Jamie

Redcars #2

by R.J. Scott

Burning is control. Craving Killian’s touch is surrender.

Jamie has never claimed to be good. He’s a former hacker, a convicted arsonist, and an ex-con who’s killed just to survive—but he’s found a home at Redcars. The men there aren’t just friends—they’re his brothers. And when the man who held Robbie gives up a name before dying in flames, Jamie uncovers a network of monsters. Rich. Protected. Untouchable. For the people he calls family—for Robbie, who was broken and caged—Jamie would burn the world down and watch it turn to ash to keep them safe.

Only Killian—a lawyer with secrets in his blood and a war room built on vengeance—wants him to wait.

Killian unsettles Jamie in ways he can’t explain. His presence is a spark too close to fuel. The fear, the pull, the heat—it all blurs into something dangerously close to want. Killian doesn’t try to fix Jamie’s broken pieces. And when his steady hands quiet the fire in Jamie’s chest, Jamie doesn’t know whether he wants to fight him… or fall apart in his arms.

Bound by revenge, addicted to control, and drawn to each other in all the wrong ways, Jamie and Killian are on a collision course of pain and need.

The monsters they’re hunting won’t go quietly.

But neither will they.

Jamie is a dark, obsessive MM romantic suspense featuring a man who found silence in fire, and hope in an unexpected touch, combustible attraction, found family, a lawyer with a secret identity who hunts monsters from the shadows—and two men who refuse to let each other self-destruct.

Trigger warnings for past abuse, murder by fire, intense obsession, and dark revenge.

This is just as dark and gritty as the first book in this series, and I was on the edge of my seat for most of it.

This book is primarily about Jamie and Killian, but it also continues the investigation into the human trafficking ring that the Redcars team uncovered in the first book. John Mitchell might be dead and gone, but the ring goes much deeper than they first realized, as they continue to dig in their search for who hurt Robbie.

This is an intense, emotional and dark romance, and we get a front row seat to the personal demons that haunt both Jamie and Killian, and how they struggle to acknowledge that what they have goes beyond intensely and rough shmexing, both too scarred from their pasts to find it easy to admit to how they feel for each other, neither ready to be that vulnerable.

There's also of course still the theme of found family, of protecting family and what's yours, and I so appreciated the author's words of the love these men at Red Cars have for each other, how they stand together and work together to find the men perpetrating evil. I also enjoyed meeting Killian's team of hackers and the work they do in the Cave.

What I found especially interesting is how Jamie describes his intense need to burn things, how the need grows inside him and how he views the flames from a fire. It certainly made sense within his backstory, and provided additional insights into his character.

Well done, RJ Scott. Can hardly wait for Rio's story!

I love this series so much. It is brutal and dark and raw and not usually what RJ does but it's done so well you wouldn't know it. I love how Jamie describes the fire, completely unlike how other characters see it (and him) and it gives so much to both why he sets them and also how he sees Kendrick.
I know I already said I loved it but I loved it and I'm feeling impatient already for Rio to come out. The ring goes deep but the people of redcars apparently can go even deeper

I've been excitedly waiting for the release of Jamie since reading Enzo. I needed more!

Jamie has trigger warnings at the start so please read those before deciding to try as there is historical abuse, murder, human trafficking and violence included in this book.

This book however is so much more than that, its about found family and acceptance, its about finding the person who helps with the part of you the world broke.

Jamie is an ex con arsonist who works at Red Cars garage who offer a place to stay for people who need it. Killian is a Lawyer who secretly takes down criminals the Justice system couldn't get.

Jamie and Killians snark and heat started in Enzo and continued in this book. Their backstories are heartbreaking and you follow along in the book as they discover how strong each other are and how much stronger they are together. I love the relationship between Jamie and Killian and reading them deal with their attraction to each other is fire.
“You look beautiful like this. Marked.”

I adored the side characters, cant wait to find out why Rio needs to fight. I shouldn't but I do love Doc, he's so unapologetically rude and curt.

I absolutely loved this book it has all the things, Heat ✔️ Snark ✔️ Revenge ✔️ Love ✔️
I started and didnt stop reading till it was finished.

Highly recommend, its chef's kiss 💋

Another wonderful story. I love the guys at Redcars and how they took care of Robbie and were hunting down the men who had abused him and others and Killian and his team that used legal and off the grid ways to destroy the same people. Reading about Lassiter made me think of Epstein and Trump and how powerful people do get away with doing terrible things and how satisfying when one of them could be brought to justice and how we need these people in real life. I loved how Killian could stop the noise in Jamie's head and watching them fall in love was so moving. Bringing Lassiter down was the best and his slow death was the ultimate justice he had denied so many others. Really looking forward to Rio's story.

[Mandy · Rating 5 out of 5]

With this second book in the Redcars series, this author has proven that not only is she a master at writing low-angst romance but she’s also a master of the darker romance. This book carries on from Enzo’s story and highlights the developing relationship between Jamie and Killian as they continue the search for those who hurt Robbie. While their story is as intense and full of personal demons as the previous one, being together is not easy going for either of them, and they have to fight for it before they can acknowledge their feelings. I loved that underneath the grittiness, dark pasts, and searching for evil men, there is love, found family, and even, at times, a gentleness to the men of Redcars. There is also the certainty that these men will do anything to protect each other. Rio, Robbie, and Enzo are again involved in the story, and we also get to meet the group who work with Killian.
I loved this brilliant emotional, angsty, edge-of-your-seat read, and I can’t recommend it highly enough. I’m now impatiently waiting for Rio’s story.

I love this darker facet of RJ Scott's writing! The characters are brilliant and fascinating to get to know. I think I liked this one even better than book one!

[Elle Kay · Rating 5 out of 5]

Killian and Jamie’s story is not for the faint of heart. It’s dark and desperate and obsessive. It’s hunger and needs met amidst some pretty sketchy situations. It’s fire and ice. Vengeance and retribution. Passion.

And it hits those marks again and again. It’s also more graphically sexual than most of Scott’s works. The heat between these two men is combustible.

Caleb, Sonya and Levi make up the Cave team with Killian and add some lightness with good-natured teasing (as well as some more darkness through threats. What are friends for?). Enzo, Rio, Robbie and the rest of the gang at Redcars add protection, loyalty and a little more vengeance.

This series is a departure from Scott’s usual fare, but she does it well. Five stars.

[Woodatsi · Rating 5 out of 5]

Definitely not your average R.J. Scott story but man do I love this series! It's not for the faint of heart, it's rough, hard, gritty, but the reward is a balm to the soul.

We've met Jamie in the previous book 'Enzo', where he vowed to destroy the abusers of Robbie, a young man who's found a place and love with Enzo at Redcars.

Jamie is a convicted arsonist and former hacker who's found sanctuary at Redcars. He doesn't trust, has a short fuse but would walk trough fire - literally - for the men he calls his best friends.

Killian, whom we also met in 'Enzo' is a lawyer, he's got the pristine façade for the outside world to see but also together with a few trusted friends, secretly works on taking down criminals who escape the justice system.

The relationship between Jamie and Killian is pretty explosive, every time they meet Jamie snarks and Killian taunts by calling him 'Pretty'. But deep underneath all that is a fierce attraction, the knowing that Killian is exactly what Jamie needs to calm his mind, to stop the raging in his head, while Jamie gives Killian the control he so desperately needs.

Working closely together to find the men responsible for Robbie and other victims' suffering, they find out there's more to the other than they thought and what started out as hate grows into something a lot deeper.

I really loved this story, it's not for the faint of heart, there's no excuses for what the men have done in their past, it's dark and gritty but seeing how Jamie and Killian find a love so deep is a thing of beauty. We meet some of the previous characters again and we are introduced to some new ones whom I hope R.J. will give their own stories.

We already know Rio is up next and I can't wait to see what R.J. has got in store for him.

4+ Stars for Redcars #2!

Very engaging continuation of the story from Enzo (book 1). I liked meeting the new characters and following the investigation. The relationship between the MCs was a little rockier than in the first book…a lot of internal and external push/pull that kinda went in circles. Killian and especially Jamie felt somewhat hard to know, with both of them swinging back and forth emotionally. But I guess that’s part of their characters’ development, so kind of necessary. Just not as easy to connect with as Enzo and Robbie. Looking forward to Rio and can’t imagine who’ll eventually put up with Doc!

[Belinda Zamora · Rating 4 out of 5]

Raw and gritty

Jaime and Killian both have traumatic pasts.
They also have some initial animosity that's really just a cover for some heavy UST.
Jaime tends to get out of control and he needs Killian to help him in that aspect.
These two actually recognize each other and actually truly see one another at their core.
The chemistry between them was scorching hot.
I absolutely love the found family aspect and the revenge for Robbie was amazing.

[Rachel Winters · Rating 4 out of 5]

I really enjoyed this book, blinked and it was already over 70% through.

Jamie isn't a very nice character, very dark and broody with a bad abused past. But you can't help but root for him to have a happy ending.

Finding out what the lawyer Killian and his team do in the shadows was a great read.

Glad they got there happy every after.

Highly recommend. Can't wait for book 3. Lyric and Rio.

Another fantastic addition to the Redcars series. I loved Jamie and Killian..two wonderful characters. I would advise reading Enzo’s story before reading this because this series should be read in order. It was wonderful meeting Robbie again…I loved his character. I can’t wait to read Rio’s story next. Thank you RJ for a wonderful reading experience. ❤️

Unfortunately this book was too dark for me.

[Gaby · Rating 5 out of 5]

Now this is my kind of story. Fast paced and complex with a loveable psycho. Loving this series so far.

[Lisa · Rating 5 out of 5]

This is a dark romance with threads of friendship, loyalty, found family, and forever love. Jamie, a Redcar mechanic, is also a convicted arsonist and former hacker. He has little peace, a lot of anger from a childhood of abuse, and his only respite is lighting carefully-planned fires. Killian has his own painful childhood, but is now a successful lawyer with a secret room in the back for his team to conduct surveillance and research to bring down the most evil people who escape conventional justice.

It took me a while to get into this book, as took me a bit to get a handle on Killian and his little cast of characters. Once I got clarity on that, the book just took off with action, emotion, and the fight against the worst abusers and scum on the Earth. This story is focused on more vengeance on behalf of Robby (Bk 1) and retribution for other victims. It is high-heat, obsessive, and physical with some authentic-feeling details into the mind of an arsonist, as well as the life of hackers. There is a very satisfying HEA with a hint toward the characters in the next book and a continuation of the effort to bring down the larger, international trafficking ring.

[Eldora Deasil · Rating 5 out of 5]

This series deserves awards. The way that RJ explores the mindsets of those in pain, in confusion, in a process of change, is nothing short of extraordinary. This series is exceptional. I wondered how she would possibly move on from Enzo, which rapidly became my favourite book, but Jamie is equally beautiful in it's growth, love, and of course, vengeance. Its sequels are my most anticipated reads this year. I can't wait.

Jamie an Killian

This is the second book in the Redcar series and I can't get enough of it!  Jamie and Killian ignite the pages from the very first!  I absolutely love the way the investigation runs and love seeing the bad guys, and make no mistake they are bad, get their come-up-ins!!  You think if I beg RJ will get Rio's book out sooner?  Just asking for a friend....

[Bookstagramtea · Rating 5 out of 5]

Wow. Just wow.

This is sensational. Both books in this series top anything I've ever read, and I've read over 200 books so far this year alone, so my wow is the biggest wow I can stress. Read it. If I could pre order the paperbacks now for the next two, I would.

[Heather York · Rating 5 out of 5]

I'm going to start off by saying this is slightly outside my comfort zone. Some might think that was a bad thing or that I didn't care for the story. No. I loved it! Stepping outside my comfort zone is not something I do often but when I do, I always do it with an open mind because if we don't challenge ourselves we don't learn, and life is always learning. What is it that puts this outside that comfort zone? The fire, Jamie's pull towards the flame, his need to watch it, to control it, to use it as his brand of justice. I don't personally understand that kind of pull toward something that is so dangerous, that holds the potential to get out of control and because of that I can't speak to how accurate the author got it. What I can be sure of is that RJ Scott did her homework, not just to get it right but because she respects life's differences, one's needs and desires.

Now for the book.

Jamie has it's own story but it is part of a four book story arc and Jamie is the middle so you need to start with Enzo. Is there a beginning and an end here? Yes and no. Yes, there is a more specific guilty party Jamie and Killian are focused on which does have a conclusion but there is more to come so again, this is a series best read in order. Because it is a read in order series, I won't delve into the plot so I don't spoil the series as a whole. I will say, it is dark, it is disturbing, it can be hard on your heart to read but because of the respect the author shows that I mentioned above, it is also deliciously satisfying.

I talked about Jamie's love of the flame and his own past that got him to Redcars but he is only part of the story, we also have Killian. Killian is a lawyer we met in Enzo and though he comes across as commanding, he too has a past that brought him to where and how he is. On the surface, you can't imagine two people more opposite and not right for each other but then you see inside and realize they are actually perfectly matched. They complete each other but they also understand the need to let the other be who and what they need to be.

As it is an ongoing story arc, we get to see Enzo and Robbie again and to see more of Robbie's healing. Robbie's scenes might actually be short in wordage and page time but it is another example of the author's respect for healing, that it can be an ongoing and never-ending journey. It also shows that found families are just as strong, actually stronger for some, as those stemmed in blood.

As I started with, I may not understand Jamie's pull toward the flame making it a bit harder to connect to him, it did not take away from loving the story or the characters. Frankly, the fact that I do love everything about Jamie, while not understanding the character's flame pull, speaks louder volumes to how brilliantly and emotionally told this story is. A winner on all sides.

One last mention, we originally met Redcars in the author's Single Dads 6th entry, Pride which tells(in part) Logan's story. We don't see Logan a lot in the Redcars first two entries but he is mentioned and because of that, I highly recommend reading Pride before you start Redcars, though it is not a must because it is not the same story arc but it does introduce the series and characters.

[JustJen "Miss Conduct" · Rating 4 out of 5]

4.25 stars - This story picks up where the previous one left off, with the guys at Redcars garage still struggling to deal with Robbie’s past and help him heal. Jamie is one of the ex-cons that was given a second chance at Redcars. He has quite the past and issues from it he deals with to this day. Thankfully, he has his best friend and roommate, Rio, to help ground him and keep him in check. But Rio has issues of his own and isn’t always able to see the signs quickly enough. In order to deal with his trauma-induced mental issues, he starts fires. To control that urge, he finds other outlets. He seems to have found another one in Killian.

Killian is an attorney, or that’s his front anyway. He was also taken in by Redcars a few years back, but he now has a different mission. What he shows the world hides both his past and his current team of “operatives” who have made it their mission to take down bad guys the official way. They gather enough info on someone and then leak it at the appropriate time, all the while, Killian is on the outside acting like the straight and narrow attorney. On their list are the people who were behind the abduction and torture of Robbie.

Killian and Jamie should not even be near each other given their current statuses, but they are drawn together with something other than them both chasing the same evil people. Killian provides Jamie an outlet through dominating and rough sex which Jamie finds he not only craves but which actually calms the voices in his head. They are so bad for each other, yet so good at the same time. This leads to some pretty hot scenes in more ways than one. When Jamie doesn’t have access to Killian, things get a little dicey and Jamie almost jeopardizes everything.

I really enjoyed this installment. I loved seeing Enzo and Robbie still doing so well, even if Robbie still has some understandable setbacks here and there. It was also nice that Robbie was able to take a more hands-on approach to the mission. Killian’s team are interesting characters as well and we get to see more of them doing their thing in this one. Looks like more of the strings are unraveling for the next installment with finding a few more of the bad guys. Rio has a lot of his own issues and I’m really looking forward to seeing his story play out. And, it looks like we are even going to get a story about that cranky doc! I’m ready for more, so bring on the next book!

Wow! The pain from Enzo's book for Robbie has carried across into Jamie's as they continue to search for those who hurt Robbie. Help comes in the form of Killian, a lawyer well presented to the public but has a secret side. One that looks on the darker side, serving out punishment for those who deserve. Right now, none deserve it more than two men who have been named relating to Robbie's case.
This brings Jamie and Killian into each other's orbit more than would normally happen and there is no denying the tension that instantly rises between them. Jamie isn't known for his fondness of others, except his family at Redcars. What he does love and admire, is fire. It helps calm the chaos in his mind and has truly studied it, sort of like an art form.
I found it fascinating, just how the author described the fire/arson from Jamie's POV. It's like an attraction, a real bond that he has to it but he also needs it as well, sometimes scarily so which can bring even more danger than usual. He's not happy when he discovers that something else that helps to calm the chaos in his mind, is Killian. The control he takes when they're together, taking Jamie out of his mind. The care he shows, something Jamie doesn't know how to accept. Both men have dark times in their past, Jamie moreso, but Killian admires and needs Jamie just as much. Can't explain why, even to himself, and that comes across clearly when no thought is given to some actions.
It's intense, often dark, and an excellent look into the minds of people who think differently than the norm. I cannot recommend this series enough and cannot wait to find out how it moves forward.

[Dawn · Rating 5 out of 5]

This is the second book in the Redcars series, and who knew the author, I’ve been reading her romance books for years, had such a dark side! This is just as dark as the first book in the series, and at times I was almost scared to turn the page, I am a mega wuss.

The story carries on from book one, searching for the evil people running a human trafficking ring and the man who hurt Robbie but this story focuses on Jamie and Killian and Killian’s team of hackers.

I found it interesting the way the author described Jamie and his intense desire to burn things, his internal feelings as he watches the flames. It gives more insight into his character as an ex-con arsonist.

Jamie and Killian are seriously flawed and fighting their personal demons and their relationship is a struggle, trusting enough to let the walls down and they certainly deserved their HEA.

Underneath all the darkness the author stresses the importance of chosen and found family and these guys at Redcar, a safe place for ex-cons, totally have each other’s backs and will do anything to protect each other. I was pleased that Enzo and Robbie were still involved in this story and I can’t wait to read Rio’s story next.

This book comes with trigger warnings, it is dark and covers abuse, human trafficking, revenge and violence so please heed these although the story is about so much more, like heat, snark, banter and love.

If you enjoy your books dark then I recommend this one.

[EQUUS · Rating 5 out of 5]

I almost never repeat myself in my reviews, but why inventing hot water when it's already there.
I've read most of the books written by RJ Scott and liked or loved every single one no matter if she writes alone or in colab with another author. Every topic she decides to write is thoroughly researched which I really appreciate.
But IMO she's at her best when she delves on the darker side. I absolutely loved her Shadow Team 3 book series!
Morally grey characters, with horrifying pasts and a lot of issues to overcome combined with found family and some mystery and action is one my favorite tropes.
There's an abundance of the above in Enzo (Redcars 1) Honestly it's one of the best books I've read in a year. Heartbreaking, touching, uplifting, raw, gritty. No simple out of the box solutions. Just people trying to do their best and stick together. The reason I'm talking about Enzo is because you absolutely can't read Jamie without reading Enzo first.
And Jamie just cranked up a notch or two in all mentioned above. Totally different couple and dynamics, may that be attraction between Killian and Jamie, or found family(es). Jamie already knows he has one, so does Killian in a way. Their attraction is off the charts and the dynamics between the two is balanced on the edge of a razor. Killian's career and secret identity vs. Jamie's psychotic impulses caused by childhood traumas. Throw both found families into the mix and there's so much at the stake. Some causes are worth risking everything though...
Take the triggers listed seriously because it might not be for everyone.

[Elaine Gray · Rating 5 out of 5]

Jamie is the latest chapter in Redcar's garage saga, which dives deep into emotional trauma, redemption, and the tangled web of justice served in unconventional ways. Picking up where the last story left off, the narrative brings back familiar faces while introducing new dynamics that are as volatile as they are captivating.
Jamie—an ex-con still haunted by his past—finds moments of clarity through the often tumultuous friendship with Rio, a character whose own trauma manifests in destructive urges. Their relationship is a powerful mirror of two broken men trying to stay afloat, and it’s through this lens that the story introduces Killian: a shadowy lawyer with a vigilante streak and a mission to unravel the sinister network that hurt Robbie.
But Killian isn’t just a suit with secrets—he’s Jamie’s volatile balm, providing intense physical release and psychological grounding. Their connection is messy, raw, and pulse-pounding. It shouldn’t work, but somehow it does. The author handles their dynamic with a mix of fire and finesse, crafting scenes that blur the lines between need and danger.
Meanwhile, Enzo and Robbie’s continued growth anchors the story with hope, showing how healing isn’t linear but possible. The inclusion of Killian’s covert team adds intrigue and expands the universe of Redcars, teasing bigger battles to come.

[SNik · Rating 5 out of 5]

Second in series (Redcars), best if read in order. Found family. Dual POV. Heed content warnings.

Burning is about control for mechanic and hacker Jamie, and even when he is at odds with hotshot lawyer Killian, he willingly hands over that control to quiet the noise in his head. Killian understands Jamie’s darkness as he has his own jaded past, but he’s risking more than just his heart by becoming entangled with the former convict.

This story continues the overarching plotline of a morally grey group of people trying to bring justice to some terrible villains, protecting victims and seeking revenge for one of their own. Jamie constantly challenges Killian and at first Killian is not sure he can be what Jamie needs but eventually is unable to deny their attraction. Both men have to come to terms with their own personal demons and possibly find a way to work together on a personal level as well as managing their vengeance side hustle. There is the risk to Killian’s group of friends that isn’t really resolved as Jamie and Killian commit to a relationship, but overall I enjoyed Jamie and Killian’s dynamic, the heat between them, and their fall into a special connection. Enjoying this dark series. 4.5 rounded up

[Ana Silva · Rating 5 out of 5]

Jamie! I’m so glad I was finally able to read this book!

What a crazy, wonderful, loyal, broken man. I’m in awe of the strength Jamie possessed. Having gone through the hell he went through and still be a good person(on his terms), it’s a real miracle.

Being abused by those who were supposed to protect him not once but twice, will mess with anybody’s head. I was actually surprised he didn’t derail completely and more often 😅

I loved how his and Killian animosity towards each other fittingly went up in flames. “Hate” fking is my favorite trope. There’s just something about two people who have so much chemistry despite hating each other.

Killian really gave him a safe space to be himself. Besides his found family, Killian was the only person who could calm the noises in his head. The only one who could make him forget for a while his messed up reality.

It hurt me that he believed nobody would love him for him. That there was nothing lovable about him. I’m glad he was proven wrong because he really deserved someone to see him beyond his flaws.

He might have been brash!t crazy, but he was Killian’s baths!t crazy😆

OMG this might be one of my shortest reviews ever. Why? Because I am so blown away by this book that I almost don’t know what to say about it. The relationship between Jamie and Killian is solid but there is a cliffhanger that’s teases the next book and I can’t wait to read it. RJ Scott is one of my favorite authors and this book – and series which must be read in order – is only one of the reasons why. She can write sweet and tender stories and she can write ones like Jamie that will keep you on the edge of your seat and holding your breath way too often. Bravo RJ – this book is fantastic!

This is one of these books which you want to read but also feel you need a break on a regular basis.

The Redcars series is dark, difficult to read and good. These men are part broken, part unapologetic in their crimes and value family, love, revenge and justice above the law.

Jamie and Killian are fire and oil, burning (sorry for the punch) and hating, and it takes a while for them to realise what they have with each other. They do work well togehter, they fit and I do love how their relationship comes together.

The story carries on where Enzo and Robbie stops, this time they go after one of the higher villians and like with Enzo, Jamie is not above violence.

I found it a bit more difficult to get into this couple but it's still an amazing read.

Jamie and Killian's story was fantastic!
It lets us see what all that heat and snarkiness led to from the first book, Enzo.
It was worth the wait.
Yes, this book is dark, as was Enzo, but also in it was heat and amazing friends that are willing to put it all on the line for each other
I thoroughly enjoyed the consequences doled out to the disgustingly evil people who hurt Robbie.
All the men have had horrible pasts, but they come together to protect Robbie and destroy the evil. In doing so love is found, and I am here for that!
I loved getting to know what made Jamie and Killian tick and seeing their love grow and the healing begin.
