Er hat viele Namen – aber im Kings of Retribution MC nennen sie ihn Kiwi, ihren kompromisslosen Road Captain und unerschütterlichen Clubbruder. Als junger Mann verließ Kiwi Neuseeland, um in Las Vegas nach seinem leiblichen Vater zu suchen – und fand sich mitten im Sumpf der Unterwelt von Sin City wieder. Der Moment, als er einem Fremden namens Riggs vertraute, änderte alles und führte ihn direkt in die Arme des MC, aus dem er nie wieder entkommen wollte.
Doch dann kehrt Piper LeBlanc nach Hause zurück. Die Tochter des Club-Enforcers ist längst nicht mehr das Mädchen von früher – sie ist eine selbstbewusste, atemberaubend heiße Frau, die eine gefährliche Anziehungskraft auf Kiwi ausübt. Kiwi weiß, dass sie verboten ist. Sie ist zu jung, die Tochter seines Clubbruders und somit vollkommen tabu. Aber die hitzige Leidenschaft zwischen ihnen ist unvermeidlich – und Kiwi wird alles riskieren, um sie zu erobern.
Piper kennt das raue, gefährliche Leben der Biker nur zu gut. Aufgewachsen mit einem alleinerziehenden Vater, hatte sie nie etwas anderes gewollt – bis ihre Mutter, die als Old Lady eines anderen MC-Präsidenten zurückkehrt, wieder in ihr Leben tritt. Piper ist hin- und hergerissen zwischen dem Hass auf die Frau, die sie vor vielen Jahren verlassen hat, und der Sehnsucht nach der Mutter, die sie nie hatte.
Als Piper nach einem Jahr College nach Hause zurückkehrt, ist sie nicht nur äußerlich verändert – auch Kiwi sieht sie plötzlich mit völlig anderen Augen. Der Blick, den er ihr zuwirft, lässt ihr Herz heftig schlagen. Sie sollte sich fernhalten, doch die Anziehungskraft zwischen ihnen wird immer stärker, bis sie nicht mehr zu leugnen ist.
Was als verbotene Leidenschaft beginnt, wird schnell zu einem gefährlichen Spiel ums Überleben. Als Piper plötzlich spurlos verschwindet, ist der Kings of Retribution MC entschlossen, Vergeltung zu üben. In einem Wettlauf gegen die Zeit kämpft Kiwi nicht nur um Rache, sondern auch darum, Piper lebendig und heil zurückzubringen – koste es, was es wolle.
Teil 15 der packenden und heißen Kings of Retribution MC-Serie der USA Today-Bestsellerautorinnen Crystal Daniels und Sandy Alvarez – voller Action, Leidenschaft und Gefahren!
I have been anxiously waiting for Kiwi's release since I realized Piper was going to be his love interest and believe me it didn't disappoint. I loved this book from beginning to end, although I wanted more. Kiwi has known Piper since she was a little girl, but when she's around 17 something starts to change. Kiwi knows not to go there since she is his brother's daughter and the niece of the President. Unfortunately for him when Piper comes home from College all bets are off. I loved how he wanted to stay away from her but found it harder to do and when Piper is taken he can no longer live without her. Piper has been a bright light in this series since it began, she is beautiful inside and out. Her relationship with Nova still brings tears to my eyes. She is sassy but so sweet you can't help but love her and she was willing to risk it all to be with Kiwi. I can't wait to find out who is up next.
Kiwi was the fourth book in the Kings of Retribution MC Louisiana by the authors Crystal Daniels and Sandy Alvarez.
We’ve read about Piper, Nova’s daughter, since book one when she was still a teenager in High School. She was beautiful, sassy and everything that you would expect when raised by a single father and a family of MC uncles, all of whom are alpha and over the top protective. She was fabulous, independent and lived with no filter.
We also met Kiwi throughout the series as a loyal brother and MC Enforcer. Through Kiwi, the authors brought us his back storyline caught us up on the beginning of the attraction, which began once Piper graduated and started growing up.
The storyline was entertaining, action packed and fun. It was another successful story for the series and the authors also teased us with other potential spin offs. There are several directions for the authors and I hope eventually they’ll explore them all.
Tai "Kiwi" Cooper has been a part of Piper LeBlanc's life since he joined the Kings of Retribution MC, Louisiana Chapter. Piper is the daughter of the MC's Enforcer, Nova, she grew up from a young girl to a beautiful woman and it has caused Kiwi to notice, Piper is off limits though no matter how deeply Kiwi feels for her. Piper realizes it will never be which is why she decided to leave for college, now she is back but it doesn't stop her heart wanting who it wants.
A year later Piper is back and Kiwi is doing his best to keep her at a distance, but it is near impossible. Is there any possible way that Kiwi and Piper can be together without destroying the relationships Kiwi has with the club or are they destined to be apart.
This exceeded all my expectations. Kiwi was so much more then what was hinted at in the previous books. I picked this up last night and did not put down until finished. I loved Piper as well, she is a remarkable young woman who has such a good head on her shoulders and yet she has the weight of the world on her shoulders. You can feel the emotions swirling between Kiwi and Piper, I was so thrilled with how the story played out and it surprised me at every turn. Excellent and I would say best of the four books so far.
I struggled for a few days in writing this review. I was so excited for Kiwi and Piper to ge their story. There’s a lot of push pull and very well into the story before they finally come together. Lots of action and drama. This is a great story about the power of family. It’s a great edition to the series, just to much push pull for me on the romance side.
This is Kiwi and Piper's story and we thought it was super cute and a great addition to the series. We loved getting a bit of a back story and an insight into Kiwi's life. Nova being Piper's father we already know how overprotective he is we knew he wasn't going to take the news that his daughter hooked up with one of his brothers. They make a cute couple even Gampy agrees.
This was a fun read there was push and pull between its characters, flirtation witty banter, and how jealous Kiwi got when Piper was around other men some of his actions were pretty funny. We love the chemistry between this couple and the easiness of it all once they decided to give in to their feelings. It was great to see Piper so happy and resolve uncertainties in her life.
Overall this was a great read with a few surprises and heart-pounding moments. It was great to see tons of our favorite characters stop by from the Montana chapter and grace the pages seeing them all again even Easton. It was perfect timing as one of their own was in trouble.
Overall we loved it as we had a permanent smile as we read this one.
This story was easy to read, entertaining, unpredictable, packed with action, and had some good steamy scenes. This book may be the most anticipated in the series, and it did not disappoint. Kiwi will have you swooning hard!!
Kiwi is loyal to the core. When it came to Piper he was conflicted about his feelings and acting on them, which was hard because he's definitely a take charge alpha male. He's protective of the people he loves and doesn't want to hurt or disappoint anyone. He's a natural caregiver, not only to the people he cares about, but to animals too. I think that's what made me love him so much.
Piper grew up in the MC so she knows the ins and outs of the life and is extremely mature for her age. She's book smart as well as street smart, which most girls her age don't have a mixture of. She's strong, mentally and physically. After going off to college for a year she's really grown into her own and realized what she wants out of life.
I thought they were a sweet couple and like all the other books in the Kings of Retribution, I didn't want it to end. It's pretty obvious in this book that there is more to come in this series and possibly even a book or two in the OG Montana chapter. I can't wait, keep'em coming ladies!!
This is Kiwi's "Tia Cooper" and Piper's book. Kiwi was born and raised by his mother and step father but his step father was the man he looked up to. When he turns 18 he decided to come to the States to find and meet his birth father. He unknowingly becomes part of a crime. When he finds out by meeting the club he gets out of it and the club helps him.
Piper is the daughter of the Enforcer for the club. She grew up with just her Dad and the club. After high school she leaves and goes to college out of state just to get away and try to figure out what she wants.
Good story and I enjoyed it but something about the writing bugged me and can't quite put my finger on it.
I usually enjoy reading all books from this author, but this book had me beyond annoyed. The ending had a buildup and then it abruptly ended and skipped to the epilogue. The story could have continued and rather than trying to shock us and then get lazy at the end. It really was an enjoyable book until then. There were also a few details that were lost such as the foot being hurt - won’t give any spoilers- and then nothing afterwards. I was very confused on what was going on with all the smaller details.
Kiwi and piper are so amazing together. This story was one of which i have been so excited for and so happy with the way it ended for sure. After all the crazy drama will they get there HEA. i recommend this whole series 100% with 100+ ⭐️
What a ride. I love Kiwi and Piper. This book is action packed and on more than one occasion I caught myself holding my breath. This is an amazing series and I can't wait to see what happens next!
I feel like we saw glimpses of this in the last book. But with this one Piper is more grown up, she's been away at college, there was time apart and both of them are fighting their feelings so hard. I felt bad for Piper, Kiwi kept going hot and cold on her, giving her whiplash. But when he made his move, he did so in a big way and you had to admire him that he brought the new relationship out to the club the very next morning, despite knowing what he was in store for. While it took these 2 a bit to get where they did, things ended up good for them. I was nice to see them finally happy at the end.
3.7 stars. This was good. It had everything I enjoyed about the other books. Danger, steam, and a heaping dose of possessive love. It’s so good to finally see everyone get their HEA.
I just kind of wanted more. The ending was sweet but I wanna know more about what’s goin on in everyone’s lives. Plus the ending of the chapter before the epilogue was just the absolute fucking worst. My heart about froze in my damn chest.
I’m really glad I finished the series. I just sort of think the ending was a tiny bit anticlimactic.
This is the 4th book in this amazing and what an emotional roller coaster journey this story is throughout. I was completely enthralled throughout this riveting and addictive page turner and I cannot wait to read more from these talented authors. I highly recommend their work for all MC lovers.
Kiwi (Tai) and Piper’s story was good! I enjoyed it! It definitely was a little weird that he knew her since she was younger but they didn’t bring it up that much and it isn’t like she ever called him Uncle or anything like that. I thought it was really sweet that he wanted her so badly that he was willing to be outed from the MC to be with her.
Well hot dauumm I love me some Kiwi and Piper what a fierce, unbreakable and undeniable chemistry they share. These two wonderful authors know how to draw you into the lives of their characters and makes you believe they are real. You feel like you know them you are invested in their lives and what happens. This is book four in the Louisiana Chapter of The Kings of Retribution MC series. We have seen Piper grow up as the the daughter of Nova the Enforcer of the MC and niece of Riggs the president. She has a tight bond with her father since he's the only parent she has ever known until recently. Kiwi (Tai) has been apart of the MC for years and has watched Piper grow from a child to young beautiful woman. We have watched him become increasingly protective of her as she has grown up. He knows she is off limits to him because of who her dad is. He has tried to deny his feelings, even push her away when he really wanted to hold her. Then the unthinkable happens and all bets are off. She goes missing and his worst fears come back to haunt him. He will do anything to save her to claim her even die for her if that's what it takes. Their story has action, suspense,danger, heartbreak, angst, drama, passion, friendships, humor, family and love. Plus we get to see the gang from Montana what a bonus. I absolutely loved Kiwi and Piper's story from the moment I picked it up till the moment I read the last word. Another smashing hit by these to talented sisters. BRAVO!!!!! 🏍🐾🐶👩⚕️ I received an ARC from the authors for my honest review.
I was given an ARC for my honest review. I was so waiting on Kiwi and Piper's story after hints of them in other books. Kiwi is the fourth book of The Kings of Retribution New Orleans charter. Kiwi joined the Kings of Retribution after finding out his biological father was a monster and he unwillingly helped him. Piper is the club princess, Nova the club enforcer is her father and Riggs the club president is her uncle. Piper realizes she has feeling for Kiwi and with some things with her mother she decides to go to Texas for college. Fast forward to the end of her first year of college Piper comes home to New Orleans for the summer sporting a new look...one look at her and Kiwi is hooked. He knows he wants Piper more than anything but refuses to act on it, so he pushes her away. Piper tired of the back and forth push and pull between her and Kiwi decides to go on trip to Las Vegas with her bff from college Jia. When things happen and her and Jia go missing all the Kings pull together to get her back. When Kiwi and Piper do eventually get together it is magic...they are so good together. This story is full of drama, action, angst, and love. I love the Kings of Retribution and can't wait for more.
You know that story you can't wait for an author to write? The one you have been desiring for months, ever since it was hinted as a possibility? Well, that was Kiwi for me. Despite having read all the books written by Sandy Alvarez and Crystal Daniels, I was not ready for how extraordinary and emotional this story ended up being.
I've been eagerly waiting for the fourth book of The Kings of Retribution Montana Chapter since Wick and Nova were released. I mean, what would happen if MC Princess Piper fell in love with a biker? How would his dad, the enforcer of The Kings, react? What if her love-interest was the road captain of her family's club, who also happened to be older by almost 10 years?
Kiwi and Piper are meant to be. Despite their age gap, they balance and complement each other. They have grown together and know their deepest fears. While they try not to give into their attraction, life (and Crystal and Sandy's pen) will connect their future. Their story is a highly emotional journey, where the past and unforeseen circumstances will put their beliefs to test.
This book is an early Christmas gift to the fans of The Kings of Retribution. Trust me when I say you don't want to miss this book.
So excited for the next installment in this MC series! I love how seamlessly and easily these authors have carried this spinoff from their original MC chapter to this chapter where I am still engaged as a reader and it still intertwines with the previous series. This book focuses on Kiwi and the feelings he has developed for his MC brother’s daughter Piper. Growing up in the MC life, Piper has always been aware of how things work, but it hasn’t stopped her from crushing on Kiwi as she’s gotten older. When moving away for school doesn’t change her feelings, she comes back knowing that she is going to live her life and if things happen great. Kiwi finally comes to his senses and takes a chance, but only after his past comes back to haunt him through Piper. The book was gripping – I couldn’t put it down and it constantly kept me guessing on what was going to happen next. I was so happy how things ended for this couple, and I can’t wait for the next installment! I voluntarily read and reviewed an Advance Reader Copy of this book.
OMG.. this book was damn good. Previous books hinted that there could possibly be something between Kiwi and Piper and this book puts it all out there. Kiwi is awesome. His kiwiism kinda shows through which is awesome. His angst at wanting to have Piper but her being his brothers daughter puts her out of bounds. The push and pull between Kiwi and Piper is shown through the whole book but when you find the one that makes your soul smile, you cannot deny it, no matter how hard you try. Piper is awesome. She is young with a lot going on but she is written so well. She's not some flighty airhead and her love for her family shows constantly through the book. Her attraction for Kiwi is not some girly crush and she knows she will have a fight on her hands to see it come to be. There is so much action, adventure and heartache in this book you will not put it down until you turn that last page.. then you will want to pick it back up again. Definitely 5plus stars for this book!
Let me say this, the infamous duo has knocked it out of the park once again!
Kiwi & Piper's chemistry has been on my mind since reading Nova, and I have to say they will be one of my favorite Kings MC couples.
Piper has grown up in the MC and knows what loyalty, love, and family are and what they mean to each other, but as she has gotten older, the feelings for one of the brothers have turned from brotherly love to so much more.
Kiwi (also known as Tai) knows what the MC means to him, and that family is everything. He has watched Piper grow up and has watched and loved her with a step back until the time came for her to be his.
The story is moving, loving, gripping, exciting, and a bit of a tear-jerker. Crystal Daniels & Sandy Alvarez, you about killed me with the ending of the story and the beginning of the epilogue, but that ending put a big smile on my face and let out a deep breath that I hadn't realized I was holding.
I received an ARC for my honest opinion. Before ever reading crystal and sandy I didn't like MC books. Because of their amazing writing I absolutely love them. Kiwi was everything and more. We learn a bit about kiwi and his background which was so absolutely heartbreaking. His childhood was great but once he met his real dad it was so heartbreaking to hear him think he was anything like that monster. Piper and Kiwi together was magic, getting them to that point however...was hard! I was so frustrated with kiwi for all of his back and forth but when push came to shove that is his woman and he made sure anyone knew it. The angst in the book was really good. These ladies have gotten so good at making me guess what is going to happen. I can't wait to see what they come up with next. These are books i am so excited to read anytime they are released. 5 stars!
This book was phenomenal, Kiwi & Piper were the best!! Every time I read a new book in this series, it’s just like meeting up with friends & family. I loved getting the background of Kiwi, his story was definitely not what you expect, but I loved seeing the beginning of his journey. Piper, being the daughter of a member, she knew what came with being involved with the club, but she didn’t let nothing stop her from getting her Tai! And that’s something I loved, she called him by his real name, I just loved that. Their journey together was great, plus seeing them with all their animals, you will love! This is a must read!! I’m already looking forward to the next installment in this series & I’m already shipping two new characters!! Hopefully they’re going to be in the next book! And as always, this book is a must read & do not hesitate to pick this up, along with the entire series!!
Kiwi (Tai)and Piper are a much awaited story. We have seen Piper mature from a thoughtful, caring young girl into a mature, self possessed young woman. We finally get to see the back story on Kiwi and it gives us insight into his life in New Zealand and how he came to be a part of the Kings family. Kiwi is so many levels of wonderful there are just not words to do him justice. The relationship between Tai and Piper runs deep. It is a joy to see it take root and grow in adversity. There was a lot of action and the story moved at a fast pace. We get to see our Polson Montana Kings and as always Quinn has me LOL. This is not a story to be missed. Sandy and Crystal continue to dominate the MC genre and I can't wait to see what comes next. It just keeps getting better ladies...Thanks
I have been waiting for this book for forever...dramatic much...well it seemed like forever. I’ve loved Kiwi in previous books and couldn’t wait for him to get his own story and there’s no one better for him than Piper. We’ve literally watched Piper grow up through these books. I mean seriously, who hasn’t laughed their heads off at the craziness that was teen Piper and her seriously overprotective and overwhelmed Dad, Nova? I have to say that Kiwi was well worth the wait. When these two special people finally find their way to each other it is epic! And the fact that we get to visit with the Kings, New Orleans and Montana, and their significant others...amazing bonus! This book is fabulous and when you read it I have no doubt you’ll agree with me.
Kiwi is my favorite Louisiana man now. I've been anxiously awaiting Kiwi and Piper's story since their connection was hinted at in the previous books. Their story didn't disappoint i legit couldn't put it down I read it in one sitting because I just had to know what was going to happen. I don't like putting spoilers in my reviews so I won't. I will say that their chemistry was leap off the page fantastic. Their story had all the angst and heat you could ever want and that ending was perfect. I laughed especially at Fartbox and I cried. I really enjoyed getting to see all the Montana men it was awesome to get to see them again. Read this book you will not be disappointed. I can't wait to see who Sandy and Crystal write about next.
Kiwi & Piper are unbelievably perfect together! <3 The push-and-pull between them is shown throughout the entire book; though, Kiwi is a bit alpha there toward the beginning when Piper first comes home because he's trying so hard to fight their attraction. When Piper goes missing, it brings out a side of Kiwi that we hadn't seen previously, not really, but it makes him all the more lovable. Then, right before the end, it's heartbreaking and chaotic, and every bit a King's book. I love that we got to see the Montana chapter a bit longer in this book, and that they stayed to help as long as possible. And the ending? Perfection!
You ladies have done it again! <3
This entire review has been hidden because of spoilers.
I have been waiting for their story since the end of Nova, and I could not have loved it more. Kiwi, once he stopped fighting the feels, was everything you want in an alpha male. And Piper was such and awesome leading lady.
I loved seeing the glimpse of the other MC members, and adored being able to see the Montana members.
There were a few moments in this book where my heart couldn't take it. There was heat (lawdy the heat), there was sweetness I've come to expect with Sandy and Crystal's heroes, the humor, and the sense of family you get from the books.
I did receive this book as an Arc for a honest review. If you have read the other stories in these series you have been hearing and seeing something between club brother Kiwi and the club enforcer’s daughter, Piper . Finally their story, Piper takes off after school to figure things in her life . She comes home grown up and Kiwi takes notice. Read these story to see if they get their happy ever after. These story is action packed and keeps you turning pages to see what happens.
Awwww Kiwi!! Being a Kiwi myself I was really looking forward to seeing how Sandy and Crystal portrayed Tai and I found no fault with their character! And Piper and Nova! Can we take a second to have another “Awwww” moment about how we all want that relationship with our Dad! And then you have Kiwi and Piper. Smoking H.O.T!! 100% 5 stars from me!!
