Jack
◆ Viking Warriors MC - Fighting for the Innocent ◆
"They came for me. They should have never touched her. I'll find them, and I'll never fail her again." Jack McLeod.
Jack McLeod returns home to take his place as future President of his family's club. The Viking Warriors MC are legendary. A man should think twice about crossing them. They definitely should think five times before crossing Jack. Family means something different to the McLeods. They fight for every member and every brother. They've taken on a secret mission to fight for the innocent. They'll go even further for the women they love.
Enemies rise. They can be old ones hiding in the night. Enemies come. They may miss their target, but it doesn't mean they miss. Sadly for them, they involved the woman Jack swore to protect the most. Enemies fall. He'll find them. He'll find them all. Fear is real. So is the ghost sliding through the shadows.
Lily Harman is running from her own nightmare. A nightmare that shouldn't exist. She was thrown on this journey as a last resort to save her life. Of all the things she imagined along the way, landing herself in the middle of a motorcycle club wasn't one of them. She didn't plan this. She wasn't prepared for any of it. Nor was she prepared for her new protector.
Will he save her from her nightmare? Can he save her from his own?

What an amazing start to the series!
I can’t say just how much this story means to me, I can’t give my full personal review here, I will gladly tell it but maybe on other platforms.
What I can say is that this book, this story is every bit worth the read! Before I say anything else, I have to say it’s important to express that DV is not something you should mess around with, it’s not something that everyone makes it out of. There are a lot of books about DV, and some popular ones do show how serious it can be but I’ve yet to see one that shows just how dark it can get, how my family knows all too well how dark it can become and how life changing it can be for the worst.
Please read this story with caution and read the trigger warnings! It’s not an easy read but it is still a really good read! I found myself relating a lot to Jack and his grief…
This story shows you can still find love in the mist of your darkness moments.
I can’t wait to see what the rest of the series holds!

A Righteous Read
This is a most relatable read that packs a serious punch. The target audience might be survivors of domestic violence, and those sworn to protect them, but this book is a necessary read across the board.
Lily's story is well constructed and feels true. The contrast with the survivors still trapped is a stark reminder in these fraught times.
The characters are brilliantly created and nuanced. The plot is driven.
I highly recommend this one.

Her best yet.
I am in love with this new series already. Besides a vampire bikey story, this is my only bikey romance I've read, and it was brilliant. Well written characters, perfectly written to create a heart wrenching, beautiful story with a perfect happily ever after. Looking forward to the next in the series.

this book was done so perfectly. the way the author poured her emotions and sweat into this. i couldn't have asked for a better book. the trauma in this book is real and its heavy but the outcome of it was beautiful and amazing. i honestly didnt even notice that it was a clean romance. it wasn't lacking in any way. highly recommend this beautiful story but check the warnings cuz the trauma is there.

Where do I find a Jack?
Great story and characters! Absolutely love Jack, he reminds me of Jax from Sons of Anarchry, dark but capable of so much more!

Debbie Hyde's book is a testament to her dedication, as she has poured her heart and soul into the writing, making it relatable and impactful, especially for survivors of domestic violence like myself. The story of Lily's escape is powerful, and the contrast with those who are not so fortunate serves as a sobering reminder. With suspense, action, and a cast of sexy bikers, this book has all the ingredients of a great story, making it a truly compelling read that I highly recommend to everyone.

Jack: Viking Warrior's MC Book 1
This book hit me in the feels right from the start. The way Debbie tells Lily and Jack's story grabs you and doesn't let go. It's truly an amazing read.
My advice...get the book...fall in love with them but...read the trigger warnings. Don't into this book blind because there is darkness too.
Thank you Debbie and I can't wait for the next book.

Great story of Lily and Jack. With a chance meeting, who would of thought Love at First Sight could happen - but ask Jack as this is his story to tell. Looking forward to reading more of this series and more of Debbie Hyde's books. Got me hooked!!!!

A very personal mission
Ms. Hyde has tackled a very difficult subject. Her characters are genuine and relatable. She has taken a very personal tragedy and found a way to bring a subject that is often swept into the shadows out into the light. Domestic abuse is not a form of entertainment, and it is not presented as such. This story provides hope in a desperate situation and also has contact information for those in need.
Ms. Hyde’s dedication in the front of the book brought me to tears. The story told in Jack has parts of her real-life experience of losing her daughter and unborn granddaughter. She has masterfully shared enough for us to know it was truly horrible without making the whole story about Kacy (her daughter) and Angel (her granddaughter).
If you are in a dangerous situation like domestic abuse, there is help available. Please reach out.
I look forward to the next installment in this story, just like I do all of her series.

The background story for our FMC Lily, will resonate with some readers, so check the triggers.
Her journey takes her across states until she ends up in a MC compound, it’s her decision in where she wants to go but she chooses to stay. There is a sense of belonging between her and Jack, the son of the prez who will eventually take over. There is a little back n forth between the two and everyone are very understandable and sympathetic of her predicament. Unfortunately, she can’t out run her past and it catches up to her in a violent way.
First, in the series and I liked the back story for her, it was very well written. I enjoyed her little bits of spark then back to being meek again due to past influences.

Awesome!
What a great read, I didn't want to put it down. I love that it's not just a romance book but there is suspense, action, and of course love comes. It's a great clean read! A must read! Will warn it may trigger some who have experienced abuse but it can also be healing as there is so much hope packed in here too. Ladies if you're in an abusive relationship- make a plan and stay safe. - get out. Men this goes for you as well for there are men who are abused too.
I can not wait for book 2! Happy reading!

One Helluva Ride
This novel was a guy punch. Full of meat, deep characters, and a plot that don't quit. This story, if based on reality, is heart shattering and earth shattering. Definitely my kind of read.

Amazing and breathtaking!
This was such a beautiful story with an important message. I personally believe this is Debbie Hyde's best work. I felt for every step of Lily's journey and was completely invested in the cause. I need more on Nina. If you know, you know. Highly recommend but make sure you read the trigger warnings.

This was a wonderfully written story about one family's journey to give hope and a voice to victims of domestic violence and show that even when your entire world is shattered beyond repair you can still find a way to help others and show them that they are more than victims and they can have a happy ending

Lily and Jack. Lily is running for her life. Jack and his MC are there to help. Jack shows us what happens when you abuse a woman. Lord forbid you abuse his. Lily and Jack's story is why we would should keep our eyes and hearts open. Even if you want to close it up for good.
The Viking Warriors MC are Angels on wheels. The suspense of what is going to happen. The strength that these Warriors show. The selfless way the Warriors help those in need make you greatful they are on the right side of this fight.
That was hard. The author brought to the page a truth that hurts. Domestic violence is out there. You might not be able to save everyone, but you will be able to save some. All you have to do is understand it exists, and let that person know you are there for them.

First off, I barely got past the dedication. I was ugly crying before I ever made it to chapter one. It is very imperative that you read the trigger warnings for this book. The author even reminds you when you get to chapter one. Now on to the book. This book will pull at your heart and may even break it but you will be put back together with maybe a few pieces missing but thats ok because its ok to be perfectly imperfect. The moment Jack met Lily he was immediately protective of her. The things Jack and his family went through was heartbreaking. Jack's friend Coty is his ride or die and I absolutely loved it and can't wait to read his story. This book was very well written and flowed so perfectly that you was never thinking "omg how much more do I have left." We've all thought that so don't deny it. *insert wink* If you like MC romance books with a strong crew backing them up then give this book a read but remember CHECK TRIGGER WARNINGS FIRST. Your mental health is very important. I know this story was hard to write and I could not imagination going through what you did. Thank you for writing this book and shedding light on a very difficult subject. I'm glad you got your daughters story out even though it was difficult. I absolutely loved this book and it will stay with me forever. If you read thus story I hope you enjoy it as much as i did. Happy Reading Everyone!

I honestly don’t know where to start. This isn’t a genre that I normally read, but I am so glad that I read it. It is such am important topic, and was done in a respectful way. No explicit sexual scenes or bad words. This author has won my respect. And the fact that this story is her and her daughter’s story. And as heartbreaking as it is, she chose to share part of it with us. Domestic abuse is real and it is often deadly. Lily knows what it is like. She sees it in the ER where she is a nurse, but she also lives it. Now she has her chance to get out . A well respected motorcycle club has a secret organization called Ariel’s Angels, who rescues abused women and helps them start over. But the abuser has authority and money, and he isn’t used to losing. He is just as determined to get to Lily as Jack and his family is determined to save her. I definitely recommend this book. Ariel’s story is actually Kacy’s story, and the author’s story. A story that no one should have to go through

I have read plenty of books by Debbie Hyde, her Hayden Fall series, The Dawson boys , and For the Love of A Shaw series which I have enjoyed more than this book. I always gave her books 4 or 5 stars. This book didn’t click with me. Felt more like a rough draft. I felt like we were 50 plus more pages in before the 2 main characters even met. Then it was kind of instant love which didn’t feel true to the story. Lily are main character had been living with her abusive boyfriend over a year and escapes then rebounds to quickly. Didn’t feel like a romance. Just not my cup of tea. I’m sure other readers will love it. I’ve been patiently waiting for the next Dawsons book which was supposed to come out over 2 years ago.
July 11, 2025
I enjoyed the Motorcycle Club and action parts of this book, but the romance part of it felt like a secondary part of the story. The ARC about the MC helping rescue women was great- I love that idea of people that society always deems as bad (and yeah, OK, they do some stuff outside the law) but this particular group is all about family and using their own tragedy to help others, sometimes doing the things that police and other entities can't do.
I was expecting some spice between the FMC and MMC, and some more connection and banter between them. I would have just liked to see their relationship flushed out more, more growth than her being a woman they rescued to, boom, she's his ol' lady.

this is my first book from Debbie. iam used to a lot of smut, but tbh this book didn't need it. The storyline was so captivating. I love how the storyline was based on dv as I feel dv isn't spoken enough, especially people being saved from it. I loved how the vikings set up a group in memory of their family member who also went through dv, so they were honouring their family member by helping others. I really enjoyed this. im hoping there will be a storyline for finley and maybe Jay if there is a thing who knows. and I'd love to know why kayla is so funny with coty, so I can't wait to read cotys book. There is no smut or anything, but such an amazing storyline
May 13, 2025
I loved this book. The writing pulled you in from the start and kept me hooked until the last page.
I appreciated that it took a few chapters before the main characters met because those chapters gave us necessary background information about the h and H.
Character development was well done. Yes the storyline is heavy yet done so well that I didn’t feel overwhelmed by. I do recommend you review the Trigger Warnings before you dive in due to topics discussed throughout the book.
I look forward to Cory’s and Kayla’s book next

This story touched my heart. I am so glad Ms. Hyde found the strength to share even part of her daughter's story. I know this had to be a really excruciating thing, for her to do. I hope it helps her heal a little more. Giving these women struggling in an abusive relationship hope that they can survive too. I really liked she made it part of an MC. i really am looking forward to reading more in this series. I really liked Jack and Lily's story. So much so that i binged it and Coty's Story. These stories are a must read!!!

Chistu rumanzu fu cumpostu accussì brillantimenti ca si putìa pirdunari pi cridiri ca era basatu ntâ virità. La storia è traumàtica, quasi na telenovela, ma chistu duna lu fascinu.
Chista è na littura cumplessa, ntâ stissa manera di Gugghiermu Queen o Ben Rose. La fini fu la pirfizzioni.
Aspittu cu entusiasmu di lèggiri cchiù òpiri di chista signura.

It has potential, I just felt it lacking. There really wasn't any chemistry between the main characters, but there could have been. It just wasn't developed properly. It did develop my interest in the other characters. I will read the next book.
After reading 2nd book, it was pretty much the same. This is more about domestic violence than an mc. No chemistry between main characters and they never real give details. I won't continue series after this.

Amazing read
You could feel every emotion put into this... from the heart-wrenching beginning to love at the end.
I hope this story raises more awareness and for the survivors... remember you are not alone.

Let me just start by saying that the dedication in the front of the book almost made me cry! To know that this novel is based on Ms.Debbies real life experiences is heart wrenching. Although this story had me on an emotional roller coaster ride the characters were realistic, the plot was powerful, and the world building was top notch! Ms. Debbie was able to bring awareness to Domestic Violence in a tasteful manner and provide resources for those who may need help in the back of her book as well. I can’t wait to read the next book in this series!
