In running to the MC’s President for protection, I might have signed his death warrant…

When the Riders took me in, I thought I’d finally found somewhere I belonged.
I should have known better.
I threw a hand grenade into their structured hierarchy as I rebelled against my strict upbringing, and found myself falling for more than one of the hardened bikers.
Ace with his soft heart and wild ways. Rook my friend, and so much more. Even Ghost, the distant, mysterious one. We became entangled in each other, and now we can’t stop.
Yet, I still can’t fully break through to the one man I ache for. Jack McGrath; their President, and my best friend’s father. His gaze burns for me, but he holds me at arm’s length, refusing to give in to the connection between us, no matter what it costs.
As I finally begin to break down the walls around his heart, tragedy strikes. My enemies resurface, and this time, they aren’t only hunting me.
The people who want me are coming for the Riders…
And aiming straight for the men I love.

Don't miss out on the final book in the Verona Falls Riders trilogy! Have you met the rest of the Verona Falls gang yet? The Devils, the Vipers, and the Preachers are ready to make your acquaintance...

A great conclusion to the series! I’ve been waiting for the third book since the cliffhanger in book two. This one picks up at the point that book two left us and we find out who ambushed the ride out, injured Jack & took Ghost.

With Jack being injured and in hospital he has to learn to trust his brothers to get Ghost back and keep Camille safe. Ghost has to use all his past training and experience to navigate his precarious situation and find a way to potentially escape. Rook steps up to take control over the club members that are left and put a plan in place to rescue Ghost and deal with the cartel that’s after Camille. Whilst Ace has taken up her protection detail.

Meanwhile Camille is coming to the realisation that she is in love with all four of her guys and can’t lose any of them in the fight they’re facing. Her relationship with Ace, Rook and Ghost is progressing she just needs to convince Jack to overcome his reservations and embrace the pull they feel towards one another. She also hopes that she can mend her friendship with Vani (Jack’s daughter from the Vipers trilogy) and that Vani can learn to accept her relationship with Jack.

And the spice 😮‍💨 it was spicing in this book! The group scenes 🥵😮‍💨 spiciest nsfw scenes I’ve read in a long time! Marissa and Skye sure do know how to write the spiciest spice, why choose indeed 👀

I loved ace, and definitely think he’s my favourite of the guys, his chaotic, lovable nature just won me over completely and the animal rescues just added to that! But I also loved all the other guys, each one brought their own distinct personality to the group and balanced each other out perfectly!

The introduction into the next series at the end of the book was great, I can’t wait to find out what the convicts get up to 👀😍

A must read for any why choose, motorcycle club, age gap romance lover who likes not just one possessive, obsessive mmc but four!.

I've enjoyed this series immensely. I have found it well-written, funny, and steamy.

I think my favourite character is Ace, chaos personified, but with a heart of pure gold. He has violence within him, but only to those who deserve it; otherwise, he wears his heart on his sleeve.

Rook, who is a prospect, also has a soft heart and feels that he may not be worthy in some of the other men's eyes when it comes to Camille. Will his Prez make Camille choose between them, and will he be the one to lose the one he loves? But over time, Rook comes into his own; he shows that he can stand firm, make and follow orders, which will help bring down the threat to their club.

Ghost's specialist skill set comes to the fore. He needs to find a way to alert his club of the threat against them, at the same time saving himself. His military background stands him in good stead to act instead of react.

Jack has to trust his brothers while he is nonoperational. This is hard for him, and he has always led from the front. He realises he needs to let Camille know how he feels. His brush with death has rearranged his priorities. He also needs to look into himself to see if he can be the man Camille needs; can he share her with the others?

Camille knows that she loves all four men; she can't lose any of them. But they have to realise also that this is her life; she has to have her say over what happens. She feels guilty that she has brought all of this grief to their doorstep, but she isn't willing to hide any longer. She needs to face the man who is trying to eliminate her family.

I now have to read the other series, which covers Camille's three friends, one of whom is Jack's daughter Vani, and the other two are Mackenzie and Ophelia. If they are half as good as this one, I will be happy.

WOW JUST WOW…….ACE IS MY FAVORITE

My only complaint is we don’t get an epilogue that gives us a picture of years down the road. We have to be invested in waiting for each book and spaced out over 3 books. Which in each set is glorious, but once all the drama, angst, trauma, violence and death has finished I wanted to get looking glass into the future such as babies and where everyone is at.

I guess Camila is going to wait until Jack is 80, before she decides to have this big family she claims she wants, but her actions are saying something else entirely.

She claimed she wanted marriage, true love and a lot of kids. All her men are older, and not spring chickens. And it appeared they were ready after their wedding, it just seemed a little dishonest. If she wanted to wait a few years to have kids, then she should have only married Ace and Rook. But I believe the younger you have your kids the better. You have more energy and patience for nonsense.

I was married as soon as I turned 18, my 1st son was born 5 months later. I knew I wanted a bunch of kids, I was bounced around in foster care from the time I was born and had no one, I had 5 kids, and I had my last one when I was 26. Ended up having uterine cancer show up when I was 28 and had a full hysterectomy.

My kids were all grown when I was 46. I lost my 5th child and his wife in a car accident in 2020, which gave me their little boy he was 3 months old. He is such a blessing but I can tell the difference between parenting when I was in my 20’s and 30’s to now in my 50’s.

Arc Review

I don’t like spoiling as there is always a blurb on the storyline. What I can say, it has been quite a ride regarding The Verona Falls Riders. We were left on a cliffhanger and have finally got a conclusion here. Each male here - Jack, Ghost, Ace & Rook staked their lives on Camille. They each found a bond and a safety within each other.

So much happened here with the Prez being shot (Jack) & Ghost being taken hostage. What also went within the club was turmoil. Again, there is always a mole but what is also at stake for the insider?

Overall, Riders’ Reign was a closure full of holes that needed filling up. There were positive outcomes and also negative ones. Trades, death, abuse it was all here as expected. What was also here was a reunion between Cami & Gabi, families reunited and new ones forged.

A bond of 5 ❤️🔥🔥🔥 but expected from Marissa. A new route on Verona Falls where we are entering a new path with the Riders. So don’t despair, we aren’t leaving their turf at all.

It is also endearing how authors remember to add their prior characters within the reads.

The Devils - Vipers & Preachers were also present.

As an added bonus but to discretion of reader, Marissa added a free download on the night of “The Hazing” of Rook.

Looking forward to the next venture - Phoenix.

The final book in the Verona Falls Riders series ended things SO good! A dark and sexy why choose romance, irresistible age gaps, four dangerous MC men, and one strong mafia princess. It’s the perfect mix of danger, obsession, spice, and passion, and I loved every second of this wild ride!

This book literally picks up right where we left off in book two. After the horrific accident, the consequences are everywhere. Ghost has been taken, Jack is seriously injured, Rook managed to get away, and Ace continues to be the constant source of peace for Camile.

Jack, the president of the MC, finally admits deep down that Camile is IT for him, and he is so damn tired of fighting it.

Ace, this man is absolutely CRAZY and hysterical, but the peace he brings Camile is just perfect. And him constantly saving all the animals?! 😂

Ghost has grown SO much throughout this series. He's still the quiet one, but deep down, he knows Camille is it for him too. Watching him finally stop fighting it and fully give in was everything!

And Rook, this man is just a heart of gold. He absolutely adores Camile and would risk everything and do anything for her.

And Camile has grown SO much too. She stands up for herself, she speaks her mind, and she loves her men with everything she has. I love that just as fiercely as these men are there for her, she would absolutely run through fire for every single one of them. ❤️‍🔥

The chemistry and connection between all of them is SO strong. And the SPICE?! 🔥 Jack finally giving in, the chemistry between all of them, and the tension that has been building throughout the series… PURE FIRE! 🥵

Such a GOOD dark MC romance! ADD THIS BOOK AND SERIES TO YOUR TBR NOW! AND we get another spin off!!

Rate: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

MC’s versus Cartel

A great conclusion of the Verona Falls Riders trilogy, with Jack having been shot and Ghost taken, Rook steps up to coordinate things at the club compound and work out how to get Ghost back, while Ace is managing protection for Camile who has some ideas of her own.

With his near death experience Jack has finally stopped denying how he feels about the woman they are all in love with; and he's not going to let his daughter come between him and her best friend.
Ace acts like an overgrown puppy most of the time, saving everything from cats to snails (though he might need to move them if Jack's going to be round more often), he's chaos with a heart of gold and you can't help but love him (I know I do).
Rook has just been fully accepted into the club and is now stepping up and wants to make sure that Camile is safe from the Sanchez's while also getting a little revenge of his own.
Ghost is terrifying, stern and hardened; and he'll use all of his skills from the military to get back to the woman he loves and stop those threatening her and her family.

Verona Falls university is full of mafia families with secrets, dark steamy why choose forbidden romance (RH), banter, obsessive MMCs, age-gap, best friend's dad, stalking, kidnapping, murder, revenge, betrayal, spicy dark romance, suspense and plenty of twists - please do read the triggers. I couldn't put this book down and am so glad that this isn't the last in Verona Falls.

THE RIDER’S REIGN closes out the VERONA FALLS RIDERS trilogy with a 💥 bang💥— or three, a ton of quick thinking & butt loads of courage, epiphanies & revelations, reconciliations & forgiveness, revenge & maybe an explosion, and enough super hot, steamy, spicy, delicious, sexy times to soothe this dirty bird’s soul. It’s a perfect ending to a fantastic trilogy.

We're back in Verona Falls with The Rider's Reign, book 3 in the Verona Falls Rider's series. Camile, Jack, Ace, Ghost and Rook are right where we left them in The Rider's And The Rebel. And what a way to wrap up their journey! After traumatizing events everybody finally comes to terms with their feelings, Camile has finally found her voice and they get their happily ever after. Not that may sound like it was all neat and tidy but we all know these authors better than that. Nothing comes easy! They struggle and fight for what they want. Then we have twists, turns and surprises to work through. In the end though, we have one more fantastic journey! The Verona Falls Rider's has been one heckuva ride!

REVIEW
This book is the finale and its explosive, it finds us with a man in the hospital, a man taken, and Camile finding her inner strength for the men she loves.
Jack finally admits what he has felt for a long time...

Camile, Ace, and Rook, and the club know who has Ghost; they will burn it all down to save him.
An epic finale and tons of twists in this one.
This entire series has been a mind-blowing roller coaster of action, drama, and steam.

The conclusion to Camile and her men's story...
Well, I loved it! I'm so glad they finally got their happy ending!

I'm so proud of how far Camile has come. She has grown and become more confident in herself and her wants.
Ghost, Rook, Ace, and Jack, I honestly couldn't pick a favorite. They were all so different, but needed in Camile's life in their own ways.
I loved the dynamics between them all though. There was a bit of chaos, laughter, banter, and struggles at times. Regardless, there was love, tender moments, and they made a family.
I think the authors did another great job with the Verona Riders trilogy!

Review for the trilogy
3 stars

Interesting enough to read the entire trilogy but it wasn't effortless.

The fmc seemed younger than she was and her growth was minimal. Her reasoning was more in line with a teenager at times and that was annoying.
The men thankfully all had separate voices. It felt like the men could have had more depth if we'd learned a little more about them. We never got to see Ace mid animal rescue or release, nor the reason he was so invested in it. We don't know what happened to Ghost nor did he experience PSTD. I can keep going but you get the picture.
I really disliked Vani, and honestly, I'm happy I skipped her books.

Anyway, okay read if you're not too picky.

This is a fab finale and it brings Camille's storyline to a great close. We start up right from where we left off in book two and I loved following the guys as they grew and finally faced their feelings for her - looking at you, Jack! ;) Camille is one tough mafia princess and her courage was awesome. She definitely made her men accept that she has a say in her own life. Expect to be glued to your reader with all the danger, action, obsession and hot romance as you follow her to her fab HEA. So good and I can't wait for what's next by this author :D

I don’t understand the logic…

How can 1 be in hospital and one be k!dn*pped and yes she wants to get her freak on? 🤷🏻‍♀️ how can you be worried and crying and end up there?

I found this book disappointing, I loved book one and I managed book 2 but book three feels like it’s lost the plot a little bit. At 32% I’m questioning if I even both finishing or if I just skim to the end….

I thought this was gonna have more bite to it!

This is the culmination of the series, and it goes out in a big way. It is explosive and both in action and emotions. It all fits together and held me on the edge of my seat from start to finish. I loved how the characters finally realize how much they mean to each other and the lengths they would go to hold on to what is theirs.

Jack…I want a Jack for myself. I love Ace, Rook and Ghost…but Jack. There’s just something about knowing he’s an alpha but has such a tender side.

Vani annoyed me in this book the few times she popped up. Hypocrite much?

Ace and his rescues are precious!

Wait, let’s go back to Jack. 😊 I love that he let his walls down some. I love that Cami helped tear down more.

I’m sad this series is over.

Camille and the guys are back in The Rider's Reign, book three and the final book in the Verona Falls Riders series. This book picks up where book two, The Riders' Ruin, left off, and it is a fabulous ending to the series. This why choose, reverse harem, dark romance is a page turning read, and I loved every delicious page. I can't wait to read the next series by these very talented authors.

I had been chomping at the bit waiting for book 3 to be released and I absolutely loved it. This is one of a handful of series that I would read without even knowing anything about it because it is so good. When you find an author or authors that you just click with it is so nice. I am always automatically planning to read whatever comes next. Do yourself a favor and pick up a copy asap.

We start off where it ends, Ghost is gone, Jack's in the hospital and it take off from there. These ladies kept us in the edge of our seats on whether rescues would happen, and tears down our faces when some scenes came up. It isn't an easy fairytale in true Verona Falls fashion. Camille has her guys, but the road of figuring out if they stay whole is a wild ride for sure.

know she always does a 3 book set but I think this needed a bit more. Maybe since she had 4 men. Needed to hear more about her family and also that whole breeding thing in the end then she was on bc felt unnecessary. Also in this series her friend Duchess(forgot her name) came and hung out but she has a whole toddler that was never mentioned. Also Vani was a bitch

I have been eagerly awaiting the last book in this gripping series. I have reread this book twice and am beyond thrilled with the growth and strength of these dynamic characters.
This book had a bit of everything; suspense, danger, conflict, redemption, revenge and so much steam it is off the charts.

The authors did a great job of keeping the intensity of this series alive and addictive with this book. I was immediately hooked by the fallout from the previous book and couldn’t imagine how everything could turn out in their favor. The story was engaging, entertaining and emotionally charged. I devoured it with ease and loved every minute of it. Great storytelling.

Great series. Camille gets her hea with Jack finally getting in on the action! Adored Ace & his animals 💜 Good chemistry between them all. Not so keen on spanking scenes, esp when the girl says no, but was the only part I didn't like. Overall enjoyed the book. Next series sounds awesome already - can't wait!
