She's trapped.
I was a game piece in Trace Gamble's fantasy world, where he was king and everyone else was a pawn.—

He made a promise.
I will fight him for you, and I will win.—

What starts as one night of secret pleasure soon becomes so much more.

When Jericho Walsh was handed the Bedlam MC president's patch, he decided to find more legitimate ways for the outlaw club to make money. A job providing security for Trace Gamble, a wealthy casino owner, takes Jericho and his two closest friends to Lake Tahoe. Jericho soon finds that Gamble can't be trusted. But Jericho finds a reason to stay. Roxie Palmer. A terrible secret has Roxie bound to Gamble but Jericho has decided he's not leaving Tahoe without her.

Roxie Palmer has been stuck playing girlfriend to Trace Gamble for a year, and she hates him more each day. But if she leaves him, her family will suffer the consequences. Up until now, she'd accepted her fate of living in a loveless relationship with a man she despises. But Jericho Walsh, Trace's newest employee, has swept into her life with his amazing looks and dangerous charm, and now all she can think of is breaking free.

Jericho is one of those men who doesn't back down from a challenge, "yes, effing drag me, drag me all the damn way, baby, because I’m not walking away. And I’m going to tell you right now that I don’t give a s*** about what that guy tries with me. I will fight him for you, and I will win." When he appreciates something he's not afraid to let his woman know, "God, baby, you can just straddle me like this all effing day and night." He's all about compromise, "I do. Besides, I look forward to some of that courtship stuff. As long as we skip the formalities and go straight to the wild sex." I thought Gage was my favorite but Jericho knocked him right out of the water. I loved this book.

I liked this one. I really like Jericho. I was worried about reading his story because he was so "in love" with Evie. But it didn't seem that hard core to me in this book. Yea he said he loved her but he didn't harp on it and didn't fantasize about her or pine for her. He was just disappointed he didn't get her. And THAT I can deal with. I did like Roxie. She was in an impossible situation all for someone she loved, her brother. I wanted to hate her when she let Trace do sexual things he did to her...but honestly, I cant even fathom having to choose between pretty much getting raped or saving my brother. Very sad and a hard choice. Of course she made the good one and helped save her brother. I wish there would have been more at the end. Again it kinda just ended...I would have liked a little more. LIke what the hell happened to Trace, did the other MC kill him and why did he get away scot-free. I dunno...the Rain Shadow and Barringer Brother books I always just feel like I need something more at the end.

OMG!!! Once I started Jericho I couldn't put it down!!

Jericho is the fourth book in Tess Oliver's The Barringer Brothers Series.

The sex scenes are hot!! This book has plenty of twists and turns to go along with the friendships and love.

I love Jericho and Roxie!! Also how can you not love little Easton!

Another wonderful book done by Tess Oliver.

No cheating Hero! Yay!!! I love that. Okay, it was a good read, some drama but nothing crazy. It was actually tame compared to some of my recent reads but it's good if you are reading the series. HEA

I received an ARC of Jericho by Tess Oliver in exchange for an honest review.

Jericho is the last book in The Barringer Brothers series and like the rest, it did not disappoint! Jericho is now the president of the Bedlam Motorcycle Club, having become president after Draygon Sharpe died. He is very young, and really did not want the title, but since his father was part of the club and he was raised in the club he decides to go ahead and become president. After all the mess and terrible things Draygon Sharpe did to a lot of the members, including his own granddaughter, Jericho decides to change the way the club operates and wants to make money in a legal way, and leave all the past behind. This causes him to meet Trace Gamble, a man who owns a lot of casinos and needs protection and it seems all legitimate. However from the moment they get there it does not take long to find out that Trace is as dishonest as they come, and wants Jericho and his club for a whole different reason! And Trace does not care if they live through the job or not!

Roxie, Trace's girlfriend finds herself really attracted to Jericho but is afraid to let him in as everything is not as it seems, and she does not want him to be a victim of Trace's wrath, and she can't afford for Trace to get angry with her either, she has her whole family and their safety to worry about so she feels terrified and without any hope for the future.

Jericho sees her however and he wants her and he sees far more than she realizes, and promises her that he will take care of her and not let her suffer the consequences of leaving Trace behind! Jericho from the moment he sees her somehow knows this is going to be the woman he wants for all time.

As with all of Tess's books, the plot is amazing, leaving you sitting there from chapter to chapter wondering "how did that happen", or "oh my gosh I did not see this coming at all", and this is what makes her books so good, not being able to know or predict what is going to happen. All of her characters are well developed, and her characters have wonderful traits which make you love or hate them. There is always a lot of sexual angst, emotional angst and so much more.

Although you can read Jericho as a standalone, you will get so much more out of this book if you read the preceding books in this series; Gage, Cash, and Seth, as a lot of the characters are seen from one book to the next, and this is also a spin off of the Rainshadow Series.

Watch how Jericho takes care of business his way and puts a satisfying end to this wonderful series! I gave this book 5***** stars and can't wait for more by this wonderful author.

Overall Rating: 4.5 Rockin’ ★★★★☆
When life throws you roadblocks, you just find a way around them! In this the fourth book in the Barringer Brothers series, we finally get to Jericho’s story, or maybe the beginning. This has been an amazing series, written by a truly skilled story teller. Ms. Oliver weaves her words in such a way that the reader will always remember the characters she created, and also the lives she gifted them with!

Jericho has always been a protector and defender of women. He loves them and they love him in return. When you think of a true alpha male, you should think of Jericho. During his formative years, he lived under a psychotic MC. His best friend and first loved was the granddaughter of the Prez of the club. Richo learned early on how to protect her from the situation they lived in. So, when he meets Roxie Palmer, flags go up and his protective instinct kicks in. His club has been hired by her boyfriend to provide security, but is Roxie the one that needs protection?

Roxie has no choice but to do whatever Trace Gamble tells her to do! The live of those she loves is at stake and the only way to keep them safe if by selling herself to Trace. She cannot stand the man and recognizes him for who he really is, a self-centered, evil man that gets off on others misery. Taking care of her family was all that mattered, until a beautiful, bad boy biker walked into her life. How can she deny the attraction that overwhelms her when he is near? But the price she will have to pay for the pleasures Jericho promises, maybe too much!

It doesn’t take Jericho long to figure out that Roxie is his and he will fight to claim her. The man that she has sworn herself to cannot be trusted and his promises are worthless! Lines will be stepped over and true love cannot be stopped regardless of the obstacles put in its way. This is an amazingly unforgettable story that will keep you turning the pages to find out how it will all end! I would highly recommend this book be added to your library, it is one you will want to reread!

Kindly provided with an ARC in exchange for an honest review.....

GRIP.YOUR.SEAT.FOR.A.5.STAR.ENDING !!!

Woo wee, I have secretly pined for Jericho's book since the Barringer Brothers series began and his story did not disappoint !!! *Fans self* Dear lord he was one smokin' hot MC president !!

Quick re-cap.....Jericho has now been thrust into the president role of the Bedlam MC motorcycle club and he is drawn to Roxie. Unfortunately (or so it initially seems) she is Trace's girl. Pesky boyfriend !!. She too is VERY attracted to Jericho and she wants to explain that things are not what they seem, it just doesn't go to plan. Trace you nasty piece of work !! *say no more about him, he gets his !!*

Yet again Tess takes us one hell of a roller coaster journey for these two star crossed lovers to get to there HEA. Or do they ?....mmmwwwhhaaaa. Only joking.....for those like me who NEED a HEA.....they do indeed get theirs !!.

Roxie as a lead was fabulous, trapped with that nightmare of a boyfriend. Trying to do the right thing for her family. What a strong women who had firm values that she stuck to.

LOVED the passion between Jericho and Roxie...rarrr. And as with all of the books in this series, you will find yourself having plenty of "OMG what ?!" and "No !!! I didn't see that coming!" moments.

The true beauty of Tess's books is her ability to write such strong, believable story lines with equally as compelling leads and surrounding characters. Seriously for any-body who has not tried any of her books....please put them on your to read list. Tess is an phenomenal author and her books have never disappointed me !!. She is one of my favorite authors and that certainly is a big endorsement by me.

Moving on, Jericho can be read as a stand alone, but really these books are that awesome, spoil yourself and get reading the series.

5 I am so gutted this series is over Stars. But a massive well done for bringing to your readers an amazing series Tess !!!.

Later peeps xxxx

Unfortunately disappointing

I'm really upset because after all his scenes in the other books Jerrico was my dude. I just knew I was going to love his book. I didn't love it. The storyline was fine, but was inconsistent. In the earlier books. Jerrico went back to the MC but he wasn't president. In this book he was. So either some how he took over and it wasn't mentioned or that detail in the previous book was forgotten about when writing this one. Also, In Cash's book he was unhappy with MC Club life and it hinted at him thinking about getting out. I was also very disappointed with Friday not being the girl he ended up with after the long build up from the other books. It seems like there was no point in him "falling" for her at all. The quick "She's getting married. She couldn't wait forever for you" seems weird after all the times the story said she turned away EVERY guy that tried to hit on her. All of a sudden she's getting married. Last but not least the plot was too predictable.

This review is so bittersweet. While I am screaming 5 plus 5 plus to express my love--I am wiping tears knowing this magnificent series ended. My heart isn't happy!!
May be read as a standalone but I suggest reading in order of series. You don't want to miss out on each of these exceptional reads. A few minor details may be clearer if you have read the previous stories.( doesn't affect storyline)
Simply put °°°PURE PERFECTION°°° An absolute reader's delight.
Creativity and storytelling that surpasses all general expectations.
Characters that capitivate. Each role bringing life to the words written.
Emotion filled. Heart stopping action/ drama.
When a door closes they say another one opens. Well, I am sure that is true here. There will be more genius creations from T.O. in the future. You can't stop AWESOME!!!
Click now.. Don't wait.. Start at book 1... Treat yourself.
Oh!!!! Did I mention???? How hottt and yummy Jericho is???

Total triggers girls. The h is with another guy while with the H. He's blackmailing her to be with him and she hates him but there is sex with the OM while she's seeing the H.

Jericho is the president of an M.C. he's been hire by a wanna-be hot shot who owns strip clubs and casinos. The big-shot's girlfriend is Roxie.

I'm going to jump ahead and just say I feel conflicted about this series. The love scenes are hot and the characters a generally likable but I feel cheated out of watching and being a part of them falling in love. In addition, the abrupt endings lacking an epilogue leave me unsatisfied. So, to sum up. Ok for freebie but I wouldn't re-read.

I liked this book more than the others. I was a little baffled about how it just moved on from the way Jericho went from being madly in love with Evie to nothing?? But, it all worked out I guess.
I really loved Roxie. I loved that she put her family first and she was willing to sacrifice for them. I loved how she was so in love with her nephew. Jericho is definitely a hot alpha! Bad ass when he has to be but sweet at the same time! My kind of man!
This was a really good read and I am looking forward to the next book in this series!

After meeting Jericho in previous books I enjoyed this insight into his life. Still belonging to the Bedlam MC & being their president was a fun take on his journey to find his HEA

Jericho is president of an MC and his MC is being hired by a club owner to be bodyguards for shipments. The club owner is married and when the h first meets Jericho, she is sunbathing and undresses in front of him out of sight of her husband. We later find that she is unhappily married and basically was forced into the marriage to protect her brother (who is a bit of a loser), but still, this did not endear me to her.

If you are married to a controlling, abusive a**hole, why would you jump into bed right away with a huge guy who happens to be president of an MC? Anyway, I know it's probably just me, but she wasn't my favorite female character and I thought about taking away another star because of it, but decided not to.

Totally loved this read, my hero Jericho...this was a fast paced exciting hot story. I loved each and every character, Roxie strong willed and tough, she loved her family and would do anything to keep them safe. Along came Jericho and from the minute their eyes met across a crowded room, that was it!
I have truly loved this series, my only regret is that I did not read the Rain Shadow series first as this is before the Barringer Brothers, however......no time like the present....Tess Oliver is an amazing author, I have read a lot of her books and she is my go to when in a book slump as she never fails to deliver

I Was Provided A ARC By The Author
(Possible Spoilers)


I didn't think it was possible to love any of the guys more than Gage, but man was i wrong. Jericho has stolen my heart and taken the number one spot!

Jericho has put his time with Dreygon Sharpe's behind him and is ready to take over the president spot of the Bedlem MC.

To rebuild.

When Jericho and his club take a security job, helping Trace Gamble, they might have taken on more than they bargained for. Trace is a shady business man, and he might be setting the bedlam guys up to take the fall in his shady dealings.

Roxie is trapped. She's stuck in a horrible, fake, relationship with Trace, he holds her family over her head. Lies and secrets keep her from taking her family and making a run for it. So she stays and pretends to be happy with this man, who has slowly been ruining her life.

When Roxie See's the tall, dark, and extremely sexy MC President walk through the doors of Trace's strip club. She knows hiding her attraction to Jericho, while keeping up the perfect girlfriend charred for Trace might be impossible. Especially when Jericho makes it tempting to ditch her responsibilities and ride far away on the back of his bike.

Jericho fights his need to grab the beautiful blond, with sad eyes, and a broken trust for men, and take her far away, all the way back to Nevada. From the moment he locked eyes with Roxie, Jericho knew she would be his. Now if only he could get her away from Trace and whatever secret he holds her with.

I LOVED Roxie & Jericho. Their connection was explosive, and sweet and oh so sexy.

Roxie fought to protect her family at any cost. She's a strong, but some what broken women, who learns to deal with things life has thrown at her. She took care of herself, but also accepted the help and love Jericho gave her.

Jericho bounced back from the pain and hurt he went through when the Bedlem MC blew up. When his friends/family, moved on with their own lives. And he took his into his own hands to rebuild the club, and make a steady future for himself. He is a sweet, tough, takes no shit, funny and SEXY man, who when he loves, he loves hard.

Each book in this series just gets so much better. Action, sex, strong female leads and sexy alpha males.

This book was bittersweet to read. I totally wanted to devour it in one sitting. But.... At the same time I want to savor it. I've been with this series since the beginning. I fell in love with all the characters. I loved all their stories.
But Jericho has had my heart from day one. I couldn't wait for his story. And now that it's finally here...
I don't want this series to end!!... I'm going to miss everyone!!

Jericho really stepped up when he became president for the Bedlam's MC. Finally having Dreygon gone along with some of the old timers. Jericho wanted a better life for his club.
So... Instead of following Dreygon past. And how he ran his club.
Jericho set is own path and his guys followed him.

We saw a different side of Jericho in this book. Now that he's the president. He's not so young and carefree like he was in the other books. But his playfulness comes out here and there.
I'm not going to lie... I was a little disappointed that Kristina wasn't the one for Jericho. I really liked her and I thought they had a thing together. Don't get me wrong. I liked Roxie.
But.... I just thought Kristina would be "the one".

Roxie...
She put her family first & herself second. That's why she stayed in a messed up relationship with a guy she hated! To safe her brother. She never thought she would get her life back. She didn't see a way out of it.
So when Jericho walked into her life. She finally started to see the light at the end of the tunnel.
Jericho gave her the strength and power to take risks and try to bring the power back in her hands. And with Jericho's help.... She able to.

I'm happy we finally got Jericho's story... But also sad it's the last story in the Barringers Brothers Series. I'm so happy that everyone got their HEA.
I'm so excited to see whats to come from Tess Oliver. I can honestly say that she is my go to author. I really like all her books. Her writing flows perfectly.
And as a reader what more can you ask for.

Would I read more books by this author... YES! I would.

I've been with this series from the very beginning with each book bringing something fresh and captivating with it and although technically Jericho isn't a brother of the Barringer's as such, he still certainly deserved to have his story told and told well.

After his original club and home disbanded when the president turned into a homicidal maniac Jericho was cast adrift for a while living the nomad life as a biker, in this magnificent next instalment he seems to uncover that one intangible thing he never knew he needed- love, loyalty and a sense of permanence and that comes in the form of Roxie, our entirely selfless, suffering-in-silence heroine and the one consistency with Tess is you can be one hundred percent certain her characters are well structured, multi-faceted with immense substance and style. Jericho has this incredible sweet and loyal side to his dark and violent personality that only Roxie in her infinite intelligence and beauty and courage can bring out of him, the same as Roxie was resigned to living a life of pain and indifference before Jericho showed her what a life of love and happiness could be like.

"Are you considering the job?"
"Nope, now you've got me curious to see what the a*****e's up to. Besides-" Without warning he reached up and brushed his thumb across my bottom lip. My eyes drifted shut, absorbing the feel of his touch and making me want that kiss even more. I opened my eyes again. He gazed down at me. "I've just found another reason to stay."

It's not an easy relationship by any stretch of the imagination as Jericho and Roxie have to fight more than their fair share of battles to get their happy ending. It's an incredibly addictive story with great elements of dry humour and romance but with the humour and love come some more darker and uncomfortable scenes that give the novel a heavier more sinister edge. As always marvellous writing from Tess who knows her characters as though they were part of reality, she gives them an authentic voice whilst bringing the drama and violence to the storyline ensuring you can't put the book down again until you've reached the end.

Story type: Contemporary MC romance

Storyline: This is the story of Roxie and Jericho. Roxie is trapped in a relationship with Trace to protect her brother. Her brother has a son who has cerebral palsy and his wife is struggling with severe depression . Roxie meets Jericho (who is the president of the bedlam mc) when he is hired for security to escort money safely to places for Trace. It is an instant attraction and one that they cannot ignore. After stopping Trace and all the different schemes he has tried to get away with, they find a solution and their happy ending.

H rating: 4 stars. Jericho. He was sexy. I enjoyed his playful dialogue and he was confident and cocky without being a jerk.

h rating: 3 stars. Roxie. She was just ok. I enjoyed her relationship with her nephew and her loyalty/protectiveness for her family.

Angst level: minimal angst

Heat rating: 4 stars. Some significant sexy times between the h/H.

Descriptive sex: yes

Sex scene with OW or OM:

Cheating:

Possible Triggers:

Closure: There was no epilogue and an abrupt ending. I would say that it is a HFN ending because we do not get any glimpse into their future and I feel like there were a lot of questions unanswered...

I received an ARC in exchange for an honest review.

Although I liked the other books in the Barringer Brothers series and in the Rain Shadow books, I was slightly disappointed with Jericho's book. Jericho is now the president of the Bedlam MC and he decides his club should take a security job of transporting money between businesses for a man named Trace. He soon meets Roxie, who does the books at one of the businesses, a strip club. She is also the "girlfriend" of Trace, the guy who hired the Bedlam MC. Jericho and Roxie find are attracted to each other, despite Roxie being in an unwanted relationship with Trace, who is blackmailing her. Jericho and Roxie find themselves acting on the attraction and trying to figure out how their relationship will work out. Meanwhile, Jericho finds out there are ulterior motives for Trace hiring the Bedlam MC. Will Jericho and Roxie find their happily ever after and will Jericho be able to pull his MC out of the mess Trace has brought to his club?

Although I like having Jericho's story and seeing him fall in love with Roxie, I found that I had trouble connecting to both characters. This story seemed really rushed and I just did not have enough time to actually feel them as a couple. I also disliked the quick ending to the story. It felt like it needed a little bit more to the story. Even though this is probably my least favorite book in the series, I would still recommend reading it, just so the characters' stories will be complete. I'm looking forward to reading whatever the writer comes out with next.

All I can say is wow! I have really always loved leather the whole motorcycle guy persona, but never really had an appeal to the biker gang type, but after reading all of these books in the Rain Shadow book and now with the followup books The Barringer Brothers I have to say it has made me love these biker gang characters, in these books at least! In this book it takes us to the story of Jericho or Rico as close friends like to call him. he is the tall, muscular and too pretty for his own good now President of the MC Bedlam motorcycle gang. After the crazy president died it was decided that Rico take his place and he is trying to be a better president than the crazy former one, in doing this he is trying to do more legal business to help the club. His gang now provides security services to those who seek them out and that is precisely what brings him and a few of his buddies to the beautiful Lake Tahoe shores for business when a casino owner Trace Gamble hires them, only of course it cannot be that smooth right? There he falls for a gorgeous woman and from there all sorts of twists, turns and mysteries about why exactly they were hired for this job come to light. Rico is determined to figure all of this out and refuses to leave without Roxie! This book had a lot of testosterone in the air from the bad@ass fights to the emotional highs to the hot and sexy sex scenes. Get ready to get your motor revved because you do not want to be left in the dirt with this one!

This novel is another winner for Tess Oliver. As the last book in the Barringer Brothers series, we get a full story on Jericho, who we have already met multiple times throughout the series. I was excited to see Jericho find his happy ending.
In this book, Jericho Walsh meets Roxie Palmer when he accepts a job for his motorcycle club to work security for her boyfriend Trace. When Jericho falls hard for Roxie, he wants her for himself. He senses something is off in her relationship with Trace and is determined to find out what it is. Roxie wants Jericho, too, but feels trapped by her circumstances. The more she gets to know Jericho, the more she realizes he could be the one to save her.
I really loved this story. There were so many great things about it. It had several well-written action scenes. There was no love triangle; Roxie knew who she wanted. The main conflict didn't involve the leads being cruel to each other. Roxie was brave. She was a girl in trouble, but she wasn't acting like a woman in need of saving. Jericho was willing to do whatever was necessary to save Roxie, even if that meant sacrificing himself. Finally, the ending was a HEA.
This book is definitely a favorite that I will read again many times in the future.

**I received an ARC in exchange for an honest review**

Jericho is the latest installment in the Barringer Brothers series and I loved it!! Jericho is now the president of the Bedlam MC and wanting to take the club in the direction of more legitimate businesses, leads him and his two closest friends to Lake Tahoe. When Jericho and Roxie first laid eyes on each other, the attraction was immediate. The problem, she is the girlfriend of his new employer, the untrustworthy Trace Gamble. The chemistry between these two was HOT and when Jericho found out the truth about why Roxie was staying with the lying, scheming man, he decided to stick around to protect and take her away from him. I absolutely loved Jericho..he was sweet, sexy and an awesome alpha male. Him and Roxie had an amazing connection and were great together. Loved the development of their relationship and definitely enjoyed the steamy scenes. Good ending!

"I want you to be wet like this every time you f**king think of me. Just like I grow hard at the mere thought of you."~ Jericho

"Just one time, then you need to go." He didn't respond. My gaze drifted down to his massive erection. "O.K. Maybe twice. The night's still young, after all."

Another AMAZING book by Tess Oliver. I was given an ARC for my honest review.

I started reading this book and didn't put it down till I was done with it. I have been waiting to finally read Jericho's story - and is was worth the wait!!

Jericho is the new President for the Bedlem MC and is leading the club in a new direction from the illegal dealings Dreygon had the club involved in. This takes him to Reno to run security for Trace, a shady business guy. Enter the beautiful Roxie, she is the "girlfriend" of Trace and Jericho can sense that there is something not right with their relationship. They are both very attracted to each other - but Roxie is keeping a BIG secret and is trapped and can NEVER leave. Jericho has vowed that he will not leave Reno until he figures out what is gong on and saves his girl. He is not leaving without Roxie, riding in to the sunset with her on the back of his bike.


I am so sad that this is the final book in the Barringer Brothers series ... I am really going to miss those guys!

Jericho is the last book in this amazing series. I received an ARC for an honest review. I loved the story and the many twists that happens all through it. You can read this one as a stand alone book, but I recommend you read them all in order, because you might miss something important that led up to Jericho. Jericho finally gets his happy ending in this story and it's been a long time coming. His happy ending doesn't come easy, and he has to win the battle for the girl of his dreams. Roxie has been trapped in a relationship for over a year, but when Jericho walks in, her emotions runs high. How can she ever get out of the relationship she's in to be with the man, who turns her life upside down? You have to read Jericho to find out what the twist and upside downs are. Tess Oliver never disappoints in here amazing writing skills. If you haven't read any of this series, it's a must. Loved every minute reading The Barringer Brothers series and the spend-off books. Sad to see the end has come, but loved the ending with Jericho.
