Haze and Anna

This is another addition to an amazing MC series of the Savage Legion MC. I have come to love the men in this club and Haze is no different. This story was filled with steam, drama and secrets that made it a huge page turner. I always look forward as to what comes next from this author.

3.5** A Savage and a Jewel
The storyline is well written and the characters are likeable. The MC has a softer side than others; it is more family orientated and more tolerant of attitudes and behaviours, especially the club whores. There is all the usual drama associated with this club. This read is typical Savage Legion style and is predictable because of the theme. Anna has fled her hometown from coercive brother and miserable ex, and settled under a false name. Her relationship with Haze and the club arrives through needing help. She is pleasant and sociable to the point of being unaware of threat in her belief that it is all left behind her.
Haze is a typical MC brother, fast and hard living, with fast and hard loving especially the club women who hang around, until he meets Anna and begins to protect and fall in love with her.
Desperate Brittany , on the sidelines, is the regular hard done by woman, clinging desperately and determined to become an ol lady, whose behaviour eventually gets her banned..but typically, all is forgiven and she is allowed back.
Savage Legion to the rescue when needed and it all leads to a happy ending.
It is simple but entertaining, not too dark and yet has undertones of club life for it not to be too light.

The next installment in the Savage Legion MC series. She is a beautiful redhead running from her past. He is a brother in the Savage Legion MC, and when MC business causes her car to go off the road, he takes it personally. He is determined to be by her side as she recovers. They have chemistry, they flirt and circle each other before they can't put it off any more. The character development is good, you get a sense of him through his thoughts, his relationship with his brother and club members. You understand her through descriptions, thoughts about her family and her sense of humor. It is nice to see romantic characters bond over a shared sense of humor as well as in other ways. This is not a very long book so the plot is not too twisty, and the romance unfolds pretty much as expected. It is longer than a novella so you do get a detailed and nuanced story. For those that enjoy the MC romance genre, these are a nice series. There is some MC drama but not too much violence long tangents. The romance is also always central.

This is the 8th book in the Savage Legion MC series featuring Haze and Anna's steamy MC romance full of action, drama, mystery and suspense. Anna is trying to run from her past which includes her ex-fiance and her stepbrother. When Anna decides to go look for a job at the clubhouse of an MC she meets Haze and who knew that one decision would change their lives. Anna leaves because she doesn't think the clubhouse is where she belongs. Afterwards she's in a car accident and Haze comes riding to her rescue since he's feeling very protective of the beautiful redhead. Haze is determined to be with Anna throughout her recovery which is how the two of them really start bonding together. I don't want to say anymore and ruin it for anyone else with spoilers. You really need to read this steamy MC romance to see what happens.

This installment of the Savage Legion MC is about Vapor's twin, Haze, he never has any intention of settling down like his brother, he is having too much fun. He never Anna coming but she does upends his world.

Anna is on the run from her ex and her stepbrother, she heads into the Savage Legion clubhouse for a job but it seems not like the place for her. She crosses paths with the Savage Legion when she is in a car accident courtesy for the Diggers. Haze never leaves her side after she is found in the car. When she is released from the hospital she comes to stay with him.

Anna starts to see there is more to Haze and his club then at first meets the eye. There is plenty of steamy scenes, romance and action when what Anna is running from finds her.

Haze’s Jewel is the eighth story in the Savage Legion MC series. Haze’s Jewel follows the adventures of Annalese and Haze. I can’t get enough of reading MC romance stories, I find them to suspenseful and a page turner, just like I do with Haze’s Jewel. I fell in love with both Annalese and Haze, I found them to be entertaining, enjoyable and overall intriguing. Haze’s Jewel storyline is beautifully written and executed by author Aria Ray. Haze’s Jewel is the first story that I have read by this author and it did NOT disappoint me in anyway whatsoever. I certainly hope other readers read this book, it’s absolutely amazing.

Anna didn't have a good first impression of the MC, her second one wasn't much better as it was filled with drama and chaos and left her hurt very badly, which wasn't the fault of the guys, just collateral damage. It was nice to see the club step up to help her, especially Haze. It helped that he was smitten with her from the first meeting. Anna needed the help and support, so having Haze by her side was great! They were able to build a friendship that morphed into more.

Sadly things from Anna's past that she was trying to flee came back at her fast. Once again the club stepped up to help, which she greatly needed. The threat was taken care of, leaving smooth sailing for Anna and Haze's future.

Haze and Anna. She comes into his bar looking for a job and when theres a fight she gets spooked and leaves. Leaving him to think shes not returning. A rival MC runs her off the road and he pulls her out and takes her to the hospital. Later he finds out shes new in town and needs a place to stay so he offers. Bad idea because not only does he love redheads but she a firecracker to boot. And when her past comes calling hes about to show her anoher side of him he hopes doesnt spook her again. This was a great and entertaining read. Couldnt put it down.

Loved the story. Haze rescues Anna from a car accident and makes himself her protector. He doesn't realize that she will become an important person in his life. Anna thinks Haze his hot and while staying with him she developes feelings that she doesn't think he has for her. This was a great story filled with yearnings for a family, emotions that sneak up on the couple and a happy ending. I loved reading this book.

Steamy Romance, Humor, Suspense, Action & More!

Haze's Jewel is the eighth book in the Savage Legion MC series. It is a page-turner with drama, humor, suspense, action, steamy hot romance, and more. The characters are engaging and endearing. They continue to grow on me as they are not perfect and are so relatable. Haze and Annalese are so right for each other, and having them find their happily ever after made me smile and sigh.

Venom's Sting is the next book in the series, and I can hardly wait!.

Haze doesn't think twice about the pretty redhead that come into the clubhouse looking to fill the bar tending job only to run off when things get rough.
Yet he feels compelled to stick by her side when she gets caught in the crossfire of club business and needs looking after.
This book had a few twist and turns but most of all Haze was just the sweetest member so far, these two barely knew each other yet Haze made sure everyone knew she was his..yet there is always one thick headed Bunny that just doesn't take the hint.
Can't wait for the next one.

thoroughly enjoyed

I was captivated by the characters and did not want stop reading until I finished it. I wish there was an epilogue. I wanted to find out if they got their wish. She was running from her crazy brother and her ex. They harassed and physically abused her. Her biker stood in their way. It is a very good story. HEA, no cheating, no cliffhanger. Recommend this book.

Savage Legion MC book 8 Haze & Anna

Anna was running from her Ex. and her step brother. She overheard a conversation between the two that scared her. She went to Savage Legion,s Club Bar to apply for a job. She didnt get the job, but she got in a car accident and Haze saved her life and fell in Love, Haze never thought of himself as the settling down type, but when you know you know.
I have to mention the Club Girls are out of control in this one. Makes it intertaining !

[Sharon Collachi · Rating 4 out of 5]

Like the series, but the club girls disrespect has gotta go

Why on earth would the President tolerate the club girls blatantly disrespecting the old ladies and invited guests of a patched brother?? One insult, you're out for the week. Two is permanent. And I can't believe the author hasn't had the President's old lady give him an ultimatum about it.

Maybe by the end of the series this will be fixed.

[GKP2460 · Rating 4 out of 5]

Haze's Jewel is book 8 in the Savage Legion MC series and is Haze and
Anna's story. It's quite a journey between this biker who loves women and this redhead who's dysfunctional step brother keeps creating trouble at every turn. Lucky for her Haze takes quite an interest in Anna and has a thing for redheads. Their story has lots of surprises, is chaotic and it's fair share of danger.

Things keep going wrong for Anna. She is trying to run from her step-brother and ex-fiance. She ends up in a serious car accident after being caught in an ambush between two rival MCs.

Haze steps up to help Anna since she is an innocent bystander. Feels grow between them as Anna recuperates from her injuries. It is a nice story. It isn't hot and heavy.

very good

Anna has been in a very serious accident. Haze is trying to get her out of her jeep. He takes her to hospital, she is in a coma, finally wakes up. Haze stays with her the whole time, and makes the important decisions for her. There are twists and turns, kidnapping, plots being made. I highly recommend this.

[Darcy · Rating 4 out of 5]

After rescuing Anna, Haze is in denial about what he wants, but there is no denying how protective he is. As the suspense builds, Haze is left to wonder who is out to get him by threatening Anna. The story can be slow moving at times, but is worth the read.
