Chrome & Kisses: Graven Bastards MC

Graven Bastards MC: Tonopah, NV

by Nikki Landis

RAEL
It’s Valentine’s Day, and all I want is to marry my ol’ lady.
She’s the mother of my babies, a dedicated nurse, and my obsession.
That hasn’t changed since the day I met her, and she punched me in the gut.
Six years later, she still owns me.
There’s nothing I won’t do to protect her and the life we’ve built.
And now it’s my chance to prove to her that being with me is the best decision she ever made.
But when things don’t go according to plan, and it’s one disaster after another, I wonder if something sinister is happening to keep us from saying our vows.
I won’t let that happen, and neither will my Reaper.
The Berserker? He’s ready to burn down the world if that’s what it takes to ensure she’s ours forever.
Either way, this is happening.
Nothing will stop me from declaring my love for Nylah to the whole goddamn world.

Yes!!

Oh my yes!! More Rael and Nylah and Chrome and Cameron!! Just more, more, more!!
Reapers, berserkers and bastards, oh my! Will they finally get to tie the knot or is someone stupidly going to fuck with them?
What a great read!!

Team Biker takes the lead!

Aaawwwww this is just the sweetest catch up with favorite characters!!! Im so happy Rael & Nylah finally make it official! Of course it wouldn't be a Nikki Landis Graven Bastards book without some Reaper time!

Rael and Chrome

Nikki have done an excellent job with this book. I am glad that Rael and Nylah got to marry at last. It showed that love crosses boundries. She does the series a great service with the way she writes her books.

Nikki never disappoints

Loved it of course. Nylah must be a saint putting up with Rael. And those boys will turn out just like him. Anyone mad enough to threaten Nylah will never survive. Loved this so much.

Really Good

Even if it’s a short story. This was really good. I absolutely love how they handle everything that was coming at them. I highly recommend this.

Thank you Nikki Landis for the ARC of Chrome & Kisses! This book is part of the 14 Days of Love & Lust: Biker & Mobster and it was an absolute treat!

I always love diving back into Rael and Chrome because reading their antics are always a blast. Especially when you throw their kids into the mix. Rael and Naylah are finally tying the knot and it happens to be on Valentines Day. But it's not a Graven Bastards MC without some issues.

Many problems arise with the wedding: flowers dying, caterers cancelling, but that's not the icing on the cake. Naylah is being stalked by someone.

Perfect little addition to her other books and I can't wait for more of the Graven Bastards MC.

This is a fantastic short story with Rael, Nylah, Chrome and Cam.

Rael and Nylah are finally getting married, on Valentine’s Day no less, but problems are arising, flowers ruined, caterers cancelling and now Nylah is being stalked.

Sounds like a job for the Reaper and Beserker to join Rael.

There’s a surprise too 🙂

I love Rael and what better way to spend Valentine's Day than with him and his family as he prepares to make Nylah his by saying I do. Of course no visit to the GBMC would be complete without a little drama, pranks and kids who say the darndest things. This was a great read and as always I can't wait for more.

My favorite Reapers HEA

Love the story of Rael & Nylah’s wedding! Wonderful that they were able to dispose of the riff raff and still have a beautiful wedding (although I would have loved to have seen how Rael dealt with the flower & caterer issue lol).
Definitely 2 thumbs up!

This was a beautiful story. Rael and Nylah getting their happily ever after. Gage and Gavin are a trip, especially listening to their father in the bathroom. There's a little trouble with someone hitting on Nylah, but that's it. HEA.

A really good page turner. It’s paced well, has a solid storyline, and wonderful characters. I liked getting more of Nylah and Rael. And I loved the surprise. this has just enough of a story to leave you satisfied once you've finished reading.

Chrome & Kisses is a fast-paced, quick read novella set in the 14 Days Of Love And Lust Bikers And Mobsters world. It's lots of fun, festivities and excitement as well a visit from The Reaper and other Graven Bastards we know and love. A fun addition to this fantastic world!

[Allena · Rating 4 out of 5]

I absolutely love Rael & Nylah and the added bonus of his reaper & berserker make for one awesome character.

Great quick read with great storyline and characters.
