Simon

by C.M. Steele

Simon had pushed Vivian away one too many times, but it wasn't because he wasn't insanely obsessed with her. Timing mattered. They were too young, more importantly, Vivian was too young for the plans he had for her. Unfortunately, one more refusal, and a woman getting in the way had been enough for her, and things spiraled out of control.

“I hope we never see each other again. Forget you ever knew me, and I’ll do the same.”

If Vivian could have taken back those words, she would have. She knew words had power to hurt, goodness knew she did. Simon's dismissal over the years had stung, but telling him she never wanted to see him again was the last words she uttered before tragedy struck.

Now, waking up from his coma, he may never remember the cruel words she spat in his face that fateful night, but the guilt ate her alive. Could they move on from the weekend he can’t remember, and she can’t forget?

I normally love cm Steele’s books but this just feels like a repeat of the first book in this series with the whole in love with another riders daughter and push her away until she’s of age. Speaking of age, it’s very confusing and some mix ups on that. It says in the beginning she turns 18 in 2 months. Then 2 months go by and it says she turned 18 while he was recovering. Then she says she turns 18 tomorrow, a few sentences later her dad says I know you’re 18 now but blah blah. I’m like which is it? Thought they were going to have babies immediately but then bam she’s on birth control and then epilogue is 2 years later and they’re just now off it and having a baby.

Dual pov
Dual virgins
Other WM and man drama even if its unwanted but so many woman wanted the H.
Epilogue 2 years and 12 years out.

It's you by MeemsAngel82

This was drama but in a good way! This was an entertaining read with some steamy scenes and a couple that had been waiting to be together. I liked the two of them but there are obstacles to overcome and it was a crazy ride to happiness.

The feelings were real but she was still too young.

And that's where a conversation should have taken place! My goodness! The amount of people and obstacles these two have to overcome and in such a short while. I felt for them and was also loving some precious characters that were present! They were steamy together and needed to talk. I'm happy that they finally got the HEA that they deserved and others got theirs. A wild ride with a hot couple.

This is book number 3 of the Steele Riders MC Second Generation series and focuses on Simon and Vivian. Simon has been in love with Vivian for a while but is determined to wait until she is 18 to make his move. Vivian has loved Simon for a while as well but gets tired of him pushing her away. Simon can only take so much of being around Vivian without being able to stake his claim on her so he does what he can to push her away until he can go after her. Things change when Simon has an accident that leaves him injured and in a coma. Vivian and Simon have to overcome some obstacles before getting their happy future, but they are both completely committed to each other no matter what. This was a great story and a great addition to the series.

Simon (20) and Vivian (17 turning 18 in a month) she is three years younger then him.

He is so harsh to her, I get she is younger but he acted like a dick, only so much someone can take of being pushed away till they snap.

A hotel receptionist hits on him and comes into his room then he is in the shower and the FMC sees and gets pissed they have an argument and she tells him she regrets ever liking him and that he won’t ever see him again. A car hits him when he is walking which leads him to lose what happened as he can’t remember the trip just knows they were arguing but doesn’t know why

Vivian feels guilty after that and can’t look at him, I don’t get why he wanted to wait till she graduated high school and him college like she is 18 and a few months won’t make a difference in my book

Happy ending after they find out who ran him over

They are on a collision course with their future

Simon is the third book in the Steele Riders MC Second Generation series. This is a young love story with a large side order of obsession. The story is about Vivian and Simon, these two have been into each other for years now. But Simon has been waiting the last two years until she turns eighteen and graduates high school and he graduates college with his automotive engineering degree. He wants her in the worst way and she has decided her crush on him has to end. They are on a collision course with their future and it is going to explode, be messy, have a lot of emotions, a ton of smexy naughtiness and have a HEA that is perfect for them.

I loved reading Simon by C.M Steele. She has always wanted him but he just keeps pushing her away and after one to many times she’s done. She can’t take it anymore, she believes he’s made it perfectly clear he doesn’t want her but she could never be more wrong. He wants her more then anything but believes he needs to wait for the right time because she’s so young but after so long he feels like he’s losing her and when an unwanted person gets in the middle he knows he has to do whatever it takes to get back what is his.

Simon and Vivian have loved each other for years, but he was determined to wait until she was eighteen before making his move. He keeps pushing her away, thinking it will help him push away his feelings, but it only makes it harder. When someone tries to come between them, chaos ensues, and love wins out in the end. This is a wonderful love story about thinking you are doing the right thing for love, but realizing the love is more important than waiting. Simon is book three in the Steel Riders MC: Second Generation series, and I can't wait to read the rest of the series. I voluntarily reviewed a copy of this book.

Amazing! The Second Generation books have been so fun to read!
Simon has loved Vivian for what seems like his entire life but he is waiting for her to graduate high school before making his move. The problem is the more time he has to spend around her and not claim her the harder it is for him. And the the chaos begins and it seems like everybody is trying to keep them apart. But Simon is determined to overcome all the obstacles in his way and claim her as planned.
I love seeing the parents and other club members in the second Gen Books! Its so much fun!

Simon has tried to keep Vivian at arms length as she is too young, still under eighteen. She has no idea how obsessed he is with her and pushes her away as he cannot trust himself. When they are all at the same ski resort and another woman is trying to insert herself between them, Vivian gets the wrong idea.

There is a lot of conclusion jumping as you would expect with a teenager. When Simon is hurt and in a coma, she hopes he does not remember the ugly things she said.

Simon

What an intense, drama filled story. Simon has been in love with Vivian for years, and just waiting for her to be of age. But typically when others try to create drama and jealousy, feelings are hurt, and doubt creeps in. Then when an unfortunate accident occurs, there’s guilt, and the unknown of who or whom tried to hurt Simon. Awesome story, full of questions and looking for answers.

I love the Steele Riders MC series and am enjoying the second generation books. Simon and Vivian have some hurt and miscommunication to work through. I love how the MC are family and will do anything for each other. Reading about the original characters and how their life has worked out is one of my favorite things about the second generation series. Enjoyable read. Hoping for more books in the series.

Simon had pushed Vivian away one too many times, but it was to protect them both as shes too young, but when she utters the words she wish she never knew him and he ends up in a coma after an accident will he remember? Can she forgive herself? Well written engaging teasing steamy romance, a great addition to the series

Cm Steele did it again. This book was amazing. While you don’t need to read the books before this it helps. Plus there are also amazing. Love seeing the 2nd generation kids getting together in this new spin off series. Simon and his “trouble” had a ton of chemistry. This book has no cheating and a happily ever after.

[Jeanne Richardson · Rating 5 out of 5]

I've read a lot of books written by C.M. Steele; she is one of my favorite authors. I can’t wait to read more of her books.

This is the third book in the Steele Riders MC Second Generation Series; it is a stand-alone short story. The story is about Vivian & Simon; after their last breakups he has an accident. When he wakes up from his coma he’s lost his memory.

[darkdirty-bibliophile · Rating 4 out of 5]

I absolutely adore this book—it's fantastic! I love every single one of CM Steel's Steel Riders series. The next generation story was absolutely amazing; you definitely need to pick it up. Next up is Miles’ story, and I can't wait to dive into it!.

I absolutely loved Simon and Vivian. The loyalty and love between them is phenomenal and the chemistry is off the charts hot. This is a fantastic read that will keep you hanging on. A must read for all that love C.M Steele.

The h being occasionally irritating / stupid spoilt it for me a bit but overall enjoyed. After the accident one would think she would be by his side but the idiot let H believe she was mad at him because of some guilt she had ? Obnoxious as hell

[Rachel Lane · Rating 4 out of 5]

This is a next-gen Steele Riders book.
This is a little different one. It was a slow burn but had a good plot i binge-read in a night.
Enjoyed seeing the kids of some great characters find their own HEA.

[Sheila · Rating 4 out of 5]

Simon always knew that Vivian was the one for him but being three years older seems a lifetime to wait for her and things are not always going his way. Things start to look better on the families ski trip.

The author has given us a heartwarming story that pulls us into the lives of Simon and Vivian. The story keeps us turning the pages with secret desires, secrets, lost memories and steam.

okay

This story was okay. I thought the story was good but it did take a minute for me to connect with these two characters. It felt like it was just going around in circles a few times but overall a good read.
