Laynie

Smile when you’re happy, cry when you’re sad and don’t ever be afraid to try something new. These are the words I live by. We only get one shot at this life, and I intend to live the best one I can. I had it all growing up. Popularity, beauty, great friends and a perfect family. But then one day, it all changed – now I’m blind. I’ve never let that stop me though. Life is an adventure and I believe in making the best out of every moment.

I spend my days with a job I love, online friends and a sexy new book boyfriend every week. I know in my heart that someday, my own prince charming will come along and appreciate me for exactly who I am – I won’t settle for anything less. Meeting Tease seems like the beginning of my fairy tale … until he opens his mouth.

Tease

I don’t trust people – ever. Every single person I’ve ever loved has contributed, in one way or another, to the shit show that is my life. Keeping everyone I meet at arm’s length, I work hard at being the star of most people’s nightmares. People think I’m a monster and honestly – they’re right.

Laynie’s beauty is what caught my eye, but her personality is what held it. Laynie’s the only person to ever see past my appearance and break down the walls I’ve worked so hard to build. I’ll do whatever it takes to keep her. When things heat up with a rival club, and Laynie gets caught in the crossfire, I will unleash hell on earth to protect the woman who makes me want to trust someone again. When bullets start flying and bodies start piling up, keeping her safe may be the last thing I ever do.

***Note: This book contains violence, strong language and descriptive sexual situations. It is intended for readers over the age of 18.

Title: ➳ ❤ Tease
Series ➳ Kings of Korruption MC 2#
Author: ➳ Geri Glenn

⭐⭐⭐⭐
ღ we got a glimpse of Tease talking to Laynie, at the end of Ryker book.
♥●• “Beauty & The Beast” he the big scary, silent type & she beautiful & blind. Together what pair to say the least
► She’s outspoken strong type. He’s the brooding Silent One .somehow she brings out another side to him that nobody has seen before

💞. This series just gets better & better! I loved Tease & Laynie. Laynie is a tough strong woman who acted more mature than many older women.
Tease was in need of a caring female in his life.

Laynie had a tragic accident& lost her eyesight. She did not let this slow her down. She became a strong independent woman determined to live her life to its fullest.
Tease had the kind of childhood nightmares are made of & he has the scars to show for it. Usually Tease keeps to his self, until he spots Laynie while he doing job for his crew The Kings of Korruption




The characters will steal your heart away. Can’t wait to start the next book.
➦📚 Hope you enjoy this read & also always keep in mind this is just my opinion
📚 No cliffhangers. Very mature themes. WARNING: EXTREMELY HOT.

Tease is a member of a bike gang. He may be rough around the edges but he's loyal to his brothers, caring and vulnerable. He's a love 'em and leave 'em type of guy until Laynie crashed into his life. After his physical abuse by his stepfather when he was a little boy, he's facially scarred and disfigured.

Laynie is like an angel, blond with big green eyes. But blind. She's a sweet woman who lives an independent but lonely life. Tease is inexplicably drawn to her and tries to do the right thing. He tries to keep their lives separate until reality sweeps in and it’s impossible to do so. Tease is a brutally determined man, but he wins her over by being a constant in her life and a pillar of strength. He’s still an Alpha but his love for Laynie encompasses all.

I really loved Tease and his tough as nails attitude and his disguised vulnerability. He's a hard man as he has to be as member of the MC, but he also has his sweet moments and in the end he's the perfect partner for Laynie. He's a gritty, tumble, love to hate ‘em MC hero and an amazing Alpha male.

I was entertained, and there was a lot of action and suspense. I, also, loved the secondary characters in the story. I liked the progression of the relationship between Tease and Laynie and their sexy times were really hot!

When I read the very end of Ryker and we got a glimpse of Tease talking to Laynie, I'm not ashamed to say I did a little happy dance. I really liked the parts of Tease we got throughout the first book in the series and I knew his book would be amazing.



Laynie lost her brother and her eye sight in an accident when she was seventeen years old. Since then she has become highly independent and now helps counsel others who are in a similar situation as her. Just because she's blind doesn't mean she doesn't notice when the mysterious guy starts coming to the shop and sitting near her every time she's there.

Tease couldn't stop his feet from crossing the street and entering the coffee shop to follow Laynie the first time he saw her. Self concious about the scar that comes down his face he doesn't approach her, instead just watched from afar and tries to figure out what it is about her that intrigues him so much. Finally he see's an opportunity to talk to her and find out who she is. But just as he starts to get to know her there are problems with the Kings of Korruption and he may have to let her go to protect her.



I really enjoyed getting Tease's story and I loved his character as much as I knew I would. He was really rough around the edges but he had a vulnerable side that we got to see. It was the vulnerable parts of his character that made me love his and it really made him likable, whereas the rest of his personality was a bit of an ass.

I admired Laynie's independence and how she took something so awful in her life and turned it around to help others. She was the perfect person for Tease because they were so different but she was open to his lifestyle and was there for him to show him that his scar didn't define his life.



I am extremely grateful that I got to read this book early because it was killing me to wait for more Kings of Korruption. The book had some sad parts, happy parts, and some sexy as fuck parts. Really, it had everything I wanted. Now I'll just be waiting for the next one.

Overall Opinion: I liked this, until the end. I felt like I got jipped! I wanted more, and I didn't feel like I had nearly enough closure to be happy. I did enjoy it because the characters were likeable and there also wasn't so much mc drama to take away from the romance -- I just wanted more of it and maybe a larger commitment in the end.

Brief Summary of the Storyline: This is Laynie and Tease's story. Tease has been watching this mysterious beauty for a while now, and one day they bump into each other. Because of Tease's past he isn't interested in more than watching for now, but after an accident with her service dog they are thrown together. They spend more time together, and the attraction grows into love. There is some typical mc drama, some sexy times, and some sweet moments...and the couple get a HFN ending.

POV: This alternated between Laynie and Tease's POV.

Overall Pace of Story: Good until the end. The book is too short IMO. I usually only read books that are 200+ pages because a lot of the time I don't feel like I had enough of the couple, and I did get that a little with this one. I understand wanting to set it up for another book in the series, but the last section being about Jase and not an epilogue for the couple was disappointing. I never skimmed, and I did feel like it flowed well.

Instalove: Kind of. They both felt feelings pretty quick, but it wasn't the type that annoys me.

H rating: 4 stars. Tease/Travis. I liked him. He was a broody biker with a soft center ;)

h rating: 4 stars. Laynie. I liked her. She never let her disability get her down, and I liked where she called the H out when he was being a jerk.

Sadness level: Low/moderate. There is one sad scene that got me a little teary, but I didn't need any tissues.

Push/Pull: Mild

Heat level: Moderate. They had pretty good chemistry, and ok scenes.

Descriptive sex: Yes

Safe sex: Not really. Some mention of condom use, and some scenes do not mention it. No other mention of birth control or std status. No mention of previous practices either.

OW/OM drama: Mild

Sex scene with OW or OM: No

Cheating: No

Separation: No

Possible Triggers: Yes

Closure: This had not nearly enough closure for me!! I wanted more! I would call it a HFN ending.

How I got it: It was a loan from a sweet GR friend :)

Safety: Safe with exception

ALL OF THE DOGS DIE!!!! (well, almost)

First 5 seconds, the little boys puppy is murdered by the evil step-dad.
Then the seeing eye dog gets hit and injured.
THEN the military guy’s dog gets blown up by explosives.

JESUS F*CKING CHRIST – are we sure this stupid author isn’t the same person as Lani Lynn Vale?? This is the same awful shit she writes.

Why did I keep listening?? Because I’m a f*cking dedicated person!!! Here – let me tell you all the things that suck about this stupid book.

Laynie (virgin, blind, blogger) goes to the same coffee shop almost every day when a hot guy bumps into her. She loves how he smells and she continues to smell him every day. One day, she stops at his table and asks him out and he rejects her.

Tease/Travis (MC) has been stalking the girl that goes everywhere with her dog. He starts to think she’s blind, but he’s not really sure. When she stops to flirt with him one day, he decides she must be faking blindness just to pull a prank on him, so he tells her f*ck off.

When Laynie leaves the shop with her seeing eye dog, Dexter, they get hit by a guy on a bike and Dexter is injured. Travis comes out and takes them to the vet, then gets pissed at her again and starts to walk off. She chases after him and falls again. If she’s blind, why is she chasing him!! That seems pretty stupid.

Then she’s at home getting drunk and dials Travis up, who doesn’t want to talk to her, but she just keeps f*cking giggling. Well it wouldn’t be a story if she didn’t stand up, run her drunk ass into a table, drop her wine glass, and then slice her foot open. I honestly don’t know how she’s survived this long because she’s always running into stuff and falling!!!

Then she’s at the MC clubhouse and one of the skanks comes up to her and starts an argument. Of course, Laynie says she’s about to kick the other woman’s ass. Okay – I’m not sure how if you can’t see where you’re swinging and you’ve never been in a fight in your life. I get the fact that L wants to fight back, but blindness in a fight is a pretty big handicap. Nobody with common sense would approach a fight without taking that into account. Anyway – Laynie ends up breaking the skanks nose. Sure…. I TOTALLY believe that.

Also, why is Dexter always leaving Laynie alone?? He’s always wondering off to hang out with someone else. I just thought it was a little strange. Plus, Laynie is always looking around. What exactly is she looking at?!? Yes, she can turn her head towards a noise, but sayings she’s “looking” at stuff seems wrong.

Oh – after Dexter was injured and limping everywhere, Laynie decided to take him to the clubhouse. Seriously, he’s injured!! How mean is that!!!!

THEN – one of the MC members, Mouse, has a pregnant girlfriend he’s about to marry. What happens?? He gets his head blown off.

WHAT KIND OF WARPED WANKER IS THIS AUTHOR?!?!

You also get brilliant lines like, “Tiny gasps as he gasps for breaths of air.” So he gasps while he’s gasping??

Am I going to continue this series?? Fuck no. I love you guys, but not that much.

PS. There’s a MC book by Sam Crescent (which is one of my favorites) called Blind Devotion. The FMC is blind. It’s actually written excellently as far as that goes. When she moves into the clubhouse with the MMC, he takes her around the room counting the steps and describing things so that she can learn to function on her own (within reason). Knowing a blind FMC can be written both strong and intelligent makes this one all the worse.

Pretty simple storyline, nothing major happened or maybe I've read too many biker books so the storyline wasn't any different to me

BUT

I loved the heroine in this book, she was confident, feisty and strong. She was blind but still had a good outlook on life and she didn't dwell over the past. I'm just happy because the author didn't go for a weak typical heroine.

Laynie had a full and happy life as a teenager but then she was in a tragic accident and lost her eyesight. She did not let this slow her down. She became a strong independent woman determined to live her life to it's fullest.
Tease had the kind of childhood nightmares are made of and he has the scars to show for it. He learned fast to trust no one and to not let anyone get close enough to hurt you. He is a member of the Kings of Korruption MC and they are as close to him as anyone has been in years, but trusting is still hard.
Tease is working for the club when he first sees Laynie. He'd been coming to the coffee shop every day and she was there. He doesn't know why but but he wants to know her. No woman has made him feel this way before. Laynie is different and he feels it. Laynie knows the stranger is there every day but he never speaks to her. She feels his presence and just his scent makes her have feelings of lust. Tease just watches her work until finally they speak. Laynie doesn't know why the stranger is so rude but she is still attracted. Tease doesn't know why he cares what she thinks and why he wants to kiss her so badly. He knows he can't have the good that Laynie is because the monster inside him would destroy her.
Tease is an action filled romance that takes you on an emotional rollercoaster of ups and downs. Tease has been on his own since he was young and has not dealt with the devastation of his childhood. Laynie is an exuberant and has a positive outlook on life. She is more determined to live life to it's fullest. Both Tease and Laynie are believable characters and Geri Glenn enabled me to be able to feel their emotions and easy to relate to. This made for a fast read. The storyline deals with loyalties, friendship, and betrayal. Great read for me. Great job Geri Glenn! Can't wait to see what' s next.

** 3.5 stars **

Overall, I liked this biker romance featuring a blind heroine and a gruff tortured hero. The story was kind of fluffy and could have used more depth but it still entertained me. I also felt like we didn't see much of the hero's biker club family, I wish we would have seen more of that but I think we did in the first book (which I totally forgot the details of by now).

Now for my two bigger issues:

- Authors: please do not have a heroine in a biker romance reading biker romance (ever). And then using that as the reason she is okay with him being a biker and thinking he is "hot". Just no. It felt cheesy and hard to take her seriously. I do not think I know everything about a real one percenter biker club based on freaking romance books and a TV show.

- Can we agree to get rid of the term "book boyfriend"? Please? Both in books and on places like Goodreads, it sounds teeny bopperish and immature. I do not read romance so I can pretend the hero is my boyfriend.

5 stars! I loved this book!

This is the second book in the Kings of Korruption series. I am loving it. This book is a bit more gritty.
 photo image_zpshgtykdr3.jpeg

Laynie is a kick ass heroine! I loved her! She was absolutely perfect for Tease and his dark past.

The book starts off with a whoa!! WTF and then tears. Unless you're just heartless and hate animals. Then you won't cry. I'm a baby so I totally bawled the first page in.


I wasn't sure how this book was going to go because Laynie is blind but Geri Glenn totally pulled it off. Laynie is a strong character, her blindness does not deter her from anything. She comes off completely badass! I loved it. I love heroines like her and I wish there were more of them.

Tease becomes infatuated with Laynie while he was playing bodyguard for Charlie(book1). At first he doesn't know she's blind but once he does he totally goes to stalker status.


When Laynie finally approaches him, because she's well aware of his stalker status, he's a total dick. And that's how their relationship starts. He has his asshole tendencies and she's like wtf ever dude. Tease and Laynie are my new favorite couple. He was cute with her. She totally handled him. I could go on and on.
 photo image_zpsg68awpbp.jpeg

His past was horrible and the way she became blind. Omg. (Tears)


I'm just going break it down game of thrones style because that is totally how Geri Glenn described Tease. He was total Khal Drogo. I'm still drooling





The Kings of Korruption are in a middle of a war that started in book one, shit goes down and I'm once again a total mess. The drama is not done, they eliminated a lot if it but I can only imagine what's going to happen.

The book isn't all gritty, I laughed through a lot of it but it is darker than book one. I can't wait for Jase's story. He's up next!

If you like a loner, scarred hero, like your Beauty and the Beast vibes, like your heroines strong and fab, you're gonna love this book.
And I'm sooooo over the moon that I decided to give this series a try. I am loving it.
Laynie and Tease land on my fave couple shelf. I absolutely love these two!!!

This was a little too simplistic and unrealistic for my liking. Travis is a biker with a traumatic past that he gets over pretty quickly, Laynie is blind and has never been in a relationship despite being outgoing and beautiful. There's some motorcycle war stuff that comes across more as caricatures than as real people. If you're looking for a more fleshed out MC-type book, I would recommend reading Fearless instead, which is really the only MC book I've ever liked thus far (warning - it is long).

I was reading book one when I decided to take a little look into the blurb of the next book and when I see that the heroine was blind, I got super excited and I think that made me rush my reading of Ryker, I enjoyed it, but I was desperate to read Tease's book, and the fucker did not disappointed. I loveeeeeeed it so much!

Laynie, as she said, she was the total package, love her to pieces, she was an inspirational kind of character, a survivor. After a big change in her life, she did not give up, on the contrary, she got stronger and decided to LIVE her life no matter what.

Tease, he had a hard life. He as Laynie was a survivor, the way the author keep him true to himself, was perfect! He continue being the moody and quite guy and I flove him! He and Laynie were perfect together, their banter was funny and refreshing!

The drama, the little angst, and the steamy scenes were on point.

I'm really enjoying this MC series so far, I cannot wait to read more by Geri Glenn.

I'm waiting for you Jase!!!

This is book two in the Kings of Korruption MC Series. I've gotta say I loved this book even more than book one.

Laynies a fighter. After losing her eyesight she's fought for her independence. She's a bright ray of sunshine and tries to see the positive with everyone.

Tease is the complete opposite of Laynie. He's tough, dark and struggling to put his past behind him. When he sees Laynie he feels an attraction but he doesn't want to hurt her.

I absolutely love these two characters and as a couple they are super hot. Throw in MC business, twists and turns and the author has given us a great read. Loved it.

Tease (Kings of Korruption Book 2)
Geri Glenn
5 stars

Oh yes its more of my Kings MC. Holy Moly this one is a dozie! You all know I love Ryker Cole and Charlie but dang it if Travis “Tease” Hale doesn’t rock my socks off … I mean look at the cover. As you read you will also understand. Honestly though do I have to pick between all these men .. cause I will take them all.

First I have to address this with Ms. Geri --- okay so never kill a dog in your book when I am reviewing it. What saved me from throwing my kindle and trying to somehow rip those pages out ….. she redeemed herself with Dexter the German Sheppard. Crazy as it sounds .. kill all the people you want but don’t kill my animals! Now that I have reprimanded her .. moving on – I LOVE THIS STORY with the exception of the “one incident that shall not be discussed again .. ever by me.”

Travis “Tease” Hale wears his past on his face. His scars tell the tales of the horrors he endured along with his mother; the mother that turned away and let the horrific things happen to him. Running the streets after the final straw at age nine he lasted as long as he could. Tease had no family until Ryker found him in a bar and helped him beat the hell out of the asshats that were making comments about his face. The Kings have been his life for the past year. He has done everything he has been asked as a prospect including guarding Charlie with his life for Ryker. The only two good things that came out of that was making a friend in Charlie and being able to watch the beautiful woman who typed on her computer at The Bean across from Charlie’s work. Even after all was said and done with Charlie, being the creepy stalker he felt like, Tease came back to the coffee shop daily and sat a table away from the incredible woman just to see her. Thank hell this woman couldn’t see his face or she would be repulsed just like everyone else.

Laynie stops and smells the man she knows is sitting a few tables over. He smells divine. Taking a chance she stops and turns inviting him to “maybe tomorrow come and sit with her at her table with she and Dexter rather than a few tables away.” To her surprise what does Coffee Dick say … yes that’s her new name for him … not likely. Heading away from The Bean and her rude exchange with the man she hears people yelling. Dexter frantically pins her to the fence and all hell breaks lose. All she knows is Coffee Dick yelled watch out and now Dexter is hurt. Why is Coffee Dick helping her and how can he be so cold one minute and sweet the next?

I LOVE THIS STORY! Not only do we have MC corruption, murder and drama but we have continued story lines on Ryker and Charlotte. BONUS: This is a incredible story of two people who define all odds. Laynie has been blind since a terrible accident took her sight. She embraces life and doesn’t need to see in order to appreciate all the beauty around her. If only people would stop treating her like she is an cripple which number one person includes her mother and her brother Daniel. Tease knows he is a monster. Laynie is pure. If she could see his face she wouldn’t want him. He is a dark man and deserves to be alone.

We have everyone back in this book including a new character Mouse. There is also introduction of an MC member Tiny. The journey Laynie and Tease travel together is absolutely beautiful. The love .. immense. FANTASTIC! Geri you have done it again. We have been graced at the end of the book with an excerpt from Jase’s story. OHHHH BOY! ……
There is something big there to tell for sure. I cant wait! You can absolutely connect with the members of the Kings as the characters are so well written. Patch me in!

Geri Glenn has created a group of men and their ladies that I will anticipate and devour upon release of each new book. Next up Jase! Keep them coming Geri! I cant get enough!

Thank you for the ARC – WHOOP WHOOP! Review to post on Ramblings From Beneath The Sheets.

I must be honest and admit that normally, I'm all about the hero in romance. I know, I know, not being a good little very feminist here, but what can I say? A hot, sexy -- and usually for me -- alpha guy interests me more than the female. But I really liked Laynie. The accident that took her sight at 17 could have made her angry and bitter, but she's not only accepted it, but made a good life for herself. If only she could get everyone else, especially her overprotective mother, to see beyond her impairment. Her positive attitude made her easy to like and respect.

Tease joined the Kings because he needed to belong, and with his MC brothers he's found family, but due to his past, even with them he keeps a certain emotional distance. When Laynie accidentally collides into him he's drawn to her. He even begins having coffee where she does just so he can watch her. But he doesn't plan on doing more than watch her from a safe distance. Things don't go as he planned, however. I liked the fact that he didn't spend half the book trying to deny his feelings for her.

The book is nicely paced, and in addition to the two main characters I've already mentioned, has several secondary characters that are definitely more than mere filler. I'm hoping for stories for some of his other King brothers. Tease isn't overly dramatic, but still packs moments of emotional intensity. I even needed a tissue at one point, so be prepared.

I've never read Geri Glenn before, and I tend to cut some slack when grading debut authors and/or new-to-me authors, but Tease was a solid, enjoyable read that will have me looking for the next book in the series.

DNF 40%. Don't know how this book was rated so highly. There were so many inconsistencies & small things that annoyed me. Like, the heroine - who is blind - continually "looks" somewhere.

"I'd turned to look..."
"Looking for any sign of bumps"
"Looking back on it"
"I look around"



Or she dashes around (how? why?) and lives her life as easily as Daredevil (she remembers people through smell? Okay, lucky no-one buys the same shampoo) in her non-blindproof house. And the main guy is kind of a jerk to her, leaving her stumble around, fall, doing her own thing so that she feels independent (I get the idea behind that but she IS dependent).

Then there's the smaller things like early in the book Tease says, "I've learnt she was a writer, or a blogger or something" then later on the heroine confirms it by saying "I blog" and he responds, "Blog? What the f is a blog?". Which is weird in itself because if he didn't know what it was why use it like a noun? ("I paint" "Paint? What the f is a paint?" Makes no sense). 2 stars though for an easy read.

You know how when you read the first book in a series and then you dive into the 2nd and think it'll be as fabulous as the first, but then it falls flat? That did NOT happen here!! I loved Ryker, so my expectations of Tease were sky high! But he exceeded them and blew everything I wanted right out the window!!
I thought Tease was gonna fight Laynie tooth and nail on their attraction and he did, a little bit, but then he embraced and holy moly is this man steamy!!! Shew!!
Laynie is so fricking sweet and such a good sense of humor. After losing her sight, you figure a person would fall apart right? Nope not this girl! She's blows past depression and goes right into helping! She's simply amazing!! I loved her! She's probably one of my favorite female leads this year!
This book is action packed, full of suspense, romance, and some serious comedic relief! I loved it and I love Dexter!!
Now all I need is Reaper! That man! He gives me the warm tinglies!

5 sinfully sweet stars from NADBB!

I received an ARC for a honest review
I didn't know what to expect after "Ryker" - wasn't sure Geri could pull it off again. But the story sucked me right in, had sweet romance, suspense and hot, hot sex. It shows that trust, love and understanding are always a possibility and can overcome every obstacle. I loved the strength of the heroine and her outlook on life. The writing flowed right along and made me read faster and faster.
A definite must read!! Well done, Geri - hope for many more since there are a lot of secondary characters worth their own story! You're for sure one of my all-time favvorites.

I absolutely LOVED Tease and Laynie!

Tease had a horrible childhood. The flashbacks were horrible. Laynie is awesomely hilarious.

The way Tease handled her blindness was really terrific.

I liked the first book in the series, but it had a couple of triggers and it was not nearly as awesome as this book! This book really has no triggers (aside from general violence) (he had screwed women of course, but he was so standoffish it was not often or recent). Especially for a MC Romance.

The one club whore that mouths off, Laynie takes care of spectacularly!

Tease pushes away some, but nothing really bad.

omg! I received this as an ARC and this is my honest review.

Tease is amazing. Tease thinks that because of his scar he can't trust people and that he is a monster. His character is so well written that you love him and hate him at the same time. and man is he HOT!
Laynie is such a sweet smartass that you fall in love with her immediately. She has a disability but she refuses to allow it to define who she is. The sex is Hot! and steamy! Throw in a little danger from rival biker clubs and you have an amazing book! Geri hit it out of the park!!

Usually I fall head over heart with the hot alphas, but this time I fell hard for Laynie. She's spectacular. Smart and sassy and sweet all rolled up into one chick. She's blind due to an accident, but you never think of her that way. She grabs hold of life and Tease with everything she has and is just so passionate about it all including him. I love that she just completely blindsides this man who has seen and done so much, but never expected her. He is completely enraptured by her. I loved this grumbly delicious man. I so enjoyed their story.

I give Tease 5 hearts!

“‘You are the sexiest f@cking thing I’ve ever seen,’ he growls before starting up the motorcycle and driving back toward the road. My heart soars. He thinks I’m sexy! Well...I am. The man knows what he likes. I am a crazy, sexy b@tch, and he loves every second of it.”

5 I need more Tease stars!!! I thought I loved Ryker, ugh I was wrong….Tease is my new MC crush!

Laynie lost her eyesight in an accident when she was seventeen. She’s become very independent and now teaches other who’ve lost their eyesight as well. Tease has noticed Laynie for a long time and he makes it a point to go into the coffee shop she frequents and sits by her. And while Laynie is blind, she notices that there is someone always there. Tease keeps his distance because he’s ashamed of the scar that runs down his face. He finally gets the courage to approach her, but just as he’s about to do that, something goes down with his MC and he leaves her to protect her. There’s other problems that arise for these two as the story develops and trust me when I say you’ll be on the edge of your seat.

I loved Ryker so much, he was my favorite. Then I read Tease and now I’ve moved him to the top of my list!! He’s so sexy and fiercely protective of Laynie! Geri Glenn can write a good @ss MC story/series!! Each one makes you feel like you are a part of these characters lives and I loved it!!

I really really LOVED this book!!! Tease and Laynie as both such beautiful people. Laynie is has lost her vision due to an accident but she doesn’t let that get her down. She keeps a positive outlook on life and does her best to always look for the good in people. That’s why the first time she meets Tease AKA Travis she knows he is different. Tease isn’t a very likeable person to begin with or at least that’s the way he comes off. He doesn’t trust people and he knows that he isn’t much to look at but he is so totally wrong.

I loved Tease from the very moment he met Laynie. I wasn’t so sure about him in book 1 but after this book I can fully understand why he was the way he was. Tease has had a hard life but Laynie is the hope he has been looking for. Technically Laynie can’t see but she does see the good in Tease and knows that deep down he has had a rough past but he is a good person.

There are many things throughout the book that I didn’t see coming. A lot of twists and turns that both Laynie and Tease both have to face together. There were times that Tease made me mad but he finally saw the person he truly was deep down and that was all because of Laynie. This is a beautiful story from start to finish and I am definitely ready for book 3.

I received an ARC of this book for review.
This is a series that just keeps getting better.
Tease is the strong silent type. He keeps to himself but will gladly do what he needs to protect his brothers. He has not had an easy life and has the scars to prove it. When he sees the gorgeous girl in the coffee shop he is drawn to her and wants to learn more.
Laynie is a sexy little spitfire. Despite what life has handed her she has stood strong. She is a smartass and I love her. She may be one of my favorite characters. The coffee dick fascinates her.
As Laynie and Tease become closer the heat definitely kicks up. She doesn't see him they way he does himself and he sees her as a woman able to care for herself.
These characters have grown on me so when tragedy happens to the club my heart breaks. I cried big ugly tears in places and laughed in others. The emotional element is in these stories and I can't wait for Jase to step up his game and get to know his character better.

I really loved this book, the second in this series. I was completely satisfied, just the same as I was with the first book.
With Tease I wasn't sure how it was all going to play out after what a dick he seemed to be in the first book. Although I have to say I was extremely curious about his story after reading about him in book one.
Laynie is a hilarious sweetheart. She knew exactly how to handle a man like Travis and the chemistry they formed together was so sexy hot off the charts! I loved these two together.
I can't wait for Jase's book! I am hoping Ellen gives him a run for his money!!
Oh I almost forgot...as always with my reviews, I have to mention whenever I read a book from a Canadian author how Happy That Makes Me!!! My fellow Canadian Girls Totally Rock!!

Bahahahahahaha! These type books are my go to re-set books. Time and time again, I keep coming back to these alpha male biker insta-love books I find ridiculous. I understand they aren’t meant to be funny. I get that the authors intent is for them to be “hot” but they are so over the top ridiculous, I can’t help find them amusing.

It’s the same old story with different characters. He’s broken and broody and she’s independent and hot. He’s rough and mean and she’s sassy and sweet. He has an eight pack and she’s a bombshell. He’s never had a connection with anyone before her and she’s a virgin. BUT in this one, she’s blind!!! Way to change it up! Yeah baby!

I don’t read biker’s romance normally, but I wanted to try something new.
Do you know how hard it is to find a good MC book without sex-scenes of the H with OW?! Freaking difficult! I searched longer than I read the book!
But this one was really great.
I absolutely loved the heroine! And the hero was not bad at all.
It’s a pity that the next one in the series has the scenes I try to avoid…
