Nashville Stanley is the Dark Horse MC. James Bishop doesn’t know who she is. She’s signed on the dotted line with instant regret. She’s made a huge mistake. He’s got more regrets than he can count. She knows the only way out is death. Her life is a mess. He knows he’s too old for her. She knows she’s too young for him. They will never work.
Hayley Faiman was born and raised in the Central Valley of California. She and her husband met when they were still in High School. They were married a few years later. They lived in Oregon while her husband was in the US Coast Guard. After living in Hill Country, Texas, for eight years and three years in East Texas, they now call North Carolina home and spend their time with their two teenage sons at all their events, screaming from the stands as they swim their hearts out!
I have come to love this author’s MC books and she has never let me down on giving me over the top books I can’t get enough of. Sure this is a big age gap but does it really matter when two people are made for each other. This is the case of smexy Nash who was the Prez for the Dark Horse MC and James the woman he wants to protect.
I know we talk about chemistry and being made for each other but in the case of Nash and James that is exactly what this author delivers. The steam between these two was amazing and I couldn’t get enough of it. All I can say it that this was definitely a five star plus book for me and as always, I can’t wait to see what this author brings next.
Let me just say that when I see a new book by Hayley Faiman I know I won’t be disappointed. I love her books, especially the MC books.And this book does not stray from that. In a previous book we see Vixen asking the Dark Horse MC to take care of her daughter ,James. Fast toward to present day…. Nash and his brothers pull over a tractor trailer that is filled with women being sent to slighter,not realty but they are being sold by the Southern Mafia. See they deal in the skin trade. Nash sees this one young ,pretty girl and knows immediately she’s James. Takes her off the truck and this is when the real action starts. The situation that these are in is unreal. Let’s now talk about the age gap. It’s not just any age gap …. It’s…. 34 YEARS!! I did not know how to feel about it. She’s younger than his son. But let me tell you I really was invested in these two. All I wanted was for these two to work out. She needed him and he needed her. Their story was a much needed read. It was a slow burn but what a burnt it was. But Hayley what’s up with the ending?? I need to know more.

This is the 6th book in this incredible series and this is James and Nash’s story. James has had a tough and sheltered life being raised by her grandparents, which leaves her feeling a tad lost, and she finds herself being trafficked. Nash is protective, possessive, knows what he wants, and is not afraid to go after it, and he is sent to rescue James. This is a well written fast paced, action packed story, with family, friendships, emotions, angst, drama, danger, suspense, intrigue, an age gap, grumpy / sunshine, opposites attract, touch her and die vibes, challenges, regrets, violence, humor, witty banter, forbidden romance, and love, which leads to an entertaining, tragic, twisted, unpredictable, and heartwarming addictive page turner. I look forward to reading more from this talented author whose work I highly recommend.
Whoa! One word besides fantastic to describe this book- HOT! And the 36 years age gap- I. LOVED. IT! Nash was one sexy as hell silver Fox daddy! Nash and James were decades apart in age, but they were completely perfect together! I loved everything about from their story. From their age difference, to his possessive and protective natures, to how caring and unselfish James was, and of course the sexy times! This was easily, hands down my favorite in the series! And how about Gil!?! I don’t know who this Gil guy is, BUT I do know I want more of him and the new Southern Mafia!! Once again Hayley has written an amazing page turner! I can’t wait to see what’s coming next!
OK. So, when I saw that this would be a so extreme age-gap story I thought that I wouldn’t be able to relate with the main characters at all – I mean, I never had a problem with age-gab romances, but 36 years is a bit extreme. However, since the hints we got in the previous book in the series (Filthy Liar) I was really intrigued. And this story certainly didn’t disappoint.
I loved Nash. He is such a down-to-earth guy. He is mature, not only in age but mostly personality wise. And I know that most will say that it is a given to be more mature personality wise since you are nearly close to the sixth decade in life, but truth being told, that is not necessarily the case for many people – especially men. That being said, I loved how well he knows himself. He has no illusions. He knows who he is, what he has going on for him as a man, as a father, as a grandfather, as a leader of his men – because he may not be the actual president of the club anymore, but he still commands the respect and is heard by everyone – not only but especially his veteran (club wise) men. He is the one the younger generation of the club seeks for advice when needed. So, he doesn’t waste time denying his attraction to James – he knows exactly where he stands, he sees through everything. He attempts to start it as something casual, but even in the beginning he knows that it is more. James is great heroine – Old Lady material, although in the beginning she is more insecure and struggles with the realization of the mess she has made with her life. Nash is her designated protector so she clings on him, but she knows pretty early on that what she feels for him is real. And age is just a number. So, the struggle with the stereotypes is there, but it is relatively easily overcome in my opinion. I loved how the Dark Horse MC family reacts to her presence, despite Kings initial surprise and a bit of struggle, which is realistic (it wouldn’t be believable otherwise). The story is a rollercoaster of events that left me breathless and thirsty for more, page by page.
All in all, I loved every page of this story. I highly recommend it. 5 stars.

This is the sixth book of the dark horse MC, but it can be read as a complete standalone. If you read them in order, you will have a better experience because characters and previous books do make an appearance in this book as well as events and places seen in previous stories. Do appear in this one.. feeling like she had no choices after her parents kicked her out. She signed her life away to what turned out to be traffickers. He has been in the MC for a long time and as a favor. He rescues her from the traffickers, not realizing it’s gonna change his life. They have a huge age gap, but that doesn’t seem to matter. Their chemistry is undeniable and off the charts. But it isn’t just their chemistry. The author has written a deep connection for these two that is enviable. I’m not sure if it is because of their May December romance, but they just seemed to have a soulfully deep connection and you feel it in the authors description. Their chemistry definitely gets spicy and steamy, but it is that obsessive love that they seem to have for each other that really draws you into the story. I have read plenty of romance books, but very few of them describe it so well. Maybe it’s because you know he’s this big alpha that has made difficult choices through his life some which have brought him regrets and she is his redemption. Maybe it’s because she never felt wanted or connected and with him she found that deep home that isn’t a place but something that’s inside of your soul.. whatever it is it’s done well. They of course get their HEA, and the glimpse into the future, but I honestly didn’t want this story to end.

There isn't a book written by this author that I don't want to devour the second it's available. Hayley Faiman is a bomb and super versatile because there is not a genre in which she won't be brilliant. Have you read any of her books? If you don't, I advise you to do so. Filthy Devil is her latest release and it's the book from the Dark Horse MC novel. Have you read any books from this series? I really advise you to do so because despite all books are standalones, some events are interconnected. It's going to be one hell of a ride, trust me. This book explores the lives of Nash and James. Nash is old school. He's been a part of the Dark Horse MC, but retired from the main chapter and moved away to open his own branch. When he's asked to help protect one girl... James' life has been a mess and not easy since she can remember. When she's given a contract to sign she can't imagine the huge mistake she made until she is saved by a huge man and... Dayum, what a book this was. What a ride. The story progressed in a way that left me wanting more and more. There were parts of the story that I really wanted to strangle someone... Jesus, let's talk about stubborn people. Why can't you see what's right in front of you? The characters worked perfectly with each other, and despite the age difference, they were perfect. I love a book that can take me out of my mind. Live a book that can take us out of our comfort zone. And dayum, the hot scenes were out of this world. It's sad that this series is over, but it was the perfect ending. Loved it, Hayley, just like I knew I would.
Enjoyable end to the series I am not usually a fan of the extreme age gap trope but Hayley Faiman wrote it beautifully and tastefully. She bridgded the age gap between Nash and James making it believable and not cringey. I definitely understood the insta lust. Their chemistry and attraction was very electrifying as soon as they met.
I always liked Nash in the previous books and I loved how he accepted his age and the age gap between him and James. He knew his limitations but didn't let that stop him from going after what he wanted which was her. I could see why James was attracted to Nash, he was such a hot zaddy! Nash was totally swoony, I thoroughly enjoyed his protectiveness and possessiveness for James and his love and devotion for King and his family was so heartwarming. And man oh man was he hot and steamy.
There were moments where I didn't really like James, her insecurity was a bit repetitive and much at times. This was shocking since there were moments when she fierceness peaked through. I liked that she loved and appreciated Nash and wanted to protect him against her bad decisions.
This book was fast paced and filled with a lot of drama. It also brought closure to the issue with the Southern Mafia and it was a fitting end to the series.
Nashville meets James when he pulls over a s€x traffick1ng trailer that was moving across the state of Texas, where she signed the contract to do so. He's on a mission to pick her up directly due to his loyalty that his club has to her biological parents. Nash is 56 years old, and James is 20, so there is a huge 36-year age gap, and Nash attempts to give her protection of the club without falling for her. James has lost her identity as she was raised by her overbearing grandparents who pretended to be her real father and mother.
James seems to fall for Nash due to close proximity when he designated himself as her direct protector. Nash is getting up in age and tired of being the president of an MC as he is missing out on his son and grandkids. Both James and Nash fall for each other, and it takes a bit before they are truly committed due to the stereotypes and safety issues with the mafia she was involved with. I really enjoyed this love story and the flow of it. The smeggsy is spicy, but Nash is not as spry as he used to be. James is going to keep him young, though.
Thank you, author, for the ARC! Release Date: November 6, 2024
I received a copy of this book from the publisher/author to review for Stephanie's Book Reports.
If you love a great age gap story then you do not want to miss this story. This is the story of Nash and James. There is a large age gap of thirty years in this book. But you would never know it in you hadn't been told. If you have read the previous books in this series you have met Nash. I really loved James and I thought they were perfect for each other. It is so easy to see why James was attracted to Nash. He knows what he wants and he isn't afraid to go for it. He is super protective and possessive. He also makes for one hot and steamy book boyfriend. James has really been though more than any twenty year old should be through. But now that she is where she is suppose to be she is a little lost. Her grandparents have raised her and they were super overbearing and actually pretended to be her mother and father. There is a lot going on in this story that you need to discover for yourself.I loved watching the big bad MC President fall for a girl who rocks his world in more ways than one.
All the dang stars for this book! I absolutely love how these stories contain it all... you get the great kind of quick lust, smut and spice galore but you get great stories and characters who have depth too.
I'm alllill for smut and spice but I need to find some connection to the characters. Hayley has a way of creating these worlds that have it all. You get the alpha and possessive morally grey men who take care of their women but you also get to know the characters as well. You dive into their world and want to know their story. I absolutely loved this age gap story and highly recommend it! James, the FMC was such a like-able character and Nash was just too good.
I knew his story would be great and it did not disappoint. It's time for me to add previous books by @hayleyfaiman to my TBR and I can't wait for more in the future!!! I'm a huge fan!
What to expect: Alpha Male • Motorcycle Club Touch her and die 36 Year Age Gap Forbidden Grumpy-Sunshine He Falls First
Hayley Faiman is back with a bang. Filthy Devil is the sixth book from her Dark Horse MC series, if you love an age gap romance filled with lots of steamy naughtiness and a good dose of action then this one’s for you. I honestly wasn’t sure whether or not we’d be getting a book for Nash himself, but here we are and it’s a good one.
The story focuses on Nash and James, she’s the daughter of a deceased former club girl who betrayed the MC and was killed as a result, one of her last wishes so to speak was that the MC protect her daughter. James happens to be much, much younger than Nash but the chemistry between them is amazing as is the steam, in all honesty you wouldn’t even know there’s such a big age difference between them, these two were made for one another.
Filthy Devil is an action packed, fast paced read. Lots of danger and violence along with some spicy naughtiness go towards making this book a well deserved five star read. I look forward to seeing what’s next from this author.
This is the 6th book in the Dark Horse MC series featuring Nash and James's deliciously HOT and steamy fast-paced age-gap, alpha-male, action-packed, MC romance. James is the daughter of a former club girl who betrayed the MC and she payed for her betrayal with her life. One of her last requests was that the MC protect her daughter. After she was kicked by her parents James felt like she had no options or choices and she ended up signing her life away to who turn out to be human traffickers. Nash is no longer the President of the MC but everyone knows he is the MC and as a favor he goes to rescue James from the Southern Mafia. Nash and James have instant red HOT chemistry despite the 36yr age difference between them and Nash is very protective of James. I don't want to say anymore and ruin it for anyone else with spoilers. You really need to read this deliciously HOT and steamy fast-paced age-gap, alpha-male, action-packed, MC romance to see what happens. I would recommend reading this book.

Filthy Devil is the sixth story in the Dark Horse MC which is quite suspenseful and a page-turning MC romance story. When I first read the blurb for Filthy Devil, I knew immediately that I had to read this book to see what was going to happen between the fabulous main characters. Filthy Devil is the amazing journey of James and Nash whom I fell in love with right from the beginning of reading this amazing MC romance book. While reading Filthy Devil, this book captured my attention from beginning to end. In my absolute honest opinion, Filthy Devil is a fantastic addition to the MC romance genre. Author Hayley Faiman has written a remarkable MC romance book. I believe that she’s an astonishing storyteller and a marvelous writer who puts everything into the books she writes for her readers entertainment. I would absolutely love to recommend this MC romance to anyone whose looking for a wonderful MC romance to read. I’m looking forward to reading more amazing books by this fabulous author.

🖤Alpha Male 🏍️Motorcycle Club 🖤Touch her and 💀 🏍️36 Year Age Gap 🖤Forbidden 🏍️Grumpy-Sunshine 🖤He Falls First
Whew! This age gap mc romance was hot, hot, hot!
Nash has been so elusive to me this whole series and I’m so glad he got his story told! I absolutely loved he and James together! Despite her young age she was really so mature and I liked her right away. She’s definitely been handed a lot in her young life but despite that she was still so sweet and loving. Just the one Nash needs in his life.
Nash was the perfect MC MMC. Possessive and just what young James needs in her life. She needs someone to protect and guide her, all while loving her forever and Nash is that man. As with the other books in the series, the spice in this book was so steaming hot. Perfection!!
I’m sad to see this series end but so excited for where Hayley takes us next!!
Thank you to Hayley Faiman and Wordsmith Publicity for the ARC of this book.
What an ending to this series! This installment with this MC focuses on Nashville, the father of one of the current MC guys who is still involved yet somewhat removed from the MC at this point. All that changes when he meets James, who is one of the club girls’ children being raised by her grandparents that she thought were her actual parents and ends up signing her life to be trafficked in an attempt to get away. Nash rescues her, and in the process, can’t stop thinking about her which causes him to keep her for himself rather than the original plan for her. James isn’t the typical young girl that everyone believes she is, and she’s quite the spitfire when it comes to her relationship and feelings towards Nash. They complement each other perfectly, and it was a great read combined with the never ending drama that has followed the MC throughout the entire series. I voluntarily read and reviewed an Advance Reader Copy of this book.
So so good! I have read all of the other novels in this series and loved them. This novel did not disappoint. I love a good age gap story and this novel just checked so many boxes for me. I was excited to jump back into this series. From the first chapter this novel sucked me in and held on tight. It was so so good! I loved Nash and James's story. I loved Nash, I loved how he was so comfortable in his own skin and who he was. I loved their chemistry. It was so good! I loved watching them fall in love despite the challenges around them. Once I started reading I could not put this novel down. Even if it meant staying up most of the night reading. I needed to know what was happening next. So worth losing sleep over. I can hardly wait to see what this author has coming next. So so good!
James is running with a whole lot if secrets she finally knows who her parents are and it's all messed up so she signs her life away a contract that gets her in the back of a semi headed to nowhere until he showed up Nashville prez of the Dark Horse MC. Nash is just fulfilling a promise he's too old for some 20 something that's what he tells himself but he's willing to kill for her already and she's just a temptation what happens when they both give in. This book has a big age gap and I was worried that it would bother me more but the author blended there romance together really well and you only see the difference in age when it's brought up there perfectly matched. This book has some danger a little drama but never any cheating and the epilogue tied everything up.
I was allowed to read and advance copy of this book via Booksprout and this is my honest review.
James hat einen Vertrag geschlossen den sie bereut. Doch dann kommt ihr Nash zur Hilfe und sofort ist die Anziehung da. Doch Nash ist deutlich älter als James. Älter als ihr Vater. Doch keinen von beiden stört es. Aber dann wollen James’ Vertragspartner, dass der Vertrag erfüllt ist, aber Nash ist nicht bereit James aufzugeben.
Ich habe ehrlich gesagt überhaupt kein Problem mit dem Trope Age Gap. Meistens rückt das Thema bei mir beim Lesen ohnehin in den Hintergrund und nur wenn es in der Geschichte dann irgendwie angesprochen oder thematisiert wird merke ich “ach ja da war ja was”. 😂 Nash kennt man bereits aus den anderen Büchern und ich war so unglaublich gespannt auf seine Geschichte, weil ganz ehrlich: so ein bisschen verknallt hat man sich ja schon in den guten alten Nash. Nash, der hart sein kann wenn es um den MC geht, der mit Herzblut dabei ist, der aber auch eine weiche Seite hat - vor allem wenn es um die Familie geht. Und Filthy Devil hat das nur unterstrichen. James war der perfekte Gegencharakter dazu: jung, noch total in der Selbstfindungsphase, aber schon am Wissen was sie eigentlich nicht will und dazu keck und frech und manchmal vorlauter als ihr gut tut. 😅 Eine geniale Mischung was die Liebesgeschichte angeht und das gepaart mit Spannung, Action und einem krönenden Abschluss für diese Reihe.
4/5 ⭐️ und eine klare Empfehlung der ganzen Reihe für alle Freunde von Biker Romance. ❤️
And Nash and James are proof of that! Readers get ready for some intense passion, dangerous enemies and loyal family to show up and be a part of the story that brings Nash and James together. He is a strong, original member of the Dark Horse MC, so to see him discover what he could have with a woman younger than him, that he never saw coming, brings a new side of Nash to the forefront and readers are bound to fall in love with him! James has lived a life that is part sheltered, part isolated and though her naivety at times is obvious, she also has an old soul that matches with Nash’s just right. Another Dark Horse MC couple that readers can fall in love with!
James messes up, signing her life away to the Southern Mafia after finding out her parents are actually her grandparents and her sister was her biological mother. She is rescued by Nash Stanley, as she is considered under the protection of the Dark Horse MC.
I liked this latest installment of the series. Nash falls for James from the start, but tries to distance himself from her due to their big age difference. James realizes that she doesn't care about the age gap, she only feels secure and cared for when she is with Nash. They both try to do what they have to do to keep each other safe. Expect action, danger, plenty of steam and a HEA.

James is rescued from being trafficked by Nash and Dark Horse MC as a last favor for her mother/sister. He had no intention of getting tied down at his age (older than her bio parents), but is constantly drawn to James. His not wanting to permanently commit definitely hurts her because she wants it pretty quickly. He is trying to be realistic about the age gap, but she makes that hard. He lets her lie to herself about it sometimes. I like how thoroughly Nash plans ahead. I hated her running away. There is still ongoing drama with the Southern Mafia, but it is different than before. I am so happy Nash found someone.

I knew I would enjoy this book, it's a Hayley Faiman MC it was a no brainer! But I didn't know how much I would LOVE it! We met Nash in the last book and I had a bit of a grumpy old man pictured. HE IS NOT!! I loved their story so much. I felt so bad for James our heroine she was so lost. Her parents really did a number on her and she was so insecure, so afraid to trust. Oh ou hero fell, he fought it, lied to himself but fell hard. She fell head over heels and all of it was so cute to see play out. But don't even think it was a sugar sweet romance. IT'S AN MC!! A bit dark at times and a lot dirty.
Vixen wanted the Dark Horse MC to get her daughter out of the mess with the Southern Mafia, Nash springs James from the trailer that was taking her to be trafficked. There is something about James that calls to Nash, even though she is younger than his boys. He is supposed to protect her but leave her alone, that becomes impossible, he wants to claim her as his old lady.
While this can be read as a standalone, it is better to read them in order to the overarching story. Nash has always put his club first but as he gets older he is starting to think he has not always made the correct choice.
Nash and James were everything I was hoping they would be! We have seen Nash off and on in this series and I was hoping the man got a book and I was so glad he got someone as amazing as James. She was a spitfire and the perfect match for him. The drama in the book had my heart pounding and while I was shocked with the resolutions, I’m kinda hoping that means we might get a series about certain people….. maybe!? Either way, this book was the perfect ending to this MC series. While I’m sad that it’s over; I know for a fact I will reread it in the future. The women were all strong amazing women and the heros were great.
I couldn't put it down. My oh my! I loved everything thing about Nash. I definitely needed Nash in my life. James was everything I needed in a FMC. I love her, at times it was a little annoying with not knowing herself worth,but it had to be that way for the story and I understand stand it. I just thought she might have express it a few times to many. With that being said I still loved the story. The action was good and the plot was good. I liked the happily ever after. The spice was good. I enjoyed this book very much.

A Must-Read for MC Lovers... I love age-gap romance books, and this is one of the best. There's a blend of romance, suspense, and raw emotions. It's set in the Dark Horse MC world. The main character, James Bishop, has made a serious mistake when she signs on the dotted line. She can thank her lucky stars for Nashville Stanley. He's older but who doesn't love an older man who also happens to be part of an MC? Hayley Faiman's writing is vividly descriptive and delivers a gripping, intense ride from start to finish. Filthy Devil is a must-read for MC lovers.
Perfect ending for this series! I couldn't wait to get Nash's story, and it was a good one. I knew under his hard exterior there was a little softness. I am not a huge fan of age gaps, especially a HUGE one, but Hayley Faiman made me believe in this one. It was spicy, there was angst and all the fighting you'd expect when the Southern Mafia continues to mess with Dark Horse MC. I enjoyed seeing James fit into the Dark Horse mold and was happy to see Nash where he belongs. Sad to say goodbye to the Dark Horse MC.
"He knows he’s too old for her. She knows she’s too young for him. They will never work."
Filthy Devil is a FANTASTIC, deliciously filthy gap story that brings us James and Nash. This couple is explosive! The chemistry between them is palpable and the dynamics between them is intense. I love watching these characters evolve but even more so Nash because he had it in his head it couldn't be. From start to finish Filthy Devil is perfection!
