts story.

Oh my god..

When I thought this series could not get any better, L.G.Campbell knocks this out of the park!

I honestly need her to stop writing because just when I think I have found my favourite, she goes and throws another curveball.

I love the fact we have the full back story on Hawk and we still continue to have the others involved in the story line.

Star continues to have me laughing my head off, and the outlaw family has my full attention.

This is another 5 star read, and I can't wait for Beasts story next...

Hawk

Swoon worthy 🔥🥵 this is one hot read. I absolutely loved Hawk and Josie’s story ❤️❤️❤️ their chemistry sent me over the edge. Hawk’s romancing skills leave a lot to be desired but he had me laughing at his antics. Some of the book was very sad and painful for him but it’s a definite page turner and very entertaining. 100% recommend this book to everyone ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ you will not be disappointed 😎

The mighty fall

LG Campbell did Hawk's story with so much emotion.
Hawk the joker, the man slut because broken when the detective who helps his club dies leaving him a single father. Reading how he grieves is heart breaking . Josie the nanny running from an abusive ex. Caught in the cross fire with her association with the club.
Can these two find love with each other. Well you have to read. I totally enjoyed this book and the complete series so far.

I went into this story, ready to not like it, thinking it was gonna be about Hawk and the detective. Then I started not liking it for different reasons. The romance felt so fake to me. It honestly just felt like lust, wrapped in a bow and labeled love. And what is up with the the FLs always seeing the MLs hooking up with someone, then instantly letting them touch them when they were JUST with someone else. Fkn pathetic.

My favourite so far this series!!!

I love this group of men who live by their own rules and love with their whole hearts.

When Hawks live changes one night, can he find what he needs in life. This book is really fast-paced and doesn't let up until the very end. I don't want to give too much away, but be prepared to be taken on a ride.

LG Campbell did an excellent job. I was happy and sad by the story. This book is great because it introduces you to a new characters while allowing you to observe what's happening in the lives of the previous ones. I adore reading about Hawn and how strong he is in spite of everything that happened to him. I cant wait for the next book.

I thought I already had my favorite Black Hearts MC character before reading this book but I wrong.
Hawk is my favorite. Have to LOVE the bad boy joker turned daddy. Because there is NOTHING they won't do for their families and add the MC into the mix and its whole lot more!

wild ride

Wow what an emotional ride. Can’t give a spoiler but this book was not what I was expecting in a good way. I would give 5 stars but the grammatical errors are rough still a great story. Can’t wait for Beast story!

Book four in the Black Hearts MC series. When hawk a a fling with a girl things get complicated. She leaves him without a trace. He has a bad feeling so he goes after her. Not knowing she left a beautiful surprise for him to fine. Now he’s home and needs help. That’s where Josie comes at play. The club is something new for her. She’s ready for it though. A beautiful ending to an emotional story about a man that’s broken. Where he fines his home.

Another amazing addition to this series!

Hawk is always the joker of the group and uses his humour as a mask, he's been through a lot, his childhood wasn't the best. But suddenly his world comes crashing down around him with a secret that throws his life into turmoil. Can Hawk survive this? Can he rise to the challenge and does he want to? He has some big decisions to make.

This book has hot steamy spice, lots of funny moments, even in the darkest of chapters, drama and angst. All your favourite characters (Rage 😍) from the previous books are here and it was nice to catch up!

I loved reading this series and finding out the background to each of the MC Bikers alongside the drama of the group. Hawk's story is as always written to the best of abilities. Erotic, thrilling, hilarious!!
It is definitely a page turner but hey all of LG Campbells work is.

PS I vote for Beast next!!
