Leigh has completely won me over. Patient, kind, loving and protective from the very start; he never wavered. Glenda “hated” him because of something buried from her past, and instead of pushing or holding it against her, he just waited. He stood by her quietly, let her heal at her own pace, and never once threw the truth in her face. That kind of patience is exactly what makes a book boyfriend unforgettable.

And Glenda, she’s a bad*ss. She’s been through hell, and watching her slowly piece her past back together while Leigh just loved her through it wrecked me in the best way.

This story hit every mark for me. If you haven’t picked it up yet, do yourself a favor, it’s a must read!

Oh how I loved this story! Glenda is my new hero. What that woman has gone through and survived. Leigh was perfect for her, his patience and loved for Glenda. I have loved all of April Berry’s books but Glenda and Leigh’s just hit me in my heart, and yes the end definitely had tears in my eyes. If you are looking for an MC series that will drag you in and keep you here until the last word I definitely recommend reading this series. Start with Bama so that you can get the full experience! Amazing story April Berry! You definitely knocked this one out of the park ♥️♥️

OH MY GOD! I am in LOVE with Leigh and Glenda! I have read every one of April’s books and every time I say “this is my new favorite” but with the girl tribe vibes, all around protective peeps, how absolutely badass Glenda is and the amazing way April handled the reality of PTSD this one will probably stay at the top of my list. I got so invested I almost threw my phone/kindle a couple times but 1000% a must read!

This was a gut-wrencher! Didn't Glenda deal with enough hell with her Ol 'Man?? Leigh watching in the shadows (he had his own role). Boom, Leigh is protecting Glenda. The road to love is not smooth and gold. I loved watching these two. We can believe love heals! It is part of the Royal Bastard MC which means spiciness!! Those scenes hit better because of everything else! Can't wait for the next one!

Once again April pulled tears from my eyes. Glenda has been through it, and Leigh... talk about being stuck between a rock and a hard place. I'm absolutely in love with this book and can't wait to get a physical copy. This story had everything I was needing, emotional damage, action, a strong FMC, a "hell yes" moment or two, and a happily every after that left me with that silly little happy grin on my face and my feet kicking.

Loved this story. Leigh and Glenda had a difficult and rough time working through all the issues surrounding Glenda. She had to learn to trust again. Leigh was always there but she was another brother’s old lady and off limits. He always loved her and when his brother turned traitor to the club, he was finally able to make his move and be there for her. A long road but they do finally get their HEA.

OMG April Berry did it again with this book. I loved this book could not put it down! Glenda is a total bad ass. I love her. She has been threw hell and back. Her and Leigh's romance is the sweetest. I love how he loves her and so protective of her. If I could id give more stars. Its a must read.

I absolutely loved this book. April D Berry has done it again. It’s book two of a new series for her. Defended by Bamba is book 1. I highly recommend them.
