3.5 stars! I wanted to rate it higher but I have a few issues with the book! Firstly I do think it would be great if an editor can do another round of edits on the book to clean up some errors and grammar issues.

Also, what happened to her job? After she was hit by Zeke in the car parking lot and spoke to her manager that was the last she went to work? So what happened there?
Also, why were there no cops? How did he get away with murdering his parents? And why did he murder his parents? (He said they choose storm over him, but in the book storm hasn’t met his parents so I don’t understand?) also I don’t understand the whole concept of zeke putting those intimate photos on the wall of storm as well as the other photos of the other girls he abused? It doesn’t make sense that he would incriminate himself that way?
Why were no authorities called when it was the final showdown between storm and zeke? There were shots fired but no cops? That’s super unrealistic. He also would have been in jail due to his parents murder and his abuse of the other girls?

Overall I really enjoyed the relationships and dynamics between the characters. The family is crazy but I actually really love it! I love Drix! Although I’m upset that he kissed her while she was dating another man, but oh well..also he is a pos…he hooked up with another woman 🙄 ewww (I’m talking about zeke - did he expect storm to forgive him after he crossed THAT boundary??) 😬

[Off Reading Somewhere · Rating 2.5 out of 5]

Decent plot, ok characters, atrocious editing.

Thoughts on this….

• Star wasn’t as annoying as in the original series, but she was definitely still irritating and trying too hard.
• I don’t like the name Storm, but it was fun to see the next generation interact and the OGs be just as crazy as ever.
• This had a tad too much angst for me (maybe I just wasn’t in the mood) but the back and forth between Drix and Storm got taxing after a while. I get it, sort of, but also like you’ve both been in love with the other your whole lives so why did it take til now to admit it or even kiss, and also why is it now so hard to admit your feelings?
• Hendrix yearns with the best of them and I was here for it.
• Zeke was a POS, and a decent villain. However, his storyline made little sense and nothing was ever explained about him. Was he just crazy? A serial killer? An obsessed stalker? Was he interested in Storm because of her connected to the MC, or did his obsession with the MC come from dating Storm? How was he not arrested before now? So many questions.
• Tons of loose ends and/or plot holes: what happened with Storm’s job? Did she just call out sick or quit or what? Why did Zeke put the photos of Storm on the wall of his parent’s house? Why keep photos of patients he abused? And what happened after those were discovered? He mentions losing his job but he wasn’t arrested? And why wasn’t he arrested for murdering his parents? The cops played zero role in this one which was unrealistic.
• Some things felt surface level, and I would have liked the relationship between Drix and Storm to have even more depth. We don’t get any sweet memories until the very end, one of the best things about childhood friends to lovers.
• Storm was a slightly less annoying version of her mother, Star.
• The plot was interesting, the action decently tense and had me turning pages, the HEA sweet, and the lead in to book two (Enzo and Maisy) was intriguing —> though Enzo seems like a real a-hole who likely won’t be likable, and poor Maisy is sweet and quiet, so that story is shaping up to be a doozy 🥴

The real travesty of this whole thing?? The editing was absolutely atrocious. It was a literal joke. Forget about the repeated phrasing throughout, which was often enough to be noticeable and jarring; but the lack of editing was down right disrespectful. Missing words, misspelled words, tense changes, wrong pronouns used, added words incorrectly… the list goes on. It’s as if no one read through this book, ever. This is an ongoing issue with this author, but this may be the worst I’ve read from her in terms of editing mistakes. They happen every page, multiple times. I almost DNF. I felt like I was being punked. I don’t think I’ll continue or read anymore from her as this was just a slap in the face to her readers.

I wanted to give it 2⭐️ for the editing but settled on 3 because the action was good and Hendrix was sweet.

[ThEAnGrYrEaDeR55 · Rating 3 out of 5]

This was a solid 3-star read for me. I enjoyed the MC family dynamics, the action kept me turning the pages, and I really liked Drix/Hendrix. But there were enough issues that I just couldn't rate it higher.

This is a second-generation continuation of the original MC series. I apparently read some of the original books years ago because Amazon told me so 😂, but I remembered basically nothing. The family is still completely crazy, though, and I actually enjoyed that part a lot. These first two up are Stormy x Hendrix (Drix). They've "danced around" each other all their lives (she's 24, not sure if it gives his age but very close to hers).

I liked Storm well enough, although she was definitely still irritating at times. Her relationship with Drix had SO much potential. Childhood friends-to-lovers is one of my favorite tropes, and I wanted more of their history and those sweet little moments that show why they've loved each other forever. Instead, we got a whole lot of yearning and angst and assumptions.

And then there was Zeke.

He starts out as the nice doctor boyfriend and slowly reveals himself to be a controlling, abusive POS. Storm's storyline with him was honestly hard to read at times, especially watching her cover for him, blame herself, and worry more about his career than her own safety. The abuse itself was handled in a way that felt sadly believable, even though some of the surrounding plot absolutely wasn't.

Because once we get to the second half, Zeke apparently goes from abusive surgeon to full-blown homicidal psychopath and... I had QUESTIONS.

Why did he murder his parents? Why was he obsessed with Storm? Why was he obsessed with Ghost? Why did he have all those photos of Storm and the other women he'd abused? Why wasn't he arrested for his parents' murders? Why were there basically NO COPS involved in any of this?! There are multiple murders, shootings, assaults, kidnappings, and somehow law enforcement is just... absent.

There were also smaller plot holes that drove me nuts. What happened to Storm's nursing job? Why did Zeke's whole obsession with the MC never really get explained? And some of the final showdown logic made absolutely no sense.

Also, the editing. 😬

This book desperately needed another round of editing. Missing words, wrong words, misspellings, incorrect pronouns, tense changes, repeated phrases... it was happening constantly. There were times I was so distracted by the errors that I almost DNF'd.

One other thing that made me laugh: the author's obsession with reminding us how hot Storm's parents still are. I understand wanting to show that the OG couple is still obsessed with each other, but I really did not need quite so many descriptions of Mom's breasts, ass, sex life, etc. 😂 And them basically dry humping/making out outside the club while everyone—including Storm's new boyfriend—is standing around was... a choice.

Still, I enjoyed the crazy family, the action, and Drix. I also liked that Storm ultimately saves herself during the final confrontation. And the setup for Enzo and Maisy's book definitely has me curious, although Enzo already seems like he's going to be a giant asshole and poor Maisy is in for it. 🥴

Ultimately, I just wanted more Storm + Drix and less Zeke. The romance had so much potential, and I think more of their actual history and relationship would have made this a much stronger book.

3 stars for me. Good enough to keep me reading, but the plot holes and absolutely atrocious editing held it back.

I always get excited an LG Campbell book lands on my kindle and Storms Deliverance was no exception. From the first page to the last I was hooked and absolutely devoured it in a matter of hours. For me it was no surprise that this was a five star read. I have been so excited for this series, I absolutely loved the original Black Hearts series. Make sure you read the ‘Note to the Reader’ as it contains trigger warnings you may find useful.

This is the first book in the Black Hearts MC Next Gen series and is Storm and Hendrix’s story. Storm is the club’s princess, she’s the daughter of the Club President Ghost and Star. Hendrix is the son of another original club member. They’ve grown up together and Hendrix, even though he’s loved her all his life, has always known that as the daughter of the pres she is absolutely ‘off limits’. Storm is trying to forge a life outside of the club with her job and boyfriend Zeke, who turns out to be evil incarnate. But after a traumatic event, Hendrix is there for her in every way that counts.

I loved Storm and Drix together. The chemistry between them is hot from the very first page they share together. They are so good together. I was cheering from the sidelines when Drix finally manned up, made his move and finally made Storm his. Storm is definitely her mother’s daughter and even though the traumatic events of the book affect her, I loved how Drix and her family help her to find her spark again.

On a side note I loved being back with the original characters that make the Black Hearts so so good. Star will always be my favourite FMC and I adored seeing her still being her funny, fiesty, sarcastic self and of course her penchant for troublemaking and rallying the ol’ ladies. She’s definitely the reason Ghost has grey hair.

Overall a fantastic rollercoaster of a read packed with all the action, angst, heartbreak and the authors trademark dark humour you need. I simply cannot wait for the next in the series.

[Ivonne Santiago-Harris · Rating 5 out of 5]

5 ⭐️ There is no surprise this was a five star read , LG Campbell never disappoints as she sets off the second generation of the black hearts mc series . This first book follows the daughter of the president , storm as she takes her life head on and faces unfortunate events .

Storm all grown up decides to move out with her new boyfriend Zeke. A well known surgeon at the hospital she works for, and a plain Jane for comparisons. Until Hendrix , the son of another black hearts member and her life long best friend kisses her . Revealing the ugly truth that zeke so happily hid. Once the mask has fallen storm finds out just how far Zekes evil intentions are whiling to go.

Hendrix is left to piece back together the person storm used to be , the boy who’s loved her since they were kids finally gets his chance at love and a HEA. This story is perfectly placed and picked up as the next gen , we get all the parts we loved from our original characters portrayed in their children . There is that instant connection we saw with storm and Hendrix as children but all grown up. The same craziness from ghost and star, the psycho tendencies from rage and the blundering mix ups from Dixie .

There was a lot of action and tension , followed by laughable moments and a roller coaster of emotions . I can’t wait to read Enzo’s book next and get more of all the characters I adore .

I really enjoyed getting to see the next generation of the Black Hearts family! Storm is all grown up and ready to start her own life with her boyfriend, Zeke, a surgeon at the hospital where she works. But when her childhood best friend Hendrix kisses her and exposes the truth about Zeke, everything starts unraveling. What follows is a lot of chaos, danger, and Hendrix trying to help Storm find herself again while finally getting his chance with the girl he's loved since they were kids.

I loved seeing little pieces of the original characters in their kids. You get the same craziness, questionable decisions, humor, and overall chaos that made the first generation so much fun. Storm and Hendrix's connection was especially sweet, and I loved watching their childhood bond turn into something more.

There was plenty of action, tension, humor, and emotional moments to keep things moving, and I flew through it.

My biggest complaint was the editing. There were quite a few errors that really could have used another round of proofreading, and I was also left wondering what happened with Storm's job because she apparently never went back. 😅

Still, I had a lot of fun with this one, and I'm definitely looking forward to Enzo and Maisey's story and getting more of this crazy family! Looks like we will be calling Enzo "Daddy".

[Aaliyah · Rating 2 out of 5]

She honestly annoyed me because, in the beginning, she was pretending that she did not like him and insisting that she was in love with her boyfriend, who was clearly a psycho. Then he kissed her, and she kissed him back. Regardless of the circumstances, that was still cheating. There were already many red flags surrounding her boyfriend at that point, even though she did not fully recognize them yet.

What I really did not understand, however, was why she stayed after he witnessed them kissing and hurt her. She continued to stay with him, even when his behavior became increasingly abusive. He hit her again, and she tried to hide what was happening. I also did not understand why everyone kept describing her as being “badass like her mother,” when, in reality, that did not seem to reflect her actions at that point.

The biggest issue for me was how drastically her feelings changed. At first, she seemed completely uninterested in him, but later it became obvious that she had developed genuine feelings for him. The transition felt very sudden, almost like a complete 360-degree change. At certain points, it even felt as though he was simply a rebound rather than someone she had genuinely fallen in love with. The book did have some good parts. Especially when we see the parents and the friendship and the love keep going. That was good to see it.

DNF @17%. You can see where this one is going and I wasn’t interested enough in the characters to get there. Storm is a pediatric nurse, in love with a doctor who is never going to fit into her MC family. He’s rightfully weirded out by her parents (Ghost and Star) making out while her mom climbs the dad like a tree. This is his first time meeting them and yet when he comments about it Storm gets defensive - “Your mom has just wrapped her legs around your dad’s waist, and they’re making out. Like erotically,” he murmurs. I don’t bother looking around and just shrug. “They always do that. They love each other,” I say, waving it off. He frowns, looking at me. “I just saw your mom’s side boob,” he states, as though I’m insane. I sigh. “Look, it’s not like they are fucking right in front of you. They’re passionate..”. Oh, okay, so he’s the dull square.

Whatever, she’ll end up with Drix and the square doctor will turn into a baddie, but honestly, her parents were trashy in their book, so I guess they stayed true to form. Earlier in this book, her mom and dad got into a discussion about giving head to one another, in front of Storm and her brother. Her brother had his sex partner come down the stairs in the family home moments later. Pure class.🫩

3.5 stars 🌟

It’s great to be back with the Black Hearts MC and it’s even better to get to meet the next generation.
Storm and Hendrix are up first, the daughter of President Ghost and the son of Cash.
I really liked both of these characters, I loved the history they had, though I would have liked more back story of them together as friends, significant moments that cemented their connection together and really showed how much and why they loved each other, how their bond grew.
I was a little disappointed with the development of Zeke and Storm’s story, I was sad he saw what she did and that triggered him, I feel it would have been better if she hadn’t done anything…I also feel the timeline should have been longer and the build up slower within their relationship. It all seemed a bit rushed.
In fact the whole story felt a bit rushed in places.
It’s good to see all the old favourites but I feel we need more of the new gen causing their own kind of trouble and getting into their own scrapes and silliness! Surely a group of biker kids would be up to all sorts of hi-jinx!!

I’m looking forward to Maisey finally giving Enzo a piece of her own mind next!

[Nicole Gooderson · Rating 5 out of 5]

Another amazeballs read from LG Campbell. This book is the second generation of her famous Black Hearts MC. I really felt for Storm. She is definitely her mother’s daughter, but at the same time she is not. It was great to see her unique feisty side, she was her own person and you really got to see some of her struggles. Drix is funny and super protective and is always nearby seeing what she doesn’t. IT aka Zeke lol was a total douche and so not worthy of Storm. I loved how you got to meet the old characters as well as the new ones (children) I’m dying to know more about Enzo. I don’t want to say much more about the book as I don’t want to accidentally give spoilers away, but you won’t be disappointed, you get all the feels with storm as well as the other characters and snippets of their relationships, almost as if you’re there with them. Loved it.

Great start to the next Generation!

I devoured the original series in a week so was delighted to get the next generation. I read this in one sitting and did not put it down.
I loved Hendrix aka Drix, he has loved Storm his whole life and waited for her to catch up.
Storm obviously had to go through a bad situation before they get there, but once they did it was explosive.
I was 11% in when Rage started with his unconscious comedian patter, he lights up the scenes every time.
Looking forward to book 2 which would appear to be Enzo and Maisie,that feels like it may be an emotional book!
Again with previous books, more attention to proofreading and editing would have benefited the book.

Oh my god, this book was an epic read from beginning to end and I found it very difficult to put down one I had started it. The characters in this book were brilliantly put together and has a very intriguing storyline to go with the characters. L. G Campbell is a fantastic author and I would recommend this author to anyone.

[Gemma Kitchen · Rating 5 out of 5]

I absolutely loved LG Campbell’s Black Hearts series so when the first book of the next gen series released, I jumped on it. Let me tell you that LG Campbell nailed this first book in this series. This story brings us all the classic angst, action, heartbreak and humour that this author delivers time and time again.

This is the story of Storm the club princess and Hendrix. The chemistry is evident between Storm and Hendrix so what could be wrong, but the problem lies in the fact that Storm is with someone else. Someone that doesnt fit with the club and those boys of the club don’t quite feel this guy is right. Storm is Ghost and Star’s daughter she is a strong woman in her own right, she is a Black heart Princess and with who her parent are she should take no sh!t. But reality tells a different story, a story that she keeps secret until it brings her down, it tears her down, then her family are her back, Hendrix is at her back.

This story brings us the characters we loved in Black Hearts with the same crazy tendencies and then the kids all grown up.

Cant wait for Enzo’s book next which is going to be explosive.

Another great read by L.G. Campbell! I absolutely loved getting to know all the kids and seeing their personalities shine.







I especially loved that Storm was written as such a strong, resilient woman while still realistically showing the lasting effects and struggles of DV
It was also so good seeing the OG crew again! Ghost, Star, and Rage being so protective of Storm was everything. ❤️ I’m loving this next generation and cannot wait to read all of their stories. I’m especially looking forward to Enzo’s book—and I’m really hoping we get Maisey’s story too!
I’m already impatient for the next one! 🔥📚

Omg what a ride! If we thought the OG’s had action, drama, Star and all ol’ladies plus more information and too much tmi lol then you are going to love this is a great start to the next generation series. Man freaking Zeke what a butt head and did you see the red flags in the beginning ? And what is wrong with all the alpha males really they make it hard on themselves. Don’t get me wrong the girls are great too. I can’t wait for the book. But if you haven’t read Ghost first go back that’s Storm’s mom and dad . Everything will fall into place. Loved it !

Storm’s Deliverance is Storm and Hendrix’s story. I am so excited to continue this series I absolutely LOVED the black hearts mc series and when I found out there was going to be a second generation I could not freaking wait! Storm has a boyfriend Zeke who turns out to be absolute SCUM. And then there is Hendrix who has always considered Storm as his as they grew up together who FINALLY makes his move and makes her his. I can’t wait for the next book.

I absolutely loved The Black Heart MC series! Now here we go with the 2nd Generation and I am absolutely here for it!

Storm is definitely her mother's daughter. I loved seeing their relationship and the love they have for eachother and the MC family.

A HOTT MESS

This one needs an editor IMMEDIATELY….. I maybe could have looked over some of it if this was her first book or whatever but from the looks of things she’s been at this a while… the story had great potential it’s just an absolute mess…. I literally lost count of the edits needed …. It was my first book by this author and will likely be my last…. I almost DNF more than once but I hate not finishing

New Gen 🤪🤪🤪

So this is the ‘kids’ of the members of The Black Hearts MC 👌👌👌👌

Storm ‘BB’ is Ghost & Stars daughter, shes grown up in the ‘biker’ family, but her beau is a ‘normal’ person……

Hendrix ‘Drix’ is the son of Cash & Maggie, he’s deep emotionally, but for only one person……will he ever get the one he wants????

Absolutely LOVED the whole story, the interaction with the whole club and again with my main man Rage 😜😜😜

Club Princess Storm is the daughter of Ghost and Star, she and Hendrix have grown up together and have kept a healthy distance because she is off limits. Storm has kept her boyfriend under the club radar so far, but the time has come to introduce him to her whole family. It’s not long before cracks begin to appear and take a nasty turn.

This is a book I read in one sitting. It’s full of trauma, angst, danger, tension and Black Hearts MC humour and shenanigans.

I adored the original Black Hearts series and didn’t think the 2nd generation series could be as good, how wrong I was. I loved every page with my favourite characters as their grown children take centre stage. I can’t wait to see what Lauren has in store with the next book.

This was an amazing story but my god the editor needs to be given a talking to. There was many, many errors. Sometimes there would be condos going on and we have no idea whose actually speaking.
