Twisted and Tarnished
Hawkeye found a rival club doing something the Fallen Angels MC would not sit by and let continue. They were trafficking in women. They went in, pulled out the women and eliminated the problem. But when the victimized women turned on one of their own, Hawkeye couldn’t leave her with them.
Delilah had been given to the Royal Crows by a husband who wanted to be rid of her. She didn’t know why but they hadn’t treated her like the other women, something she would never complain about. When strangers came in pulling all the women out, she never thought she’d end the night on the back of a bike.
Now she’s at the mercy of yet another club. But were the Fallen Angels different from the Royal Crows or had she gone from the frying pan into the fire?

Saving Delilah
After being raised in a cult and then sold to a notorious MC and used as a slave it was Hawkeye and the Fallen Angels MC who finally rescued her from her tortured life. The patience that Hawkeye showed Delilah was heartwarming especially with the way Delilah looked at the world. He had so much to teach her and help her to make her own decisions.
This was a fast-paced MC romance filled with drama and tenderness and I loved the protectiveness that Hawkeye showed Delilah. I’m ready for more of the Fallen Angels MC series.

Delilah was raised in a cult and married off at thirteen. Once her husband was done with her she was sold to an MC that used and abused women. Delilah was lucky enough not to be mistreated to badly.
Hawkeye works for an MC that while not honest does not mistreat people. In the process of a rescue Hawkeye comes across Delilah.
Hawkeye feels an immediate attraction to Delilah and a need to protect her. While he doesn't fully understand his reaction at first it does not take long for him to figure it out. Knowing Delilah is nowhere near ready he takes his time with her.
This is a faced paced book with a touch of instalove. I really enjoyed this one.

Hawkeye was doing some research as he found a lot that the Fallen Angels MC needed to deal with ASAP. Now that Andy was safe with Dagger, he was hurrying it up. The Royal Crows MC were running ‘hookers,’ but these women were not willing to do this job. They were stolen, or sold by family, etc. This needed to stop and be taken down. Delilah was one of the women that were sold to the RC MC, however, she was just the cook, since she was from Jericho, as Viper, believed women from there weren’t worth anything on the streets. To keep herself safe, she slept in the pantry and avoided the other rooms. I got so angry at this part and I’m glad that Hawkeye and the guys are doing something about it. The Fallen Angels began their planning on how to deal with it all. It was Hawkeye who found and got Delilah out. Holy Hotness! lol
Finding out Delilah’s past ticked me off even more and I wanted to hit her ‘ex’ a few times. What a piece of work. Then there are some more shocking revelations about her past. It made me so upset that I ended up ranting and turning the AC on. When Delilah trusts Hawkeye enough to talk about her past, it was beautiful to see. How he handles her too, they are so sweet together and cute. It is also romantic too. When things finally got steamy, I had to put the AC on higher. lol. I love the fact that Hawkeye and his brothers, upon finding out about her past, decided to do something about it, since it is a cult and children are married to men over twice their age! Ugh. Every time she learns something that she was taught was false and how shocked she was made me want to cry or to punch something.
Even tho there are horrible things that happen in this book, the women and children who are harmed are saved in the end and good conquered evil. Each of the guys in the Fallen Angels would probably say that they are not good guys, that they have blood on their hands. True. However, I like how Delilah puts it, that angels are warriors for God. That made it beautiful. How the guys keep the women that have paired up safe, and how they bought more land to protect the HQ after Panther’s death (which still hurts), and that they are building a community to keep everyone in the MC safe and have families when it is time, is just beautiful too. I can’t wait to see what happens next and see Delilah grow into herself. I can’t wait to see what trouble she can get into with Andy & Taylynn. lol.

Twisted and Tarnished is an intense, fast-moving romance that combines danger, vulnerability, and unexpected protection within the volatile world of motorcycle clubs. The story immediately establishes high stakes when Hawkeye discovers that a rival club is trafficking women and the Fallen Angels MC decides to intervene. Amid the rescue, Delilah finds herself unexpectedly taken under Hawkeye's protection, creating a complicated dynamic between two people whose lives have been shaped by very different forms of hardship.
Delilah's circumstances give the story an emotional edge beyond its darker premise. Betrayed by a husband who essentially handed her over to the Royal Crows, she has learned to survive by accepting circumstances she cannot control. Her uncertainty about whether the Fallen Angels are genuinely different from the people who previously held power over her creates an effective layer of tension. Hawkeye, meanwhile, becomes more than simply the man who rescues her; his decision to protect Delilah places him in a position where trust, loyalty, and responsibility begin to collide.
The novel's strongest appeal is its combination of dark romance, MC culture, protective-hero dynamics, danger, and emotional recovery. Readers who enjoy gritty motorcycle-club romance, forced proximity, possessive and protective heroes, resilient heroines, and stories where trust develops under high-pressure circumstances will find plenty to engage with. At 168 pages, Twisted and Tarnished also offers a compact, high-stakes reading experience built around action, emotional tension, and the possibility of finding safety and connection in an unexpectedly dangerous world.

Delilah was sold to the Royal Crows MC by her husband to get rid of her. She became their cook as Viper did not believe she or any other woman from Jericho/the Cult had any value for other things. She is saved from her existence when the Fallen Angels MC, storm the club, after they found what they were doing with women.
Hawkeye is drawn to Delilah from the beginning, she is like a fish out of water. She does not a lot of what most people taking for granted, being sheltered for most of her life. The more he hears of her story the madder he gets on her behalf. He does not think he is a good man, giving what he has done in his life, but she thinks he is good for her. Looking forward to more from the author.

When a member of the Fallen Angels MC fall for a woman, he does so fast and hard. Hawkeye was not looking for one, but found her in Delilah. She is younger, subservient, fearful because of being brought up in a cult.
Lots of carefully stepping around each other as their relationship develops. She is afraid of being mistreated, that she treads carefully. Her past experiences do not help her move forward easily. Trust is hard to give, and Hawkeye recognises the need to earn it. His protective nature and gentle handling creates to calm she needs..save for a few hiccups and different opinions, but all is well for their future as the club begins to accept them and safety is prime.

This was a heart wrenching story leads to a fab HEA for poor Delilah. She's been raised in a cult and sold to an abusive MC. Thankfully, she's only been on kitchen duty but when she gets rescued by Hawkeye, she really is like a fish out of water. Her strength was amazing but her conditioning was tough for her to overcome. Hawkeye understood he needed to patient but he's more than clear that he's smitten with her ;) I love that there was a happy ending for them but there's definitely more to come for the club and the victims of the cult. I can't wait for the next book to see how things continue to unfold. Good fun!

This is the third book in the Fallen Angels MC and continues in the same vein as the previous books. When the Fallen Angels MC discover that a rival club is trafficking women and young girls, they devise and carry out a plan to rescue them. The rescued women don't want Delilah around as she was treated differently from them, so Hawkeye is as no choice but to keep her with him.
Thus begins the story of Hawkeye and Delilah, one is a hero and savior while the other has been programmed to be subservient to men. There are surprises, twists, and turns along the way but eventually they get their HEA.

Book 3 of the Fallen Angels MC series. Can be read as a standalone.
'Now she’s at the mercy of yet another club. But were the Fallen Angels different from the Royal Crows or had she gone from the frying pan into the fire?'
The characters were very complex and complicated and perfectly steamy together. Plot was intriguing and intense and well paced. World building continues to excel and impress. All in all a great addition to the series. Enjoyed immensely and highly recommend.
Grab a copy, kick back and enjoy!.

I don't know where to start. This is Book 3 in the Fallen Angels MC series and it's Hawkeye & Delilah's story. Delilah's "husband " gives her to the Royal Crows MC to get rid of her. The things she sees terrify her. When the Fallen Angels come and take all the women away, Hawkeye finds her away from the other women and takes her too. What ensues, is a heart breaking journey of pain, betrayal, violence and eventual healing and discovery. You have to read this to truly appreciate it.

Delilah is given to the Royal Crows MC by her husband. She was raised in a cult and now was in a MC where they are abusing and trafficking women. When Hawkeye sees her during a rescue he feels immediately protective over her. Her story is tragic and breaks your heart. She has no idea what the real world is like or how to be her own person. Hawkeye is amazingly patient and kind. This story is action packed, fast paced love story about healing and love. I can’t wait to see what happens in the next book.

I'm already loving this series, but this one right here, had me in tears at times!
Other times I was so busy rooting for Delilah and her bravery as well as willingness to let go of the past and embrace her future, that I almost glossed over how amazing, kindhearted, protective as well as soft spoken and gentle Hawkeye was in his dealings with her!
Loved watching how she gained her confidence and just fit right in, which would not have been an easy thing to do, especially with the background she's had to overcome!

Really 3.5 because it ended abruptly and with a cliffhanger. Looking at next book isn’t about the “cliffhanger “ so I’m confused. Not sure I’ll purchase such a short book and probably another cliffhanger. That is disappointing.
February 14, 2026
Delilah just wanted to keep to herself and make it thru this new and terrible life. Hawkeye wanted to keep her safe the moment he met her and just didn't know why. Now here they are trying to find there footing in a new life neither thought they would have. I would love to read more about them and this MC.
