Ride to Nowhere

by Ainsley Vale

She doesn’t need to be saved. She needs to survive.

After helping bring down her ex-boyfriend’s MC, Tatum has a target on her back and nowhere left to hide except home to her brother—the president of the Iron Wraiths in Portland.

But hiding comes with a price: She has to pledge and earn her place among them. Something she never intended to do, especially not as his sister. During her pledging, the past she thought she’d escaped comes looking for her.

Corbin is the Iron Wraith’s Sergeant-at-Arms. He’s known as quiet and lethal. It’s his job to protect the club from threats, even when the threat comes from inside the club.

He’ll do anything to protect his club—and now, the new pledge he knows is “off limits”.

I was lucky enough to reciprocate an ARC copy of this book 🫶

I love, love Tatum! I think she is super bad A$$ with a you aren't messing with me and who can hold her own.
The way she makes Corbin beg 🥵

Corbin definitely doesn't take s#!t nor will he back down when it comes to those close to him. He need to protect is hot as hell.

The tension between these two 💦🔥🥵

That ending though, has me ready for book 2!

AINSLEY?! WHAT HAVE YOU DONE TO ME?! 😭🏍️🔥 BECAUSE THAT CLIFFHANGER?! OMFG. I NEED BOOK TWO NOW!!!

I have read A LOT of MC romances, but this one?! EASILY one of my FAVORITES. I was hooked from the beginning and could NOT put it down.

First off, OUR FMC?! SHE IS A TOTAL BADASS. 👏🏻 This woman fixes bikes, RIDES bikes, is a freaking tech genius AND has absolutely no problem putting a man in his place. Like HELLO?! THAT'S MY GIRL. 😂🔥

And the nickname SPITFIRE?! I LOVE IT.

The chemistry between these two?! THE BANTER. THE PUSH AND PULL. THE TENSION. 😮‍💨 I was eating up every single interaction. And when she said…

If you ever let her touch you again vor even mentions getting on the back of your fucking bike, I’ll cut her hands off.”

LIKE!! THE POSSESSIVENESS. 🥵🏍️

But what I loved most was that our girl isn't some helpless FMC who needs saving. SHE IS THE DANGER. And when they said she's basically the bomb that could blow EVERYTHING up?! EXCUSE ME?! 👀 The MC drama, suspense, obsession and chemistry had me completely HOOKED.

Ride to Nowhere by Ainsley Vale, Book 1 of The Iron Wraiths MC Duet. This is a Dark MC Romance following Tatum Thatch (Spit-Fire) and Corbin Hayes (Switch). 🚩This is for readers 18 years and/or older as it has mature content and is not suitable for underage readers. There are dark themes that can be triggering so please check out the content warning before you dive in 🚩

💭 My thoughts 💭
THIS BOOK IS SOOOO GOOD!! I am not sure what voodoo witchcraft Ainsley Vale used in her words but I am officially obsessed. The yearning in this book is wooow 🤌🏼 I haven’t read an MC Romance with the FMC being a prospect and I am here for it!!!! Tatum is independent, brave, takes no bs, will not back down and does not give up. Leaving a toxic, dangerous and abusive situation she goes back home where her older brother Lennox is the President of The Iron Wraiths MC. They know that the only way he can fully protect her and keep her secrets is for her to prospect for the MC. Enter Corbin, Sergeant-at-Arms and Handler of all Prospects and he’s got it bad for Tatum. Corbin is gruff, ruthless, trained efficiently from his time in the military and he is wow. He has a mouth on him that can make you blush!! Did I mention he’s pierced 😏 everyone loves a pierced MMC and Tatum is not the exception 🤭 Under strict orders from Lennox, officers cannot fraternize with any prospects but the way these two are drawn to each other…well things get a little crazy 🫣 This is a duet, like most duets this ends with a cliffhanger however, it’s not terrible. You are not left feeling incomplete, so do not let that deter you from reading this (book 2 is out Dec 1st) this book was captivating from page 1. So if you like reading Dark MC Romances where the FMC is a strong, independent hacker who drives a neon green Kawasaki and a brooding MMC who cannot keep his hands off the beautiful purple hair prospect….this book will not disappoint!!! I cannot wait for the next one because I already know it’s going to be a crazy ride!!!

✨I would like to thank Author Ainsley Vale for the opportunity to read and review Ride to Nowhere.

UHHHMMMM. I’M GONNA NEED BOOK TWO LIKE RIGHT NOW. (Respectively of course, BECAUSE HOLY SHIT).

I’m trying to get my thoughts together but after that intense, chaotic, spicy, heart pounding whirlwind I just went through, I’m just sitting here at 1am staring into the dark trying to process.

Reading this—I swear it felt like I was a part of the club. Now what type of member would I be, who fucking knows. But the immersive experience I just had—I’m in fucking awe.

I am utterly obsessed with Tatum. Her attitude, her stubbornness, her BITE, her sarcastic comebacks, her humor—she’s a fucking QUEEEEEEEN. But also, she called someone a “twat waffle” and that’s one of my favorite insults to call someone. Can I be best friends with her? 🤣 I immediately fell in love with her after that. Not only does she have a mouth on her, but she’ll kick your ass six ways to Sunday with a sinister smile on her face too.

Corbin—aka Switch—that man, I knew he would be intense but MY GOD. He couldn’t contain his internal monologue with Tatum around and I’m over here blushing and looking like I got sunburnt. He’s hot, commanding, and sooo down bad for the woman that gives him a run for his money. Does he have some red flags, sure, duh. Of course—but that’s immediately why we love him. The more we got to know him the more intrigued I was. He is ruthless and cunning. And has no qualms when it comes to making people talk.

The moment Tatum and Corbin met—I knew that it would be a goddamn explosion. Between their back and forth banter, the push and pull of wanting each other, their flirty moments, and it being forbidden—it got real hot, real quick. I absolutely loved their connection and their chemistry. The mouth on that man though 🥵 And the way Tatum decided to show her claim towards him—let’s just say “Damn, Woman”. But also, high five!

This story pulled me in so fucking fast and there was no chance of me putting it down until I was done with it. Little did I know, that it would rip my heart out and run away with it. Now I’m trying to figure out how I’m so patiently going to wait to see what happens. Because that ending, my jaw fucking dropped and I’m pretty sure my stolen heart skipped a few beats.

These characters, the plot, the absolute chaos of it all—I’m invested. I’m in it for the long haul. Obsessed may be an understatement. 100000000% adding a physical copy to book trophy collection.

Absolutely fucking highly recommend if you want something that consumes your mind and throws you into an MC world that you can’t get enough of.
•••••••••
I am so grateful and so damn happy to have received an early copy from @ainsleyvaleauthor. Thank you!

~The Iron Wraiths MC Book One~

"She's mine. I'm hers. And I'll grovel, crawl, k!ll, and burn whatever it takes to keep it that way."

Tatum aka "Spitfire" is running away from an abusive relationship with the President of a motorcycle club she wants nothing to do with anymore. She rides back into Portland on her green ninja, with purple hair and learns to make her way up as a prospect in her brother's MC gang, the Iron Wraiths. Upon her way, she meets a handsome officer in the club named, Switch, and boy does he give her a run for her money.

Corbin aka "Switch" is the Sergeant at Arms in the Iron Wraiths MC. And as an officer its strictly forbidden to fraternize with a prospect. Well it seems every sense of logic Corbin has gets thrown out the window the minute he sets eyes on a purple hair donning spitfire who rides into his life on a whim, and when Corbin finally realizes he doesn't want to let go, he is willing to protect his club and his girl at all costs.

Ummm, I need book two immediately because I must know what happens to these two!!

[Susan Stover · Rating 5 out of 5]

Ride to Nowhere by Ainsley Vale was absolutely an amazing read! Give me a protective biker, a stubborn woman, and a relationship that's going to cause all kinds of problems, and I'm definitely interested!

Tatum Thatch is trying to put her past behind her, but that's easier said than done. After everything she's been through, she returns home hoping to find some kind of safety and normalcy. Unfortunately, being the sister of the Iron Wraiths MC president means her life is anything but normal! I really liked Tatum because even though she's dealing with some difficult things, she still has that determination to stand on her own two feet.

Now, let's talk about Switch! Corbin Hayes is the Sergeant-at-Arms for the Iron Wraiths, and he's definitely the kind of biker you expect to put his club before anything else. He's protective, loyal, and knows exactly where his responsibilities lie. But Tatum makes things complicated, especially since she's his president's sister!

The attraction between these two was one of my favorite parts. They have so many reasons to stay away from each other, but that doesn't make their feelings disappear. I loved the tension and how their situation puts them in a position where following their hearts isn't exactly the easiest decision.

Something else I appreciated was that Tatum's past wasn't just forgotten because there was a romance developing. She's still dealing with what happened to her, and that makes her journey about more than just falling for Switch. I liked seeing that her struggles and her determination to move forward were important parts of the story.

And of course, you can't have a good MC romance without the club drama! The Iron Wraiths have their own rules, loyalties, and problems, and I liked how that added another layer to everything happening between Tatum and Switch.

This book has a little bit of everything I enjoy in a darker MC romance. There's suspense, complicated relationships, chemistry, spice, and characters who have plenty of baggage to work through.

Since this is the first book in a duet, I already know there's more to Tatum and Switch's story, and I'm absolutely ready for it!

If you enjoy MC romances with protective bikers, strong heroines, forbidden relationships, suspense, and plenty of tension, I would definitely recommend giving this one a read!

Check the trigger warnings before reading because this story does include some darker subject matter.

[Courtney · Rating 4.5 out of 5]

Well, that was absolutely UNHINGED. And I mean that in the best possible way.

I picked this book up and didn’t put it down until I finished it. One sitting. That’s all it took for Tatum and Corbin to drag me into their beautifully chaotic world.

Tatum isn’t your typical FMC. She’s fierce, reckless, stubborn, possessive, and just a little feral. She’s running from a dangerous past, seeking protection in the one place she swore she’d left behind. But some secrets don’t stay buried, and sometimes the danger follows you home.

Enter Corbin, aka Switch.

He’s controlling, dangerous, fiercely protective, and accustomed to being the one calling the shots. Unfortunately for him, Tatum doesn’t take orders particularly well. 😂

And the two of them together? Absolute chaos.

This isn’t the kind of love story where everything is sunshine, butterflies, and rainbows. This is raw, dangerous, messy, and unapologetically dark.

These two don’t just fall for each other. They clash. They challenge each other. They fight for control, push every boundary, and somehow find something worth holding on to in the middle of all that darkness.

And the possessiveness?! Let’s just say these two take the words “only mine” to an entirely different level. 🥵

What I really enjoyed was how the tension between the rival clubs mirrored the tension between Tatum and Corbin. There was never a moment when things felt entirely safe, whether they were fighting enemies or fighting their feelings.

And just when I thought I could finally catch my breath…

THAT ENDING.

A cliffhanger that left me staring at my Kindle wondering how I was supposed to just go about my day.

If you love morally gray characters, fierce heroines, possessive bikers, explosive chemistry, and romance that thrives in the shadows rather than the sunlight, this one deserves a spot on your TBR.

4.5 stars for a wild, addictive ride that I devoured in one sitting. 🖤

[Alicia Solarz · Rating 5 out of 5]

● This portrayal of an MC is the most accurate I've ever read. Most are an exaggerated & idolized version.
● This book? Not even close to that. While there is ALOT of action, Ainsley tells about the work, maintenance, testing boundaries, training, & conflicting emotions/actions behind what loyalty to a club truly means. It isn't action packed or "cool" all the time. There's so much more involved beaneath the surface.
● The relationships in this pull you in first. Everyone has very different backgrounds yet they've all become family. This is "found family" written at its finest. 🫂
● Having the FMC not be a weak helpless woman, watching her embrace the darkness from all she went through, find her strength, & pull herself back together is beautiful. She went through hell, yet stands taller than she ever has before. Everyone has a breaking point. It's just a matter of where that leads them... Tatum became a badass bitch. She still has deep emotions though. Love & loyalty being the biggest ones. The way she re-unites & repairs the relationship with her brother. Plus, finding love that is HEALTHY this time. Character growth at its finest as well. ❤️
● I could go on forever. Having personal knowledge of MC inner workings, I give a standing ovation for this book. This is the best representation I have ever had the pleasure of reading. 👏
● Ainsley Vale is very talented, does her research THOROUGHLY; commiting 100%. The descriptions made me vividly feel, smell, & see everything the entire time. This is the first I've read of her work done solo, but it won't be even close to the last! I'm hooked!
● That ending though?!? Diabolical. Cruel. 😂 That was the worst cliffhanger ever!

[Sammie · Rating 5 out of 5]

Ainsley, what in the world did you just do to my heart?! That cliffhanger left my jaw on the floor, and I need Book Two in my hands IMMEDIATELY!
​I’ve read my fair share of MC romances over the years, but this one instantly shot to the top of my favorites list. From chapter one, I was utterly hooked and couldn’t turn the pages fast enough.
​Tatum is an absolute force of nature. A woman who tunes up motorcycles, rides her own, happens to be a genius-level hacker, AND won't hesitate to put any arrogant man right back in his place? Sign me up. She is the ultimate badass queen. The nickname Spitfire couldn't be more fitting! I fell head over heels for her the second she dropped twat waffle honestly, can we be best friends?! She's hilarious, fiercely independent, and capable of wrecking anyone who crosses her, all with a smirk on her face. She isn't some helpless heroine waiting for a knight in armor she is the danger. That moment where she marked her territory and made it crystal clear what would happen if another woman touched Switch? Chills. The possessiveness was off the charts.
​And speaking of Switch (Corbin) holy heat. I knew he’d be intense, but this man had me blushing like crazy. He is dominant, ruthless, and completely undone by Tatum. He definitely comes with a few red flags, but let’s be honest that’s exactly what makes him so irresistible. The banter, the forbidden tension, and the explosive back and forth between these two kept me completely mesmerized. Their chemistry is pure dynamite.
​If you love Sons of Anarchy or Jax Teller energy (especially paired with body piercings!), Switch is going to ruin you in the best way possible. The overall setup a fierce brotherhood, high-stakes rivalries, dark secrets, and a woman seeking refuge with her brother's club (the Iron Wraiths) after taking down her ex’s gang makes for a relentlessly gripping ride.
​While the tech/hacking details were super heavy at times, it didn't take away from how addictive this story was. The suspense, the chaos, and the raw emotion completely consumed me.

[Danni · Rating 4.5 out of 5]

Did someone say Sons Of Anarchy vibes??
Ride To Nowhere immediately had my attention from the beginning.

Biker gang, brotherhood, loyalty, morally grey men and complicated secrets... Yes Pleeeeeease!

First an foremost theres Switch who immediately gave me Jax Teller vibes and honestly that made him a little more appealing.
As someone who absolutely loves Jax Teller and SOA, a charcter who reminds me of him is definitely grabbing my full attention from the beginning... And that's before the piercings.

Then we have Tatum, who might be a damsel in distress but she's not waiting for someone to swoop in and save her after she single handedly took down her ex-boyfriends biker gang Redline Revenant.
They also happen to be the rival gang to the Iron Wraiths run by none other than her brother Lennox. And Switch? Oh... He's the Sergeant At Arms.

Tatum has a target on her back, nowhere to go and no one to turn to except for her brother but finding refuge comes with it's own set of rule, having to earn her spot in the Iron Wraiths and being completely off-limits.
But we all know forbidden territory is always more interesting but is it worth the risk??

I absolutely devoured this but Tatums hacker side felt a little too heavy for me at times but overall it was awesome.

If you love SOA, Jax Teller or simply those vibes then you might enjoy this as much as I did.

Honestly this is the first book I've read solely written by Ainsley Vale and it was great. Can't wait for part 2.

[Sarahreadsallthebooks · Rating 5 out of 5]

Who doesn’t love a MC romance? Rough, brooding men who would burn the world down for their women (or men)! Yes please!

Ride to Nowhere is book one in the Iron Wraiths MC series. It’s a forbidden, forced proximity, secret identity, pierced FMC and MMC, MC romance.

After taking down her abusive boyfriend’s MC and going on the run, Tatum turns to the only person she knows will truly protect her from the fallout, her brother Lennox, President of rival MC the Iron Wraiths. Not looking for an easy ride Tatum wants to pledge to the club and hide who she really is.

Corbin aka Switch, the clubs Sergeant-at-arms is tasked with putting Tatum through her paces, but can’t help but be drawn to the sassy biker with all the secrets, despite her being strictly off-limits. When the rival MC comes looking for its ‘property’ Corbin will do everything to protect his club and the woman he’s falling for.

I loved this book, it was action from the get go, such a page turner and so much tension and spice between Tatum and Corbin. It was also a nice change that the FMC was a biker and part of the club and not some damsel in distress, we love a woman in male fields!

This book ends on a cliffhanger so be warned. I can’t wait to read book two to find out what happens next…

[TheCaffeinatedTBR · Rating 4 out of 5]

Overall ⭐⭐⭐⭐ | Spice 🌶️🌶️ 🌶️.5

I am still completely reeling from that cliffhanger ending, and I honestly need the next book immediately!

I don’t usually reach for biker romance, but Ride to Nowhere by Ainsley Vale completely captivated me from the very first page. As someone who is relatively new to the biker dark romance subgenre (I think this is only my third one), I was so pleasantly surprised by how easy the world-building was to understand and follow. The pacing was absolutely spot on, with just the right amount of momentum to keep me hooked.

There is definitely spice sprinkled everywhere throughout the story. While it doesn't dive into anything overly kinky, the chemistry, passion, and raw desire between the characters are entirely electric and feel so genuine. I did have a little bit of trouble with the MMC at times, though. He starts off as your typical hard, broody macho alpha, but there were a few chapters where he suddenly started acting like a total lovesick puppy, which felt a tiny bit out of character for him.

That being said, the overall ride was incredible, and that final twist left me totally hanging. If you love dark, high-stakes tension and broody alphas, you definitely need to add this one to your TBR!

[Ryland · Rating 5 out of 5]

Don’t let the title fool you — A Ride to Nowhere is one wild ride. So hang on tight, Spitfire. This story is high-octane and has its hand on the throttle full blast and never lets up. Tatum is one sexy, smart-mouthed biker who’s on the run and off limits. Corbin’s the Sergeant at Arms who’s supposed to be all business while she prospects for the Iron Wraiths. Once she opens that mouth of hers, that man’s restraint goes up in flames. Ainsley writes a story that’s got a plot that’s plotting the whole damn time and spice that’s absolutely forbidden and delicious. With the walls closing in on her secrets and Redline on her tail, will her and the club she’s run home to make it out whole and alive? Is there an HEA for Corbin and Tatum? We’re just gonna have to wait for book two because, good lord, that cliffhanger you are left on will have you reeling! If you love dark MC romance that’s got you on the edge of your chair the whole time and spice that will leave you panting and wanting more, then definitely go grab your copy now.

Ainsley Vale has captivated me with her writing! This is my third book from her and as soon as I have time I will be devouring all her work!!! She writes stories with passion, obsession, and amazing tension!
Tatum is running from a bad situation and ends up with the Iron Wraiths as a prospect. Corbin, Switch, is the sergeant at arms for Iron Wraiths. The tension between the two is high from the beginning, but she is a prospect, so she is off limits! As the tension tightens, so does the suspense as her old club, The Redline Revenant, finds her and is ready to take down all of the Iron Wraiths to get her back. And the secrets just keep coming! I am in love with Tatum, she is a bada$$ and just a little bit crazy! And Corbin loves her crazy! On top of a top notch story line the spice in this book is magnificent! Thank you to Ainsley Vale for the arc, I can’t wait for book 2!

holy cliffhanger

Ainsley Vale I need you to get back here right now and give me book 2! That ending?! I was sat in stunned silence…my own fault for not paying attention to where I was in the book.

I am obsessed with Tatum. After running away from her ex boyfriend and turning him & his club into the DEA, Tatum runs to the only place she think will be safe and the only person she trusts, her brother and his mc club. She is fierce, and won’t let herself be pushed around. Keeping her identity secret from the other members turns out to be tricky. Especially when Switch ( the sgt at arms of the iron wraiths) decides “she is mine”.

He knows she has secrets and tries to not get attached/involved but the chemistry between the two is actually insane. This book is hot…..so darn hot. And my word the drama! The tension! I love Switch and Tatum together but I also loved the relationship between Tate and her brother Lennox. I devoured this book and seriously need book 2 as soon as possible.

[mystical_reads_booknook · Rating 5 out of 5]

What a wild ride-pun intended.
I mean, I truly don’t know where to start.
This book was thrilling and exhilarating and kept me on the edge of my seat.
Fresh out of the gate, at the very beginning, it started with a HUGE bang. I loved how every chapter gave us something. There wasn’t a single second of this book where I was not fully enthralled. I mean truly and utterly captivated by every word, on every page, in every chapter.

Tatum is such a badåss FMC seriously. And Corbin is EVERYTHING! When readers say they want an obsessive MMC, that’s Corbin. Every chance he got, he was feening. 🤣

The non-main characters were amazing too. I’m particularly partial to Judge and Len!

I mean the plot was perfect.
The spice was spicy.
The yearning was heavy.
The banter was witty and comedic.
The ending… was diabolical.

I have NO NOTES, and I’m excited for the next one because that cliff hanger was intense.

Early Access ARC Review

I’m obsessed , I’m spiraling!!!

We meet Tatum in chapter one, she makes a life changing decision and there is no turning back. She runs to the only person she can trust now in the hopes that he would actually help her out. She asks for complete secrecy for her true identity, so of the bat we know how secrets can be revealed and things go down hill from there. Tatum is so strong and she can completely hold her own.

In comes Corbin, the moment he sets eyes on Tatum it’s a wrap! He knows she’s hiding something but the attraction and the chemistry between them is so much from the beginning that they can’t help it and give in.

The smut is smutting, their chemistry is fire. The jealousy the possessiveness is chefs kiss specially since it goes both ways they’re so territorial of one another.

That ending ended me I NEED to know what happens next!!!!

Easy ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ and a reread for me!!!

Thank you sooo much for this Early Access ARC!!!!

[momof3lovesbooks · Rating 5 out of 5]

First off I need to shout out… I NEED THE NEXT BOOK!!!!!
First time reading a Ainsley Vale book and omg it was so so so good, I couldn’t put it down.
Starts off with Tatum running away from a MC charter club, with nowhere else to run to other than her brother, the president of the Iron Wrath’s.
She tells him she wants her identity kept hidden from the club, that she wants them to trust her without knowing she’s the pres sister. Lennox (pres) asks Corbin (SGT at arms) to vouch and look out for her.

Corbin tries to stay away from her but their connection is too strong, with more secrets coming out and attacks on the club was never ending drama.

This book was amazing, with the drama, suspense with the romance and spice I couldn’t put it down, and now I need the next book… yes it leaves you on a cliff hanger.

What a book!!! I could not put it down!!! It was one of those books 📚 that you want to just stay up and binge read!!! It was absolutely amazing. I loved Tatum and how she becomes a prospect in the Iron Wraith MC - Portland after everything she went through prior.

The banter and sassy from Tatum and between Corbin AKA Switch ( road name) the forbidden 🚫 interactions between them, because you can’t date a prospect!! They are off limits!!! She may be off limit but it doesn’t mean he won’t burn the world if someone touches her!

The Possessiveness they both get over each other when someone else goes near there person was amazing to eat and the blood scenes 🥰🥰🥰 the claiming scenes ❤️❤️ be prepared!!!!

Well first of all this book deserves infinite stars but alas I can not rate it like that. Anyways! I'm obsessed with this book! Ainsley's writing is some of my favorite and she absolutely slayed hands down with how bad a** Tatum was. The nickname Spitfire is the most accurate one ever given. So full of sass, determination, stubborn streak that never dies and her mouthyness was perfection. Normally mouthy FMC's annoy my soul but Tatum was the perfect kind and I loved it. Then Corbin, oh Corbin,Corbin,Corbin. Who doesn't love a bruting MMC whose darkness peaks your curiosity, loyalty that's undying, possessive and obsessed nature who makes you want more, and a man who would burn the world down and crawl to you too. Oof. The cliff hanger of war to come has me dying for book 2 already. Gimme more! My gawd I'm in love.

[Beatriz · Rating 5 out of 5]

“She’s mine. I’m hers. And I’ll grovel, crawl, kill, and burn whatever it takes to keep it that way.”

Don't you just love it when a man falls fast and hard?? Well, I do, and Corbin is THAT man.

Tatum needed help after making the wise choice to leave, but she just didn't know she'd find a man willing to burn the world for her.

Corbin fell hard, all right? He was claimed by her, and all he could think was, “More, I want more.” (I LOVE HIM.)

And even though he knew she was keeping secrets from him, he couldn't care less. He needed to protect her. He needed to love her. He's hers.

I 10000% LOVED this book and can't wait to read Nowhere to Fight!

Thanks so much for the ARC opportunity!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️.5

Book one of The Iron Wraiths MC


This is my 3rd book by Ainsley and I have to say I will continue to read anything she writes.

This story is full of tension, hate, stolen touches and blood.
When an Old lady runs, just know you won't get far without being chased.

But running to the past, everything you originally left behind. Is it a new start. Even if it means war?

Our FMC is Strong and knows how to hold her own.
The MMC is a Sargent in arms, high in the MC chain of command.
They both know what they want, but at what cost!

I can't wait to see how it all ends in book 2!


This book contains some Trigger and I'd recommend checking them first as your Mental Health Matters.

I- I have absolutely no words for what that was! I am literally processing it! The last 5 chapters literally zoomed through me into chaos and that cliffhanger... I screamed so hard internally nearly pulling of my hairs😶‍🌫️😶‍🌫️
That was not a story, it was a whole new world ready for war! This book had left me breathless in a way I might forget what is Oxygen 🙃🫣
Corbin and Tatum's story was completely captivating from the very beginning, they had this "you die, i follow right behind" or "you can only die by me" sort of energy that made me read this with a thrill! Each and every single chapter was not for the weak but for the one that survived in underground tunnels or the worst of torture. I need more like right now! I want to know who go boom😭

Tatum leaves her abusive ex and calls on her brother for help, her brother is the president of the Iron Wraiths MC and her ex is with a rival MC. Her and her brother decide to keep their relationship a secret and she has to prospect for the club in exchange for their help. Tatum is a computer genius, she’s a bike mechanic and she rides her own bike, she’s captures the attention of Switch, the MC’s sergeant at arms and they start a relationship even though they shouldn’t. The rival MC come looking for her but the Iron Wraiths won’t give her up. This book ends on a cliffhanger, is full of danger,family, banter, loyalty and love. Recommend to everyone.

His Spitfire is the PERFECT nickname for Tatum because that girl is a whole badass! The tension and the pull toward each other had me SCREAMING for these two to finally give in! The chemistry is EVERYTHING. 😩

And can we talk about the fact that this is officially my FAVORITE MC romance?! It’s giving Sons of Anarchy, and I am SO HERE FOR IT! 🏍️🖤

BOOK TWO, WHERE ARE YOU?! I NEED MORE! 😭

This book was incredible. I loved it. Tatum and Switch were straight chaos and sexiness and passion from the get go. But it wasn’t bizarre instalove, his desire to protect her was genuine. They had a true connection that was evident. Tatums relationship with her brother and their loyalty to eachother was so powerful. I loved this club. I loved the background characters. I loved the banter. I laughed. I but all my nails off due to the anxiety in the plot. It was soooo good. I cannot wait for book two.

This book has it ALL:

✅️ Bad-ass FMC
✅️ Possessive MMC
✅️ MC club
✅️ Hair washing
✅️ MMC trains FMC
✅️ (This one you will have to read to find out)🥵🥵🥵❤️❤️❤️

It's been a while since I devoured a motorcycle club book. This one consumed my every moment.

Tatum is a strong-willed woman. She has the skills to accomplish anything and refuses to let anyone stand in her way. She'll beat the s#!t out of anyone who wants to mess with her!

Corbin will burn the world for her as he stands at her side. He protects what is his and makes sure she can protect herself. 🥵

I was immediately sucked into this story. The characters are amazing. The tension is 🔥. The twists are completely unexpected. The ending has me salivating for book 2.

I really enjoyed Ride to Nowhere by Ainsley Vale! 🏍️🖤

Tatum was strong, independent, and fearless, and I really liked her character. Switch was an interesting love interest too, and I enjoyed the tension and chemistry between them.

The MC drama, brotherhood, forbidden romance, and suspense kept me hooked. I especially liked the banter and watching their relationship develop, although a few parts felt a little slow.

That cliffhanger definitely made me curious about what happens next, but I hate waiting for the next book! 😭

🖤 Thank you to the author for the ARC!

FREAKING LOVED THIS BOOK! Ainsley had me hooked from the start because she doesn't give us any time to take a breath after we cannon balled into this. Lol we are given betrayal, dark romance, and a pierced MMC all wrapped up in one. But are turning every single page to know what happens between Switch and Tatum. And they have become one of my favorite couples because they put a twist of their own on this story. With not only a pierced MMC but pierced FMC but Im not saying where heeheehee! I cannot wait for book 2 because I NEED SOME ANSWER AINSLEY!

“You’re mine. I would burn the f$&@ing world to ash if it meant I got to keep you.”

This book was SO GOOD. If you love Sons of Anarchy vibe with an absolute badass and smart FMC along with a perfection of a MMC who’s hard on the outside with a hidden softness on the insife then please go read this book! It was fast paced from start to finish and action packed. I had a hard time putting this one down and enjoyed every minute. Can’t wait for the next book! Solid 5 stars ⭐️
