“Fear no shadow, for your brothers stand with you.”
A president with a target on his back. A woman with a secret that could burn it all down. A club on the brink of war.
Kingston O’Rourke rules the Silver Shadows MC with an iron fist. He has spent his life building walls—around his club, his brothers, and his heart. As president of the Silver Shadows MC’s Nebraska chapter, he’s no stranger to betrayal, danger or the ghosts that haunt his past. Plagued by secrets, hunted by enemies, and tested by a war that threatens to destroy everything he loves, King must fight for his club, his brothers, his family, and the woman who holds his heart. But when the past comes calling and old wounds are ripped open, King makes a decision that will change everything.
Grace Bishop came to Diamond Creek searching for answers and revenge—about her father, her past, and the secrets her mother took to the grave. Born into a legacy of secrets and blood, she never expected to find herself in the crosshairs of a war, or in the arms of Kingston O’Rourke, the president of the Silver Shadows MC. He was danger wrapped in leather and loyalty, a man haunted by betrayal and blood. He was the only man who could help her find the truth—or destroy her in the process. Every step she takes uncovers another secret and another lie. What started out as revenge has now turned into desire and a deeply guarded secret that could shatter everything, and she must decide whether to stay and fight for a future with the one man who could break her heart—or save her soul.
As enemies close in and old secrets rise from the grave, King and the Silver Shadows find themselves forced into a deadly game of loyalty and deception. Every ally could be a traitor. Every shadow could be a threat. When violence erupts and the past comes hunting, King will risk everything to protect the woman he loves—even if it means facing enemies he never saw coming. In a world where trust is a weapon and love is a liability, survival means making the ultimate sacrifice.
The war has begun—choose your side.
King is a raw, pulse-pounding, emotional MC romance about found family, redemption, and the power of love to heal even the deepest scars. Packed with explosive twists, raw emotion, and a relentless fight for redemption, King will take you on the ride of your life.
This book takes off where Ravage (Rebecca Joyce) left us... and omg she left us with our hearts in our hands and our heads spinning. Ann takes off right from there. King is the charater you know and love. You think you know him pretty well from prior books but hold on tight. Kings relationship with Grace has finally come to a head. King was between a rock and hard place, trying to follow biker rules and his love for Grace. Grace's charater wasn't what I thought i would be. Her hard exterior attitude was hiding the hurt broken places her parents caused. Finding their way to each other and better communication ... well lets just say it's difficult, and gut renching. (Take heed of the trigger warnings!0 Now... while all this is going on.... King is the center of it ALL! Not giving anything away but you have to read this book, and you have to be up to date on past books. Don't miss this one... okay I'm leaving now to go read this one again!
God I love these guys, for such big tough Presidents, which when needed, they most definitely are, but if their not punching their adversaries in the face or arguing with each other, pointing out the obvious, they are stepping back behind the other and those are the moments that make me laugh. The long twisted rope of life that belongs to King, Reaper and Montana slowly unwinds, exposing secrets with each knot thats untangled leaving them, me and every other reader aghast with the knowledge we’ve learned, the families that are entwined, the living that were dead 😵 my head shakes, trying to take it all in. Both Ann and Rebecca have plotted a devious, twisted tale with each book they write, I imagine them planning and plotting while preparing to bring the reader to their knees and once again they have successfully brought me to mine. Both very talented at telling the story that has kept me gripped, unable to put any of the novels down once I start and once again I am salivating for more of King, Reaper and Montana. A definite page turner and very entertaining. 100% recommend this book to everyone ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ you will not be disappointed 😎🖤
I love a book where everyone is connected to everyone lmao... (not in a alabama way... just everyone's family but they didn't know)
I love how the old characters have family still coming out of the woodworks... Poor Reaper and Montana
I am curious to know what happened, who died... who's the traitor etc.
Also Darcy?? all 3 of her baby daddies being in the same room? byeeee...
Carly's cameo?? omg... I was like "What will she reveal now?"
I am here for the drama...
I want to also know if Ann & Rebecca had the whole family tree in their workspace to not get confused somewhere... not the normal one... I mean the master TREE... because for me 1st reads are always hard... but I always do a full series re-read if I have a huge gap between reading the books... the my a light bulb goes on "OMG...now I get it!!"

Wow this book like all books blow my mind. I sometimes wonder if Ann Silver is really Rebecca Joyce? Both write awesome books and they answered some questions but then more pop up.
Hear me when I say this because this is the first book of hers I have ever read this took me through the trenches with this book and I am going to say this thank you so much for that you gutted me every step of the way in this book.
So with that being said first off Sinclair mind blowing about his son right but now I want to know more also Romeo like I want the man's book like yesterday okay I need his book ASAP because the man is chef's kiss
I will forever say this I have come to Now understand that nobody is truly anyone's parents they're all just people that were put in place because the real parents couldn't be there it's just like this pattern of events you know that happens with parents making a sacrifice and not being there the same thing with no one is truly gone.
Also Grace and King they really just throw you through the ringer like full of different mixed emotions with both of them because King is so stubborn but so is Grace and you got to commend King for his like loyalty and for his like devotion to what is right and wrong within the laws of this club but you also have to come in Grace because all she's ever wanted is for someone to not leave her and for someone to choose her .
At some points of this book I wanted to shake some sense into both of them .
Also can I just say that I'm really shocked at everyone's parents and the full circle of it all and how everybody is connected I got to say there is one person that really just like I have mixed feelings on.
Next I want everybody to read the trigger warnings on this book like do not go into this blindly do not read this if you have certain triggers your mental health matters and this is not to be taken lightly at all.
But I can say that it was beautifully done.
Overall the book is amazing I would definitely reread it and I cannot wait for what's next but the ending of the book it's like an epic movie right before your eyes.
All I can say is WOW! It is highly recommended that you read at lease Ravage by Rebecca Joyce as King and Grace's story ends up continuing that storyline.
King is the President of Silver Shadows MC. He is well respected my his brothers. For 3 yrs he has been in love with Grace but wouldn't take the relationship where he wanted it.
Grace has been in love with King for 3yrs but it didn't start that way. She is the daughter of the Mother Chapter of the Silver Shadows MC and she is not his biggest fan.
King will do anything to protect Grace even walk through the fires of Hell. Grace is ready to run in the opposite direction and not look back. Can they come together and finally have the life they deserve together or will everything be ripped away.
In this book we get a glimpse of the past 3yrs of King and Grace's relationship. Then we get the continuation from Ravage's book (Rebecca Joyce). This book is full of love, hate, heartbreak and mayhem. There are a lot of things that come to light for everyone involved. If it's not one thing it is another and it has the Silver Shadows having to rely on thier allies to help with a war not of thier making.
Come along for the ride of your life but bring a box of tissues. This book will have you laughing, crying and raging at some points. It will leave you on the edge of your seats and not want to put it down. If you haven't had a chance to read any of Ann's books it is highly recommended to start from the beginning of the series. Remember some of her books do play into Rebecca Joyce's book. You can find a complete reading list on both of thier websites. Happy Reading.
“King” is an explosive, high-stakes ride from beginning to end — Ann Silver packs this book with twists, family revelations, and nonstop chaos in the best way. Just when you think you have the world figured out, more family comes out of the woodwork and every secret you thought you knew gets flipped on its head.
Trigger Warnings: while there are no direct SA scenes on the page, themes of sexual assault, trafficking, abuse, and trauma are heavily implied and carried forward from Rebecca Joyce’s Ravage. Violence, war, and darker MC content are present throughout — readers should go in prepared.
This installment is loaded with connections. Reaper, Montana, and other familiar faces weave through the story, tightening the web between the Golden Skulls MC and the Silver Shadows. War has hit, and the Shadows find themselves right in the middle of it — danger pressing in from every direction.
And the shocks keep coming: ghosts rising from the “dead,” characters we thought were long gone suddenly resurfacing, and new players ready to wreak havoc in the chaos. It’s impossible to look away.
Although “King” can technically stand alone, it truly shines when read immediately after Rebecca Joyce’s Golden Skulls installment Ravage — the continuity between both authors is seamless and impressive.
Yes, there’s a quasi-cliffhanger — but King and Grace do get a solid happy-for-now, just enough to hold us over while the war still rages.
If you love dark MC worlds with layered plots, shocking reveals, and characters who refuse to go quietly, “King” is a wild, unforgettable ride from start to finish.

King has been a long awaited, highly anticipated book! It picks up where Ravage by Rebecca Joyce left off with all of the chaos you can imagine. If there is anything that can happen, it happens in King. Every single emotion that can possibly be felt, you feel it in King. This story is one monstrous family affair! It lays out how everyone is related and what their ties are to the Silver Shadows MC, Golden Skulls MC, God's Of Mayhem MC and the Mafia. It's an absolute brilliant, intense, gritty story that from start to finish had me on the edge of my seat. Secrets, surprises, betrayals, lies, twists and turns are rampant in this story. I very adamantly suggest reading Ravage prior to reading King. These authors have without a doubt outdone themselves! The two books tell a complete story that is absolutely a must read!
Buckle up, Buttercup. King is here!! King managed to save Grace from the river, but can he help her work through the trauma from her kidnapping and subsequent assault? And as they try to figure out their new normal, there is chaos all around. Family long thought gone shows up, ghosts rise from the dead, and the skeletons are now just dancing their way out of all the closets. And there is a war coming. Who will survive? Who is ally and who is traitor? Can King, along with Reaper and Montana, figure it out in time? Heavy is the head that wears the crown. But, it's good to be King, right? All hail the King! Ann Silver keeps us on the edge of our seats throughout the whole book, and I am left breathless, with my head spinning. Questions were answered, and in true Rebbeca and Ann style, we are left with twice as many. Buckle up and hold on for the ride of a lifetime!
I loved this book!!! I've been patiently waiting for King and Grace's story and it didn't disappoint. Through all the books in the series we've been getting little hints and glimpses into what's been going on between them. Grace has had a hard life. From the moment she was born it hasn't been easy and when she decides to go looking for her father she winds up meeting King. Their story isn't an easy one. Grace goes through an awful trauma and King along with her found family do their best to help her through it. Then add in all the secrets that come out in this one and the connections that start falling into place! I enjoyed every bit of this rollercoaster, even the cliffhanger were left on! I'm anxious to see what the outcome is after the ending of this book. I'm excited and nervous for what comes next!
This book takes off where Ravage by Rebecca Joyce left off. It is highly recommended that you read Ravage first. Their shared world is addicting in the best way possible. I have been awaiting King's book, and it didn't disappoint. We have always known Grace was it for King, and we finally get to see them together. To understand the struggles of both, this book gives all the feels. All I wanted was for Grace and King to get what they needed. As well we get the information of what's going on, war is coming. Questions & Truths are answered but in true Ann and Rebecca form more were asked. All I can say is get ready you're gonna need tissues, a drink and maybe there'll be some cursing too along the way.
I can’t believe we finally got King’s book and my God, did it land with a punch! It takes off exactly where Ravage left us, right when we were still emotionally devastated, and somehow manages to hit even harder.
I absolutely loved it. There’s honestly not much more to say. As with all of Ann Silver’s books, the writing is smooth, the pacing is tight, and the emotional beats really land. Every scene feels intentional, and the intensity never lets up.
But that ending… WHAT. THE. HELL. 😭 Ann and Rebecca are known for leaving those little snippets at the end of their books that keep us hanging until the next release, but this one is the worst (and best) yet. I genuinely cannot imagine how the next book will even begin, but you better believe I’ll be hanging on desperately until it does.
This book wrecked me! I’m emotionally drained as this was an emotional, gritty, intense read. It is packed with danger, secrets, loyalty, and forbidden desire. King is a powerful, broken leader you will love and want to scream at, while Grace’s story will completely gut you and steal your heart. I cried, laughed and held my breath more times than I can count. Have tissues ready - and clear your schedule - because once you start, there is no way you will be able to put this down! I absolutely highly recommend. You must red Ravage by Rebecca Joyce first as these books intertwine.
King the Silver Shadows MC President has been in love with Grace for 3 years but refuses to claim her. Grace loves to hate King.
The air in Diamond Creek is becoming thick with sinister threats, suspicions, tensions and rivalry as long lost family and ghosts converge at the Silver Shadows clubhouse. War is coming.
I was hooked from the very first page, it’s dark and gritty with layer upon layer of treachery, betrayals, anguish and shocking revelations. I can’t wait patiently enough for the story to continue.
This very long awaited book is finally here! King picks up from where we left off at the end of Ravage. It started off a little slow for me with it basically doing a retelling of the previous events from prior books. Once it got going, I couldn’t put it down. There is so many twists to this story. I felt like i was watching an episode of Maury waiting for him to declare “you are/not the father”. That last chapter completely blew me away. I need to know what is going to happen next. Way to keep us readers on our toes. Anyway, King was amazing and I completely recommend reading.
Holy freaking Nora heck! The book we have all been waiting for! What it all that is holy did I just read. The Chaos, the twists and turns. God I love this series running in with Rebecca Joyce's stories. King pops back and forth between the whole time Grace and King have been tiptoeing around each other and follows on from Ravage. The twisted story that these 2 authors read and the last 10 chapters starting new stories lines while weaving in old ones and the cliff hangers don't get me started on those freaking things!! I loved this and as usual I am sitting on the edge of my seat waiting for the next one!
Picking up from the end of Rebecca Joyce’s Ravage, King had me on the edge of my seat all the way through. Some questions I have had a while were answered, I learnt things I didn’t even know I needed to know and by the end I had a whole load more questions. Talking of the end, OMG!!!! I spent pages screaming in my head WTF, NOOOO, oh hell no and, well you get the gist. I was shell shocked and needed a lie down under the safety of my duvet. I can’t wait to do it again with the next book
OMG!!! BUCKLE UP BABY!! This was one HELL of a ride!!! I love how King FINALLY got his head out of his butt and Grace making him work for it and being the strong woman she is. BUT OH MY GOD THE TWISTS AND TURN IN THIS BOOK! Im going to say anything else even though I want to because you have to read it to know. WHY?! JUST WHY ANN?!?! HIGHLY RECOMMEND READING THIS
This book continues were Ravage (Rebecca Joyce) left off and boi are we in for more twists shocks, and more, this is King and Graces story we see them meet and learn just who the other is and how they go forward but nothings smooth sailing with their pasts entiwined and trouble coming for the clubs who will make it out alive? Well written engaging steamy high suspense drama twists and more!
I don't think there are words to describe this book. ups down twist serects heartbreak yet moments of joy ann silver did an amazing job the way the book is written keeps you wanting the book to never end how she has teamed up with rebecca joyce to create this world is just amazing
This series always keeps you on your toes. Going back to this gritty world after being gone for a bit was like immersing yourself in an ice bath then heading to the sauna. There is so much drama but also family and some sweet moments. Please be warned the triggers are real in this particular book she puts up a warning ahead of the chapter so skip if needed.
I love these books of Ann Silver and Rebecca Joyce but they aren't for the faint of heart. So many threads left untied who lived or died. Or who will come back from the dead😅. Please authors write quickly but take care of yourselves as I don't think you can come back from the dead like your characters. We will wait impatiently for the next book. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
The eagerly anticipated book about our beloved Grace and King. Ann did not disappoint with this book. This book works in conjunction with Rebecca Joyce books and is best read in order to fully understand and appreciate this one. The road to love has been hard for King and Grace, he wants to keep everything a secret,she doesn’t, everyone already knows they love each other. Grace is searching for her bio dad and King is ruling his MC. This book is packed with action,secrets, wars,tragedy,trauma and love. The end will have you gasping for air and trying to figure out what exactly happened not just with Ann’s characters but also Rebecca’s. I highly recommend this book,series and author to everyone ❤️🖤
This book was everything you would expect from an MC read and more Loved finally getting to read King & Grace’s story and it didn’t disappoint it had it all heartbreaking at times and hard to read and lots of angst , can’t wait to see what happens next and who survived
This series has been a lot to follow with too many characters and clubs. This book has people coming back from the dead and the need for a diagram to keep everything straight. The story got lost in complexity.
