Biker's Temptation

by Roxie Rivera

Melissa

A biker bar. A rundown joint filled with rough, dangerous men.

It’s the last place a librarian like me would ever plan to be on a Friday night, but here I am, enjoying a drink with my book club girls. It was supposed to be a silly little joke, a mischievous way to celebrate our summer of spicy biker romances.

Until I see him.

The muscled silver fox with tattoos and a dirty leather vest emblazoned with patches.

His eyes are on me, tracking my every move. Undressing me. Making me crave wild, nasty things.

Then he saves me during a fight and offers me a ride home on the back of his bike

Shane

I notice her the minute she walks into our bar. This curvy bookworm doesn’t belong here, not among the grunge and filth.

After she’s left behind by her friends, I take my chance. Now she’s got her arms wrapped around my waist, her thighs pressed against my hips as she balances on the back of my bike.

A reformed felon like me doesn’t stand a chance with a sweet, high-class woman like this, but when she invites me inside, I show her just how good a wild man like me can make her feel.

And maybe one taste will be enough to tempt this dark-haired beauty to let me claim her.

About the author

When I’m not chasing after my wild preschooler, I like to write super sexy romances and scorching hot erotica. I live in Texas with a husband who could easily snag a job as an extra on History Channel’s new Viking series, a sweet but rowdy three-year-old with Tetralogy of Fallot, and Bosley, our Great Dane with major mommy issues.

I also have another dirty-book writing alter ego, Lolita Lopez, who writes deliciously steamy tales for Ellora’s Cave, Forever Yours/Grand Central, Mischief/Harper Collins UK, Siren Publishing and Cleis Press.

Loved the heat, loved the maturity, loved the connection between these two! A quick glance across the room was all it took, and then a series of events, brought these two together. That was it, they were solidly together from that moment onward <3

MC Love, Nothing Beats It

Melissa is a librarian who loves to read romance books. She and her book club friends decided to take their monthly “meeting” to a biker bar. Not her usual type of place. Slinger (aka Shane) happens to be a biker and co-owner of the bar. One thing led to another -as happens in a biker bar-and Shane saved Melissa from getting hurt in a bar fight. And of course, they had been eyeing each other the whole time in the bar. They meet outside the bar, where Melissa discovers that her friends accidentally left her behind. Shane offered her a rude hone. She accepted and their love story began. I love MC romances and really liked seeing how Melissa and Shane found ways to connect and respect each other despite their differences. She was willing to give him a second chance when she learned he had been in prison. Can’t wait to read the next book in the series.

This one was a quick read. I liked how Melissa and Shane meet, how both of them saw something that wanted them to learn more about this person and they went about doing that. Sure things moved at lightening speed, but it worked for them. Shane didn't hide anything about his past and Melissa accepted him. It was great when Melissa's father stopped by to speak with Shane, really didn't got the way Shane thought and that was a good thing. I do wish something bad would have happened when Melissa's ex stopped by, he seemed like such a big POS, he needs to be taken down a peg.

Melissa is with her book club holding it in all places, a biker bar. Probably not the best idea but her club doesn't always follow the norms. Catching the attention of Shane, a biker in the bar she never thinks she is going to end up having the night of her life with him. Can he be her happily ever after?

Liiked this opposites attract story. Could have been a bit longer because I enjoyed this couple so much but highly entertaining.

What a sweet and steamy read. I really liked these characters, they were very relatable. I just loved the fact that Melissa is a librarian. Melissa meets Shane one night while she is out at a bar with her book club. The chemistry and vibe between these two from the beginning is simmering hot.
This was definitely a great opposites attract book.
Looking forward to the next book in this series.

[Dalia]

The story centers on a sweet librarian and a reformed biker crossing paths in the last place she should be—a gritty biker bar. Their instant attraction, protective moments, and opposite-worlds dynamic made their connection feel intense and natural. I loved seeing Shane be honest about his past and how Melissa chose him anyway, proving that sometimes the most unexpected pairings just work.

Loved❤️

Highly recommend this bike romance book. Loved the Hispanic touches! Shane and Melissa characters were perfect. I would've liked a little bit more of story on what happened with Caleb and Melissa though. Can't wait for Daisy's story!

Unexpected but fun

This story starts fast, but gets deeper as you keep reading. Found it funny about a book club going to a biker bar. Been there...did it!! Really liked how you got to know both characters and loved the ending.

[Aliyeaha]

I enjoyed this alot. I don't normally like insta-love type books, but this one was done right. I enjoyed the pace and it was short, sweet, with just the right amount of spice. I'm glad that I rediscovered this author and her work.

Absolute little gem of a book. Short and sweet. I love silver foxes and naughty librarians. It's even better if he's a biker. Absolutely recommend this book

[Suzette]

Hot Hot Hot

This book was so good. What a great love story. One of the best biker books I have read in a long time.

[pageswithparis]

A librarian fmc and reformed biker mmc cross paths at a dirty biker bar.
From the moment their eyes met their insta-love and whirlwind romance unfolds.
This was so cute and now I think I need to read the rest of this series.

[Trisha]

Very easy read. Not horrible…but very cheesy. If you’re looking for a quick read because you have nothing else to read? Go for it. Otherwise, keep looking for the next wonderful book!

[Naiema Evans]

good starter I guess

Way too rushed, feels like it’s missing a part of the story line. love the characters but feel like we need more backstory on them

[Carlise]

Awesome story

I loved this story between Melissa and Shane. It was a nice slow build up and her friends gave us some interesting secondary characters to round out the story.

Great quick read
