From best selling author Mackenzy Fox comes the highly anticipated MC spin-off series from the Bracken Ridge

NOLA Rebels MC - (New Orleans Series Book 14)


Pipes

Those blue eyes landed on me

That’s the first time I knew I was toast

Casey

The woman I never dreamed could be mine

We had one wild night

Then it all fell apart

She has a fiery side

One that I love

I can’t get enough of the way she makes me feel

But even when the darkness lurks

We find our way back to one another every time

Like magnets who can’t be apart

Souls who never gave up

Even when my life is in danger

I’ll never stop fighting

For her

For us

I won’t back down

Not this time


Casey

We couldn’t fight it

Even when I knew I could fall

When I put my heart on the line

I took a chance

I gave in to how he makes me feel

To loving him, like I love this club

But in all the chaos

We dropped our guard

We didn’t see the storm brewing

The cold wind sweeping it’s way in

Until it was too late

Now the real fight begins

Because I can’t live my life without him

I can’t

He’s the reason I’ll hang on

Even when all hope is lost

Even if it costs me my last breath



The men of the NOLA Rebels MC will do anything for their club. They’re a brotherhood, a club who stands mighty, and above all else, they take care of business, New Orleans style.

The bikers may rule this city, but the women of the club have their hearts, and the men will do anything to protect what’s theirs.

It is part of a series, but can be read stand-alone with a HEA. This book is recommended for mature readers

As usual I like every book in this series. Some I like way more than others but I still like all of them.
This one has the same elements the others have with the found family of the clubhouse and the protective MMC, even though Pipes is not super over protective like the other members because he has a younger mentality and Casey is also very independent and headstrong, she is a Paramedic and have a very demanding career, very little time for bullshit and she can’t stand a cheater and her and Pipes started it off on the wrong side because she thinks he cheated, he DID NOT, but it wasn’t even technically cheating because they had spent one hot night together so even if was the case, they were not together but it wasn’t the case. But she doesn’t accept his explanation and doesn’t even want to hear him, and I GET IT because it did look really bad, but he was innocent in all.
I really love Casey and she proved to be a baddie in the end. I also love Pipes, he is actually very cute, romantic and funny. Very cinnamon roll personality.
Also what I really like in the this book is the preparation for STELLA, I’ve been waiting for her book which will be the last on the series, we’ve been getting crumbs from her since basically book 1 and we’ve been getting the crumbs of her “forbidden romance” with the club enemy the Detective Cale Callahan 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 I can’t wait

Cat Daddy!!

Pipes and Casey!

She crushed it with this one. These two are so perfect for each other. Pipes is the sweetest most caring of all the MC.

Casey is relationship shy because of things that happened in her past but PIpes finally works his way under her skin.

I can’t believe this series is almost over. I’m going to miss this crazy bunch with all there epic adventures.

While this is an MC book it is Romance book first MC Second so don't let the MC tag out you off.
Casey and Pipes have been circling for each other for a while, after a one night stand a club bunny runs some interfernence causing Casey to run. Pipes is not one to be put off so he keeps trying like the Cinnamon Roll he is.
This book is equal parts spicy, funny and angsty. There are plenty of twists and turns to keep you engaged. Add in the addition of a rescue cat and I have no idea what else you could want.
This can be read as a stand alone and has a HEA

This Book Had It All

This is another five star in the NOLA Rebels MC series with everything I love in my MC books. The steam was super-hot, the moments that had me laughing out loud were perfectly timed, and the suspense was out of this world with this who-done-it.

The connection between Pipes and Casey was so much a love story that melted my heart. After their first time there was a misunderstanding but it was their love for one another that pulled them back together…that and Midnight. I was laughing at times with the way Pipes took on a sheltered cat.

As for the suspense it was an “edge of your seat” type that had me guessing throughout the book. The time I thought I was given the killer Ms. Fox took me in a totally different direction just as quickly.

I highly recommend this book and I cannot wait to read Stella’s story in this fantastic series.

Pipes by Mackenzy Fox is the 14th book in the NOLA Rebels MC series and delivers a high-stakes, emotionally charged romance set in the gritty world of New Orleans. This instalment works well as a standalone, though it is part of a larger series, offering a mix of passionate romance, strong club ties, and an ever-present sense of danger.

The main characters, Casey and Pipes, have undeniable chemistry from the moment they meet. Casey is swept into a whirlwind romance with Pipes, a man whose deep connection to her and his club leaves her with little choice but to follow her heart, despite the danger it brings. Their relationship is built on more than just physical attraction; it’s a bond of loyalty, vulnerability, and fierce passion. Mackenzy Fox’s writing captures the intensity of their connection, blending moments of emotional turmoil with steamy romance, making their love feel raw and authentic.

The NOLA Rebels MC plays a vital role in the story. The club’s loyalty and brotherhood are crucial, with the men of the MC willing to do anything for the people they care about. The story doesn’t shy away from the gritty side of biker life, with the MC being a source of protection and a driving force in the narrative. This dangerous lifestyle forms the backdrop for the romance, creating a constant sense of tension and urgency.

As the story progresses, the tension escalates with a looming threat that puts everything Casey and Pipes have fought for at risk. The danger feels immediate, and Mackenzy Fox does an excellent job of building suspense as the characters face the threat of violence and betrayal. The action ramps up towards the end, delivering a satisfying and emotionally intense conclusion that proves the lengths these characters are willing to go for each other.

Mackenzy Fox’s writing style is raw, intense, and often poetic, particularly in the way it explores the inner turmoil of the characters. The alternating perspectives between Pipes and Casey give the reader insight into their personal struggles and desires, enhancing the emotional depth of the story. The novel includes several memorable lines that encapsulate the emotional core of the book, with characters expressing their love and determination in ways that feel genuine and heartfelt.

Even though this book is part of a larger series, it’s easily accessible to newcomers, providing enough background for readers to follow the storyline without feeling lost. The relationship between Pipes and Casey builds to a heart-pounding HEA (Happily Ever After) that leaves readers feeling fulfilled.

In conclusion, Pipes is a compelling read, packed with passion, suspense, and emotional highs. Mackenzy Fox has once again created a captivating story that will appeal to fans of MC romances and anyone looking for a love story full of raw emotion and high stakes. If you enjoy a combination of danger, love, and intense drama, this book is definitely worth reading.

Mackenzy Fox continues to prove her mastery of the motorcycle club romance genre with "Pipes," the fourteenth emotionally charged installment in the NOLA Rebels MC Series. This latest entry focuses on the incendiary connection between Joel "Pipes," a loyal club member with a shadowed past, and Casey, a fiery paramedic intrinsically linked to the club as V.P. Ryder's sister-in-law.

The novel ignites with an undeniable chemistry between Pipes and Casey, culminating in one passionate night that promises everything. However, their burgeoning connection is swiftly fractured by a painful misunderstanding, expertly sown by a club instigator. What follows is a months-long standoff fueled by Casey’s justifiable hurt and Pipes' desperate misery. Fox uses a charming and unconventional catalyst—a stray cat named Midnight in desperate need of a home—to finally bring the pair back into each other's orbits and clear the air.

Fox excels at crafting a hero who is more than just a tough biker. Underneath the MC exterior, Pipes is a deeply protective and devoted "cinnamon roll" hero, shaped by a traumatic past that includes amnesia and the loss of his brother. Opposite him, Casey is a compelling heroine whose strength and resilience are matched only by her capacity to love. Her initial hesitation to trust Pipes is well-founded, stemming from her own history with a cheating ex and a new, insidious threat from a stalker hiding in plain sight.

Beyond the central romance, the narrative is laced with high-stakes suspense. When danger fully materializes and targets Casey, Pipes and the entire NOLA Rebels club rally to save their own, reinforcing the series' core themes of unwavering loyalty and found family.

"Pipes" delivers a gripping and emotionally resonant story of two magnets who can’t stay apart. Fans of second-chance romance, protective heroes, and the unbreakable bonds of an MC family will find this a deeply satisfying read. It’s a powerful reminder that some souls are destined to fight for each other, no matter the cost.

A crucial note for readers: To fully appreciate the intricate dynamics and preceding events, reading "Ryder" (NOLA Rebels #13) first is highly recommended.

Oh how I love these NOLA Rebels and their partners. The stories are always fantastic, and I just find myself deeply immersed in their world.

I fully admit that I have been WAITING for Casey to find her person, and Joel (Pipes) is the perfect person for her. He's patient, he's protective, and he's willing to do what he needs to do for her. The fact that he adopted a cat, and was determined that Casey would be the co-parent for the cat just had me laughing. The setup was just so good. Then of course there is the fact that they had a steamy night together previously, and were on the verge of starting something only for Cupcake to ruin it all. Thankfully Joel is patient, and knew this would all work out in the end.

The relationship between Casey and Pipes was written wonderfully. I loved witnessing everything unfold, and as usual the suspenseful moments had me on the edge of my seat. Having read all the books in the NOLA Rebels series, I was ready for the suspense that Mackenzy writes. That being said I wasn't prepared for what happened. It actually caught me off guard, and I love that I wasn't able to predict how that would happen.

Speaking of relationships, these Rebels have my heart. Their friendship, their found family bond, and their banter is top notch. I have fallen hard, and these characters always bring a smile to my face. Mackenzy has set up the final book, Stella, wonderfully. Stella's love interest is one I've been keeping an eye on, and I cannot wait to see how this all transpires. It's going to be dramatic, there's going to be suspense, and I already know that Mackenzy will bring the steam.

I have been waiting for Pipes book since Cash, and I'm so happy Casey was his FMC. I could tell in Priest that Casey had a huge crush on him, and I was hoping they would get their HEA. With all Mackenzy's MC books the love story is first and MC second and this book was just so sweet and swoony with a dash of motorcyle cub conflict.

Pipes was down so bad for Casey and I loved it. He wears his heart on his sleeve and has such great communication. I absolutely loved his character. Casey was in a relationship, so Pipes never made his move and when Casey is finally single and Pipes shoots his shot, there is a big miscommunication which I usually hate, but it wasn't that bad in this book because it was resolved pretty fast.

Casey was put through it with her ex, and she has trust issues, which is where the miscommunication comes in, but she soon realizes she was wrong and that she can trust Pipes with her heart and, once that happens, it's pretty insta-love from there. Her character was so fiesty and had a smart mouth that Pipes really loved. He made her feel like she was just right and not too much like people had told her.

The banter between the guys in this book was so good! I was cracking up so much, especially Tag. OMG he is a grump, and now I want to go back and reread his book. I think this is one of the funnier books by Mackenzy. The stuff with the cat and Pipes calling him and Casey Mommy and Daddy and acting like the cat was their literal child had me laughing so hard.

Stella is next and the final book and I can't wait for that! There is so much still unresolved with the nomad brothers and really hope they get some kid of book or series, Haze and Willow need a book.

Pipes is book 14 of the NOLA Rebels MC Series. When you think it couldn't get any better, oh Mackenzy once again works her magic. I do recommend reading Ryder first to better understand some of the events that happen in Pipes.

Joel, aka Pipes, and Casey, the V.P. Ryder's sister in law, has had a thing for each other. Casey is a paramedic, and Piper is a member of the MC.

Piper has a loving mother, a stepfather who has raised him and considers him as his dad. He and his mother saved him after finding him in the lake with amnesia and more dead than alive. His older brother, Sawyer, ran away at 15 years old and never returned.

Casey works long hours, had a cheating ex
and a stalker hiding in plain sight. After a devastating night at work, she and Pipes end up hooking up. However, a misunderstanding happens, and she hates him.

Pipes is miserable and only wants Casey, but she is hurt by the misunderstanding caused by the club's biggest instigator, Cupcake. After months of Casey hating and ignoring him, not wanting to hear him out, they are brought together by a cat, Midnight, who is in desperate need of a home. Casey finally hears out Pipes, the misunderstanding is cleared, and they become Midnight's new mommy and daddy.

They pretty much pick up where they had left off. Casey and Pipes have to overcome unexpected events that further prove how much they need and rely on each other. Their love and loyalty to one another are so strong!

Pipes is protective over his woman and would be considered a cinnamon roll hero. When Casey faces danger, Pipes and the club stop at nothing to save her. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

These two can not get enough of each other. They go at it, making up for lost time and for everything they overcame. 🌶🌶🌶🌶🌶

I will never stop loving this series. The Nola Rebels MC books have held my heart from the beginning, and even though it feels like we might be approaching the end, these characters and their stories will stay with me forever. Out of all the MC series I’ve read, this one stands at the very top—it’s raw, real, emotional, and absolutely addictive.

This latest installment is the one we’ve all been waiting for: Pipes and Casey. From the moment Casey was introduced earlier in the series, I adored her—strong, fierce, and fearless, a total badass paramedic with a heart of gold. And then there’s Pipes. Caring, loyal, and layered in ways we hadn’t seen until now. This book gave us a deeper look at his past and the pain he’s carried, and I loved every second of getting to know him better.

Their story kicks off with the aftermath of a one-night stand gone wrong. When Casey returns, she’s not interested in hearing anything Pipes has to say—and watching him try (and fail) to get through to her was both heartbreaking and hilarious. But fate (and a foster cat) brings them back into each other’s lives, and that shared responsibility turns into something so much more.

Of course, no Nola Rebels MC book would be complete without some serious drama—and wow, this one delivered. There were twists I never saw coming, moments that left me speechless, and plot turns that had me flipping pages like mad. It kept me guessing in the best way.

Watching Casey and Pipes slowly rebuild trust and fall for each other was everything. Their connection felt so authentic, and their growth—both as individuals and as a couple—was beautifully written. They’re a perfect match, and I can’t wait to see more of them (and the rest of the crew) in however many books we get before this incredible series ends.

5/5 ⭐️ 5/5🌶

PIPES & CASEY are just so freaking cute with their fun, spicy, animal loving story. After a wild night & a misunderstanding & not being together for a few months they finally get a second chance & Pipes holds nothing back with letting Casey know what he wants & he wants & needs HER. They co-foster a cat & it brings them even closer and they fall fast but they are there for each other when needed with no questions asked & when each of them face a traumatic moment they are definitely there to doctor the other back always having each other's back & supporting each other. Another beautiful NOLA REBELS Couple.

I always feel like a broken record when giving my reviews on this series when I say I LOVED THIS BOOK & everytime I read one I just think the same as always, Mackenzy done it agian, another great amazing wonderful MC love story in the books. I have been honored to have to started arc reading this series with book 9 (RIOT) & been on this amazing NOLA REBELS JOURNEY SINCE & LOVE them all, Mackenzy writes such great stories so well that once you start you can't put it down, the character building, the way she describes the NOLA REBELS world definitely leaves you feeling like your part of the family & I sometimes wish I could go visit these people but then I remember thier characters in a book. THAT'S WHAT AN AMAZING AUTHOR MACKENZY IS & if you like MC READS & looking for a new series with THE LOVE STORY being the main focus before the MC business then this series will be what your looking for & YES WITH PLENTY OF SUPERB SPICE 😉🥵. I love this series so much that I'm also sad that it's almost over, but for me I still have the first 8 books to go back & read to hold me over LOL.

I can never stop loving this series and although it seems like we could be nearing the end of the Nola Rebels MC series, I will certainly never forget any of them. I have to say this is one of my favourite series and the MC series alone is the top for me. Everything about the Nola Rebels MC is perfect in my eyes and could not be any better.

Now a book if you have been reading the series that we have all been waiting for, Pipes and Casey. Oh, I loved Casey from the second we met her earlier on in the series, same with Pipes. Casey is one badass paramedic who does everything she can to help others and Pipes, well Pipes is a character who cares big and I loved getting to know a completely different side to him in this book, seeing his backstory and how his life changed.

Pipes and Casey had a one-night thing that when Casey came back did not go well, to say the least, and so Casey would not give Pipes the time of day to plead his case at all. It was funny but sad to see in a way. Pipes finally gets his opening when both of them volunteer to foster a cat which ultimately brings them closer together.

It can't be a Nola Rebels MC book without a bit of drama occurring in this book and it certainly happened here and it was indeed very shocking, I fully expected none of it which was the most surprising to me, the book was filled with so many twists and turns I had no idea where to look for the answers.

I loved Casey and Pipes building a relationship and growing closer to each other over time, they are such a special couple and I can't wait to see more of them and the others in however many books we are graced with before the series comes to a close.

Wild, emotional, and utterly addictive—Pipes and Casey stole my heart.

Pipes is the kind of MC romance that grips you from the first page and doesn’t let go. Mackenzy Fox has done it again with this unforgettable addition to the NOLA Rebels MC series. This story is raw, explosive, and so full of heart.

From the moment Pipes lays eyes on Casey, it’s game over. You can feel the instant spark—the kind of chemistry that burns through every scene. One wild night was never going to be enough for these two. They’re magnetic, chaotic, fiery… and absolutely made for each other.

This book had everything I love:
💥 A protective, ride-or-die biker who’s loyal to the bone
💥 A strong, fearless heroine who loves just as fiercely as she fights
💥 Second chances, soul-deep connection, and passion that leaps off the page
💥 Danger, loyalty, and heartbreak that’ll punch you in the gut
💥 A love so intense, they’d burn the world down to protect it

Their journey isn’t easy—there’s pain, betrayal, and a storm none of them saw coming. But Pipes and Casey? They fight. For love. For their future. For each other. And when it feels like all hope is lost, that’s when their story truly soars. 🖤

Fox’s writing is gritty and emotional in the best way, giving us a romance that feels real and earned. I laughed, I held my breath, and at times, I ached. But through it all, I rooted for Pipes and Casey with every beat of my heart.

If you love loyal MC brothers, high-stakes tension, fierce heroines, and love that never gives up—even when the world is falling apart—Pipes is a must-read.

This book is a ride—so buckle up and prepare to fall hard. 💣🔥

Pipes (NOLA Rebels MC #14) by Mackenzy Fox
Romance | MC Romance | Contemporary | Second-Chance | Grumpy/Sunshine

Mackenzy Fox delivers another heart-pounding, emotionally layered ride in Pipes, the fourteenth book in the NOLA Rebels MC series. While the MC backdrop adds grit and danger, this story is, at its core, a deeply satisfying second-chance romance between the gruff but golden-hearted Pipes and the tough, no-nonsense paramedic Casey.

After a scorching one-night stand, a well-placed lie tears Casey and Pipes apart before anything real can begin. But Pipes doesn’t give up—he pines, he tries, and eventually, a stray cat named Midnight becomes the bridge that brings them back together. Their chemistry is electric, and the emotional tension is palpable. Casey’s trust issues feel grounded and relatable, and Pipes? He’s the definition of a cinnamon roll hero—protective, persistent, and totally smitten.

This book is equal parts spicy, angsty, and suspenseful. There are some genuinely shocking twists (no spoilers!), strong found family vibes from the MC, and a deeply satisfying HEA. Pipes and Casey's relationship is messy, passionate, and real—with moments that made me laugh, ache, and cheer.

Though part of a long-running series, Pipes can be read as a standalone. Fans of the series will appreciate the callbacks and cameos (especially Stella 👀), while new readers can jump in and fall hard.

If you're into protective heroes, strong heroines, emotional depth, and MC romance where the love story comes first, Pipes is a must-read. Mackenzy Fox proves again why this series sits at the top of the genre.

Pipes is the 14th book in Fox's NOLA Rebels MC series. This book, featuring Casey and Pipes, is a motorcycle club romance with elements of second chance romance and enemies to lovers. While it is part of a larger series, it can be appreciated on its own.

There is a mutual attraction between Casey and Pipes which leads them to share a very passionate and physically intensive night. Unfortunately when Casey shows up with cupcakes the next day, she finds one of the club's "playthings" in a state of undress leading Casey to believe Pipes was in bed with her. While Pipes endeavors to clear the air and assure her that was not the case, Casey's romantic history won't let her really hear him. Fortunately, a few months later, Midnight, a depressed cat, brings the two back together as they agree to co-foster.

In addition to the relationship between the main characters, there is also an element of mystery when Pipes is attacked. As can be expected with any motorcycle club, there is always the potential for violence however this attack seemed to come out of thin air. The author slowly drops little nuggets through the book, building suspense. As the threat looms, readers cannot help but be captivated, eager to find out the truth and what happens next.

This was the first book I've read by Fox but it won't be the last. I thoroughly enjoyed the author's writing and I loved Casey and Pipes' story. While there is only one more book planned for this series, I'm keen to go back and start from the beginning.

ARC REVIEW

Pipes - Mackenzie Fox

4.5/5⭐️

📚📚📚
This is one of those series I’m just totally in love with! Pipes was everything I was hoping for. I did totally binge in one sitting. Pipes I truly loved as our MMC and the way he just showed how much he wanted Casey even when she wasn’t ready. But once she was omg it was everything. Casey as our FMC, she’s a baddie with a mouth and omg had me giggling so many times. Pipes being a cat dad was so great! I seriously loved that added part to the story. It was just to funny! These two have some great banter and the connection is even better. Without giving too much away, I totally recommend grabbing this one!

📚📚📚
If you like to read:

Holy hotness in hell Mackenzy! One word to describe Pipes- Daddy! Pipes & Casey were THE HOTTEST & dirtiest couple ever! That girl matched his dirty talk & I was left smiling, biting my lip, & curling my toes! Just like the other books in the series (& all of Mackenzy’s books), it was perfect! And I loved how Mackenzy wrote Casey. It was a little annoying how she wouldn’t hear Pipes out- BUT I totally got it. She’d been hurt before & had trust issues. So it was completely understandable. Plus she was woman enough to admit she was being “pathetic”, huge- HUGE, props for that. Anybody would feel & react how she did.
I can’t believe we’re 14 books in & only one more to go. It feels like Cash’s story was just being released & now the end is coming. It’s both sad & exciting. I’ve loved & looked forward to each book & literally have devoured them the second they hit my kindle. I’ve never been disappointed & I’m always left on pins & needles wanting more! But let me just say, no other book in the series has had me as excited as I am for Stella’s! That girl is sassy, feisty, tough as shit & is going to give Callaghan a run for his money! And I can’t wait to see it. Plus, those tropes for their book- DAMN! I’m also very excited to see what Mackenzy has up her sleeve for her next series. I’m hoping it involves Sawyer, Brew & Haze, because I’m left needing answers to those guys.

**Love a Protective Cinnamon Roll**

In the 14th book of the NOLA Rebels MC series, we get to know Pipes, and let me tell you, it does not disappoint! As someone who's still new to the series, I’ve been so excited to dive into Pipes and Casey’s story. Who can resist a sweet, protective guy like Pipes paired with a strong, independent woman like Casey? Casey is dealing with some trust issues from her past relationship, which makes things complicated after a misunderstanding with Pipes following their one-night stand. She really throws herself into her work, but Pipes isn’t backing down—he’s determined to win her over!

The banter between them is absolutely hilarious, and the tension? It's full of angst, packed with hot chemistry and attraction that’s impossible to ignore.

You’ll find yourself falling hard and fast for both Casey and Pipes as they go through their emotional rollercoaster towards their happily ever after. The slow burn leading to some seriously steamy moments is fantastic! With plenty of drama and unexpected twists, you’ll be turning the pages, eager to see what happens next. Once again, the author beautifully captures the essence of found family within the motorcycle club, illustrating how they come together to support one another in challenging times. Enjoy the ride!

Pipes is definitely among the top favorites from this series that I have read.

I’ve been looking forward to his book for quite some time, and it was worth the wait! Mackenzy Fox sure knows her way around motorcycle clubs, books, and being able to bring us a fun read that will leave us wanting a whole lot more!

The second chance trope between Pipes and Casey is amazing, and I think it fits their story really well. Adding friends and lovers to the mix makes it all the better. I truly adored their story so much that I could not put it down even if I tried. The connection between them was top-tier, and it had me in a chokehold.

Pipes is such a good MMC that I instantly fell in love with him (even more than I was in previous books) The way he was with Casey was so swoon worthy because he was such a cinnamon roll for our girl! You could tell throughout the entirety of the book that he loved and cared about her!

Let’s not forget about Casey💙 She is so sweet and such a strong FMC that I adored her in every way.

Both she and Pipes really belong together and I was thrilled to see them put together and I loved that they were able to have their HEA!!!

I highly recommend this book and of course, all the others in the series as well if you haven’t already!!

Pipes is the biggest golden retriever of the club so far. He's a good guy with a sweet personality, but the strength and backbone to look after those important to him. This has been one of my favourites of the series so far.

Pipes is already head over heels for Casey but after a misunderstanding she wants nothing to do with him. While she doesn't want to listen to Pipes, he's not willing to give up and instead he pines for her.

Casey is the grumpy part of this duo. It's not so much that she's a grump, but she's a little more serious and that could be related to her stressful job. Casey is Crystal's sister (Ryder the VP's wife) so she's aware of the club and how they work which is why she was quick to believe that Pipes betrayed her.

With a little bit of prodding from the women of the club and some moments where Casey saw the side of Pipes that she liked in the first place. As soon as Casey gives Pipes an opening, he's taking it. With his second chance to be with Casey he refuses to lose his chance and Casey finds that Pipes might just heal the cracked pieces of her heart.

Mackenzy gave us a few possibilities for the bad guy in this story, and I'm liked it drifted away from the bad guys that have been linked in previous books. I was pretty sure I had it picked and could see where it was going, but that didn't make the story any less enjoyable.

Pipes is a winner for me.

Happy Reading.

Holy moly, Pipes by Mackenzy Fox was packed with suspense, mystery, action, drama, and some scorching hot spice. I love a good dark MC romance, and this book checked off all the boxes for me. This book has a little OW drama, a strong independent FMC, and an OTTP biker who falls first and falls hard. I loved the storyline; it was different, original, and page-turning. I thought the characters were complex and had intense and undeniable chemistry. This book is part of a series and can be read as a standalone, but I recommend diving into the NOLA MC series and enjoying the wild ride Mackenzy Fox has created in her MC world. This book had my jaw dropping and saying "No Way" a few times.

Casey is independent, guards her heart with some pretty high walls, is loyal to those she cares about, and is a little grumpy. I loved her steel spine; she did not give in easily and really made Pipes work to get any part of her. Pipes was determined, a total sunshine golden retriever, and wore his heart on his sleeve. I loved their love story; they were the perfect reverse grumpy/sunshine couple with a rescue kitty thrown in!!! I so enjoyed this book and can't wait to see who is next in this series!!! -By Brooke

Did I know this book was going to be amazing...yes.
Did I know I was going to binge read it... also yes.
Did I know that it was going to permanently alter my brain... nope.
My thoughts:
-Every time this Author writes another NOLA MC's story I know that its going to have me in a chokehold... I legit could not put this book down.
-Pipes and Casey's story is unlike any of the others members... not only do they fall fast and hard but all of the twists and turns... all of the times that truths are revealed... I swear as soon as I got comfortable the rug would get pulled right out from under me.
-Was is worth it.... ABSOLUTELY... because let me tell you what... if I don't have a love like these two then I don't want it.
-Their relationship is raw and it's perfect!
-It's also extremely HOT... these two both dirty talk and lawd have mercy it will have you fanning yourself!
-Also I never thought that being a cat mommy/daddy would be so flipping adorable but here we are!
-Seriously if you love MC romances, Found family, men who are obsessed with their women, and women who are as fierce as they come, this series is a MUST READ!

I absolutely love Mackenzy Fox books, and Pipes just cemented that even more for me. After falling head over heels for her Brackenridge series, I was already hooked—but this series set in New Orleans? Next level. The atmosphere, the grit, the characters—Mackenzy just knows how to build a world that feels like home, even when it's dark and dangerous.

Pipes and Casey had such electric chemistry. The banter between them? Top tier. Their dynamic kept me glued from start to finish. The story was fast-paced with just the right dose of mystery, and it never felt rushed or flat—it kept me turning pages, needing to know what happened next.

And one of my favorite parts? Because it’s an interconnected series, I got to see cameos from other couples I’ve already fallen in love with. It made the story feel even richer, like catching up with old friends while diving into something totally fresh.

If you're into biker romance with a little more grit and a whole lot of heart, Pipes delivers. I absolutely recommend this one. Mackenzy Fox nailed it again—and Pipes and Casey? Perfect!

I received an ARC and am voluntarily leaving a review.

Cat Daddy…

Pipes and Casey may have started something they couldn’t stop. Even a misunderstanding couldn’t keep these two apart for long.

I really enjoyed Pipes AKA Cat Dad’s character in this one. He was so determinedly sweet with Midnight and Casey.

Casey’s character had been cheated on by her ex boyfriend and when she sees Cupcake(sweetbutt) answer Pipes’ door after their night together she is hurt. She freezes Pipes out for several months without listening to his side of the story.

Eventually Casey listens to Pipes and she has to put her trust into another man and it scares her. She’s stubborn, a workaholic and definitely a little prickly but Pipes would take her any way he can get her.

I loved the twists and turns in this one. There is a lot of moving pieces that surrounds them both some bad and some not so good pieces.

This book brings the steam, action and surprises almost every chapter. You will feel Pipes’ back story, the loss of his brother for years left a deep hole.

The Club is his family, he owes them for helping him open his new business and for becoming the man he is today. Casey brings along her own side story that will leave you shocked and praising her character in the end.

This is officially one of my all-time favorite motorcycle club romance series! I need everyone to go read these books ASAP!

Pipes is an enemies to lovers, forced proximity, reverse grumpy sunshine romance between Casey and Pipes.

I loved Casey so much! She’s such a tough cookie. While she prefers to see the best in people, she’s also capable of taking care of herself and protecting people she loves. I love how she opens up to Pipes, trusting him to share her worries and fears, and also her joy and love, and that he’ll always be there for her. Readers will absolutely love Casey and relate to her in so many ways.

Pipes is so swoony! There’s nothing he wouldn’t do for Casey, whether that’s protecting her at work, being her sounding board and shoulder to cry on when she needs to talk, or making her laugh simply because he can. If anything were to happen to her, he would stop at nothing to get her back and make sure whoever hurt her pays dearly. I absolutely loved him, and so many readers will too!

Thank you so much to @mackenzyfoxbooks and @theauthor.agency for my arc! I can’t wait to see what happens next in this world.

Pipes is now available in KU💗

I just love these NOLA mean and Pipes blew me away.

From the beginning l was hoping that Casey would land one of the members of the MC and I am so glad that it was Pipes. She has been through it and I am so glad that she has someone that is there for her and would burn the world down for her and her safety.

Pipes, I loved you since you were first introduced and after this, I love you more. Pipes was borderline obsessed and down bad for Casey. I really enjoyed the way their relationship progressed.

The chemistry between these two, whew, it was hot and it was intense.

As always I LOVE LOVE LOVE the found family within the club. The Nola Rebels have such strong bonds and loyalty that its incredible.

Sad that this series is coming to an end.

Mackenzy Fox sure knows how to deliver can’t-put-down MC romances, and with Pipes, she launches her highly anticipated NOLA Rebels spin-off with all the grit, passion, and edge we’ve come to crave from her writing.

Casey and Pipes have always had that slow-burn connection — the kind that simmers beneath the surface, only needing a single spark to explode. And explode it does. When they finally give in to the tension between them, it feels like that long-awaited HEA is right around the corner… but if you know Mackenzy Fox, you know she never makes it that easy.

One misunderstanding and the romance seems to be over but they keep coming back to each surrounded with all the danger, secrets, and heart-stopping suspense that define the MC world. This isn’t just a love story — it’s a handlebar-gripping, throttle-twisting ride through loyalty, redemption, and what it truly means to fight for love.

With the perfect mix of heat, heart, and high-stakes tension, Pipes brings the spice, the banter, and the brotherhood that MC romance readers live for. If you’re a fan of second chances, smoldering chemistry, and love stories laced with danger, this one’s a must-add to your TBR.

🔥 Buckle up — Pipes is a wild ride, and you won’t want to get off.

What a truly fantastic series !!! And a must read for anyone who is a lover of M.C Romances !!! Ok guys , I have to be completely upfront and say that I am the last person you would catch reading the M.C Trope . That being said , Mackenzy’s ( Nola Rebels New Orleans Series ) really has changed all that and become quite the exception. The way I have just fallen in love with this exceptional world she has created. The degree to which each character and each couple has just captivated me and pulled on all my heartstrings I really cannot even put into words. I’ve smiled , I’ve laughed , I’ve cried and I’ve also found myself screaming outta pure frustration. What never wavered was how hard I cheered and I utterly devoured each installment at an ungodly pace . In pipes we finally get his and Casey’s journey and phew are you in for one heck of a ride . Pipes is everything we dream of having - protective of the ones he loves , a true family guy and man is he a dirty talker Casey really was a great FMC as well . But something about pipes just had my heart and he definitely was my favorite.

I really enjoyed this one. Casey and Pipes had amazing chemistry that felt real and raw. Pipes showed a lot of heart and wasn’t afraid to be open, which made him stand out. Casey was strong and feisty, with some trust issues after her rough past, but their connection grew naturally despite some miscommunication. The romance was sweet, spicy, and emotional all at once. The MC world of the NOLA Rebels gave the story tension and danger, but the focus stayed on loyalty and love, which I loved. The banter with the club guys was hilarious and added great humor to the intense moments. The plot kept me hooked with lots of twists and heartfelt scenes. Even though it’s the 14th book in the series, it worked well as a standalone. I’m super excited for the next one. Thank you so much to the author and The Author Agency for giving me the opportunity to read the book in advance, I received this for free and I'm leaving an honest review.
