Vortex
Aurora-Victoria’s fire falling from the sky prophecy finally comes true. And it lands right in the Unwanted Bastards’ lap. A call in the middle of the night will change lives forever, especially that of an Unwanted Bastard brother. Disgruntled at being woken and not believing in visions, none-the-less he does his duty and alerts his MC, only to witness one of the biggest disasters ever.
She survived along with seven others and didn’t know how. Over two hundred people died that night, and she walked away with a few scratches and a bruise. But not everything is as it seems. The National Transportation Safety Board doesn't believe it was an accident. Had she seen something that might prove vital to their investigation? With multiple agencies wanting to talk to her, she was overwhelmed, lost, and more than a little scared.
He’d found her wandering, frightened, alone, and shocked in the aftermath. Overnight, he became her saviour; she was his to care for. Anyone wanting to get at her had to go through him. She wasn’t fragile, maybe a little unsteady, and who could blame her? She was brave and strong, perfect for an Unwanted Bastards old lady.
The events aren’t over. Aurora-Victoria has further visions, and they pertain to his woman. He takes the warnings seriously. Death is stalking his woman, and she escaped the Grim Reaper once. For her, he’d fight death himself. With multiple theories about the crash swirling around them and confusion over who’s trying to take his future old lady, an Unwanted Bastard is in for the fight of his life. He’d found her, he claimed her; she was his and no one else’s

Another strong entry in the Unwanted Bastards series, VORTEX is an excellent read. The romance between Vortex and Amy was a slow burn as far as heat goes, but as far as the love goes, it’s fast moving but the bond between the two is deep, even though it started off as trauma bonding. Both characters are likable- all the MC characters are. There is a depth of character throughout that is impressive considering some of those characters have limited page time.
Speaking of impressive, the plot with the zeppelin and the resulting suspense story are engaging and the whole zeppelin concept is very creative. There was a deep pathos to the tragedy that is sensitively written.
Harris’s world-building skills are among the very best I’ve read for contemporary romance. There are interconnected characters and a history that is complex, but unlike many books with such, it never becomes unwieldy. I was particularly interested in Onyx and his crew and I hope their series appears soon. Despite all of the history that comes before this story, it is not a cumbersome read. In fact, you don’t have to commit to reading all of the books set in this world (although you will want to). Information is disseminated subtly and you could read this book as a standalone should you prefer.
I have been particularly enjoying the rehabilitation of the ghost town.
Bottom line is, this book is a must read. It was engaging and I resented every outside interruption while I was immersed in it.
Cat’s Stats
Heat- slow burn, explicit.
Bechdel test- passed
Safety- Y
Triggers- violence, language, death of children
Tropes- crash and burn, Final Destination, Instalove p, stalker, damsel in distress.

This is Book 2 in the Unwanted Bastards MC. We’ve met Aurora-Victoria in other books, and she’s been telling about fire falling from the sky. This is the book where we find out exactly what she’s talking about. The MC is right in the middle of it whether they want to be or not. I have to say this was a terrific book and the events happening in it made me cry. We have Vortex meeting Amy who was one of nine survivors of the fire falling from the sky. And that’s just the beginning of an eventful time. Aurora-Victoria has more visions that will surprise you. Amy is awesome and Vortex is fighting with everything he must do to keep her safe. I’ve always loved the Unwanted Bastards, and this book just reminds us of the strength that they all have as they survive together. I can’t wait to read about the other members of the Club.

This MC is still feeling the issues of the past, long past and recent past. By the end of the book, they seem to be finding their stride more and becoming more of what the ideal should be with all of them. It's nice to see.
The opening to this one was so crazy and horrific, from the call of what was to happen, to them seeing it happen in real time, to doing what they could to help, to the aftermath of picking up the pieces and dealing with one lunatic. Throw in a crazy ex's of Vortex and there was so much drama you hardly knew what was going to happen next.
I did like how things ended for Vortex and Amy, it was hard fought for them, but they deserved all the happiness they found and I loved seeing them build their family and the MC thrive now that the town is open.

Vortex sucks you in and doesn't let go! Outstanding trip.
Wow, where to start because let me tell you this book is a journey. I loved all the returning characters, like old friends, they are important. Touching base with important issues and a budding love story this tale is like a ride you don't want to get off. Elizabeth, loves her readers and we think she is something special. We will read and support your characters always. Back to Vortex, please check this out. Some bumps in the road occasionally with editing but these can be over look! The story is epic, in more ways than one. Five stars from me and a must read. Peace out.

Vortex and Amy
I don’t know how this author can write such awesome books, filled with out of world stories , where do you start writing and explaining how much tragedy, loss, but also find hope at the same time. In every book Elizabeth Harris has written. Vortex hearing the reason why he was gone , came back , finding Amy to a whole lotta of action, emotions, laughing moments. Amy I knew we were getting another strong female with lots of drama and excitement the twists, new characters, old characters, and did you read the end ? Loved every chapter written. Until the next one.

Another 10 out of 10 score for Elizabeth, such a brilliant storyteller, I have loved everything she has written, so awesome. Aurora-Victoria is kept on her toes with the ever encroaching visions of prophecies to come. The Unwanted Bastards MC are smack in the middle of more drama and danger. I absolutely loved Vortex and Amy’s story ❤️❤️❤️ They are thrown together by the prophecies and are both instantly intrigued. A definite page turner and very entertaining. 100% recommend this book to everyone ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ you will not be disappointed 😎🖤

Humans were not ment to fly
Vortex has his own drama that comes to light, making his life a bit hectic but worth living.
Amy lost her job, went on a new flight but the landing wasn't what was advertised.
Ghosts from the past are finding their way into the present. Anger, blame, heartache, and blood, all come to the surface again. Fortunately, there are many glimpses into a very bright and loving future for both Vortex and Amy. Only question is, Are they strong enough to make it through another tragedy?

Vortex is book 2 in the Unwanted Bastards MC series. This story incredible! It has a bit of everything. This author never fails to bring a story that pulls you in so completely that putting it down is impossible and waiting for the next book is torture. Vortex and the rest of the Unwanted Bastards definitely have their hands full when Aurora's vision turns their town upside down. Tragedy, turmoil, lots of angst, twists and turns take us on a journey that'll not
be soon forgotten! Well done!

Vortex's story FINALLY clears up one of Aurora's vision as it comes to life and it was a doozy! Loved getting to know Vortex, his back story and meeting Amy. Lots of ups and downs as per normal with Elizabeth's books but the HEA we know and love was there. While they have a "meet cute" if you can call it that, very MC style ;), they take the time to get to know each other before jumping in. Really enjoyed this book and look forward to more.

The next installment in the Unwanted Bastards is here. In this story, we get to experience the story of Vortex and Amy, and this story has it all. A vision by Aurora-Victoria, action, tragedy, survivors, babies, surprise parental visits, and one very well-delivered comment from Phoe. You never want to miss a book by Elizabeth N. Harris, but this one definitely lives up to what the Unwanted Bastards deserve.

Vortex by Elizabeth N. Harris
This is the second book after the war where only 3 members of the Unwanted Bastards were left alive. This is Vortex and Amy’s story. Amy was a survivor of a Zeppelin bombing. Someone was after the survivors but no one knew who. Vortex found Amy after witnessing the crash and Amy clung to him. This story has angst, mystery and romance. Great book as the have their HEA for now.

One call changed everything for Vortex and the club when they come to the aid of an inncedent that left hundreds dead and only a survivors one of those being Amy, but with enemies and invistigators closing in, will Amy hold the key? Will Aurora-Victorias visions come true? Well written the story and characters draw you in with fast paced action suspense filled drama and more

Damn that was 2 funny in sum spots!! Lol but also really sad 4 alot of it 2. Vortex and the rest went 2 help with a really bad scene and literally walked into amy. Can it get anymore crazy and dangerous? His ex was really screwing things up 4 him. Can they find out who is behind this and why? It was really good but intense in sum spots. I loved it.

Another showstopper
This was quite tragic from the beginning. Amy was an absolute trooper and no surprise she clung to Vortex. It was sad in so many places, but there was a lot of humour too. I’m concerned about Drake, he’s taken these events too hard. Waiting eagerly for the next one.

Fabulous
Vortex and Amy were great. I've always loved the Unwanted Bastards. Inglorious story was sad and a rebuilding while this one was sad in a different manner but lighthearted. It was nice to see them grow and not be in perpetual mourning.
Amy is one of the best characters. Her strength knows no bounds.

It's sad they keep having problems and the news release didn't help Drake with his emotions over what happened during the war with Fury. Nothing will ever be the same. There were places in this story that had me laughing. With everything going on we need some laughs. HEA until next time.

Vortex & Amy
Another amazing story by the Author. I loved how the stories always involve characters from the other series. Amy is an amazingly strong woman who despite the circumstances find her HEA with Vortex.

Though this is a story filled with action, prophecies and banter, the red thread continues to be a club hurt to the core finding the way to rise again, with the help of their allies and strong old ladies while expanding it with family and love.
